Angelina Jolie walked the red carpet of the Tony Awards with daughter Vivienne, 15, in matching teal ensembles. The two of them worked together behind the scenes on the Broadway show "The Outsiders," which earned four awards, including best musical.
Jolie wore a floor-length Versace gown made of velvet that was artfully draped over her body, along with a matching velvet shawl.

Jolie did not speak onstage to accept the award, but she did introduce the cast's performance, saying, "S.E. Hinton wrote ‘The Outsiders’ in high school, half a century later, it still speaks to us. Society changes but the experience of being an outsider is universal. To any young person [and] any person feeling on the outside, you are not wrong to see what’s unfair."

While it was a big night for Jolie and her daughter, their appearance comes on the heels of new controversy surrounding Vivienne's name. She and her five siblings had the hyphenated last name Jolie-Pitt for both their mother and father, Brad Pitt, but in the playbill for "The Outsiders," she's credited as simply "Vivienne Jolie."
Big sister Shiloh recently celebrated her 18th birthday, and she reportedly went for a more formal change, filing paperwork to drop the Pitt name.

Pitt's relationship with his children has allegedly been strained since the "Bullet Train" actor and Jolie first began their divorce proceedings back in 2016. At the time, Jolie cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for her split from Pitt and requested sole custody of all six children they share.

"My daughter Viv loves theater," she said. "She appreciates all theater but she certainly knows what she feels close to and what she responds to. She went to see ‘The Outsiders’ at La Jolla [Playhouse, a popular theater near Los Angeles] about five times and was telling me about it, and I had read the book, and I’d seen the film years ago. Then she asked me to come see it with her … as a mother, as a person, I was watching it, but I was really watching the effect it was having on my young daughter and what she was telling me about herself, and I was learning what about it was important to her and why it connected so deeply to her."
