What to do when lining up at airport security and you realize your ID is nowhere to be found?

Eazy – if you happen to be a well-known rapper. Just simply grab a magazine out of your carry-on bag that just happens to feature you on the cover.

That was the predicament G-Eazy found himself in during a recent flight.

When he realized he misplaced his ID, G-Eazy, real name Gerald Earl Gillum, got out the latest issue of XXL magazine with his face on the cover, and hoped for the best.

The TSA agent must have been a fan, as his creative solution worked and he was let him through.

He was traveling with girlfriend, singer Halsey, who tweeted: "Gerald lost his ID and he’s trying to use the cover of @XXL as part of his additional identification to get through airport security. I’m so annoyed."

"It worked," the rapper replied, who has more than three million followers on Twitter.
