Sam Asghari posed alongside none other than Brad Pitt this week — and the snap could be a dig at his ex, Britney Spears … who’s historically been infatuated with the mega A-lister.
Sam posted some pics of himself and BP at “Moneyball” director Bennett Miller‘s art exhibit in Beverly Hills Thursday night — claiming he got “a lot of great skin care tips with the man himself.” The photo itself features a very glossy-looking Sam, next to a pristine Brad.
BTW, Bennett’s gallery combines AI with the history of photography, working with a DALL•E image generator to make his exhibit pieces — and the reason that’s relevant is because some have raised an eyebrow on this photo … wondering if it’s actually the real McCoy.
Some folks have pointed out the fact that the snap of Sam and Brad looks a little touched up — unclear if that’s the case, but this is definitely the real BP … other photos of him there are circulating online right now. So Sam isn’t pulling a fast one.
Sam’s rep, Brandon Cohen of BAC Talent, tells TMZ … Sam was honored to be in the room of great talent and artists to support Bennett Miller. Sources at the event tell us Sam and Brad bonded over the acting business.
Now, on the subject of Britney … she’s admitted in the past that Brad was her first celebrity crush … and has been a bit obsessed with him for decades — frankly, who hasn’t, right?
When Sam and Britney were engaged back in 2022, Sam stumbled upon a framed, shirtless pic of Brad in “Thelma & Louise” inside their home … to which Britney responded, “The one and only.” He kinda poked fun at her about … and he’s made jokes about Brad online too.
Brit also posted — then deleted — a photo of young Brad Pitt on her Instagram last year, and said she shared it “because he looks so much like my uncle” … so take that for what you will. The point is … it looks like Sam got his opportunity to meet the dude and he took it.
Considering he very much knows about Britney’s love for Brad … you gotta wonder if he was extra eager to post these pics — perhaps to rub it in her face a bit post-divorce. Who knows!

Anyway, Brad still looks great … so here’s a little look back at the guy and his dreamy ways.
Enjoy, y’all.
