    I'm not sure I'd call the interviewer a DJ (though maybe I'm wrong). It's not like he was interviewing Billy Bob between Top 40 hits and ads for sports bars or anything - he was hosting an in-depth arts program for a government radio station.

    His band is really great. And I have met him and he is a gentleman and a sweetheart.

    Don't forget about Eddie Murphy, Telly Savalas, Keanu Reeves, Burt Reynolds, Terrence Howard and Joe Pesci.

    Jian Ghomeshi and the CBC do not take instructions. If BBT wanted to control his interviews, he should stick to the arse-licking American entertainment talk shows.


    Good thing he wasn't on George Strombo, or there might have been a beat-down.


    p.s. - we could see his drum set in the video background which makes his tantrum even more ridiculous.

    @BadHairLife: Really? I am glad it wasn't on The Hour, because although I dearly love my boyfriend, George, I find he is a little soft on the stars... I don't reallymind, but sometimes I wish there were tougher questions being thrown at the guests.

    There was a pre-arranged agreement that the "journalist" wouldn't bring up these topics, and only focus on the band. The guy broke the agreement. There is ample precedent for interviews being terminated for such a violation.

    @Jackie_Earl_Daily: The DJ has also stated that he was not made aware of any agreements made with the agent and the Program Director. Even if the DJ WAS aware of it, that does not give BBT the right to be such a jerk. He could have let it slide or even commented off air.

    @Jackie_Earl_Daily: Bullshit. No such agreement was made. BB is a douchebag who's trying to get away with being a rude-ass douchebag. And his music sucks. The only reason he gets attention for it is because of his acting.

    Billy Bob just seems really dickish.

    I can understand acting out of an interviewer says something rude or offensive, but that wasn't the case. The guy said nice things about you - get over it. A good portion of the interviews/attention this band receives is due to the fact that Billy Bob's an actor.

    Other music "careers" that Billy Bob should refer to when considering his own: Bruce Willis, Don Johnson, William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy.
