'RuPaul's Drag Race' Winner Tyra Sanchez Arrested For Weed Possession

Tyra -- no, the other Tyra -- knows The Chief. Tyra Sanchez (real name: James William Ross IV), the season 2 win-ahh of "RuPaul's Drag Race", was arrested Tuesday night in Atlanta after the car he was a passenger in was stopped by police. Cops initially pulled over the 2005 Chevrolet Impala for having illegal window tinting, but the officer grew suspicious when he smelled raw marijuana and searched the vehicle. Twenty-three-year-old Tyra, who has a son named Jeremiah, was charged with marijuana possession and released the following afternoon, after posting bond. The car's driver, Christopher Demaurius Smith, 22, was also arrested and charged with marijuana possession and a windshield violation. He, too, was released after making bail.
