Teen supermodel and daughter of Russian tennis ace slammed for ‘describing air passengers as “little people” when she chooses to fly economy’
Alesya Kafelnikova, 18, has been branded arrogant for her comments
A TEENAGE supermodel has been accused of arrogance after describing regular air passengers as "little people" because they do not have their own private jet.
Alesya Kafelnikova, 18, the daughter of former top tennis ace Yevgeny Kafelnikov, 42, made the comment on her social media page.
The super-skinny stunner posted a photograph showing a private jet from the window of a passenger plane on the ground at an airport.
And she added the comment: "This is my jet, but today I decided to fly with the little people."
Many of her followers accused her of arrogance as the Russian word she used, 'lyudishki', implies contempt.

One social media user said: "What an arrogant brat. She got her five minutes of fame and she thinks she's a star. Stupid chick.”
While another added: "I wish she was a bit fatter, at least then I could say she's attractive."
Kafelnikova reportedly earns £2,460 per day as a model and has worked at high-profile events including the London Fashion Week.
But since turning 18, she has been increasingly outspoken and apparently desperate to show her rebellious streak.
She dyed her brunette hair a shocking shade of blonde-pink, and regularly posts selfies in provocative outfits such as ripped jeans which show off her bum.
Recently, she referred to the so-called '27 Club' of stars, including Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse, who died at that age.
Kafelnikova wrote: "One day I will join the 27 Club, but I still have nine years."
She also wrote of wanting ‘snow’ - a common slang term for cocaine - and many online dwellers said she seemed to have dilated pupils in one picture.
Another photo, showing the model with her tongue out, was captioned: "Off to..." along with a pill emoji.
In September, the teen hit back at claims she is anorexic – by posting a picture of her tucking into a juicy burger.
Kafelnikova's famous dad is a Russian former world No 1 tennis player who won two Grand Slam singles titles - the 1996 French Open and the 1999 Australian Open.
