Gerard Depardieu Kicked Off Airplane for Peeing

More like Gerard Depard-eww, am I right?!

Okay, just about everyone has made that joke by now, but it's just too perfect for this incredibly odd story. French actor Gerard Depardieu, whom you might remember from that 1994 classic "My Father the Hero," was kicked off of a flight today for urinating in the aisle of the plane.

Apparently what happened was this: Depardieu attempted to use the restroom after the plane had left the gate, but before it had taken off. The flight attendants on board told him that he wasn't allowed to do so, so Depardieu did what any normal person would do: he peed into a bottle, right there in the aisle.

Some reports say that the plane was then taken back to the gate and Depardieu was booted off the plane.

This ultra-classy story has so captured the imagination of the general public that Gerard Depardieu has been trending on Twitter since the story broke.

Funny Or Die had this to say: "You know who's really pissed? Gerard Depardieu's fellow passengers. Also, the floor of that plane & probably his pants a little."

And Twitter funnyman @PaulyPeligroso had this gem: "Can I be the first to call Gerard Depardieu 'Pee Pee Le Pew'?" Not bad, Pauly.
