Unveiling Angelina Jolie’s Rarely Seen Moments Intimate Glimpses into the Star’s Private Life

Why do we keep seeing the same images of her over and over?

We’re so impressed with Angelina Jolie, the actress, director, and activist, that we’ve followed nearly every move she’s made (and every outfit she’s worn) over the past couple of decades. It also means we’ve become very, very familiar of certain photos of her—in her scribbled-on wedding dress, wearing the famously high-slit gown, you know the ones. But today, we thought we’d round up those images of her we’re not so familiar with, that give us a more candid or unexpected view of Jolie instead. Check out our favorites here.

Angelina Jolie was born on June 4, 1975. Here she is at just 4 hours old with her father, actor Jon Voight.
