Blac Chyna: Busted For Possession of Ecstasy, Xanax

As you may have heard, Blac Chyna was arrested at Austin International Airport over the weekend. Early reports had the model and girlfriend of Rob Kardashian getting arrested for being drunk and disorderly at an airport bar. Now, it seems that Blac did indeed make a scene, but that was just the beginning of her legal trouble. TMZ is reporting that when cops searched Blac, they discovered two white pills with “glittery gold flakes” in a sunglasses case. The pills were field tested and came back positive for MDMA, also known as Ecstasy. Blac told police that she had taken Xanax, but it’s not known if she was in possession of the drug, or if she had a prescription. When asked if she had been drinking, Blac reportedly responded, “Of course,” and then broke down crying. Witnesses say the trouble started when a bartender refused to serve Blac the quantity of liquor that she was demanding. She became “verbally aggressive,” and an onlooker called the cops. According to the police report, Blac was “passively resistive” with the arresting officers, going limp and refusing to walk when they attempted to remove her from the scene. She wasn’t in custody long, as Rob Kardashian drove 1,377 miles  from LA to Austin to bail his new girlfriend out. Unfortunately for Blac, it sounds like her legal troubles are just beginning.

Vanessa Hudgens Dedicates These Amazing Grease: Live Performances to Her Father

God bless you, Vanessa Hudgens. The former High School Musical star shared very sad news with fans just hours before taking to the stage as Rizzo in Grease: Live on Fox last night: her dad passed away from cancer . Vanessa Hudgens – “Look at Me I’m Sandra Dee” Hudgens posted a message on Twitter about her father’s death, adding that she would do the show “in his honor” that evening. And it’s very safe to say that Hudgens made her late parent proud, most notably with two standout performances. As Rizzo, Hudgens was tasked with two solos, the first of which (above) featured her making fun of Julianne Hough’s very pure and innocent main character. The second, “There Are Worse Things I Could Do,” was an emotional ballad that gave us a look inside Rizzo herself: Vanessa Hudgens – “There Are Worse Things I Could Do” The performances are impressive enough on their own (heck, Anna Kendrick wants to have sex with Hudgens as a result)… but they’re made even more so when you consider what Hudgens was going through at the time. “Imagine you had Vanessa Hudgens’ day, and doing that. What a superhero. In total awe,” Tweeted Broadway star Lin-Manuel Miranda in response. And he was far from alone in his praise: Austin Butler : WOW @VanessaHudgens singing ‘Worst Things’ had me in tears. Just brilliant. Demi Lovato : My prayers are with @VanessaHudgens today.. You are one strong, and admirable woman. Ashley Tisdale : I wouldn’t expect anything less @VanessaHudgens is killing it! So proud of my girl. And after all the hand-jiving and grease lightnings were over and done with, Fox concluded its three-hour performance with a dedication to Hudgens’ father, Greg. Sad, but perfect, right? Here’s a look at the most memorable moments from a great production: View Slideshow: Grease Live: The Best, Most GIF-Tastic Moments!
