Sam Asghari, the ex-husband of Britney Spears, was spotted using his connection to the pop star to get close to Hollywood celebrities. He recently ran into Brad Pitt at a gallery exhibition and asked for a selfie with him, mentioning how much Spears loved him. It is unclear if Pitt knew who Asghari was, but it is worth noting that Asghari is looking to produce a screen adaptation of Spears' memoir. Asghari later posted the photo on Instagram, joking that he got skin care tips from Pitt, who has his own line of skin-care products. Some of Spears' fans saw this as a dig at her due to her infatuation with Pitt.

They questioned if Asghari would even be known if he hadn't been married to Spears.

In other news, Pitt also encountered his former father-in-law Jon Voight and brother-in-law James Haven at the gallery. Witnesses reportedly noticed the awkwardness between Pitt and his ex-family. This meeting comes just a week after Pitt's former brother-in-law admitted he became protective over Angelina Jolie during their divorce. Despite the encounter, Haven and Pitt did not talk and kept their distance during the event. The insider suggested that Pitt had no idea they would be in attendance.
