Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt is making headlines again; this time, it is not another e-bike accident. The 20-year-old son of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who once was the most under-the-radar member of the Jolie-Pitt clan, was spotted leaning into L.A.'s after-dark scene in a rare outing.
In the early hours of the morning, Pax and a group of friends were seen wrapping up an evening of celebration with a stop at Deja Vu Showgirls, a well-known strip club on Hollywood Boulevard.

Paparazzi caught Pax in low-key party mode, dressed in a black tee, khaki pants, and sneakers. But the low-key vibe didn't quite match his post-party posture. He appeared slightly unsteady, leaning on friends for support.
At one point, a friend helped him clean his face, a small but telling moment suggesting he might've been too deep into the cocktails.

According to sources, the gentleman's club stop lasted about 30 minutes. As they arrived, security at the entrance was seen checking IDs and patting down patrons, the usual procedure for the venue. Once inside, the group reportedly kept things moving, continuing the party later at a private residence.
For a member of one of Hollywood's most famous families, Pax has largely managed to sidestep the paparazzi circus that often follows celebrity offspring. He's known to prefer working behind the scenes and rarely steps into the spotlight unless he has to.
A Glimpse Into Pax's Low-Key, High-Profile Life
While his siblings like Shiloh, Zahara, and even Maddox have made headlines for various public appearances or creative pursuits, Pax has chosen the path of privacy. He doesn't have a known social media presence, doesn't appear to be chasing the influencer lifestyle, and hasn't publicly courted fame.
So this outing adds a little more dimension to what the public knows: he's 20, parties, and rides an e-bike. In addition, he's navigating adulthood with two of the most famous parents in the world and a last name that practically guarantees media attention even if he orders a latte.

How Angelina Jolie is Making Sure Pax is Safe
Pax has faced several frightening accidents, prompting his mother to step in with strict rules, even if he is an adult. After totaling his Tesla in May 2024, suffering severe injuries in a terrifying e-bike crash in July 2024, and crashing his e-bike again months later into a parking car, the actress made Pax to take "defensive" driving lessons, and sign a contract which states he has to wear a helmet while riding his e-bike.
“She’d love it if Pax would take these accidents as a warning and give up on this need for speed, but that’s very unlikely,” a source told InTouch.

And she’s made him sign a contract promising he’ll always wear his helmet," the insider said. “It’s still going to give her anxiety every time he leaves the house on his bike, all she can do is hope that Pax is realizing how lucky he is to be alive with his brain intact and that he will act more responsibly on the road going forward.”
