Natasha Lyonne Responds After Allegedly Being Escorted Off Flight
Natasha Lyonne made it to her final destination.
Two days after the Orange is the New Black alum was allegedly removed from a red-eye flight from Los Angeles to New York City, she made her first public appearance since the incident in the Big Apple.
Indeed, Natasha—who hosted Saturday Night Live in 2022—was all smiles as she stepped out for the April 9 premiere of Lorne, which honors series creator Lorne Michaels. For the occasion, she arrived in a black form-fitting midi dress over a white button-up shirt. She completed the look with black boots and her red locks in her signature waves.
And it was an evening to remember as the 47-year-old stood alongside friend Hamer Morgenstern on the carpet. Later, she posed with Seth Meyers and Saturday Night Live star Sarah Sherman at the documentary's after-party.
After the premiere, she praised the film on X, writing, "Beautiful documentary on Lorne by Morgan Neville. Laughed a whole lot."
Natasha had attended the season three premiere of Euphoria in Los Angeles on April 7 before reportedly boarding a Delta flight and failing to follow the flight attendants' instructions, according to Page Six.
When the crew noticed the actress was dozing off behind her sunglasses and didn't fasten her seatbelt, she was allegedly escorted off the aircraft, per the outlet.
For Natasha's part, she addressed her travel hiccup on X, which she said led to her missing an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show.

"My heart is with all the unpaid TSA agents at our airports," she wrote on April 9. "Sure was looking forward to speaking honestly with @DrewBarrymore yesterday but guess wasn't in the cards."
Although she didn't directly respond to the outlet's allegations, she concluded her response, "Who owns page six/New York Post now again?"
But it seems Natasha is taking the experience in stride. When Page Six shared the article to X, alleging that Natasha was looking "out of it" after the Euphoria premiere, she subtweeted the post with a nerd emoji, a banana emoji and an ice cube.
E! News had reached out to reps Natasha and Delta for comment but did not hear back.
