Still, even something as minor as a peck was unsetting for the actress.“I remember Brad would watch lots of Real World episodes. He had this long hair. He was just a hippie-ish cool dude. Everyone at the time was like, ’You’re so lucky you kissed Brad Pitt,’ but I thought it was disgusting. I didn’t kiss anyone else until I was 16, I think. I was a late bloomer.”

You’re going to kiss me after that?”Indeed, it didn’t help the pair to work better, according to Miles, “She would take these Chinese herbal supplements, which tasted like dirt.
