American Idol alum Haley Reinhart 'arrested for assaulting bouncer at Chicago pub'
Haley Reinhart, who competed on season 10 of American Idol, got herself arrested Saturday morning in Chicago.
TMZ reported Monday that the singer, 26, was booked for battery after hitting a bouncer after being told she and her friends had to leave the drinking hole around 2 a.m.
According to the gossip website, the Illinois native clocked the bouncer with 'a closed fist' after being told to leave for 'knocking over a table.'

Reinhart placed third on the Fox reality competition in 2011.
Most recently she has been working on a third studio album and released the single Baby It's You last month.
The recording is a rock cover of The Shirelles' classic and is the first hint of what's to come when her new album What's That Sound drops in September.

She told Billboard in June: 'I’ve always been heavily influenced by '60s music and the entire era. I grew up listening to my folks and their band perform most of these tunes including the first single, Baby It's You..................It's beyond neat to say I have my mom singing harmonies and my dad playing guitar on this one, among many others on the album.'
She went on: 'There is so much relevance when we look at today's life events and back to the turbulent times of the late '60s. I believe there is a heightened awareness coming back around and it's important we unite as people and bring the love back home!'
Reinhart also lends her voice to the Netflix animated sitcom F Is For Family that's currently streaming its second season.
