You MUST Watch This!!!!!!!
We mentioned earlier about Billy Bob Thornton's unprofessional interview shit fit on a Canadian radio show Wednesday morning.
Angelina Jolie's ex, there to promote his shitty band, got really offended when the interviewer mentioned that he was an actor and screenwriter as well.
What happened next????
You MUST watch to believe! Watching takes it to the next level!!!!

P.S. Kudos to the interviewer for keeping his cool and remaining extremely professional while Billy Bob made an ass of himself.
That dude deserves a raise!















































Boycott Billy Boycott Billy Boycott Billy Boycott Billy Boycott Billy Boycott Billy!!!!!
Jian Ghomeshi is a great interviewer, he was very cool and handled the situation very well because he has tremendous skills, has interviewed a lot of people, some great talents not widely known, some real celebrities in the sense of artisty in what they do, not like this PENDEJO. I feel sorry for the members of his band. He is known mainly for being Angelina Jolie's ex.
By the way, Jian is also a musician, and "Lights" manager, and a very smart guy!

ANGRY OLD GRINGO
Please note: for an obscure Canadian interview it sure is getting a lot of attention. “The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.” Oscar Wilde
Man.. why go off on Mr. Thorton… first he made it clear that these issues were not to be talked about. From a band member's perspective it's fantastic in that Thorton wasn't going to tie up the interview with stuff that was irrelevant to the band's work. Sure he's famous but in the terms of their band that has no bearing and he respected that. In my eyes he was looking out for his band mates and if you notice they were given alot of mic time because of it. Had he submitted to the interviewer's lead it would have been all about his past and the band would have had no voice what so ever. Kudos to Mr. Thorton and fuck the interviewer for being such an ass about it.
Imagine, Obama is in a band after his presidency and his publicist tells the interviewer not to bring up the presidency because Obama didn't want to discuss it but would rather talk about the music. Then the interviewer tosses it all in th bin and says "fuck it, I want obama to talk about what I want". Who would you perceive the asshole to be? Me, well i'd have to say the interviewer.
Dude it's a goddam music show focus on the music. I would have rather heard more from the band then watch as this punk tries to force Billy Bob into a discussion that was off limits.
what was billy bob thorton on??? he was a completely rude prick to the interviewer but i don't think ALL of it was purpose, i think a lot of it was genuine confusion and annoyance in response to the interview questions, due to lack of sleep (they did say something about it being 6am) and drugs.
too bad, i used to love him…
Billy Bob finds himself as waaay too important, doesn't he? He thinks of everyone else as one of the little people.
I am wondering if I know Jai…I feel like I do.
Billy Boob is a cool as a dog turd topped with ReddiWhip.
wow.
what a fucking dumbass.
Honestly, people, and Perez, nothing happened! I was bored to death, waiting for him to take it to the "next level." Ugh! I hate how you exaggerate everything, Perez! .. I sure hope I spelled that right. lol
Another example of an overpaid celeb who doesn't deserve fame (regardless of talent) because of his attitude, arrogance, and ego. Biggest turnoff anyone can have, imo.
I don't understand why Billy Bob wants people to forget his acting career, what with critically acclaimed masterpieces, like "Bad Santa" for instance. I mean, we're talking Oscar worthy material here.
this is extremely staged. I think they worked out a deal to give publicity to each other… just a thought.
why do they all talk monotone?
What a dick! Well, if his music career fails, there's always Con Air 2!
Re: Jai – Jai, Jian was just doing his job, and well I might add. Maybe you're just jealous?
Re: cgeers – He didn't ask him about the acting , he simply mentioned it in an introduction. It's all in the wording. Did the request ask not to mention anything about BBT's acting career? Or ask anything? The two are different.
DOUCHE BAG
I can see it now…presenting Kanye and Billy Bob Thornton in Ego Masters.
both need to get over themselves, the rest of the world probably has. lordy, lordy.
"Music historian" HAHAHAHAHA!!! I think botox sipped into his brain and it paralyzed whatever few good brain cells he had, what an ass.
WHAT AN ASS BBT!!!
Re: Laxer –
Thank you so much ! I got so irritated by him I had to come back on here and listen to him get trashed again!
Re: mi mama me mima –
Thank you very much !!!
Jian Gohomeshi was and is a complete gentleman. I don't know how he kept his cool throughout this dibacle, but hats off to him. That cracker-jack faux hill billy cocksucker needs a reality check - why would anyone give a shit about his band if he wasn't an actor? Like a petulant toddler who didn't get a toy from his cereal box, he pouts and acts like an asshole instead of just saying he is upset right away - passive agressive anyone? I hope Canadians skip his show.
It's no big secret that this guy is bi-polar/manic depressive AND he refuses to take his meds…BBT has been quoted as saying the drugs "make him feel like a piece of driftwood." Or, maybe he WAS on his meds that day! Either way, heavy cross to bear…
What a total fucktard… Never knew I hated BBT so much until seeing this, I'd love to go to one of his 'concerts', take one of his CD's, put lighter fluid on it, spark it up and throw it like a ninja star at his overinflated fugly ego and hopefully put him out of his misery… Music Historian? Are you fuckin' kiddin' me?!…AND smugly trying to compare yourself to Tom Petty? I didn't know whether to puke or laugh…Just because you HAD a borderline acting 'career', now it makes you cry when people mention it? You wouldn't even have HAD an interview without your acting past to provide marginal curiosity for the public…Now after seeing this, you won't have any fans except the trailer park you crawled out of.
Are we positive this is real? It seems way to weird not to be fake.
Billy Bob is such an ass clown.
this is such a fake…what a set up…def all planed out
What the hell was that. O________O HOLY CRAP!!! What an ass…The band mates seem a little uncomfortable…I think the interviewer handled it well. I dont think he knew what was going on a first!!
i feel so sorry for his band members. how horrible for them to have to deal with billy bob. grow up! what a loser!
He's kind of an ass, yeah, he's always been kind of an ass. That's always been his gig, really, being a jackass. Big whoop? What rock do you live under?
BB is fucked up
douche bag.
WOW. just WOW. Yet another reason why i can't stand Billy bob thorton. What a fucking DOUCHE. there's a guy who's glass is permanently half empty. I feel so sorry for that interviewer and even more sorry for his bandmates. Clearly theu didn't know what they were getting themselves into.
"I grew up as pretty much a music historian… so…" What an ass. Not that I would have bought his shitty music before, but now deff not.
I don't know anything about Ghomeshi but, as a journalist, I was really impressed with how he handled this NIGHTMARE of an interview. If Thornton is so dedicated to his musical craft, he might have had more consideration for his band mates! (Didn't they look miserable????) WOW. I thought about buying that album….until now. Good luck BBT, I bet I'm among millions of fans resigning after this.
what a douche
The worst part? Billy Bob was completely disrespectful to his fellow band members. He was trying to say that he wasn't the focus, but guess what? He made sure that he was the focus and embarrassed them - did you see the guy sinking in his chair? Seems like he is upset that he isn't respected as a musician. You can't whine to gain respect. People respect you when you do a great job - it shouldn't be for acclaim. Music historian my a**.
The interviewer is a putz. It's well known there are do's and don'ts when it comes to negotiating interviews. He didn't follow those guidelines and Billy Bob called him out. It's not like he threw a punch at the guy for Christ's sake.
I really don't get how some people can think the interviewer came off as rude?! Billy Bob was as ass all the way.
