However, fans didn’t just react with horror to Brad’s face. The outfit that Pitt sported looked like a contender for the Worst Dressed Award of 2022, sparking a flood of wickedly funny responses! Get the details and check out the cover for yourself below.
Brad Pitt – Is That YOU?!
Oh, the horror! How did the famously handsome Sexiest Man Alive end up looking like he suffered from more plastic surgery procedures than the entire Kardashian family combined? Add in a costume that looks like a theft from a Las Vegas showgirl, and GQ’s cover pic of Brad Pitt went viral for all the wrong reasons.
And Twitter went wild with responses. For instance, several informed GQ that they made Brad look “plastic.” As for Pitt’s hair? “Embalming fluid?” theorized one Twitter critic. But some got more direct. “He looks dead after too much plastic surgery,” stated one perhaps too truthful commentator.
Pitt’s outfit came in for its own world of wisecrack wisdom. For example, some thought that Brad appeared to have stolen his costume from Liberace. And others thought that the blue top looked so bright that Pitt seemed deathly pale in response. As for his jewelry? Several Twitter commentators theorized that the 58-year-old actor seemed sick as a result of those unaccustomed adornments.
Brad Pitt – Twitter Turns Brad Pitt GQ Cover Pic Into Meme Land!
While fans tried to come up with other famous folks who looked like the newly bedazzled Brad Pitt, one Twitter creator thought they found it. David Bowie! As a result, memes of Pitt as Bowie flowed in. But the comparison to Bowie angered some fans, starting a separate debate. And one tech wizard expressed hopes that Brad Pitt memes would continue to spawn.
“David Bowie was astonishingly intuitive about change. He didn’t sleep in a casket, or get photographed just after he got out of one,” argued the fan. As a result, others got involved discussing exactly why GQ made Pitt look like a victim of either embalming fluid of plastic surgery. For instance, OK magazine noted several Twitter commentators felt GQ editors neglected their Adobe tech skills. But whether too much air-brushing or too little, no one seemed to cheer for Pitt’s GQ cover pic!

Brad Pitt is the most beautiful man in the world to me. But this cover is awful. Shame on the stylist, the hair and make up, the photographer, the art director, the editor of GQ. I used to art direct/retouch many major magazines and ad campaigns. I retired. Looks like I’m needed! He looks dead. Embalmed. The colours, the eyes, the – well… the everything. Brad, I hope you’re mad at them. I am!!!
