Claim: Angelina Jolie is “Forcing” Shiloh to Dress Like a Boy

“Angelina’s Forcing Shiloh’s Boy Obsession,” blares Life & Style in a story that alleges Angelina Jolie has carefully designed daughter Shiloh‘s tomboy style.
The mag, citing supposed family insiders, asserts Jolie is “the one pushing Shiloh to wear boys’ clothes,” because the actress wants to further the image of a diversified family.
As for Jolie’s recent comments to the press about her daughter’s evolving style and how it’s been Shiloh’s choice to take on a more boyish look, the mag dismisses it all as a lie.
“It seems Angelina is on a mission to show the world what an individual Shiloh is,” adds one of the so-called insiders. “But using the kids for publicity is sick.”
And, warns the tabloid, “forcing a four-year-old girl to wear boys’ clothes and get a short haircut could be deeply harmful.”
Surely not as harmful as a tabloid hell-bent on using kids for publicity and criticizing families rather than just letting them be.
Still, Gossip Cop investigated the tab’s claim, and we’ve found no reason to doubt Jolie when she says (as she did to Reuters in July), “I think [Shiloh] is fascinating, the choices she is making. And I would never be the kind of parent to force somebody to be something they are not. I think that is just bad parenting.”
Seems like Life & Style knows little about style and even less about life.
