Not only did Angelina Jolie meet the Queen of England, but HRH made Jolie a dame during a private ceremony! Jolie was presented with the Insignia of an Honorary Dame Grand Cross of the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George at a reception at Buckingham Palace, and husband Brad Pitt and the couple's six kids were present as well.

In June Jolie, who has been a United Nations Human Rights Council ambassador for over a decade now, was named as an honorary dame in the Queen's Birthday Honors List for her campaign to end sexual violence in regions of conflict all over the world.

"To receive an honor related to foreign policy means a great deal to me, as it is what I wish to dedicate my working life to," Jolie said. "Working on PVSI and with survivors of rape is an honor in itself. I know that succeeding in our goals will take a lifetime, and I am dedicated to it for all of mine."
