Mon dieu!
Legendary French film star Gerard Depardieu urinated on the floor of an airplane -- while passengers looked on -- after a skirmish with a flight attendant, according to multiple reports.

The actor, 62, was on a delayed Air France flight from Paris to Dublin on Tuesday when he demanded permission to leave his seat and relieve himself.
A passenger named "Danielle" told French radio station Europe 1 that Depardieu exclaimed "I want to piss, I want to piss" -- but to no avail. A flight attendant informed him that the toilets were locked as the plane ascended to cruising altitude, and that the star would have to wait 15 minutes.

Depardieu (perhaps the most well known French actor) then took matters into his own hands -- unzipping his pants and urinated on the carpet.
"And there and then he stood up and did it on the floor," the passenger claimed. "We could see he had been drinking. The stewardess was dumbfounded."

In response to the report, a rep for Air France-KLM said simply: "I will only confirm that he, in effect, urinated in the plane."

He could've at least done it into a barf bag or asked for a trash bag. He was in a few movies once upon a time, but he doesn't qualify as legendary.
Wow, the only thing I am wondering was HOW LONG they were on the ground before take off. I have been on a plane where they did the SAME thing because we were on a runway but we had been on that dang plane for HOURS. I was like listen we are not moving and I have to pee NOW or I can not control what may eventually happens". So they let the passengers use the bathrooms after 4 hours on the runway. If not then maybe he was drunk or had mental issues.
Watch Anderson Cooper lose it over a Depardieu joke on his show tonight. Hilarious! Search Anderson Cooper Loses It on CNN on Youtube!
There is no excuse for his behavior, and I've lost a majority of my respect for him.
He was so drunk that he had no idea what was going on around him. Seat belt sign off or on, he did not care at the time. Again, someone who thinks they are above the law. Legendary, no way, has been yes.
Um Hello? Anyone ever hear of rules and regulations? The flight attendants weren't trying to punish him. He only had to wait 15 minutes. There is no excuse for his behavior, he has flown often enough to know the rules. He didn't have to get wasted.
Aren't the French the ones who always bag on Americans for being fat all of the time? How ironic.
He had to go Oui Oui! Haha. But seriously, they deserved it!
How do you say "I'm an incontinent fat idiot" in French?
