Paige has dealt with some seriously uncomfortable airport encounters before, but autograph scalpers apparently just found a new way to cross the line. This time, someone was waiting for her right at the gate as she stepped off her plane—with roughly 30 photos ready to be signed.
Paige took to Twitter and called out what happened during a connecting flight. She made it clear that she is normally pretty relaxed about autograph requests, but having somebody apparently figure out where she would be arriving and wait directly at the gate was completely different.
“Airport scalpers are morphing.. Had someone waiting for me as I was getting off the plane at the gate of my connecting flight with like 30 pictures.. I’m easy going with this stuff but pulling up to my gate is f****** weirdo behavior. Don’t do that.”
Unfortunately, airports have already been a problem for Paige. Back in November 2025, she revealed that someone had gone considerably further by buying a plane ticket just to get through security and secretly film her for around 40 to 45 minutes.
“There was a video recently that was on TikTok of someone following me from my gate… They bought a ticket to get past security to film me coming off the plane from a distance. And that makes me feel so uncomfortable too. So please don’t do that. I’m cool. I will take a picture with anybody at any time… But do not do it where you’re making me feel unsafe. That makes me feel unsafe.”
Months later, she’s once again dealing with somebody waiting for her at an airport, except this person apparently went directly to the gate where she was arriving with a stack of photos in hand. Paige has been pretty accommodating about meeting fans, but tracking her movements closely enough to be waiting as she gets off a connecting flight is exactly the kind of behavior she’s already asked people to stop.
