Thanks for the mug shot TMZ.

Bai Ling is finally making headlines for something other than her outrageous fashion choices.

The professional spotlight seeker and sometime actress, whose résumé includes such disparate credits as Lost guest star and would-be karaoke queen on But Can They Sing?, was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport Wednesday evening after allegedly attempting to relieve a store of $16 worth of preboarding goods.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the 37-year-old Chinese-born star was busted by an employee at the Crews of L.A. gift shop in Terminal 1 at roughly 4:30 p.m. after leaving the shop without paying. The employee detained Ling under a citizen's arrest until airport cops arrived on the scene.

Per police, Ling attempted the five-finger discount of four items: two celebrity gossip magazines and two packs of AAA batteries.
