I have a feeling 2008 will be the year of major-league celebrity trainwrecks. Britney kick-started it in style with her police standoff and taking one of her kids hostage, now there's talk of rapper Eminem spiraling out of control, Amy Winehouse has been stirring things up in Britain and now another British hottie, troublemaker Sugarbabes member Amelle Barrabah is taking the crazy to another level altogether. This 23 year-old singer is no stranger to controversy, and has been in a string of highly-publicized scandals in the past.
Last year, her boyfriend Freddie Fuller was accused
of attempting to rape Amelle's 20 year-old sister Samiya, only to be cleared of all charges and return to Amelle's loving arms a few months later. In April last year, Amelle was arrested for allegedly assaulting an 18-year-old girl in a bar in Surrey. Then on Christmas Eve last year her boyfriend was attacked with a machete, almost lost his arm and was left for dead in front of a pub. And finally, Amelle was arrested earlier today for allegedly vandalizing a woman's car. The woman in question was a neighbor of her sister's and insiders claim that there had been tensions between her and Amelle's families for a long time. "There's been needle between the two families and on Thursday it hit boiling point. There was shouting and a girl called police, who got there
about 10.45am. Amelle was shaking as officers carted her off" says a source.
"A 23-year-old woman from London was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage and public order offenses. She has been bailed to appear at Aldershot police station on February 21" reads an official police statement. Amelle was sprung from jail, but it seems that there's no end in sight for her troubles, as she has to return and face more police questioning. In the meantime, rumors have started going round about troublemaker Amelle being in danger of losing her place in the band she has so many times exposed to scandal and controversy. So far, her band mates Heidi Range and Keisha Buchanan have stood by her, but this new arrest may really prove to be the proverbial straw. Stay tuned and we'll bring you all the hot news about Amelle's latest troubles.
