HOLLYWOOD ladykiller Brad Pitt has ordered aides to find him a GAY movie role.
The 42-year-old actor is desperate to cash in on the success of gay cowboy movie Brokeback Mountain, which is up for countless awards.

Brad — who is expecting a baby with Angelina Jolie — wants to find a script which portrays the “ultimate gay love story”.

A source said: “Brad has asked his people to find him a script to play a gay man. He wants it to be a story that appeals to both men and women and he wants it to be the edgiest work he’s done.

“He’s seen the critical acclaim that Brokeback Mountain has won and he wants a piece of it. Brad knows it would be seen as shocking to take on a gay role because he’s seen as such a heart-throb.

“But he has never shied away from taking on controversial films, and he has often chosen to do smaller, more challenging movies, rather than go for the big box-office smash.”

Brad starred opposite Tom Cruise in Interview With The Vampire — a story which hinted at a romance between two male vampires.

He also wore tiny tunics and flexed bronzed muscles to play hunky Greek warrior Achilles in Troy.

Wasn't it Jen who tried to keep him from roles like this, so it would not hurt his image and all?

Hasn't he forgotten how the audience reacted on Oprah
to Interview with a Vampire? They practically booed him
and Tom Cruise during their publicity appearance.

really?!
but then again the movie is over 10 years old, maybe most people were more narrow-minded than now?!

gay is the new popular.

His movie career very well might be on the line now. It would be interesting to see what the turnout will be for Jesse James, with all that has happened in his personal life, I read an article proclaiming that the American public would be making their own voices heard by not going to any of his movies. Only time can tell, but I do think it's true, he's never been that great an actor anyway and I won't be hurting too much by not spending my 7bucks to see his stupid movies. And now he has to jump into the popular bandwagon, what douchebag with no personality or sense of self.

Yes, yes, this too is all Jen's fault, just like everything else.

I don't personally believe this article. I doubt he is so stupid to jump on such an obvious bandwagon. Then again, he doesn't strike me as a junior Einstein.

Quick Brad! Jump on before the bandwagon leaves without you!
