Tawny Kitaen Arrested For DUI

NEWPORT BEACH, California — Police in California say former actress Tawny Kitaen has been arrested for investigation of driving under the influence.

Newport Beach police Sgt. Shontel Sherwood says Kitaen was arrested at about 3 p.m. 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.

William Briggs, an attorney who has previously represented Kitaen, did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

The 48-year-old Kitaen recently appeared on the VH1 reality show "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew."

She first found fame appearing in 1980s music videos for future husband David Coverdale's band Whitesnake. She also played the bride-to-be of Tom Hanks' character in the 1984 film "Bachelor Party."

Hey, I remember this lady. LOLOL. Dancing around on the hood of a car in a music video. That's some claim to fame. And I remember all of the guys gushing constantly about her and how she was "all that" and more.

Hey guys, you still think she's "all that" and more? Hey guys, you still wanna do all of those fantasies with her? C'mon now, you gotta eat what you shoot!

She looks like she's aged about 40 years since that video. That must have been one hard life.

[TampaStephie]

Shocking.

[Kremfresch]

She should have stuck to writhing sensuously on the hood, instead of driving.

[TracyLouWho]

Must still be possessed from that ouija board in "Witchboard"

[lisaman]

Why so mean? Some of the posts on here are down right hateful! I think it is sad that someone with so much to offer has allowed drugs and alcohol to rule her life. Too bad she never met someone she cared about enough to change. She had children with Chuck Finley and yet she couldn't even change for them.

[cydRN]

"So much to offer"?? Seriously? She's a pathetic, washed up never-was.

[lisaman]

And what are you?

[stepper]

Apparently she has a quite a long curriculum vitae if a prior arrest for beating up her husband (former MLB pitcher Chuck Finley) no longer warrants mentioning.

that's what happens when you allow yourself to be a doormat for OJ Simpson and the like

[montecarlo408]

Even this is OJ's fault? The man's in jail, you got what you wanted. Can't you let it go? I think David Coverdale wasn't exactly saint material, either.

WOW! I used to think Tawny was SO HOTT! Now she is SO NOT!

[doublels]

Look what doing drugs has done to her. She was so beautiful & would have been a beautiful 48 year old woman if not for the self destructive life style.

[JohnFromCensornati]

Time has not been kind to her.

[cungar]

She's a 48 year old alcoholic. Do you expect her to look like she did in the Whitesnake video?

[jsgaetano]

It was more like drugs & booze... not time.

[careygranite]

i think she did a stint on the second round of WKRP. replacing that blonde chick sorta.

man, was she hot in her day. to me anyway. what a face. and that smile.

i dont have a problem with pp being under the influence - just dont drive n/t.

[tellmelies]

My wish is that for all addicts and/ or alcoholics is that they change their perspective, if they can and choose to get better. It is a choice and they don't think being sober is better.... But it is. It's complicated, but it's your life so find something to believe in. And there are things to believe in that don't tell you to believe in their god. Oh and have a nice day.

[RustNeverSleeps]

Tawny has done some hard living.
