In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ortega opened up about some of her strange encounters with fans. She recounted one moment involving a flight attendant who couldn’t contain her excitement for Wednesday’s iconic look.

“I get recognized a lot for Scream and Wednesday, and it’s amazing how Wednesday has resonated with such a wide audience, both young and old. But I’ve had a couple of wild plane stories,” she told the publication. “There was this one time when I woke up to find a note left for me. And just yesterday, as I was getting off the plane, the flight attendant dramatically let her hair down from her bun, revealing two braids, and released her bangs while exclaiming, ‘You made me do this!’ It was truly bizarre.”
