Alec Baldwin was kicked off an American Airlines flight in Los Angeles yesterday, apparently after he refused to stop playing Words With Friends on his phone.
“Flight attendant on American reamed me out 4 playing WORDS W FRIENDS while we sat at the gate, not moving. #nowonderamericaairisbankrupt,” Baldwin tweeted.
Several passengers tweeted about the incident, including this one from Michael J. Wolfe: “On an AA flight at LAX. Alec Baldwin removed from the plane We had to go back to the gate. “Terrible that everyone had to wait.”
Baldwin’s rep told People magazine, “Alec was asked to leave the flight for playing Words with Friends while parked the gate. He loves WWF so much that he was willing to leave a plane for it, but he has already boarded another AA flight.”
