‘Baywatch’ star stuck on private jet amid FAA’s nationwide ground stop

“Baywatch” star Brooks Nader found herself stranded on a private aircraft amid the FAA’s rare nationwide ground stop.

According to TMZ, on Friday, the “Love Thy Nader” personality was “literally about to take off” from New York on a flight bound for Louisiana, where she was set to attend the LSU football game, when the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) sent out its unusual alert putting a stop to all departing flights.

The outlet claimed the TV star is “safe” but is stranded on the tarmac. Pilots have not issued updates, and per TMZ, it’s not likely her flight will depart this evening.

Nader, 29, shared an Instagram Stories selfiefrom what appeared to be the private jet on Friday, throwing up a peace sign and teasing her scheduled appearance in Baton Rouge.

Fitness model Jen Selter, however, told the outlet that she was already in the air, as her flight managed to make it off the ground an hour before the alert went out.

She told TMZ that despite confusion and chaos as the news unfolded, her flight had been calm, with a pilot providing updates in an “extremely calm and professional” manner. Passengers, too, had remained calm, Selter told the outlet.

A rep for Nader did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment on Friday afternoon.

Due to a communications issue that affected air traffic control centers nationwide, the FAA put out the nationwide ground stop on Friday, leaving travelers across the country stranded in various locations.

This isn’t the first unfortunate flight-related incident for a celebrity in recent years.

Last month, “Legally Blonde” actress Selma Blair, 54, was arrested over an alleged in-flight meltdown explained by her rep as “a medical emergency” — which the actress has since apologized for.

Also in October, Donnie Wahlberg found himself “thankful” to be alive after his private jet skidded off a runway in Las Vegas.

And earlier in November, Jessie James Decker handled a smelly situation with a nearby passenger’s foot by cheekily spraying it in a social media video.
