Tatts On A Plane: Airline Staff Force Joel Madden To Cover Up!

Rocker Joel Madden is absolutely spewing after a British Airlines employee made him cover up his tattoos before boarding a flight to Portugal.
Nicole Richie’s baby daddy was told he wouldn’t be allowed on the flight unless he covered his arms with a long sleeved shirt. He did what he was told without kicking up a fuss, but Twittered his outrage to over 100,000 fans as the drama unfolded…
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? 7:56 PM Apr 25th from TwitterBerry
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 disagreeing 7:57 PM Apr 25th from TwitterBerry
And in case you’re wondering, Joel doesn’t have any tattoos of naked ladies or satanic verse. He has Jesus on one arm and Mary on the other!
After arriving in Portugal, Joel Twittered:
yes i covered up to board the BA flight. I didn’t want to miss it. And honestly i was embarrassed all the people were staring and laughing!

British Airlines has confirmed they actually don’t have a policy against tattoos and they are speaking with the vigilante staff member involved. Sounds like some tattoo-hating BA-er is going to get fired!
