Our Celebrity Metalheads section gets a new entry, and this one seems like an actual metalhead. While we've seen celebrities like Kanye West proudly rocking a Megadeth t-shirt, his wife Kim Kardashian rocking a rare Metallica tee and her half-sister Kendall Jenner photographed wearing not just a Megadeth shirt but a Slayer t-shirt, it seems to me like that's the doing a fashion stylist.
But Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's adopted son Maddox… he seems like the real deal. A friend of mine who works in the fashion industry pointed me to the above photo of Maddox wearing a Slipknot hoodie while recently leaving an airport. I did a quick Google search and found a few more metal tees in the fifteen year old's collection, and he has a pretty solid taste for heavy metal.
Here he is rocking that same Slipknot hoodie and an Iron Maiden t-shirt…
Here he is with his mom rocking a Misfits hoodie and beanie:
Here he is recently rocking a Slayer tee and leather jacket:
He must really love Slipknot…
Here he is on a yacht with papa Brad and a Metallica hoodie…
And finally, a surprising shirt, which cements to me his actual metalhead status, Maddox in a Whitechapel t-shirt…
It seems to me that Maddox's music tastes compare similarly to that of the average Metal Injection fan. Maybe Maddox is even a Metal Injection reader? If so, you rock Maddox! Blast all the Whitechapel you want to annoy the hell out of your parents. I wonder if he got turned onto metal by Brad Pitt or by Angelina Jolie? A quick search shows Pitt has an affinity for classic rock while Jolie is more drawn to pop music. Maybe he found the metal on his own.
Perhaps, he and Michael Jackson's daughter Paris (another known metalhead) run into each other at Metallica concerts.
Other notable celebrity metalheads include Michael Fassbender aka Magneto, Chris Hemsworth, aka THOR, and even Harry Potter himself, Daniel Radcliffe. Prince Harry gets down with some old school metal bands, as does the president of Indonesia.
