CONCORD, N.H., April 27 A 77-year-old man in Concord, N.H., may be having a bit of an identity crisis since he has been getting numerous phone calls for actor Brad Pitt.
Somehow, retired teacher Richard Perkins's phone number was posted on the Web site Students of the World as Brad Pitt number, The Concord Monitor reported Friday.
The Web site was started by six French teenagers as a pen pal depot but the Web site's chat rooms soon became dominated by star-obsessed 'tweens.
There's a chat room called "celebrity phone numbers" in which people have requested numbers for Paris Hilton, Mariah Carey and "any hot sixth grade guys." But, the only number listed is Perkins's, although it is under the guise of Brad Pitt, the Monitor said.
Perkins said that he keeps getting phone calls from young girls asking for Pitt.
Perkins even tried unplugging his phone but that just brought the fire department to his home because of his Life Alert system, the newspaper said.
