Chanel West Coast had her own share of ridiculousness back in 2015 when she was arrested outside of 1 OAK nightclub in West Hollywood. TMZ first broke the news, posting a video that showed an intoxicated West Coast getting handcuffed after “punching and kicking a cop.” As the gossip rag noted, it turned out that one of the arresting officers was going to let her go — until she got physical.
Apparently, what initially triggered the commotion was West Coast getting into a fight with a woman inside the club (spoiler alert: she didn’t press charges). According to E! News, after West Coast was kicked out of the club, she got into it with security which lead to someone making a citizen’s arrest. The budding rapper was initially held down “on suspicion of misdemeanor battery.” The TV personality stayed put until L.A. County Sheriff’s deputies arrived on scene. West Coast denied getting into any sort of altercation, posting tweets where she blamed the police. “I was violently held by 2 huge men cops last night for nothing and have bruises all over my arms.”
Although the situation was clearly sour for all parties involved, it at least gave us West Coast’s hilarious “do-you-know-who-I-am” moment. The reality TV star shouted, “I’ve been on TV for 17 seasons,” to which one of the cops immediately quipped, “Congratulations!” We have a feeling that wasn’t the “respect” this starlet so desperately craves.
