Facing multiple lawsuits and criminal cases in several countries, you would have thought that the controversial influencer and self-proclaimed misogynist Andrew Tate would have bigger things to worry about than the state of Delta Air Lines’ domestic First Class… but you’d be wrong, it would appear.
Wrapping up a trip to Las Vegas, Tate says he just couldn’t bring himself to leave the United States on an international flight out of Sin City because he would then miss out on being able to fly in Emirates First Class, which features a shower spa on its Airbus A380 superjumbos.
The only way around this predicament was to book a First Class domestic flight to another city where Tate would be able to catch an Emirates flight, and he decided that Delta Air Lines was his best choice.
How wrong he was, it turns out.
“What the actual f**k is this? Tate asked in a post to his 11 million followers on X. “You Americans call this luxury? Peasant bulls**t,” the British-American protagonist wrote.
The post concluded: “I’m disgusted.”
Thankfully, for Tate, at least, the experience was soon over, and a couple of hours later, he posted a short video clip of himself settling into his Emirates First Class seat.
Born in Washington DC to an American father who met his British mother while working for the US Air Force on deployment in the UK, he was raised in the United States before his parents filed for divorce.
Following the separation, Tate moved with his mother back to the UK and was brought up in Luton.
Tate first rose to fame in 2016 when he appeared in the British version of reality show Big Brother. However, he lasted only six days before producers kicked him off the show after a video emerged that allegedly showed him attacking a woman.
A self-proclaimed multi-millionaire, Tate says he made his wealth by running an erotic webcam business. In the years since, Tate has faced multiple accusations of sexual coercion, sexual violence, and human trafficking.
Tate denies all of these allegations and maintains a loyal following on social media.
Given Tate’s apparent wealth, you would like to think he had learned his lesson and would choose to fly private in the future. I can’t imagine Delta Air Lines would be too disappointed if he doesn’t fly with the carrier again.
An influencer is the same, in my opinion, as the definition of an oracle: “A priest or priestess acting as a medium through whom advice or prophecy was sought from the gods in classical antiquity.” In plain old English… “a bull***t artist”. I quit listening to these know-it-alls when I realized that their opinion is like … well decorum prevents me from using the word but, their opinion is like an as****e. Everyone has one.
