REPORT: Sean Penn Causes Stir At White House Dinner
Posted on Mon May 2, 2011 02:55 PM PDT
Sean Penn, one of Hollywood's original bad boys, caused problems at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner over the weekend, the New York Post reports.
Penn supposedly raised eyebrows when he refused to put his hand over his heart for "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Then Penn and girlfriend Scarlett Johansson got too close for comfort at the formal dinner. A witness told the Post:
- "She plopped down in his lap, and they were kissing."
Sources also said that the two left the room for an hour, after which Penn came back to their table looking disheveled.
The pair held hands as they left an afterparty in early morning hours.
See who else was at the dinner to witness the canoodling after the jump!
Saturday Night Live's Seth Meyers hosted the annual dinner which, as tradition demands, was quite the snarky evening. One of Meyers' zingers, for example: "Jon Hamm looks the way every Republican thinks they look," he said. "Zach Galifianakis is also here. Zack Galifianakis looks the way every Republican thinks every Democrat looks."
Reportedly on the star-studded guest list were David Arquette, Courteney Cox, Rick Fox, Eliza Dushku, Amber Riley, Chace Crawford, Bridget Moynahan, Mekhi Phifer, Patricia Arquette, Cheryl Hines, Alyssa Milano, Newt Gingrich, Felicity Huffman, Omar Epps, Jason Biggs, Kate Hudson, Bristol Palin, Mindy Kaling, Steven Tyler, Chris Colfer, Shaun White, Brooke Burke, Steve Buscemi, director Tom Hooper, Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Erin Andrews, Jane Lynch, Mira Sorvino, Anna Paquin, Stephen Moyer, Colin Powell, Jason Sudeikis, Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenberg, Jon Hamm, Zach Galifianakis, the Coen brothers, Taylor Kitsch, Ian Somerhalder, Nina Dobrev, Mike Farah, Chris Dodd, Mila Kunis, Lady Antebellum, Paul Abdul, Rashida Jones, America Ferrera, Samantha Ronson.

DISRESPECTFUL PIGS! I GUESS IF IT WERE CHAVEZ'S NATIONAL ANTHEM THE @SSHOLE WOULD STAND FOR IT AND PLEDGE F-CKING ALLEGIANCE TO IT AS WELL?
This ugly old freak doesn't have the balls to leave America. He's just a punk. Always has been, always will be.
Obama probably told Sean it was ok to disrespect America.
sean penn is a freakin ugly pig. he should never work in this country and in fact he should leave. creep
Sean should go live with his butt buddy Chavez. I'm sure Chavez will treat this ugly old man well.
NO EFFIN' CLASS WHATSOEVER. Plz go back to Haiti or wherever. AND STAY THERE!
You can't make someone put their hand over their heart. "Land of the free" and all that.
Obama didn't invite penn, a newpaper did.
All the stars aren't invited by Obama but by different newpapers, magazines and news organization.
Dude has probably had more di*k than hot meals.
Just goes to show that Samantha Ronson moves in higher circles than you know who.
Lindsay and her trash family will never make it into the White House.
What a nasty little whore Scarlett is turning into. Why don't they just start rubbing their pee-pees together while attending dinner with the president.
2 rutting pigs in the White House.
No respect for their surroundings.
Whaaaat? Is the article implying that Penn and Johansen went off and sneaked sex somewhere while at a state dinner?
Un-freaking-believable.
08:08 so has she
Even sitting in his lap and kissing is disrespectful when you are a guest at a presidential dinner. Why don't they go and get a room at a cheap motel instead.
It is impossible to fall out of love. Love is such a powerful emotion, that once it envelops you it does not depart. True love is eternal. If you think that you were once in love, but fell out of it, then it wasn't love you were in. There are no 'exit' signs in love, there is only an 'on' ramp. (( B_l_a_c_k_w_h_i_t_e_C_u_p_i_d. c_0_m )) Lots of my friends found their lovers through the se'rvice. You may have a try... ;)
Disgusting, classless morons. I will never EVER see a movie of his again.
This guy is so far from American, it's crazy. He has no business at an event like this.
But does he smuggle narcotics in his cavities like Paris Hilton does cause that's real class.
Funny, all those names are in my contacts book.
x17 you are way behind the news...pics of them holding hands are all over UK newspaper, just google it.
Talk about immature actions! He is one uglya#$ dude and she just needs to grow up. Guess they deserve each other.
Jackass Marxist.... Run Scarlett run, this man is as F**ked up as Charlie Sheen
They were invited as guests by the Washington Daily Worker.
pssst: HE HAD THE NERVES TO ASK FOR A DILDO FOR HIS OWN USE!!
That is so disgraceful and disrespectful. I hope they are ashamed ot themselves (but they're not).
low life
This troll loves making money in America though doesn't he? Both are trash
He has made his choices. He and many others who appear to have great wealth and power have surrendered themselves to this life and are to be pitied. We do not have to follow.
hehehe I bet he has old man saggy balls and grey pubes. Looks like dustin hoffmans brother in this pic, huge nose...huge! she went from Ryan Reynolds to Sean big nose saggy balls Penn
