EXCLUSIVE! Y’all, buckle up, because the drama didn’t stay on the Dancing with the Stars ballroom floor this week—it spilled onto a DELTA flight! Sources are screaming about the ABSOLUTE TERROR Carrie Ann Inaba faced mid-air.
Listen, this isn’t your grandma’s travel story, chile. The beloved judge, 58, was flying from L.A. to the Big Apple when things went SOUTH FAST. We’re told she suddenly felt ‘very unwell’—and that’s putting it mildly!
Get this: Inaba was heading to New York for a VERY important campaign with Novartis regarding her Sjögren’s disease awareness. But instead of hitting the press junket, she hit the ER! Talk about a scheduling nightmare—a REAL one this time!
She described the onset as dizzying, nauseous, and feeling ‘very warm.’ But WAIT—it gets WORSE.
The real panic set in when her ARMS went NUMB! Can you BELIEVE this?! That’s the kind of medical drama you only see in movies, not 30,000 feet up!
Sources say she was initially trying to play it cool, thinking maybe it was just some bad airport sushi—food poisoning, maybe? WRONG!
She tried to tough it out, even while the plane was experiencing turbulence and the flight attendants were ordered to sit down. Talk about ISOLATION when you need help the MOST!
But when the numbness hit, she knew she had to call for backup! She finally alerted the crew, who, bless their hearts, brought in a doctor onboard to help stabilize her. THANK GOODNESS for that quick thinking!
We have the INSIDE scoop: Port Authority Police and EMS were waiting at JFK’s Terminal 4 like a scene from a Michael Bay movie! The whole operation was INTENSE.
Inaba didn’t shy away from the cameras—she posted video of herself in the AMBULANCE and inside the hospital. That takes guts, people! Most celebs hide when things get UGLY, but not Carrie Ann!
She confirmed she received fluids immediately upon landing because her blood pressure had DIPPED dangerously low. This was NO small scare!
Here’s the thing, y’all: While she confirmed this specific incident wasn’t directly tied to her ongoing battle with Sjögren’s, living with an autoimmune disorder means you are ALWAYS on DEFCON 1.
She admitted in a detailed social media post that normally she travels prepared with her ‘health tool kit,’ but this time, it felt different. This one ‘scared me,’ she confessed! That’s a HUGE admission from a TV veteran who seems unbreakable!
We’re told she was whisked away to the hospital, given IV drips, and finally released to her hotel room to continue resting. Phew!
But the gossip never sleeps! Was this a one-off stress reaction, or is the constant pressure of judging the nation’s favorite dancers finally catching up to her? We have to wonder!
The whole ordeal sounds MESSY and terrifying. Imagine being trapped over the Atlantic, feeling your body shut down!
The good news? She’s resting up now, according to her reps. But this serves as a MAJOR wake-up call for everyone living with chronic illness: You CANNOT fake it till you make it when your arms go numb!
We wish Carrie Ann a speedy and full recovery. Stay tuned, because when the next update drops, you know MediaTakeOut will have the EXCLUSIVE tea!
