That’s a whole lot of money.

Brad Pitt is not short of a bit of dosh. Nope, he stands firmly as one of Hollywood’s richest celebrities so it’s no surprise that he might spend his money on things your average Joe wouldn’t. However, Brad’s latest spend left us all a little confused. The actor bid an eye-watering $120,000 to watch an episode of Game of Thrones with Emilia Clarke. While it may sound a little bizarre, it was all in the name of charity. Brad was partaking in Sean Penn’s annual relief event in Hollywood when the special GOT viewing came up for grabs. Yep, Brad was in a bidding war and outbid himself when Kit Harrington said he would join Daenerys herself for the viewing. However, while Brad Pitt's generous bid was substantial, the actor eventually lost out to a true GOT fan who was willing to spend $160,000 on the prize. Hard luck, Brad.
