    Ever had a prank call from someone claiming to be a celebrity? Well, that’s what happened to Jamie Oliver — except it actually was an A-lister on the other end of the line.

    During a recent interview on Nova FM , the British chef told the wild story of when Jennifer Aniston enlisted him to cook for Brad Pitt on his 40th birthday in December 2003.

    For context, Brad and Jen were married from 2000 to 2005.

    “I actually was Brad Pitt’s 40th birthday present from Jen,” Jamie told the show’s hosts, revealing that the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity began with a surprise phone call from the Friends star.

    “She phoned up, and we put the phone down on her three times because we didn’t believe it was her. We thought it was someone trying it on,” Jamie remembered. “So she had to go through her agent to my agent.”

    He said it “took a bit of a while” for the two to connect, but once Jen got through, she explained that Brad was a massive fan of his cooking show.

    “Would you cook for Brad?” Jamie recalled her asking. “He’s well into The Naked Chef … He watches you on Tivo.”

    As any fan would, Jamie quickly accepted the offer and was flown out to the US to cook for Brad, Jen, and a whole host of celebrity pals celebrating his birthday, including Courteney Cox and Ed Norton.

    “I haven’t seen Brad for a while, but I saw Jen not so long ago, a couple of weeks ago, and she’s everything you would want her to be and more,” he added.

    Funnily enough, this isn’t the first time we’ve heard stories about Brad and Jen’s love of food in their marriage.

    Last year, Brad’s True Romance costar, Michael Rapaport, shared some rare information about the couple’s $1 million wedding in 2000 , revealing there was a very, very expensive edible arrangement for guests to enjoy.

    “I was at Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s wedding, they had a wall of caviar,” he said during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live , joking that the serving was so “generous” he still had leftovers. “I’m still eating the caviar from there — I was shoving it down.”
