“When I first met Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon, I was,” Oscar told the winner of Jason and Travis, adding, “I quickly came over it.”

“I don’t support Brad Pitt as a guest at new heights. I say it’s not an attack on Travis Kelce. I don’t need, nor should you agree with any decision he makes,” another added.
“Travis Kelce held an interview with a violent drunk and paints him in a positive light. Brad Pitt beat his wife, strangled her and their children and caused his children so much pain that they changed their last name. His own children differed from him, but [he] Cannot ????? “A third chimet in.
“Both Travis Kalce and Jason Kelce should be called to promote a perpetrator of domestic violence Brad Pitt. Both men break down victims of domestic violence women and children showing their millions of fanbase that the abuse of women and children is acceptable behavior,” wrote a fourth.
In spite of the negative mood towards Pitt, F1 Appeared well at the ticket office this weekend.
