ET confirms the shocking news that 'Hairspray' star Nikki Blonsky was arrested after allegedly getting into an airport fight with "America's Next Top Model" contestant Bianca Golden in the Turks and Caicos islands.
In a new photo obtained by ET (see above) Nikki is seen at court Friday in a neck brace, believed to be worn as a result of an injury suffered during the fight. Bianca was also arrested and also appeared in court today.
Nikki and Bianca were both charged with assault and were both released on $6,000 bail. Nikki is due back in an island court on December 1, while Bianca is due back on September 17.
Nikki's father, Carl Blonsky, and Bianca's mother, Eleine Golden, were also allegedly involved in the fight. Bianca's mother was airlifted to Florida with a head injury, and Miami CBS affiliate WFOR reports that she is currently being cared for in the ICU of a Florida hospital. Mr. Blonsky was charged with inflicting grievous bodily harm and is currently being held at a Turks and Caicos jail where he will remain until August 8.
Blonsky's rep had no comment on the story.
