“You ate them?” he asked.
“Yes,” responds Gerard Depardieu, before detailing again his account of what happened. “We broke down on a track in the bush, in Burkina Faso. The two lions waited in front of us and wouldn’t move. Hours passed, and we couldn’t get out of the car, the African driver was very afraid.
“We had no choice; we had to shoot them,” he concludes simply.
Gerard Depardieu also discussed the 2011 incident when he was thrown off an Air France flight for urinating in the aisle while the plane prepared to take off.
“I have lots of friends in the UK. And in Ireland. Where incidentally I recently p****d in a plane,” he said. “There was this air hostess un peu depressive, and I urgently wanted a p**s. We’d been delayed 45 minutes, there were seven planes in front of us, and the hostess blocked me with her foot, so I p****d in a bottle.
