Most Awkward Question Ever To Gayheart

Not a great idea to tell someone who caused a fatal accident to drive safely. Well maybe it is a good idea, but not if you're a photog trying to engage a celebrity.


So imagine the moment when a pap told Rebecca Gayheart yesterday to "drive safely." Remember, back in 2001, Gayheart was driving when she struck and killed a nine year old boy. She was prosecuted for vehicular manslaughter and pleaded no contest. She was placed on three years probation and settled a wrongful-death lawsuit out of court.

Watch the video and squirm.

1. First off, it was indeed an accident. All the total losers here, who pretend they are the most perfect drivers not capable of such a mistake, ought to go take a good look in the mirror and be honest with yourselves. Additionally, the morons that are saying that a pedestrian always has the right away, should start crossing interstates right away - that way your stupidity and assertions will soon come to an end, as you find out - via the front end of semi - that you were quite wrong. The parents should have born some responsibility in the affair, yet their negligent parenting, or total lack thereof, was not even mentioned.

4. Are you kidding?? Isn't she the same person that killed a pedestrian, or maybe a cyclist, in the road in LA about 10 years ago?

5. Considering that she has already killed someone once with her car, she should be lucky she is actually even free to drive!!!!!!!

7. Christina, from my recollection she killed a kid. And to think she starred in that movie "The Christmas Blessing". The kid in that movie died and gave her one of his organs. That's seems shallow and unfair in a way to do a movie like that and take her seriously.

9. Yes, #3 - in 2001 she took a corner too fast, struck and killed a 9-year-old boy. She plead no-contest to vehicular manslaughter paid a fine and served 750 hours of community service in addition to the undisclosed amount she paid the child's family after they sued her for wrongful death.

11. Rebecca Gayheart is one ugly woman.

12. But #8, you left out one vital detail: That idiot was yakking on her cell (and probably also oogling herself in her rearview mirror) when she turned that corner and killed that child. They should plop her down in the middle of Rodeo and let Britney round the corner and see what happens.

13. Oh- she deserves an award for not killing another kid TMZ!

14. yeah, she's a crazy ho...she killed someone's child by being over anxious and drove around someone else to kill the poor kid and was talking on the phone at the same time...too bad she can't run over herself...there's hardly anything "steamy" about her except that she's a piece of crap!
