Brad Pitt Opens Up About Face-Blindness, Says "Nobody Believes Me"

Brad Pitt also revealed that he suffered for years with "low-grade depression" and that he only recently discovered joy recently.

Brad Pitt has recently claimed that he may be suffering from "undiagnosed face-blindness" due to which he finds it difficult to "remember people" after meeting them at social parties. The 58-year-old Hollywood star opened up about his possible medical condition, and the impact it may have on his reputation, in an interview with GQ. 

The Mr and Mrs Smith actor has never been formally diagnosed with prosopagnosia - a condition where you cannot recognise people's faces. But he revealed that he has difficulty remembering new people and recognising their faces, especially in social settings such as parties.

This limitation worries Mr Pitt. Speaking to the outlet, he said that he believes that his condition may leave those he meets with a negative impression and a reputation that he is "remote and aloof, inaccessible, self-absorbed". Nevertheless, Mr Pitt went on to clarify that he is not standoffish, rather he wants to remember the people he meets and is "ashamed" when he cannot.
