Did Pitt Throw a Hissy Fit?

Tom Cruise was the first to get the new Ducati Desmosedici RR motorcycle and Brad Pitt threw a tantrum, at least according to e-mails obtained by TMZ.
Ducati and Pitt
The e-mails, sent by a UPS exec to various freight terminals, instructed that all shipments of the bike be stopped immediately until Brad got his delivered. The first e-mail says the delay "has something to do with Brad Pitt not receiving his first." A second says, "Please be sure and DO NOT DELIVER THESE BIKES UNTIL NEXT TUESDAY. We wouldn't want to upset Brad Pitt."

A UPS source claims the shipping freeze ticked off Denzel Washington and Michael Jordan, both of whom allegedly complained. MJ's rep had no comment, while Denzel's didn't get back to us.

Reps for both Brad and Ducati say it's not true -- that Brad never ordered the bike and was never supposed to receive one. We contacted UPS, but rather than deny the story, the UPS exec repeated several times, "I do not want to comment on that."

17. If it were true UPS would be under serious pressure to explain.
Is it possible. Yes. The egos of these boys-with-toys is phenomenal.

20. It's gotta be totally bogus. Why would Brad Pitt care about who gets their mototcycle first? It would be more accurate, in my opinion, that Pitt wouldn't want to get a bike that Nut Cruise has.

22. For the ignorant: Post #6 does not equal posting first. Your mommys should kick all of you losers off the computer and send you outside to play. I can just see the squealing anklebiters pushing and shoving, crying "first". Pathetic. - and Stupid!

No Brad wouldn't go nuts over a stupid motorcycle. This is obviously made up and a weak attempt by TMZ to get someone to watch their show.
