The Friends Episode With Brad Pitt ^new^ Today

Brad Pitt in 2001 was synonymous with sex appeal. People magazine had recently named him the "Sexiest Man Alive" (twice). Yet, Friends stripped him of that gloss. They dressed him in frumpy sweaters, gave him a backstory of being an overweight, uncool teenager ("I was the sixth contestant in a pie-eating contest, and I won!"), and forced him to cower in fear of Rachel’s wrath.

The crown jewel of the episode is the reveal of the club’s mission: They started a rumor that Rachel had both male and female reproductive parts. It was a juvenile, gross-out joke that felt perfectly at home in the Friends universe, and Pitt’s deadpan delivery of the line made it iconic. the friends episode with brad pitt
