Gwyneth Paltrow basically just confirmed the theory that Brad Pitt tries to look like his girlfriends

By now, we've all seen that meme of Brad Pitt that does the round on social media every few months. You know, the one that exposes his penchant for looking exactly like whoever he's dating at the time. From the sleek blonde Paltrow-esque crop to his tousled Jen Aniston beach waves, the evidence is definitely there. Well, now former partner Gwyneth Paltrow has all but confirmed the theory, saying the she and Brad visited the same hairdresser for their matching bobs back in the 90s.

In a new Goop video posted over the weekend wellness mogul Gwyneth sat down with her assistant to revisit some of her most memorable looks over the years, one of which was the bright blonde crops she and then boyfriend Brad sported on the red carpet at the premiere for The Devils Own back in 1997.

When asked about the look Gwyneth revealed, "We went to the same stylist for the cut. Chris McMillan cut both of our hair like this," but she also added that she had no idea Brad was going for this particular look.

It may not seem like much, but this is actually pretty big news, since it all but confirms the theory that Brad has a tendency to end up looking like his girlfriends - a theory which does the rounds on social media consistently every few months.

This is exactly the kind of sleuthing the internet was made for, and we're so chuffed to see it in action.
