AIBU to wonder WTAF Brad Pitt is banging on about?

[girlynut]

Just seen the new Chanel No.5 ad. Erm...

Perhaps it's just too profound for me to understand.

He's not thick. I knew someone who shared a room with him at college. Don't think he finished though, went off to do The Acting.

I love him in everything.

er what's with the lanky hair and the "I just showered in ditch water" look? I don't get it... But even more so as when I saw the ad I didn't recognise him so thought he was just some random actor rambling on about nothing. Which says more about how out of touch I am with celebrity / film star life I guess...

Script is dire. Who writes these things I mean, dreams come before plans, not the other way around, no perfume is "inevitable" and since when do journeys have to end, or humans go on indefinitely. And that's before you consider the lack of any form of flow or logic behind the individual statements. vom

YANBU. I don't get the Keira Knightley one either. Is it saying wear Coco Mademoiselle and be a pricktease?

Oh and what hullaballoo said - but most things make me think of Fry & Laurie

Philip Glenister? Really??? The very thought makes me feel physically sick.

Whilst I agree it's shit we can hardly blame brad! I'm guessing he's being told what to say and how to say it. If someone wanted to pay me that much I'd talk shit too!

We met Stephen Fry last week, degutastic and he was really lovely. My ds asked him for a hug and said it was like hugging a big, friendly bear.

Look, perfume ads are always pretentious wankery. Fact

He was offered £6.5m to ramble for 30 seconds - who wouldn't? He probably did loads of versions and this is the one the creative director, the producer and the ad director wanted - not his fault.

I've always thought he seemed like a good egg and have it on first hand knowledge from several people that he is a lovely egg and a joy to work with, unlike many A Listers.

He isn't going to discover a cure for cancer but he doesn't pretend otherwise i think he is as smart as the next person and is also self-deprecating about himself which is attractive.

He also donates a lot to charities and doesn't feel the need to be given a sainthood for it step forward Bono

So there. and this has nothing to do with me wanting to do him since Thelma and Louise

Channel No 5, a bottle of Brad's brain farts, I'll buy it.

Didn't mean to gush quite so much

The thing I like about the Gordons Gin advert is I'm watching it and thinking in this fantasy advert land scenario of Philip Glenister and Gin and Tonic, things could really.. ahem... happen here.

I had similar inappropiate thoughts about Take That in the Christmas M&S advert. In my version though there was no Myleen Klass or haughty Erin supermodel lady getting in the damm way...It was just me and Take That in a snowed in country house.

The Brad ad? I'm thinking this man has a pointy chin.

Do you remember Brad used to love EastEnders and used to watch it with Jen A.

He was brilliant as the traveller in Lock Stock and two broken barrells or whatever it was called, and he was also brilliant in Fight club. He used to dress up in a gorilla suit and play pranks as well. That seems to be the real him, not all this other baloney.

Clever him for bagging all that money though.

He looks like he is trying so very hard not to laugh. Thought the same when he appeared in that friends episode- damn he looked fine then- now, not so much.

Narked What can we say, one womans vom fest is anothers hot lovin' spoonful of horn

I think Angelina has encouraged the unwashed hillbilly thing as a deterrent.

He just needs a bath, haircut and shave.

He looks good to me. Although he appears deeply frightened of something from 0.20 - just after he's said 'And there you are'... what on earth is he looking at?

Brad has performed a miracle insofar as I now actually prefer the Keira Knightly Coco advert.

I honestly think that since Brads been brainwashed with Angelina he has gone ever so slightly round the bend and thinks he is in fact the Dalai Lama.

The man cannot act. Sorry, but it was DIRE. And I like him.

Cringe

I think he looks like he is taking the piss quite frankly. I wish he'd said "I love to Dance" at the end of it and then run away. There's always lots of running or stomping hither and thither in perfume ads.
The beard is bad - it's a bit Acker Bilk.

I could tell you the meaning of life for half of that haha!
I am not all that keen on Brad, he does nothing for me :/ I think its a blonde thing, I like dark haired men. Hugh jackman, Christian bale types, swoon!
