BUSEY APOLOGISES FOR RED CARPET BLUNDER

GARY BUSEY has publicly apologised for his bizarre behaviour on the red carpet at the Oscars last month (Feb08) when he lunged at a terrified JENNIFER GARNER and planted an unwanted kiss on her neck. The actress and pal Laura Linney were in the middle of a live interview when Busey approached the pair and embraced and kissed them. Nervous Garner had to struggle to maintain her composure as Busey then stood right next to her for the remainder of the televised interview with U.S. TV and radio personality Ryan Seacrest, before Linney dragged her away to safety. Busey has since revealed he had no idea the ladies were being interviewed live, and now he's making a public apology on TV. Speaking on U.S. TV show Extra, he says, "I got very excited and I did not know Ryan Seacrest was doing an interview. I apologised to Jennifer, I apologised to (husband) Ben (Affleck), I apologised to Ryan."
