This week Sandra 'Pepa' Denton, from the rap group Salt-N-Pepa, claimed she had been kicked off her Southwest Airlines flight after refusing to give up her second seat for another passenger, despite paying for two tickets so she could stretch her injured leg [click here if you missed that].
Southwest shares their side of the story...
From TMZ
Southwest tells TMZ Hip Hop that initial reports from their teams indicate Pepa did not respond to crew member instructions, and denied her boarding to ensure the safety and comfort of other passengers.
Pepa tells us she'll certainly be exploring her legal options regarding any potential ADA violations toward flyers with disabilities.
According to her, Southwest agents attempted to move her into the bulkhead emergency row, which she declined. Remember, her boarding passes were marked "disabled" ... so, if there were an emergency, she couldn't assist!!!
