Brad Pitt's Billy Goat Scruff: Yay or Neigh?

When Sting appeared on Hope for Haiti, Elisa told me, she thought, "Excellent! He finally got rid of that horrible beard." Then when Brad Pitt showed up, she realized: "Oh. That's where Sting's horrible beard went to. Only more horrible. And weirder."

Hope For Haiti Now: A Global Benefit For Earthquake Relief held in Los Angeles

Though it appears last weekend's rumors of a Brad-Angelina split aren't true -- something's got to be going on with Pitt to produce that mysterious billy goat beard. With the braids in it.

People magazine speculates it's to get into character for an upcoming role -- to play a guy with a handlebar mustache, not a beard, for a movie that doesn't have a screenplay yet. Mysterious!

Even if it's all for a movie -- if they can put actors in fat suits, they can invent a face merkin for Brad Pitt. Right?

One word:  Ew.

And that isn't even a word!  I want the Brad from Thelma and Louise back . . . pretty please.  He doesn't have to reverse aging, just put on some Levi's and a cowboy hat and get rid of that snack saver hanging off his chin!

I met him when he was barefaced ... but he's been sporting a luxurious mustache for a several years now. I'm not going to bring up the concept of beardbraid to him. [Shudder.]

It definitely needs a trim! And seriously, if you are going to dye the hair on top of your head why not dye the beard to match.

It's the bead. A BEAD on a BRAID. On HIS CHIN.

Turns my stomach a little.

Surely they are beard extensions.

When I first met him he was going through a post-relationship rebellious phase with a full beard (his ex did not like his beard). At one point after we started seeing each other he shaved off his beard. He looked wrong. He looked not like him. So after we started living together I told him that I did not approve the beard shaving because it made him look wrong. So far, the beard has stayed.
