Brad Pitt ATTACKED On The Red Carpet! And This Isn’t The Attacker’s First Time Targeting Celebs!

This probably was SO scary!

Luckily for Brad Pitt, the situation where he was attacked by another man on a red carpet isn’t as scary as it sounds.

While Brad was walking the red carpet in El Lay for Angelina Jolie‘s premiere of Maleficient, a man jumped a barricade at El Capitan theater and went after beautiful Brad.

It’s reported the man did make physical contact with Brad’s face before he pulled away. Some reports are saying the man tackled Brad, while other reports claim he punched him — and Brad punched back!

Whatever went down, it all led to the man being arrested by the LAPD and booked for misdemeanor battery.

So what did the man want???

Well, it sounds like he wanted to pull off a prank as the man has been identified as famed Ukranian prankster Vitalii Sediuk.

He most recently pranked America Ferrera as he put his head up her dress at Cannes. He also once tried to kiss Will Smith on a red carpet and ended up getting slapped by him.

Unfortunately, his prank didn’t get pulled off this time; in fact, it didn’t even stop Brad from signing more autographs!

Better luck next time!
