Holly Montag Kicked Out of Laugh Factory After Threatening Comedian
Earlier tonight Holly Montag (The Hills; sister to Heidi Montag) was kicked out of the legendary Laugh Factory (on Sunset in Hollywood) after she threatened Chelsea Lately comic, Chris Franjola, with chains... yeah, real friggin' CHAINS!We were there and saw it all first hand and it was BEYOND U N B E L I E V A B L E !
First off, let's keep in mind that this night started off as a nice, cheery charity event by Reality Cares for Camp Heartland. But then it got ugly...
So, Holly was wearing chains as suspender-like accessories (as you can see in the pic above) and literally, came charging up to the stage, removing her chains like a bad-ass biker would remove a leather jacket just before battle; she then gathered the chains into her fist, held them up in an extremely irate manner, and shouted at Chris Franjola, "I've got chains!" and then, in a lower, very mean tone, "I'm not afraid of you."
We were all shocked to the core as she continued to shout things at Franjola and could not stop herself from continually re-charging up the center aisle to confront him face to face in front of an audience that was clearly booing her out of the room and laughing hysterically amid great applause every time the celebrity comic battered her with his wit.
In the midst of all of this, she'd thrown her purse down on the floor, screamed, "This is a violation!" repeatedly and told him "You're horrible!" This was in reaction to him pulling a tampon out of her purse and telling the audience, "We know why she's a bitch now."
He took it all very well and, once she'd been booted out of the building, joked about how he admittedly was a little scared when she charged at him with the chains, thinking she was going to throw them at him. We all eventually settled down and there was a silent little lull where he said, "Wow, I kinda miss her now."
This is when an audience member said maybe he'd see her after the show with her MTV crew. He was like, "MTV crew?" Ya, Franjola, as well as most the audience, had no idea it was Holly Montag who he had just battled with!
When the guy in the audience announced it was Holly, the crowd went I N S A N E... I don't think I've ever seen a crowd go so nuts at a comedy show, ever.
And to think, earlier in the evening I almost bailed on this event and sent my staff--oh, God, You don't even know how happy I was that I didn't bail--this was way to good to miss!
Sadly, Holly must not have been feelin' very charitable this evening as this was a charity event put on by the amazing Reality Cares team to benefit the children of Camp Heartland (oneheartland.org) ... next time, this girl's gotta check her chains & her attitude at the door!

Anyhow, I don't have video of the showdown between Holly-field & Franjola, but the Hollywire Girls will be reenacting it for you on video tomorrow... for now, here's some of the aftermath of the incident:
You know, oddly enough, we just interviewed Holly a couple of weeks ago, and [although drunk] she seemed so sweet, but after tonight, I don't think "sweet" and "Holly" could ever be synonymous again.
