Bobby Brown, the ex-husband of Whitney Houston, has reportedly been thrown off a flight for being too drunk.
Police boarded the flight to speak to Brown who was held at the entrance of the plane, sources say.
According to TMZ, the R&B singer was kicked off the JetBlue flight from LA to Boston, which caused the flight to be delayed for an hour.
Passengers told the site that Bobby – who is said to have admitted to drinking before boarding – was not disruptive and didn’t kick up a fuss when denied alcohol.
Onlookers claim that JetBlue employees “jumped the gun” by calling the police.
A JetBlue spokesperson said the “My Prerogative” singer was “removed from the aircraft prior to departure after crewmembers observed indications of intoxication.
“The decision to remove a customer from a flight is not taken lightly,” the statement added.
The representative added that Brown declined the offer of a later flight and instead was issued a refund.
Brown’s only daughter with singer Houston, Bobbi Kristina, died in July 2015. Six months earlier, she’d been found unconscious at home in her bathtub.
Houston was found dead in a hotel room bathtub in Beverly Hills on 11 February, 2012.
Bobby Brown has been contacted for comment.
