THIS Morning producers were left red-faced today after accidentally displaying a hashtag also used to promote 'teen' porn stars.
Georgia Rankin, who is "Britain's Tiniest Teen", joined Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield on today's show to celebrate her 18th birthday.
The young guest, who suffers from a rare condition called skeletal dysplasia, went on This Morning to have a special birthday makeover from the show's glam squad.
And to engage viewers with the show, producers encouraged people to comment and use the personalised hashtags on Twitter.
For Georgia's makeover, the show used the hashtag #TinyTeen - but unfortunately, it seems as though nobody researched the unfortunate choice of words.
As one Twitter user was happy to point out:"Hey @itvthismorning might be best to check what else is on a hashtag search!"
Anyone who clicked the hashtag would've been shown a variety of images of naked women who are barely legal to be part of the porn business.
The #TinyTeen hashtag is also disturbingly used for people who like to look young looking porn stars.
Also on the show, Holly Willoughby – a daughter of an air hostess – lifted the lid on her airport jitters.
She was whipped into a blind panic after sitting in a passenger seat for Feel the Fear back in 2005 which she confessed prompted a serious phobia which she only recently addressed.
She said: “My mum was an air hostess and I loved it.
“I never had a problem doing it (flying).
“They tested me on the show and I had to do barrel rolls and I plummeted to the ground.
“I was scared to within an inch of my life.”
The yummy mummy, married to TV producer Dan Baldwin, then revealed she had chatted to This Morning's experts Nik and Eva Speakman to try to heal her deep-rooted nerves.
Chatting to co-host Phillip Schofield, she said she now felt better prepared to travel ahead of her summer holiday.
