Hollywood actress Tracee Ellis Ross has found herself at the centre of a social media storm after passengers accused her of engaging in "disgusting" behaviour during a recent flight. Eyewitnesses claim the star's antics left fellow travellers appalled, sparking a heated debate about celebrity entitlement and basic flight etiquette.
Mid-Flight Drama Unfolds
According to multiple reports, the incident occurred as Ross was travelling from Los Angeles to New York. Fellow passengers describe being shocked when the actress allegedly removed her shoes and began what appeared to be an impromptu foot care routine in her premium cabin seat.
Passengers React
"It was absolutely revolting," one anonymous traveller told reporters. "There she was, filing her nails and applying cream right there in the cabin. The smell was overwhelming, and she showed zero consideration for those around her."
Other witnesses claim Ross appeared completely unfazed by the disapproving glances from fellow passengers, continuing her routine for an extended period before finally stopping.
Social Media Backlash
The incident quickly went viral after several passengers posted about their experience online. Twitter users were particularly scathing, with many questioning why celebrities seem to think normal rules don't apply to them.
- "Basic manners cost nothing – even if you're famous" tweeted one user
- "Imagine paying thousands for a premium seat only to sit next to this" wrote another
- "This is why I always pack nose plugs when I fly" joked a third
A History of Controversy
This isn't the first time Ross has found herself in hot water over her behaviour. The actress, daughter of music legend Diana Ross, has previously been criticised for what some describe as diva-like tendencies.
Industry insiders suggest this latest incident could damage her carefully cultivated public image, particularly as it comes during what should be a career high point following her successful TV projects.
Airline Response
While the airline involved has declined to comment on specific passenger behaviour, they reiterated their commitment to ensuring all travellers enjoy a comfortable flight experience. "We expect all passengers to be considerate of their fellow travellers," a spokesperson stated.
As for Ross, her representatives have yet to respond to requests for comment about the inflight incident that's got everyone talking.
