Angelina Jolie was seen for the first time since coming forward as one of Harvey Weinstein's victims.The 42-year-old actress was spotted running errands with her daughter Vivienne on Wednesday morning.No doubt the nine-year-old got plenty of bonding time with her A-list mother as she seemed to be the only child on the grocery trip.Angelina made sure to not draw some much attention to herself as she wore a sleeveless black maxi dress.She teamed the look with a pair of matching strappy sandals and designer shades.Her brunette tresses were worn down and tucked behind hear ear as she lugged along a bag of her purchases.The Oscar-winning actress showed off her natural looks by wearing minimal make-up finished off with a swipe of pink lip. In addition to Vivienne she has five other children including Shiloh, Zahara, Pax , Knox and Maddox Jolie-Pitt.This comes just days after Jolie disclosed that she was but one of his many intended victims, although she appeared to have escaped unscathed.She revealed was promoting her film Playing By Heart in 1998 when Weinstein made unwanted advances on the then 23-year-old in a hotel room. 'I had a bad experience with Harvey Weinstein in my youth, and as a result, chose never to work with him again and warn others when they did,' Jolie told the New York Times. 'This behavior towards women in any field, any country is unacceptable.' Hollywood is still reeling after an investigative piece by The New York Times and The New Yorker earlier this month uncovered numerous allegations of sexual harassment and assault against Weinstein over several decades.Actresses such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Beckinsale, Ashley Judd, Cara Delevigne, Heather Graham and Mira Sorvino have come forward to give their personal accounts of harassment and abuse of power by Weinstein.

He 'always said that she was the one that got away,' says source.Hugh Hefner may have convinced nearly every A-lister beauty to star in his popular Playboy magazine, but RadarOnline.com can reveal that Angelina Jolie, 42, was the one that got away.A source told Straight Shuter, “Hugh wanted Angelina more than any female celebrity in the world,” and he “always said that she was the one that got away.” The media mogul was certain that one day, before his untimely death, he would convince Jolie to pose for his cover.“Heff wanted Jolie so much that he offered her a million dollars,” to go nude on the pages of his magazine, added the source, but she “always refused.” Unfortunately for the icon, he passed away before Jolie could agree.As Radar readers know, Hollywood beauties Marilyn Monroe, Pamela Anderson, 50, and Drew Barrymore, 42, were among the first women to pose naked for Hugh Hefner’s Playboy. Monroe was in fact his first muse, and inspired him so much that he chose to be buried next to her for the rest of eternity.Straight Shuter’s source claims, however, that Hef believed Jolie was the Monroe of her time, and he never got over his infatuation with the unattainable brunette beauty.

Jane Goodall was a 26-year-old secretary with just a high school education when she was sent to Africa to study chimpanzees in their native habitat.Nearly sixty years later, newly uncovered original footage of the English scientist's years in the African bush has been turned into a fascinating new documentary by Brett Morgen.And Angelina Jolie and her children were there to support her longtime friend, as the film about the famed primatologist premiered at the Hollywood Bowl on Monday night.Never one to miss an educational opportunity, the well connected actress turned director brought along her four youngest children to meet Dame Goodall.Shiloh, Zahara, Knox and Vivien looked delighted to meet the 83-year-old, who remains a committed activist and spends her life travelling the world to educate people about the importance of conservation.Speaking at the event, Angelina said Jane was an inspiration to her six children.'I am so happy to be here to support my friend, and the cause that she has given her whole adult life to — helping us understand nature and our place in it,' Angelina told People magazine.'And now calling on us all to really grasp that we don’t have unlimited time to save wildlife and the environment. When someone with all Jane’s wealth of experience and knowledge and wisdom tells us that, we really have to take notice.'The two met eight years ago when Angelina was cast as the primatologist in the film Jane's Journey, about her life. Both UN Ambassadors, they bonded and became firm friends.The new documentary, narrated by Jane herself, was created from 100 hours of newly discovered 16MM film footage, filmed back in 1962 by Hugo van Lawick.Van Lawick was employed by National Geographic to create the film record. He went on to marry Jane, and the two had one son before divorcing, but stayed close until his death in 2002. Speaking to the sell-out crowd at the Hollywood Bowl on Monday, Jane shared the message she has spent her life promoting.'I have a very important message to take around the world. Which is that we are destroying this planet. And we need to get together to try and make change,' she told the audience, who gave her a standing ovation.'The National Geographic has been helping me to spread this message around the world ever since 1962 when they sent Hugo van Lawick to Gombe [National Park in Tanzania] and he was the one whose films and still photographs took the story of Jane and the chimps into homes around America and then around the world.'She said she initially rolled her eyes at the idea of another movie about her life. 'I was persuaded. "Well Jane never mind, it's going to be another film but it will help spread the message." So I agreed.'She said she was told her involvement would require just three hours of interviews.'We met for the first time out in Tanzania and it didn't work out quite like that. I met him [director Brett] and he started this interview. It lasted for two, two and a half days.'Brett, known for films such as Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck, interjected: 'The first thing I asked Jane was "Do you get tired of telling your story."'And she looked at me and said "It depends who's asking the questions."' To laughter, the pair introduced the film.
