Katie Cassidy to Cops -- I'm Someone Else!

Katie Cassidy -- actress daughter of David Cassidy -- got nabbed by cops a few weeks ago, for alleged underage boozing, but the unbelievable part of the story is that she tried to get out of her arrest by pretending to be another actress, Taylor Quinn Cole (pictured, inset)!

Cassidy, star of CW's "Supernatural" and longtime girlfriend of Jesse McCartney, was popped in Tucson, Ariz., when she was riding in a car pulled over for moving violations. According to the police report, obtained by The Smoking Gun, when cops noticed that she reeked of alcohol and that her face was "expressionless," they asked for I.D.




Cassidy allegedly told officers her name was Taylor Cole (who guest starred on "Supernatural"), and that she was from Vancouver (Katie's from L.A.), that she was 21, and -- oops -- that her birthday was April 29, 1984 (which would've made her 23).

After cops pointed out her math mistake, Katie fessed-up to lying about her identity, explaining that she was "a Hollywood actress" and was "scared." The arresting officer then called Katie's mom, who asked him "what could be done" to help Cassidy's cause.

Katie's reps didn't immediately return a call for comment. Taylor's reps had no comment.

32. What the hell is the mother doing asking what can be done to help her daughter's case? Hey I'm sorry but if that were my daughter I'd be telling them to book the little brat.

33. She is not Shirley Jones' granddaughter. Ms. Jones was David Cassidy's step-mother.

34. Awww Leave David Cassidy and his daughter alone. She's sweet, and he's a good person. Give them a break!

35. she wasn't driving, she wasn't causing a scene or hurting anybody in any way. so she was 'underage" so what? age 21 for alcohol is pretty stupid anyway considering the age of majority for everything else (signing contracts, voting, etc) is 18.

"expressionless"? again, so what? that is exactly what you are supposed to do at the airport now to avoid being profiled as a terrorist.

gimme a break already, talk about making something of nothing. Don't these cops have real criminals to chase? This smacks of the age old problem with law enforcement, doing a lot of minor, meaningless arrests to up their statistics to make it look like they're doing something.

36. David Cassidy said he is estranged from his daughter because of her bad choices. Also she is not Shirley Jones granddaughter as David isn't her son.

Obbviously, her mother is wacked if she thinks her daughter is a high profile actress. Her mother seems like she's awestruck, maybe thats why David never married her.

40. good god, like all you people never screwed up a day in your lives, for shame! trying to lynch this girl as if she was a serial baby murderer or something. She got caught drinking underage, big friggin deal. kids make mistakes, period. Heck, adults make mistakes, just look at the last 7 years. and identity theft? false statement to an officer? anyone with any sense at all would realize she wasnt stealing an identity, she was just trying to get out of trouble, kids use fake id's or older siblings id's all the time, are they identity thieves too? to sum it all up.....let he/she who is without sin cast the first stone.

41. These kids have it Too, too easy...let's think....most of these so-called "stars" didn't have to work a day to get the spotlight shown on them. How about ALL the other REAL kids out there who go to hollywood, needing a break? REALLY talented kids, whose parents are a "nobody".....? You would THINK that maybe ,just maybe at least one of the kids would wake up and thank GOD for the position they have had and maybe offer some help to someone else.

And.....the term I used above,,I abhor...."nobody"...unless you are in hollywood, you are "nobody".? WELL LISTEN UP..........MOST of are NOT in hollywood and we are bigger SOMEBODIES that these folks will ever be because we actually contribute to society.
These parents should get out the strap and whip their butts.

42. "Help her cause"? Bwahahhaha! What, maybe do a fundraiser? Start up a website? Let's call it "Do-You-Know-Who-I-AM?.com" - please give to this cause, generously. There are thousands of Hollywood starlets languishing behind bars for minutes at a time, people. It's a tragic situation. They must be set free in their natural habitat - boutiques, "in" bars with names like Cloud or Hubcap or Dope, Las Vegas lounges, and behind the wheels of expensive automobiles so they can migrate between these places. Please, donate your time and money to set these exotic creatures free!

45. And I guess each one of you that gave your negative opinion on this girl have NEVER been in that situation, NEVER drank before 21, Never drank in college in which you enter at 18, Look in the mirror people, These people just get caught because it makes news, or you hear about it because they are famous....
