Natasha Lyonne has seemingly responded to reports she was escorted off a flight with a pointed message on X yesterday (9 April).
Writing shortly after the alleged incident, the actor said: “My heart is with all the unpaid TSA agents at our airports.” She added that she had been looking forward to a scheduled appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show that ultimately “wasn’t in the cards”.
The post came after reports claimed Lyonne was removed from a Delta flight while travelling from Los Angeles to New York City on Tuesday night (7 April), following her attendance at the LA premiere of Euphoria.
Page Six reported an eyewitness viewed her making a scene onboard the plane, and claimed she ignored requests to close her laptop and fasten her seatbelt for takeoff – ultimately leading to her being escorted off the plane.
According to the publication, the captain of the plane said: “We have a passenger who for whatever reason … wouldn’t follow some basic commands … We had a passenger who didn’t seem up to the task tonight so that’s why they were asked to be booked on another flight — I do apologise for the inconvenience, but we will get you to New York as quickly and as safely as possible.”
The incident has not been independently confirmed, and neither the airline nor Lyonne’s representatives have publicly commented on the situation.
Despite the reported disruption, Lyonne appeared unfazed publicly, attending the New York premiere of Lorne the following day.
