Natasha Lyonne is stone-faced as she is seen for the first time since being ‘removed from plane’

Natasha Lyonne resurfaced in Manhattan on Thursday, two days after she was reportedly removed from a Delta flight bound for New York in Los Angeles.

On Tuesday night, Lyonne, 47, turned heads by going braless under a sheer top on the two star-studded red carpets of Euphoria’s season three premiere and the 2026 Fashion Trust USA Awards in Los Angeles.

He reportedly boarded the plane later that night but was asked to exit the plane after he did not respond to flight attendants’ instructions to fasten his seat belt and close his laptop before takeoff. Page Six.

Eyewitnesses claimed Lyonne, who admitted breaking almost a decade of sobriety three months ago, was asked if she needed ‘medical attention’ and eventually said the plane ‘wasn’t going anywhere until you landed’.

Lyonne was scheduled to appear at the Drew Barrymore Show in New York the next day – Wednesday – but was unable to attend.

But on Thursday evening, he crossed the country to appear at Lincoln Center for the premiere of the Lorne documentary.

The film was a profile of Lorne Michaels, the creator of Saturday Night Live, which served as a launching pad for the stardom of Lyonne’s ex, Fred Armisen.

Unlike her flashy outfits on Tuesday’s red carpets, Lyonne opted for a subdued suit with a black skirt and pads from the 1980s.

She wore her signature fiery mane down and wore a serious expression as she walked the red carpet in a set of towering monochrome stiletto boots.

Hours before the premiere, he broke his silence about Barrymore not appearing on his show with a tweet that neglected to explain why he missed the taping.

‘My heart goes out to the unpaid TSA agents at our airports,’ he wrote. ‘Of course I was looking forward to having an honest conversation with @DrewBarrymore yesterday, but I guess that wasn’t in the cards.’

The Daily Mail has contacted Lyonne, Barrymore and reps for her show for comment but has yet to hear back.

Lyonne was said to have appeared disoriented on the Delta flight she allegedly took on Tuesday evening.

According to Page Six, she was sitting in first class and was still wearing some of the clothes she wore to the premiere when the series started.

She wore the same look when she attended the Fashion Trust USA Awards that evening, and was reportedly still wearing the same outfit on the Delta flight where she was allegedly kicked out.

An eyewitness observed Lyonne taking instructions from multiple flight attendants, and the actress reportedly fell asleep during the crash.

At one point, after apparently being startled, he was heard telling staff: ‘Oh! ‘You scared me!’

The staff eventually managed to retrieve his laptop, and the plane headed toward the runway before returning to the gate, where a Delta employee boarded the plane to speak with Lyonne.

‘Ma’am, do you need medical attention?’ the employee reportedly asked Lyonne. ‘Ma’am, you need to get off the plane. Do you need help with your belongings?’

‘Where are we?’ he was heard asking.

‘We’re still in Los Angeles. ‘The plane didn’t go anywhere,’ they said. ‘The plane isn’t going anywhere until you land.’

According to Page Six, Lyonne “coldly silenced” the employee before heading to the bathroom and walking out to grab a bag of bagels for a snack.

Once his luggage was removed, he obediently left the plane.

The captain later explained that they were dealing with a passenger who was unable to follow ‘basic commands’ when addressing the over an hour delay for passengers waiting to arrive in New York.

“For whatever reason…we had a passenger who did not comply with some basic commands…We had a passenger who did not appear to be up to duty tonight, so they were asked to rebook on another flight,” the captain was quoted as saying.

‘I apologize for the inconvenience, but we will get you to New York as quickly and safely as possible.’

The Daily Mail contacted Lyonne’s representatives for comment but did not immediately receive a response. Delta declined to comment.

According to TMZ, Lyonne was scheduled to appear on The Drew Barrymore Show the next day but was unable to attend.

Earlier in the evening, she shocked fans as she walked the red carpet flaunting her braless breasts in a fishnet top as she wrapped up her role in Euphoria.

The incident took place three months after he announced his relapse.

“I have made my relapse public, more will follow,” Lyonne told her 545,000 followers who showered her with support.

“Thanks boss…for the blessing etc,” the actor wrote in response to a supportive comment. ‘Sending love back your way. She could be a brunette or a nun. TBD.’

Lyonne did not give an exact time frame for when and how the relapse occurred, but emphasized that ‘recovery is a lifelong process.’

His written message on Saturday, January 24, continued: “If anyone out there is struggling, remember that you are not alone.”

‘I’m grateful for love and smart feet. I’m going to do this for baby Bambo. Be honest, guys. ‘As sick as our secrets.’

The Orange Is The New Black alum added: ‘If no one told you today, I love you. No matter how far we go, we will see how our experiences can help someone else. Go ahead guys. Don’t give up before the miracle. Turn your mind into wallpaper with love. ‘The rest is all noise and nonsense.’

‘I love you,’ she wrote to one devotee and confessed to another: ‘We need better systems and we need to end the shame – bill the Sacklers and stilettos and stuff but don’t text me because I’m honest.’

He was referring to the infamous Sackler family, best known for owning Purdue Pharma, which developed the highly addictive pain medication OxyContin and reaped billions of dollars from its sales.

Last year, the company was forced to cough up a $7.4 billion settlement for its role in the current opioid epidemic.

In March, she offered an update on her sobriety journey: “Proud to report that this kid is doing much better and is back on his feet,” she posted to X.

Lyonne, who completed rehab in 2006, previously talked about her descent into drug and alcohol addiction in a candid interview with Entertainment Weekly in 2012.

‘Turning into addiction is really scary,’ he said. ‘Some things have a scientific impact from A to B. For example, alcohol is a depressant. Cocaine is a stimulant. And then: Cocaine plus heroin is bad! That’s the point of my story, that’s the moral. Coke plus heroin equals speedball. Speedball also means bad, you know?

‘It’s weird talking about it,’ he said at the time. ‘I was absolutely dead, you know? A lot of people don’t come back. This makes me feel cautious and conscious. I wouldn’t want to be proud of it. ‘People actually gathered around me and lifted me up by my boot laces.’

Lyonne was making headlines throughout the early to mid-2000s, but it wasn’t pretty: a DUI arrest, a court appearance with a neighbor, a hospitalization for hepatitis C, a collapsed lung, infective endocarditis, and later open-heart surgery to repair the damage.

In 2006, at the age of 27, he checked into a residential rehabilitation center for treatment of drug and alcohol addiction.

“I was finally able to get through those dark nights of my soul,” Lyonne told The Times in 2024.

Lyonne has seen a career resurgence in her 40s, and has recently shifted her focus from leading roles to directing, writing, and producing; for example, the boxing movie Bambo, set in the 1980s.
