Brad Pitt mobbed by school girls

Brad Pitt's heartthrob status is causing trouble for the actor as he gets mobbed every time he goes to pick up his son from school.

Pitt whose adopted son with partner Angelina Jolie, seven-year-old Maddox is a student at New York's prestigious Lycee Francais, causes such a uproar every time he appears at the gates of the school that the principal had to issue letters to parents warning their daughters to leave the actor in peace.

The school which is known for the celebrity kids on its rolls including Madonna's daughter and son, is flummoxed by its pupils reaction to the Ocean's eleven star, reported Daily Mail online.

"Madonna's children attend the school so students are used to celebrities, but Brad is another story. When he arrives at the school gates, all the girls rush out and practically mob the poor man," a parent told the newspaper.
