Before Brad Pitt was all about playing casino games in the Ocean’s movie, he was into learning basketball on Another World. He hasn’t aged a day since he was 23 in that 1987 episode.
As we know, Brad Pitt starred in Thelma & Louise with Geena Davis. Today, when the Oscar winner was on The Graham Norton Show, she revealed that the actor was up for the role against three other leading men.
However, Pitt stood out to her because he was so charismatic and talented. So much so that the actress kept forgetting her lines. So, when he left, she told casting that he was her favorite of the four that auditioned.
Who were the other three? They were Mark Ruffalo, Grant Show, and an actor she forgot about it until they sat next to each other on the plane years later. George Clooney was so forgettable during that audition that he had to remind her he was the fourth person.
So whenever someone says, but they are no George Clooney, they should be saying he is no Brad Pitt. Well, to everyone but Angelina Jolie. Too soon?
When you think of Brad Pitt, what do you think he would do in his spare time? I would think he would work on cars or work out. But he does something else.
The actor told Good Morning America’s Chris Connelly that he is into pottery and ceramics. What does he make? He makes candle holders and stuff like that.
Now, I am picturing him taking a bath surrounded by candles in the candle holders he made. Oh, and he needed the bath because we just recreated that scene from Ghost with Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore, and we made a mess.
Sean Penn asked some of his new friends to do a virtual table read of Fast Times at Ridgemont High to raise money for his charity. Core does a lot of amazing work like providing COVID-19 testing sites in hard-hit areas.
I say new friends because he didn’t ask any of his co-stars from the original movie to do it. Instead, he had Julia Roberts read Jennifer Jason Leigh’s Stacy, Jennifer Aniston was Phoebe Cate’s Linda, and a stoned Shia LaBeouf filled in for Penn.
Who played Brad? Brad Pitt, of course. Shortly before the table read went live, Judge Reinhold, who originally held his part, I mean the part, asked his fans to watch. When it came to him talking about Pitt filling his huge pirate hat, he said, “I think Brad Pitt, is playing me, which would only make sense, cause the resemblance is uncanny.” Yes, it is.
Is it just me, or does Reinhold look better now than he did in the 1982 film that never gets old?

Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were both nominated for Emmys today. She was nominated for The Morning Show, and got one for playing Dr. Anthony Fauci on Saturday Night Live.
Since they won’t be able to have another red carpet reunion (due to the coronavirus pandemic) as they did at the SAG Awards, I think they should watch it from one of their homes together. Could you imagine how everyone would go crazy over that? At least something would make TV’s biggest night worth watching.
If he is not up for it, then the Friends should all watch it together at the Friends’ set on the Warner Bros lot.
Isn’t everything about Jennifer Aniston and her reunions? Who will she reunite with on September 20th? Tune in to see. We know it won’t be her TMS co-star Reese Witherspoon, who was a three time loser today. Three chances and no nomination to call her own. I guess the Emmy voters don’t know who she is.
UPDATE:Jennifer Aniston made a funny when she reacted to her nomination. The actress wrote, “Verified
What a morning waking up to this news! I am so proud of my @themorningshow family. This team worked so, so hard to make the best show we possibly could, and I am truly honored to be a part of it. Thanks for this acknowledgment and congratulations to EVERYONE 👏🏼 🥳⠀

“Now, I’m just gonna have to figure out what MASK I’M GONNA WEAR 😷🤔💃🏼!!”
I wonder if she hired Brad Pitt’s people to give her a sense of humor so she can win the award?
