Angelina Jolie was given an honorary damehood tbh.

I definitely think she is deserving of some sort of honour, the reasons for giving her one sounds slight on paper but when you cast your minds back to those initial days and the gig a week later, she did a lot to unify people in grief and generally raise spirits in the face of a tragedy and plus, it would take more strength than people realise to return and perform at a place where such an attack happened only a week after it happened.

I gotta respect her for turning it down though and the thoughtfulness of why she did it.
