Jennifer Bassey kicked off plane after confrontation

Actress Jennifer Bassey, who is best known for playing Marian Colby on ABC's daytime series "All My Children", was kicked off a Delta Airlines flight by police after getting into a confrontation with a flight attendant.
Bassey said that the ordeal was "undignified, embarrassing and beyond stressful", reported E! online.
At that time, Bassey was flying to Indianapolis to visit her boyfriend and her plane got delayed for about an hour.
The 72-year-old actress then used one of the plane's toilets and she didn't wash her hands.
A flight attendant then addressed her as she was about to leave the toilet. "She asked me loudly three times, 'Ma'am did you wash your hands?' " she recalled.

Bassey told the flight attendant that she would be using a hand sanitizer and returned to her seat because her laptop was open. She said the flight attendant then approached her and yelled at her. "She stood there next to me waiting for me until I put it away," the actress said.

When Bassey put her laptop away, the flight attendant bumped her hand and told the actress, "Don't touch me! Don't ever touch me!" The actress then responded by mouthing an expletive.
Another flight attendant then came over and told Bassey not to argue with the first flight attendant and use foul language near a child. The plane then returned to the gate and the actress was escorted off the plane by police.

Bassey said Delta Airlines deemed her a "risk to carrier" and maintained she assaulted a flight attendant.
However, she denied it, saying, "It was all unfortunate, but I am a senior citizen who is petite and tiny. How could I assault someone?" She claimed she told police at the airport about the incident only to be laughed on.
She is seeking an apology from Delta Airlines and considering legal action.
A representative for Delta Airlines confirmed that Bassey was removed from the flight, adding that the airline is currently investigating the incident which took place at JFK Airport in New York City.
