Brad Pitt’s Bringing the Hotness Back in W Magazine

Ha. That’s a joke right there, because duh, as if it ever left.

These photos are of a very sultry Brad Pitt, who was interviewed most recently by W magazine, where he talked topics like crying, and hotness, “dying well,” and other really rather stupid questions by the interviewer. Somebody needs to find a new job for critic Lynn Hirschberg (the, um, aforementioned interviewer), because her silly starstruckness really shows in the dialog, bloody hell.

Here’s a few excerpts, and you can read the rest of the interview at W‘s site.

Lynn Hirschberg: Which movie has made you cry?

Brad Pitt: I’m not much of a crier at films, but there was one…I was coming back from Cabo on my way to Montreal, and I got hit with Montezuma’s revenge. I could not keep anything down. I was stuck in a hotel room with no windows and was just doing what you do when you’re sick. On day two of this extremely painful episode, I watched a film called Life as a House. Kevin Kline is an architect and learns he has terminal cancer. He’s estranged from his teenage son and decides they’re going to finish this house. I don’t know if it would still hit me the same way, but on my 27th hour of pure wretchedness, this movie just crushed me. I should watch it again to see if it has the same effect.

LH: Have your parents seen you die in a movie?

BP: They would have had to. I die ­really well, by the way. It’s one of my strong points. I just take a bullet well.

LH: Do you have trouble watching yourself die?

BP: God, no. I’m just checking the boxes. Hit that. Missed that. Hit that moment. Missed that one. God, I’d like to do that one again.

LH: Do you really have characters that you’d like to do over?

BP: Um…the first 12 years of my career, I would think.

LH: No!

BP: Okay…first 11 years.

LH: What was the first role you auditioned for?

BP: My agent sent me out for two films: One of them was The Accused with Jodie Foster. I was so excited.

LH: Did you go out for the part of the rapist?

BP: Probably not. With this face, I was probably up for the guy with the conscience. I called up afterward and asked, “How did I do?” There were three seconds of silence and then: “Have you ever thought about acting classes?”

Wait, what? Brad Pitt? Acting classes? What the hell kind of alternate dimension are we talking here? Also, Lynn Hirschberg: shut up.

  • And to think that Brad was born in my home state of Oklahoma! I’ve never seen anything like that walking around here, so I’ll just go back to drooling over that unreal hot sexy luscious guy!

  • Sarah, seriously, do you even read the other posts on this site?? You’re so frigging repetitive. it won’t take you that long. I should figure you wouldn’t, though- you barely ever proofread your own posts.

  • Look at his old movies and you can agree that he really needed acting classes. Also, he did have a skin issue. Photo touch ups are great.

  • I love how he’s basically casually referring to himself as being beautiful with the “this face?” comment. Hey, I appreciate honesty in people, and false modesty is the worst.

  • Ever since they showed those nudes of Brad, he just hasn’t had the appeal. I mean, it’s so tiny. I was just crushed!
