Los Angeles: A Hot Bed of Hot Mess
I don't know who came up with the terminology "Hot Mess" -- but I think it's great. It can describe anything from how Britney Spears looked when she was barefoot in that gas station to what kind of viscous fluid Amy Winehouse leaves behind when she blows her nose. Lucky for us here in Los Angeles, there is always a chance you might run into one of these trainwrecks. Or, even just a wannabe.
Before?
There’s really no such thing as a “before” picture of Bai Ling…
Stop, Mess!
Bai Ling was arrested at lax for stealing batteries and a magazine. We’re all at our worst when we’re at the airport, but this is pretty bad. Even for a mug shot. I think she probably needs a lesson from LiLo on How To Take a Great Mugshot. Or, maybe she needs a guidespot guide! I always need ideas.
Careful, the magazines are not free.

Really, Bai ought to have been arrested for this showing…then that messunderstanding at LAX never would have happened.

This album art from …Baby One More Time is truly adorable. It looks like a senior portrait. You know “Make a fist and ease it under your chin. Now tilt your head. Perfect! Everyone will always remember how you loved to lay down in fields!”
Only Britney Spears could make me long for the days of pigtails and Catholic school girl skirts.
Britney is always fiending for a frappuccino. So the ’bucks in Brentwood is a good place for Spears spotting.

Class Act
Barefoot in a gas station restroom? It doesn’t get much classier than that, Brit. The cutoffs are just the icing on the cake.
Britney hungry! McNuggets!!

The Fug girls do a pretty good job of snarking on clothes without snarking on celebrities. It’s precious.
Even celebrities get gas. No doubt, these girls get it more than others.

Before
I don’t know what happened to poor Amy Winehouse. I mean, I’m not sure how she went from curvaceous cutie to terrifying skeleton and I’m also not sure how she went from someone I’ve never heard to someone I very literally cannot avoid hearing about. I get it, you don’t want to go to rehab…
After
I’m no stranger to being caught without a shirt. Luckily there aren’t paps following me around 24/7. Poor Amy. I especially love that she has a rosary caught in her bra strap.
Maybe Amy Winehouse will be allowed out of the country to go to the Grammy’s next year. Get your tickets now!

Remember when Lindsey Lohan was classy and gorgeous? Oh, me either, but here’s proof!
"WTF?"
“I can’t believe you arrested me!”
“How did you expect me to know which way to go on the freeway? I was totally stoned!”

Now that I know about it, this probably is not the hot celeb club anymore, but there were many messes to encounter at this Hollywood hotspot once upon a time 3 months ago.
