Title: Billy Bob Thornton 'Blow Up' on Q TV
Added: Apr 8, 2009
Author: Qtv
Duration: 13:40
Description:
www.cbc.ca/QQ was visited by country-pop band The Boxmasters. The Boxmasters's biggest claim to fame is that their singer is Oscar-winner Billy Bob Thornton. If you were listening, you heard what could best be described as a 'showdown at the Q corral' when Mr. Thornton took offense to our mention of his cinematic accomplishments. Here is what happened on camera. The performance is not included as we have not yet resolved the rights issues to it. If we do we will post that as well.

May 19, 2012 - what a cock, fame goes to the head. You are a human billy joe, or whatever your fucking name is, same as the rest of us.
MissCDB Says:
May 19, 2012 - It felt really good to dislike this video. Billy Bob''s pissed off at the interviewer because it had been previously agreed on that Billy Bob's acting and directing work wouldn't be used in the introduction to the interview. The guy doing the interview is the real arrogant prick in this situation for not respecting the terms previously agreed on for the interview.
MissCDB Says:
May 19, 2012 - Also, the introduction was edited in this clip. It's seems probable that not only did the interviewer introduce Billy Bob as a Hollywood superstar, but rambled on about it for quite a while. For the rest of the band busting their butts (Three records in one year!) The interviewer was taking away from the work that they are putting into music.

May 20, 2012 - You have got to be kidding. Jian Ghomeshi chewed up and spit out this mental light weight and showed him for who he really is. A shame the real musicians in the band chose to hitch their wagon to this human train wreck.The only reason this sad little vanity project got some free air time on CBC was because of his previous work as an actor.

May 20, 2012 - Billy Bob is a great talent but CLEARLY he and every member of the group were pissy from word one. When BB replies to the first question its pretty obvious he's in a belligerent funk. Jian did the best he could with this situation. I probably would have been fired after pounding Billy Bob with the mic. Too much ego was brought into the studio. I hope in retrospect he realizes what a dink he was on that particular day.

May 22, 2012 - He is clearly trying extremely hard for a Bob Dylan type of inscrutability. End of story.
grands1am Says:
May 22, 2012 - The situation of the other band members is fascinating. They seem to be cowed into these ridiculously awkward situations on a regular basis. Oh boy, Billy Bob is being his weird asshole self again because he can't relate to people. They should kick him out.

May 23, 2012 - shit whats wrong with him he's just rambling sounding like a complete idiot WTF?
sheritrask Says:
May 23, 2012 - he doesn't deserve any of the attention he demands, what a complete asshole. can't sing, can't write, increasingly can't screenwrite, and has the personality of a.... what? complete asshole?

May 25, 2012 - i think hes on crack lol
plantguy666 Says:
May 25, 2012 - Baker/Unknown Hinson should kill Billy Bob and take over the band. He's got a hundred times the talent of that washed up freak Thornton.

May 26, 2012 - BB - whatta fucking cock. GIan, you are a gentleman.
tylerdurden2006 Says:
May 26, 2012 - If it was me I would have completely ignored him and interviewed the rest of the band. What a pathetic little child of a man. No one gives a shit about your bland, generic hillbilly music.

May 27, 2012 - Listen to what Billy said: He subscribed to a magazine called "Famous Monsters of Film Land". They had a contest to build their own monster, not buy plastic models. -- Very clever point he made. He requested that his film career not be mentioned, and they just blatantly ignored it. That's completely disrespectful and just downright ignorant! I'm glad he kicked Q's ass all over the airwaves. Thank you Billy! :)

May 27, 2012 - he was havin a bad day.. so what.. the guys a top actor anyhow.
hotstixlix Says:
May 27, 2012 - That's what happens when you ask a mature question of an immature actor who is full of himself. Thornton sounds like a 5-year-old who needs to be sent to his room. He doesn't sound like anyone I would invite to a party. Talking to this arrogant b*****d is like talking to some juvenile delinquent. If he chose to act like he did on this show clip, he should have stayed home. Does Billy Bob have a sense of humor? Hope so. I sure would hate to be the woman (if any) he lives with or is married to.
ktm5194 Says:
May 27, 2012 - This is pretty weird. I'm reading Billy Bob's book and he talks about this a little. He basically said he asked the guy not to mention it before the interview, and he did. If he personally asked him that, he probably shouldn't have mentioned it, even if it isn't a big deal to mention it in the first place.
chickensdontclap147 Says:
May 27, 2012 - He didn't dwell on it in any way. As a radio host, Jian had to put the interview in context. And if Billy Bob thinks that his celebrity status doesn't help his band, he's delusional.
chickensdontclap147 Says:
May 27, 2012 - Jian said that the request was to not ask questions about Billy Bob's asking career. Jian respected that and as he says in the interview, only mentioned it early on to give some context. I'm sure Jian didn't mean to offend him. He didn't ask one question about his movie career, he just mentioned almost in passing. Billy Bob needs to get his head out of his ass
ldnkid Says:
May 27, 2012 - I've seen this guy interviewing Leonard Cohen, Herzog, Hitchens etc and he always seems like a fucking creep. I like the way Billy Bob made him look like the do-gooder that he is.
