Madonna reportedly got the star treatment on a recent Virgin Atlantic flight from New York City to London. According to a new report from the L.A. Times, the flight was rerouted from its initial destination and the singer was allowed to leave hours before the rest of passengers.
The plane landed at London's Stansted Airport, and according to one passenger, Madge and her crew were whisked off the plane on their own private bus.
"After about an hour, a bus came along and took her and her party of about 15 off the plane. It seemed a little unfair — it's not like she is the president or anything. The rest of us all had to wait for another two hours," a passenger tells the L.A. Times.
The passenger adds that Madonna was not exactly patient during her hour-long wait, saying: "It was bad enough having to wait, but then she started doing her yoga in the aisles."
