BRAD TAKING IT ALL OFF!

NEWS FLASH! He’s sporting the most talked about star beard since ZZ Top, Cousin It or The Werewolf — so wouldn’t you love to actually own that grungy mess of ratty hair hanging off Brad Pitt’s face?! Brace yourself, kids . . . this could be the most exciting news in celebrity memorabilia history: Brad will shave off the weird, shaggy-delic beard he’s been sprouting for his upcoming sci-fi-er, “The Fountain” during a scene in the flick — and insiders are speculating he may AUCTION IT OFF to the highest bidder, with proceeds going to charity! (Wow, girls . . . imagine knitting Hunk Boy’s whiskers into a warm, woolly scarf! Jennifer would be SO jealous!) Charities worldwide are hot to auction the high-profile beard — estimating its worth at hundred$$ of thousand$$! Brad’s reps flatly deny it — but my spies are betting that after the star plucks the hairs from his chinny-chin-chin, he’ll consider putting them on the auction block for charity — and your bidding pleasure! Talk about FUN! Hope it happens — and the opening bid from Mike Walker is . . . $1,000! . . . Going once . . . going twice . . . !
