Natasha Lyonne is speaking out after she was kicked off a Delta flight for exhibiting abnormal behavior.
The actress wrote on X Thursday, “My heart is with all the unpaid TSA agents at our airports.”
“Sure was looking forward to speaking honestly with @DrewBarrymore yesterday but guess wasn’t in the cards,” she added after missing her scheduled appearance on “The Drew Barrymore Show” Thursday.
She also gave Page Six a shoutout after we broke the news.
“Who owns page six/New York Post now again?”
Lyonne , 47, was seen being removed from a flight from LA to NYC just hours after appearing on the red carpet at the Season 3 premiere of HBO’s “Euphoria” Sunday.
On the flight, she seemed out of it in a first class seat, and when flight attendants asked her to close her laptop and fasten her seatbelt for takeoff, she didn’t respond.
According to an eyewitness, numerous flight attendants repeatedly tried to get the star to follow their commands, and she seemed to be dozing behind her sunglasses — even getting startled at one point and saying, “Ah! You scared me!”
Her laptop was eventually taken out of her hands and the plane taxied to the runway, but then later turned back to the gate.
A Delta staffer asked if she needed medical attention and told her she needed to get off the plane. Lyonne was overhead asking where they were, and she was told they were still in LA and that the plane wasn’t going anywhere until she got off of it.
She then calmly headed to the bathroom and emerged eating a bag of pretzels.
Lyonne eventually obediently got off the plane.
The captain told the crowded flight after the plane had been delayed a little over an hour, “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 apologize for the inconvenience, but we will get you to New York as quickly and as safely as possible.”
Lyonne turned heads at the “Euphoria” season 3 premiere, sporting a completely sheer top, bottoms that appeared to be an open corset, and black stockings.
In January, Lyonne — who openly battled drug and alcohol addictions in the mid-2000s — revealed that she relapsed after 10 years of sobriety.
Last month, she said she was “doing a whole lot better” and was “back on her feet.”
“Want to thank our recovery communities & the fans who stood by & were so supportive,” she wrote on X. “Aiming to keep the journey somehow private, but look forward to sharing my experience, strength & hope as makes sense. My heart is with everyone ever going through it.”
