Ashley Olsen and her beau Justin Bartha were forced to make an emergency landing Sunday night after the cockpit of the plane in which they were flying caught on fire.
The twin, 23, and Hangover star, 31, were en route to L.A. from New York in a United Airlines flight when an electrical fire caused a crack in the plane's windshield, publicist Phil Lobel, who was also on the plane, tells E!.

It was safely diverted to Washington Dulles International Airport around 9:30 p.m., where fire trucks and ambulances greeted the plane's 100 passengers on the runway. Everyone was rebooked on Monday morning flights.
A rep for Olsen tells E! she and Bartha are OK. Californication actress Pamela Adlon and Jarrod Spector, who stars in Broadway's Jersey Boys, were also on the plane.
Olsen isn't the only one having plane problems.
A Monaco-bound Kim Kardashian was grounded in L.A. thanks to the volcano ash cloud return, which closed London's Heathrow airport Sunday night.

"I'm so upset I'm not there. It's my mom's favorite place and I wished I could have taken her," Kardashian, 29, tells UsMagazine.com.
A source tells Us her makeup and hair team were on a separate flight that already departed.
















Tell Us What You Think
23It's amazing how Ashley and Kim are only six years apart in age and KK looks like a woman and AO looks like a teenager. Doesn't AO comb her hair? It always looks messy? She has more money in her bank acct than many of us would ever see so why can't she hire a stylist? And her eyes look terrible. Makeup is supposed to enhance your looks not make you look like a racoon. They think it makes it look better but really it doesn't.
Kim you are my hero. I luv u! I hope you are allright
@Hey,,,LFMAO!!!, her plastic face would melt, tooo funny - best one on here
Speaking of flying. Time FLEW. It seems like just yesterday my friends and I were doing the whole "countdown 'til the Olsens reach 18" thing .
Who is dis mom a ho wit? do tell me? lol
What is this Halloween? You are scaring the shat out of me with these ugly pix here!
The Olsen twins are so scary looking.
Why is KK even famous? FOR WHAT??? Doesn't US mag get it? WE DON'T CARE!!! Everything about her is fake! ENOUGH!!! She needs to get an education. It's all sex, sex, sex with her. What mother would approve of her actions. NO MORALS, VALUES OR SELF-RESPECT.
Kim's cheeks do look funny!
That's too bad.
Kim looks good. This other gal looks like a raccoon.
Wow Kim's hot here. I saw her without make up though and she doesn't look this good. I was amazed.
Good thing the plane didn't fly over the volcanoe! It would have melted Kim's plastic face!!! LOL
Ashley looks like she just crawled out of a garbage can, like a bag lady. I'm sure Kim just crawled off her knees giving head! Hey peeps, I love Kim's sex tape. It's awesome. I watch every night. I love seeing pee squirt on her plastic face! Surprised she didn't try giving the pilot a blow job to get the plane started or let him piss in her face. After all she has to get to her next phot op. To miss it to her must be like a matter of life and death LMAO!
What is going on with Kim's face?!?
Aww I thought the plane crashed I was bummed to read both these hos are ok...Whats up with the drag queen makeup on the right of the picture...and someone tell ashlee homless chic is so 2005
That sucks!
Don't really care
Ashley needs help from Kim on doing her makeup. It's ghastly! Yikes!
Does Kim Kardashian have to be in every story? I mean what did she have to do with Ashley Olsen's plane catching fire? She wasn't even on the same flight? I don't hate Kim K but I do get tired of seeing her and the whole Kardashian clan everytime I open a magazine or turn on the TV.
