Gary Busey’s Crazy Train Keeps On Chugging

By now, you’ve likely seen the viral video in which the suddenly omnipresent Gary Busey castigates a child reporter on the red carpet for failing to speak loudly enough to penetrate the hardened layer of ear wax that he has built up over the years. But what you probably haven’t seen is the response of said child reporter Gracie Stagg, who is milking the moment for all it’s worth, just like a miniature Martin Bashir.

We’ll cut the adorable moppet (who’s apparently tight with Paris Hilton, btw) some slack for acquiring a sudden case of cottonmouth and freezing up on camera like a modern day Cindy Brady, but we won’t do the same for the ABC news reporter who interviewed her. While we’ll admit to not exactly being up on the protocols of interviewing children, we’re pretty sure that it’s not appropriate to ask an 11-year-old whether or not it seemed “like [Gary Busey] had too much to drink or what?” when he accosted her. Utah, gimme two!
