Her looks just won’t fly.
Sure, upgrading your face from basic economy to premium first-class via cosmetic surgery has its perks.
But the pain of being unrecognizable in your legal ID photos at the airport outweighs the benefits of being beautiful, so says influencer Ashley Stobart.
“My passport, because I’ve had that much work done, it doesn’t work on the barriers,” UK resident Stobart, 35, said on her “Nip Tuck” podcast, per Need To Know, admitting that her newly enhanced mug doesn’t pass go at plane station checkpoints.
“I’m not even joking — it doesn’t work on them,” continued the mom of one, who married into a wealthy family worth an estimated $24 million. She’s unabashedly undergone a facelift, nose job, brow lift and lip flip.
And although the massive makeover has left Stobart feeling like a brand new woman, it’s also left her fighting for her right to catch a flight.
“I got stopped, and they were, like, ‘This is not you; have you got like credit cards on you and stuff?’ ” the millennial confessed, recalling an airport security guard’s shock at her eye-popping transformation.
“He was, like, ‘What the hell,’ ” she remembered of her interaction with the stunned agent. “I was, like, ‘Nose job, brow lift, lip flip, face lift.’”

Janaína Prazeres, 35, counts herself the “perfect woman” after opting for 20 plastic procedures, totaling nearly $1 million. The Brazilian bombshell claims “confused” airport staffers briefly blocked her from boarding a flight to the U.S., owing to her many body modifications.

“But at that moment, it was a shock — you never expect to be stopped at an airport without doing anything wrong.”
Gessica Kayane, 32, best known as Gkay to her 20 million social media followers, was in danger of missing an airship back to Brazil in April due to her repeated trips under the knife.
After a breast augmentation and lift, a nose job, fat removal from her jawline and cheeks, and a lip filler, the cyber siren looked nothing like her passport photo.
Luckily, a few throwback pics did the trick.
“I’m glad I had my Instagram and several ‘before and after’ [pictures] to prove [my identity]’ ” she said in a digital post.
“First things to do back to Brazil,” declared Kayane, “update all the photos of my documents.”
