Iconizing the modern Hollywood heartthrob, Brad Pitt has appeared on Hottest, Sexiest and Most Powerful lists in every magazine from People to Elle to Premiere. Most recently, he was ranked #10 in Forbes' The Celebrity 100 list (his gal pal, Angelina was #3), which can be attributed to a combination of his impressive career history, extensive amounts of charity involvement across the globe and, of course, his sexy persona. In his two decade career, Brad has cemented himself as one of the greatest actors of our generation, and with "Inglorious Basterds," his star is sure to shine for many years to come.
Click on the photo below to see how Mr. Pitt got his start (hint:"Growing Pains" and "21 Jump Street") and where else his career has taken him along the way. Then, keep reading for more on his Hollywood history (which, let's be honest, specifically surrounds his real-life female counterparts) after the jump.
Probably more followed than his career, Brad has had a short but tumultuous romantic history. After dating actress Juliette Lewis, Brad dated, became engaged to in 1996 and then split one year later with Gwyneth Paltrow, dated and then married Jennifer Aniston in 2000 even appearing in an episode of "Friends" before having a controversial divorce with her in 2005. He began a whirlwind love affair with Angelina Jolie after the two costarred in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."
Though Brad and Angelina have given birth and adopted a total of six children, the pair remain unmarried (he recently told Parade magazine they would be married when everyone was allowed to be) and tabloids will no doubt continue to try to push the idea that there is turmoil or drama there. But well all know better than that! Brad's no bastard right?
