Natasha Lyonne is addressing a bump in the road.
Two days after she was reportedly escorted off of a red eye flight meant to travel from Los Angeles to New York City, the Poker Face star spoke out on her travel issues.
“My heart is with all the unpaid TSA agents at our airports,” Natasha wrote on X April 9. “Sure was looking forward to speaking honestly with @DrewBarrymore yesterday but guess wasn’t in the cards.”
The Russian Doll actress attended the Los Angeles premiere of Euphoria season three April 7, hours before she reportedly boarded a Delta flight and failed to follow flight attendants’ instructions, according to Page Six.
After crew members allegedly noticed she was dozing off behind her sunglasses and failed to fasten her seatbelt, she was escorted off the plane, per the outlet.
While Natasha didn’t respond to the allegations directly, she called out the publication in her post, writing, “Who owns page six/New York Post now again?”
E! News has reached out to reps Natasha and Delta for comment but has not heard back.
Before her travel woes, the Russian Doll actress had recently given a positive life update after revealing in January that she had relapsed after nearly 10 years of being sober.

“Proud to report this kid is doing a whole lot better & back on her feet,” Natasha shared on X March 19. “Want to thank our recovery communities & the fans who stood by & were so supportive.”
She added, “Aiming to keep the journey somehow private, but look forward to sharing my experience, strength & hope as makes sense. My heart is with everyone ever going through it.”
Indeed, Natasha emphasized the collective experience of battling addiction shortly after announcing her relapse.
“Recovery is a lifelong process,” she wrote in a since-deleted post on X in January. “Anyone out there struggling, remember you're not alone."
