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."

64. I don't believe this story. Mailing companies like UPS and FEDEX just ship. They don't care or have the authority to change the who, what, when, where, why about the packages unless the sender, Ducati, says to stop shipping. The emails don't even indicate that Brad had a hissy fit. For all you know he called to find out when he was getting his bike. Then Ducati or UPS execs got all huffy and sent emails about a spoiled celebrity. The funny thing is according to your own story it was Michael Jordan and Denzel Washington who had a tantrum not Brad.
