It's been a while since Brad Pitt graced the cover of a magazine in the way that he used to and I'm not talking about appearing in a photo (snapped by the paps), for a story, but about the real deal, one of those covers that make the ladies go wild and the men ask themselves why were they born into this cruel world.

Well, ladies, hang on to your panties 'cause Brad is coming in a newsstand near you, once the Art Issue of 'Vanity Fair' comes out. And the fact that a semi-naked Brad Pitt is art is not even a joke, mind you. There are few celebrities out there who can pose in what would be otherwise trashy or sexy pictures and who come off as art, and Brad is definitely one of those...

So, Brad Pitt in his underwear is a good thing. Even if most of the bloggers commented on his more recent public appearances in a more negative way, saying that he has begun to look his age, that he lost some of his charms and sexual magnetism and that there are white hairs in his beard, one can't but admit that he looks positively gorgeous.

Sure, maybe he'll never make a film like 'Fight Club', since both he and Angie said that they would only star from now on in movies they consider suitable for their children, but at least we'll always have the memory of what he used to be to keep us alive. That, and those two pics of him in the rain...
