Delta flight attendant threatens to have Grammy-nominated gospel vocalist ... trends now
A Grammy-nominated gospel singer has clashed with a Delta flight attendant after she refused to stop performing to fellow passengers.
Videos shared on social media shows Bobbi Storm, 36, making several attempts to put on a show for travelers until an airline employee threatens to escort her from the plane.
The Detroit-born vocalist features on the Grammy's 2024 Best Gospel Album nominee The Maverick Way, by Christian group Maverick City Music.
Footage of the drama starts mid-confrontation, as Storm appears to have stood in the aisle to perform during the flight while an unimpressed attendant orders her back to her seat.
'I'm charting right now on the billboards,' Storm says, as the attendant says: 'Can you just sit down and be quiet?'

'The seatbelt sign is off. It's not a disturbance,' the singer retorts - though she backs down the aisle and slides into her seat all the same.
The passenger beside her films what happens next as the drama escalates. Now back at her seat, Storm starts to tell her origin story to her captive listeners, gaining a mixed reaction.
People sat across the aisle shoot uneasy side-glances in her direction, while one woman appears to be enjoying the spectacle.
'I used to sing on planes a long time ago,' Storm says. 'I just found out I'm up for two Grammys. My very first time, you guys.'
Several passengers applaud as she elaborates: 'My name is Bobbi Storm, and I'm up for two Grammys.
'I sing for the Lord, and my song is out on all platforms. It's called We Can't Forget Him. I wanna share this with you guys.'
Storm reveals that she was planning to treat passengers to a song as soon as they got on the plane - but rethought this plan because she's 'reached the next status'.
But at this point the flight attendant marches back into view and interrupts her spiel, asking her: 'Are you able to be quiet?'
Storm hits back, claiming the other passengers were 'enjoying it'.
'Well I'm not enjoying it,' the Delta employee retorts. 'I'm asking you can you please be quiet?'
'Am I gonna go to jail if I don't?' Storm asks him.
