Frank Ocean sings to Brad Pitt at FYF Fest
Here's something you don't expect to see at a music festival: A touching phone call between Frank Ocean and Brad Pitt.
But during Ocean's captivating set at FYF Fest in Los Angeles' Exposition Park Saturday night, concertgoers saw Pitt, center stage, on his cell phone. The Oscar winner appeared to be taking a live call from Ocean, as the R&B singer performed Close to You mixed with Jackson 5's Never Can Say Goodbye.
Fans were moved by the emotional cameo, and director Spike Jonze was seen there, filming the whole thing.
The public phone call is just the latest PDA between Pitt and Ocean. In May, Pitt told GQ, "I've been listening to a lot of Frank Ocean. I find this young man so special. Talk about getting to the raw truth. He's painfully honest. He's very, very special. I can't find a bad one." Then, in June, Ocean wore a graphic T-shirt of Pitt's face during a performance at the Parklife Festival in Manchester.
