Christina Aguilera Arrested With Boyfriend

By Kelly Fisher Posted Mar 1st 2011 10:00AM

Christina Aguilera and her boyfriend Matt Rutler were arrested early Tuesday morning in West Hollywood, according to TMZ.

The pop singer was booked on a misdemeanor charge for public intoxication, while Rutler also faces a misdemeanor charge for driving under the influence.

Police reports state Aguilera was booked as 5'2" and 100 pounds. She was released from custody at the West Hollywood sheriff's station at about 7:30 a.m.

"We have no desire to prosecute, none whatsoever. It just for a public safety issue," Los Angeles County Sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said (via PEOPLE.) "When she was able to navigate and to think on her own and make her own way, she was released."

Whitmore contined, adding she stayed at the station overnight beause "she was not capable to taking care of herself."

"She was incapacitated. She was cooperative. She was not belligerent in any way whatsoever. She was just intoxicated," he said.

This the latest bump in the road for the singer, who faced public ridicule when she botched the national anthem at the Super Bowl and then stumbled onstage at the Grammys. Reports swirled in January that Aguilera's hard-partying ways were getting out of control.

Aguilera and Rutler have been dating since last fall. Aguilera's divorce from husband Jordan Bratman was finalized last month.

Her boyfriend probably failed the usual tests at the side of the road. (DUI). As a guess she tried to save him from a ticket - tried to sing the National Anthem (U.S.) and got her ticket for public intoxication.

You're a loser that needs to get a life since always wrong and being judgemental Jeb your a troll as well.

Surprise that Christina got arrested didn't think she would ever get arrested. Christina boyfriend should have called a cab or sober friend to take both them home sounds like neither of them should have been driving.

I can't believe the limit is 0.08. If you were over 0.05 here in Australia you'd already be over the limit.
