Playboy model Sara Blake Cheek is speaking out after a recent flight with American Airlines, claiming she was singled out for her outfit — and she believes her blonde hair and chest size played a big role.
Cheek tells The Pop Radar that she had made it through security, scanned her boarding pass, and gotten to her seat when a flight attendant allegedly approached her. The attendant reportedly told her to button her flannel and cover her sports bra.
Outfit Controversy in the Air


Sara shared photos of her outfit on social media, noting that it was far from risqué — in fact, it provided more coverage than a swimsuit. She pointed out that in today’s travel climate, a little cleavage shouldn’t be shocking, and many other passengers were dressed similarly without incident.
“I was totally humiliated in front of other passengers,” Cheek said, expressing her frustration at being singled out.

Cheek Says She Was Targeted
Sara explains that she frequently wears outfits like this while traveling, which allow her to fit in a quick workout on the go, and she’s never faced criticism before. However, she believes the treatment she received was influenced by her appearance.
“Put simply, I think I was targeted because I’m white, blonde, and have a big ol’ rack,” Cheek told us.
Uneven Enforcement of Dress Codes
Cheek also notes that the dress code seemed inconsistently enforced, pointing out that other passengers were wearing similar outfits without any issues. The incident has sparked a conversation about appearance-based policing in public spaces, particularly for women who stand out due to body type or hair color.
American Airlines Silent
Multiple attempts have been made to get comment from American Airlines, but the airline has yet to respond to Cheek’s claims.
