Billy Bush, a longtime entertainment news correspondent at Access Hollywood and Extra, is now joining Fox News as a contributor.
Varietynotes that his addition is a “potential sign that the outlet is growing more eager to cover the worlds of celebrity and popular culture.” His role is expected to be shared more in depth later today, and he’s appearing on Jesse Watters Primetimetonight.
“I’m excited to join Fox News Media and its loyal audience to share my perspective on the people, ideas and moments shaping today’s culture…. as well as the ones trying to undo it!” Billy said in a statement.
Bush was the subject of a major controversy back in 2016. When Trump was running for President, a now-infamous Access Hollywood tape was leaked. The conversation was between Trump and Bush.
“You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful, I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the pu–y,” Trump could be heart saying. “You can do anything.” Bush later penned an essay about the incident.
