Flight attendant reveals what celebrities are REALLY like on board from Jamie Foxx to Michael Blackson
A flight attendant, known as @thehungryflightattendant on Youtube, shared insights into her experiences with celebrities on flights, including encounters with stars like Jamie Foxx and Mary-Kate Olsen.
She shared that both Jamie Foxx and Mary-Kate Olsen were coincidentally on the same flight she was working. Describing the encounter, she mentioned that Jamie was traveling with his daughter, emphasizing that he was super friendly, smiled a lot, and didn’t request anything during the flight. She also praised his daughter as sweet and down-to-earth.
She confessed that her “inner child freaked out” when she discovered Mary-Kate Olsen would be one of her passengers because she “grew up watching the Olsen twins on everything.”
She added: “When I saw that I was going to have her on my flight, oh my gosh. She was so tiny and so cute. She smiled, greeted us, made eye contact, was very friendly when she came on, but she went right to sleep and didn’t ask for anything.”
She’s encountered other famous people at the airport, including Australian actor Joel Edgerton, who she found to be “one of the most humble, kind people” when she met him in the Atlanta terminal.

Edgerton explained he was scouting locations for a film he planned to direct. Emily, a self-professed foodie, also shared her excitement at meeting two celebrity chefs during her travels. The first was Paula Deen, whom she described as “so friendly and warm,” comparing her to a sweet, little grandma.
She encountered celebrity chef Bobby Flay and was thrilled to find out they were on the same flight. She joked that she watched him the whole flight from the class right behind First Class, and after the journey, she mustered the courage to ask for a selfie, which he kindly agreed to.
Meanwhile, comedian Michael Blackson was another celebrity she had a memorable encounter with, as he shared a photo of them on Instagram. Although Emily gained an influx of followers, rumors quickly surfaced with people asking if they were dating. However, despite the anticipation of special treatment for A-list guests on a flight, airline worker Barbara Bacilieri recently revealed behind-the-scenes details, explaining that crew members are instructed to treat all passengers equally.

She emphasized the importance of maintaining professionalism, stating that while flight attendants may take pictures with celebrities if they’re comfortable, offering free drinks or better seats would go against their professional standards. Additionally, she emphasized the significance of respecting celebrities’ privacy and not sharing details about them on social media.
She explained: “The airline teaches us to treat all passengers the same way, without making distinctions. But the truth is that every time a famous actor or singer comes on board, all the passengers and the crew get stirred up.
“Flight attendants may be trained for emergency purposes, but we are also humans. And if this celebrity is cool with it, we can take a picture with them, but that is it. No giving free drinks or a better seat, that would be totally against our professionalism. More importantly, we shouldn’t go on social media spilling the tea on this celebrity that we had as a passenger. Taking care of their privacy and intimacy is very important.”
