Michael Douglas's Son Arrested With Crystal Meth

Last night TMZ reported that Cameron Douglas (spawn of Michael) was arrested in NYC for "possession of methamphetamines with the intent to distribute." Indeed, the Post later reported that the 30-year-old was busted by a DEA task force at the Gansevoort Hotel—and it turned out he was holding around a half-a-pound of crystal meth. They also believe he already sold $18,000 worth (it goes for $80/gram). This isn't the first time Douglas has been busted, either; in 2007 he was charged "with felony possession of a controlled substance after cops found a syringe with liquid cocaine in a car he was in."

After Page Six alluded to The Gansevoort Hotel staff as being just a tad anti-semitic, the hotel retorted saying that the incident on New Year's Eve that led to the allegation was a misunderstanding. Their side of the story includes having to kick out a yarmulke-less (and apparently racist) "ill-behaved boyfriend of a member of Kid ['I love Jewish people'] Rock's PR team." Today Grub Street asked "which member of Kid Rock’s PR team brought in this ruffian," saying they were "not at all surprised that it involves Kid Rock."
