Shiloh Jolie-Pitt stepped out with a bold new look in New York earlier this week. Joining her famous mother, Angelina Jolie, for an outing, the teen was sporting a freshly buzzed head.
The 17-year-old kept the rest of her look casual with a cropped graphic t-shirt layered over-top of a gray long sleeve plus baggy black pants. Angelina also opted for a simple black look. The mother-and-daughter duo weren’t interested in stopping for the cameras, as they dashed away from the onlooking photographers.
It was unclear where they were headed, but they weren’t accompanied by any other family members.

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Shaves Her Head Amid Reports Brad & Angelina’s Custody Battle Is Taking A Toll On The Kids
Shiloh is one of six children Angelina shares with her ex-husband Brad Pitt. They also share Maddox, who is 21 years old, Pax, aged 17, Zahara, who is 16, as well as twins Knox and Vivienne, both 13 years old.
The former couple split in 2016 after a dispute on a private jet, though their divorce wasn’t finalized until 2019. To this day, however, they remain engaged in a number of legal battles, including over custody of their minor children.
Angelina retains primary custody and has allegedly wanted to keep Brad from the kids altogether. She’s also made a series of abuse accusations against her ex, including that he’s gotten physical with some of their older kids.
In response, the actor has been fighting to gain equal custody rights to the kids. He’s also denied many of her accusations.
It appears the years of arguing over custody is taking a toll on the children – and likely their relationships with both parents. According to a recent report, the kids have been begging Angelina to stop pursuing full custody.

Speaking to Radar Online earlier this month, a source revealed, "Angelina doesn't want to let her fight for sole custody go, but the children are growing up, and even they tell their mom it's time to stop.”
The insider added that most of the children are “fine” with Brad and would be okay with him having more than just visitation rights. However, the source admits Brad’s relationship with Maddox remains tenuous. “Maybe the exception of Maddox, they all actually like him,” they said.
The source also said that Angelina is the one who refuses to let the custody battle go. "Brad would have settled things a long time ago, and at this point he's spent millions on legal fees. They both have,” the insider went on. “The situation is ridiculous.”
Brad was temporarily granted joint custody in 2021, only for Angelina to successfully appeal the decision. Her ex-husband now reportedly only has visitation rights to their minor kids.
As for their children who’re older than 18, the custody arrangement doesn’t apply to them. So, it’s their decision how often they want to see their famous father.
In addition to their custody dispute, Brad and Angelina are also embroiled in a lawsuit over the winery they once owned together. Brad claims Angelina sold her shares without his knowledge or consent, and with the intention of hurting his reputation. For her part, Angelina denies the allegations, saying her ex left her no choice when he refused to buy her out. The case remains ongoing.
