Actress Angelina Jolie has delivered an inspirational address while attending this year's Kids' Choice Awards.
Jolie has made the speech while accepting the "Favorite Villain" award for her role as the title character in "Maleficent."
"When I was young I was told I was different. And I felt out of place: too loud, too full of fire, never good at sitting still, never good at fitting in. When someone tells you that you are different, smile and hold your head up and be proud. Cause a little trouble. It's good for you."
Jolie attended the event this weekend on the heels of her having her ovaries and fallopian tubes removed.
The actress and director has a genetic disorder which leaves her prone to cancer.
She had a mastectomy a few years back.
