Heather Locklear's Mug after Arrest

Heather LocklearHeather Locklear was arrested last night in Santa Barbara and booked on suspicion of driving under the influence -- cops think she was on prescription meds.

A resident reported Heather was "driving erratically" while pulling out of a parking lot. The California Highway Patrol then found Locklear's car parked on a state highway and blocking a lane. After talking with her, the officer determined she was under the influence of something and arrested her.

She was tested for drugs and alcohol. As we first reported, law enforcement tells us alcohol was not a factor. They are conducting drug tests.

She was released without having to post bail.

18. God Bless her and her family! Addiction and depression are diseases just as if she had diabetes but way harder to control. Don't judge lest you be judged!

23. What is it with the Hollywood crowd? They are really mentally screwed up...either on drugs, prescription medication or booze. They should look to Paul Newman as a role model. He was a top star, very talented, a great humanitarian, had a wonderful 50 year marriage and lived privately in Connecticut away from the paparazzi and glaring lights. The "stars" of today are mostly lacking in talent, have no education and live their lives as one big publicity stunt. Do they realize how pathetic they are and how the public don't respect them at all? What a bunch of losers.

25. Heather get the help you need before it is too late....think of your daughter....she's worth it.

I agree with #3...Richie Sambora needs to step up and help her.

26. Heather is on medication. It may not be the kind you think she is on. It is a new one and depression medication can also cause adverse reactions. She doesn't booze. No breath test done. She will be fine. This I believe is a reaction to her new meds. No she should not be driving, but when you are feeling like she has, she may not know better. God bless Heather and tell Denise to go to hell

28. Boy Heather Locklear's boyfriend Jack Wagner must be thinking about dumping her if he hasn't already.
Britney Spears is now less of a trainwreck than Ms. Locklear-Sambora.

How the hell can a celebrity be so depressed? BROKE? They have tons of money to pay bills and spend. LONELY? They can date any hot guy/girl they want even if they get dumped and plenty of friends to hang out with whenever they're bored.
PARTY? They can hire limo's and bodyguards and get wasted into a coma and not drive.
DRUGS? If they're that serious about kicking drugs-hire a counselor that will stay with you.

HEY JACK WAGNER?.....Wanna get away?

29. With as much money as she's made in the entertainment industry, if she's going to "substance and drive" she could at least hire a driver and "use" in the comfort of a limo. Clearly beauty, success and money haven't given her good sense or peace of mind. What a waste!
