the brad pitt vanity fair art controversy

things between brad pitt and vanity fair are getting a little bit tense as his very shirtless body graces the cover of the current vanity fair 'art' issue. it turns out that the images are part of a 2005 art installation with avant garde video artist robert wilson. vanity fair not only purchased all the still photos of the session, but decided to use brads image without his consent.
you can read more about it here from the tmz folks.

but the real controversy is the load of crap that the video actually is (which go for 20,000 USD a pop).
