Josh Duhamel's character in Transformers laughs in the face of danger. Josh Duhamel, the actor, reportedly laughs in the face of flight attendants trying to be polite.

The actor's official statement is that he's "sorry" after causing a disturbance on a flight from New York to Lexington, Ky., when he refused to turn of his BlackBerry and ended up being escorted off the plane before it took off from JFK International Airport.

A rep for Duhamel tells E! News that the Life as We Know It heartthrob was texting someone about their flight being delayed.

And if you believe the eyewitnesses, he must have been very perturbed.

TMZ reported today that a fellow passenger said Duhamel was "very rude" to an attendant when she asked him—three separate times—to turn off his phone, ultimately laughing in her face.

The attendant then called for backup and the plane, which was already on the runway, drove back to the gate, where two officers escorted Duhamel off the plane.

According to another witness, Fergie's lesser half (yesterday, at least) was watching the Miami Heat-Cleveland Cavaliers game in an airport bar before boarding the flight. Maybe he was just super bummed about LeBron embarrassing his former team.
