Octomom ****** Off TV Star On JFK-LA Flight

Suleman and co. leaving an LAX airport after their airplane altercation (TMZ).

Nightmares, we have many. But one that we didn't have until today was being trapped in a delayed airplane with Nadya "Octomom" Suleman and her brood of children. A situation that former 3rd Rock from the Sun star Kristen Johnston, along with a full plane, reportedly found herself in last night. Johnston at least managed to do more about it than we probably would have.

Suleman and her 12 kids were in New York for the tykes (arguably disastrous) first TV appearance on the Today Show—where Ann Curry had the first big interview with the Octomom in 2009. Thing got really tricky, however, when the clan few back to LA from JFK last night and their flight was delayed for more than two hours. Apparently Suleman could not get her tots in line.

Reportedly Johnston grew so agitated by the commotion she approached Suleman, whose group was taking up much of business class, and asked the woman to keep her kids quiet. According to TMZ, Suleman responded by asking, "How would you like me to keep eight 2-year-olds quiet?" To which Kristen allegedly, reasonably, responded, "Get more help!"

That irked Suleman, however, and she says she shouted back, "Why don't you grow a baby and get a life!" But Johnston just let it go and reportedly took a different flight back west. She has not commented on the incident.

Meanwhile, watching the Today Show segment from yesterday we totally feel for Johnston and the rest of the people on that plane. While talking with Ann Curry about her children and her financial issues (the kids cost $15,000 a month to support) Suleman seems unable to keep track of her progeny, who keep wandering off and being brought back on set by everyone from Curry to David Gregory.
