Sounding similar to former republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush, Chris Evans apparently didn't handle the very first taping of the all-new incarnation of Top Gear very well. Although Evans is an entertainer by trade, he's used to being a broadcaster and not in front of the camera.

If what we're hearing is true this frustration played out in front of a studio audience in the worst of ways.

Predominantly, this led to a bit of a tirade and Evans asking for the audience to laugh at his jokes. Yeesh!

According to reports, on-site the filming took four hours. This is, more or less, to be expected given the show is one hour and it does have an interview portion. Problem is Evans made cracks at Clarkson and company for taking three hours to film their live in-studio shots. Evans reportedly said his Top Gear would take only one hour to film the studio segments.

If that wasn't bad enough, the blockbuster first guest was suppose to be Brad Pitt. He canceled. This means the producers had to scramble to get Jesse Eisenberg and Gordon Ramsay to commit. Hopefully things progress as the show gets into the swing of things.


CHRIS Evans launched into an four-letter rant at Top Gear audience members and demanded they laugh at his jokes.

The host, 50, snapped during recording of segments for the revamped show: “Don’t fold your arms, don’t wear black. Take it off – take everything off.

“Don’t fold your arms, don’t have your hands in your pockets. F***, f***, f***, f***, f***.”
