Yesterday, The Daily Mail appeared to score a coveted interview of Tiffany Gomas, the woman behind the now-infamous TMFINR Plane Video, in which Gomas claimed a passenger on her plane “wasn't real” and demanded she be taken off the plane for fear of her safety.
The spooky encounter frightened passengers, leading to the delay of their flight as the plane was rechecked for safety and the passengers were rescreened. For weeks after the viral video circulated the web, the identity of Gomas was unconfirmed, as were the circumstances that caused her viral outburst, though it later came out that it emerged from an argument with a relative about a missing AirPod.
Thus, when the Daily Mail promised they'd gotten Gomas to "break her silence," many readers eagerly clicked in the hopes that they would discover what was going through Gomas' mind when she claimed someone on the plane was "not real." Instead, they got some facts about Gomas' job and wealth, but not much else.
It appears the publication tracked Gomas to her Dallas home and began asking her questions from outside the building. Exclusive photos from the article show Gomas talking through a slightly ajar door in her house.
The publication makes note that she lives in a $1.6 million Dallas home and is the owner of Uppercut Marketing. However, the only comments they were able to get from Gomas were about how frightening her life had become after going viral. Below is every quote Daily Mail published from its interview with Gomas:
"My life has been blown up. It's frightening. Things go viral and everything changes."
"No one knows anyone else's story, and no one should judge. No one knows what it's like."
"They're staking out my house. They're staking out my neighbors. They're going through my mail."
"So much of what's out there is inaccurate."
The publication notes that Gomas did not clarify what she meant when she said the information "out there" is "inaccurate." The rest of the article recaps the viral video and offers some more factoids about Gomas.
This was hardly the bombshell and clarifying interview followers of the viral video were hoping for, and many chastised Daily Mail for publishing the uninformative story, as well as its reporting tactics.
Folks wanting more thorough details on Tiffany Gomas' viral plane video will probably have to wait until she chooses to speak to the media, as she may not be keen to speak to journalists that have tracked her down and waited outside her home for comment.
