Shiloh Jolie-Pitt -- it's worse than we feared. It was one thing when the 4-year-old "love child" of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt/winner of the genetic jackpot raised eyebrows this winter for her breezy, tomboyish style. Oh, Shiloh, why can't you be more like that Suri Cruise? She's like a miniature Charlotte York Goldenblatt! Maybe, cooler heads speculated, Shiloh's sartorial gender-bending was just a phrase, a bit of gamine gone wild.
But the terror that the preschooler might go all Chaz Bono will not abate. As her famous mother reveals in the new Vanity Fair -- in a nugget promptly and widely disseminated Monday -- Shiloh "dresses like a little dude ... she likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits. So it's a suit with a tie and a jacket and slacks, or a tracksuit. She likes to dress like a boy." That we already knew, but oh no! She continues, "She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers."
