Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has revealed that she once "fought" with her former husband Brad Pitt for working with disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein. Jolie recently opened up her life and experience during an interview with The Guardian in support of her new book, "Know Your Rights and Claim Them: A Guide for Youth". Written in partnership with child rights lawyer Geraldine Van Bueren QC and Amnesty International, the book is dedicated to ensuring the rights of children around the world. During the interview, Jolie was asked about her experience of being disrespected in Hollywood.

"Well, no surprise, Harvey Weinstein. I worked with him when I was young," she said. Jolie was 21 when she featured in "Playing By Heart", the 1988 movie executive produced by Weinstein. In 2017, the producer was accused by numerous women of sexual assault and misconduct. Following the multiple accusations, Weinstein was fired by his own company. He is currently in prison after a New York jury convicted him for the rape and sexual assault of two women. Jolie had previously said in a New York Times piece that she had a "bad experience".
