NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - Former child star Danielle Fishel, a teen heartthrob on ABC's "Boy Meets World," was arrested this week on a drunken driving warrant from Los Angeles County, police said.

Fishel was arrested Thursday just before 5 a.m. after officers stopped a car she was in, said Newport Beach Sgt. James Rocker. She was released from jail shortly after her arrest.

Fishel grew up in Yorba Linda and spent more than seven years playing Topanga, the love interest of "Boy Meets World" star Ben Savage.

In 2006, Fishel became the spokeswoman for NutriSystem after she announced on The Tyra Banks show that she was so thrilled about losing 20 pounds with the diet program that she wanted to be the company's spokeswoman.

In February, Fishel became a special correspondent for the Tyra Banks show.

OK, I know she's not the biggest star on earth (what was the last thing she was in?) but why can't these people hire drivers whenever they get hammered? I'm sure she made enough money on "Boy Meets World" to at least afford that.

Working for Tyra Banks would force anyone to the bottle.

This happens everyday to people. Why do celebrities get picked on about it? You never see in the news, "Woman gets a DUI today".

I think there is nothing wrong with getting drunk off your ass. I think there is EVERYTHING wrong with endangering the lives of others by driving drunk. Shame on you Topanga what would Mr. Feeny think?

And it should be reported on, and I think DUI's are serious offences and so-called normal people get off a lot harder than these so called celebrities...

So get over it.

Good point, you pretty much read my mind...

Haha, so true
