"Tanning Mom" Patricia Krentcil implied her drink was drugged during her disastrous appearance at a New York drag queen club last month, and we've got all the details for you right here on Breaking Celebrity News.

Speaking with Zach Sang and The Gang, Krentcil said, "I think something was put in one of my -- I can't be positive, but I never felt so messed up, and that was not me at all. That's not me.

"My equilibrium is off -- people need to know that," said Krentcil, who was parodied on Saturday Night Live by Kristen Wiig. "When I trip, I fall over the place … I'm ditzy."

She said the event was not a particularly negative experience, but the media's coverage of it made it seem like more of a train wreck than it actually was.

"Of course they're gonna find something bad -- the press -- and not use the good part, cause that’s the press," she groused. "They took two bad parts and they stick it in the paper, the news."
