Pitt museum planned for star's hometown

A museum dedicated to the life of Brad Pitt is in the planning stages in his hometown state of Missouri.

The actor was brought up in Springfield in the Midwest, and local residents hope to construct a shrine to the star.

It follows the growing number of fans making a pilgrimage to the area to learn more about where their idol spent his formative years.

Susan Wade, head of PR for the town, says, "Springfield is very Midwestern and family oriented. We're glad to have Brad as part of our history and culture. In fact, we need a Brad Pitt Museum."
