‘This Is A Hatchet Job!’: ‘The Wolf Of Wall Street’ Jordan Belfort Brings His Thunder Down Under In 60 Minutes Australia Hissy Fit

He didn’t start throwing lobsters or hundreds, but Jordan Belfort’s mercurial side reared its ugly head when the convicted flimflam man angrily stormed off of the set of a 60 Minutes Australia interview after the line of questioning -- about his current business affairs -- began hitting the most sensitive of nerves.
As we previously reported, Belfort, whose grand scale stock schemes were portrayed by an Oscar-nominated Leonardo DiCaprio in last year’s The Wolf of Wall Street, abruptly ended the discussion with journalist Liz Hayes, ranting that he wasn’t “going to get attacked,” and telling the female journalist, “You’ve got a lot of nerve, boy.”
In the airing of the heated discussion, Belfort’s temper flared up after Hayes began grilling him about his current means of income, and ongoing issues with the federal government.
“Since you’ve stonewalled me at every step, I’m not gonna get attacked here,” Belfort said in his signature Long Island accent. “I said enough about this, let’s move on. You're a very nice woman but I’m starting to think this is obviously a hatchet job!”
