Dan Aykroyd Walks Out During TV Interview

Dan Aykroyd
Ghostbusters star Dan Aykroyd has been in Australia promoting his new line of vodka but one of his talk show appearances ended with him cursing out the host.

According to Web Pro News, Dan was chatting with host Ellen Fanning on SBS talk show The Observer Effect when she refused to allow him to plug his Crystal Head vodka.

Things were reportedly running smoothly when the 61-year-old was chatting about his childhood and career but things escalated when Fanning would not discuss the booze.

Aykroyd reportedly ripped his sunglasses off and proceeded to mention the full line of vodka products before storming out. He was overheard outside allegedly calling the host a "f**king hosebag."

According to The Daily Telegraph, the network requested that Ellen and the show's producer apologize to Dan but they refused and asked that he be the one to apologize. SBS claimed that "advertorials are not part of the show's format."

During his tour in Australia, Aykroyd also visited the Fitzy & Wippa Show on NovaFM 96.9 in Sydney.
