This is one of the rare instances when Pitt has publicly talked about his sobriety at a platform like this. Following his split from partner Angelina Jolie in 2017, Pitt spent a year and a half in Alcoholics Anonymous and has been sober ever since according to reports.
As for his amazing acceptance speech, Brad Pitt also joked about another actor as he joked to the gala crowd saying, "Well, it's nice to be able to leave this thing carrying something other than George Clooney."
