Book description
There is - and could only ever be - one Billy Bob Thornton: actor,
musician, Academy Award-winning screenwriter, and accidental Hollywood
badass. In The Billy Bob Tapes, he spins colourful tales of his
dirt-poor Southern upbringing, his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (fear
of komodo dragons and antiques), his life, his loves (including his
marriage to fellow Oscar winner Angelina Jolie), and, of course, his
movie career.
The Billy Bob Tapes is full of incredible stories and
righteous philosophical rants, told with the help of his close friend,
legendary country music star and bestselling author, Kinky Friedman.
Put these two iconoclasts together and you get a story that's not just
a celebrity memoir, but a unique, hilarious and insightful pop culture manifesto.
Billy Bob Thornton is an Academy Award-winning actor, director,
screenwriter and musician, who has appeared in films including
Armageddon, Monster's Ball and Love Actually.
Richard "Kinky" Friedman is an American country singer,
songwriter, novelist, humorist, politician and former columnist for
Texas Monthly. He was an independent candidates in the 2006
election for the office of Governor of Texas.
