    Well, Mary, I believe he is an animal lover. He (and his band) performed for a fund raiser for the shelter I volunteer at. The next day Tony La Russa gave them a tour of the facility and they came out to the training pavillion where I was in a class with Taggart.
    The stoned look isn't only in pictures. LOL I don't really like the guy. He just gives me the creeps. But it was neat to see him in person.

    I don't really understand the deal with Canada, so can't really respond on that aspect of him.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    He was being a jerk because his ego wants him to be a rock star.

    Some idiot stars look around one day and say, "Being a star is nice, but I always wanted to be a ---------."

    So, they think they can make a lateral move and be just as successful. The DJ was trying to do a interview with BBT, actor and musician.

    Instead they got BBT, ego and jerk?

    Hey, that's great! As for the stoned look, I dunno. I think he's handsome but beauty is in the eye of the beholder, thank goodness. Before he did movies, he did a TV show where he played someone who worked at the White House. It was a comedy and he flashed that smile of his a lot.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I am glad he is kind to animals. But I wish he would remember that people are an animal species too.

    If an interviewer mentions something that wasn't supposed to be talked about, it's easy to say, "excuse me, but I thought we weren't talking about that."
    Instead of playing stupid and using the S word several times on the national radio network.

    I didn't watch the entire video (I heard the interview live on radio as I was driving), but apparently his bandmates really felt uncomfortable...one was twiddling with his mic cord while the confrontation was going on.

    I'll support artists and others who support animal causes, and who know how to mind their manners. This guy has a chance to promote him and his band nationally as the tour has just started - and instead makes it all about him.

    Sorry...won't be buying any of his music.

    I don't really understand the deal with Canada, so can't really respond on that aspect of him.
    Cindy - click on the YouTube link in the first post if you want some background on this.

    Yes, once they get famous they think they can do anything after that.

    I don't recall that show. I mainly remember him from when he was with Angelina. I remember thinking - what does she see in him??? Then I figured he must be a nice guy.

    It was bugging me because I kept thinking that John Ritter was in it but then I thought "No, that was Slingblade". Then I decided to look it up and it was called "Hearts Afire".
