Being hand searched at the airport is certainly an indignity, and would make lots of women uneasy, but many people are subjected to it and just accept the reason for it. She probably felt humiliated, and is used to telling folks what to do, calling the shots in her world, so she lost it! Not excusing it, but not surprised that a celebrity would do this, honestly.

I remember the incident being headline news back in '99 and she was portrayed here as something of a 'spoilt diva'.

Again, although it is not excusable, I am not surprised that a celebrity would do something like this. Hitting an airline employee does not lend itself to very favorable news coverage, does it?

Some crackers on that show wasn't there! Slik, which was Midge Ures first band, Paul Nicholas who went on to TV and west end theatre fame, Andrea True Connection (rumoured to be a porn actress!) Diana Ross, who once attacked a British Airways staff member (whatever became of her?) Laurie Lingo and the Dipsticks, who were Dave Lee Travis and Paul Burnett (two popular Radio One dj's at the time) Eric Carmen who went onto invent hair curlers, a great song by Gladys Knight, don't know much about Silver Convention, Two belters by The Four Seasons and The Bellamy Bros and the highlight of the show being The Brotherhood of Man, the line up for this band came from Wakefield West Yorkshire which is just 2 miles from where I am sitting at this moment in time! in the 'small world category' I lived very close to Wakefield in a small place called Morley for about 18 months.
