Southwest Airlines Takes on Britney Spears Like Crotch Shots


Britney Spears wouldn't likely be allowed to flash her wares on Southwest Airlines. The fallen pop tart that made flashing famous with and without panties may have some people thinking about what is appropriate when you are in public. Especially when you are stuck on an airplane. For some reason southwest Airlines is taking a lot of heat for asking a woman to cover up during a flight.Kyla Ebbert tried to board a Southwest flight in a Britney like skirt and top that showed some skin. A male flight attendant asked her to try to pull the skirt down and try to cover her breasts. Her mom and lawyer appeared on the NBC Today show to plead her case.They claimed her short skirt was fine and that Southwest Airlines was out of line. Her mother claimed that the airlines were not going to get away with it. Ebberts, a Hooters waitress then stood up and showed of her outfit. It looked okay while she was standing - but when she sat back down the way to short skirt moved up and she flashed her panties to the national television audience. Oops, maybe Southwest had a point.Ebbert has been on the media tour since, pleading her case. No one has yet to even bother to ask her if she was wearing panties, and if she was how much could you see? The story by Cathy Beers, with a link to the video showing Ebberts flashing the NBC audience is here.I'm no prude, I see this stuff when I travel in California (where I live) all the time. But I'm backing Southwest Airlines here. Who wants their kids trying to stare up some scantily clad young woman's skirt even if she is wearing panties while stuck on a flight?
