Ironically, he used to be on one of those "after-school special" shows in Canada. Go figure. So my biting, mocking side is chuckling a little.

'Twilight' actor sentenced in urinating incident

"Twilight" actor Bronson Pelletier pleaded no contest to charges of public intoxication, related to the December incident when he got allegedly liquored-up and urinated in the middle of a terminal at Los Angeles International Airport.

Maybe he couldn't find the men's room.

Nevertheless, a judge sentenced Pelletier to two years probation this week and was ordered to attend 52 Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, according to TMZ.

Pelletier previously denied letting loose at the airport ... until TMZ posted a video clearly showing him committing the deed.
