Wolfs star Brad Pitt was surprised during the Mexican Grand Prix when an adoring female fan rushed the actor, catching him off guard, forcefully grabbing him, and invading his personal space. While Brad handled the physical attack like a champ, his fans were not quite as polite as the actor.
Brad Pitt caught the eye of millions of female fans in the 1991 film Thelma and Louise. While his part as the cowboy hitchhiker was not a large role for the 27-year-old actor, it was his first major role, earning him a whopping $6000 paycheck and a lifelong title as a Hollywood sex symbol.
So it comes as no surprise more than three decades later that the 60-year-old still can cause his female fans to get a little out of control when meeting the Hollywood hunk. This seemingly happened recently when a female fan rushed the actor, aggressively locked her arms around his neck, and eagerly kissed his cheek.
When the fan attack occurred, Pitt was filming scenes for his new movie, F1. While Brad seemingly laughed off the incident, the female fan managed to land the kiss while capturing the proof via video.
Brad was a good sport and remained unfazed by the display of affection, revealing he was simply happy it was a kiss and not a ‘punch in the face.’ One insider tells the Daily Mail, “Brad is so relaxed and is never negative over positive fan interactions.” However, the aggressive fan’s behavior enraged many of the actor’s fans.
Brad Pitt Fans Blast Aggressive Fan As Disgusting And Disrespectful
Pitt claims that he didn’t feel threatened by the fans and at the end of the day appreciates that they still adore him. It didn’t take long before fans hit the comment sections and social media platforms blasting the ‘desperate’ fan.
“This is absolutely disrespectful,’ wrote one person on X.’ First, you’re invading his personal space and HE’S HUMAN. Second, you don’t have his permission you didn’t even ask about it. Third, he is tired of the filming and anyways he went back to take a pic with you, can you act with respect?”
“Crazy old women. Poor Brad. That was harassment,” another irritated fan adds. One more writes, “Fans are too entitled. He looks bothered by it in the video as he has every right to be. He doesn’t deserve this disgusting treatment.”
Brad Pitt is currently involved in a serious relationship with Ines de Ramon. It is unknown how Ines feels about the female fan attacking her man. However, she is likely used to other women drooling over her man by now. It kind of comes with the territory.
In the past, crazed, adoring female fans were known to chase down their favorite celebrities and rock stars. Some even went as far as stalking. They often mauled the stars, some even ripping the clothes from their bodies. However, times have changed. So, how far is considered too far? What is out of line for an excited fan when meeting their favorite celebrities?
