Brad Pitt’s Most “Disgusting” Habit Comes to Light Amid Ugly Spat With Angelina Jolie and His Children
Before becoming a Hollywood heartthrob, Brad Pitt had no problem engaging in questionable hygiene choices.
SUMMARY
Brad Pitt was the undisputed champion of a revolting game between him and his roommates during his struggling days in LA.
Pitt’s questionable hygiene choices didn’t come to an end after his ascend to Hollywood, as he confessed to resorting to baby wipes often during his time on Inglorious Basterds.
With no longer in the life of his kids following his separation from Angelina Jolie, the actor might’ve finally ameliorated his hygiene habits.
Years prior to making it big in Hollywood, Brad Pitt and Jason Priestley resided in a crappy part of LA along with another roommate in a two-bedroom apartment. Following their poor financial state at the time, they mostly lived on ramen noodles, generic beer, and Marlboro Light cigarettes.
But while the food condition wasn’t exactly up to the standards of a gourmet meal, it was certainly divine compared to their hygiene habits. Recounting his experience with the Inglourious Basterds Star, Priestley recalled they used to indulge in a revolting game, in which Pitt always triumphed with ease.

Brad Pitt Would Easily Go Days Without Showering
During his appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark, the Private Eye Star recounted his brief time living with Brad Pitt, stating that the Oscar-winner would happily go days without a shower.
This was a result of the game the three roommates engaged in to see who could go the longest without showering. Looking back in hindsight, Priestley reasonably was revolted by their early deeds, stating that he doesn’t think Pitt is doing it anymore.
“We used to play this game to see who could go the longest without showering,” Priestly recalled. “I think about it now and I’m like, ‘Dude, how disgusting. What were you thinking?… I don’t think he does that anymore. But back then he could go a long time without showering,”
While Pitt was the undisputed champion of bad hygiene habits at the time, Priestley stressed he was a fine roommate, at least astronomically better than the other guy, whom he deemed a disaster.

The Tales of Brad Pitt’s Hygiene Habits Don’t Stop There
Although the Beverly Hills, 90210 star is hopeful that Brad Pitt is long past his bad hygiene era, his confession to Eli Roth back in Inglorious Basterds said otherwise. During his time on Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds, Pitt made headlines for advising his whiffy costars to resort to baby wipes instead of showering.
Considering the Seven Star was engaged to Angelina Jolie at the time, being a father of six, the actor too had to resort to baby wipes after being peed on by his kids, stressing it’s a notable alternative. Eli Roth recalled Pitt’s confession (via People),

“He shared that when you’re sweating and don’t have time to take a shower, you just take a baby wipe and rub it under your armpits. After a scene, Brad had to get next to me for a close-up shot, and he said, ‘Damn, you’re ripe… I said, ‘I didn’t have time to shower.’
He said, ‘Baby wipes, man, baby wipes. I got six kids. All you’ve got to do is just take them, a couple quick wipes under the pits. Man, I’m getting [peed] on all day. I don’t have time to take a shower.”
Brad Pitt
With Brad Pitt no longer attached to his family following his ugly divorce from Angelina Jolie, it’s reasonable to assume the actor might’ve finally progressed from baby wipes to regular showers.
