Boardwalk Empire's resident T&A of the shoehorned variety got arrested yesterday for, well, going above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to embodying a character. And by that I mean getting so drunk she fell over, lopped out a boob and physically attacked a model. The model in question was "Samantha Swetra of MTV's The City". The venue was some hotel in Manhattan, and Lindsay Lohan was thrown in for good measure. Sure why not.
The New York Daily News reports: "One insider says de la Huerta, who plays Nucky Thompson’s hot-tempered girlfriend Lucy Danziger in the HBO series, approached Swetra's table 'after 3 a.m.' where she was with a group of friends that included Lindsay Lohan (who was staying at the hotel that night). Swetra and de la Huerta had not met before Sunday, a second source tells us, but that didn’t stop the NYC-born actress from flirting with one of Swetra's male pals. That's when, our first source adds, de la Huerta suddenly lost her footing and went crashing into an adjacent table. After taking in the unexpected pratfall - which, our source adds, resulted in one of de la Huerta's breasts 'hanging out of her dress'- an amused Swetra yelled out 'triple axel!' The gibe sent de la Huerta into a rage and she threw a drink glass at Swetra's leg and took a swing at the model's face, the source says. De la Huerta's aim is apparently as good as her acting on Boardwalk Empire. According to our source, the actress' fist connected squarely with Swetra's lips and nose. The glass, which shattered, also did some damage. 'Blood was dripping down [Swetra's] leg,' the source tells us. 'Lindsay was pulling shards of glass off of it'."
Apologies, I'm having trouble with the line: "De la Huerta's aim is apparently as good as her acting on Boardwalk Empire. According to our source, the actress' fist connected squarely with Swetra's lips and nose"... Are they saying she's a good actress? What acting? If her aim was as good as her acting her first would've connected squarely with Lindsay Lohan's omnipresent side boob.
Naturally, the police were called, Paz was arrested and Swetra is pressing charges.
