UFC’s Arianny Celeste Arrested For Domestic Violence In Las Vegas

UFC Octagon girl Arianny Celeste was arrested in the early hours of this morning in Las Vegas, charged with domestic assault (battery).

It’s not yet clear exactly what happened, but she was arrested at 7.30am and it’s believed that she’s not yet paid the $3,000 bond which would see her released from custody.

As a result of her ordeal Celeste won’t be making an appearance at tonight’s UFC 146 event in Las Vegas. Along with being an Octagon girl the 26 year-old beauty is also a successful model who’s been on the cover of magazines like Playboy and Maxim.

While it’s not the biggest deal in the world given that Celeste is just an Octagon girl, it’s still another PR headache for the UFC just a week after their light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones was arrested for DUI after crashing his car in New York.

Update: Arianny did finally make it to the UFC event, making an appearance mid-way through the main card.
