Jessica Simpson's movie almost showed on Nick Lachey & Vanessa Minnillo's flight

**MaryJane** · March 22nd, 2007, 12:56 PM

Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo were spared an awkward flight by compassionate air stewardesses who decided not to show Jessica Simpson's latest film as the in-flight movie.

The couple were horrified when it was announced that 'Employee of the Month', starring Nick's ex-wife, was to be shown during their recent first class flight from New York to Los Angeles.

A source told the National Enquirer magazine: "Nick and Vanessa were visibly freaked out and started whispering furiously to each other."

The flight attendants noticed their reaction and quickly huddled in the galley for an emergency meeting.

Moments later they announced: "Ladies and gentleman, due to technical difficulties with our in-flight movie, we will instead be showing 'Badidas' starring Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek."

BFD. Couldn't they just put on those damn eye masks that the airline gives you? Um, ever heard of head phones?

They were probably disappointed. I have no doubt they were whispering because they couldn't wait to make fun of her in the movie!

So that's what constitutes an emergency on an aeroplane these days?

Protecting some no-mark celebs and their delicate sensibilities?

Hoped they tipped the cabin crew well, but I bet they didn't!

They may have looked "horrified" but they're not reporting in as actually requesting for the crew to change it, this one needs to be laid at the feet of the cabin crew....

(maybe they were hoping for a replay of Ralph Fiennes & that woman... or something)
