Shiloh Nouvel’s website - June 2, 2020
Angelina Jolie has snapped up a website for her new daughter, Shiloh Nouvel. The actress wasted no time in making sure the baby would feature on the internet by securing the rights to her internet domain name the day she was born.

Angelina and partner Brad Pitt welcomed their new arrival into the world on Saturday (27.05.06) and hours later Angelina’s legal team had snapped up the web address Shilohnouveljoliepitt.com. The website was registered in Angelina’s name by her Los Angeles attorneys at 8.27pm on Saturday. Shiloh is not the only member of the Jolie-Pitt family with her own website. Angelina’s attorneys secured MaddoxJolie-Pitt.com and ZaharaJolie-Pitt.com just days after Brad adopted the ’Tomb Raider’ star’s two older children. The couple are expected to stay in Namibia for a further two weeks before returning to the US.

New mother Gwen Stefani has also acted quickly to secure the internet domain name of her new son Kingston. The singer registered a least one URL for the newborn on May 25 - a day before the baby was reportedly born. However, Britney Spears had to fight for SeanPrestonFederline.com after another party snapped up the web address before she managed to register it for her son and her lawyers battled to get it back for her. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were too slow to secure SuriCruise.com - that was registered before the couple could secure it for their new daughter Suri.

Her family moved to LA when Angelina was eleven and she soon began working on her acting career, enrolling in the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute where ahe appeared in several productions. Despite her abilities Angelina was teased during her time at Beverley Hills High School - far from being beautiful and popular she was skinny, with glasses and braces and wore second hand clothes. At 14 she dropped out of theatre classes, harbouring dreams of becoming a funeral director, and began cutting herself. Angelina began a rebellious period of her life, moving out of home and in with her boyfriend.

Then, at 16, she returned to acting and rekindled her relationship with her father. She appeared in several of her brother’s student films before, in 1993 she was offered a role in sci-fi flick Cyborg 2. Several equally poor productions followed before Angelina landed a role in Hackers, which was a cult hit and threw the actress in the direction of Jonny Lee Miller, whom she would soon marry.

Little known films such as Foxfire and Mojave Moon followed but it was the Golden Globe winning George Wallace that got Angelina noticed and Pushing Tin, which co-starred Billy Bob Thornton and The Bone Collector helped her on her way to global stardom.
