The Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt is popular for eating food onscreen, but one day it got a little embarrassing, and he learned to pace himself.
Brad Pitt appeared on the July 2 episode of New Height’s podcast for the promotion of his latest movie, F1. The conversation reminded him of an embarrassing incident when Jason and Travis asked the actor about his eating habits on set.
Pitt first laughed about how he is always seen eating something in his movies and then revealed a not-so-pleasant experience he had while eating for a particular scene.
In one of his early films, Brad Pitt said he was filming in a cramped cafe with approximately 60 persons on set. His character hadn’t eaten in days. So for that particular scene, he had to swiftly scarf down a loaded plate of beans and bacon. In order to stay true to the required role, he finished the entire plate in all four takes.
“I just powered down this plate of beans,“ he said. “Take two, do the same thing. Take three, I do the same thing. Take four, I do the same thing. Something hit me. There was nothing I could do. I was stuck in this chair, nature took its course.“
Pitt said he thought no one on the set had noticed when he passed gas. But soon entire crew on set fled. He said, “Ever since then, I pace myself.“ He didn’t specify on which movie set he ate beans.
Brad Pitt’s movie F1 is in cinemas.
