Says "I had a little mishap"

Brad Pitt’s motorcycle accident made headlines a few weekends ago. Although there were several different versions of what exactly happened when Brad “crashed”, the video (that was released a few days later) shows that Brad went in between a row of parked cars and a row of cars waiting at either a stop light or a stop sign. Brad clipped one of the parked car’s rearview mirrors, and he lost his balance, going down. He wasn’t hurt, his bike was scratched up, and there was very minor damage to the parked car.

While Brad was in Japan, for the Japanese premiere of Inglourious Basterds, he answered some questions about the crash. As it turns out, Brad wasn’t riding on a new bike that he was unfamiliar with – he was actually on his “favorite” motorcycle.

Brad’s beard is also making international headlines. He showed up in Japan with damn beads in the dreadlocks, and now people are wondering what the hell is up with Brad’s grooming habits. Yesterday, we explored the theory that Brad is growing it out for his role in The Lost City of Z. Now Hello Magazine has a theory that Brad might be participating in ‘No Shave November’, which they describe as “a growing movement among young men who have vowed to not use their razor for a month…Social networking sites like Facebook have ‘No Shave November’ groups with over 10,000 members currently participating in what may become the scruffiest month of the year.” Except that Brad has been growing his junk out for months. So maybe he feels strongly about “No Shave 2009”. There is no ring to that.
