Angelina Jolie as She Opens up About Her Family

Angelina Jolie has revealed her four-year-old daughter Shiloh wants to be a boy.

The Salt actress - who has six children with partner Brad Pitt - has revealed that that she encourages her eldest biological child to embrace her tomboy style.

'She wants to be a boy,' she tells the August edition of Vanity Fair magazine. 'So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers.'

Apparently coining a new fashion term, she says: 'Shiloh, we feel, has Montenegro style.'

'She dresses like a little dude. It's how people dress there. She likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits.'

But Angelina isn't concerned and says she sees much of her creative self in her daughter.

'Shiloh’s hysterically funny, one of the goofiest, most playful people you’ll ever meet,' she says. 'Goofy and verbal, the early signs of a performer. I used to get dressed up in costumes and jump around.'

In her most candid interview yet, the 35-year-old described most of her children's developing personalities.

Maddox, 8, is 'a real intellectual, which I can take no credit for genetically. He’s great at school, great at history. He feels like he could be a writer or travel the world and learn about places and things.'

Five-year-old Zahara has 'got an extraordinary voice and is just so elegant and well spoken,' she adds.

And twins Knox and Vivienne, who turn 2 next month, are 'classic boy and girl. She’s really female. And he’s really a little dude.'

Angelina, who is also mother to Pax, 6, says she has a 'happy home' and has not ruled out adding to her brood.

But she and partner Brad, 46, are aware of the demands of six growing children and she denied she was carrying a seventh.

She told the magazine: 'I'm not pregnant. We're not opposed to it. But we want to make sure we can give everybody special time.

'They're kids now, and can play together, but they're going to need a lot more talking in the middle of the night, like I did with my mom for hours.

'We want to make sure we don't build a family so big that we don't have absolutely enough time to raise them each really well.'

Angelina, who recently finished filming in Venice for her role as an Interpol agent opposite Johnny Depp in The Tourist, might soon give up acting to spend more time with her family.

'It is not the most important thing in my life,' she says of her career.

'It’s a fun job. It’s a luxury. But I don’t think I’ll do it much longer.'
