Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's daughter reveals new name after secretly being cast in music video
Brangelina’s 19-year-old daughter was cast in a music video without directors knowing about her Hollywood lineage as she used a stage name.
Shiloh Jolie was hired by the management team behind K-pop star Dayoung as a backup dancer in the 'What’s a Girl to Do' music video.
The team behind the production claim that they had no idea who her A-list parents were as the teenage dancer used the name Shi, an alias she had performed under in the past.
Angelina’s eldest biological child got the gig by attending an audition with her dance crew and nailing it.
The pop star's team had no idea who Shiloh was
In a statement to South Korean newspaper Maeil Business Newspaper Star Today, a Starship Entertainment rep said: "We held an open audition in the United States of America to cast performers for Dayoung's music video.
“Among those who took part were several performers affiliated with a dance crew called 'Culture."
"Even after filming, we had no idea she was the child of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, and only found out by chance quite recently," the spokesperson added.
Shiloh is listed in the closing credits of the music video just as “Shi”, without her tell-tale surname.
However, this is not the first time Shiloh has changed her name to distance herself from her celebrity parents.
In May 2024, when she turned 18, Shiloh filed paperwork to legally drop Pitt from her double-barreled surname, making her just Shiloh Jolie.
More of Brangelina's children have ditched their dad's name
Her name change was made official a few months later, eight years after Angelina filed for divorce from Brad.
Since then some of her five siblings have followed suit.
Brangelina’s eldest child, 24-year-old Maddox, adopted from Cambodia by Angelina before she met Brad, has also ditched his dad’s name.
In the credits of Couture, Angelina’s 2025 movie that he worked on as an assistant director, he is named as Maddox Jolie.
In another blow to the double Oscar-winning dad, one of the former couple’s youngest children, 17-year-old Vivienne, also uses just her mom’s last name as she follows her parents and siblings into the industry.
She was listed as Vivienne Jolie in the playbill of The Outsiders as a producer assistant in the Broadway musical.
The couple, who met in 2004 on the set of Mr & Mrs Smith and married in 2014, were one of Hollywood’s most high-profile couples, known for raising six children together.
Three of their children are adopted and three are biological.
