French Montana Joins Boycott of Delta Airlines After YouTube Star Was Kicked Off Flight
Delta Airlines is getting roasted on social media today after YouTube star Adam Saleh posted a video of him and entourage getting booted off a plane. The well-known prankster, claims he was kicked from a flight to New York out of Heathrow Airport in London for speaking in Arabic to his mother on the phone.
“We’re getting kicked off the plane because we spoke a different language,” he says directly into the camera. “This is 2016 ... I spoke a word and you said you feel uncomfortable.”
After the video went viral, rapper French Montana is taking a stand against the airline by publicly stating that he will no longer us their services.
"I don't like speaking on things like this but this struck a nerve," he states on an Instagram post. "I have a mother that doesn't speak English and discrimination like this make me really sad. The fact that this can happen to her makes me sick. I'm NOT using delta anymore smh #equality"
That's not the only blow for Delta today online. The hashtag #BoycottDelta is now trending worldwide on Twitter and users are furious.
