AceShowbizBrad Pitt wears his heart on his sleeve when it comes to those he cares deeply. Being the celebrity guest in the premiere episode of HGTV’s “Celebrity IOU“, the “Once Upon A Time in Hollywood” actor laid bare his emotional side onscreen as he surprised a longtime friend with a home makeover.

Joining the “Property Brothers” stars, Jonathan Scott and Drew Scott, in their brand new show, the 56-year-old Oscar winner named makeup artist Jean Black as his pick for the surprise home renovation. “She’s family, we’re like brother and sister. She’s been that person I value so much in my life,” he reasoned.

In the episode, the ex-husband of Angelina Jolie could be seen getting his hands dirty to help transform Jean’s garage into a guesthouse complete with bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. Talking about his hands-on approach, he explained, “I love the sound of a construction site. If I’m not building, I’m dying. Just walk into a place and just see the possibilities.”

Upon seeing the final result of the renovation, Brad gushed, “It was such a s**t box, this is amazing. It’s fantastic. I’ve been waiting so long to see something happen to this dump.” Jean herself was stunned by the makeover. “I’m really just so flabbergasted,” she said. “It’s really very moving and I just so appreciate it. I know Brad’s generosity, it’s huge.”

“But for him to do this, it’s really more than I ever thought could happen. I am so touched by this, I could really not thank you enough,” Jean continued on expressing her gratitude before giving her pal Brad a hug. It was not until she whispered, “I love you, Brad,” that he himself got teary eyed.

Speaking about Brad’s appearance in the show, Jonathan praised the Hollywood star for being “a true gentleman in every sense of the word.” The TV personality explained, “He wanted everybody to feel like he was spending some time getting to know them. And at the very end he remembered every single person’s name on the production crew and on the construction crew. He remembered everybody and wanted to make sure that they knew how grateful he was for what was happening.”

“Celebrity IOU” premiered at 9 P.M. on Monday, April 13. The series would follow a number of celebrities, including Michael Buble, Viola Davis, Melissa McCarthy, Rebel Wilson and Jeremy Renner, in paying back to those who helped them become a star.
