I will begin by saying I adore Jessica Chastain, but gurl,
when she steps in it, she steps in it …
Chastain got dragged on social media after calling out
JetBlue because their inflight entertainment was down during a recent trip; and
even though she, like every other passenger on the flight, was offered a $15 credit
for the inconvenience, she was not having it:
“Thank you @JetBlue for your $15.00 credit. My flight was
$1,500 and the credit is 1/100 of the money I paid you. Strange that I paid
that for your flight entertainment system that didn’t work for the duration of
my 6hr flight, but I guess it was worth it for this $15 credit.”
When the airline informed her that everyone received the
same $15 credit Chastain ratcheted up her ire:
“I understand but I spent $1500 on the flight and so did my
husband. There should be some flight credit or something since I have a
TrueBlue account and have been a loyal customer.”
And as happens, Xwitterers came for her:
“Jessica Chastain beefing with an airline publicly on
twitter shows that no matter how much money you have you’ll never stop being a
millennial,”
“Is 6 hours together that horrible that you lose it over not
having movies to watch?”
“Jessica Chastain is whining about paying $1,500 for a Jet
Blue flight and not having a working TV. The way you can be a millionaire but
still be a broke bitch at heart.”
As one Twitterer said, Jessica should learn to read the room
because then she wouldn’t spend her valuable time deleting all her
self-entitled, broke-ass Tweets and texts. |
