Was Ms. LuPone cooperating or did she try to pull a diva stunt like Diana Ross did at Heathrow a few years ago?

It doesn't matter, Goth. No woman should have to remove her shirt in public on order. It's just bull**it.

But Borstal, she's a CELEBRITY. They're exempt from pretty much everything else, why not having to strip in public?

true shes a celebrity but I dont think she should be commanded to take off her shirt if she doesnt feel comfotable doing it, but i didnt finsih the article, did she in the end do it? nvm i should probably read it all lol
but i agree with Borst celebrity or not shes still a woman with dignity and self-respect

And lets keep in mind Miss Lupone is not a recognizable celebrity, not a household name/face. This could happen to you, ladies..

We're living in different times. It would be great if people didn't get onboard airplanes carrying weapons, but we just can't count on that anymore. It doesn't matter if LuPone is a household name or not. If she starts resisting when she is asked to do something, then of course they are going to make it more difficult because it has raised their suspicions.

At Fort Lauderdale airport on Nov. 5, LuPone says she removed her shirt after vehemently protesting, revealing the thin, see-through camisole that she was wearing. Next, she was given a pat-down by a screener who, she said, "was all over me with her hands," including her groin area and breasts.

Oh my god, they groped poor Patti's groin and breasts! How humiliating for a diva.

I saw Summer of Sam. Patti ain't got that much to "pat".

obviously the security guard who "was all over me with her hands" was a broadway fan who's been spending her nights dreaming of just such an occasion ever since patti snubbed her outside the door of the broadway theatre in '79 refusing to sign her evita playbill. right now she's downing beers at pandora's box on i-95 and regaling regulars with the story of how she got her revenge on ms. patti "not too busy to sign my playbill now are ya" lupone.

beaver,

I think that's the right approach. Next time I get on a plane (relatively soon, actually) I'll make sure I have on good undies and if they as for the trou drop, I'll do it without a second of hesitation.

Ya either got it, or ya ain't.

well, sum, the story is that when those two saw the 6'-5" 235lb sculpted adonis who was checking in the other security lane they requested a joint multi cavity check and were not heard from again for hours.

WOW! I'm sure she was VERY upset by this... I can't even think of what was going on through her mind when they asked her to remove her shirt! We just saw in Cincinnati, OH a couple of weeks ago. CRAZY! I'm more than sure my wife and mother both would have had big problems doing that...
