Brad Pitt
Once proclaimed as the Sexiest Man Alive by People Magazine, Oklahoma-born
William Bradley Pitt was raised in Missouri where his high school
years were spent in sports, debating, student government - and
an occasional appearance in school musicals.
In
college, he was just about to complete his journalism degree when
he decided to pursue a career in Hollywood.
In the late
'80's, bit parts on TV were followed by his breakthrough role
as a charismatic drifter in Thelma & Louise. And if
critics praised his look, rather than his performance, he later
answered them with a string of successful dramatic roles in A
River Runs Through It, directed by Robert Redford and later
in Legends of the Fall. Other successes followed with performances
in Interview with the Vampire opposite Tom Cruise.
In 1997,
Pitt received the Golden Globe award and an Oscar nomination for
his portrayal of a mental patient in 12
Monkeys. A year later, Pitt was back as Death in Meet
Joe Black and otherwise made headlines in 2000 when he married
actress Jennifer
Aniston, breaking the hearts of adoring female fans in the
process. He later starred in the violent, controversial Fight
Club and in Snatch directed by Guy Ritchie.
Pitt's latest
appearances on the big screen have been in starring role in Troy
and in Ocean's Twelve with actors George
Clooney and Matt
Damon.
The official
news of the rumored breakup between the actor and his wife, Jennifer
Aniston, was announced in January, 2005. Since
then, more news & rumors have kept major tabloids busy reporting
Pitt's new relationship with actress Angelina
Jolie who co-starred with the actor in the comedy Mr.
and Mrs. Smith.
Following
one of the most anticipated announcements of the year, Jolie has
finally given birth to her first child in Namibia, a baby girl
named Shiloh
Nouvel Jolie-Pitt.
On
screen, Pitt is next slated to star in the long-awaited Babel
in which he co-stars with Cate
Blanchett.
