Lindsay Lohan to Delta Airlines: I don't do economy.

Lindsaylohan Lindsay Lohan doesn’t want to fly -- or die -- in economy class. The actress made a big stink about her seat on a Delta flight leaving from Tampa, Fla., Saturday morning. Seems the airline was unable to find her a first-class seat on the overbooked flight. An insider tells Pop Tarts that passengers were very amused by Lindsay's expert self-entitlement act, storming around and telling her traveling buddy (not Samantha Ronson), "You'd better come and visit me back there in case I die." But fortunately, poor LiLo didn't have to lower her standards to sitting in the dreaded economy section with all the poor people.

I can't stand whiny Hollywood (I am better than you are) actors, but I do have a question. Did she buy a first class ticket only to get bounced? Or did she just show up and demand a first class ticket?

If it was the first, then I would have been pi**ed also. There is nothing worse than an overbooked flight. I understand the economics behind it, but if I prebook a flight (usually months in advance) I should not be expected to either give up my seat, or be bumped all together. If she had pre booked a first class seat, she should get it.

I can't really blame her for not wanting sit in economy class, I don't like it much myself having memories when it was actually pleasant to fly in economy class back in the 1950s and 1960s. Now with the extreme overbooking and cramming of passengers into ever shrinking passenger space(due to seats being crammed into every available inch) economy class really does suck. OTH, I don't think she should feel like she is sentenced to death simply because she has to ride with us poor people(yep, when I fly, and I try not to anymore than possible, it is economy for me!).

While LL looks bad raising hell about this I see it as one more proof that airlines do not think of their passengers well being. Did she, or did she not, pay for first class. If she paid for first class she should get first class. Over booking seats is a common practice and nearly cost me a job once when I was bumped from a plane because of over booking. IMO, there is no excuse for that BS, they know how many seats they have and if you pay for a seat you should sure as hell get one. Money refunded does not always make up for the hassle of not making your flight or for giving up the comfort of first class to ride smashed in between two overweight people who both forgot to shower over the last several weeks, and your knees jammed up about the level of your ears. Exaggeration? Maybe, but not much.

While I don't admire the lack of grace shown by Ms Lohan, I blame the frickin, crappily run airlines more than I do her.

Lindsay’s boobs are real. When she was younger she almost looked as if she would fall over on her face. Someone told me she had a breast reduction, and in one movie at least(the love bug I believe) they had to reduce them by computer work, because they looked so huge. Whatever else she is, she has real boobs. As for the guy talking about real ones not jiggling, that is BS, the real ones jiggle, the fake ones just kind of sway and have a hard look to them, IMO.
