If we were named after a potato, we might want to escape by gargling the glass dick, too. According to WENN:
Troubled actress Tatum O'Neal has been arrested for buying crack from a drug dealer on the streets of New York.
The Oscar-winning former child star – who chronicled her recovery from a heroin addiction in her 2004 book A Paper Life – was spotted by a narcotics team exchanging money with a man three blocks from her home in the Big Apple.
The actress, daughter of actor Ryan O'Neal, initially told cops she was "doing research for a part", according to a police source. But, after authorities searched her and found two bags of drugs and a crack pipe, she changed her story, the source adds.
According to the New York Daily News, she pleaded with cops: "I've been clean for a long time. Today was the first time I was relapsing, but you guys saved me! Can you let me go?"
The Paper Moon star, 44, was charged with seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, a misdemeanour.
We're pretty sure that "research for a role" only works when you go to a $20,000/week rehabilitation facility. Not purchasing a baggie of crack on the street. At this point, we'll have Robert Downey Jr. claiming that his 25 years of drug addiction was just research for Less Than Zero. Even though it technically happened after he filmed that movie. It's called post-grad research, people,.
