The incident, which occurred during a promotional interview for Pitt’s upcoming film Wolfs, quickly went viral, leaving fans stunned and sparking debates across social media.
What Happened? The Explosive Argument
According to eyewitness accounts and clips circulating online, the confrontation began as a lighthearted exchange before escalating into a tense back-and-forth.
