‘Extra’ host Billy Bush makes lewd joke about Kendall Jenner in hot mic

A lawsuit widely known in Hollywood as the “Friends” case aims to protect creatives’ use of free speech throughout their collaboration process, which is what was taking place when Bush made the comment about Jenner, 27.

A source adds exclusively to Page Six, “There was no malicious intent on Bush’s part as he was working through material in the show’s normal creative process.”

Jenner’s rep did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment.

Ultimately, Bush’s remark about the “Kardashians” star did not make the air, and instead the broadcaster said in the segment on “Extra,” “It’s going to be hard to see ‘Toy Story’ the same way ever again. Kendall saddled up as the redheaded cowgirl Jessie, complete with a crop top, chaps and denim shorts.”

Bush’s latest controversial, off-camera joke comes just as he had begun to repair his image following another leaked tape from 2005.

In that audio, the entertainment news host chatted along with Trump, 76, while on the set of “Access Hollywood,” telling the real estate mogul that his “Days of Our Lives” co-star Arianne Zucker was “hot as sh–!

“Yes! The Donald has scored!” Bush added. “Whoa, my man. You gotta look at her… Give her the thumbs-up. You gotta give the thumbs-up… Oh my God!”

Trump, who was best known at the time for hosting “Celebrity Apprentice,” then said he could do anything to women in Hollywood, even “grab ’em by the p—y.”

Bush immediately expressed his remorse once the tape came out in 2016.

“Looking back on what was said on that bus, I wish I had changed the topic,” the radio host previously told the Hollywood Reporter.
