How stylish! Angelina appeared calm and composed wearing a kimono-style dress with a fun gorilla pattern, while Elle shone in a lovely cream-colored dress with frills.
During the conversation, the celebrities exchanged their views on the significance of various female characters in the entertainment industry. They also touched upon the mounting influence social media has on the youth and its effects. Furthermore, they emphasized that every girl must have equal access to education.
During the session, a student raised a query about how women can be more responsible on social media. Fanning’s response was to advise the girls that social media only displays an artificial and superficial version of someone’s life.
Words of Wisdom: During a Q&A session, a student asked how women can ensure their safety and responsibility on social media. Elle Fanning advised the girls to remember that social media only displays a “fake front” of someone’s life and not to compare themselves with others. Angelina Jolie, when asked what advice she would give to her younger self, advised herself to hold onto the belief that she deserved happiness and freedom and to eliminate anything that hindered her pursuit of it. She also stressed the importance of enjoying life and not pushing oneself too hard.
According to Jolie, it’s important to believe that you deserve to be happy and free. If anything is preventing you from achieving those things, you should remove it from your life as soon as possible.
Angelina Jolie is set to reprise her role as the evil fairy Maleficent in the upcoming sequel, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil.
