Beth Ditto, singer for dance-punk band the Gossip and Portland resident, was arrested last night and charged with disorderly conduct, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office. She was booked at 1:42 am and released on her own recognizance. 

According to a source at the Bungalo Bar on 4205 N Mississippi Ave., Ditto was cut off from drink service at that bar early Saturday morning because she appeared to be inebriated, and upon leaving the bar “walked out in the middle of the street, threw off her shoes and purse and screamed OBAMA! OBAMA!” as friends arrived to try to put her in a car.

“The cops came,” continues the source. “Like 10 or 12 cars. Guy was tagging a wall down the street.”

Ms. Ditto caught the police’s attention after they cuffed the graffiti suspect. “They said she was somebody famous. I didn’t know.”

Ditto was arrested for second-degree disorderly conduct; all charges were subsequently dropped.

The White House press office has yet to issue an official response.

    If some drunken asshole is screaming Obama I would hope they would be arrested. That is a very offensive word. Portland...

    She’s wasted, but her eyeliner still looks better than mine ever does.
