Bebe, 34, said, "The supervisor on Lufthansa is threatening me."

"I've been threatened because I thought the security agent was Albanian," she wrote.

"I spoke to him in Albanian asking where to get my ticket and how he is banning me from the flight."

Her second post consisted of her sitting in the airport and crying.

In the third slide, she continued on with her story.

"I believe this to be a hate crime because I am Albanian," she wrote.

";He continued to mentally abuse me me to make feel more powerful than he was.

"Not one of the women at @Lufthansa stepped in or said something.

"He would not give me his name but I just found out he works for ATSG, a service company document control hired by Lufthansa."

ATSG, an American aviation contractor, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In a fourth post, Bebe reshared a message from a fan pleading to get her out of the airport safely and urged Munich to investigate the person who reportedly "threatened" her.
