Catya Washington, reality TV star of the Oxygen Channel's 'Bad Girls Club' who got nabbed by Pennsylvania state police with drugs and a firearm earlier this month, is in desperate need of bail money.
Her bail was set at $500,000, and all the ride-or-die chick needs to post in order to be free is $50,000. So far, Washington's family has managed to pull together $20,000 in a week's time, but the clock is ticking.
She's short $30,000, and her court date is set for Nov. 22.
TMZ reports that Washington's family set up an online fundraiser for the 24-year-old and the response has been phenomenal. They are keeping hope alive that folks will continue to contribute so that Washington can be sprung from behind bars.
The over-the-top 'bad girl' who touts the fact that she loves 'the finer things in life' and refers to herself as "The Elite Player" might be on the verge of losing all that she has managed to accumulate from her TV show, appearances and from her last stint as a vixen in Drake's "Best I Ever Had" video.
Reportedly, when Washington was arrested on November 3, police discovered she had ecstasy, mushrooms, cocaine and a firearm. She was booked on five charges of possession with intent to manufacture or deliver, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of an instrument of crime.
This young woman left the hit reality show because she felt she was "too high class" for the drama. The very same self-proclaimed diva, who resorted to spitting on people and starting fights to prove her point, has now taken the term "bad girl" to an entirely new illegal level.
Will Washington's family be able to pull together the rest of the bail money in time for the court hearing? Stay tuned....

Why would anyone give this girl any money? First, she goes on a television show to advertise how "bad" she is, then when she's called to task for her bad self and put in jail, she wants people to fork over their money to help her out? That's nuts! I say, let her ass rot in jail. She's so proud of being bad, she should be willing to accept the real life consequences of such behavior. And anyone who actually sends her money is a fool!
