Brad Pitt sparked speculation when he turned up to an Autism Speaks benefit with a bruise on his face. What was it? A film stunt gone wrong? A bust-up with best mate George Clooney? No, it was all down to a pair of flip-flops.
"This is what happens when you try to run up steps in the dark, with your arms full, wearing flip flops," the actor said in a statement (yes, apparently he had to release one). "Turns out if you then try to stop your forward momentum with your face, the result is road rash."
