Brad just might make my worst-dressed list to be unveiled Feb 1st!
On the eve of the release of - "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" - Showbiz Tonight (a News Magazine show) dragged out an old clip of Brad Pitt waxing philosophical about his acting aspirations and the vagaries of fortune and fame.
Oh my gosh - what an embarrassing ten minutes-or-so on celluloid - for the once-studly young romantic leading man!
Sporting a pair of ubiquitous horn-rimmed glasses (Poindexters), and a dippity-do haircut, the heart-throb's hands consistently flapped in the breeze, as he elucidated (!) his thoughts in a whispy faggy little voice, sure to have raised eyebrows in living-rooms around the country.
On a couple of occasions in the conversation, the then-wimpy actor used a dated hand expression - pronounced quotation marks in mid-air - to get points across to the host.
But frankly, the boy wonder looked positively silly, as he rambled on in a most disconcerting way.
Even the host poked fun at the elusive star after the segment was broadcast to viewers.
When the spot wrapped, I even shook my head in disbelief.
How did Pitt ever end up on the road to stardom in view of the silly-as-a-goose persona that he once projected in those heady days of his naive youth?Well, you know what they say!
It's who you blow - not what you know - eh?
A tip for you Brad.
Gobble up all the copies, pronto!
And, burn before screening, too!
Brad, buttons pulling at the vest are a fashion no-no!
