“It Baffles Me,” Brad Pitt’s Look in New Steamy Shots Sparks Controversy

Brad Pitt made a rare appearance shirtless, revealing his toned physique in a promotional photo for his upcoming Grand Prix film, F1. A 30-second teaser for the highly anticipated summer action movie was released, showcasing the 61-year-old heartthrob in a thrilling glimpse that left fans eagerly awaiting its debut.

The image also provides a glimpse of his collection of tattoos, each representing different moments of his life. Notably, all the designs are his personal tattoos, not ones created for the role.

Brad began collecting tattoos during his relationship with Angelina Jolie, who is known for her own array of ink. Some of his Cambodian-inspired designs closely resemble those worn by the Maria actress. Among his many markings are several dedicated to Angelina, such as her birthdate and the letter “A” in tribute to her name.

The steamy photos of the movie star sparked a strong reaction from fans. “The whole tattoo thing baffles me. Everyone wants to be cool, with the tatts. But the cool people will be those who have none,” one person remarked. Another commenter added, “Great shape, but the tatty tattoos make him look somehow very ordinary.”

A different observer shared their thoughts, saying, “Even if you’re a man as attractive and rich as Brad, getting relationship tattoos is a major turnoff and will weigh on your future intimate connection with anyone else when you’re with someone new. I highly advise against it or be ready to get them removed when the tattoo relationship ends.”

Another fan offered a perspective on relationship-related tattoos, noting that they may serve as lasting reminders of past experiences and could influence future relationships.

Last year, Brad Pitt made a memorable appearance at the Silverstone Circuit, generating excitement both online and at the F1 Grand Prix of Great Britain. Sporting a shorter haircut with light blonde tones and dark roots, the 60-year-old actor stood out in an all-white racing suit representing the fictional “APX GP” team.

While he looked undeniably dashing in his racing gear, spectators couldn’t help but notice some striking changes in his appearance.

As soon as the videos surfaced online, fans couldn’t stop raving about the handsome star, applauding his timeless good looks and youthful appearance. One fan remarked, “Wow. He looks amazing,” while another observed that he “looks younger.” A third admirer added, “He looks really healthy now and younger.”

However, many online users felt that the Fight Club actor looked noticeably different. One Facebook user commented, “His face looks chubby with that hair, or something is different.” The actor’s chin also drew attention, with one person asking, “What is happening to his chin?” Another observer noted, “He looked good last year. He looks a bit odd now.”

Meanwhile, Tom Cruise, 62, captured the spotlight at the 2025 Super Bowl during Fox’s pregame show with a passionate speech that energized fans. However, it wasn’t just his words that sparked conversation — it was his appearance.
