"THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT STINKING GIRLS ON A HOT BOYS (AND SMEXY ELLEN) SHOW."
With thanks to the wank_report mouse:
So Katie Cassidy, an actress who plays one of Supernatural's two new female characters, got busted for underage drinking, and lied to the arresting officer about her name and date of birth (instead claiming to be 23-year-old Taylor Cole, a guest star from the first season of s1). Her mother's quoted response to this is to ask "what can be done" because her daughter is a "high-profile" actress who "[doesn't] have time to come back to court". It's posted with some glee to perezhilton and thesmokinggun, but, alas, the worst is yet to come.
potthead (of the Jensen's ex-girlfriend is a dirty dirty whore wank) posts it to her community supernatural_tv here, where immediately there's an orgy of stupid not seen... er... since RDR books. Some choice threads include this one, but here are some standalone quotes from the three pages of comments:
We usually didn't have to worry about embarrassing news stories when it was just Jared and Jensen on the show, but this is news and it's worthy of discussion, so here it is! - potthead (original post)
If this is true? she's despicable. Not for getting drunk underage, that's just stupid, especially when you've got good jobs going. Her giving another actresses name and DOB makes her lower than the lowest pond scum. - allzugern (comment)
I honestly don't like this sort of posts. We are not fandom_wank, after all. I am very far from being a fan of Katie Cassidy, in fact, I want her written out of the show as soon as humanly possible, but blowing this sort of thing out of proportion smacks of tabloid sensationalism. I doubt Kripke and Co. will see it so much as a PR nightmare as it would be an annoying blip in their radars. - ladymirth (comment)
Think about it, if Jared or Jensen got nailed for the same thing at 19, they would have been honest, apologetic to the officer (and everyone) and very humble. Thats the big difference.
God, I hope this story is true, because its just the best example of why there should be a spay & neuter program for many celeb families! - kavousi (check out the comment for kavousi's argument with the misogyny_fairy)
Ugh and Supernatural had such a great track record of the actors NOT getting into this kind of trouble. Way to go. This is definitely not the kind of attention Supernatural needs. I mean I drank underage but I'm not an actor so I didn't have to worry about how it could reflect on other people like this. Very stupid of her to lie about it and use another actress's name like this. Her mother's comment is even more disgusting to me though, I'm so sick of seeing actors get the easier treatment because of who they are. - mark_and_roger (comment)
Way to go Dawn Ostroff, you just HAD to have "kick-ass" girls on Supernatural 'cause the show just needed THIS SO much! - dairwendan (comment)
I keep hoping
that one of the guys will kill her off in the show... - cattraine (cattraine)
So why doesn't the fact that she did something really mean or bitchy, which is defined by the American Heritage Dictionary Fourth Edition as Malicious, spiteful, or overbearing, qualify her as a bitch, stupidity aside? - jaeliyah (comment)
Then it hits the private journals, of which there are literally dozens, but I picked my favourite:
anteka, who, you may remember, we are "blessed" to have, posts:
You dumb shit.
What pisses me off the most is that she thought saying she was some hot-shot Hollywood actress would get her off. Honey, a little bit of advice. You're a nobody. If I didn't watch Supernatural I wouldn't have known who the fuck you were.
The comments are also things of beauty and stupidity, including:
"THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT STINKING GIRLS ON A HOT BOYS (AND SMEXY ELLEN) SHOW." - senor_coconut_1, here
"Seeing as both she and her mother were acting like idiots, I'm thinking there's something in their water. Probably vodka, since I don't think they make entitlement as an additive." - msgwenniepennie, here
"From what I hear Jensen and Jared have as little to do with her as possible. Apparently she's quite the diva." - anteka, who knows all
"What I give a crap about is that she was drunk in a car driven by another drunken person and not only did she lie, and *snort* said she is a 'high profile actress' (excuse me: ROFLMFAO x2) she told them the name of the ONLY female actress whose character's a love interest in Supernatural that everybody actually likes and is hoping to see again. Fangirls everywhere must be facepalming so hard they're getting marks." - ladydeadlock, here
"Of all people to pretend to be, pick the guest start that people liked a lot better than you. Good one KC, good one. Like I didn't think you were retarded enough to begin with, let's add a few more reasons for me to think you suck total ass. See? That's it. She's officially been demoted back down to Pantene. Forever." - mistojen, here
It's still spreading, from defriendings and accusations of misogyny to plain old requests for the wank to stop, but ileliberte sums it up best:
"Oh my god! She got drunk while under 21!! The HORROR!!1!1! This will drag Supernatural's name THROUGH THE MUD because being drunk while not driving is so very DANGEROUS!!!!! While drunk she panicked and used the name of someone older, how dare she!!!! And OMG doesn't it just go to show there should never have been any girls on this show!!! St. Jared and St. Jensen obviously never did anything even remotely stupid when they were 20!!!eleventy!"
