This is the moment when Hollywood superstar Brad Pitt was attacked by a crazed female fan

Pitt, in Italy for the Venice Film Festival, was surrounded by his security team when the unnamed fan barged her way through the crowd and attempted to embrace the actor.

"It was a scary moment. The security team must have been embarrassed that she was able to get that close to him. She could have been anyone," said one onlooker.
"Brad didn't look very happy about it all."

Fortunately for Pitt, the fan simply wanted to hug her favourite Hollywood star rather than do anything more serious.

Pitt is in Venice for the premiere of his film The Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford which takes place on Sunday.
