Proof That Brad Pitt was in Grant Park for President-Elect Obama’s Victory Speech
A few of you have emailed me and asked if I knew that Brad and Angelina were in Chicago. No, I didn’t! I’m not surprised, though, as they’ve always been very political, even if they’ve chosen to keep their specific political choices quiet. This is a video that shows a number of celebrities backstage at Grant Park, including the moment that Barack Obama heard that he had clinched the win. You’ll see Brad right about the 2.08 mark for a few seconds walking around. It looks like he declined to do any interviews at that time (can’t say as I blame him). If I find more I’ll bring it to you!
Thank you to all who voted - the number of people who came out was record number and that is something to be extremely proud of, no matter who you voted for.
In added news, it looks like Brad is filming Oprah today! The word going around is that Brad will be killing a few birds with one stone - trick-or-treating, voting, celebrating his presidential nominee pick’s win, and filming on Oprah! I’m not sure when it will air, and I’m not even definitely sure today is the day (but it looks to be) - if I find photos/video, I will have them up ASAP!
