Hollywood Scandals and Gossip

Look out, Kamari Fulbright, you have a bit of company for this year's Best Act of Violence Against a Boyfriend Award.

Elyse Sewell - from the first season of America's Next Top Model - and her boyfriend, Marty Crandall from The Shins, were arrested on Friday night for domestic abuse.

Elyse Sewell documented the stunning development on her blog:

On the drive home from Albuquerque to Portland, my ex-boyfriend got s-itfaced and roughed me up in a Sacramento hotel. I escaped from the room through a blitzkrieg of violence and talked to hotel security, who called the fuzz.

Because he had a bite mark, inflicted in self-defense, on his arm, Marty told the police to PRESS CHARGES OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AGAINST ME. Now I am a felon. Jailors. America's Next Top Model fans, all. As the warden took pics of my bloody knuckles for evidence (!!!! evidence!), he quipped, "So there goes that hand modeling job, huh? What's Tyra going to say about this?"

And here is how I was summoned from the holding cell for a strip-search, complete with a thorough plumbing of the boodissy: "Hey, Supermodel! Git over here!"

Elyse Sewell was bailed out, but Martin Crandall remains in jail; both must stick around Sacramento until their court hearing tomorrow.

We can't say who is at fault here, but we can appreciate anyone that uses the words "blitzkrieg" and "fuzz" in an account of events such as this.

Your quasi crucification pictures are so yesterday's beauty queen news!

Say hello to Kumari Fulbright. The Arizona law student was crowned Miss Pima County in 2005 and Miss Desert Sun in 2006.

The pageant contestant also competed for Miss Arizona both those years - and was recently arrested for torturing and kidnapping her boyfriend.

Kumari Fulbright was arrested for holding her boyfriend captive and threatening to murder him. In her defense, the dude did leave the toilet seat up quite often and insisted on watching SportsCenter instead of Gossip Girl.

Last month, Kumari Fulbright and three men reportedly robbed her 24-year-old boyfriend. But that wasn't nearly enough for them:

They kept the man captive for 10 hours at two different Arizona residences, with court documents stating that Kumari bit him several times, stuck a knife near his ear and threatened to kill him while pointing a gun in his direction.

Eventually, the victim grabbed for her gun, set it off and managed to escape during the fray. There's really nothing to add to this astounding news, except to say: your move, Tara Conner!

It never stops. The new Miss Missouri USA, Candice Crawford, was recently cited in Columbia, Mo., as a minor in possession of alcohol.

Somewhere, fellow embattled beauty queens Tara Conner, Katie Blair, Ingrid Marie Rivera, Amy Polumbo, Valerie Begue and Katie Rees are smiling.

And quite possibly getting their drink on!

Candice Crawford, a junior and broadcast journalism major at the University of Missouri-Columbia, is the sister of Gossip Girl star Chace Crawford.

With her December, 2007 citation for underage possession of alcohol, 20-year-old Candice Crawford became the latest beauty queen to make celebrity gossip news.

The Columbia Missourian's police blotter reads simply:

Candice Crawford, 20, was cited for suspicion of minor in possession at 12:08 a.m. March 16 at Tonic in the 100 block of South Ninth Street.

Mischa Barton is actually not the worst example of drunk driving this week.

Jim Leyritz, a member of the New York Yankees championship teams in the 1990s, is being held at Broward County Jail in Florida, after being an arrest for DUI and vehicular homicide.

WPLG-TV and TMZ report that, according to police, Leyritz was driving a Ford SUV that crashed into another vehicle in downtown Fort Lauderdale early this morning.

The other car rolled, the female driver was ejected and she later died of injuries sustained in the crash. Jim Leyritz was booked at 4:30 AM on two charges of DUI and is being held on $11,000 bond.

For this staff writer of The Hollywood Gossip - along with numerous other baseball fans - Jim Leyritz is best known for twirling his bat after every pitch, as well as slamming the dramatic, game-tying, three-run home run against the Atlanta Braves in Game 4 of the 1996 World Series.

Former star of The OC Mischa Barton was arrested for DUI, possession of illegal narcotics and driving without a valid license early this morning.

The frail, 21-year-old actress was pulled over early this morning around 3:00 a.m. as she was driving in West Hollywood, Calif., and is still in custody.

Mischa Barton is being held on $10,000 bail. No word on what her BAC was, but seeing as she weighs about 75 pounds, one drink would probably get her smashed.

The arrest of the actress was first reported by Hollyscoop.com. Mischa Barton was under the influence and driving a white Range Rover without a license.

Soon enough, we'll have the newest, drunkest addition to our gallery of celebrity mug shots, which already includes Mischa's skinny BFF, Nicole Richie.

Danielle Fishel is best known for starring in the wet dreams of many young men during her time as Topanga on Boy Meets World.

Earlier this week, however, the young actress met the inside of a jail cell: she was arrested for drunk driving early Friday morning. Jessica Sierra must be so proud.

Reportedly, a car Fishel was in was pulled over in Newport Beach around 5 a.m. The former child star was released shortly thereafter, although we presume she has a lot of explaining to do to Mr. Feeny now.

This isn't the first mistake Danielle Fishel has ever made: in 1999, she dated Lance Bass. He later admitted he was gay.

Amy Winehouse has been arrested and taken into custody in connection with an alleged plan to derail a criminal case against her husband, Blake Fielder-Civil.

"A 24-year-old woman has been arrested by appointment at an East London police station," a police spokeswoman said, without naming Amy Winehouse.

"[The woman] is currently in custody. The arrest was in connection with an investigation into perverting the course of justice."

Amy Winehouse's U.S. representative confirmed the singer's arrest, saying: "I can confirm that she did go in voluntarily to be interviewed and was placed under arrest, as is common practice in the U.K., before being questioned."

He is currently in jail awaiting trial. As is British custom, police do not publicly name people who are arrested - only if they are later charged with a crime.

Winehouse was forced to give fingerprints and a saliva swab to police, as "any person arrested is required to give both DNA and fingerprints," the police said.

Another source denied a recent News of the World report that Amy Winehouse and Blake Fielder-Civil have a suicide pact if they both are put behind bars.
