We look to our pop stars for bad behaviour because… well… in some cases, it’s all they have. We certainly don’t want to listen to all that stupid music they release. Music costs money and investment of time. Hearing that famous people have been dicks is free.
Especially badly behaved are rappers. God we love rappers. They have guns and drugs in their big cars. Some of them even get shot dead like Tupac.
However, stupid Dizzee Rascal is rather well-behaved. So well behaved that, when he was thrown off a British Airways flight, the passengers stuck up for him.
Dizzee, probably wishing he opened a who silo of whoop-ass on the BA staff, was accused of kicking off when he discovered his flight was delayed.
Rascal (his real name) and his fellow passengers were sat on a the plane and left waiting for more than an hour on the runway. Dizzee was supposed to be at a festival in Portugal. He didn’t make it.
Someone called John Godsland, stuck up for the rapper as well as dramatically adding that he will never fly BA again, told the Standard:
“We had been on the plane for about an hour, Dizzee had been asleep, and he woke up and there was a female member of cabin crew walking past and he said to her something along the lines of, ‘What’s going on? What are we still doing here? What’s happening?'”
Then, the passenger added that the flight attendant started “wagging her finger at him” before getting the captain to throw him off the flight into the waiting arms of the law.
Another passenger, this one called Gillian Beeby, tweeted:
“On a flight to Portugal and disgusted by BA’s treatment of a person who got thrown off due to a member of staff being rude. BA has just thrown Dizzee Rascal off flight to Portugal – appalling behaviour by BA staff who inflamed situation!”
There you have it. Airline workers can have rappers in a fight.
