Sheriff's Deputy Bill McSweeney says Aguilera was a passenger in the car that was stopped at about 2:45 a.m. Tuesday.

Her boyfriend, 25-year-old Matthew Rutler, was booked on suspicion of driving under the influence. His bail was set at $30,000.

McSweeney says Aguilera appeared to be extremely intoxicated and unable to look after her own welfare.

I’m confused. Under what law can someone be arrested for being drunk but NOT the driver of a vehicle? I was first thinking drunk and disorderly but being in a car would seem to preclude the disorderly part.

I was probably 22 the last time that happened to me.

To be a thirty-something, world famous, multi-millinaire entertainer and wind up drunk in a car and in danger of wetting oneself ... how sad and pathetic is that?

“His bail was set at $30,000.”

For a misdemeanor? I’ve seen killers get less bail..
