Lesson: You Don't Have to Conform to Anyone's Expectations

Not everyone has succumbed to the pressures of Hollywood and its beauty standards. In 2010, Jolie told the Daily Mail that, despite what the public may have believed, she hadn't had plastic surgery and wasn't planning to get any.

"I haven't had anything done and I don't think I will," she said. "But if it makes somebody happy then that's up to them. I'm not in somebody else's skin to know what makes them feel better about themselves. But I don't plan to do it myself."

We'll note that this interview took place a decade ago, so it's possible that she's changed her stance on this since then. The takeaway here is that cosmetic procedures are a personal choice, so whether you go through with one or opt against them, it's OK.
