According to People Magazine, Britney Spears was late for her American Airlines flight back to Los Angeles this weekend.

She reportedly ran through the airport to make her flight home.

Spears appeared teary eyed and begged the ticket agent to let her on the plane. David Paulsen, a man at an adjoining gate said that Britney was visibly upset when she begged to be allowed onboard.

"She was really upset. She (said) to the agent, 'I've got to get on this plane to get home to my kids.' She looked like she was about to cry."

According to David the ticket agent eventually called the pilot to see if there was time to allow Britney onboard.

"'I've got Britney Spears here and she wants to get on the plane.'" After a pause, the agent said, "'No, I'm serious. Can we get her on the plane?'"

Moments later the plane, which had not yet left the runway, returned for Britney.

An American Airlines spokesperson tells People that it's not unusual for the airline to allow late arrivals on the plane as long as it doesn't delay the flight. The final decision is left up to the cockpit crew and gate agents.
