Actor Brad Pitt is so concerned about the environment that he has reportedly stopped using soap because of the toxins used in it.
The 49-year-old prefers to use a combination of lemon, water and apple cider vinegar instead.
"Brad says he's read up on the toxins of soap - especially the antibacterial ones - and feels that using them and antiperspirants is not only bad for the planet, but it also speeds up the ageing process in humans," femalefirst.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
However, Pitt's children Maddox, 12, Pax, nine, Zahara, eight, Shiloh, seven and five-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne and fiancee Angelina Jolie are not in favour of his new habit.
"Angelina was revolted - and their kids even started calling him 'Stinky Daddy'. Angie agreed to humour him only as long as they weren't on the same continent," the source added.
