Josh Duhamel is the latest celebrity to get the message that just because you starred in a cheesy TV show (“Las Vegas”) and three really stupid movies that a lot of people paid good money to see and just because you’re married to the global phenomenon of fabulosity that is Fergie — who, as a member of the Black Eyed Peas, has sold more records than most entire genres — doesn’t mean you don’t have to follow the same darn rules as everybody else.
Duhamel, who is married to Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas, was sat onboard the flight from LaGuardia Airport to Kentucky using his BlackBerry phone before take-off, TMZ.com reports.
When a flight attendant asked the actor to turn his phone off, Duhamel refused and allegedly became ‘very rude’ and began ‘taunting the attendant’ one passenger told TMZ.
The drama unfolded after Duhamel was reportedly asked to switch off his phone three times and when he refused, the plane left the runway and returned to the gate.
Two police officers then boarded the plane and Duhamel was escorted off before the aircraft was allowed to leave again.
Duhamel’s representative says that the actor was texting on his phone and that ‘he’s sorry’ for the incident.
