PS. I am still looking for scans of the french Premiere magazine and the Italian Ciak (check left sidebar please). If you can help SimplyBrad.com with these or others, please email me @ webmaster@simplybrad.com.

Be sure to check my friend Yukko‘s BP website. She added some exclusive asian magazine covers featuring our Brad. If anyone could provide scans, that’d be lovely of course. Previews below. Full version at Brilliant Brad Pitt.

Ooh lala Brad features the cover of the Korean GQ magazine (december ’11). My copy will take a little while, perhaps someone could scan it please? Preview cover below (credit to Mr Ebay).

Who can help me on scans please? Scans are always welcome, from whatever (non gossip) magazine, so please donate.

Brad features the latest cover of Ciak magazine (Italy). Thanks Anu. Could someone please provide scans for SB please? Cuz yum.

According to sources the interview is copy & paste thus unworthy to translate.

Went a bit scan crazy going through my private collection. These are just random covers. Mostly old ones.

Again, thank you all so much for your heartwarming emails and comments, you guys don’t know what it means to me…

The ‘Moneyball’ actor – who is renowned for serious roles in movies including ‘The Tree of Life’ and ‘Mr & Mrs Smith’ – was inspired by the 1977 music-based romance movie starring John Travolta because it taught him about life outside of his home-state of Oklahoma.

He said: “Strangely enough, I loved ‘Saturday Night Fever’. I loved it. But it wasn’t, you know, the bad suits and the dancing, although I can do the hustle. It was the idea of people, well, I didn’t know people could live like that. This idea of a different culture.

“I’d seen only my corner of the world which was Oklahoma and Missouri, so it’s the idea that there are complete other ways to attack life out there.“

What could the model-handsome middle-aged half of the celebrity beast known as Brangelina be discussing so intently with the Gen-Y whiz kid who was Russell Brand’s reluctant drug mule in Get Him to the Greek?

Maybe how their new film, Moneyball, which opens today, puts a whole new backroom-negotiating spin on the baseball genre by doing with spreadsheets what sexy Bull Durham did with bedsheets?
