UGA Student Lily Stewart Arrested Again Following Viral Mugshot Fame

The 20-year-old gained internet notoriety earlier this month for her smiling mugshot and now faces new charges of obstruction and loitering.

Lily Stewart, a University of Georgia student, was arrested on March 23, 2025, on charges of obstruction of a law enforcement officer and loitering/prowling.
This marks her second arrest in March, following her March 8 speeding arrest, which went viral due to her smiling mugshot.
Stewart was released later that morning after posting a $4,000 bond, though details about the circumstances of the latest arrest remain unclear.
Her viral fame has brought her significant social media attention, including thousands of new followers and a mix of humorous and inappropriate messages.
Stewart has expressed a desire to move on from the attention and avoid further legal trouble, despite the ongoing public and media interest.
