Why wrinkly balding Brad is looking the pits
Time seems to have finally caught up with Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt – as our remarkable pictures of the suddenly greying and balding superstar show.
But don't be too alarmed ladies. The actor hasn't been suddenly struck down by a rampant ageing illness that's forever robbed him of his legendary good looks.
Rather, the 43-year-old was pictured in Los Angeles this week in full make up as a frail and hairless man - on the set of his new film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

Brad stars in the title role – about a man who is born in his eighties and then ages backwards.
The film sees the star's 10-month-old baby daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt make her movie debut.
A set insider said: "Brad and Shiloh saved the day when twin sisters hired to take turns playing actress Cate Blanchett's character as a baby wouldn't settle down.
"Everyone waited in vain while the babies were fed, changed and hugged - but nothing worked to calm them. Then Brad realised his daughter's happy and mellow disposition made her a quick fix for the role."
