Celebrity Big Brother star Luisa Zissman took to Twitter yesterday morning to air her annoyance with the security team at London’s Stansted Airport after they ‘invaded her privacy’.
The 28-year old former Apprentice runner-up took to Twitter on Sunday morning after she was stopped by security who allegedly asked to see the photos on her phone before she boarded a flight to Dublin.
Tweeting at staff at the airport, Zissman wrote:
I’m @STN_Airport & the security woman demands to see the pics on my phone! WTF? She was embarrassed when the selfies came up! #weirdo

The reality TV star and entrepreneur later told followers on Twitter who reprimanded her for releasing the worker’s name that how she was treated was:
“unprofessional & she shouldn’t be allowed to do that whilst at wrk. I would sack one of my staff 4 this”.
Speaking to the Mail Online, a spokesman for Stansted Airport said that although they take all complaints seriously, Zissman volunteered her phone for inspection to staff:
“We are aware of the tweets by Ms Zissman yesterday and if a passenger is unhappy with any part of their journey through the airport, they should forward details so we can review and investigate, if necessary. We take any complaint seriously and fully investigate each and every one.
“No photography is permitted within the security search area as part of the DofT’s security regulations. It was believed Ms Zissman may have taken a photo within the restricted area and was asked that, if this was the case, it be deleted.
“She presented the phone to security and she herself showed that no photos were taken. She then continued her journey through the airport. As mentioned, if Ms Zissman contacts the airport with any details or complaint, we will investigate and respond to her directly.”
Luisa’s representation has not yet responded to the statement.
