On Saturday, Forrie J. Smith alleged he was kicked off the plane.
On his Instagram account, Forrie J. Smith published and shared his perspective on the incident. The star of the hit show Yellowstone alleges that he was removed from a flight on Saturday for refusing to sit next to a masked passenger.
Why the Yellowstone star was removed from his flight?
In the video that was shared, the Yellowstone star told his followers the reason why he was removed from his flight.
In a video filmed at an unidentified airport, R, Smith stated his discomfort with being seated next to someone wearing a mask. He admitted to having been drinking but denied intoxication as a factor in his removal.
The Yellow said to the camera: "Like, I just got kicked off a plane."
In the video, he explained that he was forced of the flight 'because I didn't feel comfortable sitting next to somebody with a mask on.'
'I've been sittin' in the airport for three hours, yeah, I've been drinkin', but I ain't drunk, but they throwed me off the plane cause I'm drunk.' He added.
The video sparked debate on social media.
The video sparked criticism from fans. Many questioned his stance against masks.
"In the comments section, several fans expressed concern for the health of others, while others suggested showing empathy towards those with compromised immune systems.
One person said: He didn’t think that went through because there were other reasons to wear masks and it’s really none of his business.
A second wrote: I will forever wear a mask on planes and public transport. Who cares?! I don’t care what you do. Everybody mind your own business.
While a third commented: That’s embarrassing. Crying because you can’t smell your neighbor’s breath? Mad because your breath and sweat can’t mingle together on its way to each other’s nasal passages? I think he was just wasted.
Someone else said: Lol. How long was he delayed because of his temper tantrum? He did the masked person a favor by getting booted.
Another added: He sounds like a total mess. Drunken and immature even in advanced age.
Previously, the Yellowstone star refused vaccination
This incident isn't Smith's first brush with vaccine mandates. In 2022, he missed the SAG Awards due to his refusal to get a COVID-19 vaccination.
Smith did not specify the airline involved or if he faced any further consequences beyond removal from the flight.
