Solange Knowles Gets Embarrassing Afro Pat Down At Florida Airport

Singer-turned-Dj Solange Knowles faced a humiliating pat down at a Florida airport on Wednesday (14Nov12) after security guards demanded to search her afro wig.

Beyonce's younger sister was on her way to board a flight out of Miami when she was asked to remove her hairpiece to prove she wasn't hiding any prohibited items under the afro.

A stunned Knowles later took to her Twitter.com blog to share her astonishment with fans, posting a link to a 2011 news article about a woman who was subjected to similar treatment by Transport Security _A_dministration (TSA) officials at an airport in _A_tlanta, Georgia.

_A_longside the website address, she tweeted, "I kid you not. This just happened to me."

She later added, "Discrim-FRO-nation (sic). My hair is not a storage drawer. _A_lthough, guess I couuld (sic) hide a joint up in here."

However, Knowles refused to let the incident upset her and instead had a little Twitter fun with her followers by playing a game she called, "What did TSA find in Solange's Fro?".
