Billy Bush opened up about the ugly moment that changed his career and life, sharing in a new interview that hes now a much nicer person.

The TV personality appeared this on Dennis Quaids podcast, The Dennissance, and talked about the infamous 2005 Access Hollywood tape that resurfaced ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

In the recording, then-The Apprentice host Donald Trump claimed to Bush that hes tried to have sex with a married woman, and that he can grab women by the pussy because hes famous. Widespread backlash to the audio led to Bush being fired from his job at the Today show.

Since then, Trump has gone on to become president, while Bush has been rebuilding his career.

Its such an ugly moment, explained Bush. Yeah, you want to delete it, of course you want to delete it. But you cant and its out there for the world to consume ... Its humiliating, embarrassing, its shitty.

The 48-year-old said that upon the tapes release, he didnt remember the ending part of his chat with Trump.

That famous line, never recalled it. When I heard it, I heard it for the first time because I dont think it ever landed on me, he said.

Bush went on to say that while theres no denying the moment is a terrible moment, the experience gave him more empathy and made him a much nicer person.

Im much more curious about other peoples experiences, he said, adding, I only take the good out of it at this point.

Bush also credited public support and stars like Quaid, Kate Walsh, Cindy Crawford, Julie Bowen and others with why he was given another chance in Hollywood. In September of last year, he was chosen to replace Mario Lopez to host the revamp of Extra, aptly titled ExtraExtra.

Previously, Bush spoke out on his Instagram page about how his life changed in an instant.
