Shoplifting - HecklerSpray

One Of The Cheeky Girls Steals From Sainsbury?s, Jamie Oliver Probably Cries

January 10th, 2011 By Matthew Laidlow

With the weekend?s news largely comprising of the grim shootings in America and people wondering what happened to the Magic Of The FA Cup, we can, of course, rely on celebrities to do something non-threatening and stupid.

Enter Gabriela Irimia. Yeah, that household name that?ll no doubt be seeing you all searching Google and saying “Who the hell is that?”.

Well, Gabriela Irimia had her fifteen minutes of fame many years ago and now frequently regurgitates it, pecking at the small fame chunks she vomits up so she can cling on to some vague fame alongside her equally twin sister Monica. Basically, she’s one of The Cheeky Girls. That’s right. The gruesome twosome that everyone wishes would slink off into a darkened corner never to return.

Winona Ryder Up To Wacky Shoplifting Antics Again

March 24th, 2009 By C J Davies

Shoplifting has always been a part of human culture, ever since Zog The Caveman got caught stealing mammoth tooth necklaces from the jewellery counter in Flinty McGinty's Wonderful World Of Weird Neanderthal Shit.

It was only with the 2002 trial of Winona Ryder, however, that shoplifting truly became a worldwide phenomenon.

Why? Because Ryder gave the genre that all-important celebrity endorsement, that's why. And – as we all know – if a celebrity does something, then it instantly becomes ten million billion times more fashionable and impressive. That's the reason for all those George Formby tribute bands coming together the nation over, now that the Arctic Monkeys have pioneered the movement.

For those of you unaware of dear Noni's past exploits, she was caught six years back walking out of a Beverly Hills clothes store with $3,000 worth of unpaid-for clothing. For a moment she actually tried claiming that she was 'researching for a role', before abandoning that approach when she realised it was the worst excuse since John Wayne Gacy said that the 27 guys underneath the crawlspace were just 'having a nap'.

You would think – after being sentenced to three years probation and 480 hours community service – that she had learnt her lesson, wouldn't you? Weeeelll … you'd be wrong.

Bai Ling Pleads Guilty To That Thing She Did

March 31st, 2009 By Stuart Heritage

It takes a big man to admit they're wrong. Well, a big man or a tiny Chinese lady with a bewildering haircut.

Bai Ling has pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace following her arrest at LAX last month. You'll remember that Bai Ling was arrested for shoplifting two copies of Star magazine and a packet of batteries from an airport shop in a state of high emotional trauma.

And that amounts to disturbing the peace? No, of course it isn't. What happened was that Bai Ling worked out a deal with prosecutors allowing her to plead guilty to disturbing the peace to keep the other, more shameful, crime from her records. That crime is obviously being a reader of Star magazine.

Bai Ling Only Went Robbing Because She Was Sad

March 31st, 2009 By Stuart Heritage

Valentine's Day does funny thing to people.

In a relationship? Valentine's Day will make you grumble about spending £1.70 on a card. Single? Valentine's Day will make you feel worthless and unloved. Bai Ling? Valentine's Day will make you steal magazines and batteries to the value of $16 from an airport store before you're caught and arrested.

Bai Ling – star of no good films ever – was arrested for shoplifting on Wednesday, and she blames it on splitting up with a boy right before Valentine's Day. Makes sense – sometimes the only things that can mend a broken heart are some celebrity magazines and batteries to the value of $16.
