View Full Version : Billy Idol - What a tool!

Have always liked his music but seeing him on The Panel on Wednesday night confirmed my suspicions that he is a right arsehole.

For those who didn't see it they had to cut his appearance bit short because he was being an idiot and basically giving one word answers or just swearing and seemed like he thought he was too good to be there, telling the panelists they should be asking him better questions.

Not only that but in between getting up to do his music bit he, for no particular reason, poured his glass of water and ice over Tom Gleisner's (sp?) head whilst he was trying to read out Billy's tour dates. Not only that but then he continued to rub ice into an obviously infuriated Gleisners cheeks whilst he continued with the rest of the tour dates.

I thought Tom did a great job of staying professional and composed when I would have decked the little twirp.

sounds like he's a bit of a ********, but then again you never know when these things are played-up and scripted or if he's really like that

Didn't look like it, Tom looked like he was about to blow a gasket at the time and was visibly annoyed after the break.

The most annoying part about it would have been the fact that he was the most boring guest ever and they cut his section after 2 minutes yet he still acted as if he was some big star, Eric Bana is more of a star than he is.

Has he even put out anything since "Cradle Of Love" in 1990????

Why was that d*ckhead from the Partridge Family here?
When he was on Rove, he even made Rove appear funny!
