Actress MO'NIQUE was thrown off a plane after arguing with a flight attendant who the TV star alleges was racist towards her. The disagreement broke out after the 38-year-old's stylist stashed a hair dryer in a first class baggage locker. While the PHAT GIRLZ actress was flying in luxury, her aide was in economy class. The flight attendant allegedly said to Mo'Nique, "Tell your people that the next time they have an attitude, they are being thrown off ... Since 9/11, we don't play around." The spat resulted in the small screen star - full name Mo'Nique Imes-Hicks - being escorted back to Chicago's O'Hare Airport where, according to the actress, a supervisor called local police. Mo'Nique tells the New York Daily News, "I felt like I was being treated like an animal. This happens to black people all the time, and they don't have a voice. It was humiliating." JEAN MEDINA, a spokeswoman for United Airlines, says, "We regret Ms Imes felt in any way that she was not treated with courtesy and respect. "There was a confrontation involving a customer that caused the flight to be delayed. When a situation occurs on a flight that causes a delay, or disruption, we must act in the best interest of all our customers."
