Now might be the moment to get a table at Tatiana — because everyone has been stranded in paradise by the Venezuela crisis.

Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy closed down airspace around the South American nation Saturday night amid the jaw-dropping operation to seize president Nicolás Maduro, meaning that the commercial flights and private jets that were meant to ferry movie stars, moguls and mega-millionaires back to reality after their New Year’s celebrations were grounded.

We’re told Queen Latifah, Mike Tyson, Ming Lee Simmons, Natalie Portman and party pacha Richie Akiva were among those beached in St. Barts and the surrounding luxury oases.

As Chelsea Handler noted in her monologue at the People’s Choice Awards, Leonardo DiCaprio missed the Palm Springs International Film Awards due to being stuck on St. Barts.

We’re told some celebs and other Jet Setters on St. Barts began taking boats to neighboring islands like Saint Martin and Anguilla, in hopes of flying out from the bigger island.

Stranded near the Equator in January?

[Huskrrrr]

Waaaah!

I was thinking they could try taking one of those high speed coke boats into Florida and see how far they get.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

So horrible. I’m in tears for them.

This article is very revealing at how easily celebs are willing to associate with world criminals.

It's not like they were watching the ball drop with Maduro...

[SmokingJoe]

How so?
Who cares about Chelsea Handler?

[webheart]

We have brought so many people from third world countries that now we actually have third world problems.

[webheart]

I want to know what night life guru are and can we get an example of who they are?

[No.6]

Ha. They’d probably be just fine provided they fly a flag and refrain from filling the boat with oil drums full of drugs.

So ... 50/50?
