Brad Pitt Is Banned From Entering China
Pitt is loved by people across the globe, irrespective of borders, race, color, or religion. But China is that one country that has downright banned him.
Following the success of films like ‘Interview with the Vampire’, ‘SE7EN’, and ‘12 Monkeys’, Pitt starred as the Austrian mountaineer Heinrich Harrer in ‘Seven Years in Tibet.’
The film focused on the time period between 1944 and 1951, and his experiences with the 14th Dalai Lama while China invaded Tibet. To prepare for the role, Pitt trained in climbing the Dolomites and wearing lederhosen.
The People’s Republic of China took offense to the portrayal of its military and the positive portrayal of the 14th Dalai Lama. As a result, Pitt, Thewlis, and director Jean-Jacques Annaud were banned from entering China. Celebs like Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, and Martin Scorsese have also been banned by the country.

Emily Ratajkowski And Brad Pitt Break Up
Rumors of Pitt and Emily Ratajkowski dating each other were doing the rounds. However, it was recently made clear by the model that she has parted ways with the actor.
In a recent interview, Emily said that she is learning to “let go.” “I’m newly single for basically the first time in my life ever, and I just feel like I’m kind of enjoying the freedom of not being super worried about how I’m being perceived,” she said.
She further said, “One of the things I write about in the last essay of [“My Body”] is about control and kind of understanding that one of the best ways to actually be happy and have some semblance of control is letting go.”
The model recently filed for divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard after he cheated on her. Pitt, meanwhile, has been in a custody battle for his and Angelina Jolie’s kids.
