Recently, an incident involving Hollywood actress Natasha Lyonne has fans and outlets talking. The situation began when she appeared on the red carpet at the premiere of “Euphoria” Season 3. Her look at the event immediately had everyone staring, as she wore a sheer top, beige corset bottoms, and lace stockings that turned heads.
Just a few hours after the red carpet appearance, Natasha headed to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) to catch a flight to New York. Sources say she did not change out of her red carpet outfit before boarding the plane and went straight to her first-class seat. Soon after taking her seat, she fell into a deep sleep.
Flight attendants made several attempts to wake her and asked her to close her laptop and fasten her seatbelt, but she reportedly did not respond. She was wearing sunglasses and appeared to be completely asleep. According to onlookers, when attendants tried to wake her, removed her laptop, and asked whether she needed medical assistance, she seemed disoriented and asked, “Where are we?”
Given the situation, the flight attendants eventually informed her that the plane would not depart until she got off. She then reportedly agreed to leave the aircraft and was escorted off the flight.
The whole situation also affected her professional schedule. She was scheduled to appear on The Drew Barrymore Show on Wednesday morning but was unable to attend. Later, she shared a post on X, saying her heart was with the unpaid TSA agents working at airports. She also mentioned that she had been looking forward to having an honest conversation with Drew Barrymore, but it did not happen.
Natasha has previously been open about her struggles with addiction. The Orange Is the New Black star had been sober for nearly a decade before revealing earlier this year that she had relapsed, although that post has since been deleted.
In March, she reassured her followers again, stating that she was doing better and slowly finding her footing again. She thanked the recovery community and her fans for showing up for her through all of it. She also shared that she hopes to keep her journey somewhat private but looks forward to sharing her experiences, strength, and hope when the time feels right.
