Should CBC say thank you to Billy Bob?

>So we’ve all seen/heard about the Billy Bob Thornton video on CBC. Â But what impressed me the most was the sheer numbers of people who have seen the video. Â The clip has already had nearly 1,020,000 views and it’s only been up for just over a day!

Suck on that lonely girl.

It’s also been featured on HUGE celebrity sites like Perez Hilton, DListed and TMZ. Â And yes, I purposely didn’t link to TMZ because that site hurts my whole soul.

The video has exploded all over the internet, which luckily means that hopefully by the time the weekend rolls around millions of Â people will know how cool the CBC is (specificallyÂ Jian Ghomeshi). Â I guess that’s one way of getting Stephen Harper’s attention.

Still not impressed?

Check out all the honors the video already has on Youtube. (If it doesn’t say the country, they mean the USA)
