Bruce Willis being monumentally awkward towards poor reporter (now with unseen moments!)

- Back in 2013, I got caught up in a moment which turned into a global viral sensation. Now, including previously unseen footage of just before and after the interview, here's your chance to see that infamous Bruce Willis & Mary Louise Parker chat again, as they (kind of) promoted the very underrated, Red 2 (mainly underrated by Bruce....as you'll see!)

For anyone watching who is dealing with a loved one with cognitive issues, please play movies/ shows and music from their past. Even when they are in rapid mental decline they will smile, sing and dance. It really does help. Nothing ,but love and understanding for all u guys, Willis and Moore family included.
This is so very true. It's like the past Is more familiar for them. It really helps
Not really to do with his condition. He's just a hell of a jerk
@@FL-gg4dq Yep, this was 11 years go. Just being a dick.
Man, I feel so sorry for Bruce. Great interviewer. He did the best he could.
Why feel sorry for Bruce? He was just being a dlck here thinking he was better than a lowly interviewer, this was LOOONG before his diagnosis & he didn't have it, nor did he show symptoms of it, he was just being the usual Hollywood douchebag at this point 9 YEARS AGO
True.
You know technically and historically Bruce was not really much of a talker even when he was younger. I mean he had certain lines but they weren't overly long sentences in truth. Yes I can see that there was some decline in the responses he was given out in reference to what the Reporter was asking.
Interviewer got a nice easy manner..very good
@@southshore8911 yes, because life is all about beautiful women…..def tell you’re nothing but a little kid
Kudos to Mary Louise Parker trying to diffuse the tension.
Definitely but Bruce was adamant he wanted to be a mean spirited douche. Disappointing.
She was stepping in to save him during the interview
I don't think the actress tried to defuse the tension at all. I thought she was just as rude and felt superior to the interviewer too.
The language and communication part of Willis brain is dying,before it removes his ability to then control his organs. he wasn’t being rude.
If it's any consolation that was the peak of her career and she slumped back to being a C list actress after.
It's like he's going in and out of lucidity rapidly, like the old Bruce only is able to hear and respond to half of what's being said while the other half isn't really listening and is rapidly firing off random emotions and thoughts. It's like the old Bruce fully came out for a second at the end, when he was telling the interviewer he had done a good job, it's like Bruce knew that the interview had just been sorta difficult.
This is more Bruce's off-key sense of humor than him being awkward or intentionally rude.
No, this is cognitive dysfunction. If you’ve had loved one with it, you recognize it. I think he was attempting to be funny but his brain wasn’t processing quickly enough.
@@a.evelyn5498 I just implied that he was attempting to be funny and not being intentionally rude. Obviously, something is off register, especially with his timing. The video headline is merely click bait.
@@gmail4218 Agreed
I always look for an interview when he was polite and gracious. Never seen one yet.
This is so awkward, you can tell Bruce does not want to be there. The interviewer is just trying to do a good job and the tension, its so thick.
*it's
@@SundaeExpress shut up kate.
that's because mentally he isn't. He has aphasia. Look it up before you start spewing cr*p and maybe have some empathy for those suffering from cognitive disorders
@@mgloco88 I’ve seen enough weird moments like this to confidently say he clearly was suffering from this for a couple decades now. You dolt.
@@He.Who.Shall.Remain.Genderless When did I insult Bruce? While you call me names for no reason, it's funny how everyone is a medical expert now that he came out with this publicly. 🤣
Now we know the real reason for this bizarre interview.
My prayers with Bruce Willis
he has done hundreds of amazing interviews in 40 plus years. I can easily give him this mulligan. Regardless of whos expense it was at.
Well, it's clear now he was having cognitive issues even as far back as this. Poor man. It's sad how this was kept a secret for so long and everyone mistook it for rudeness or weirdness.
Possibly, but allegedly he’s been hard to work with since day one. There are videos about it
It could have started when he was a teenager and grew throughout his career until it began terribly affecting.
@@0v3rgr0wn according to Kevin Smith he was a pain in the ass in Cop Out
stop it with the cognitive issues to justify that he's just an ass
Bruce Willis like Mel Gibson are were wankers to work with from day 1!
Bruce seems to be in that weird space whereby he likes his lifestyle and so wants to maintain it - but seems to have no passion at all for what provided for that lifestyle in the first place.
In retrospect, he was probably trying really hard to get through this conversation. Looking back, this is aphasia starting up, and he was probably struggling to act for a while before this.
please, he has aphasia. look it up before you start condemning someone for a cognitive disorder that they have no control over
@@kenhew4641 I'm no doc, but he has more going on than just the symptom of aphasia...
@@kenhew4641 You have no idea if or when the CD started.
@@ribky4239 no he was clearly being a cock he's been like that for many years. I sorry about his condition but it doesn't excuse decade's of this.
I mean he just telling the truth and call bs on everything. God bless him and his family, only thing worse getting older is watching your hero's you grew up with fade away slowly.
I think the interviewer done a great job considering the way Bruce was acting. I think most people would have broke down in tears haha
😂😂
He was probably resisting the urge to ask Bruce if he misses acting, or can remember the last time he enthusiastically acted in a film.
*did
*broken
@@penelopeplimsoul3617 *Plimsole
We know why now but Bruce has given hundreds of hysterical interviews over 40 years. He gets a mulligan from me. Even if it's at someone else expense.
Nice reporter! Lot of patience with such a nice actor!
Poor interviewer. BW could frequently be a smug arrogant jerk (and I am a HUGE fan) .... but these days rudeness is trivial given his life challenges and my thoughts and prayers are with him and his entire family ❤🙏
This is so sad to watch today with the news that Bruce Willis is battling cognitive dysfunction and will be retiring. He was labeled difficult and confused when this interview was first posted, I think now we know why, his cognitive issue is were already apparent in retrospect. So funny, so talented, Bruce Willis is a gem and I hope for the best for he and his family.
Watch JoBlo Originals video on Bruce Willis entitled “WTF happened to Bruce Willis?” It was made around a year ago and goes over his entire career.
Long story short, Bruce has been hard to work with since day one.
No, plenty of videos/stories about him being a prick long before.
I am trying to find that part where he snaps at reporters and asks something like "what are we doing here? we are trying to sell the movie" or something like that. I haven't watched this fully to see if it was this video.
Dont think it's that, (but get your point in Hindsight) he is bored and maybe tired they run these "promo-views" back to back in 15min slots if you are the last of 10 interviews you get tired actors. NOt convinced that this represents evidence of cognitive decline, he is witty but obviously bored and wishing he was somewhere else. But he knows what's going on. IMHO
Same thoughts
I know how people are now watching Bruce Willis in 2010s-2020s interviews and saying "oh, you see, he was already in decline back then", but this seemed very, very normal. Witty, even. I could follow his train of thought and didn't think anything was (blatantly) out of place.
Istanbul? I think that was odd
wow. Hats off to the interviewer. After seeing mostly bad interviewers when these things so sideways, it was refreshing to see an interviewer staying positive and upbeat and even showing interest in their answers to ask follow up questions to their answers. Meanwhile the actors (at least one of them anyway) did their best to show complete disdain towards the interview process.
We now know that Bruce Willis has had dementia for a long time, and that explains why his interviews have been so awkward like this one.
@@semajmarc87 sure, but the interviewer didn't know that, but still soldiered on through that with a high level of professionalism and remained upbeat the whole time.
That interviewer should be proud of himself. Handled it like a boss.
@@semajmarc87 lol fail.
p.s you can't use dementia as an excuse for being an absolute dick. He made a concerted effort to be this negative lol.
'Hats off' ??
Hey Jamie, news came out the past few days -- after rumors dating back a few years -- that Bruce has been battling early onset dementia, which is why he's been taking roles in increasingly terrible B movies that require little to no commitment (often just a day's work or so with an earpiece feeding him his lines). I read that those who begin to suffer certain types of dementia experience issues in their frontal lobe that can impact their understanding of social norms, and empathy for other people, which can come across as rude or erratic behavior to others around them. Makes me wonder if what we saw in this bizarre interview (which I've watched countless times over the years for some reason!) was an early sign of his dementia manifesting. It really does explain so much. And if it's true I kind of feel bad now for mocking him and his seemingly lazy career choices. It also makes sense why he randomly chose to do the stage play of Misery a few years back... He may have realized it was his last chance at doing something of that magnitude. It also explains the weird story about him getting kicked out of a drug store during COVID for not wearing a mask, which at first seemed like a political statement but there were photos of him leaving the store with the mask pulled down around his neck and one of the articles I read stated he simply "forgot" he had pulled it down. If the rumors of his dementia are true it certainly reframes a lot of his behavior and career choices. Curious if you have any thoughts on this? Perhaps it would at least give you some sense of closure / explanation as to why he was seemingly such a jerk out of the blue?
@P. Kaboo BAHAHHAAH AHHAAHAH hahahahahah bahahhahabahaahabbah... Don't worry folks, we have pkaboo to confirm that it's fake news.
@@mobleyMobley You alright there, mate? Are you off your meds?
@@SundaeExpress Rumour? Just watch his performances of late and make your own mind up..
@@SundaeExpress rumor*
@@SundaeExpress Bruce Willis isn't British. He is an American! Duh!
This was way before his illness - Bruce was just clearly tired/bored or fed up and has a dry humor. From his opening comments (off camera) he jokingly tried to put pressure on the interviewer. Some people have that mischievous "banter-style" humor and it is often misinterpreted. I worked with a guy just like this - "Banter Andy" - some people tended to avoid him whereas others totally got it. He would do his banter thing but whenever anybody gave it back you could see his humor devolve and become even more combative - like it was a competition to him. Things could get quite nasty. Not a fan of that style of humor myself - but each to their own. There will be a psychological reason why some people use it. It's not the sort of humor you dip in and out of. It's all or none. Humor is about pleasing others. What the heck am I even going on about! Bloody essay. Great actor.
No, you can tell he is trying to be funny, but his brain does not work properly or rather fast enough, hence he sounds offensive and rude. The condition Bruce has been diagnosed with ALWAYS shows signs early on, maybe decades early on. This interview clearly shows lack of cognitive function. The reason you only hear about his condition now is simply because it has gotten so bad its impossible to hide. He probably was diagnosed years ago and it was hidden to protect his career.
Everyone currently feels sorry for Bruce, given his dementia. But i think its sad in the years prior to his health deterioration he never felt once the right thing to do would be to apologise to this interviewer. Disappointing.
You did a great job
people lose sight of the fact that on these press tours they sit and do sometimes over 100 a day..........it has to be mindnumbing because its the same questions over and over and over..........
Have to agree. Answering the same questions all day, probably is hard to deal with. (Although actors are used to, and paid well for, repeating the same lines over and over.) It is however, why I’ve always tried to find more fun (non intrusive) angles to take. Worth another mention for this particular one though; this was Interview No.1 of Day No.1 of the press tour! 🤷🏼♂️
@@showbizjamie503 bravo for your response, i have seen alot of people put current day diagnosis as an excuse for previous wierdness he has shown, but you sir kept it classy...............well done
@@showbizjamie503 You did an awesome job. He was a prick.
Sure, Bruce is acting bad, but that woman is also being rude and going along with Bruce's answers.
Yeah interviewer wasn't great but the woman was being unpleasant too, along with Bruce
@@barryhercules6486 the interview didn't say or do anything wrong? He was doing a fine job.
Who said the interviewer did anything wrong? Bruce and what's her face were obnoxious arseholes.
Yeah but she has a female privilege . You can pick on the straight white guy but never the woman!! Also with most actors being woke/radical feminist obnoxious cretins it is very difficult to tell when people like bRIE Larson or Amber Heard are being rude bullies because they're just like that all the time
@@laurarules3642 From reading your scree and observing your one upload "Pay Pig Verbal Abuse and Humiliation", I can tell you have a lot of problems Laura. I hope that you learn what feminism actually means and heal to the degree where you don't hit out at women woman who can stand up for themselves as some "woke" or "radical" conspiracy. I agree that both actors were being unpleasant, but that doesn't mean it's some sort of societal ill due to equality. Have a great day.
Bruce was always a jerk. No excuses. Why did he not turn against his work colleauges if what you all say about him is true? I'm sorry to hear he's going through hell with his problems, but let's call a spade a spade. He was an absolute jerk who got off by belittling people from his enormously privileged seat.
Why would she go along with that rudeness. Unfortunately, that ends up speaking volumes about her.
Yup. Fuck both of them.
I feel like she was trying to stay somewhere in the middle and play along as if Bruce was just being 'goofy' but got in a bit too deep 😅
He must've been off his meds that day.
@@phattjohnson well, unfortunately not curable with meds. Best of luck to Bruce in his retirement.
Bruce was pretty tame compared to other interviews
Though I feel bad for the reporter (as he was clearly prepared and had an actual affinity for the film), I think it was clear that Bruce was not bothered by the reporter …but had grown tired of the ridiculousness of the process in nature.
We all grow tired of our jobs, mate. And we carry on regardless, despite not getting paid a fraction of what Bruce does.
@@SundaeExpress However, a large amount of us have also quit jobs or told a boss to go to hell. That’s exactly what was happening here because the act of “selling” a film is the crap side of the work. I’d just spout nonsense…it’s better than saying the smell line of crap over and over.
@@SundaeExpress how dare you. Bruce has aphasia!! Have some compassion. He is struggling.
Great job Jamie- great interview mate. Keep up the good work. Sorry that he was so rude to you! 👍🏻
I hope you feel bad after the recent news
@@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470 Not really no. Bruce Willis was and is a true acting legend. But his recent illness does not forgive his rude behaviour in this interview, to a clearly inexperienced guy starting out in journalism.
Looks like Bruce is already struggling here. He must have been frustrated that he couldn't find the right words to say or how to answer his questions. Poor guy, he must be somehow confused or disoriented. It seems that the interviewer knows that something is wrong with him
Are you from Barry Jamie? Chris's brother from behind Wye Close park?
At least he called him by his name
You know what… I’ve never thought about that, but you’re right. He did remember. Maybe because it was first interview of the day? But I’d like to think, he just remembered! 💡🤔
It’s probably the Aphasia, it might be just mean spiritedness. But either way, Bruce was savage here.
I’ve watched several Bruce Willis interviews over the years. He’s always had a dry sense of humor and been playful. Plus, I get it as far as being tired of selling the movie all day long. I think all 3 of you did good.
I would get it too…if this hadn’t been the first interview of the promo tour! 🤷🏼♂️
@@showbizjamie503 are you gay? Just asking
Evidently cognitive issues, not just being funny.
@@a.evelyn5498 That occurred to me back in Farrah Fawcett’s day too. When she was on David Letterman and she seemed out of it and everyone laughed AT her. Shortly after, she was diagnosed with brain cancer
@@holdenparker179 What if he is and what if he isn’t?
He's literally SICK AND TIRED too; at the end of his rope. 😆 🤣 😂 😹 it's Got to be Tedious, 50 interviews a day.
Yeah, getting paid millions and millions, must be terrible.
I'm not sure Bruces aphasia disagnosis really excuses him from how utterly rude he was here.
Hes not trying to be rude smh hes been struggling with aphasia perhaps sum years now and its a disorder that affects language comprehension, reading, writing etc. Yeah your right it doesnt excuse him. Hes probably in a mixture of emotions trying to get his words from what wants to say.
It sure doesn’t.
Fuck him for treating a stranger like that.
He has dementia.
I agree... smug and rude is probably not related. Sorry.
@@angeliquelashelle1412he was diagnosed with dementia so that explains it
One of the greatest actors to appear on our screens will unfortunately quit acting truly heartbroken 😢😢
Aphasia....you can see it here and in another interview,sucks
I liked Red 2 actually 🎉 it was funny and sentimental ❤ ❤
4:11 the exact second you have to suppress the urge to call Bruce Willis a complete bellend.
😂

@@kenhew4641 This was recorded before then, you simpleton.
@@kenhew4641 You understand what time is ? dates and stuff like that?
@@submale5892 He was still suffering from it all the way back then, you simpleton.
It's clear now...
Did the interviewer piss off Willis before the interview? Was this part of Willis’s recent health and mental processing issues? This is so weird and awkward. Bruce used to be so funny and charming in the 80s and 90s.
Oh dear Bruce was experiencing issues here.
maybe he was having trouble understanding/communicating.. Early signs of aphasia...
Yes you can see him smiling politely. Then straining to catch the words. You get that same look of strain in someone quite deaf. Then the meaning escapes him and he glazes over. His brain just gives up. Then after a minute he attempts again. Its just draining him poor man. I'm glad they have so many picture communication stuff available now because of mute autistics . That will be how he will have to do it because the ability to read goes to.
mary louise parker checked out for this one
Remember this was a time where being nasty/critical was the thing. He was a pos for this and so was she (whoever she is)
This is from the summer of 2013.
Looks like he is already sick here
I mean he's right! You've just gotta be nice to people! Bruce is great! Hate to hear of his illness
fudge it, bruce is jus relaxed in his old age
Fuckin' Legend.
It surprise me that how quickly the public will bash a celebrity for not always being nice or cheerful I mean for christs sake guess it's ok for normal every day people to have a bad day but not celebrities sounds hypocritical if you ask me🤷
No matter what, Bruce willis is a genuine badass just like in the movies, wish him all the best!
Narrator: "There was no third movie."
😂
@@showbizjamie503 and there never will be and now we know why 😢
What happened beforehand Jamie to put Bruce in such a bad mood? Tell us the story!
Full story will be in the book one day! 😉 What I will say, is everything seemed fine. It was the first interview of the day, and we had been chatting about how good his version of Under The Boardwalk was! 🤷🏼♂️
@@showbizjamie503 what do you make of the rumors that he has been battling dementia? Maybe he's been confused for years and thought you were Kevin Smith 😂
@@showbizjamie503 Oh snap, so he morphed into a giant phallus only once the cameras were rolling?
Well, now we know.
Frankly, some of those journalists should just stop the interviews and tell those stars that there's no point to continue to talk about a job they don't like anymore. No offense, none taken, but just let's stop at this point.
In case you've been living in a cave for the past 25 years, Bruce Willis has aphasia. Look it up
@@kenhew4641 In case you've been living in a cave for the past 25 years, his "aphasia" has only been announced some weeks ago. I've known people suffering from aphasia and speaking like a jerk was not one of the symptoms.
Fair point but you run the risk of the actors or the people who set up these interviews not taking a liking to that level of assertiveness. I could imagine there is a risk of no longer getting invited for press moments like and that would hurt his income.
It was a good die to day hard for that reporter.
Watch your English
REDS 2; the Warren Beatty sequel.. 😆
To add to everything mentioned above, Bruce has not done this style of interview successfully. Look at the older interviews on late shows. He clearly enjoys playing around, doing skits, goofing off, telling jokes, going off the rails with banter. Talking about movies, he was never comfortable. Look at the 1987 Die Hard interviews. They ask him analytical questions, like what's your secret? He goes I dunno, I'm just an every day guy, I don't really analyze this stuff. Now imagine that, but tired and with dementia.
To spend time on air with Bruce and have a good time, you gotta play around and do wacky stuff, he doesn't do well in standard interviews where the questions are standard like what was your favorite location and favorite scene. Guy is so burnt out.
I also feel like he connects better with interviewers who are closer to his age. He's a curmudgeon.
Maybe we dont have the full story, maybe Bruce had to be somewhere very important but was pressured into this interview? I dunno.
"You just gotta be a nice guy."
I don't think people should blame dementia for this. He just had a bad day and was a little grumpy or bored. Nothing to do with the dementia.
What happened after the interview? Did he apologise or did you just walk out?
No apology as such, just said I’d done a great job and said goodbye. I then had to go straight to the PR team who were less than impressed with him, (they apologised) and allowed me to put the full interview out! But let’s face it, what happened worked in terms of publicity for the film! It got us on virtually every news network in the world including CNN!
@@showbizjamie503 he says he’s not acting but he is a little bit 🤣 however obnoxious he comes across it creates a buzz, more so than an actor being nice
And now we see that Bruce is suffering from Aphasia. Explains some things, yes?
Bruce did say he did a great job.👍🏽
This video and Kevin Smith’s stories make me not feel too sorry for Bruce Willis.
There’s no excuse for behaviour like this.
None. You don’t deserve happiness if this is how you treat people.
He's had deteriorating neurodegenerative disease since probably before this interview, which recently forced him to retire early. Dementia and aphasia can cause mood swings and odd behavior.
He wasn’t having any cognitive decline here
he was not rude, he's sick and now we know why he was acting like that..: (
Aphasia doesn’t make you an asshole. Sick or no, Bruce is being a real cunt here.
I love Red & Red 2.
Poor interviewer.
He did great.
I don’t think Bruce was having cognitive decline at this specific time.
He was a poor interviewer. That said they're paid to sell the movie. An interviewer asks a weak question you use it to push your own promotional narrative. They didn't promote the movie well at all which was their job. No set anecdotes, no favourite scenes, no complimenting directors or writers. Christ when he said his favourite line that was a layup for "yes it's all great writing, it suits the characters so well, these guys are not given enough credit, look what a likeable appealing millionaire movie star I am etc etc"
I don't think he had cognitive decline I think he was just lazy and rude frankly.
is bruce going through depression here? it seems very odd and negative to everything including talking about suicide if you watch red2 lol
Dude, he lost almost all his hair. Of course he's depressed and sad nowadays.
He is a b-lister, all washed up.
@@Redaktionen3210 This video is from 2013 dude.. not that he's got any LESS hair nowadays 😂
The ppl that work with him surely knew he had a problem..
Why put him in this kind of challenge ?
Cuz he makes you money??
👎👎👎
Bruce eas completely normal here
The jokes on Bruce. Now he’s the one asking people annoying questions 😂😂😂😂😂
It's so funny lmao ..I hate it anytime a life long jack ass catches some life altering illness ..people come out of the wood works to give him a pass for any transgressions...
Being sick is no excuse for being a prick.
Think about what you just said 💀
I really don't get what happened here.
I met Bruce whilst studying filmmaking in LA. He was the sweetest guy ever. We bonded a lot over blues music and he even laughed that when I said I had a copy of his Best Of CD. He's just a real private guy.
Must have been having an off day.
Funnily enough, we also talked about me having that CD before the cameras rolled. Love his version of Under The Boardwalk.
I think it’s probably it being down to him having cognitive issues at the earlier stages of dementia
They do a lot of press interviews in one day. They get asked the same boring questions repeatedly and they need to reply to it like they haven't already been asked that question 50 times that day
WTF are people doing to Bruce!! They're making fun of him, they are exploiting him, making him look like a fool, all because of greed. How they pretend to be friends and yet when something like this happens they try to suck all they can out of him before he can't act anymore. I have been a Bruce Willis then since 1984 and I still am. He is one of the best actors that has ever been and he's funny as hell! He put others before himself, infectious sexy smile, dedicated family man. I couldn't believe when I found out of his disease and was so sad and looked back and realized I noticed something changed he wasn't Bruce Willis. I feel so angry how he's being exploited, all the money he made you the years and you knew something was wrong with him, but you chose to disrespect, abuse, ignore and use the situation for your own sick pleasure,
you all were lucky to have him in your movies, why did you do this to him? That's a sign of narcissistic personality. You should all be arrested for abuse, neglect, manipulation, knowing before the fact and exploiting Bruce Willis. They all should be called out for what they did and receive punishment.
Breathe in….breathe out
Both pretty charmless.

Naaa I don’t think his condition excuses how much of a prick he was here. He was still pumping out a few quality movies around this time before people really started to become aware of his condition
This is the first time Bruce has acted (up) in years.
he wasn't acting up. he has aphasia, a cognitive disorder that started shortly after Die Hard 3 in 1995
@@kenhew4641 too bad he didn't retire before this
Is this a joke?
Edit: Tim and Eric went around being this shitty while doing promo work but that was a joke. But they’re comedians
That said being over-the-top arrogant gets views as much as being “surprisingly down-to-earth”. And that’s unfortunate. So maybe they’re helping Jamie out inadvertently. I get it, but I lament it.
Any attention is marketable attention but negative attention is still negative. It makes the world shittier.
Seems like he just didn't like the interviewer. That's all
Aphasia early signs of the brain disease.... that's why this interview was off.
It really seems he is very uneasy and she seems very anxious and on edge with Bruce. As if she's seen this before whilst working with him in the period before. I can assume she and the crew had moments where they either didn't know how to deal with his behaviour, or they already knew he had some problems and were used to covering for his behaviour.
Looking back now, Jamie, do you think he was affected by his now diagnosed aphasia? I saw another interview of him of 2013, where he completely lost track and couldn't make sense for a few moments
This was on purpose everyone lol they made it look awkward on purpose lol the host it was his idea I’m sure
Oh, how I wish we were that imaginative! 😅 😂
Is he on a come down?
They fucked his mind soooo bad it’s sad it couldn’t even control his mind “there not coming to take you away” what was that about so who coming to take you away Bruce are they coming for you they already did pay attention
He was better then them though, he didn't let their poor behavior affect him, he just did his job.
Thanks for your continues love❤️ and support,that’s what keeps me going
How long have you been a fan of mine?
Do explain the awkward part.. Didn't notice it. The reporter interviewer guy was wearing the wrong coloured shirt. I understand Bruce Willis being irritated by the interviewer. Given that the interviewer was not asking interesting questions.
its not just being awkward. its called dementia
Ive seen young guys act like this..
I don’t think Aphasia is to blame here, I just think Bruce was in a shitty mood.
his aphasia began shortly after Die Hard 3. That was in 1995. And over 25 years it had gotten worse and worse to now where he's practically a walking vegetative state of a toddler
@@kenhew4641 Aphasia doesnt affect intelligence.
The lady is just as weird
Thanks for your continues love❤️ and support,that’s what keeps me going
How long have you been a fan of mine?
Just outstanding job by Jamie. Now that's what you call professional. Bruce was an absolute bellend in this interview
Really seems this video has been edited to make Bruce seem even weirder and ruder than he actually was... Yepp, Bruce was rude, but the questions were super cringe and straight up bizarre. I get what Bruce meant by "We're not acting now", as the questions were formed in a silly way to make the actors indeed act. The question about "keeping women happy" was super cringe and there was no normal way to answer that question, without playing "stupid" and thinking of something "funny" to say. You could see from Marry Louse facial expression, as you nervously ask that silly question, that she is thinking "Oh dear god please no". Read the room and prepare yourself better, especially when meeting two legends.
Bruce
I had aphasia after I suffered a stroke 5 years ago ( artery burst in my brain) I’m incredibly lucky to be alive and recovering a lot, it’s an incredibly difficult thing to cope with my brain was trying so very very hard to find the correct words and assemble them in the right order but sometimes feelings and emotions get involved and they get added to what is coming out of your mouth as well, but my brain was working at 200% it trying to match my thoughts with the speed of my speech… I know this doesn’t sound right but I totally get it … sometimes you come out with a defensive attitude and it’s just your brain trying to protect yourself from what feels like an attack… I’m 99% better now regarding speech but it’s really devastating to go through 😢
What's sad is people are bringing up old videos and using his newly diagnosed condition as an excuse to make sense of rude things he did in the past or whatever sure he had it for awhile but come on seriously how far back will these go lol...
Yeah that’s kinda where I’m at with it. Don’t use any old video or interview to connect to his condition
When. How. And possibly relevant...Where, did Bruce Willis LOSE HIS FUCKING MIND????? O_o
Same time he lost his hair and a-list status.
