Hairspray star Nikki Blonsky is finally opening up about the airport fight she and her family had with the family of ANTM castaway Bianca Golden.
Nikki says that she and her father Carl are “completely destroyed” by the incident.
“The hardest part for me is to see my parents walk around in severe upset and sadness,” she says.
The fight erupted at the Providenciales International Airport, where the Blonsky family was waiting to fly home from a Caribbean vacation in the Turks and Caicos. Blonsky says that the Golden family – including Bianca, her mother Elaine and her brother George – grew angry when some passengers were saving seats in the departure area.
Things took a nasty turn, she says, when she asked Bianca not to point her finger in her face. “That’s when she stood up, pulled her arm all the way back and said, ‘F— you, you white b—-.’ And she closed her fist and punched me,” says Blonsky.
Golden – whose mother, Elaine, had to be airlifted to a hospital for her injuries – gave a very different account, telling Tyra Banks that Nikki kicked her mother in the groin and that Carl punched her mom in the face.
“Absolute lies,” says Nikki.
Personally, I’m completely destroyed by the fact that this airport didn’t catch this shit on security cameras. WTF is up with that? Aren’t airports supposed to have cameras everywhere? If not to catch terrorists, then at least to catch Nikki Blonsky ripping out Bianca’s weave? Is technology good for nothing anymore?
god, srsly.
WHAT is the world coming to?
she smokes for SURE
oh and i read somewhere that either it was in a place where the cameras werent, or there was a malfunction.
either way, something airline security does NOT want to admit.
I hate seat savers, especially people who try to save a whole family’s worth of seats. If your butt ain’t in the chair, it’s open season.
What irks me is that whenever I read about this story, all commentors side unanimously with Golden despite the fact that most of them have seen ANTM and have seen Golden’s less than pretty side. Could it be political correctness, and bodily prejudice, gone mad? A tall thin black girl vs a short fat white girl, hmmmmm. And who is the press giving more a bad wrap? Well, they seem somewhat biased at least.
I know very little about Blonsky, therefore have little to say in her defense. For all I know, she could be a world class b!tch. However, it is nonetheless absurd when people are afraid to side with her, or at the very least be objective, simply because she’s white (and short, overweight) and the other girl is black (and tall, and thin)?
Golden’s playing the race card against Blonsky is just low. Golden has carte blanch because she’s black, and Blonsky has to hold her tongue because she’s white.
AND FOR THE RECORD, I am neither black nor white, so I’m not choosing to support Blonsky out of racial bias. I’m just saying it’s completely lame that no-one stands up for her purely because of stupid retarded political correctness.
if it were all lies, then how come bianca’s mom had to be airlifted to hospital. who beat her up then?
Have you ever been to an airport outside North America, Europe or parts of Asia? Security or safety isn’t such a big issue in some airports. I went through an airport in Nigeria where I wasn’t allowed to take my mosquito repellent (despite the threat of malaria) however I was allowed to carry on a rather large wooden table and my escort (a local) was allowed to walk me all the way to my gate. And my boarding pass was hand written.
Isn’t this the 2nd airport brawl Nicky and her father have been involved in? Unfortunate. Coincidence?
Umm… Bianca’s mom suffered a FRACTURED SKULL. Not just minor cuts, bruises etc, but a FRACTURED SKULL. I’m a nurse. That is a serious injury that can easily lead to brain swelling and death. Nicky Blonsky is a liar who is trying to salvage her career in light of bad press.
I was really pleased when I first saw her achieve fame considering the press loves skinny minnies. Not any more.
May her career end, her family suffer and may they all die destitute, unremembered and unloved.
Airport security must be terrible there if Bianca’s mom got her ass kicked that badly
I personally think that nicky is a fucking bitch and to call anyone of any other color or race the N word is totally unprofessional and I hope her low life career TAKNKS!
This event occurred on her former manager’s birthday. Talk about “Karma for the Ages”!! Justice has been served, albeit cold.
