Default Brad Pitt's bike breaks down, gets rescued by paparrazzo

Bauer-Griffin

Even mega-stars are susceptible to the occasional roadside emergency.
Brad Pitt was taking a spin throughout Hollywood, Ca. on Thursday, again rolling out one of his classic motorcycles for an afternoon.
Paparazzi on his tail didn't seem to be the only problem for Angelina Jolie's partner--the bike broke down, forcing Pitt to the curb.

After a few attempts to diagnose the problem, Pitt raised the white flag in a big way--by accepting a ride from a photographer!
Talk about a Hollywood ending--everyone was a winner.

Why didn't he see if he could fix it himself? What's the point in owning a bike if you don't know how to maintain it and do roadside repairs, especially if you have a classic. That's half the fun of owning one.

Hmmmm...

He doesn't seem like the type who would accept a ride from the photogs.

Weird.

At least they were trying to help him.

Red-faced Brad Pitt is rescued by the paparazzi when his motorbike breaks down


By Daily Mail Reporter

source: Red-faced Brad Pitt is rescued by the paparazzi when his motorbike breaks down | Mail Online
Brad Pitt has never exactly been a fan of the paparazzi but the red-faced actor found himself turning to the snappers for help when his motorbike broke down.
The embarrassed actor, 45, was forced to hitch a lift with a member of the paparazzi when he found himself stranded in a residential area.
Dressed in jeans and a casual shirt, the actor looked thrilled as he took his custom-made hardtail bobber for a spin in Los Angeles.

Stopped in his tracks: Brad Pitt was left red-faced when his custom-made motorcycle broke down on a residential street in LA



Non-starter: The actor attempts to fix the bike - but his efforts prove fruitless

However his leisurely ride came to an abrupt end when the bike suddenly stopped.
The frustrated actor, who has a large collection of motorbikes, made numerous attempts to restart it but all of his efforts failed.

With his options dwindling, Brad eventually got a lift from a snapper who had been following him before the incident, although he looked less than pleased by the prospect.

Doting father Brad wore a helmet with the words ‘Daddy’s helmet’ scrawled across it for the jaunt, leaving onlookers wondering which of his youngsters had personalised it for him.
Brad’s long term partner Angelina Jolie recently admitted that the pair are open to adopting more children.

Out of options; A frustrated Brad realises that his leisurely ride has came to an abrupt end and looks to a snapper fro help


The actress, who made an appearance on CNN'S Anderson Cooper 360 to mark World Refugee Day in her role as Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations, confirmed that the couple intends to expand their already large brood.

'We love children, we want a big family, so we never - you know, never say no,' she said.

The couple’s current brood consists of adopted children Maddox, seven, Pax, four, and three-year-old Zahara, and biological children Shiloh, two, and 11-month-old twins Vivienne and Knox.
Brad has previously admitted that he enjoys riding motorbikes because he feels like he becomes anonymous when he puts his helmet on.

'This is my anonymity,' he told W magazine. 'With it, I’m just another a**hole on the streets.'


Unlikely saviour: Brad leaves his bike on the street and gets a lift from a paparazzi photographer

As a biker - he looks like a douche. He's wearing a helmet & gloves but no other protective gear... and we all know that road-rash looks oh-so attractive especially with tats...



Apparently he was on his way to a meeting when it broke down thats why he accepted the lift. He was going to be late.... like he doesn't carry a mobile phone & could call ahead to tell them... Idiot.

That is not attempting to fix the bike - he's fiddling with the side stand. Attempting to fix the bike would mean touching the engine/plugs etc and getting his Hollywood manicure dirty.

Awww, bless him! He picked an outfit that he thought would match the style of the bike! Fail.

And he didn't have any money on him either? There were no payphones? No business of any kind nearby that would be more than happy to let him use their phone? My bike gloves have zippers in the back that the waterproof covers can be stored in. I always kept a £1 coin in each glove for pay phones in case of emergency in an area where the mobile phone signal was weak or non-existant. In fact... *runs off to check gloves* Yes, I still have the emergency money in there. I started doing that because I was spending a lot of time on temperamental but much loved old bikes.
