MANHATTAN — "Boardwalk Empire" star Paz de la Huerta was charged Tuesday for allegedly attacking a former reality TV star at the Standard Hotel last month.
De la Huerta and Samantha Swetra, who appeared on MTV's "The City," reportedly exchanged words after a night of partying at the swanky Meatpacking District hot spot on March 20.
Things got heated and De La Huerta allegedly punched Swetra in the face, according to the criminal complaint.
She also allegedly threw a glass at Swetra, striking her on the leg and drawing blood, the document said.
"I'm a real actress on HBO," De la Huerta told cops after she was arrested, the New York Post reported. "Boardwalk Empire" is a Prohibition-era show that airs on HBO.
De la Huerta faces various assault, harassment and weapons possession charges, court documents showed.
