Brad’s good Day at the Oscars night
Movie stars swapped numbers
It’s been a good week for
Brad Pitt who was awarded joint custody of his children following a bitter divorce battle with his ex Angelina Jolie.
And there could now be a new romance on the cards for the Hollywood heartthrob – after he was said to have swapped numbers with actress and singer Andra Day at the Oscars.
Andra was nominated for Best Actress for her portrayal of legendary songstress Billie Holiday in the biopic The United States vs. Billie Holiday, while Brad presented a gong at the bash.
An insider tells me: “Andra has been on Brad’s radar for a while.
“And she definitely turned Brad’s head at the Oscars, and the various precursor awards, as somebody to watch.
“They were flirting backstage and are believed to have swapped numbers. It could be just professional, but some of Brad’s pals have been talking about what a great couple they would make.”
Andra, 36, first shot to fame after releasing her debut album, Cheers to the Fall, in 2015.
A year later she was nominated for two Grammy awards.
Her portrayal of Billie Holiday saw her win the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama.
Brad has been overjoyed after winning a major victory in his split from Angelina when Judge John Ouderkirk said custody of their six children should be split equally.
The ex-couple have been at war since filing for divorce in 2016.
There were allegations Brad, 57, had once hit their son Maddox, then aged 15, when they were on a private jet flight from France to the United States.
But social workers who investigated the claims found no wrongdoing and no charges were ever bought.
Brad’s last relationship was with swimsuit model Nicole Poturalski but they split in October after just a few months of dating.
He then put romance on the back burner to focus on the custody battle. But now that’s over maybe it’s time to have a bit of fun...
