Celebs sound off on United Airlines after passenger incident
"This could be me or you next time," one star wrote.
— -- Hours after video surfaced of a United Airlines passenger being forcibly removed from his seat on an overbooked flight, celebrities began sharing their opinions of the incident on social media.
United's CEO, Oscar Munoz, released a statement on Twitter Monday, saying he apologizes "for having to re-accommodate these passengers" and noted that the airline is investigating the incident.
Some stars took issue with the language of the airline's official statement.
United did not comment when asked why the passenger was permitted to board the overbooked plane.
