Frank Ocean Had the Perfect Response to Brad Pitt's Fandom

Now all we need is a Frank Ocean x Brad Pitt collab.

Just one month after Brad Pitt spoke very highly of Frank Ocean to the press, Ocean himself has revealed that the artistic admiration is mutual.

On Sunday, Ocean performed at the Parklife Festival at Heaton Park in Manchester, England. Ocean's choice of attire included a t-shirt emblazoned with Pitt's face:

Though Ocean's t-shirt nod wasn't accompanied by any spoken words of praise, the message here is pretty clear: You know Brad Pitt is great. The equally great Frank Ocean knows Brad Pitt is great. I know Brad Pitt is great. We all know Brad Pitt is pretty fucking great.

Back in May, Pitt spoke with GQ for an extensive (and well worth your time) cover story on divorce, drinking, and the power of Ocean's music. "I've been listening to a lot of Frank Ocean," Pitt said. "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."

Ocean's Parklife performance marks his second in nearly as many days. On Friday, Ocean performed at the Northside Festival in Aarhus, Denmark. The Northside performance was Ocean's first show since 2014 and followed a string of recent cancelations including the Hangout Music Festival, Sasquatch! Festival, and Primavera Sound.
