Brad Pitt is many things: a seasoned actor, an internationally agreed-upon heartthrob, and now...a comedian?
At the 26th annual Screen Actors Guild awards on Sunday night, Pitt won the best supporting actor in a movie award for his role in Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood, and he took the opportunity to a) joke about being on Tinder, and b) lightheartedly reference the rumors about director Quentin Tarantino s love of feet. Read the full text of Pitt s acceptance speech below:
"I m going to add this to my Tinder profile. Thank you, my brothers, my sisters, this means so much—more than I can possibly fathom. I want you to know I watch everything, I watch you all, and the work has been mesmerizing, so I thank you. I want to thank my costars, Leo, Margot Robbie, Margot Robbie s feet, Margaret Qualley s feet, Dakota Fanning s feet...seriously, Quentin has separated more women from their shoes than the TSA.
Now, we all know what we do is a team sport and we elevate each other, and I got to work with some amazing, amazing people. Mr. Pacino, Mr. Dern, Kurt Russell, Leo, Dakota, Tim...where are you guys? Ms. Butters, a bunch of the new generation, Margaret Qualley, Austin Butler. You all elevated my game, and I hope I did the same for you. Let s be honest, it was a difficult part. Guy who gets high, takes his shirt off, and doesn t get on with his wife? It was a big stretch."
Pitt has emerged as the unofficial hero of this awards season, and tonight he proved he s got comedy chops to boot. It s hard to imagine he d actually favor Tinder over the elite dating app Raya, but all we re saying is, we d swipe right.
