Brad Pitt, Actor
Sometimes you can be so good looking that people don’t want to take you seriously. It’s a curse that’s followed me all my life, but I’ve learned to deal with it. Apparently, so has Brad Pitt.
Though he’s a talented actor with an excellent filmography, he’s had to be content being married to Angelina Jolie and to making more money per film than most of us will make in a lifetime.
Brad will be turning 50 late next year, so he has time for the Academy to take him seriously and give him one of its coveted statues. He’s received three nominations so far, but no hardware yet. Some of his more memorable roles:
- Thelma and Louise (1991)
- A River Runs Through It (1992)
- Interview with the Vampire (1994)
- Seven (1995)
- Twelve Monkeys (1995 – Nomination)
- Fight Club (1999)
- Ocean’s Eleven (2001)
- Troy (2004)
- Burn After Reading (2008)
- The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008 – Nomination)
- Inglorious Basterds (2009)
- Moneyball (2011 – Nomination)
Pitt has been named People’s Sexiest Man Alive twice, and one of the 100 Most Powerful Celebrities three times. He has a beautiful wife, and I have a beautiful wife. He has power, and I have this website. He has money, and I have a 2005 Ford Focus with 116,000 miles. Pretty much equal, I’d say.
