Brad Pitt joined Barack Obama, Selena Gomez, Oprah, and many more celebs in sending a message from quarantine to class of 2020 graduates. The actor, a native of Springfield, MO, filmed a video message for grads of Missouri State University, the city’s largest school. (Pitt attended the University of Missouri in the ’80s, although he did not graduate before moving to California to pursue acting. He was two credits shy of finishing his journalism degree.)
Pitt told the grads:
Hi everyone. Brad here from quarantine with a shout out to the graduating class of Missouri State University. Yeah!! It must be very strange doing this in these trying times but know we’re rooting for you. Our money is on you to make this world a better place. And we wish you all the best in your future endeavors. So, you did it. You made it. Enjoy. Congrats again, and think big.

Pitt has spent the year relatively out of the spotlight, especially after awards season ended. A source told People in February that Pitt “has been enjoying a little slower personal life. It has worked wonders. We can see that it has shot him to the top professionally.”
The actor told People at the Screen Actors Guild Awards in January that he was happy. “It’s a beautiful day here in LA. We got it well, we got it really good,” he said. “I got friends, I got lovely kids, I like my coffee, I like my dogs. I’ve got no complaints.”
