Indian film star Shahrukh Khan was detained at Los Angeles airport by US immigration authorities.
I fully understand & respect security with the way the world is, but to be detained at US immigration every damn time really really sucks.

He was certainly miffed with the detention and tweeted about his displeasure.
It is universally acknowledged that immigration officials in USA have GayTendency & can not resist good looking male,,fate of #ShahRukhKhan

Of course this is not the first time he has had problems at an airport in the US.

In 2009 he was detained at New Jersey Airport as his name appeared in the no-fly list and he was held up for 2 hours in 2012 again.

His detention did not go down well with his fans but to many this gave ample opportunity poke fun at him.
