Gary Busey is an American actor best known for his roles in Point Break and The Buddy Holly Story, and his reputation for bizarre behaviour.
After growing up in Oklahoma, he attended Kansas State University on a football scholarship, but his dreams of pursuing a career in professional sports were shattered after injuring his knee. He then moved to Hollywood to pursue a music career, but acting beckoned.
After securing several small roles in both film and television during the 1970s, he made his film debut in Angels Hard As They Come in 1971. Following this he starred as the lead in The Buddy Holly Story, which led to him winning an Academy Award nomination.
Later in Gary’s acting career, he took on more sinister roles in the action thrillers Lethal Weapon (1987), Predator 2 (1990), and of course Point Break (1991), with Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze. He also played a cameo role as himself in the comedy Entourage.
Gary had a near-fatal motorcycle accident in 1989 after he rode without a helmet. This resulted in the enactment of stricter helmet laws in the State of California.
The accident split his skull open and he was taken to hospital for immediate surgery. Gary claims that his brain got altered – it was a wake-up call to get his life in order and to appreciate it. He recovered two and a half months earlier than predicted, and says his faith was the reason.
Gary has three children – son Jake with his first wife Judy, daughter Alectra with Tracy Hutchinson and son Luke with his wife Steffanie Sampson. He has black belts in budo-jujitsu, capoeira, hapkido, and kendo.

I would love to know Sandy how YOU know Gary has a shitty bum ? pray tell ……………..perhaps this could be your problem ? perhaps you need to lighten up ? perhaps you could “find” some tolerance” ? then perhaps not .
@Margaret Rose
Well Margaret Rose, it’s a well know fact that not even washing your hands properly for the recommend timeframe can spread faecal matter so when it comes to bums thats even worse. As it has been mentioned many times by almost all of the housemates Mr Buseys hygiene has been called into question and going without showers for days, well I hate to think what may be stuck to his bum.
It’s really a very silly question you pose regarding personal hygiene. I would like to know if you would sit there after Gary without the seat being cleaned.
It actually makes me question your personal hygiene.
@Sandi
wink: and you are the only sane one I presume
@Sandy You talk about hygiene. It also a well know fact that computer keyboards hold millions of germs. So, do you wash your hands every time you type a letter??
@Kent
I don’t quite understand why anyone in their right mind would say
Give it a rest Sharon aka Sandy
It just doesn’t make sense.
Am I missing something here?
As I said when you asked me what I thought about James. I am more than happy to have a reasonable discussion but all these silly questions, sarcasm and accusation are simply ridiculous.
I just had someone ask who I know Gary has a dirty bum, DAH. Well everyone poops. It’s just a silly question.
@bob
Bob, now your just being silly. What more can I say.
@Sandy Try laughing it helps… lol
@Sandy
Your pontifications are beginning to bore me.
Meaning of pontification according to the Urban Dictionary ……………………………..
Posturing…speaking to people that don’t really care what you say one way or another since you’re speaking solely to front yourself as “someone in charge”.
Speech or written communication that is generally pointless except to cast favorable light upon the speaker or author as if the message were a pronouncement from on high.
Usually full of shit.
@Kent
Easy fixed
Don’t ask me questions.
Glad you own a dictionary.
@Sandy
good !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Sandy
Nobody, least of all Margaret Rose suggested that anyone sit on that blasted chair without it being cleaned first.
As well as being pompous, you have an unfortunate habit of putting words into people’s mouths.
@Kent
Love it Kent…..keep them coming.
Garry explained that his Knee brace had moved and it was causing him some pain, we don’t Know how much pain he was in because nobody asked him or offered help, he was clearly distressed and looking for a solution to relieve the pain what a shame that the reaction of the house was only that people would be offended by his bare bum. if this had been an emergency it would have been game over for the rest of the house mates.
@Maggie
And if it had been Riccis bare bum Dee would have drowned him in drool 😀 😀
@Sandy
My question Sandy was “how you know etc.,” not “who I know etc.”…..you really should read what is written, not what you think is written. Try cooling down and chill out. We all love an eccentric, it is the British way, and most of us are as “mad as a box of frogs”……..cheers…….
@jennyjuniper
Now now you are all acting like a pack of yappy naughty little dogs. All bark and no bite.
If you all stayed on topic it might be interesting but all this nonsense, you really are making yourselves look really very silly, very much the same as Mr Busey does.
@Sandy Looks who’s talking now….
@bob
Here’s a fun fact for all of the “ABUSEY” followers.
Did you know that Mr Busey and his fiancé/wife
(Depending on which interview they give it flips from wife to fiancé)
Claim to be the parents of, wait for it this will knock your sock off…
Constantine the Emperor of Rome no less.
I wonder if Gary wore pants when he rode into the Alamo. Hate to think how painful all that chaffing would be. Maybe his knee is an old, old, old war wound. YEEE HAAA!!!!
Meant to read first Gulf war
@Sandy
He is an eccentric old man – but so what ?
@jennyjuniper
Hi jenny how you doing..read your post above did you find out what a buffon was ? 😀 do you think it should of been buffoon..maybe its a secret language you never know..maybe ballon is a balloon..mon is a moon..spon is a spoon..and last night gary was moning ooppss i nean mooning 😀
@ste
Hi Ste, Lol 😀 😀 No Sandy never did tell me what a Buffon is, but no doubt there will be a monologue to follow shortly, although short is hardly the description of those looooooong and repetitive lectures, sorry I mean posts. 😀
Hi Jenny total aside but while we are discussing moons the moon will be very large tonight if anyone interested in that sort of thing. Also being a full moon might explain the behaviour of some people.@jennyjuniper
@jennyjuniper
Hi Jenny – your right, but I have to admit I just posted a long one too !! – still good grief this site is getting daft isn’t it? 😀
@Sandy
Put it this way Sandy, even if Gary is as mad as a box of frogs, as Margaret Rose so humorously put it, I would rather spend time with an eccentric, INTERESTING man like him, than a pompous, unfeeling, buttoned up person like yourself.
