Christian Bale -- More Shocking Than the Arrest

So you're the star of one of the biggest movies ever. It's pulling in hundreds of millions of dollars. And you fly from the Tokyo premiere back home to LAX -- COMMERCIAL!

Not only did Bale fly with the commoners, he had to push his own luggage cart with an incredibly heavy trunk, forcing him to move at a snail's pace, rendering him helpless in front of the pappers.

Oh the humanity.

32. This is a great sight to see-instead of being on a private jet he's flying the way average folks do.....way to go Christian-kudos to you,sir. You got to love it when stars do things like ordinary folks and not like a bunch of 'holier than thou art' snobs as is the custom for stars.

33. That's great... it's good to know that there are still celeb's out there who are down to earth and aren't completely overcome by their fame.

34. This movie will do wonders for Christian Bale,despite the hype about Heath Ledger. In a lot of these type of movies,the villian is the scene stealer. Look what Jack Nicholson did for the original Batman movie.

35. He's entitled to his privacy by not defacing his family for their embarassing temper tantrum. Obviously the boy has received some notoriaty that mum & sis are jealous of & in a fit of drunken rage, they have presented their immaturity. Fame, going to the head.

36. Most people, "stars" included, fly commercial. Get a grip.

37. This is very typical of Bale and his family. I worked with him way back on one of his earliest films and his father refused first class tickets offered by the studio for the Bale clan. He claimed it was a waste of money. When the execs insisted, he threatened to sell them and give the money to charity. Good going Christian, you're staying true to your roots!

38. OMG! Stop the press!! Mr. Bale flew commercial, and even pushed his own luggage?! LOL, TMZ must be having a very slow newsday to say this is more shocking than being arrested... Wonder what they will say tonight on TV... I guess someone will stand up and say, "Yo, check this out... We got Christian Bale pushing his own luggage through LAX and we found out he even flew commercial..." Then some retarded comment from the Pap who got the film. And a guy writes Mr. Bales name down on the clear board laughing.

You guys need to hire reporters (regular off the street people are the best interviewers) and not just money hungry arrogant photogs who have no lick of sense when it comes to speaking to someone.

Also, the man is a great actor who does not have an enflated ego like many other famous people. He prefers to have as much of a private life as he can and as he can give his family. Speculating anything about anyone is an assumption... When you assume you make an ass out of you and not me.

41. Oh man! give 'em a break!!! what is sooo wrong about flying commercial? or pushing your own luggage? He should, it's HIS!!
I don't get it, if celebs try to live a normal life (i.e. pushing luggage carts & flying commercial) pappers makes a huge deal out of it... if they spend $250,000 for a shoe,a bag or a jacket,still this happens.... If Bale pushed his mother-in-law,now thats a good topic... but pushing a luggage???? come on.... lol

44. So he's the first famous person that's actually a normal person and believes in doing things for himself and feels he shouldn't recieve special treatment because of wealth or fame. What's wrong with that? Sounds like a normal guy trying to catch a flght to me.

45. Why is the fact that Bale flew on a commercial flight "breaking news"? Only an Oprah, or a Bill Gates or perhaps Travolta (who owns his own plane) could afford to fly in from Tokyo, of all places, on a private jet. Do you know what it would cost to charter a private plane from Tokyo to LA? No way would Bale have that kind of money.
