Brad Pitt was evacuated from a hotel last week after a fire broke out in a condominium next door.

The actor, who was in Toronto promoting Burn After Reading, was ushered out of the building by his security team on September 5, according to Life & Style magazine.

An eyewitness at the scene called the situation "total chaos", adding: "His security team immediately decided to evacuate Brad to avoid any possible threat. He was surrounded by eight security men and four policemen - it was crazy. It was as if Brad was the president!"

Pitt recently revealed that he has been suffering sleepless nights since the birth of his twins in July.
