Mindy McCready -- Wanted Woman

UPDATE: TMZ has confirmed that Mindy McCready is now in police custody. She was arrested at the Nashville International Airport moments ago. Airport Police and Williamson County Sheriff's Deputies arrested her after she got off a Southwest Airlines flight. Let's hope she was in Group C!

Police in Tennessee are on the lookout for a former country singer with a huge gash on her face, after a warrant was issued for her arrest earlier today.click to launch

Cops tell TMZ that Mindy McCready violated her probation when she was arrested in Florida on charges of battery and resisting arrest, after allegedly getting into it with her moms ... and then cops. McCready was sentenced to probation in 2004 after being convicted on a prescription drug fraud charge.

In the order, filed in Williamson County, Tenn. in November of 2004, Mindy was ordered to serve three years probation -- meaning she only had a few months left to go.

66. Well if she didn't get beaten up - her name would be forgotten. Who is she anyway? Saw her once on Oprah but never heard her music.

67. This is to Lala who posted "they both have that hillbilly with money quality"
That comment was totally out of line, there are so many stars that are in trouble and I take offense coming from the south myself at the way you said that. Theres no difference in Mindy getting in trouble or Paris getting in trouble "who by the way is far from a Hillbilly"
they both need Help.

72. Mindy was an incredibly talented Country singer, with a set of pipes that could have sung the phone book. She literally was on top of the world, but like Deena Carter, she went the way of the junkie, and tossed her career, friends, family, and life down the toilet.

Nashville, not unlike Hollywood, will throw you out like yesterday's garbage if you are on your best behaviour, just because a record is not selling 10 000 000 copies. But UNLIKE Hollywood, one HINT of bad girl behaviour will destroy you in an instant.

Look at Lorrie Morgan and her homewrecking ways.. when's the last time you heard her on the radio. Leanne Rhimes.. spoke bad 'bout her Daddy, again, nowhere to be found.

Mindy really frigged it up, and won't get a second chance. It's too bad, too. She could have gone pop... easily, and made a great go at it.

This goes to show you, fame and fortune DO NOT buy happiness... and yes, she is behaving VERY Britneyish.

How many of you think those bathroom "breaks" that that quivering ass of cellulite, Ms. Smears was taking for the magazine interview, involved "powdering her nose". She sure is acting very much like a famous name that rhymes... Whitney.

Cheerz.

74. Maybe the singing sheriff there in Williamson County will share some of his Lortabs with her.

75. It truly is a waste of a wonderful talent. She has been settling for doing karaoke at local clubs in Fort Myers.
