Britney's a Seat Snob

The pop princess threw a tad bit of a hissy fit on Friday, after boarding a United flight from Los Angeles to Miami. Minutes before the plane was scheduled to take off, Brit demanded she be let off. Apparently she finds non-leather airplane seats to be toxic.

"It was quite astonishing,” passenger Tony Sanchez told the News Of The World. “The doors had been closed for about ten minutes, everyone was strapped in and the plane was about to taxi to the runway when Britney got up and said she had to get off. She just said 'I don't want to fly on this plane. It hasn't got leather seats.' I heard everything but most people were left wondering what was going on, so the captain was forced to make an apology to all the other passengers over the tannoy."

Of course everyone else on the flight was pissed.

"It was quite a fiasco but she didn't seem to care about anything except getting off that plane. All the passengers were furious."

Brit did wind up finding a ride that met her demands, because she continued her House of Blues comeback tour in Miami Friday night, performing the same show she has been for the last few weeks, complete with a skipping CD that showcased her lip-synching. Brit pretended to sing to a sold out venue after fans waited on lines around the block for hours to get in to see her shake her mini-skirted groove thing.

Whoops!
