You talkin to me?

Police in Eastern Romania were engaged in a routine roadside vehicle check when they pulled over - guess who? Robert de Niro.

However closer scrutiny revealed that the ‘Star’ had forged ID papers.

Flash car, designer suit and sunglasses aside, police say they smelled a rat when the ‘Celebrity’ spoke with a marked Central European accent.

“We guessed that Robert de Niro would not be driving alone around this remote part of the country”, said a police spokesperson. “And he just didn’t sound right.”

It was revealed later that the crook has been providing fake IDs to people from Modolva who want to work in Western Europe. I wonder what their IDs were? Dennis Hopper? Bela Lugosi? Maybe the Modolvans, or Modolvanians (where the heck is Modolva?) don’t get many movies.

If I were to get a false ID of this calibre, it would be my luck to pick up the papers for Phyllis Diller.
