Lost star Josh Holloway fears he and his cast mates have been cursed by success - because they're all "easy" police targets on Hawaii The actor, who plays bad-boy Sawyer on the show, isn't surprised that three of his cast mates have been arrested and six others cited for driving-related incidents in the past 18 months. He tells Glamour magazine, "We're easy targets. First of all we're on an island, which means it's very easily patrolled. And we happen to be famous."
Holloway received a speeding ticket in September. "I told 'em they should be embarrassed about giving me a ticket for doing 53 in a 35 zone. I mean, come on! Go catch real criminals."
He backs his claim by citing the other cast members who have gotten in trouble in Hawaii, including Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje who was arrested in September for disobeying a police officer and driving without a license, and Michelle Rodriguez and Cynthia Watros were arrested on drunken-driving charges in December 2005. Both pleaded guilty.
Meanwhile, Dominic Monaghan was pulled over twice for speeding, as was Naveen Andrews and former cast mate Ian Somerhalder. Fellow Lost star Harold Perrineau Jr. was also stopped and cited for not having proper motor vehicle insurance.
Comments
Concerning Mr Holloway and his " Hawaii cops have it in for the Lost cast". Give me a break, tell him to abide by the traffic laws and he and his friends would not have any problems. As far as the others,they were wasted when they were arrested for DUI, they deserved to be arrested. Holloway should grow up and act like an adult.
