Police Looking for Former 'Idol' Chikezie
Seventh season 'American Idol' contestant Chikezie Ndubuisi Eze is a wanted man. There is a bench warrant out for the 25-year-old, who is on probation for an arrest stemming from a purchase he made with a fraudulent credit card.
Apparently, Eze was at Beverly Hills luxe retailer Neiman Marcus last February. The Nigerian-born singer attempted to buy two bottles of cologne and used a bogus credit card to pay for the items. He was arrested and sentenced to three years probation after pleading no contest to misdemeanor identity theft. The 'Idol' alum was also required to perform 45 days of community labor and ordered to stay away from the department store under the terms of the deal.
Now, since Eze failed to appear before a judge for a Jan. 14 hearing related to the arrest last year, a bench warrant has been issued for his arrest. The no-nonsense Los Angeles Judge Marsha Revel, who took actress Lindsay Lohan to task for failing to appear at a mandatory court hearing, issued the warrant and also revoked Eze's probation.
Hmmm. I don't smell good times ahead for Eze.
