Brad Pitt Talks Twitter, Texting & Online Dating

Copyright 2009 / Wired Magazine
Brad Pitt offers some tongue-and-cheek cell phone and online etiquette tips when it comes to twitter, online dating and text messaging.

Wired
magazine asked Pitt what he thought of tweeting a picture of his wife's butt like Ashton Kutcher did of Demi Moore. He responds "Don't take a picture of your wife's butt. That's silly. Take pictures of other people's wives' butts."

As for online dating, the 'Inglourious Basterds' actor thinks that lying about how much money you make on your profile is accepted and encouraged. "Everyone lies online. In fact, readers expect you to lie. If you don't, they'll think you make less than you actually do. So the only way to tell the truth is to lie."

Wired also asked Pitt in their "Ask a Basterd" article: Can I talk on the phone while taking a whiz? He answers, "No, you can’t talk on the phone! Do you want the guy next to you to hear your entire conversation? That’s why you should only text in the bathroom. Just be sure you don’t hit the wrong button and end up putting a photo of your junk on Twitter. Trust me, you don’t want those followers."
