Joan
Rivers 'Held Hostage' in Costa Rica
Joan Rivers claims she was "held hostage" by
airport security in Costa Rica yesterday -
all because of a name from her past.
The drama unfolded after an airport official
checked out Joan's passport and became
suspicious when he noticed it read "Joan
Rosenberg AKA Joan Rivers."
Joan claims she tried explaining her late
husband's name was Ed Rosenberg -- but the
official found the whole thing fishy and
gave away her seat on a flight back to
Newark. Joan was pissed.
We're told police were called to the scene
-- but Joan never got her seat back.
According to TMZ.com, Rivers, 76, missed her
flight and was forced to spend another night
in Costa Rica. She flew home on Monday
morning (04Jan10).
Airport staff all over the world have
stepped up security on flights to the U.S.
after a terrorist attempted to detonate a
bomb in his underwear en route to Detroit,
Michigan from The Netherlands on Christmas
Day.
