From NY Post: The drunken passenger who grabbed a woman’s hair and spat in her face during an explosive meltdown on a Southwest Airlines flight is a New York City-based artist, who has worked for high-end brands like Maybelline, Steve Madden and Adidas, according to her online profile.
Leanna Perry, a 32-year-old illustrator, was filmed berating fellow passengers and throwing a violent fit as travelers and airline employees tried to remove her from the plane at LaGuardia airport early Tuesday morning.
The bizarre outburst led witnesses to describe Perry as seeming “possessed” before she was escorted off and arrested.
Perry’s social media and website where she shares her work revealed that when she’s not ruining flights, she’s worked as an artist and designer for several major brands including Maybelline, Adidas, MAC, Steve Madden, Hot Topic, and Shein.
The disturbing plane incident saw Perry ranting at other passengers, hurling insults and expletives, and physically assaulting a bewildered victim.
“She was zip-tied and flailing like she was possessed,” a person who claimed to be a witness wrote online, according to the International Business Times. “The entire flight was horrified.”

Don’t you think Leanna Perry should no longer represent Maybelline? You say you’re for all women but she sure made millions feel horrible.
