Billy Bush has a very interesting interview style. It somehow simultaneously seems so surface-level, yet he always finds himself in controversies usually reserved for tough journalists who will stop at nothing to get the truth from their guests. Ricky Martin reportedly got so pissed off by Bush’s line of questioning that he pulled off his microphone and walked out of their interview.
This was in the early 2000s, before Ricky Martin officially announced that he’s a homosexual man. The rumors had been mounting around the “Livin’ La Vida Loca” singer for years regarding his sexuality. Barbara Walters pressed Martin on these rumors, and despite him opting not to respond, he later said he felt incredibly violated by the questions.
