Hollywood's kind of woman *

LAPD photoVanessa Etourneau has everything a producer likes. She's mysterious, vaguely exotic and drapes her long lean body in expensive clothes. She's articulate, speaks with a French accent and is fluent in English, French, Italian, Thai and Spanish with a little Arabic on the side. She hangs out at the beach and in West Hollywood, knows fashion and can handle her money. She even has the bad-girl edge that some Hollywood types enjoy. However, if you are tempted to put her in your next movie, or even take her to dinner, you might want to have a chat first with detectives Murray and Small at LAPD Bunco Forgery. They have been looking for Ms. Etourneau for going on eight years. Link from Losanjealous.

* Update: A law office working on Etourneau's behalf says that in August, 2007, she appeared in Los Angeles Superior Court and the grand theft charges were dropped due to lack of evidence.
