Many world-famous artists often have strange hobbies or unreasonable requests for hotel, motel, and airline staff.

Dolores O’Riordan

Singer Dolores O’Riordan got into trouble with the law earlier this week (November 9) for allegedly hitting a flight attendant on an Aer Lingus flight from New York to Ireland.

Immediately after arresting Dolores, the police took her to a local hospital for a health check but the results were completely normal.

Female singer Dolores was arrested by the police as soon as she arrived at Shannon airport.

Josh Duhamel

The Transformers star also made US Airways flight attendants hostile when he refused to turn off his personal phone when the plane was about to take off on the New York – Kentucky flight.

A witness recounted that Josh refused to turn off the phone despite being reminded three times with a provocative and rude attitude.

Josh Duhamel’s incident happened in early 2010.

Having the same `unconscious` action as Josh is Alec Baldwin.

Kevin Smith

On December 13, 2010, after settling down on the flight from Oakland to Burbank, he was politely invited off the plane by a flight attendant on the grounds that he was too fat.

Afterwards, Southwest Airlines had to apologize to Smith and give him a $100 bill.

Thanks to this incident, a year later Smith lost nearly 30kg through diet and exercise.

Billie Joe Armstrong

In 2011, the singer of the band Green Day – Billie Joe Armstrong – was forced to leave the plane on the Oakland – Burbank flight for the reason that his pants were hanging too low, causing his butt to be almost completely exposed.

The Green Day singer was forced to leave the plane due to his outrageous fashion sense.

Leisha Hailey

Actress Leisha Hailey and her girlfriend were also forced off the plane by Southwest Airlines in September 2011.

After many cases of being `aggressive` with world-famous artists, Southwest Airlines was jokingly nicknamed by many tourists as `the nemesis of stars who like to act offensively`.
