The former French actor Gerard Depardieu decided to avoid high taxes in France in an unusual way. He became the citizen of Russia! Yesterday he came to a Russian city Saransk where he was dancing on the stage of the Opera and Ballet Theatre in a national Russian shirt. He got a new passport right from the hands of the Russian president.
Welcome to Russia, Mr. Depardieu!
Nothing matter. It`s easy to become russian with so typical slavic appearance like monsieur Depardieu
We are very happy to give him to you, don’t forget to take care about drunk driving.
Yes, a white French with money leaves and in Marseille 100 people from Africa arrive 🙂
French are all not like this rich guy!
thank you to take it so quickly! and take care of you in first!!
Yes, some “French” have paid considerably less taxes than he did and lived off welfare and taxpayers money in their “multicultural” suburbs.
Mathieu, really that will not change much : even without alcohol, Russian people drive like if they were drank 😀
OD1N : what do you mean with “slavic appearance” ? Rosacea ? 😀
Yes and I am not going to tell you how the French drive or even park…
Asterix: Panoramix! Where is Panoramix?!! Help! Obelix lost his mind!!!
You would think that for such an occasion he would shave closer and brush his teeth.
On vous le laisse sans poblème.
Il nous manque juste un vrai gouvernement de gauche pour que ce soit bien complet.
Car là, lui et d’autre, auraient beau deserter, le fisc les retrouverait etc. (taxation différentiel)
Only if the IRS isn’t so stubborn.
Guess he started training to be Russian years ago by gaining weight and having dirty fingernails.
Ugly SOB and minor Hollywood character actor.
Congrats Russia. You underbid France for a B-lister.
In Russia, women who dare to protest against Putin’s dynasty get thrown to prison. Then there’s this guy who embraces Putin just to protest some taxes. I’m not French but I think he should appreciate the French liberty more than that.
The French prime minister made a mistake insulting him. French people take insults quite seriously. At least this is a bit more civilized way to resolve it, instead of the traditional sword duel.
Yes, maybe Pussy Riot should have staged their “performance” in a French mosque…then they would be glad to end up in a Russian prison camp.
STFU and GTFO.
The Peugeot GTFO? What´s this? The new french supercar 🙂 ?
With all the stuff I see on English Russia he will fit right in….maybe he will try 400ft Radio Antenna Parcour…and slip…
1st Prize for the Best Comment!
Russia – rich people paradise
No, it is really everywhere like this. The world is the rich man´s paradise and is has been ever since.
Why are they giving him cats in the second picture?
Lunch.
The mayor of Saransk gave him an apartment, and there is a tradition: when moving to a new house, you should bring there a pet. So, i believe thats why these kittens for.
Mathieu,if taxation is not eniough for your ass,you’ll get married with “Flanby president” soon in our sad country.
Good luck with him. Don’t you also want Brigitte Bardot or Mireille Mathieu ? We will be very happy to hand them to Russia
We want to get Brigitte Bardot, Mireille Mathieu or anybody else (may be Alizee or Mylène Farmer 🙂 in exchange for Putin and his criminal gang.
Hahaha 😀
Tout a fait poupou, on peut en filer encore pas mal d’autres si vous voulez.
Ps: vous pouvez réouvrir des goulag pour eux d’ailleurs si vous voulez aussi, ca leur fera les pieds.
How many babushkas does it take to wrap a sash around Gerard Depardieu?
In their defense, it’s a long sash and a long walk…
Where do I sign up? Modern Russia is more free, less socialist, classier, better-led, and more respectful of its traditions and religious heritage than America these days. I’d accept Russian citizenship in a heartbeat if it was offered to me.
Really? In what way?
Is that why Russia has negative population growth?
I really must be the land of opportunity.
Better a negative population growth than being the waste dump of the middle east and africa! BTW Russian population is back on growing since 2009! In many ways it is way better for young and hard working people to live there than to live in France.
when you become russian, do your teeth turn yellow?
Putin probably gave him a free apartment in Ukrainsk – It’s what he deserves.
If in my country they wanted to tax me at 75% I would get Russian citizenship too. 13% flat tax is not bad at all.
Comme en Hongrie hein?
Ultra libéralisme + fascisme => neo fascisme.
Yeah, c’est vraiment super…
Mais rien de nouveau puisque en temps de crise la grande bourgeoisie a toujours appellée le fascisme a la rescousse.
Francois Hollande? Is that You?
This old sponge bob is full of wine, He sucks well this month !! Only Belgian or Russian!
Maybe more people will leave Europe for Russia if Europe continues this path of extorting massive taxes out of its working people in favor of lazy migrants.
Vous avez tout compris, cher ami…
No English? Maybe Arabic? Turkish? No?
oh tiger ?? Bad boy. 🙁
They’ve only given him an internal passport – how will he get out? 🙂
Same way he got in the first place – using his french passport (..which he told he gave away before the trip). Or does Russia have a habit of letting ‘famous’ people come and go without a valid passport?
France is going through some social unrest. Depardieu is the tip of the iceberg because it is symbolic (moving to evil empire Russia). There will be big anti-gay adoption protests on 13th January in France btw.
I´d rather live in Russian than france. The sh*t place (france) full of africans, muslims and where you´re obliged to pay high taxes to feed terrorists wannabes
Pends toi.
France is already lost. The European welfare states are collapsing under the weight of alimenting migrants from islamic and african countries. The costs are enormous but most politicians do not have the guts to tell the public about the true cost of immigration for the sake of multiculturalism. Depardieu is right! If the 75% would go to his own people, maybe he would pay it. But the money goes to the banks to save the Euro and to the migrants to keep them calm. The normal French/German/European works his ass off to pay for this show. More people should leave and then they will see who works and pays for everything, surely not them!
how to become a Russian citizen?
Nan pas sur l’un de mes sites préférés ! J’entends ça toute la journée au info depuis une semaine ! arf this guy drink a lot more since his son died, I think not sure, bye bye Obélix
France is full of Vichy collaborators.
Darwin award
But he’s wearing a Ukrainian national clothing!
