The clear message behind Angelina Jolie’s new tattoo

Her golden blonde hair and bright red lipstick caused a stir at the event, but it was another detail that caught all the attention that evening: the freshly etched ink on her forearm, nestled among his many other tattoos. Indeed, Angelina Jolie gave a glimpse of the latest drawing to join her collection during the inauguration of the musical The Outsiders, held on Thursday, April 11 on Broadway. The words “Stay gold“, written in cursive letters, were still red from the recent mark of the needle on his skin.

Tattooed tribute

If the actress has not officially revealed the meaning behind this tattoo, it is very likely that it has something to do with the event. Indeed, “Stay Gold” is a replica of the book The Outsiders by SE Hinton and the eponymous film adapted from the novel, directed by Francis Ford Coppola in 1983, on which the musical produced by Angelina Jolie is based. This Anglo-Saxon expression, which means “to remain authentic, true to yourself”, is also the title of a song from this show that she produced with the help of her daughter Vivienne.

Plus, Angelina Jolie wasn’t the only member of the art team to expound on this mantra. Indeed, Justin Levine, co-author of the show and creator of the soundtrack, shared a photo of his own tattoo on Instagram on April 14, revealing the same words “Stay Gold», in identical style.
