Step aside Angelina Jolie, Ms. Safety is here

Admit it. You pay as much attention to safety videos as you do to airline menus. They're both boring, stale and never fail to underwhelm you - even when you're starving. This past weekend, Katherine Lee made her debut on YouTube, sending a clear message to airline execs: If you want to make us happy, give us something fresh.

Katherine Lee as DeltalinaKatherine Lee as DeltalinaKatherine Lee, the single 33-year-old who has been with the airline for a decade, stars in Delta's newest safety video. She auditioned against 81 other flight attendants to be the new face of safety for the airline. Her cheekbones have earned her the name of "Deltalina" - a tribute to her similarity to Angelina Jolie. But is she sexy enough to make you pay attention to safety during your next flight? Do you even care?

Delta's confident that not only will you want to watch her for her beauty but also her playful, intelligent personality. And they're betting her covergirl smile and finger wag are a shoo in for male and female viewers alike.

The release to YouTube was a test drive of the airline's new image. And if interest over the weekend isn't enough of a thumbs up, you be the judge:

What do you think? Will you watch Deltalina on your next flight with Delta?

This was probably the first

This was probably the first time I've ever payed attention to a safety video. I figured she was an actress but was surprised to hear she was an actual flight attendant. She's gorgeous and the finger wagging was both hilarious and hot! Very well done video. Now only if Deltalina would show up on one of my flights!

I'm watching this video when

  • On Surviving a Hurricane While Traveling, Lisa S. said "Growing up in good ole NC, I have survived my share of storms. Actually, where I sit currently (on a barrier island) has been under water many times. Staying on an island is scary. We leave if it is over a CAT 1. The most important thing for us is to fill our gas tanks at the first inkling that there may be a storm. Water, medicines, non perishable food, they're all really important. Honestly, if it is a big storm, alcohol later serves as pay for work. We stock up on EVERYTHING. We start eating out of the freezer days before (like we did tonight, getting ready for Earl). You don't want much to go bad. Then we tie up all the trash cans, secure grills, and hold on for dear life :)"

  • On American Tourist Kidnappings on the Rise in Mexico, Roger said "Better not to drive if you can travel by bus. Buses are not apt to be targets like cars with US plates that also can be stolen. The buses in Mexico are very comfortable like flying in a plane they often have movies and it is safer.Plan your trip and don't travel alone especially if you are female.Women traveling alone are a target Good luck and stay alert."
