(2,419 posts)284. Guess What Christie's Friend The Cake Boss Said.....
when he was arrested! You can't arrest me! I'm the Cake Boss! Don't you know who I am? You see things are different when you're a FOC'er (Friend of Chris )
Buddy Valastro allegedly says to cops: 'You can't arrest me! I'm the Cake Boss!'
NEW YORK When police officers stopped Buddy Valastro for allegedly driving while drunk, he protested that his pastry prowess barred him from arrest.
"You can't arrest me! I'm the Cake Boss!" he told police, according to prosecutors.
Valastro was arraigned Thursday evening at New York City Criminal Court on drunken driving charges. He appeared in a suit jacket and jeans and quietly listened to prosecutors describe what allegedly happened early Thursday morning.
Police spotted Valastro's 2014 yellow Chevy Corvette swerving in and out of his lane on 10th Avenue, according to authorities. Police said his face was flushed, and he was unsteady when he got out of his car.
He repeatedly told the police officers that they didn't need to arrest him, that they could work something out because he isn't "a bad guy," prosecutors said during the arraignment.
"Can you just put me in a cab?" he allegedly asked police. "You don't have to arrest me. I'm not a bad guy."
