Michelle Williams found herself in an all-too-relatable mid-flight nightmare—and she had the receipts to prove it.
The Destiny’s Child singer took to Instagram on Sunday to hilariously call out a fellow passenger who decided to go barefoot and make himself a little too comfortable on their flight from Chicago to New York.
The signer posted a picture of a bare foot propped up between the gap of her seat and the window.
“I PROMISE YOU BETTA GETCHO FOOT FROM ME!!!! 🚨,” “Y’all this is happening neowwwwwwww on my flight and I am crying real tears!!”
Some fans were surprised the singer, currently starring in the Broadway adaptation of Death Becomes Her, wasn’t flying private.
But Williams quickly clarified: this was first class.
“For those asking…….. YES I am sitting in the first class cabin……a lot of AUDACITY resides in that booking class……. OBVIOUSLY!! #seat3F the f is for feet."

In the comments, she revealed she eventually resolved the issue by elbowing the mystery foot.

Still, it wasn’t all bad. Williams admitted the barefoot passenger turned out to be friendly, even helping her with her overhead bin bag retrieval. “And I said thank you,” she added—because manners still matter, even at 30,000 feet.
Folks were as repulsed by the action as Williams.

People came up with ideas for how to banish the bare foot.

Others were not as charitable in their advice.
