Brad Pitt Gets Subdued By His Own Security Detail
Brad Pitt was on hand for a premiere screening of his new movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button at the Bruin Theater in Westwood, CA last night. Arriving a half-hour before the event was to start, Brad caused a bit of a stir amongst the assembled paps who were there to photograph his every move … when they started to crowd around to photograph him, Brad’s hired security detail sprung into action. BUT, the overeager security guard did NOT push back the photogs … instead, he pounced on Brad Pitt himself and roughed him up a bit:
In a bizarre incident at Monday night’s Los Angeles premiere of his movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Brad Pitt was grabbed, pushed and spun around by a plainclothes security guard who had been hired to protect him. Pitt arrived half an hour early for the screening at the Bruin Theater in Westwood, where paparazzi promptly descended upon him. But instead of shooing the photographers away, the security guard instead went after Pitt, spinning him around and pulling him backwards – all while clutching in his teeth what appeared to be a brochure for a karate studio. A shaken Pitt had words with the guard, broke free and waited out the ruckus in an upstairs bathroom area. No news yet on the security guard’s fate.
HMMM. Mebbe it was the cheap porn’stache that threw off the security guard. I mean, when Brad first showed off his new facial hair, even we goss lovers weren’t entirely sure it was him. In any event, I don’t suspect that this very zealous security guard will be getting much work in the future “protecting” celebrity clients. I think it’s pretty much assured that he will never work for the Brangelina brood in any capacity. Glad to see that Brad managed to survive this scuffle with his own security guard in one piece. I understand that afterward, Brad was happy to smile and wave to the folks who came out to see him at last night’s screening event.

I kinda like the stache. I don’t know it kinda grows on you, but I think Brad can make anything look good…he is one of the few men that can do that

Is he trying to pull off a Paul Newman look?

The stache reminds me of Cary Elwes in The Princess Bride

The trash stache is def a problem! I’m sure the security guard was only trying to get hold of him so he could shave the stache off before the paps could take his pics!!

…. About the stache. Brad is AN ACTOR. Could it be that it is for A MOVIE…? I would say no, he is NOT trying to pull off a “Paul Newman look”. DUH
