'Did You Know?' with Brad Pitt

did you know: brad pitt

Brad Pitt was in my studio this season for the first time ever! He stole the hearts of my audience and I think one of the floor lamps from his dressing room.

Since it was his first time in the studio, I did what I always do with a new guest -- I made him get fingerprinted, I frisked him, and I did a background check. Here's some of the things I found out about him.

His real name is William Bradley Pitt. Obviously, he decided to go with Brad, since there are no nicknames for William.

Two weeks before earning his degree in Journalism, he decided to get in his Datsun with $300 in his pocket and move to L.A. to become an actor. It's too bad that didn't work out for him. Stay in school, kids!

He was in a fraternity in college called Sigma Chi, which I hear is also the name for the new Starbucks cup size.

While he was filming "Troy," playing the role of Achilles, he tore his Achilles heel. In the business, that's what they call "method acting."

It was great to have Brad in the studio for the first time, and I hope I don't have to wait 8 more years for him to come back.

Hey Ellen,
"Did you know?" I danced with Brad Pitt at a college night club off of Providence Blvd in Columbia,Mo. He may remember, NOT #@#, because while we were dancing I asked him what he was studying at Mizzou and he said to me " I don't tell many people this because I don't want them to think I'm ...., but I really want to be an actor." I told him I thought that was great and to go for his goals and don't think about everyone thinks. I think he told me because he knew I was not a student there and he knew I was with my younger sister whom was at Mizzou. She was on the basketball team with a fill ride schlorship! The only one of us to get to go to college.

Love love love Brad Pitt. Confidential to Brad Pitt: Your scraggly beard makes you look 100 years old.
