Brad Pitt admits to mistakes after Angelina Jolie divorce is finalized: ‘Learn from it and move on'
Brad Pitt admitted to he's made mistakes in his life after he and Angelina Jolie finalized their drawn-out divorce.
The 'Fight Club' actor got candid about having to navigate through life's ups and downs while chatting with 'Entertainment Tonight' at the 'F1' premiere in Mexico City Monday night.
'No matter the mistake, you know, you just learn from [it] and move on,' he told the outlet when asked what's making him 'feel grounded.'
'It'll lead to the next success,' the 61-year-old dad of six, who showed off his new buzz cut, added.
Pitt, who is now dating Ines de Ramon, said that at his age, he sees 'how important it is to surround yourself with the people you know, the people you love, the people that love you back.'
'Friends, family, and that's it,' he added. 'From there, we get to go make things. It's a pretty simple, I think, equation.'
Pitt's comments come two weeks after he broke his silence on finalizing his split from Jolie, 50, after eight long years.
When GQ asked the 'Meet Joe Black' star if he felt 'relief' when he and the 'Maleficent' actress legally settled their split at the end of last year, he replied: 'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing.'
'Just something coming to fruition. Legally,' he added.
The exes settled their divorce in December 2024, more than eight years after Jolie had initially filed for the dissolution of their marriage in September 2016.
'More than eight years ago, Angelina filed for divorce from Mr. Pitt. She and the children left all of the properties they had shared with Mr. Pitt, and since that time she has focused on finding peace and healing for their family,' the mom of six's lawyer, James Simon, told Page Six at the time.
'This is just one part of a long ongoing process that started eight years ago. Frankly, Angelina is exhausted, but she is relieved this one part is over.'
The 'Maria' star's legal team filed court documents stating that she had waived 'any right to receive' spousal support from Pitt 'forever.'
The 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith' co-stars share six kids together: Maddox, 23, Pax, 21, Zahara, 20, Shiloh, 19, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 16.
None of the children are on speaking terms with Pitt and several of them have even opted to drop his last name.

‘Grey's Anatomy' Star Eric Dane Tears Up in First Interview Since Announcing ALS Diagnosis
Eric Dane—who plays Cal Jacobs on Euphoria—announced in April that he has been diagnosed with ALS. On June 12, a teaser clip from a forthcoming Good Morning America interview with Diane Sawyer dropped, where Dane emotionally speaks about his diagnosis in his first sit-down interview since revealing the news. 'I don't think this is the end of my story,' the Grey's Anatomy star said in the Dane, star of Euphoria and Grey's Anatomy, is speaking out in his first interview since receiving a 'crushing' ALS diagnosis earlier this year. Dane fought back tears while speaking to Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America about his amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis in April. (The disease is also commonly referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease.) 'I wake up every day and I'm immediately reminded that this is happening,' he said in a teaser clip shared for the interview on June 12 (via Page Six). To this, Sawyer said, 'It's not a dream,' which Dane repeated back to her. 'I don't think this is the end of my story,' he continued. 'I don't feel like this is the end of me.' Dane revealed his diagnosis back in April, just weeks after he and wife Rebecca Gayheart called off their divorce. Dane's full Good Morning America interview is slated to air on June 16. The couple share two children, and Gayheart filed for divorce back in February 2018; she filed documents to have the petition dismissed in March 2025. In a statement to People in April, Dane said of his ALS diagnosis, 'I am grateful to have my loving family by my side as we navigate this next chapter.' He also requested privacy as they figured out how to move through this next stage of their lives. He also shared that he will reprise his role of Cal Jacobs for season 3 of Euphoria, which began filming not long after Dane announced his diagnosis. ALS is a rare degenerative disease that has no cure; according to the Muscular Dystrophy Association, people typically live three to five years after diagnosis, although some patients can live decades.

John Stamos says he was with Mike Love when they learned of Brian Wilson's death
John Stamos is sharing how he learned of the news of Beach Boys' co-founder Brian Wilson's death. In a brief conversation with Entertainment Tonight while on the red carpet for the Songwriters Hall of Fame gala, Stamos got choked up when he recalled getting a text with the news of Wilson's passing while he was with Wilson's bandmate and cousin, Mike Love. 'Mike and I were together when I got the text, and I had to tell him,' Stamos said through tears. 'Without Brian Wilson, life would be a mistake.' 'I mean, his music has been part of my DNA,' Stamos wrote. 'And the beauty and the happiness and the joy and the optimism and the positivity that I've gotten from their music has made who I am.' 'You know, one of my greatest honors is when someone comes up and says, 'Oh, I got turned on to the Beach Boys because of you and 'Full House,'' Stamos shared. The actor and the band often collaborated via the hit sitcom in the 80s and 90s and continued their relationship over the last several decades. 'It's the greatest gift that I could have given back to them,' Stamos, who will be performing with the Beach Boys at The Town Hall in New York City, continued. 'Tomorrow will be our first show since Brian's gone,' he said, referring to the performance. 'I don't know how we're gonna get through it. You know, 'God Only Knows' starts playing, you know, but we'll get through it, and we have to, you know, for Brian.' 'I think, obviously, the rest of this summer, the rest of the live shows forever, I think will be dedicated to Brian Wilson, and will be a tribute to him.' Wilson's family confirmed the news of his death in a statement shared on X on Wednesday, June 11. Alongside a photo of Wilson, the statement read, 'We are heartbroken to announced (sic) that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. We are at a loss for words right now. 'Please respect our privacy at this time as our family (is) grieving. We realize that we are sharing our grief with the world,' it continued, before the family signed off, writing, 'Love & Mercy.' Wilson made up one-fifth of the popular rock group known as the Beach Boys, which also included his brothers Dennis and Carl Wilson, their cousin, Mike Love, and their friend, Al Jardine. Wilson founded the band in 1961, and the group skyrocketed to fame following the release of their first single 'Surfin'' released that same year.

Bryce Dallas Howard never tried alcohol. Here's how she played drunk in 'Deep Cover'
Bryce Dallas Howard never tried alcohol. Here's how she played drunk in 'Deep Cover' Show Caption Hide Caption 'Superman,' Mission: Impossible,' 'F1' and summer's must-see films USA TODAY film critic Brian Truitt releases his list of summer's must-see films. The highlights include "Superman" and "Mission: Impossible." NEW YORK − Bryce Dallas Howard never sipped alcohol in her life. But that didn't stop her from acting like an alcoholic who needs an intervention in her new crime comedy "Deep Cover" (streaming now on Amazon Prime Video). "I put ice cubes in my mouth because it kind of numbs your mouth," Howard, 44, reveals to USA TODAY of her trick to play drunk. "I also really enunciate a lot, so (the ice) helps to get the slurring going." Howard's other trick? She spins in circles to get dizzy. "That made me sick," Howard's co-star, Nick Mohammed, 44, interjects. "I'd rather get drunk." Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox In "Deep Cover," Howard plays Kat, an improv-comedy teacher who is recruited along with two of her students (Mohammed and Orlando Bloom) to infiltrate a criminal gang in London. The actors note that there wasn't much improv in the movie, with the exception of the aforementioned intervention scene. After seeing her out on the town gallivanting with a few shady characters, Kat's friends intervene, unaware that the teacher is actually on a secret mission at the direction of law enforcement. There was one part of Howard's character that hit closer to home: teaching. The filmmaker holds a degree from New York University and taught classes there about the entertainment industry. Howard says she recently moved back to the New York area and is in talks with the university about returning to the classroom. "I could relate to the excitement around seeing other people (learn) and seeing people kind of come alive," Howard says. "But I also had even more empathy for my character because the thing that I teach in, I also do for my living. Whereas with Kat, she was teaching something that she wanted to be doing for her living, but she wasn't really getting a shot at it." Howard wasn't the only actor to partake in debauchery: Mohammed's character Hugh has to snort cocaine during the trio's initial meeting with the gangster Fly (Paddy Considine) to prove that the trio aren't posers. As for any real-life parallels, Mohammed says he has never taken drugs. Something bizarre but unrelated to the movie did happen to him four months ago, though: He almost lost a finger. The actor, best known as Nate Shelley from "Ted Lasso," says he sliced it while trying to remove an avocado pit. Fans of "Ted Lasso" may recall that in Season 3, Mohammed played violin during a scene. The actor learned the instrument when he was a child and performed in his college orchestra. He doesn't break out the violin for "Deep Cover" and says his injury has prevented him from playing. Mohammed explained to his mother, who was a doctor, that he doesn't really have any feeling in the finger. "My mom said, 'That might come back in a year,' " Mohammed recalls of the conversation. "I was like, 'And if it doesn't?' She's like, 'If it doesn't come back in a year, it's not coming back.'" At least in this situation, it doesn't seem as if ice is going to help.
