After getting arrested yesterday for shoplifting, Bai Ling is now blaming her life of crime on a bad break-up.
The actress (?), 37 (?), claims she was dealing with the “huge problem of breaking up [before] Valentine’s Day” when she decided to steal two celebrity magazines and a pack of batteries (a $16 value) from a gift shop at L.A.’s LAX airport yesterday.
Ah, dude, if you’re gonna steal, steal big — at LEAST an “I Heart L.A.” t-shirt and a bottled water (which is at least $16 itself at the airport).
Bai explained to E! that she took a five-finger discount because: “Wrong boyfriend.”
Um, okay. She also expressed regret — via an acid trip-induced haiku — on her personal blog yesterday:
“I am in Albuquerque with my heart feeling sad, and my emotions are running through me like a wild river, tears come from the lake of my heart hurt my eyes. Life happens to you either you liked it or not, sometimes I feel you have to be so brave to stand in front of the World, and just hope that people will have a tender heart toward you.”
That makes TOTAL sense! I think we can all learn from her wisdom. Let’s use the Bai Ling Guide to Regret from now on, shall we? Cut someone off in traffic, we’ll shrug, “Wrong boyfriend.” Someone screams at you for cutting in line at the grocery store, just sigh, “Tears come from the lake of my heart hurt my eyes.”
Seriously, how can anyone argue with that?

Excuses, excuses.
This made me cackle with
evil delight when I read
that she was in some
sort of trouble. I’m
really, really evil.
I know.
I like how you addressed
her as actress (?), 37 (?).

I’m sorry, but nothing can overshadow Brit Brit stealing a lighter right in front of the glare of a thousand pap cameras clicking away as her mind disintegrates into cheeto stained puddles on a gas station floor.

WTF! Steal a bottle of tequila at least! That would make more sense.

Well in all fairness to her, she’s also batshit crazy in Mandarin or Cantonese or whatever her first language is, so she’s a second language up on me.
I have adopted ‘wrong boyfriend’ as my personal mantra.
Javelin and Jenn F — i tips me ‘at to yas, guv’naaaaaas.
