Bill Burr doubles down on trashing Howie Mandel over Billy Corgan ambush: ‘He is a Hollywood wh–e’
NY Post
Bill Burr isn’t happy with Howie Mandel.
After appearing on “Howie Mandel Does Stuff” podcast, the “Old Dads” actor, 56, doubled down on his disappointment over being blindsided when Mandel, 69, ambushed his interview by bringing out The Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, 57, who revealed he might be Burr’s half-brother.
Talking about the recent unsolicited therapy session on “The Rich Eisen Show” this week, Burr said, “Howie did what he did because he is a Hollywood whore and he doesn’t care what happens,” adding that Mandel “just brings up all that weirdness.”
When Eisen asked Burr if he was “pissed” at Mandel, Burr noted that he avoids speaking publicly about personal aspects of his life and “did not appreciate” the move.
“Billy’s fine. That’s the first time I ever met him and it was fine or whatever, but I did not appreciate what Howie did,” he shared. “Not at all.”
Despite the tension, Burr isn’t shutting the door on mending his friendship with the “America’s Got Talent” judge.
