Coachella: Indie music festival or giant celebrity get-together?
Judging from the photos, this year’s Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival was a who’s who of young Hollywood. The famous faces included the Hilton sisters, Nicole Richie, Sienna Miller, Kelly Osbourne, Shia LaBeouf and Jared Leto. Richie flaunted her healthy new Mom lifestyle, drinking only water, while unreformed party girls Osbourne and Miller were a dangerous duo. Pics show the pair arm in arm, sporting trademark puzzling outfits and big, ridiculous sunnies.
However, it was the less fresh-faced stars that made the news. CSI’s Gary Dourdan was spotted, and soon after the actor had an unfortunate run-in with the law. Dourdan was found asleep in his car at five in the morning in the nearby town of Palm Springs. He was then arrested and charged with suspicion of drug possession. What drugs were suspected, you ask? Practically everything–heroin, cocaine, ecstasy, and prescription pills.
The festival’s real scene stealer though was David Hasselhoff, who, in a sweaty tank top and jeans, looked like he was at a backyard barbecue. OK, even celebs can’t be camera-ready all the time, but the Hoff was looking rough, and nobody wants to see that. We can only imagine the bizarre exchanges he must have had that night while moving through the crowd of hipsters.
