Musicians, especially rock stars, are well known for their flamboyant and outrageous personalities. But don't all musicians eventually turn into regular people when they go to the grocery store or put gas in their cars or whatever? Not all of them. Here are musicians you wouldn't want to meet.

Billy Bob Thornton, while not acting on-screen, also plays in a band. He really, really wants you to know that and to not ask him about his day job. His band, the Boxmasters, had a run of gigs they were promoting on a Toronto radio station when the host, Jian Ghomeshi, had the misfortune of mentioning that Thornton had been in some movies in the past. Entertainment Weekly reported that Thornton bristled at his work being brought up and then gave a master class on being difficult on the air.

Questions were evaded or flat-out ignored with stunning tenacity. Ghomeshi noted that the band was currently on tour with Willie Nelson. Pretty cool, right? Thornton's response?

"Uhh, I've never met him."

The air was thick with ridicule and hostility, and Thornton eventually said the host had been instructed not to bring up his acting career.

The Boxmasters were supposed to play a song in the studio, but Thornton refused to join, apparently making up a lie that he didn't have his drums with him and then just bouncing from the studio altogether. Funnily enough, the Toronto shows he was promoting ended with the band being booed because of his on-air antics, according to Rolling Stone. Two subsequent shows were canceled.
