NY Daily News JV gossip Lloyd Grove continues his self-fashioned holiday tradition of annually banishing one oversaturated boldface attention-whore from his gossip kingdom. Last year was a well-deserving Paris Hilton, and this year, the honors go to none other than noted adopter-of-the-refugee-orphan-stars, Brad Pitt. Grove lays his crimes out methodically, but it's Pitt's Single White Female-esque behavior that we found particularly noteworthy:

Brad adopts the lifestyle, interests and passions of whatever woman he happens to be bedding. A slightly creepy collection of photographs from the archives of Star magazine shows Pitt aping his various girlfriends' dress and appearance - whether it be Jill Schoelen in 1988 (matching hats), Juliette Lewis in 1992 (back-combed and blond), Gwyneth Paltrow in 1997 (matching cropped blond hair) and Aniston in 2001 - much like dog owners who morph into their pets.

We immediately were sent scurrying off to Google to see if Grove had a point; indeed, he had, as you can plainly see from the suitable-for-framing photomosaic of evidence we crafted above (he even manages to pull off looking cute during a regrettable experiment with the Man-Rachel!). To our surprise, however, Pitt has not taken to bouts of collagen lip injection in a fit of Angelina mimickry, for his latest copycat obsession is bespectacled gossip dandy Grove himself.
