Brad Pitt had so many incredible moments at the SAG Awards. From hanging out with his ex Jennifer Aniston backstage, and maybe grabbing her hand in a flirty way, to giving a hilarious speech mentioning his Tinder profile, Pitt was basically on fire. And he also decided to reveal what fellow actor Leonardo DiCaprio calls him.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly on the red carpet, Pitt explained, "'Lover.' He calls me 'lover.'" As for how he acquired that particular nickname, Pitt said, "It’s a bit confusing, but I roll with it."

And when it comes to working with his Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood costar, Pitt said, "You’ll find, with most of the guys, I would say we’re all pretty much rooting for each other, we all have respect for each other, we all have a good laugh with each other. And it plays. And it’s pretty easy."

The Ad Astra star took home the Best Male Actor in a Supporting Role award for his part in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood. During his hilarious speech, Pitt said, "Let’s be honest, it was a difficult part—a guy who gets high, takes his shirt off, and doesn’t get on with his wife. It was a big stretch."
