'The Hills' Himbo Brody Jenner Kicked Off Airplane for Using Cell Phone

Hey, it looks like sometimes "stars" just aren't like "us," at least when they're flouting rules about using handheld devices on airplanes during take-off. According to TMZ, do-nothing himbo and reality star Brody Jenner -- the son of Olympic decathlete Bruce Jenner and sometime love interest of Lauren Conrad on MTV's The Hills -- was kicked off of an American Airlines flight due to take off from Dallas this past Saturday.
Apparently the one-time bad-boy 'Prince of Malibu' refused to turn off his handheld device, even though flight staff had asked him to. (Jenner was most likely tapping his fingers on a Sidekick, as evidenced by the pictures of his various appearances at launch parties for that iconic keyboard device, below). But Jenner was not alone -- several other passengers refused to turn off their mobiles and got obnoxious with the flight attendants. All offenders, including Jenner, were escorted off the plane by airport police.
According to TMZ, charges were not pressed, and Jenner and others were rebooked on the more downscale ATA airways, which, ironically, is even more strict on the in-flight handheld ban than American, as evidenced by the fate of this poor guy.
So the next time any of you reality or less-than-reality folks out there decide to send one last text message as you're taxi-ing down the runway, make sure you're nice to the flight attendants. Oh, and for the love of God, turn off your cell phones!

I saw how out of control both Jenner brothers were on their "Princes of Malibu". They think because they have been pampered and spoiled all their lives they are better than anyone else. Wake up and join the real world Brody, they have reasons for NOT using cell phones, etc. It interferes with the electronics on the plane & therefore can affect YOUR safety (not to mention everyone elses.)

What a bunch of a-hole passengers.

The parents of these kids kill me! Just what are his father and idiotic step-mother teaching him? Remember, these are the same people who encourage thier daughter's skanky behaviour! By the way, when did Bruce get so scary looking, I thought Kenny Rogers plastic surgery was bad, but Bruce's face makes Kenny look normal!

These spoiled brats think they're almighty & rules don't apply to THEM. Well,, I'm sorry, but the airlines are concerned about SAFETY,namely YOURS. I don't own a cell, a Blackberry or Blueberry! What's the big deal about text??? No WONDER the young punks don't pay attention. They're 2 bizzy miss spelling werds on their devices. Geez!

Apparently the Airport police were in the Christmas spirit and didn't press any changes. Now I have another name to add to my list of "unwatchables." One sure way for the common man to express his opinion is to not patronize the efforts of this kind of Hollywood brat.

The article writer just had to abuse God's name (tossing it about casually), didn't he? "For the love of God" need not have been said. Why? Because turning off one's cell phone doesn't show love for God; striving to live by ALL of God's commandments shows love of God. To wit, 1 John 5:3 (written 60 years after Jesus' death on the cross): "and this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome."

mrs rDec 20th 2007 4:13PM
cells dont enterfear with the plane but it is a rule so should be honored just the same .daddy smack your kid
NicoleDec 20th 2007 4:13PM
The funny part in all this is that the FCC has proved that cell phone transmissions don't disrupt pilots or the aircraft, because they use different frequencies... But it's pretty useless to try to use a cell in the air anyway, because you don't get service.
All this BS about how it's dangerous is just that... BS.
LuchDec 20th 2007 4:24PM
To the poster "Nicole", you are an idiot. So what if it actually does not interfere with the signals? It is still a rule that the airline imposes to why can't people just follow it. No one is that important that they can't turn their phone off before takeoff and wait until they land to turn it back on. If people have a problem with that then they should find another way to travel
LuchDec 20th 2007 4:28PM
this kid is just another wannabe celebrity asshole who thinks he is better than everyone. You arent famous just because your parents are. Just like Kim Kardashian, shes only famouse because shes a slut and has a sex tape
scuba steveDec 20th 2007 4:31PM
actually they don't have reasons for keeping the cell phones off. They have recently found that electronic devices do NOT interfere with the computers in the planes durning takeoffs/landings. Otherwise we would have planes crashing all the time since so many of us leave on our mp3 players. The only reason cell phone use is still banned on flights is because the FAA decided everybody on their cell phones would be too annoying. Plus the planes couldn't charge you 20 bucks an hour for their phones. I hope he sues the airline, they have been getting away with way too much lately. Like when southwest kicked that girl off for dress code. Ever hear of the customer is always right??

@Luch - "To the poster "Nicole", you are an idiot."
Thanks... if it helps your self esteem to call people idiots when they point out facts, I'm glad to be of service.
I never said anything about him not having to turn it off, or it not being a rule... my post was directed at those people who like to perpetuate the misconception that cell phones pose a danger to the safety of aircraft.
scuba steveDec 20th 2007 4:36PM
...and furthermore, nicole is not an idiot. Luch has problems thinking for himself apparently. I'll bet luch is the type who pulls up to a stoplight with a broken sensor and gets stuck there all night because running it would be breaking the law. There is a word for people like you Luch, and that is SHEEP. You may find it comforting to have a totalitarian state decide what you should do but some of us our here still like to think for ourselves. If you break a stupid law, you are doing what we should all be doing, lest we be enslaved by mindless suits making rules just to make rules.

The reason why phones are banned because they tend to have GPS and if you knew the GPS info./signal you could shoot a missle off and have it follow the signal.

To Nicole - You are not an idiot because what you say is true about cell radio frequencies not interfering with communications on planes. However, the risk is that any device that emits electromagnetic impulses may interfere with navigational instruments. EMI interference has been blamed for one helicopter crash that I know about.
