Stop the presses, shave the heads, and someone cue the Ocean’s Eleven soundtrack—Brad Pitt just rolled up to 2025 looking like he took a time machine straight out of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. That’s right, the man, the myth, the cheekbones—Bradley “Forever Fine” Pitt—is once again rocking the buzz cut like it’s 2004 and flip phones are still a thing.
At 61 years young (because Brad doesn’t age, he just vibes), the Hollywood heartthrob was spotted cruising the streets of Los Angeles on May 22 with a head so freshly shaved it probably gave the breeze a standing ovation. Witnesses say the sun reflected off his scalp like it was trying to blind the haters.
The buzz cut, made famous during his assassin-rom-com era (Mr. & Mrs. Smith, a.k.a. the movie that launched a thousand tabloids), is back—and it’s sharper than your ex’s comebacks. Is it for a role? Is it for summer? Is it because razors were on sale at CVS? We don’t know, but we’re not questioning the man who once made eating a shrimp cocktail look Oscar-worthy.
And he didn’t stop there. Oh no. Brad added short facial hair to the mix, giving strong “cool professor who rides a motorcycle and only grades in vibes” energy. It’s giving minimalist, it’s giving mysterious, it’s giving dad-hot deluxe.
While the rest of us are just trying to survive another summer with a working fan and some iced coffee, Brad Pitt is out here time-traveling through hairstyles like it’s his side hustle.
One thing’s for sure: when Brad shaves his head, the world listens. And screams. And maybe downloads Mr. & Mrs. Smith again for “research purposes.”
