It's a good thing that diplomatic relations between the U.S. and Canada don't depend upon the behavior of Hollywood celebrities or else we might all be in big trouble.
Over the past week, two American celebs distinguished themselves with decidedly boorish behavior during appearances in the country.
First,recently re-established pop princess Britney Spears-who ought to be happy that her career is on the rise again- walked offstage, according to sources, 15 minutes into her performance and the audience was commanded to cease all smoking. She eventually returned to the stage and, following the end of her concert, left the audience with a somewhat sophomoric, profane message.
Second on the list is Billy Bob Thorton, who got all riled up when a CBC radio show host referred to him as "an actor, screenwriter and Oscar winner." There to do an interview about the Boxmasters, a country-rock band he is a member of, Thornton was, evidently, insulted by referencing of his "alternate" career.
He was rude, unresponsive and irritable for the rest of the interview, ticked off, allegedly, 'cause his musician status was not being taken seriously.
Yeah.
Like there's massive mob of people salivating to download Billy Bob Thornton albums.
