Jason Wahler: I'm Not at all Racist or Homophobic
Former Laguna Beach star Jason Wahler speaks out about his April arrest (his fourth in nine months) for trespassing and assault in which Wahler exposed himself as a racist bigot:
"I'm embarrassed as hell, but I really do not remember my arrests. They're blackouts. And that's scary. In Seattle, the guy I allegedly called that (racist name) wasn't even black. I'm not at all racist or homophobic. I was just completely obliterated. My parents were devastated. They kept pushing for me to get help, but I still didn't think I had a drinking problem - until I went home. When I was away from L.A., sober, not surrounded with random people, I finally realised, 'I'm killing myself.'"

I am very surprised that Andy bothered to include anything on this guy on his site. This is trivial beyond belief. I would think (and hope) that 99 out of 100 of Andy's readers have no idea who this guy is (unfortunately I do because I used to read Perez Hilton before tiring of it).

Wow, the boy is delusional. He believes himself to be a celebrity, rather than a freak by-product of pop culture, and then he treats his addiction as a product of his acquaintances and geography. Over/under 3 months on another arrest.

That's it, blame L.A. Everybody else does.

Hey, back off California haters.
Every time I hear the words "Hollywood liberal" and "San Francisco values", I just want to dictate a letter to my personal assistant or call my dancer/actor/designer/lawyer. And I'd follow through on my outrage too, if I wasn't late for yoga.
