‘Like my next door neighbor at the grocery store’: This American star has kept it very easy with Virgin on air

Virgin Efira met a big international star: Brad Pitt, who left her with wonderful memories. In face to face interview Presented by HugoDécrypte and aired last Saturday, the actress revisited her hilarious encounter with Brad Pitt on the day of the César ceremony last February:

Should you be watching the new Disney+ series with Virgin Broadcasting?

“They asked me to present the award to David Fincher and I was told that it would probably be Brad Pitt. I totally believed that it wasn’t. And the same day I was told that he’s there, wonderful, wonderful. I’m waiting by the side of the stage and I hear from the noise that Brad Pitt is going to come first. Above all, I put myself a little far away (…) and frankly, it’s a very good place to show off: I’m there. With my hairdresser, who heard from somewhere else, who hears me and I hear: “Virgin, Virgin?”

And as you might expect, Pitt was very polite and not at all a “Hollywood star,” according to the actor:

Suddenly I had perfect English (…), he told me: “We will set the price together”, I answered “OK”. And he talked to me as if I had been in Hollywood for a thousand years, or as if he himself lived in the same neighborhood of Paris as me, that he was my neighbor next door to the grocery store. It took away my stage fright all at once.

A Hollywood icon, winner of two Oscars (as a supporting actor for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and as a producer on 12 Years a Slave), Brad Pitt is an actor in more than 80 films, including classics such as Seven, Fight Club. or the assassination of Jesse James. And yet, the broadcast ends with my dinner, which followed the ceremony: “He was charming and accessible to everyone.”

Viriginie Efira is currently shown in Rien à perd cinema and in the TV series Tout va bien available on Disney+.
