Comedian and actor Natasha Lyonne attempted to clear up a report alleging she was escorted off a flight, saying instead that she was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. <\/p>\n
\u201cThanks for the great reporting, [E News],\u201d the \u201cPoker Face\u201d star wrote Friday on X<\/a>. \u201cIndeed, I took a Lunesta once seated, to ensure some shut eye on the Delta One red eye flight to NYC. Boarded seamlessly with just a backpack and sneakers, eager for a nap. Plan was to be bushy tailed & beauty rested, as I was meant to head straight to glam for a slot with our beloved [Drew Barrymore], upon landing. Was looking forward to seeing Drew & an in depth convo, but I guess ICE had other plans & I was detained instead. Sign of the times, I guess.\u201d<\/p>\n Lyonne linked to an E News article<\/a> that cited Page Six reporting<\/a> that she was escorted off the Tuesday Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York after she failed to follow flight attendants\u2019 instructions. The star had just come from the season 3 \u201cEuphoria\u201d premiere in Los Angeles when she boarded the flight, according to Page Six. Flight attendants noticed Lyonne, who was wearing sunglasses, was dozing off and wouldn\u2019t fasten her seatbelt. <\/p>\n Neither Lyonne\u2019s reps or ICE immediately responded to a request for comment. Delta Airlines told HuffPost there was no additional information.<\/p>\n She\u2019s been open about past substance issues. In 2001, she was arrested for a DUI, and then a few years later, arrested again for threatening someone\u2019s dog. <\/p>\n
