Brad Pitt with a beard! But why? We have all the important answers

March 24th, 2010 By Mof Gimmers

Everyone has been talking about Brad Pitt’s beard. You may have looked at it and known exactly why he has one. You thought that a keratinized, hardened tissue shaft grew from a follicle in his skin. After an initial anagen phase, which is the period when most human hair produced and thereby, containing an abundance of melanin, Pitt’s chin hair reached the catagen phase, which sees a plateau in growth, before paving the way for the resting period, or telogen phase, which sees the hair falling out, making way for new growth. If you thought that, you’re wrong on many levels.

That’s because our Brad has grown a beard out of ‘boredom’. Yep, the Twelve Monkeys star appeared at the premiere of the film Kick-Ass, which Pretty Pitty helped produce. If you want some more celebrity names, he attended the after-party with the film’s star Aaron Johnson, director Matthew Vaughn and Gary Barlow, Dizzee Rascal and Tom Ford. What a circle jerk that is, eh readers?

So yeah, boredom? That’s the only reason?

It’s The ‘Help Hecklerspray’ Poll: Stu’s Beard

August 7th, 2012 By Stuart Heritage

This picture is of hecklerspray editor Stuart Heritage’s beard.

As some of you already know, Stu promised that he’d grow this beard for a month to see what it looked like and then shave it off. That month is up, but now he doesn’t know whether to keep it or not. And this is where you come in.

Stu has already assembled a list of pros and cons about shaving the beard off, as follows:

PROS:

* He won’t look homeless

* He won’t look like one of The Spin Doctors

Disney Sued By God-Fearing Young Sikh

March 25th, 2009 By Shawn Lindseth

Normally, Disney World is a magical place where pixies float through the air on fluffy pink tufts of cotton candy, fairies bless each child with things like good fortune and longevity, and hat-wearing man-dogs do stuff too.

Sometimes though, the place is just a target for lawsuits that state it has religious undertones that persecute Muslims because of their head dress & facial scruff – and that’s just the women!

Disney of course denies all this – but it hasn’t stopped one young man from suing them on this very premise. He tried to get a job with them – and was denied because of his turban and facial hair.

Apparently, he didn’t apply for anything in the Aladdin department.
