Sebastian Bach has responded to Christina Applegate’s revelation in her new memoir that she left Brad Pitt at the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards to spend time with the rocker.
In comments published by Billboard, the former Skid Row frontman said he was surprised by the resurfaced story and offered an apology.
“I was a single guy on tour, in a band, and I met a lot of girls and I apologize if I hurt her, if I hurt anybody,” Bach explained, adding that the whirlwind of rock ’n’ roll in his youth often led to impulsive choices.
“It was a long time ago. If I hurt anybody, I apologize for it.”
Applegate, now 54, wrote in You with the Sad Eyes that she impulsively left Pitt then still an up-and-coming actor for Bach, describing him as a “long-haired hunk” she couldn’t stop staring at.
She recalled feeling powerful in the moment but later regretted the decision, especially after learning Bach was in a relationship and had a young child.
Pitt, meanwhile, was left to drive her mother home and reportedly nearly got into a fight at a gas station afterward.
The incident strained Applegate and Pitt’s relationship for years, though she later acknowledged to him that she had been young and impulsive. In her memoir, she wryly refers to herself as “the child who dumped Brad Pitt for the lead singer of Skid Row.”
Since then, all three have moved on with their lives. Applegate married Martyn Lenoble in 2013 and shares a daughter, Sadie. Pitt went on to high-profile marriages with Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie, and is currently dating Ines de Ramon. Bach has three children from his first marriage and wed Suzanne Le in 2015.
