CNN's Anderson Cooper had a tough time keeping it together during the pun-filled 'Ridiculist' segment Wednesday night.
Cooper was overcome by a fit of giggles after a story about French actor Gerard Depardieu, who is accused of public urination on the floor of his Paris to Dublin flight.
"Depardieu reportedly peed on the floor," said Cooper. "Apparently the plane was on the tarmac and the flight attendant told him he'd have to wait to use the bathroom until takeoff."
"So Depardieu created his own little jet stream or, as the French would say, Weewe. When I first heard this story this morning, I thought there was no way it was real but the airline confirmed it beyond any shadow of skepticism."
"Hm.. CityJet? I would have guessed he files InContinental. Anyway, while the airline was busy putting the P back in PR, some of the passengers just couldn't hold it anymore and started spilling their versions of the incident of the press."
"Can you blame them? They saw an actual thespian actually thes-pee-in. Oh, it's full of puns," he laughed as he told his staff to stop distracting him with their giggles.
"All I can say, they should thank their lucky stars it wasn't Depar-two. Sorry, that made me giggle every time I read it," he said as he lost it. "This has actually never happened to me."
