Tawny Kitaen, former video vixen and one-time castmember of The Surreal Life, was arrested in New Port Beach, CA yesterday on charges of driving while under the influence. As you may recall, Kitaen was arrested back in 2002 for assaulting her then-husband (major league baseball player) Chuck Finle and in 2006 she was arrested for possession of 15 grams of cocaine … now Kitaen can add drunk driving to her growing list of crimes:
Newport Beach PD tells TMZ that former actress and Whitesnake music video vixen Tawny Kitaen was arrested in Newport Beach, Calif. today for suspicion of driving under the influence. Kitaen was arrested at about 3:00 PM Saturday when officers suspected she had been driving her Range Rover under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Kitaen was released after posting $2,500 bail.
Paging Dr. Drew Pinksy … it looks like we’ve got another celeb with addiction problems that you can exploit for financial gain on another season of your VH1 reality TV series Celebrity Rehab. If I remember correctly, Tawny was quite a pistol during her season of The Surreal Life … it seemed at the time that she had a better handle on her demons … I suppose that assumption was incorrect. While I’m glad she was arrested and therefore taken off the streets it’s unfortunate that she’s already free to put other people’s lives in danger again. If convicted, I hope she is put somewhere where she can really get help for her problems … and is kept away from innocent drivers on the streets.

Tawny was already on Celebrity Rehab…I guess she needs another stint???
Tawny was on last season of Celebrity Rehab.
i thought tawny was on celebrity rehab. guess it didn’t work for her……….
lol she has already been on celebrity rehab. she said she was not suffering from addiction at that particular time (she was a former addict). she noted, however, that everyone needs rehab to remind them why and how to stay sober. she continuously denied being an addict. hmm.
Okay… since I purposely haven’t had cable in QUITE a LONG time… the last time I remember seeing her is when she was still married to the Whitesnake singer – LOL. Man, she looks ROUGH. (compared to back then).
