BUSTED! Howard Stern Sidekick Arrested for DUI!

Filed under: Z List

wenn-artie.jpg

You should never drink and drive.

You could spill some!

Or, in Artie Lange's case, you get arrested in New Jersey.

Law enforcement in NJ busted the comedian Friday afternoon after he got into a minor car accident and was suspect to be intoxicated.

Drunk before dinner time? Very classy!

    I feel bad for you Artie but WAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! Dum-ass!

    At least he can afford a driver so it's not too bad for him.



  2. 2

    Who?



  3. 3

    Poor little Artie. I love him



  4. 4

    he is the guy that kiss a gay porn star in the show it was awful



  5. 5

    So much for his clean and sober act. The guy needs rehab. Not his pseudo, half assed rehab schemes he goes through. It is hard to feel sorry for the guy since he knows he has a problem and refuses to go to a real rehab facility. Granted Howard Stern is the biggest enabler. I guess now that Artie has gone from the loveable guy to annoying who interrupts interviews and tries to make the show about him, Stern will now put his foot down and force him to get rehab or leave the show.



  6. 6

    Wow. Come up with the spill joke on your own did you? I've never heard that before.

    ASSHOLE.



  7. 7

    My Perezcious and this fat drunkard do NOT belong in a Separated at Birth article and that is so mean to say!



  8. 8

    Baha. Evilbeetgossip posted this hours ago. Oh, Perez.



  9. 9

    Where was helicopter Mike?



  10. 10

    drunk before lunch is more like it.
    love you man, but maybe it's time to hang up the towel…



  11. 11

    Re: female version of a hustler – no he didn't. He kissed Blue Iris, an 60 year old female porn star.



  12. 12

    I remember him at one time saying he was proud to be sober. Oh well….



  13. 13

    Um, the least of Artie's problems is drinking before dinner, Perez. I'd hedge a bet there wasn't just alcohol in his bloodstream.



  14. 14

    Fat slob.



  15. 15

    OMG! Artie SUCKS! Can't wait for Monday's show!



  16. 16

    So much for sobriety. Where was Captain Mike?



  17. 17

    He's disgusting and the most UNfunny "comedian" ever!



  18. 18

    good, he is such a pig



  19. 19

    At least Artie(And no one else for that matter)isn't dead!
    "Minor car accident"Artie?I'm dissapointed!
    I would have expected you to crash from the 10th floor of a parking garage onto a construction site!Somebody call the WAHHHHHHHHBulence!



  20. 20

    He sure does look like an alcoholic.
    ~www.jimastye.com~ get ur style on.

  24. 24

    STOP BEING A FAAAT SLOPPY DRUNK STUPID THATS HOW INNOCENT PEOPLE GET KILLED



  25. 25

    Damn art! He has been so good trying to clean himself up and he slipped! Good luck man!



  26. 26

    should have had his driver artie rules, fuck you perez



  27. 27

    All these celebs being arrested for DUI is not real news any more. Is there a week without one or two celebs getting caught DUI?



  28. 28

    Waaaaaa….I don't have a license.
    I guess my girlfriend who's probably an 11 will have to drive me around. Or maybe I'll do one hour of work to pay a driver for the year.

    But seriously, hope Artie is ok.
    Somewhere Joe Buck is s____ d___ with a huge smile on his face.



  29. 29

    Um, aren't these DUI celebs able to afford a driver, or are they too cheap?



  30. 30

    Love Artie Lang !!!
    Missed Howard and the gang this week.
    Artie you do need to get your shit together though
    no need to drink and drive with the bucks your making.



  31. 31

    I DETEST DRUNKS!
    .
    FUCKING SELFISH LOSERS WHO DON'T CARE IF THEY BRING ANYONE ELSE DOWN WITH THEM!
    .
    DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE!
    .
    let me say it again
    .



  32. 32

    I love Artie…I've loved Artie before he even joined Howard's team, but I am very disappointed that he endangered other people's lives. I'm sure he's driven while intoxicated more than once and it is very cruel of him to risk the lives of others.
    All I want for him, is to get sober and be healthy, happy and safe. It's one thing to risk your own life, but to endanger others is intolerable. Shame on you Artie.



  33. 33

    He's too fat to drink and drive!



  34. 34

    Lying sack of shit Artie! You are supposed to be CLEAN!



  35. 35

    Artie got arrested in my town, Toms River, NJ.. He was doing a special program at the Toms River Library tomorrow night.



  36. 36

    Wow - he's still alive??? Guy is one of the funniest story tellers alive, but he is in such bad shape & doin' the drugs/drink. Sadly he'll probably be dead soon.



  37. 37

    Howard's not going to be too happy



  38. 38

    DO
    .
    NOT
    .
    DRINK

    AND

    DRIVE!



  39. 39

    DUMBASS!



  40. 40

    awww I love him, glad no one was hurt though.



  41. 41

    Artie!! Nooo!! I effing looove him but he needs some serious help! its loong over due! I'm waiting to hear what else was in his bloodstream besides alcohol.. Get your shit together Artie! Your awesome but you could have killed someone!! Grrrr! Not cool!



  42. 42

    that's what happens with the stern show folks have way too much time off. they have been on vaca for 2 weeks now. I think they have something like 10 weeks off a year (must be nice). makes we want to drop my sirius subscription since they have had old god damn sam kinison on.

    oh artie. get it together man.

  43. MP says – reply to this


    43

    Disgusting. Get that trash out of my state.



  44. 44

    So does this mean Howie will get another 2 weeks off next week? When was the last time that Hack did a live show? Im sure hes gonna be all relevant with Michael Jackson talk 2 weeks after the fact.



  45. 45

    Poor Artie, this is 10 min from where I live. What cop would lock him up. Hey Perez, William should have finished the job!

  46. slip says – reply to this


    46

    Am I the only one who thinks its odd that he was driving an 09 Nissan Sentra? I thought I remember on the show him saying he had a benz? Until I see the mugshot I am going to call BS.

  49. 49

    FINALLY-PIECE OF SHIT!

    He'll do the usual 50 minutes



  50. 50

    What the fuck are you doing driving a SENTRA? My other question is how the fuck did this fat fuck fit in it????



  51. 51

    You fucking loser Artie! You know it's getting harder and harder to listen to you on the show. Straighten up and join the rest of the world.



  52. 52

    Artie is driving the 2009 Nissan because his Mercedez was hit and sustained damage in the parking lot of the airport when he went on his gig to raise money for Capt. Janks. He talked about how much money he lost durng that gig, and his car sustained about $10,000 in damage.



  53. 53

    this guy is hot! I want to fuck his chin



  54. 54

    hahahahahaha!!!!! ARTIE!!!!!!! WTF!!!!!!!



  55. 55

    Artie what the fuck is wrong with you? Mike the Cop owes you money because he sure as shit couldn't protect you from from your dangerous behavior. I'm a fan of yours. You're a piece of shit for driving drunk when you're supposed to be getting clean.

    Hi Fred.



  56. 56

    "Too Fat To Fish"



  57. 57

    hello didnt anyone read the article on him in rolling stone? hes a trainwreck.



  58. 58

    Waaaaaaaaa, your a drunk comic, what a chiche'. Hey Perez how about breaking the real story Artie is a Homosexual!



  59. 59

    I like to have a drink when I'm out to dinner sometimes so I BOUGHT A BREATHALYZER so that now BEFORE I drive, I can see if I'm OK to drive. You know that just one drink can put you over the limit if you don't wait long enough? It has really changed things because I sometimes sit for an extra half hour before I blow a .06 which is below the legal limit. I realize after I have a drink it takes an hour to be below the legal limit. AN HOUR! Driving drunk puts others in danger at worst and at best can cost thousands if you get a DUI. Go to Ebay or wherever to buy one. I paid $50. Best $50 I ever spent. Or just don't drink at all but I do like to have a glass of wine from time to time so BE SAFE if you're like me!!!

    Now, heroin is a different matter which it seems Artie could have been on (again). I pray Howard puts ratings aside and kicks Artie off to go check in somewhere for 6 months or else lose his job.



  60. 60

    Artie! It'll be pretty tough to explain yourself out of this one. So is it that once and addict always an addict? That really sucks.



  61. 61

    Its the Whiskey Driving.



  62. 62

    Howard is going to be really pissed. For months he has been boorish, interrupting Howard's train of thought and telling long stories about, "a buddy of min." Then every time Howard mentions someone we have to hear a long ponderous, name-dropping story about how Artie knows or worked with the guy. He is there to make Howard funny and he has stopped doing that. It has become painful to listen to. I have been thinking that he switched his drug of choice, because he finds himself very facinating. Im thinking oxy or coke. Either way, I'm betting Howard is thinking Monday morning ratings or fire Artie. hmmmn. In the long run, I think he will give him a choice: rehab or termination. Who ever thought I would look back on the days of Jackie the Jokeman with fondness. All he did was slip Howard jokes and laugh. Poor Artie. I really love the guy.

    Re: KeriDBeri – AMEN…



  65. 65

    WOW…………….. Artie Artie Artie !!! tsk -tsk -tsk. Howie will not be the "cool boss" on this one. Time to maybe listen to what Dr Drew had to say and get they into in-patient rehab !!! And for the bitch who said Howard is an enabler. FUCK YOU !! He is his co-worker not his babysitter or boss: he has done far more then ANY employer would to assist Artie in getting clean. But there is only so much you can do if a person won't take help. Sirius pays Artie and holds his contract not Howie



  66. 66

    Re: WILL.U.ARE – "What cop would lock him up." one that realizes that when Artie chooses to drive drunk his addictions our now a menace to society



  67. 67

    THAT IS
    A DAMN SHAME

    I HATE STUPID MOFO'S

    DO YA'LL KNOW HAVE MANY PEOPLE
    GET FU*KED UP COZ OF DRUNK DRIVERS????

    TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    HATE PEOPLE THAT DO THINGS LIKE THAT :( :( :(



  68. 68

    OOoh I am clean now! Really I am Howard no honest!



  69. 69

    HUGE Arite/Stern fan - hate to hear D&D, my Mom killed herself that way. Dissapointing, to say the least! I was hoping he was doing better.. I just dont know if it was drug or drink DUI?
