Brad Pitt will embarrass George Clooney in front of the Venice audience… and the reason is shocking!
Between friendship and banter, American star Brad Pitt chose an unconventional way to congratulate his friend and colleague George Clooney at the Venice International Film Festival ceremony, where he was awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement.
Actress Laura Dern read Pitt’s message to the festival audience, which initially praised Clooney’s talent, career and personality, before turning into a sarcastic joke about his dancing skills.
Pitt praised Clooney’s ability to play a variety of roles and achieve excellence in many areas, but he quickly turned to the funny side of the message, saying: “Please keep him off the dance floor,” before ending the speech by describing him as a “very bad dancer.”
The message wasn’t without a more serious side, as Pitt described Clooney as a friend you could rely on in difficult times, praising his role as a father and husband, and his presence as a global figure and advocate for justice issues.
The honor comes as speculation grows about the possibility of Pitt and Clooney returning for the fourth installment of the Ocean’s film franchise, amid speculation over whether the project will enter production any time soon.
