Below, there’s a fairly clever Australian ad for Virgin Mobile starring “the second-most famous Pitt in his family,” Doug Pitt. I didn’t even realize that Brad Pitt had a brother, but that poor bastard not only has to live in the shadow of Brad’s fame, the Pitt family apparently clobbered him with the ugly stick. It must suck to look so much like Brad Pitt, and yet, have none of the good looks and ALL the Missouri accent. It’s like someone took Brad Pit and crossed him with Ned Flanders.
He’s a giant dork, but I’ll give him this much: He’s got a good sense of humor. I also like to think that he tries to sneak in to his brother’s bedroom late at night in the hopes that Angelina will inadvertently mistake him for Brad in the dark. You gotta at least take the shot, right?
Check out the commercial.

the only sibling that could make him the ugly brother is Brad Pitt.
I’d hit it.
Yeah, I agree with that. He’s dorky with an affable charm, not fug.
Agreed. I’ve a soft spot for kinda dorky guys though.
Hard not to like him. I mean, did you see his air guitar?
I really enjoyed that. The Cohen brothers could totally write a part for this guy in one of their films.
He was cursed to be the ugly brother when his parents named him Doug.
I keel you.
Jesus, Dustin, that’s a bit harsh. Save the bile for those that deserve it.
Faygo, bro.

He’s probably had to get a restraining order from Jennifer Aniston too.
If he’s an ugly brother, I am quite literally a turd.
Give me a break. If Doug was discovered and lived the life Brad does Brad would be the ‘ugly brother’. Doug equally attractive if not more, Doug lives a REAL life and I bet Brad envies him for it.
He’s not ugly. He looks OLDER than Brad, but not ugly. I like him.
He’s not ugly, kind of nasty to make that the bones of this article. Actually he seems like a very nice person and he’s not at all hard on the eyes.
This article’s headline is cruel and incorrect. He’s not ugly. Dorky, yes; but not ugly.
