Jolie: 'Disney films upset me'

Rex Features

Angelina Jolie has revealed that she finds Disney films offensive because they lack cultural diversity.

The actress told OK! that she was reluctant to show her daughters movies from the animation giant because they don't feature African princesses.

She said: "[So] even the colour of the children in the cartoon matters. There still isn't a Disney princess that's African and it's very difficult because our daughters are getting into princesses right now and it upsets me."

Jolie and partner Brad Pitt are expecting twins later in the year. The couple have three adopted children - Maddox, Pax, and Zahara - and biological daughter Shiloh.
