She’s guilty of stealing their hearts!

The internet is swooning over a Georgia sorority girl whose “hot mugshot” went viral after her arrest for speeding —  with fans offering to pay her bail and one gushing, “They done locked up Miss America!”

“Whatever she did my heart says she’s innocent,” one Facebook user wrote under a post of Alpha Chi sorority member Lily Stewart’s mugshot.

“How much is her bail? I’ll pay it,” another quipped on X — while a third wondered,  “Is her phone number in the [police] report?” 

Stewart, a student at the University of Georgia in Athens, was busted March 8 for speeding over the “maximum limits” and faces a fine of up to $1,000,  according to a post by The Georgia Gazette, shared by GAFollowers.

The college student’s flawless mugshot — which features her with a bright smile,  spotless makeup and not a hair out of place —  drew both praise and jokes about her Little-Miss-Perfect appearance.

“Must have been a sale at lululemon,” one social media user quipped.

“Your honor, she was just trying to get to brunch for bottomless mimosas,” another  teased.

Others mock-pleaded her innocence, proclaiming, “Your honor she was on the way to rescue my cat from a burning tree.”

And some simply cheered her ability to take a great photo — even while in police custody.

“This is the way to take a mugshot. Go girl!” one person wrote. Another added: “She ate this mugshot up [not gonna lie].”

Stewart, for her part, appeared to acknowledge the bonkers nature of the situation by sharing some of the best jokes made about her arrest, writing on TikTok, “some of my favorite/unhinged comments on my mugshot.”The comment section of her TikTok page also gave a nod to the absurdity of glamorizing a run-in with the law — with some joking she was speeding “too fast for the haters”  and another quipping, “She was taking the fast lane to my heart.”

Stewart was arrested by the Georgia State Patrol, the Morgan County Sheriff’s Office told The Post.
