How do I say no?' Tattooed Angelina Jolie reveals her children want their own inkings but husband Brad Pitt is horrified

Tattooed Hollywood star Angelina Jolie says that her young children have horrified their father Brad Pitt - because they want their own inkings.

The couple are parents to six children, six-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, Shiloh, eight, Zahara, nine, Pax, 11 and Maddox, 13.

Jolie, 39, is thought to have about 17 different designs, including an inscription on her arm which she got just last year, inked all over her body.

Horrified: Tattooed Hollywood star Angelina Jolie says that her young children have horrified their father Brad Pitt - because they want their own inkings

The star told Radio Times magazine that she did not want her offspring to follow their parents into the movie business.

'My kids rebelling would be if they all became brain surgeons. They're already asking me about tattoos. How do I say "No"?,' she said.

'It's especially hard for dads and girls,' she said. 'For some reason men get a little more sensitive when the daughter gets a tattoo. And Brad thinks the girls can do no wrong. He's mush in their hands!'

Jolie - whose tattoos include a large tiger on her lower back - told the magazine that if her children want to act 'they'll have to find a real job at the same time.

'But I'm hoping that when they see all the other things in the world, they'll be inspired to be writers, politicians, activists. They're very individual people. So I imagine they're not going to follow their mum and dad,' she said.

Despite his aversion to tattoos for his children, Brad has up to a dozen of his own inkings.

Earlier this year he showed off two new tattoos, one on the inside of his right bicep, and another on his torso,

His bicep tattooo is a variation of part of a Rumi poem, and reads: 'There exists a field, beyond all notions of right and wrong. I will meet you there,' and the markings add to a collection which includes one of Oetzi the Ice Age Caveman on his left arm and Jolie’s birth date in written in Khmer on his stomach.

Meanwhile, Jolie has just finished filming By The Sea, with her husband, who she directs in the movie.

The movie is the first that the couple have acted in together since Mr And Mrs Smith in 2005, when they fell in love.

Speaking before filming began, she said: 'It feels a little daunting - we haven't worked together for 10 years.

'But all the reasons why people say we should be scared of it, we feel like that's exactly why we have to do this - because we can.'

She said of directing her husband: 'He's a pretty strong actor! It's going to be interesting. He's a really great artist, such an interesting artist, and of course he's the man I love, so I think we're going to have a great time.'

Jolie recently directed Unbroken, about Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner who was taken prisoner by Japanese forces during the Second World War.

The actress said that in Zamperini's generation 'it wasn't exceptional to do things for your fellow man, to take care of your family, your community, to be strong. It's very different now'.
