American singer-songwriter Beth Ditto - frontwoman of indie-rockers Gossip - has been arrested in Portland, in what is probably the funniest story of the week.
The controversial star was reportedly taken away from a bar in Portland, Oregon, at 2am, after causing a load of trouble with her entourage, who were all drunk and rowdy. The event was documented by a user of Reddit, who was allegedly drinking in the same bar as her.
Strangely enough, it was only after she was kicked out of the bar - which she’d been trashing - that she was arrested, after police saw her walking through the street with no shoes or purse shouting ‘Obama! Obama!’ - just like our favourite cartoon dad Randy, who did the same on South Park.
Possibly the funniest part of the story is the Reddit user's account of the story - check it out:
“I had no idea who this girl was before I went out tonight. By 1:30 Beth was completely blackout drunk challenging people to fights. My friends and I headed over to the Bungalow from the Alibi only to be met with Beth's belligerent asshole posse. We got our drinks and went out to the back, only to hear her and her friends breaking shit. Obviously I started laughing from the shenanigans.
“‘Wot, are you trying to say you're smarter than me?’ (horrible fake British accent). ‘My friends and I are trying to enjoy our drinks. Please leave us alone.’ ‘DO YEW KNOW WHO UR TALKIN' TO? GOOGLE ME!’
“Fifteen minutes later she was arrested for being a complete fucking cunt. The bartender called the police because she kicked him in balls. Beth Ditto, apparently you live in Portland. Go fuck yourself.”
Ditto now faces a court date, and could be given a reported six months in prison following the ordeal, though we doubt she’ll face time inside. You can check out her booking information here - check the mugshot!
