Refusing to accept this, Shadonna Jones and Juvenile argued with the staff, asserting that they were already in their correct seats. Juvenile warned that his celebrity status would prompt backlash against the airline. Eventually, the couple decided to leave the plane, clearly unhappy with the treatment. Juvenile was later seen in a video on Instagram, sitting in his car and browsing first-class flights, including those with American Airlines.
