Actor and producer Brad Pitt shared some devastating news with his fans recently.
The Fight Club star spoke to QG and revealed he’s been struggling to recognize people’s faces, a condition medically known as prosopagnosia or “face blindness.”
With a worrying tone in his voice, the famous Hollywood star revealed that he hasn’t yet been officially diagnosed with the condition, but he is certain he has it.
He said that he feels fearful because he believes his inability to recognize faces has led people to believe he’s “remote and aloof, inaccessible, self-absorbed.”
Pitt added that he wanted to meet other people having this condition.
“Nobody believes me,” Pitt was reported to have told the reporter, and it’s not hard to understand why.
Besides the fact that most people have never heard of “face blindness,” this condition is real and presents a real challenge to those who are forced to live with it.
