Normally, it takes Oscar winners at least a few months or years to land in big trouble, but Marion Cotillard could set a new record thanks to some bizarre comments she made last year that are now getting close scrutiny.

2008 Oscars Winners Cotillard  Highlights

Cotillard believes the U.S. government may have fabricated the 9/11
attacks because the World Trade Center towers were outdated
"money-sucker" buildings needing major renovation.

Wait! She embraces even more conspiracy theories — one of them truly
out of this world. Cotillard says Uncle Sam may have faked that whole
Apollo 11 bit back in 1969.

"Did a man really walk on the moon?" she asked on a French TV
program last year. "I saw plenty of documentaries on it, and I really
wondered. And in any case I don't believe all they tell me, that's for
sure."

She made the comments a year ago on French TV, but they're suddenly
popping up all over the Internet, including Drudge Report, which links
to this article in the London Daily Mail.

Cotillard is well known for believing in the fantastic. In her Oscar
acceptance speech she said that her best-actress victory was proof
"there is some angels" in Los Angeles.
