Billy Bob Thornton 'Blow Up' on Q TV

www.cbc.ca/Q

Q 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.

I love the looks on the faces of the other band members. They look like a bunch of teenages embarrased of their dad

I listened to this live while driving on the highway. It was so buttock-clenchingly tense I missed my turnoff by 27 miles.

The definition of PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE! What a feminine hygiene device.

BBT should have been asked why he's afraid of antiques. Maybe his head would have exploded.

This means you were driving roughly 200 km/h. That's over twice the speed limit on any US motorway as far as I know :D

I found that truly insightful. I found myself so confused observing my pal change from being a loser to a ladies man. He went from a nobody into being incredible. He pretended he didn't realize. Then he smiled and told me while he was drunk on Bourbon. Turns out he makes use of the Jake Ayres Master Attraction Formula. Google it and you will discover it... He is on a date right now with a gorgeous girl... Lucky man!

I actually watched it again to try to take his side or understand his actions better..... just asshole behavior from a pompous asshole!! Even your music sucks Billy! Like more than your acting!

[James Stone]

I always thought "Billy Bob" was a douche...... now I KNOW he's a douche!! What a fucking tool!!

[Captain Caveman]

Billy Bob I'm Not Saying It's Aliens But Its Aliens Thornton.

Flight delayed due to extraterrestrial difficulties.

4:32 lol...I'm not sure what the second part says, but on Jian's computer monitor, is the message, "If this thing really goes sideways...."

It indeed went "sideways."

[avedic]

Actually, even the other band members seem kind of pissy as well. What the hell...? Do they not realize how utterly ridiculous they come across? Especially Billy Bob.... What a fucking lame name...as well.

[avedic]

Jian is probably the best interviewer going these days...and a nice guy at that. BBT's reaction was so pissy and lame. I bet the other band members are embarrassed for him.
