Billy Bush’s 4 Steps for Winning Back Public Trust (Including Kissing Babies)

Billy Bush, reading the book Ass-holes, wants to make America like him again … by doing things like posting this photo. (Photo: Billy Bush via Instagram)

Billy Bush is sorry.

If you didn’t catch that with his Hollywood Reporter sit-down, you did with his Good Morning America interview — it’s been a busy week. Yes, after lying low for seven months, he’s on a public redemption tour in hopes of winning back the respect of the public — and maybe getting a new job. (What, you don’t expect him to live on his $9 million dollar Today show severance do you?)

We’ve seen enough celebrities screw up to notice a pattern — the steps stars take to try to wiggle back into our good graces — and Billy’s apology tour, for laughing during Donald Trump’s infamous “grab them by the p****” comments, is pretty formulaic with a hint of over-the-top (a new photo of him kissing a baby). Let’s break it down…

Billy Bush’s first TV interview since the scandal was with Robin Roberts on Good Morning America on May 22. GMA is the biggest rival of his former show, Today, and he is in the market for a new job. (Photo: Heidi Gutman/ABC via Getty Images)

1. Admit you’ve been a big ole ass. Billy’s been doing it pretty much all along — right away after 2005 audio was leaked leading up to the presidental election, and then later, after his subsequent firing from the Today show, on social media. (The photo above — in which he’s reading a book his friend wrote that he jokingly (?) said had included him, called Ass-holes — is one example.) Seven months later, he’s stepped it up. He told the Hollywood Reporter that when he heard the tape, three days before the rest of the world did, “I was shocked and alarmed and totally and completely gutted. It was awful. And my participation was awful, too. I remember that guy, he was almost sycophantic. It was my first year as co-host of Access Hollywood, and I was an insecure person, a bit of a pleaser, wanting celebrities to like me and fit in.” Talk about taking full responsibility.

The dad of three took it up a notch by telling a story about how his 15-year-old daughter, Mary, cried when she heard the tape and called him out for laughing along at Trump’s lewd comments. “[She] called me from boarding school, and she was in tears: ‘Dad, Dad, Dad,’ and I said, ‘Everything is going to be fine, Mary. Everything’s going to be OK.’ It’s just instinctively what you say to your daughter. And she said, ‘No, why were you laughing at the things that he was saying on that bus, Dad? They weren’t funny.’ It hit really hard, and I stopped for a second, and I said, ‘I have no answer for that that’s any good. I am really sorry. That was Dad in a bad moment a long time ago. You know me. I am really sorry that you had to hear and see that. I love you.’ She needed to hear that, and I certainly needed to tell her that.”

And it was more of the same in his interview with Good Morning America this week, going so far as saying, “I sacrificed … my own dignity in that moment.”

2. Make it clear you’ve apologized to injured parties. Bush made it clear that he apologized to Nancy O’Dell, his one-time Access Hollywood co-host whom Trump was talking about shamelessly trying to bed while she was married — though he wouldn’t get into specifics about what he said. (“I need to keep that between me and Nancy.”) O’Dell confirmed on her show, Entertainment Tonight, that Billy sent her an apology three weeks ago and she wished him well in a polite, but distant manner. (Perhaps because he probably should have apologized seven months ago.) Though no mention of any apology to soap star Arianne Zuker, who was another target of the so-called “locker room talk.”

Billy also he made sure to distance himself from Trump in both interviews, making it clear they have no relationship outside the handful of interviews they did. He also noted that he hadn’t talked to the now-president since 2015.

3. Talk about what you’ve done to change. The public always wants to know that the person has done something to try to change and Billy offered up… his exercise regimen and reading list. He talked at length about his soul searching, which included a stint at a Napa Valley healing retreat, meditating,  yoga, boxing, reading books like 10% Happier, and walking on hot coals with spiritual guru Tony Robbins.

4. Kiss some babies. Perhaps our favorite step though is this one. We had to laugh when, in this midst of trying to get people to like him again, his former colleague Hoda Kotb shared pix of Billy kissing and cuddling her baby, Haley Joy, earlier today. It’s like: OK, we get it. You want us to think you’re a good guy. Just a hint, but a little subtly goes a long way.

Haley met billy ???????????? sweet day xo

A post shared by Hoda Kotb (@hodakotb) on May 25, 2017 at 6:39am PDT

Bush also made it clear that while walking on fiery coals and reading books are good for the soul and everything, he wants to get back to work.  He’s been “developing a series designed to show audiences a deeper and more empathetic side to him,” the Hollywood Reporter reporter.

So we guess we should prepare for more photos of Billy cuddling babies on his long road back.

'La La Land,' 'Stranger Things' and 'Atlanta' sweep 2017 PGA Awards

“La La Land” is easily sweeping up all the awards this year, but Netflix’s “Stranger Things” jumped in on the action along with “Atlanta” for the 28th annual Producers Guild Awards (PGA).

The musical comedy-drama went up against “Arrival,” “Deadpool,” “Fences,” “Hacksaw Ridge,” “Hell or High Water,” “Hidden Figures,”  “Lion,” “Manchester by the Sea,” and “Moonlight,” but was able to come out the winner which was presented by Dustin Hoffman.

The guild recognized the candy-colored musical with its Darryl F. Zanuck Award for theatrical motion picture production Saturday, a prize that often precedes the best picture Academy Award. (Last year was an exception, when “The Big Short” won the guild award, while “Spotlight” got the Oscar.) The nominees for the guild’s top film prize echo Oscars’ best picture nominees this year, with the exception of “Deadpool,” which made the cut with producers but not the film academy.

But the guild’s celebration at the Beverly Hilton Hotel of the year’s outstanding film and television productions had a decidedly political tone, as President Donald Trump’s ban on refugees and visitors from several Muslim countries triggered protests in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Seattle and other cities.

“Our America is big, it is free, and it is open to dreamers of all races, all countries, all religions,” singer John Legend said as he introduced “La La Land” at Saturday’s untelevised ceremony. “Our vision of America is directly antithetical to that of President Trump. I want to specifically, tonight, reject his vision and affirm America has to be better than that.”

Ezra Edelman, producer and director of “O.J.: Made in America,” which claimed the guild’s documentary prize, echoed Legend’s sentiments.

“Please keep telling stories that are about our humanity,” he said.

Other winners Saturday included “Zootopia” for animated feature, “Atlanta” for episodic television comedy and “Stranger Things” for episodic TV drama.

Presenters included Justin Timberlake, Octavia Spencer, Taraji P. Henson, Nicole Kidman, Jeff Bridges, Kerry Washington, Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese. Veteran producers James L. Brooks, Tom Rothman and Irwin Winkler received special awards.

Dustin Hoffman presented the night’s top prize. As producer Marc Platt accepted for “La La Land,” he said, “The power of cinema cannot be denied and has no borders … We must believe love can change our lives, much as it can change the world.”
