Ex-UFC star Paige VanZant accidentally reveals she made sex tape with husband to airport security after Googling herself
FORMER UFC star Paige VanZant accidentally revealed to airport security that she made a sex tape with her husband when trying to prove her identity at the airport.
The new All Elite Wrestling star recently had trouble boarding a flight with her husband Austin Vanderford as her ticket had been booked under her maiden name.
In a bid to prove her identity to airport staff, the former Dancing with the Stars contestant Googled herself.
And the first result was SunSport's story on her revealing she had made an x-rated tape with hubby Vanderford.
VanZant laughed at the embarrassing moment on Twitter, writing: "So, my flight to Texas got booked under, Vanzant, which I still go by professionally.
"But my legal last name is my husband's @austinv170mma.

VanZant, 27, is currently gearing up for a switch to pro-wrestling after inking a big-money deal with AEW.
But she'll also remain active in bare-knuckle boxing promotion BKFC - where she's yet to taste victory.
VanZant is now perhaps best known for selling subscriptions to her risque website.

She regularly shares revealing pictures with her followers on social media as well.
During lockdown, she and Vanderford entertained fans with cheeky naked pictures of their home life while managing to cover their modesty in inventive ways.
On her latest venture into pro-wrestling when quizzed what it was that attracted her to it, PVZ told : “Everything about it.
"You know my athleticism. I come from a fighting background, I come from combat sports.
"I also come from a gymnastic background. I feel like there are so many parts of my skill set that I’m not able to utilize in pro fighting.
“Pro wrestling has been something I’ve wanted to get into for a very long time, but I’ve had prior contracts that didn’t allow that.
"Luckily, I’m still a professional Bare Knuckle boxer with the BKFC.
"They couldn’t have been more supportive, so they’re actually supporting this transition as well. I’ll still be doing Bare Knuckle boxing with the BKFC and doing AEW.
“They allowed me to have an open-ended contract where I could go compete and be a part of AEW pro wrestling.

"So that was a big push, just having their support throughout the entire thing, and I know that they’re going to help build the AEW and vice versa.
“I think it’s going to be a really cool crossover between the two worlds because they are very similar. They are in the combat sports world.”
