Fans often make small changes to their appearance to make themselves look like their favourite actors or characters - cosplay, haircuts, tattoos - but it's rare to see this level of dedication (and craziness) from someone who simply admires their idol.

"Idol" might be putting it lightly when describing what Brad Pitt is to twin brothers Matt and Mike Schlepp, who underwent months of complicated surgery - and spent £15,000 - just so they could look like the famous actor.

The brothers were unhappy with the way they looked, and well, if you're going to drastically change your appearance, Brad Pitt is a good place to start, right?

Mike reportedly had a nose job, along with some cheek, jaw and chin implants, while Matt just had a nose job and chin implants. They also had some work done on their teeth, with a total of 41 porcelain veneers being used.

The results are actually quite impressive, and if it makes them happy, then it's their money to spend! Still a little creepy though.
