Angelina Jolie Has Come Out!

Speaking Her Truth
Angelina Jolie publicly acknowledged her attraction to women in interviews in the late 1990s and early 2000s. She discussed having had meaningful romantic relationships with women, most notably actress and model Jenny Shimizu. Rather than treating these relationships as fleeting experimentation, she described them as real and significant.

In interviews, Jolie explained that she had loved women and could easily imagine settling down with one if her life had taken a different path. She spoke about her feelings without hesitation or embarrassment. There was no dramatic “coming out” announcement, no press conference, no elaborate reveal. Instead, there were thoughtful, straightforward answers to direct questions.
