BIG NEWS on Hollywood's Oldest Crazy Celebrity, Gary Busey
Crazy Celebrity Gary Busey on the red carpet BEING BUSEY.
Forty years ago actor Gary Busey quit The Monkees and invented Hollywood's most famous catchphrase -- at the same time!
The original drummer for The Monkees, Gary Busey accused his fellow boy band members of SELLING OUT and wasting their IMMENSE TALENT before storming off the set of their new TV series by the same name.
While The Monkees skyrocketed to international fame and fortune, Gary Busey spent the next decade pursuing his true passions: crashing his motorcycle without a helmet and making up strange acronyms that don't mean S.H.I.T. to anyone but Gary Busey -- usually but not always at the same time. Allegedly.
In 1978, however, his life took a turn for the better when Gary Busey somehow landed the lead role in The Buddy Holly Story. He remained Busey through the years, but the subsequent millions Gary Busey made as an actor nonetheless upgraded him from WEIRD AS FUCK to an ECCENTRIC WEIRDO, but only to people who haven't seen him BEING BUSEY on the Surreal Life or the Red Carpet.

Mike, I'm relieved that Gary quit the Monkees. I love that band.
Yeah, me too. It's hard to imagine Gary Busey singing, or drumming, "Hey, hey, we're the Monkees And people say we monkey around. But we're too busy singing, to put anybody down!"
