Fame is a fickle lady. Shannen Doherty was once the hottest star on television but these days no one recognizes her. TMZ reports that ‘Shannen went to the Sheriff’s Department in Malibu to complain about paparazzi following her. The cops who talked to her were baffled … because they had no idea who she was.’

None of the cops at the station had any idea who the actress formerly known as Brenda Walsh was, so they couldn’t understand why photographers would be following her. Shannen had to explain to the coppers that she is/was a “tv star” before she left the station in a major huff.

That 90210 gig couldn’t have come at a better time for Shannen. I think it’s time, we’ve all forgiven her for her bad girl club behavior and then that nasty business on Charmed. Some of you kids might be too young to remember, but Ms. Doherty was quite the Hollywood trainwreck back in the day. Fighting in clubs, getting married about 10 times in one year, burning bridges at every turn and just generally being a biatch. Welcome back girl!
