Brad Pitt Supposedly Has the Flu

Uh-oh!

Actor Brad Pitt has been hospitalized with a flu-like illness. Pitt, 41, checked himself into an undisclosed Los Angeles area hospital Monday night complaining of flu-like symptoms, his publicist Cindy Guagenti said Tuesday. There were no other details and the name of the hospital wasn't disclosed for security reasons.

Pitt was in Ethiopia last week with his "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" co-star Angelina Jolie to pick up the actress's newly adopted baby girl, the second child she has adopted. Guagenti said it wasn't known if the actor contracted the illness while in Africa.

"I think he has the flu," the spokeswoman said.

Sorry, Brad. It's not the flu you have, it's syphilis. I checked some online databases and stuff, and you know they're always 100% accurate. I mean, this is just this doctors opinion. Wait, I'm not a doctor. I don't even have my Master's Degree.

And you can't catch syphilis in Africa. Unless by "Africa" you mean Angelina Jolie's oobajooba.
