Did a twerk video get an Alaska flight attendant fired? That’s what it sounds like!

A former flight attendant on Alaska Airlines is now running a GoFundMe after losing her job over a twerk video that has since gone viral online. Nelle Diala had only been working there for 6 months before being terminated for breaching social media guidelines. Who knew a quick 20 second video could get you in so much trouble? It sounds like she shared the video while waiting for pilots to board the plane and was celebrating the end of her probationary period. Well, she’s not celebrating any more. The original video had the caption of “Ghetto Till I Die, Don’t Let The Uniform Fool You.” Some viewers of the video started asking for her to be let go as it was seen as inappropriate to be doing that in uniform. People want to feel safe while flying and maybe this didn’t help. Check out the video that started all the drama shared by @hearasap below.

Was A Flight Attendant Let Go Over A Viral Twerk Video?

While the video might seem harmless. She doesn’t really do anything wild or inappropriate in the video just a little twerk dance while celebrating. The internet is full of videos like this. However, doing it in uniform on the job probably isn’t the best idea. It’s like something you’d see on Halloween with someone dressed as a flight attendant, you don’t want the real things doing this before your flight. I can understand that. However, it just seems to me like she’s happy and celebrating. Maybe give her a firm talking to but to lose your job over it? Seems like it might be a bit excessive. What do you think?

Comments are divided, as the internet usually is. One commenter was showing her support by saying, “She’s not disrupting service and literally no one is on the aircraft. Why fire her?” However, not everyone seems to share that perspective. Another user commented, “Flight attendant rules are, while wearing your uniform you are representing the company. I don’t think she should be fired but I’m sure her inflight manager had a talk with her.” Yeah, the problem is wearing the uniform while doing it. That’s what likely did her in. Going through the comments, it seems like most people are supporting her and saying she should not have been fired over this.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.

  • Dave's Other Job Offer

    Can you imagine Dave in any other job? It would definitely be interesting! Well, it could soon become a reality. Dave received an offer from an erotic novelist to record the audio versions of her books and although he considered it, he doesn’t think his wife or the company would approve of him taking it as a side gig. I would buy that audio book!

  • Dave's Got Drugs In His Pockets

    Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about a guy who claimed the drugs in his pockets weren’t his and neither were the pants he was wearing. Dave then plays the song, ‘Drugs in my Pockets’ by The Monks but no one on the show has ever heard that song before. Turns out, the song isn’t bad! Well, at least as bad as Dave’s version of it. Check out BOTH versions above!

  • Dave's Plane Ass Incident

    Somehow, Dave always ends up in the most awkward situations. There’s one common denominator: himself. Dave was involved in an uncomfortable situation on an airplane over the weekend. He accidentally squirted hand sanitizer on a man’s ass that was standing in front of him and wanted to know if he handled the situation correctly.

  • Dave's Patio Furniture Update

    It’s the update we’ve been waiting for! Last year, Dave made a delivery mistake and sent outdoor patio furniture to people in Florida after meeting them one time. He shares an update after finding out the people kept the furniture for themselves and never said anything. Would you have done what Dave did? What would you have done in this situation?

  • Who Won't Stop Texting Dave?

    Technology has come a long way over the years. However, it still has a way to go. Dave & Chuck the Freak talk about an odd problem that Dave is experiencing involving his robot vacuum. It won’t stop texting him saying that it’s stuck, even when it’s not plugged in. Everyone says this is a problem only gadget man Dave would have to deal with.
