Billy Bob Thornton’s band has canceled its Canadian tour.

On Wednesday, the actor-turned-singer, 53, became belligerent during a Canadian radio interview when asked about his Hollywood career. The next day, he was booed while performing with his band, the Boxmasters. (See that interview here!)

The band was Willie Nelson’s opening act. A note posted on Nelson’s Web site Friday night said the Boxmasters were cutting their Canadian dates “due to one band member and several of the crew having the flu.”

On their own Web site, they said they planned to rejoin the tour on April 14 in Stamford, Conn., “after they’ve had time to recover.”

The Real Housewives of New York star Kelly Bensimon hasn’t put away her cat claws.

In May’s Harper’s Bazaar, she attacks Bethenny Frankel (again) for saying she has an “inauthenticity” to her in an early episode of the Bravo show.

“Is Bethenny a socialite? No.” Bensimon, 40, says. “Will she ever sit next to [socialite] Lauren DuPont? No. Is she best friends with [Estee Lauder Senior Vice President] Aerin Lauder? No. Am I? No. Do I care? No. Does she? Oh, absolutely. She’s not authentic.”

“All she does is sit there and cry all the time,” she continues. “I’m like, You’re crying about guys? And shut up.”

Wait, there’s more.

“Honestly, if being inauthentic means graduating from Columbia University, writing three books, starting two magazines, bearing two children [daughters Sea, 10, and Teddy, 8], being the ambassador for wool, running a marathon for charity — if that’s inauthentic? Tell me what authentic is,” she says.

In an email to Usmagazine.com, Frankel, 38, laughs off Bensimon’s remarks: “Who is Lauren DuPont? The only person I want to hang out with is Jill Zarin.”

Benismon — who faces a misdemeanor assault charge after she allegedly punched her ex-boyfriend, Nick Stefanov — also says she has some regrets about appearing on the show.

“One of the worst things about putting yourself out there is exposing yourself to situations you never dreamed would be a reality,” she says.

Still, asked if she could be anyone else for a day, she replies, “I would be me. Every single day. With criticism, without criticism. Just to be me. Because what’s so bad about that?”

Answer after the jump! (more…)

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt took self promotion to a whole new level as they arrived a Crown Bar in Hollywood on April 9, 2009. After they arrived in a Heidi driven Aston Martin, the blonde aspiring pop star proceeded to pose for photogs on the hood of the car before busting out in a lip synced performance of her song “Look How I’m Doing.” She hammed it up as she danced around awkwardly and “sang” her heart out while Pratt recorded the whole thing for an upcoming music video for the song. Hopefully this video turns out better than the widely panned Pratt directed video for “Higher.”
