Bonnie Blue Bramall, the 15-year-old daughter of Hollywood megastars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, has delivered a powerful retort to online trolls who targeted her with the 'nepo baby' label. The teenager, who has largely been shielded from the public eye, responded after a since-deleted TikTok video criticised the children of A-list celebrities.
The video in question, which has sparked widespread discussion, questioned the achievements of celebrity offspring. Bonnie Blue, whose full name is Vivienne Marcheline, took to the comments section with a defiant message that has since gone viral.
A Firm Message from the Youngest Jolie-Pitt
In her direct response, Bonnie Blue wrote: "Okay, and? What about it? My parents are actors, and they are well known, yes. But that doesn't mean I am any less of a person. I am my own individual, and I would appreciate it if you would not call me a 'nepo baby'. I am just a teenager trying to live my life."
This isn't the first time the Jolie-Pitt children have had to confront public scrutiny. Her sister, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, recently made headlines by petitioning a court to drop 'Pitt' from her surname upon turning 18. The family has been at the centre of media attention since Brad and Angelina's separation in 2016.
Public Reaction and Support
The online community has largely rallied behind Bonnie Blue following her clapback. Comments flooded in supporting her stance, with one user stating, "She's absolutely right. Let the girl live her life." Another added, "Good for her for standing up for herself. The 'nepo baby' discourse has gone too far when it targets minors."
The incident highlights the intense pressure faced by the children of celebrities, who often have their every move analysed despite seeking a normal upbringing. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have six children together: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Knox and Vivienne (Bonnie Blue).
As the debate around 'nepo babies' continues in entertainment circles, Bonnie Blue's response serves as a poignant reminder that behind the labels are real people, particularly young adults and children, navigating their own identities away from their parents' fame.
