Gossip Alert! Elyse Sewell vs. Martin Crandall
 |
Remember Elyse Sewell, the super snarky girl from the first season of America’s Next Top Model? She pretty much hated on everyone and it was terribly amusing. Apparently she was dating Martin Crandall, the keyboardist/guitarist/bassist of indie rock band The Shins, and they got into a little tiff in their Sacramento, California hotel room while on their way “home from Albuquerque to Portland.”
According to The Modern Age, on January 4th they were at a hotel, he was drunk and started to beat her up. She bit him in self defense, and escaped to tell the hotel security. The cops arrived, and they both went to jail. Elyse was released after only staying the night, but Martin may or may not be still in the slammer with a bail of $25,000, ouch!
Over the weekend Elyse wrote her side of the story in her LiveJournal, but for personal and legal reasons made the entries private. The the article from The Modern Age noted that Elyse said the dispute allegedly started because “Elyse complained that Marty had left her with 3 suitcases and a bag of Del Taco food to haul up to the room all by herself.”
Both parties will be in court tomorrow, January 8th, for their hearing.
Lessons to learn, don’t argue with your inebriated boyfriend about Del Taco while at a Sacramento hotel, or anywhere else for that matter, stop being abusive, and stop putting your life on the web!
