British actor Michael Caine was once stopped and searched at an airport in Texas, under the suspicion of being a terrorist.
Caine reveals for GQ Magazine that he was traveling with no luggage and under his real name Maurice Mickelwhite.
“I was stopped in Texas once. My wife had gone home the day before with all the luggage. I asked, ‘What profile do I have that makes me a terrorist?’ He said, ‘You have no luggage. You’re a foreigner. You’re in first class. And you’re the last to board. That is the profile of all the 9/11 fliers,” he told the magazine.
We bet that he now travels under his better known name Michael Caine and that he also has his Oscar statuette in his hand luggage…just in case!
