Daddy's girl: There's no mistaking the genetics of four-year-old Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt

Their parents want them to enjoy all the fun of a normal childhood.

But with two of Hollywood's biggest stars as mum and dad, the Jolie-Pitt youngsters might find it hard to avoid a sprinkling of stardust themselves.

Four-year-old Shiloh Jolie-Pitt certainly looked every inch a screen idol as she walked through a Japanese airport yesterday, hand-in-hand with mother Angelina Jolie, and adopted 'rainbow family' siblings Maddox, eight, and Pax, six, and five-year-old Zahara

But with her cropped blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes, it was dad Brad Pitt who she most resembled.

Miss Jolie, 35, has spoken of her daughter's tomboy tendencies, discussing Shiloh's request that her parents crop her blonde hair and referring to her daughter's dress-sense as 'Montenegro style'.

She told Vanity Fair magazine last month: 'It's how people dress there. She likes tracksuits, she likes suits.

'She likes to dress like a boy. She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers.'

Trendy: All four children appear to have different styles, while their mother looks effortlessly stylish in a black silk dress and beige flip flops

And Shiloh's attempts to emulate her brothers have extended to demanding that her family calls her John at all times.

She has answered only to this for nearly a year because of her love of the story of Peter Pan (in the book by JM Barrie, John is Wendy's younger brother).

'We've got to call her John,' Brad Pitt revealed, noting that when he started to ask, 'Shi, do you want...' she would interrupt with: 'John. I'm John.'

The actor, shown below, added: 'I'll say, "John, would you like some orange juice?" And she goes, "No!"'

The children were accompanying their mother on a promotional tour for her new action thriller, Salt, which marks her return to work after an 18-month break to look after her family.

'Montenegro style': Angelina said recently that Shiloh always likes dressing as a boy, so she kits her out as 'a little dude'

Looking trendy in a variety of smart outfits, Maddox, Pax, Shiloh and Zahara clung to their mother's hand as they walked through Japan's New Tokyo International Airport in Narita yesterday morning.

And despite having to control four children on her own, Angelina looked the picture of calm as she strolled through the airport in a fashionable black silk dress and tan flip flops.

The only time the 35-year-old actress gave any hint of the stress she may have been feeling was when she told eight-year-old Maddox off for apparently hitting his younger brother.

However, there were some absences from the group as they walked through the airport - namely Angelina's partner Brad Pitt and their two-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox

Giggles all round: The children can't stop smiling as they share a joke with their Hollywood star mother

It is thought Brad is looking after the youngsters while Angelina travels the world promoting her new action movie Salt.

But the 46-year-old actor is there in spirit, it seems - if only to influence his children's way of dressing.

While Pax appears to be attempting to emulate Brad's style in a cool beige linen suit and flat cap, Maddox seems to be going for an altogether more trendy look in a white vest, black trousers and white trainers.

And Shiloh and Zahara both went for a summery look in yellow - with Zahara wearing a white top and white shorts accessorised with a bright yellow cardigan, and Shiloh teaming her beige trousers with a a pale lemon T-shirt.

Accidents: Maddox hits Pax's face as they mess around, but the action doesn't go down too well with Angelina

Discipline: Angelina tells Maddox off after hitting Pax, while Shiloh looks entirely disinterested by the situation

The actress recently spoke about son Maddox, the first child she adopted, and the twins.

She added to Vanity Fair magazine: 'Maddox is a real intellectual, which I can take no credit for genetically. He's great at school, great at history.

'He feels like he could be a writer or travel the world and learn about places and things.

'The twins are a classic boy and girl. She's really female. And he's really a little dude.'

On Sunday night, Angelina attended the Salt premiere in Moscow, Russia, looking stunning in a red halterneck dress.

In the film, released in the UK this week, Angelina plays a woman called Evelyn Salt, a CIA agent who is accused of being a KGB spy and then goes on the run.
