Reese Witherspoon Arrest Video Doesn't Disappoint

By: Sara

When you are drunk and arguing...YOU think you make sense, but nobody else does. Seeing video footage of your drunken feistiness only brings that point home. That is why Reese Witherspoon is not loving life right now. The dash cam video of her arrest from last month has hit the internet, and it is filled with some classic quotes. Reese drops lines like, "I'm a U.S. citizen. I am allowed to stand on American ground and ask any questions I want to ask."...and "I'm obstructing your justice? Really? I'm being anti-American? Wow...interesting." At one point, Witherspoon even lies to the cop and tells him she is pregnant. Reese's husband Jim Toth is already in cuffs during the clip, and by the end of the video he totally tries to distance himself from anything she has said.

OF COURSE the video shows her playing the fame card. She asks the officer, "Do you know my name?" and says "You're about to find out who I am." I love that the officer didn't care, and treated her like any other argumentative person. For all her trouble, Reese is only going to have to pay a $213 fine after entering a plea of no contest for disorderly conduct on Thursday.
