The 45-year-old actress kept a casual look in a plain white tee and black denim jeans for the outing in Los Angeles. The Salt actress looked comfortable in her easy look, as she added yellow Valentino slides that sell for almost $700, for a pop of color. In case of a temperature change she also carried a grey sweater on her arm. Angelina was sure to wear a grey reusable face mask as she walked along the sidewalk, to follow local and state guidelines. She added light lensed yellow sunglasses to her look, matching her sandals, and carried a white leather handbag on her shoulder. It seems the family may have gotten a cat as she left the pet store in with a grey litter box, a straw den and a water feeder. Her daughter looked sporty grey and white geometric athletic shorts and a beige tee, with a black face mask. Vivienne is one of the six children Angelina shares with ex Brad Pitt including Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, John, 14, and Knox, 12.This comes after the One And Only Ivan actress told E!'s Daily Pop that she loves the 'chaos' of it all with dogs running around, balls being thrown and movie nights with heaps of popcorn in her $25M Los Feliz mansion.'You know, I've never been one who valued relaxation.

She is still locked in a four-year-long court battle to end her marriage with Brad Pitt, who is now in a new romance with model Nicole Poturalski.But Angelina Jolie seemed to focus on her children on Thursday as she was seen with her large brood at Nobu Malibu. The 45-year-old actress stunned in a golden maxi dress and low kitten heels as she headed inside. Her dress was in a sheath style and cinched at her waist with a matching silk tie and featured a high-neckline.She teamed her golden dress with matching slip-on short heels, and medium sized gold hoop earrings.

The pair were seen cosying up together in the VIP box during Kanye West's performance at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles in November 2019, with onlookers saying they pair were deep in conversation as they waited for the performance to begin.ources revealed on Wednesday that the pair were in a relationship after they were spotted touching down at France's Le Castellet Airport.

She has brains as well as beauty and her 10 years on the catwalks of the fashion world has helped her become multi-lingual and she can speak in five different languages.Nicole comes from Bergkamen, Germany, which is in the old industrial Ruhr region and is of Polish heritage. On her Facebook page, the fashion star, who is a favourite for British designer Vivienne Westwood, reveals she is single and listed her former city as Warsaw.Her career has taken her to fashion shows in New York, Paris and Milan and she has been a cover girl for ELLE, Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire. At 13, she wanted to be a marine biologist but was apparently spotted by a talent scout in Disneyland Paris and her parents agreed to allow her to model.But talented and beautiful model still managed to complete her Abitur - German A levels - and founded an organisation devoted to helping sharks.
While she boasts a long list of accomplishments, the model is particularly proud of her son, Emil, who makes regular appearances on her Instagram account. Her outing and comments come amid ongoing legal battles in her divorce from Brad.The actress recently requested that Judge John W. Ouderkirk be removed from the case for failing to disclose a work relationship with one of Brad's attorneys.Earlier on Thursday the judge denied Jolie's claims he's 'biased' against her, saying he 'can and will remain impartial.'Ouderkirk countered that he is within his rights to continue working as the celebrity divorce continues to drag on.'I will continue to consider accepting other cases as other additional cases may arise from time to time while the Jolie/Pitt case is still pending,' wrote the judge in court documents obtained by ET on Wednesday.

The judge overseeing the high profile divorce between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt has denied Jolie's claims he's 'biased' against her.The 45-year-old actress had earlier this month asked to take Judge John W. Ouderkirk off the case amid claims he had failed to disclose an existing relationship between himself and Pitt's lawyers.However Ouderkirk countered that he is within his rights to continue working as the celebrity divorce continues to drag on.'I will continue to consider accepting other cases as other additional cases may arise from time to time while the Jolie/Pitt case is still pending,' wrote the judge in court documents obtained by ET on Wednesday.'Such other cases might involve party, lawyer‚ law firm and/or witnesses involved in the Jolie/Pitt matter,' continued the former Los Angeles County Superior Court judge. He then went on to declare he can and will remain impartial in the family dispute, according to ET. Jolie has previously been accused of deliberately trying to delay the bitter four-year long divorce battle by Pitt's legal team, after she filed a request to remove the judge.However the Academy Award winning actress' lawyer Samantha Bley DeJean retorted that 'all my client is asking for is a fair trial based on facts, with no special favors extended to either side,' in a statement to UsWeekly last Thursday.The statement adds: 'The only way litigants can trust the process is for everyone involved to ensure that there’s transparency and impartiality.'The report also adds a comment from Neama Rahmani, president of West Coast Trial Lawyers, who believes that Judge Ouderkirk is 'biased in Brad's favor' due to the personal connections they have.An insider recently told UsWeekly of the divorce battle: 'They're at a total impasse. And there's no end in sight.'As previously reported in court documents, Jolie claimed that Ouderkik - who married the couple at their lavish French wedding in 2014 - failed to disclose 'ongoing business and professional relationships' that he had with Pitt's legal team.However, Pitt responded in papers filed on August 13, calling Jolie's filing a 'Hail Mary' - an NFL term for a desperate, often last-ditch play.
In them, Pitt's legal team accuses the actress of making a 'transparently tactical gambit' to delay matters, adding that it will be their own children who are 'hurt most' by the hold up.The papers describe Jolie's request as 'a thinly-veiled attempt by Jolie to delay the adjudication of long-pending custody issues in this case.'The former power couple - who first split in 2016, effectively ending a 12-year relationship and two years of marriage - share six children, Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.Jolie alleged in her filing that Ouderkirk 'failed to make timely mandatory disclosures of ongoing business and professional relationships between himself' and Pitt's legal team.She added in her request that she was 'never afforded the opportunity to even raise a concern or to object to the ever-increasing business relationships between Judge Ouderkirk and [Pitt's] counsel — relationships that were providing a steady stream of income to Judge Ouderkirk and the potential for future work.'Adding: 'These are precisely the type of repeat customer circumstances that create doubts about a privately-compensated private judge’s ability to remain impartial.'Yet, Pitt's team has responded saying Jolie had been made fully aware that Ouderkirk had accepted 'additional new engagements' involving the actor's team, and that she had 'never objected' to Ouderkirk's 'continued involvement' in the proceedings until now.In Pitt's response, he also pointed out three times where Jolie and her lawyers are said to have asked to extend Ouderkirk's appointment to their ongoing divorce case.The documents add that Pitt is concerned about how the continued delays will affect their children, saying: 'Unfortunately, the individuals hurt most by Jolie's transparently tactical gambit are the parties' own children, who continue to be deprived of a final resolution to these custody issues.'Jolie's lawyer DeJean responded to Pitt's filing last week in a statement to PEOPLE saying: 'It is unfortunate that Mr. Pitt's team has sought to intervene ahead of Judge Ouderkirk's response.''One can only conclude that this is an attempt to obstruct or influence Judge Ouderkirk's answer. Any delay in these proceedings is due to their zealous attempt to create an unrecognized special exception for their client's benefit.'The report adds that a source close to Pitt's team claim that it was Jolie's team who actually knew the judge first, and that 'the only excuse for their filing is that her team knew they were likely to lose and they needed to stall by changing the referee in the fourth quarter.''This is the Judge who married them, someone who her team knew well and who her team actually introduced to the couple,' a Pitt source claims.

Angelina Jolie's family may have added another dog to the family.The 45-year-old movie star's 12-year-old daughter Vivienne was seen carrying a small pooch inside a blue carrier when she went to visit a friend in Los Angeles on Tuesday.The family already has an English bulldog, two pugs and a Rottweiler, among other animals.Angelina kept an eye on style as she added a crisp white button down shirt with black cigarette pants that hugged her legs.And the Oscar winner wore her favorite pair of caramel colored Valentino slides that sell for almost $700.A large rectangular black purse was worn crossbody style as Jolie chatted on her cell phone while in a blue surgical mask.There was also a diamond ring on her middle finger and a gold watch on her wrist.Aviator sunglasses were perched on top of her head as she wore her long brunette hair down. Vivienne, whose father is Brad Pitt, was much more dressed down in a blue T-shirt with dark shorts and black Nike sneakers. The child's honey blonde hair was up in a relaxed ponytail. On Sunday the Maleficent actress was seen in the same V slides as she was pushing a red cart stuffed with plastic bags from Staples.This comes after the One And Only Ivan actress told E!'s Daily Pop that she loves the 'chaos' of it all with dogs running around, balls being thrown and movie nights with heaps of popcorn in her $25M Los Feliz mansion.'You know, I've never been one who valued relaxation. I like chaos,' the former model said with a laugh.'I've been on high-level meetings where there's dogs and balls and kids and things.

We're lucky,' said the daughter of Jon Voight.This comes just as she asked that the judge overseeing her divorce from Pitt be removed. Angelina filed papers on August 7 claiming that Judge Ouderkirk - who married the former couple at their French estate Château Miraval in 2014 - failed to disclose other 'business relationships' he had with Pitt's lawyers, suggesting that he would be 'biased' in their divorce case.However, Pitt, 56, has responded in papers filed on August 13, calling Jolie's filing a 'Hail Mary' - an American Football reference to deliberately delay a game - according to legal documents obtained by PEOPLE. In them, Pitt's legal team accuses the actress of making a 'transparently tactical gambit' to delay matters, adding that it will be their own children who are 'hurt most' by the hold up.The papers describe Jolie's request as 'a thinly-veiled attempt by Jolie to delay the adjudication of long-pending custody issues in this case.' PageSix also adds that Pitt's team called Jolie's filing 'an abrupt cry of judicial bias [that] reeks of bad faith and desperation.'She responded by saying she just wants what is fair. The former power couple split in 2016, effectively ending a 12-year relationship and two years of marriage.
