JENNIFER CONNELLY

The actress has long been terrified of flying - because something bad always seems to happen when she travels on planes.

And her fears reached new heights when her son's innocent mistake launched a police investigation at the airport.

She says, "We were coming back from London - it had been Halloween. My son, Kai, was worried about the Halloween candy he had in his bag...

"We go through security, he puts his bag through and the alarm goes off. the lights go off, officers start coming, everybody's pointing at us whispering.

"The woman says... 'There's a gun in your bag.' My son goes, 'Oh, no! It's my toy gun for my costume.'

"I said (to him), 'You're telling me you've got a mini Butterfinger, but you don't tell me you've got a gun in your bag?'"
