Selma Blair apologises for in-flight incident. “I am a flawed human being who makes mistakes”

Selma Blair released a statement today about her recent outburst to Vanity Fair, describing herself as “a flawed human being who makes mistakes”

While on a flight from Cancun, Mexico to Los Angeles, the actress was
removed from the plane on a stretcher and rushed to a hospital after losing control. Blair,
flying with her four-year-old son Arthur and her father’s son,
ex-boyfriend Jason Bleick, had
an “outburst” that involved her crying and saying phrases like “He
burns my private parts. He won’t let me eat or drink.” and “He beats me.
He’s going to kill me.”

“I made a big mistake
yesterday. After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol
with medication, and that caused me to black out and led me to say and
do things that I deeply regret,” she writes.

“Her son, she says,
was asleep with his dad and wearing headphones. “I take this very
seriously and I apologize to all of the passengers and crew that I
disturbed and am thankful to all the people who helped me in the
aftermath.

“I am a
flawed human being who makes mistakes and am filled with shame over this
incident,” she continues, “I am truly very sorry.”
