Hollywood's Biggest Douchebags

Personally I think the smoking bans are draconian limitations of personal choice and individual freedom, but you just know Penn would be leading the charge against this kind of petty shit, if he personally didn't want to smoke.


Sean Penn leads Cannes revolt against French smoking ban

US actor and director Sean Penn lit up and led a minor revolt at the Cannes film festival against France's draconian new anti-smoking laws.
Penn, the head of the jury that will pick the best films, pulled out a cigarette and puffed on it at a press conference with fellow jury members, in defiance of laws in place since January that ban smoking in public enclosed spaces.

He only took a couple of drags before putting it aside and getting back to answering reporters' questions.

But jury member Marjane Satrapi, an Iranian director clearly inspired by her colleague's defiance, then asked to much laughter if anyone minded if she smoked "for medical reasons."

She then lit a cigarette, with Penn and French actress Jeanne Balibar quickly following suit.

I would actually PREFER if all you cancer self-inflicting nut sacks would smoke INSIDE. Some asshat is trying to burn down the whole county around here.
