XXL has been taking some heat lately for the way they select their Freshman Class.

But those who think the magazine is worthless may want to reconsider after hearing how G-Eazy was able to get through airport security even though he lost his ID. Here's Eazy -- XXL's Spring 2018 cover boy -- and his famous girlfriend Halsey explaining how G-Eazy convinced the TSA to let him board.

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
