Actress Selma Blair was arraigned Monday on two counts of second-degree assault after an alleged altercation aboard a Delta flight that landed at JFK Sunday night, with bail set at $20,000. She's accused of kicking a law-enforcement officer and a nurse; her lawyers say a missed-medication issue led to a "medical emergency," according to NBC News. She pleaded not guilty.
