Read this post by the digital spy regarding Hollywood actor and comedian Bill Murry:
Bill Murray has claimed that he set up his own toll-free hotline where studio executives and agents can leave a message because he doesn’t want to be harassed by them. The actor has insisted that if the message is “interesting” enough, he returns the call but otherwise he enjoys the hassle-free method of avoiding trivial business meetings, reports Contactmusic.
The 59-year-old said: “I have this phone number that they call and talk. And then I listen. I just sort of decide. I might listen and say, ‘Okay, why don’t you put it on a piece of paper, and if it’s interesting, I’ll call you back, and if it’s not, I won’t’.
