Brad Pitt is so gross...
Brad Pitt stopped by the "New Heights" podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce where he shared a cringe story from his early acting days. He said his character scarfed down a whole plate of beans, but then, "We're shooting in this little tiny cafe…There was nothing I could do… and nature took its course," which led to the entire crew to flee the set after what he described as "the most diabolical something" filling the room.
Sad news… Michael Madsen, a regular presence in the Quentin Tarantino cinematic universe, passed Thursday from an apparent cardiac arrest at his Malibu home.

And Julian McMahon, known for starring roles on "Nip/Tuck" and "Charmed," passed on Wednesday following a private battle with cancer.

Julian was 56.
