Brad's Jab at Mel Gibson

Posted Sep 11th 2006 1:13PM by TMZ Staff

While in Toronto promoting his new film, Brad Pitt referenced Mel Gibson's recent DUI arrest as cameras snapped his photo. After cracking a funny face, the actor joked, "That's the picture that's going to end up when I have a breakdown or something ... when I get arrested for a DUI late at night, make racial slurs or something."

Pitt also talked candidly about his children with Angelina Jolie, worrying about them seeing his past films. "Oh my God, what did I do? What are they gonna see? Films from the past, I start making that list and ah, but it definitely colors what I'll approach in the future, I'll try to be a little bit more mature about my decisions."

While Maddox, Zahara and baby Shiloh probably won't be seeing Pitt's "Seven" or "Interview with the Vampire" anytime soon, it's Angie's repertoire he should be worried about -- "Original Sin" and "Gia," anyone?

1. Grow up, Brad and crawl out from Angelina's apron strings!

2. I would think Brad would much rather have his kids see his movies then find out the way he and momma Angie came to be.

3. It appears he lost a great sense of self.. His identity now appears to be that of Angelinas..
Hmmm.. Individuality anyone? Brad is a total dork. Period. End of story.

5. Brad, get over yourself. You pretend to be high and mighty trying to save the world, and not marry until everyone is equal, and then you resort to acting like a 2 year old. Go away.

6. What a idiot. Mel Gibson is ten times the man Brad will ever be. He already
looks and acts stupid, he doesn't even have to be drunk. How dare he make
fun of other actors when he is a total joke.

8. Actually, Sharon, YES I DO SEE BRAD ACTING VERY CHILDISH. How much more does Mel have to pay/apologize. Brad mocking Mel is incredibly INSULTING. Brad is just a follower==Angie, you want to save the planet? Alright, I will, too! etc. etc. Sharon, do YOURSELF a favor and grow up!

9. First of all that was hardly a jab. More like a reference to the fact that the second a celebrity does something wrong...the pictures of them used in articles are always the crappy scary ones. Second I don't understand why eveyone is so concerned with how Brad and Angie got together. Did it effect YOU PERSONALLY? NO? Then get over it already!

10. if i need to grow up, why are respoding to me, child!!!

11. What you didn't see was the question asked before that last remark. A female reporter mentioned having her first child. and what you saw was the tale-end of his response. And if any of you have children, you can relate to everything that Brad pitt said.

12. Brad mocking Mel Gibson is totally uncalled for. He has made a complete
nut out of himself over the last year. Besides he and Angelina are on
the crazy side and don't even seem to be drinking. Now he thinks he's a
expert on everything, even diaper rash. Mel and Tom are both a credit
compared to him. He goes on about kids, kids, and how good he is,
says it okay to do drugs if you don't hurt anyone, doesn't think it is necessary
to get married and yet has the nerve to make fun of other people. Idiot.

14. You people are ridiculous. This had nothing to do with Mel Gibson. If you get a chance, watch the whole press conference. The cameras were clicking like mad drowning what Brad was saying. Then one of the moderators told the photogs to calm down so everyone could hear Brad speak. Brad decided to give them a shot, while saying I'm sure this is the shot that will end up published when I get a breakdown, or dui arrest. Has nothing to do with Mel. It's just Brad acting very goofy, thank God he doesn't take himself so seriously.

15. Brad shouldn't worry at all about his "scary" movies....babies are going to see mom looking like a naked crack whore in Gia. Angelina is a wierdo, poor kids. As for Brad I used to have such a respect for the way he carried himself, lately all I see in him is Angelina. Maybe before he was just acting the way he did because thats how Jenn acted, who knows.
