Addison Rae goes full 'Birdbox' at LAX and the internet can’t stop laughing

Addison Rae wore a blindfold at LAX, fueling hilarious 'Birdbox' jokes as fans flood social media with memes

Addison Rae was spotted arriving at Los Angeles International Airport wearing a black blindfold, instantly prompting comparisons to the hit thriller Birdbox. The social media star’s unusual airport style did not go unnoticed, with fans flooding online platforms with jokes and memes. Many couldn’t resist making light of the moment, imagining Rae navigating the busy airport without sight in classic Birdbox fashion.

Footage and photos of Rae showed her confidently striding through the terminal, blindfold in place, headphones in, and a sleek black outfit completing the look. While Rae has not confirmed whether this was a publicity stunt, preparation for a potential audition for the Birdbox sequel seems to be the running joke online. Memes depicting her dodging luggage carts, airport staff, and other passengers went viral within hours.
 

“I guess Addison Rae really wants to see if she survives airport security like Sandra Bullock survived the apocalypse,” one user quipped, while another shared a mock movie poster titled Birdbox: Terminal Edition. Even late-night comedy accounts joined in, joking that Rae might start a new trend: traveling blindfolded to test social skills or patience.

This is not the first time Rae has made headlines for her airport antics. Her fans are familiar with her bold fashion choices, but this one earned extra attention for its sheer absurdity. Social media reaction ranged from playful admiration to affectionate roasting, proving once again that Rae’s every move is content gold.

Whether the blindfold was for a project, a joke, or just a fashion statement, the internet has spoken: Addison Rae + blindfold = endless memes. Some even suggested airlines should issue “Birdbox survival kits” for passengers who want to emulate the viral moment.

Fans are eagerly awaiting any confirmation about the Birdbox sequel, but in the meantime, Rae has unintentionally created one of the most memeable airport appearances of 2025.
