Billy Bush’s Failed Comeback — ‘Washed Up’ Star

Billy Bush was booted from "Today" after he was caught with Donald Trump in a controversial audio tape — and now he's panicking over how Hollywood still won't forgive him!

The National ENQUIRER has already revealed how Billy was rejected by "Dancing With the Stars." Now the New York Post's "Page Six" column has talked to an insider who says that Billy is shocked at the lack of interest after he went public about his regret over the Trump tape. “He thought he was going to be welcomed back by the world after the TV segment [with Robin Roberts],” a source said. “And the only thing you learned from the article and TV piece is that Billy wants to be on TV!”

A source close to Billy has denied reports of career problems, but his most recent work is reflecting his outcast status! Billy has reportedly signed on to a low-budget film called "Washed Up" — in a bit of stunt casting for the movie about a woman struggling to salvage her career. He'll also be seen alongside Jerry Seinfeld and the late Alan Thicke in "A Fatherless Generation," a documentary about the "emotional trauma caused by growing up" without a father.
