Tiffany Gomas rebrands herself with glammed-out ‘empowerment’ selfie after ‘not real’ airplane meltdown
The Texas marketing executive behind the viral “that motherf–ker is not real” plane meltdown posted a new selfie on social media in an ongoing attempt to rebrand her tarnished image as “crazy plane lady.”
Tiffany Gomas, 38, looks cozy and casual while wearing a wide smile, long, flowing hair and bare feet in the selfie posted Sunday afternoon on Instagram — which admiring fans have already showered with thousands of likes.
“One moment doesn’t define you; but it can define your purpose,” Gomas wrote in a post that included hashtags #SelfLove #Empowerment #Motivation and #StayTuned.
The glammed-out shot and positive vibes have already made a difference.
“Woman of the year 2023!” one user wrote along with a smiley-face heart eyes emoji.
Other users were shocked at the difference between Gomas’ “crazy” plane behavior and the pleasant-looking image of the marketing exec on her kitchen floor.
“I’m telling you right now this isn’t the same lady from the plane,” a user chimed in.
The wannabe motivational influencer garnered nearly 15,000 likes on her post.
Previous Instagram posts from Gomas have just a paltry few hundred likes.
The notorious American Airlines passenger teased a new website recently by posting a two-minute video mea culpa — in which she calls herself “the crazy plane lady,” a nickname she said “is completely warranted.”
Under the embedded video, she shares the words “Stay Tuned” in stark white font set against a black background.
It was not immediately clear what project Gomas was preparing to unveil, or when.
However, her video ended with the message: “Join me on my journey of promoting positive mental health and standing up against cyberbullying.”
The Dallas native has made a few attempts at trying to explain her bizarre conduct.
In her first interview with the Daily Mail last week, a defiant Gomas complained that her life has “blown up” since the incident aboard the plane — and urged the public not to “judge” her.
“My life has been blown up. It’s frightening. Things go viral and everything changes,” Gomas told the outlet, while standing in front of her $1.6 million Dallas home.
“No one knows anyone else’s story, and no one should judge. No one knows what it’s like,” she continued.
Gomas, who warned that she was consulting a lawyer, claimed that “so much” of the story about her was inaccurate, but she declined to elaborate.
In the infamous video, Gomas marched to the front of the plane preparing to depart from Dallas to Orlando and declared that she was getting off the flight because “that motherf—er back there is not real.”
“You can sit on this plane and you can die with them or not. I’m not going to,” she yelled while clutching her $1,900 Goyard tote, before being removed by cabin crew.
Gomas flew into a rage after a dispute between her and a relative, whom she accused of stealing her AirPods, according to police records reviewed by The Post.
Because of Gomas’ conduct, passengers were forced to deboard Flight 1009, before being allowed to get back on, causing a delay of at least 3 hours.
Gomas was issued a warrant for criminal trespass — but was neither arrested nor charged — after police found her sitting on a curb outside the airport terminal waiting for an Uber.
That followed the passenger’s several failed attempts to go back through a TSA security checkpoint and reboard the flight.
