Andy Dick is living up to his name, adding to the trend of celebs behaving badly. In the category of, “I can’t believe this is viral,” he is one of the most searched items today because he pulled down a teenage girl’s top.
Two points:
1. Yes, he was on drugs (probably always).
2. Yes, he looks creepy as hell in that mug shot.
I’ve included a picture of the arrest and a gallery of his photos so you can juxtapose the difference between his creepy burned-out b-celebrity mug shot, and the seemingly innocent character he used to play on NewsRadio.
The police statement said that 42 year old, “Grabbed [a 17 year old’s] tank top and bra and pulled them down and exposed her breasts.”
That’s living up to your last name!
