With a local Fox news crew on hand to document her humiliation, former Miss Russia Anna Malova was arrested Tuesday afternoon after allegedly using stolen perscription sheets to buy 85 Vicodin pills from a West Village pharmacy. Milova—fashionably attired in a black fur-lined coat and skinny jeans, toting a Burberry plaid umbrella—told a Fox 5 reporter she didn't know why she was being arrested, and had no answer to the reporter's maudlin follow-up question: "What do you tell little girls who look up to beauty queens like you?" more ›

West Chelsea can do no right, as now Miss USA Tara Conner is getting raked over the coals over her partying. Yesterday, TMZ reported pageant officials and NBC met to discuss Conner's status as Miss USA, given "alleged incidents of her inappropriate behavior, including her conduct at New York City bars."
