‘Straight pride’ group removes Brad Pitt as mascot after actor complains
Super Happy Fun America adopts Milo Yiannopoulos as new face of campaign advocating for ‘oppressed majority’ of heterosexuals
A group of activists defending heterosexual rights have taken down a photograph of Brad Pitt from its website. Super Happy Fun America had adopted the actor as an unofficial mascot for the movement, which seeks to “advocates on behalf of the straight community” and describes straight people as “an oppressed majority”.
The move follows a complaint by Pitt’s representatives, who confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter on Thursday that they had officially requested the group stop using his name and likeness.
