Gary Dourdan Releases Statement On Arrest-Maybe

by KD Griffin

Yesterday, Access Hollywood claimed that Gary released an exclusive statement to them regarding his drug arrest. The problem with the statement is that it was an email exchange between Shaun Robinson an Access Hollywood corespondent and friend of Gary’s. A statement by one of Gary’s reps maintains that this was never intended to be made public. “This was a personal text to a friend taken completely out of context. The exchange was not intended for air or publication.”

Whatever the case, here are Gary’s own thoughts about the situation.

“Obviously I certainly wish I hadn’t been responsible for so many people getting to the festival’s VIP area,” Dourdan is referring to the Coachella festival which Access Hollywood previously mentioned “And the after party, it ran me ragged, but I’m glad pulling over did prevent a DUI. I recommend not driving at all, but a little kip (nap) is always good (on either side of the road LOL).”

“I am blessed that the Sgt. realized that the luggage carrying whatever they found was not mine and that my tests have been coming back negative. I’ve been happy to cooperate in any way to clear myself and go on with my blessed life.”

“I am so sorry to all my fans, especially the young ones, like Taylor Swift, who I should’ve been supporting with my daughter instead of driving tired in the desert,” he wrote. “I am planning events to get the word out that you don’t need a bunch of nasty chemicals to have a good time. Just good friends, family, good music and a good honest spirit full of faith.”

Gary was scheduled to present an award to Taylor Swift last Sunday and presumably his daughter Nyla was set to attend with him.
