In an upcoming issue of Parade Magazine, Brad Pitt said he got sick of sitting on a couch, holding a joint in hiding.

He later goes on to say he wasn’t living an interesting life and his marriage to Jennifer Aniston had something to do with it.

“I spent the ‘90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out,” he tells the magazine. “It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself. I think that my marriage [to Aniston] had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.”

Now, before the magazine has gone to print, Brad Pitt already released a statement trying to take back his words. He said:

“It grieves me that this was interpreted this way,” he says. “Jen is an incredibly giving, loving, and hilarious woman who remains my friend. It is an important relationship I value greatly. The point I was trying to make is not that Jen was dull, but that I was becoming dull to myself – and that, I am responsible for.”

We do believe Brad didn’t intend to hurt Jennifer with his comments and taking responsibility is the bigger thing to do. 

“I put much more emphasis on being a satisfied man,” he tells Parade. “I’m satisfied with making true choices and finding the woman I love, Angie, and building a family that I love so much. A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss. … That’s the trade-off. But I’ll take it all.”
