That's the explanation her attorney made in court today about how she got crosswise with a flight attendant in an onboard dustup about a stain on her first-class seat.
It's bound to be far better theater than any Joel Osteen preachfest in his Lakewood Church. The aggrieved flight attendant wants a mere 10 percent of the high-octane church lady's net worth. If she wins, that'll have flight attendants all over the skies picking fights with cranky first-class celebs.

From an article in the
Houston Chronicle, linked in the above:
Maria Johnson, another flight attendant on the plane, spent nearly all of her three hours on the witness stand describing how Victoria Osteen demanded special attention to clean up a small spill. When she didn't get her way, Victoria Osteen became verbally and physically abusive to both flight attendants, eventually grabbing Brown by the shoulders and pushing her out of the way in an attempt to get into the cockpit, Johnson testified. But just before her testimony concluded, Johnson suggested race might have played a part in the incident because of remarks Victoria Osteen made about only wanting to deal with Johnson, who is white, and not with either Brown or a third flight attendant on the plane, who are black.

It would appear that Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Osteen both have “control” issues. In addition, Mrs. Brown also appears to have race issues.

You’d think that would be a a detriment to her husband’s “church” but I’m pretty sure attendance will stay up and the contributions to her husband’s “church” will remain steady, if not increase. *SIGH*

I avoid travel airline travel as much as possible.
You are their virtual prisoner and they can treat you as they please.
Or not please.
Having sat on a tarmac once for 6 hours I can tell you the crew was lucky that there wasn't a mutiny. Their indifference/arrogance was mind boggling.

Ha ha ha.
And lack of common sense to come up with a idea like hey lets deal with the Stain by covering it with a blanket or some other material.

It's bound to be far better theater than any Joel Osteen preachfest in his Lakewood Church. It would be even better entertainment to put 'em in a boxing ring and let 'em duke it out. Nothing like a good cat fight. And sell tickets to cover the expenses.
