Directly it is not possible.. but you can think of putting a text box over the area

As Sushil suggest you have to make trick for this

Ex:-

1. Text box layout properties should be Top over the pivot table.

2. Pivot table properties should be bottom.

3. Text box background color should be white or your define colour

HTH

It deserve, But we need to hide cells too. Recently i faced same issue. But, Fortunately not due to limitation of pivot table. And i got some clue from Manish thru Whatsapp an easy way we can do using Macro to achieve. I am trying to do the same.

This works only when sheet background is white else it shows the color of your sheet.
