Tawny Kitaen Strikes Plea Deal

Posted Dec 13th 2006 5:49PM by TMZ Staff

Tawny KitaenTMZ has learned actress Tawny Kitaen struck a deal today in her cocaine possession case.

Prosecutors in Orange County, Calif. have agreed to drop felony drug charges against Kitaen, provided she completes a drug rehab program.

The 45-year-old actress, best known for starring in the 80's hit film "Bachelor Party" and Whitesnake videos, was charged with felony drug possession after Orange County Sheriff's Deputies allegedly found 15 grams of cocaine in her house last May, after responding to an anonymous call asking cops to check on her children.

We're told that after the incident, Kitaen immediately entered rehab, which she will complete in June. At that time, all charges will be formally dropped.

Kitaen is represented by high-powered celebrity attorney Blair Berk, who also handled cases for Mel Gibson, Halle Berry and Reese Witherspoon.

1. And to think she used to be one of the top 3 pieces of ass on the planet back in her day. Of course, now she's been passed around the ballplayers and metal bands and is completely done....

2. So what else is new? I know, when a rich celebrity actually has to do some time for their crime. Now that would be real news. To bad I don't see that happening, ever.

3. This is Raquel Welch's daughter.

What a shame she produced this piece of sh*t loser.

She looks older than her mother.

What a disgrace.

Put her in jail.

5. Now let this be a lesson, Paris, Lindsay, Nicole and Britney this is your lives in about 2016 if you're still alive. Look at Tawny Kitaen, she does look like she's been with the band, and then thrown out the car with it moving.
