Hearst’s Panty Raid

April 6th, 2007 // Leave a Comment

Heathrow Airport is getting an earful from the fashion aficionado. While on a trip across the pond to kick it in Germany and get a little work done (that is campaign work not nip/tuck work… although maybe she had a little of that done too), the socialite became livid after having her personal belongings aired out by guards giving Hearst a shake down before hopping on the plane. The bag containing her “gear” was also damaged with “gashes, squashing and scrapes.”

Page Six has the message from Lydia’s publicist expressing her disgust:

“Aside from the fact that it is inappropriate to display the contents of a woman’s purse in public, the bag holding all of my personal belongings for my trip (panties, lip gloss, wallet and cell phone) were dumped out onto the conveyer belt.” Hearst claimed she repeatedly asked the guards to be careful with her bag because, “The Puma Lydia Bag is a sample item I designed belonging to Puma and Heatherette. It is on loan to me under the expressed understanding that it is to be used for promotional photos and interviews only.”

Who puts their panties in a borrowed purse? Eww.
