Beyonce Flies Off the Handle

Sandra Rose November 10, 2008

Beyonce threw a hissy fit in London over the weekend when a travel agency tried to book her on a jet that was used to fly the likes of Frank Sinatra, Jennifer Lopez and Elton John around the world.

But Beyonce passed on that old thing because the refurbished jet was simply not good enough for her Highness.

She grounded offers of the jet from Liverpool EMA’s to the World Music Awards in Monaco, insisting she was given a brand new $60 million aircraft instead.

Our Mile High spy says: “We tried to convince Beyonce it was newly refurbished and told her Ol’ Blue Eyes, Elton and J.Lo had used it, but she suggested they got one of the newer fleet.

“She also wanted 14 seats, including two for herself. And staff were told to give her whatever she wanted – including an Xbox, PSP, Jacuzzi and a pizza.”

Well, even a diva’s gotta eat some time! (Source)

Thanks to loyal reader Christine for the tip!

I don’t blame her, maybe she didn’t feel like it was safe.

Most flight accidents happen on those private jets, so I would be concerned if you tried to put me on a plane that has been around for a long time also.

I don’t blame her…I don’t liek Jets anyways – you canfeel tooooooooo much. Put me on a Big Body plane anyday! Hey, I though Jay was big ballin… doesn’t he own his own jet? I could swear I saw one in a video of his with his name onit and everything *snicker*? Why wouldn’t he let his beloved wife borrow it – cause I know it’s top notch!

I think I was watching one of Diddy’s shows and his wanna be assistants had to load a plane, jet whatever it was. I could not believe all the luggage they squeezed on this little plane. I would not have flown on it. It was over loaded. (I am sure the Jet did not take off) Just one of Diddy’s over exagerated moments.
For Bey not to ride in the Jet, maybe she had a intution about something.

i know she was performing, but that’s a serious mug on her face…

i guess if she has the money to get whatever she wants then there it is.

This cannot be true…sounds odd.
whyohwhy

That’s the face of a true performer, Sasha who?

Y’all know she nailed this performance…

The story sounds crazy..but what would have you done in the same situation?

@readtheblog

they rent those jets out, but no one really owns there own jets, Diddy, Jay, Ludcris & other rappers.

And I dont blame Beyonce for getting another jet, those jet rides you can feel everything I do mean everything so I too would have been no give me another jet. Thats not beinga diva thats being safely conscious

Ummm .. she got the Dough .. to rent a jet .. hell .. I’ve neer flown First Class .. so I ain’t mad AT HER !!

Things have changed – I have been on a first class flight with her and a HUUUUGE bodyguard on American Airlines from NYC to Dallas… He was so big he skimmed the security gate you walk through (top and sides). She jumped the line and she was a row ahead of me. I was surprised she flew commercial. I will say her skin is flawless.
browni007

She’s a clown to kick a fuss over a flight – Buy your own jet or rent like Diddy!!!!

Remember Aaliyah!…Maybe she was being precautious!

After Aaliyah died in that crash can you blame her. I wouldn’t buy a refurbished item let alone fly in a refurbished jet. & I don’t see the big deal of wanting 14 seats if she is travelling with a team.
keely107

I dont blame her either, and just guessing the money she spent a pizza and video game was truly not too much to ask.
precious1

Can you say Aaliyah! I wouldn’t have trusted my life on a “refurbished” jet! I don’t know who would…next!

attention whore

MissGauzzz

@ckarinwhite,
I was thinking the samething(there is no value of one’s life).

If this is true, I don’t blame her. If she has the $$$$ to not be on anything refurbished why not? I don’t care who was on it previously ….
terika83

I don’t blame her for wanting a new plane after Aaliyah, Travis, and DJ AM….now all of the other stuff was kind of diva-ish but who knows what other celebs request when flying…
MUNCHOSGIRL

THE MIRROR IS A TABLOID NEWSPAPER JUST LIKE THE NATIONAL INQUIRER. DON’T BELIEVE IT. A TRAVEL AGENCY TRIED TO BOOK HER? I AM SURE COUSIN ANGIE DID NOT SET UP NOTHING WITH NO REFURBISHED JET.
phineinphilly

a refurbished plan did not kill aaliyah. engine failure along with it being overcrowded and overweight was the contributing factors.

as for bey, if she feels she needs a better plane that’s her prerogative. but to throw a hissy fit about it shows a lack of class. things can get accomplished without showing your ass.
BK2ATLMAN

She probably didn’t even throw a fit, just had her assistant request a new plane… Hell most people don’t own their own planes and not just rappers, business men, millionaires. Most own a percentage of the plane since they don’t use it everyday. Hell Donald Trump owns a percentage of a couple of private planes.

Refurbished my a$$. I don’t blame her for requesting a newer plane. Old Blue Eyes? He died a while ago and his career was VERY long. Exactly how old was this plane? Sorry, but I can’t hate on B for this one.
Candi Apple

I wouldn’t get on a refurbished jet… Bey I dont blame you.

Sandra… Are you happy?… What did you want out of life that you did not get?… Do you have a girlfriend or boyfriend?…. Do you have friends?… Where is your family?.. I need for you to talk to someone and release some of those painful emotions you keep spewing out to your reading audiance (sp). I just want you to get better…. Dang Who Hurt You?
SMALONE

I WOULDN’T WANT TO GET ON A CRAPPY PLANE LIKE THAT ANYWAY WILL ALL MY LUGGAGE.I’M GLAD SHE SPEAKS UP FOR HER SELF.GO BEY!!

I know this may sound like an odd comparison but Beyonce and Sarah Palin. Beyonce seems like she can be a mean chick behind the scene if things do not go her way. And Sarah Palin, that’s all you see on the news today, is about the fits she threw at her staff if they didn’t make her “look good” in interviews on TV etc. And now Beyonce has a photo shoot out and she is wearing those librarian glasses. Very Sarah Palin! Kinda Scary! Both want to appear to be the crowd favorite in pubic but behind the scences is total maddness!
