      I got ya. This is all it says about her on that article

      The actress stars in a buzzy new ad for Emirates Airlines where she wakes up from an awful dream of flying on a plane without luxury amenities, but in reality flying gives her nightmares. The nervous passenger leans on a preflight ritual to make sure any type of in-flight meltdown is avoided.

      “If I walk onto an airplane, I always have to go on with my right foot first and tap the outside of the plane. I have always done it. For luck,” she says. “Someone told me to do it, and I don’t remember when that was. But it’s kind of stuck.”

        So someone with a fear of flying in an ad for air travel? Nice. Feels like a metaphor for capitalism. Maybe more of a literal description than a metaphor.

        Thanks tho! 🏆
