Billy Bob Thornton Can’t Take The Heat
He acted like a surly diva in this radio interview, and the Toronto fans at the Massey Hall concert, where the Boxmasters were opening up for Willie Nelson reacted in kind. He claimed his “mashed potatoes with no gravy” comment was not anti-Canadian, but the audience wasn’t buying it. Onstage Billy Bob said to the booing audience:
“Boo all you want, but I want to say something – we’re really happy to be here.”
Wow, aren’t we all honoured that Billy Bob is happy to be here? But Billy Bob can’t take the heat. He and the Boxmasters have cancelled the North American leg of their concert. According to Willie Nelson’s website:
“At this time, no reasons have been announced but the remainder of the tour will continue as scheduled without The Boxmasters.”
I’m not an actor or a musician but I’m thinking when you insult the fans that pay to see you and act like a bitch, they might not like it. Call me crazy.

it takes real skill to act as spacey and random as Billy Bob did in that interview…
It really is a gift he has, isn’t it.
One thing about Canadians, we don’t take kindly to Confederates coming into our country and insulting us. If he thought Toronto’s fans were bad, he would’ve been tarred and feathered out West.
