See, Billy Bob has a band now ... and he demands to be taken seriously -- as in, Billy demanded that the radio host treat him like he would treat Tom Petty.

Seriously, Billy compared himself to Tom Petty.

It all went down today during a CBC interview -- Jian Ghomeshi, the interviewer, introduced the band -- including a few words about Billy's film career -- which caused Billy to become a massive d-bag for the rest of the interview.

You gotta watch it -- unless you wanna continue to like Billy Bob.

Our photog did ... and was never seen again.

James Caan "has confused himself with his character from the first "Godfather" movie and thinks he can act like a bully..." -- so alleges a film company that Caan sued.

Fish Weir Filmworks has answered Caan's $2 million lawsuit, in which the actor claims the company screwed him out of his fee for a starring role in "The Lightkeepers."

In its answer, Fish Weir attempted to out-prose Caan's lawyer, Marty Singer, by alleging "Caan is an actor whose life and career have had more ups and downs than the average roller coaster...."

Fish Weir claims it never had a contract with Caan. The company's lawyer gratuitously mentioned that Caan has had 3 divorces and after one of them "he moved into the Playboy Mansion to 'recover.'"

For the record, the answer doesn't hold a candle to the complaint, in which Singer alleged Fish Weir "like some miscreant characters from the hit televison drama 'Las Vegas,' thought they could pull one over on Caan and get away with it."

Check out the script for the soon-to-be-made porn version of the show ... and it's not half bad. There's some character development, quirky dialogue ... pretty much just like a regular episode of "Scrubs," except with sex scenes -- so it's better.

Dude is way less hairy and way less funny -- but you gotta give Ashton props on his body. Demi could do her laundry on that stomach ... if she actually did her own laundry.

According to a recent Craigslist posting, the casting crew for "The Baster" is looking for a "heavy set woman" and a "woman with a round face, small eyes, and upturned nose" to have profanities shouted at them in a scene for the movie. Also, they're looking for a skinny boy with bad acne. He'll probably have profanities thrown at him too.

Any one interested in letting beautiful celebrities demean them can reply to the post -- but only if you live in the New York area.

That's one helluva mug he's got.
