Indian-American actor barred from Mexico-US flight over turban

Mexico City - A Sikh Indian-American actor and designer said Monday that he was barred from boarding an Aeromexico flight from Mexico City to New York because he refused to remove his turban.

"This morning in Mexico City I was told I could not board my @aeromexico flight to NYC because of my turban," Waris Ahluwalia wrote in his Instagram account.

The 41-year-old bearded actor posted a picture of himself holding up his boarding pass and another in front of an Aeromexico customer service desk. The House of Waris chief was heading to New York's fashion week.

"Dear NYC fashion week. I may be a little late as @aeromexico won't let me fly with a turban. Don't start the show without me," he added.

The Mexican airline issued a statement late Monday saying that it was obligated to follow "federal requirements in terms of security determined by the US Transportation Security Administration to review passengers."

The airline said it "regrets the inconvenience that any passenger may perceive from the application of these procedures" and it vowed to transport all passengers regardless of their religious beliefs.

As an actor, Ahluwalia appeared in the Oscar-nominated film The Grand Budapest Hotel and the US television series The Carrie Diaries. He also has modelled for clothier Gap.

The reality TV star has wasted no time in looking for a new man by signing up to free site OkCupid, and she admitted it was "really fun" filling out the profile with her pal Malika Haqq.

She said: "I've never done online dating before, but just for shits and giggles, Malika and I decided to fill one out.

"It was actually really fun to do, LOL!"

On her profile, Khloe - who is said to have dumped basketball professional James two weeks ago - admits she is a big fan of cinnamon-flavoured sweet treats Hot Tamales and "can't get enough Italian food".

She said: "I always, always have Hot Tamales in my nightstand! I'm actually going to eat some right now."

The 31-year-old star posted details about her profile on her own website and also admitted she is easy-going and loves to spend time with her family, especially the youngsters.

She said: "Working or hanging out with my nieces and nephews: Penelope, Mason, Reign, Saint and North! Taking every day as it comes."

Other highlights of her profile include her favourite book, which she says is The Coldest Winter, which explores the American involvement in the 1950-53 Korean War.

She also picked out her favourite film, opting for 1989 comedy Troop Beverly Hills, in which Cheers star Shelley Long plays a Beverly Hills housewife who takes on her daughter Hannah's (Jenny Lewis) Wilderness Girl troop to distract herself from her own divorce.

If that isn't enough to land a guy then they might be keen to know that Khloe is a big fan of watching sitcom Sex and the City, and listening to R&B music.

Khloe - who is still married to Lamar Odom - will no doubt be inundated with potential suitors to her profile, but just in case nobody clicked on it she drummed up some support on her Twitter account.

She tweeted: "@ForeverMalika and I filled out an @okcupid profile just for fun! Are we a match? On my app (sic)"
