LOL: Brad Pitt Gets Chocolate Statuette Instead of Golden Oscar
Brad Pitt might have lost out on the Best Actor Oscar on Sunday, February 22, but he still has a reason to smile. The 45-year-old actor has reportedly been sent a solid chocolate bust in his likeness as a consolation prize from deodorant brand Axe.
Brad was nominated for Best Actor at the 2009 Oscars for his role in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”. But the longtime partner of Angelina Jolie lost out to Sean Penn, who was awarded for his portrayal of gay rights activist Harvey Milk in “Milk”.
And bosses at Axe, in an attempt to promote their new Dark Temptation fragrance
, decided to reward Brad with a statuette of his own in chocolate weighing 10 pounds (4.5 kilograms). “We still feel your performance deserves a statue, one that’s a bit sweeter,” an accompanying note read.
