Is Victoria Principal a pistol packin momma?

Vic Principal - no longer as attractive as Sarah Palin, but allegedly more dangerous


Looks like there's some big time drama involving a former celebrity who's not dealing with the quiet life so well. The last time that anybody heard anything about Victoria Principal - she was an early prototype of Lisa Rinna, only without the personality - she was going through an ugly divorce from her then husband, and plastic surgeon, Dr Harry Glassman. There were all kinds of allegations, including physical abuse; and on the part of Dr. Glassman, allegations that Principal was nuts.

Drama after Dallas

Well it looks like the nuts part is finally getting some confirmation by way of a housekeeper. Victoria Principal's current maid Mirabel Banegas, claims that the former Dallas actress went bat shit insane in her presence, and to the point where Ms. Banegas feared for her life. The strange tale begins with a Shih Tzu.

Good help is hard to find so shit on you, you lousy little Shih Tzu!

The Shih Tzu is Ms. Principal's prized pet. It's connection to our story came when Ms. Principal asked her housekeeper to take the dog out for a walk, for the sake of the carpeting. This Ms. Banegas obligingly did, even taking extra time to make sure that the animal finished it's business. When you work for Victoria Principal you want to make sure that the job is done right because as you shall soon learn Vickie don't take no shit, and you wouldn't like her when she's angry.

When I say you're fired I really mean FIRED!

So Ms. Banegas gets back from her dog walk, no doubt pleased with her self for a job well done. Rather than words of praise or appreciation from her employer, Ms Banegas is confronted with an unstable woman on the verge of a meltdown! Vickie told her hapless maid that she had taken too long, and demanded an explanation. Ms Mirabel responded that it was not her, but the dog that had taken too long. That's when things turned ugly.

Now I'm not gonna say that this case sounds bogus, but...

Vickie rushed upstairs and returned with a gun, which she proceeded to aim directly at her employee. Ms Banegas feared for her life. So she rushed into a nearby room, locked herself in, and called 911. She then waited until police responded. Meanwhile, according to Banegas, Principal continued to menace her, waiting outside the door with her gun still in hand. I'm not sure how Banegas knew that Principal still had the gun if she was locked in another room, but hat's a matter for the LA County Superior Court to decide, because they are now officially in on the act. It seems that Ms. Principal is being sued by her former employee. This comes only mere weeks after Phil Spector's conviction for irresponsible gun play leading to the unfortunate death of actress Lana Clarkson. in lawsuits, like drama, timing is important!
