They had met in a tiny apartment in a seedy part of Los Angeles not long before they both rose to fame and despite their brief time together, they were bound by a close friendship rich in anecdotes.
The teenage stars shared a modest apartment before Brad Pitt donned a cowboy hat and flashed his nude chest in Thelma & Louise and Jason Priestley brushed his hair and brought life to Brandon Walsh in Beverly Hills 90210. The Canadian actor remembered those days last Tuesday and disclosed the “disgusting” rivalry they had at the time.

Kelly Ripa and Mark
“We used to have a competition to see who could avoid taking a shower for the longest.”Priestley appeared on Live, a chat show! Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos are the hosts of Kelly and Mark. When I consider that now, I think, ‘Dude, that’s disgusting! What did you think? He was done.
Jason responded without hesitation when the hosts asked which of the two had won the competition: “Brad. Brad always won.” “I don’t think he does those things anymore, but he used to be able to go a long time without taking a shower,” he said with a hint of cynicism.
“Living with Brad was good, he was not like the other roommate who lived next to us, who was a disaster,” she told me, whatever the situation.
Priestley described their living situation as follows: “There were three of us in a two-bedroom apartment in a horrible area of Los Angeles.” All we had in the fridge was beer.
Autobiographical Book
The actor’s autobiographical book, which carries his name, already included a chapter dedicated to his colleague in 2014. He says, “I found a tall, skinny guy sleeping in my bed one day when I came home to my apartment.” After their initial, somewhat traumatic meeting, the performers quickly grew close to one another.
“We had no money and no job. We survived on beer, cigarettes, and ramen noodles,” he disclosed. Success would soon find them both, and everything would shift as a result. Pitt not only started to solidify his profession but also gained a romantic partner from that set when he was cast as the robber in Ridley Scott’s 1991 picture, which seduces Thelma (Geena Davis) to keep her loot.
Pitt and Davis
Priestley claims that despite their decision to keep their relationship under wraps by meeting only in locations inaccessible to the media, Pitt and Davis became deeply in love. However, she vehemently objected to seeing him in that apartment, stating, “She said he looked like her. to a fraternity.”
Following Thelma & Louise’s triumph, Brad departed from the department. After leaving, he started filming films all around the world. I was also stranded there, producing a TV program. The nice group of friends we had vanished when we both moved out of that apartment and started to become oddly renowned.
He recollected, “It was depressing,” in a 2017 interview. “We lost contact with each other because our careers took such different directions,” he continued.
Ben Affleck and Matt Damon
There is a connection between Ben Affleck’s earlier complaint about his friend and creative partner Matt Damon and the “disgusting” tale that Priestley shared on Tuesday. The actor recalls living with his brother Casey and his colleague in Boston and later Los Angeles.
He said that until one day they were tired of the arrangement, they were responsible for cleaning up everything that his colleague had gotten dirty. He added, “We decided to forgo cleaning for two weeks so Matt could assist with the cleanup.” But that never took place.
“One day, Matt was playing the Sega 92 hockey game in the middle of the living room,” he claimed. “He was surrounded by concentric circles of garbage and pizza boxes.” Casey and I saw him doing this. He went on, saying, “I looked down and saw this sushi thing that had been there for maybe a week and a half. Worms were present as well.
Argentine Luciana Barroso
We thus declared, ‘We gave up.'” You’re too skilled at scrubbing. We will not be able to defeat you. “She laughed and continued, “He didn’t even grasp what we were talking about.
In addition, he said that his acquaintance did not pay any bills during their time together. That’s why she suggested moving in with him. “Glory to his spouse, Argentine Luciana Barroso. “He pointed to heaven, where there is a place for her.”
