Selma Blair's history of biting people has been put in the spotlight after the actress was accused of biting a flight attendant during a Delta Air Lines flight, reviving an explanation she gave years ago for behaviour she said occurred when her system became overwhelmed. Blair was arrested after the 11 October flight from Los Angeles to New York, where she allegedly assaulted two flight attendants.
Her representatives said she experienced a medical emergency, while her lawyers said she had missed several doses of medication and hit her head, contributing to severe confusion and disorientation. Blair has pleaded not guilty to the state charges.
