Taxi cab confession: Lawyer says SI model not at blame in cab fight

The lawyer for SI swimsuit model Jessica White told the New York Post his client was provoked into a fight over a taxi cab.

White, until recently paired with Sean Penn, was arrested early Saturday morning after reportedly hitting another woman in the face and pulling her hair. She was charted with misdemeanor assault and has a Dec. 15 court date.


"The Sports Illustrated supermodels that I represent, such as Rachel Hunter and Jessica White, are all good sports and super people, not the type of women that get into catfights," attorney Mark Jay Heller told the Post. "Stories concerning celebrities frequently get blown up, and I'm confident that when the air is released from this blown-up story that has obviously been overinflated, all that will be left will be hot air with no substance."
