Good Charlotte's Joel Madden told to cover up on plane

April 27, 2009

Good Charlotte's Joel Madden has revealed he was forced to cover up his tattoos before being allowed to board a plane.

The musician was all set to board a British Airways flight from London to Lisbon when he was stopped by BA staff.

He was told to put a long-sleeved shirt on to cover up both of his arms so other passengers couldn't see his tattoos.

Madden said he considered 'fighting the power' but eventually covered up because other passengers were 'looking and laughing' at him.

He wrote on his Twitter page: "was just told by a british air person I can't get on the plane till I cover my tatts. Should I fight the power?

“i really actually am in shock he won't let me on the plane till I put long sleeves on and other BA rep is. i still can't believe Brit Air discriminated me for tatts. Unheard of. the guy was literally disgusted by me. I'm gonna write a letter!!

“i did end up covering my tats. Its not my style to cause a scene I just had a convo with the BA guy told him how it was discrimination

“Yes i covered up to board the BA flight. I didn't want to miss it. And honestly i was embarrrassed all the people were staring and laughing! its not in the rules that i can find.my tatts arent offensive.looking into it. i havent felt this small since the first time i asked nic out.”
