Default Celebrity issue on Qantas domestic flight - 15/4

A fight involving the entourage of some of the biggest names in hip-hop and R&B threatened to break out on a Qantas flight, it has been revealed.

Kelly Rowland has already said she and the 100-strong touring party were treated "really sh***y" and like "five-year-old kids" on the flight from Melbourne to Sydney.

Now UK star Jay Sean, who is touring Australia with Rowland and several other artists, has told how the argument on board the plane was triggered by some members of the group using their mobile phones.

Sean, speaking to Sydney's 2DayFM radio station, said, "The drama on the plane was insane.

"All of us, we all sat up the front of the plane in business and let's be honest, sometimes hip-hop or R&B stars, we don't look like we belong there in the way that we dress sometimes.

"One of the stewardesses who probably didn't know who we were, or who Akon's deejay was, started giving him grief about switching his phone off and all sorts of madness so a fight nearly broke out.

"She was super patronising like we'd all won tickets for an upgrade or something and we should all behave ourselves.

"She was like, 'Sir, sir, I need to see the phone. Is it off?' She was bad and shouting at everybody. It wasn't nice."

Jay, Kelly, Akon and Eve were on Qantas flight QF430 which landed on Thursday afternoon.

The stars are in Australia to perform at the Supafest series of concerts.
