No, no, no, no, no, no... Diplo joins airline passenger hall of shame 47-year-old American DJ and music producer Diplo took to social media to show off while in Emirates' Boeing 777 first class. However, he wasn't showing off the unlimited caviar or Dom Perignon (perhaps even P2!). Instead, he was showing off his yoga…

Amelie Lens is much more talented and way more mysterious and discreet. This is an excellent illustration of that latter, if not the former points.
You want it to stop? Then stop giving these jackasses the attention they so crave. Until people just stop feeding them, this will continue, things will get even worse, and society will continue down the drain to the sewer.
Social media is a cancer on society. Who's responsible for it? You are.
WHO??? Just deport whoever this irreverent and inconsequential fool is and let's carry on!
What a disgrace to Emirates, to First Class, to the United States, to Dubai, to his home country, and to Airbus. One nasty case of undescended you-know-whats.
You took the words right outta my mouth, William. This is a prime example of a time to use that metaphor!
Diplo is another name for anal beads.
This is a video of anal beads doing yoga.
"Next time I'll lead the whole cabin," he brags? Lead yourself straight to hell, you delusional buffoon! The crew had to YELL at him to stop - that's how catastrophically out of control this moronic spectacle was!
I thought Diplo was still busy telling people that he slept with Justin Trudeau -- butthurt that Katie Perry cut in on him.
This individual should have been arrested upon landing and criminally prosecuted for endangerment of an aircraft, disobedience towards peace officers (flight attendants as they act as CAPTAIN authority - Google it), public nuisance, and endangerment of others (unsecured person during turbulence could pose a Threat)
Watched Da Nang Dick Diplo on Emirates doing Yoga almost as well as his "music" (not very!). As all the passengers cheered and applauded Da Nang Dick as he was instructing passengers left and right, he then woke up from his dream screaming that HE LIED. Next time I want to listen to a non-stop barage of bullshit I will ask “the Dick” to travel with me!
The sooner Americans, and influences in general, are banned from flying, the better for humanity.
Yes, or perhaps a brain scan, or better yet, whatever test tells you if you have undescended little grapes for you-know-whats!
I completely forgot Diplo existed. What an odd way for him to re-enter my consciousness.
Ugh. Can't you just enjoy EK First? Like, it's really quite nice, and you don't have to do this stuff.
More years ago that I can count a (more legitimate than diplo) rockstar did some yoga or stretching on the tip of a BA 747 JFK LHR next to the closet while her personal assistant held a blanket wide so we in 2A etc would not see. It was equally lame -at least I was left with a funny story to tell- but at least there was no proud social media posting at that time. Regrettably my cell phone had no camera either back then
CSM quietly and discreetly apologized to is saying it was ‘her routine to do so’
Being a part of the patient zero generation of social media, I concur strongly
WTF....... Who the F@#% is Diplo anyway?? Instead of "Duplo", toddler size Lego he's some kind of middle age washed up Lego!! With disgusting personal hygiene judgement in First Class in an airplane!! Ewwwwwwh! :o(
Ben, do yourself a favor and get rid of Instagram (and all other social media while you’re at it). That way, people like this (whoever they are) will have no incentive to do this type of thing. Your life will be better and these idiots will fade away. I made the break about five years ago and I haven’t missed anything.
Dip lo is when happens when I put my yoga'd self to work doing that limbo limbo
Whoever diplo is, he comes across as a lipstick and attention seeker and a clown. Nothing else.
Whoever diplo is he comes across as a dipstick. He's an attention seeker and a clown. Nothing else.

voice is as if he smoked a ton of cigarettes not a person to aspire to become IMO
I recently learned that Diplo had a sexual tryst with an underage girl at an Austin hotel. Shocked it hasn't been more widely publicized.
If he had socks on, it would be fine. Too much intolerance around.
I’ve done stretch g on long haul flights.
The more I think about this, the more I shake my head. It would be nice to take a poop into this guy's head - at least then there would be something where his brain is supposed to be. What a moron.
I never heard of him before and have only seen seat maps of their FC cabin. But, if he put on socks, and it wouldn't disturb others on the flight not part of his entourage, I'd be OK. But, obviously if he was told to stop, the stop.
@Andrew, I agree. As you noted, the most effective way to stop its spread is to avoid reposting or amplifying it. This wasn't worth the attention given more valuable information about travel we could be reading and sharing here.
The guy also runs marathons on LSD. Just about everything he does wades into "just because you can, it doesn't mean you should" territory.
Unfortunately, he got his wish, you publicized it. If everyone ignored these people, they wouldn't try to be outrageous.
Jessica, I’m not gonna ‘yuck’ your ‘yum’ but if you’re into doing that on anyone’s head… gurl, you do you…
If you behave like that you forfeit your premium seat. Captain should have put him in economy, middle seat, for the remainder of the flight.
Other ‘1990’… what’r you doin’ man… I don’t talk about peoples, uh, peep-ulls, like that…
Other ‘1990’… oh no, you’ve been rewarded with a ‘Helpful’ for your comment impersonating me that I wouldn’t have thought of myself. Well done, I guess. The student becomes the master… *bow*
Don't forget he is a gobshite who will do anything for attention though, being the entitled seppo he is. And I don't JUST mean Diplo either.
He spent quite a bit of time here in Orlando, including at UCF.
He's also got his own Dance music channel on Sirius/XM.
So I'm a big Diplo fan.
Since when did expecting people to conduct themselves in a civilised, considerate manner in public become “hate”? If you don’t know how to behave around other people, including on an airplane journey, you can expect to be (figuratively) slapped-down, and ridiculed for being the vulgar, nouveau riche Mississippi pissant that you are. The guy is an asshole, and he’s cheap white trash. All the money on earth won’t change that.
At least he did it while in his seat and not in the aisle.
No idea who Diplo is btw
Well said. If it wasnt terminal, most of these people would try to commit suic*de live just for the clicks/views/likes.
Rod and Willy doing dick jokes.
This is ironically classic.
While the wording is still obviously fake Eskimo, you get extra credits for baiting colloquialism names to do colloquialism jokes.
Entitlement. Many believe they have it. Many of them end up in bad situations.
Who in the hell is this dip pole idiot?! Really? You donut this, on a public conveyance? And pay so much just to sleep. Really?!? Sit down eat sleep and act like a human you moron
Just another American attention seeking sociopath satisfying his need to make himself look absolutely ridiculous, yes?
No, 1990, it was just an attention seeking sociopathic ‘dip-stick’ …. one of your mates, yes?
Niccce. I’m not creating a ‘brand’ or promoting my ‘image’ like an influencer. I’m using a pseudonym on a travel blog. No one cares about ‘1990’ or ‘AeroB13a,’ yet, I do enjoy commenting on a wide range of topics, as well as bantering with you and others, and advocating for a few things that I do hope will change (like, someday, an EU261-equivalent in the US.)
Other ‘1990’… glad you made Matt happy, but I honestly did not follow this one.
Who else are you impersonating these days? Was Eskimo not enough?
Later ‘Eskimo,’ so, you are the O.G., and the first two are the impersonator? (He’s impersonating me, too. Sometimes he’s not too far off. Is he doing opposite of you, or trying to imitate?)
Not you 1990, one knows only too well that you are always busy dancing to the organ grinder’s tune, yes?
Just another British attention seeking sociopath satisfying his need to make himself look absolutely ridiculous, yes?
Here on OMAAT "we only hate vulgar, nouveau riche Mississippi pissant egocentric assholes who don't know how to properly act in public, whether they be cheap white, tan, brown or black trash"! Right up there with people make voice or video calls loudly on speakerphone in public and coming more sooner than we all want on planes!! Uggggh, JUST MAKE IT STOP!!!
Well I never Eskimo, you too, admitted at last. Another organ grinders monkey, yes?
Am I the only one here who isn't bothered by this? It's Emirates first class which means he was in his own enclosed space. He didn't get in the way of anyone in the isle or galley, he wasn't making a sound, he was clothed, didn't bother crew, and I'm assuming the seatbelt sign was off. So what is the problem here?
Banned for what? Banned for not bothering anyone doing a quiet legal activity within his enclosed first class space? I could think of many other behaviors that would warrant a ban before this lol
Wondering whether we really do have a higher percentage of the people you describe or whether we just have a significantly larger population that dominates the (English-speaking) corner of the net we are perusing.
I could agree except for this point highlighted by Ben: “they yelled at [him], so [he] had to quit.”
