‘Highest of highs': Brad Pitt's $6m flex
The Hollywood star's collection features a roaring V12 Lamborghini, sleek electric Porsches, luxurious 4x4s and one of the world's rarest cars.
His car collection itself is estimated to be worth approximately $6.3 million.
Here's a look inside his extraordinary car collection. Lamborghini Aventador
One of the most impressive vehicles in his collection is the Lamborghini Aventador, a V12-powered machine capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in approximately three seconds.
It's unclear which specific version he owns, but with any Aventador, the screaming V-12 engine can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in around 3 seconds. Aston Martin Vanquish Carbon Edition
Another head-turner in his collection is the Aston Martin Vanquish Carbon Edition, a 2015 model gifted to him by his ex-wife Angelina Jolie.

There's also an Audi R8 Spyder, and it's pretty easy to see why Brad Pitt owns it.
Packing over 600 horsepower and capable of speeds beyond 320 km/h, it's a fitting match for someone chasing the F1 thrill even off-set. Bentley Continental GT
For a touch of British luxury, Pitt has a Bentley Continental GT.
While he's rarely seen in it, the car is believed to be reserved for special events and award nights.

Brad Pitt has been seen cruising around Hollywood in his 2023 Porsche Taycan.
Depending on the model, the Taycan can have a dual-motor all-wheel drive that's capable of producing up to 751hp and can accelerate from 0 to 100 in 2.4 seconds.
While it's unclear which Taycan Pitt owns, photos of him driving it around Los Angeles suggest it could be his new daily vehicle. Two Tesla Model S
There's some bad history with one of his two Tesla Model S.
In 2018, one of his two Teslas was involved in a three-car crash in Los Angeles.
The Tesla Model S produces 670HP and has a top speed of around 320 km/h. It can also accelerate from 0 to 100 in just over three seconds. Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG
Pitt is often seen driving his 2008 Mercedes G-Wagon.

This could be Pitt's rarest car in his collection.
The BMW Hydrogen 7 has a unique engine, allowing drivers to switch between hydrogen gas and petrol.
These were built between 2005 and 2007 as part of BMW's exploration of hydrogen-powered vehicles, and only 100 were ever produced.
The car has been described as a 'green flex' given it's astronomical price tag.
It's said to be worth around $2m.
He was last seen driving this car while attending the premiere of Ocean's 13. 'HIGHEST OF HIGHS'
A month on from the release of his F1 film, Brad Pitt has opened up about his behind-the-scenes racing experience, sharing which legendary Formula One circuit left him 'breathless'.
While reviews of the movie have been mixed, it's clear that Pitt received a front-row seat to one of the world's most prestigious motorsport events.
While filming the F1 movie, he drove on various race tracks that comprise the Formula 1 calendar.
And now Brad Pitt has opened up and shared his experience on which Formula 1 track left him feeling the 'highest of highs'.
During a recent podcast interview with Tom Clarkson on Beyond The Grid, Pitt opened up about his new-found appreciation for the world's most iconic circuits like Silverstone and Abu Dhabi.
However, there was one track that made him feel completely different from the rest.
And that crown belongs to Belgium's Spa-Francorchamps, commonly referred to as Spa.
'But the high of highs? Spa. Oh my god! 4.3 miles, 100-metre elevation … It's such a smooth, graceful feeling,' Brad Pitt said.
'And then of course, Eau Rouge, we went to the bottom of Eau Rouge, turned behind, looked up the hill and waited.
'Fernando Alonso went by, and it literally sucks the air out of your lungs. It is unbelievable. It is unbelievable.
'That was that same weekend we were driving, I'd been out, but I wasn't doing what Fernando was doing!' James Chung Digital Content Creator

Christie Brinkley, 71, and daughter Sailor, 27, matched with the same men on dating app
Supermodel Christie Brinkley and her look-alike youngest daughter attract the same men despite their 44-year age difference. Brinkley, 71, revealed that her 27-year-old daughter Sailor Brinkley Cook once put her on dating app for an hour without her knowing — and to both their surprise, they had mutual matches. The titbit came out during Brinkley's discussion with Sex and the City star Kristin Davis on the 'Are You A Charlotte?' podcast. Davis noted that there was an 'extreme dichotomy' between men and women over 50 when it comes to dating, sharing that the men won't date women their own age, even though the women are beautiful and accomplished. In response, Brinkley — who's currently not on any dating apps — shared the result of Sailor's 'mischievous' experiment on the unnamed platform. 'She wanted to see what kind of guys [would match] … and she put me up there … and she said, 'Mum, you're right not to go on it, because the same guys that said yes to me, are saying yes to you',' Brinkley said. Davis reacted with shock and delight. 'Wow!' she responded in disbelief. 'Smart Sailor, that is a really fascinating little experiment.' Brinkley is a mum to three children: Alexa, 39, whom she shares with ex-husband Billy Joel; son Jack, 30, whom she shares with ex-husband Richard Taubman; and daughter Sailor, whom she shares with ex-husband Peter Cook. The iconic model has been married four times — Francois Allaux from 1973 to 1981, Joel from 1985 to 1994, Taubman from 1994 to 1995 and Cook from 1996 to 2008. In her recent memoir Uptown Girl, Brinkley recalled feeling devastated after finding out Cook had been unfaithful. She recalled the moment when a Hamptons police officer told her that her 'arrogant husband' was having an affair with his teenage daughter. 'When your whole world falls apart and you realise in a heartbeat you've suddenly become the cliche middle-aged woman whose husband is having an affair with a much (much) younger woman, what do you do?' the actress wrote in her book, which was released on April 29. Brinkley and Cook, 57, split after 10 years of marriage following the affair.

TV reviews: Platonic, Eyes Of Wakanda, Demascus and Chief of War
We've sifted through the latest offerings from TV and streaming platforms to find the best shows you should be watching this week. Rose Bryne and Seth Rogen in a scene from Platonic. ONE SHOW. TWO VIEWS PLATONIC NEW EPISODES WEDNESDAYS, APPLE TV+ After the fabulous first season of Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne's comedy about old college buddies Will and Sylvia who reconnect while both are married to other people, there are still plenty who think Hollywood cliches are going to win out and the pair will end up romantically involved. Guess again. 'People still want it to happen and ask us if it's going to happen,' says Rogen. 'It's not going to happen'. Taking the 'will-they, won't they' out of the equation is the whole point and allows for a fresher take on friendship – not to mention family, careers and middle age. Having worked together for more than a decade, Byrne and Rogen have a real-life connection that easily translates on to the screen even when they are frequently screaming at each other and finding new ways to screw up each other's lives. In a step up from the first season, as Will's wedding approaches and Sylvia prepares to return to work, side characters such as Sylvia's lawyer husband Charlie and bestie Katie also get their chance to shine, making for one of the funniest shows around. JAMES WIGNEY Rose Bryne and Seth Rogen in season two of Platonic. Billy Crystal's character in When Harry Met Sally was wrong. Men and women can be friends. That's certainly clear in this quirky comedy about best mates, Sylvia and Will (Rose Byrne and Seth Rogen). Unlike Harry and Sally (Crystal and Meg Ryan) who's friendship slowly and hilariously evolved into romance in the 1989 comedy classic, there's never the slightest suggestion of attraction between Sylvia and Will. And that's reinforced by having real life buddies, Byrne and Rogen at the helm. Certainly, Platonic feels tailor made for the frequent collaborators. As mum-of-three Sylvia, Byrne gets to once again show her skill at playing uptight women who are secretly champing at the bit to let loose. While Rogen leans into his long and storeyed history of playing likeable slackers, as craft beer connoisseur, Will. Having renewed their friendship in season one, this follow-up sees the pair's friendship tested by Will's new romance. While Sylvia's marriage is strained by her new career as a party planner and her usually dependable husband's midlife crisis. SIOBHAN DUCK Okieriete Onaodowan in a scene from Demascus on Tubi. DEMASCUS TUBI Some of the strangely familiar tech in this near-future-set, six-part sci-fi comedy will leave viewers wondering whether its unconventional therapy techniques are really that far away in this ever-changing AI driven world. At the encouragement of his outspoken therapist (played by Janet Hubert from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air), Okieriete Onaodowan's weed loving, slightly lost title character signs up for the experimental Digital Immersive Reality Therapy (DIRT), by which he can visit alternative versions of himself 'but only as a voyeur'. As he digs deeper in search of answers about his true self, the acquired memories he gains begin to blur the lines of reality and his subconscious as he plays out scenarios of possible lives. Lisa Millar heads to the Snowy River on Back Roads. BACK ROADS THURSDAY, 8PM, ABC With Heather Ewart calling time after a decade in job, Gold Logie nominee Lisa Millar proves to be a more than capable replacement on the travel show that spotlights the country's hidden gems and the fascinating people who live there. Millar's first stop is the legendary Snowy River, beginning in the High Country where she confronts her fear of horses head on with the help of a woman who trains and rehomes Brumbies. In between gamely shooting rapids and bush-bashing in blowout prone buggy, she also meets a 98-year-old Italian expert who explains the multicultural marvel that was the Snowy Hydro Scheme and meets the Indigenous women with a profound connection to the river, just before it meets the sea. SOUTH PARK THURSDAY, PARAMOUNT+ The first episode in the long-running animated comedy's 27th season was billed as its most savage ever and it certainly didn't disappoint on that front. How you feel about the episode – featuring appearances by Satan AND Jesus – will probably correspond to the regard you have for the current American president, who bore the brunt of the show's fury. But Trey Parker and Matt Stone have always been equal opportunity offenders and also had their sights set on woke culture, religion, the media and even AI. After nearly 30 years of lewd, crude satire and mayhem with Cartman, Kyle, Kenny and Stan, audiences should know what they are in store for with whatever they come up with for this week. You have been warned. Jason Momoa in his historical drama, Chief of War. Picture: AP CHIEF OF WAR NEW EPISODES FRIDAYS, APPLE TV+ Man mountain Jason Momoa's stunning historical drama passion project has been billed as Shogun for Hawaiian culture – and it's not a bad comparison, given the scale, use of local language and political machinations punctuated by bouts of brutal and bloody violence. The former Aquaman, who also created and co-wrote the series based on actual historical events, plays Ka'iana, a warrior chief embroiled in the ongoing battle between the four major kingdoms of Hawaii. When he's summoned from his peaceful self-imposed exile by his warmongering uncle (a terrifying Temuera Morrison) for his formidable fighting skills, he begins to question the old ways and chain of command, and has his life turned upside down by an encounter with European sailors. The Voice coaches for this season: Mel C, Richard Marx, Kate Miller-Heidke and Ronan Keating THE VOICE SUNDAY, 7PM, CHANNEL 7 There's been a major shake-up for the 14th season of the long-running reality singing show, with ARIA-winning Aussie Kate Miller-Heidke the only returning coach. Joining her in the spinning chairs are Grammy winning rocker Richard Marx, former Boyzone singer Ronan Keating (last seen on the show in 2016 and a veteran of the UK and German versions) and Sporty Spice herself, Mel C. The season gets off to a flyer, with promising artists from all walks of life (Kiwi Cassie is an early standout) causing the coaches to get even more competitive then the contestants. No one is talking a back step, with Marx in particular willing to pull out every trick in the book – and his seriously impressive contacts list – to land the top talent. Noni (Winnie Harlow) and The Lion (Cress Williams) in Eyes Of Wakanda. EYES OF WAKANDA DISNEY+ With the news that Black Panther 3 is on the way with original director Ryan Coogler in charge comes this fun detour into one of the Marvel Cinematic Universe's more interesting corners – the mysterious and secluded fictional African country of Wakanda. The four-part animated series, which spans centuries of Wakandan history, is mainly concerned with the Hatut Zaraza, who are basically black ops agents tasked with tracking down stolen items made of Vibranium, the substance that powers the country's advanced technology. In doing so they interact with historical eras and mythical figures from Achilles and ancient Crete to Middle Ages China, with beautifully rendered fight scenes and recreations of ancient civilisations. Michael Hutchence performing with INXS at Wembley Stadium. INXS: LIVE AT WEMBLEY SUNDAY, 8.50PM, CHANNEL 7 Seeing Never Tear Us Apart top Triple J's Hottest 100 Australian Songs last month was a reminder of just how good the band was at the peak of its powers. So too is this behind-the-scenes look at their legendary 1991 gig at London's Wembley Stadium, with late, great frontman Michael Hutchence prowling the stage belting out hit after hit and connecting with the ecstatic audience in a way that belied the vastness of the venue. With narration by Michael Usher, band members Kirk Pengilly and Jon Farriss break down the unforgettable sold-out gig (the guest list alone was more than 2000 people) song by song and reveal insights into how a pub band from Down Under made it one of the world's biggest stages. Joaquin Phoenix and Gwyneth Paltrow in Two Lovers. TRENDING: GWYNETH PALTROW TWO LOVERS Streaming, Tubi After weeks being drip fed salacious titbits about Gwyneth Paltrow's famed romances with Ben Affleck and Brad Pitt, Amy O'Dell's explosive book Gwyneth: The Biography finally hits shelves this week. But there are other ways to dig into the Oscar winner's past that don't involve a trip to the bookstore, including revisiting this 2008 film co-starring Joaquin Phoenix. As you would expect for any project with Phoenix as leading man, this is no predictable Hollywood rom com. It sees a suicidal middle-aged New Yorker torn between the nice girl picked out for him by his parents and his self-destructive neighbour (Paltrow). While Paltrow is more focused on her Goop empire than acting these days, this film is a reminder of what a magnetic presence she is on screen.

Cops called after Denise Richards shows up at ex Aaron Phypers' home despite restraining order
Denise Richards was photographed talking to police officers after she unexpectedly showed up at her estranged husband Aaron Phypers' house, despite having a restraining order against him. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star arrived at the Calabasas, California, home, where Phypers is living with his parents and brother, on Sunday afternoon to pick up her dog, TMZ reported on Tuesday. An insider claimed to the outlet that Richards was banging on the back door before Phypers' parents let her inside. She then allegedly started screaming at them to leave the house. The source claimed Richards, 54, put her finger in the faces of Phypers' parents and attempted to hit Phypers' brother. The reality star also allegedly threw mail at her brother-in-law. Phypers, 52, reportedly left the property once she arrived out of fear of violating the restraining order. Phypers' elderly mother appeared shaken up, as she was seen hugging her son in the driveway in photos obtained by TMZ. According to the outlet, no arrests were made as authorities concluded no crime had been committed. Richards' lawyer, Brett Berman, denied any wrongdoing on the reality star's part, claiming to People that Richards did not violate the restraining order because she confirmed beforehand that Phypers 'was not present in her home.' 'Ms. Richards entered the home to retrieve her dogs after learning that Mr. Phypers had put down one of her other dogs without her knowledge or permission,' Berman claimed. A source close to Phypers, meanwhile, called the allegation '100 per cent, absolutely false.' Reps for Richards weren't immediately available to Page Six for comment. The Denise Richards & Her Wild Things star was granted a temporary restraining order last month against Phypers shortly after he filed to end their six-year marriage. In her restraining order filing, Richards accused Phypers of abuse, claiming he slapped, choked and threatened to kill her throughout their relationship. Phypers denied the allegations, telling People that he 'never physically or emotionally abused Denise.'
