Brad Pitt Defends Unfortunate Mustache, Says Clooney Is Copying

Whether or not Brad Pitt is ever appealing is constantly up for debate on these threads. My opinion is that Brad is a good-looking guy who seems like he needs a really great nap. Attractive, but the styling is everything with Brad. My favorite Brad is some version of his classic red-carpet look – good suit, decent haircut and a shaved face.

Brad’s had to go through the last couple of months of press junkets with what can only be described as an unfortunate mustache. He grew the dreaded ‘stache for the movie he’s filming with Quentin Tarantino, Inglorious Bastards. Tired of criticism, Brad defended the look in a recent comment to People Magazine, and managed to throw an elbow at his frenemy/best bud/soulmate George Clooney.

[Brad Pitt] proudly brushes off any criticism, telling PEOPLE “It’s fashion. Who am I without creative facial hair?”

After hearing about the naysayers, he adds, “I consider it very brave.”

In truth, the ‘stache is for his role in the Quentin Tarantino movie he’s filming, Inglorious Bastards.

After learning that his pal George Clooney is also sporting facial hair, Pitt quips, “I cannot get this guy out of my slipstream. He calls me up and wants to know what I’m wearing – and then he shows up in the same thing. Next thing you know he’s going to have six kids. Just got to tell you it’s getting really old.”

Haha, Brad. I can totally imagine Brad and George gossiping on the phone about what they’re going to wear, but George with six kids? Or should I say, George with six kids from how many different women?

But Brad has a point. Sometimes I do think Clooney’s a little jealous of Brad. Or maybe I’m reading too much into their sometimes homoerotic media tangles.
