Dizzy Blonde
Dynasty cutie pie Heather Locklear has had yet another automobile related misfortune. The first time was shortly after her separation from Richie Sambora. That was a rough time for Heather. Her bestest buddy at the time, Denise Skanky Richards, had started seeing Richie, and set her malicious little heart on splitting the pair up. So, allegedly, Denise left some incriminating e mails on Richie's computer - where Heather was sure to find them. Sure enough she did, and the shit hit the fan!
sober companions & other fiendish friends
Denise started living with Richie, and Heather started hitting the bottle, or something. Heather had an on and off battle with booze in secret for years. She'd even hired 'sober companions' to make sure that she didn't slip, and tried to detox on the sly by renting out hotel rooms. When her marriage went tits up it prove to be much too much. Eventually a disoriented Heather wound up stopping traffic in the middle of a California freeway when she parked her car in the middle of the road and refused to budge!
knowing me knowing you
Since Heather seemed like such a sweet California girl type people were shocked. They were soon to be further shocked as more stories of Heather's boozing emerged. After one road trip Richie came home to his Thousand Oaks residence to find Heather out cold. She had to go to the hospital over that one. The official story was either exhaustion or dehydration. Later, when Richie had some kind of drunken driving infraction while his child (and girlfriend) were in the car Heather let him have it. Richie simply reminded her that she might have as easily been the one in that position and that shut her up.
a funny thing happened on the way from the country club
Now TMZ is reporting that Locklear has had more car trouble. Last Saturday the actress was arrested for hit and run. It seems that a road sign in her neighborhood - near North Ranch Country Club in Westlake Village, CA., got knocked over when some careless driver ran the curb and crashed into it. The local neighborhood watch got on the blower to the cops and they came out to have a look see.
Heather gets cited
Investigators found that a road sign had indeed been knocked over and there were signs that a car had jumped the curb. Well somehow the local authorities thought of Locklear, and moseyed on over to her place to check out her car. Heather's black BMW had damages that matched the accident scene, so the police wasted no time in arresting her - TJ Hooker style. Since it was a misdemeanor Locklear was cited and released.
wiggle room
Meanwhile Locklear's rep is in high spin, and telling everyone that they shouldn't jump to conclusions because they can't be sure that Heather was the one driving. I suppose that was the whole point of fleeing the scene of the crime. At least Heather's PR people aren't denying that it was her car. Look for Dr. Drew to take a run at Heather some time soon.
