British supermodel Kate Moss called a pilot a "basic b****" as she was led off a plane by police for swigging vodka from her cabin luggage, a fellow passenger says.

The 41-year old was reportedly escorted off the plane at a London airport for being disruptive.

No arrests were made following her arrival from Bodrum in Turkey, where she had been celebrating the 50th birthday of actress friend Sadie Frost.

A witness said the celebrity had a run-in with the EasyJet airline staff after they refused to serve Moss alcohol.

"She was a little drunk and had a disagreement with another passenger on the flight as she was refused alcohol and then went to serve her own vodka from her cabin luggage," a passenger told MailOnline.

"She called the pilot a 'basic b****' as police led her off the plane."

The woman, who called herself Emily, said Moss was not aggressive to anyone and was "funny really."

She said the cabin crew were acting out of proportion.

The Croydon-born catwalk star has graced thousands of magazine covers and worked with almost every major fashion designer.

Her waifish looks, party lifestyle, and a string of celebrity partners, including Johnny Depp and Pete Doherty, have kept her in the headlines for years.
