She said, ‘I lied and said that he wasn’t the first, so I didn’t seem like a loser.

Angelina says she lost her virginity at the age of 14 – and turned to violence because the sex ‘wasn’t enough.’ She told OK! magazine, ‘In a moment of wanting to feel closer to my boyfriend I grabbed a knife and cut him.
