Busto’s arrest at the Southampton property came two days after he was arrested at one of Barrymore’s events in New York. The “50 First Dates” actor was having a panel session with actress and singer Reneé Rapp.
A TikTok video of Busto’s entry went viral on social media, showing him introducing himself as “Chad Michael Busto.” He then said, “You know who I am. I need to see you sometime when you’re in New York.” Rapp quickly identified the risks, stepped between them, and immediately led Barrymore off the stage.
Busto was then escorted off stage by two security guards but was not arrested at the time. When Barrymore and Rapp returned to the stage, they talked about the incident. Barrymore tells Rapp her cover is sexy and calls him “my Kevin Costner!’
A source told Daily Mail that the “Blended” actor did not want to make an event about himself. They said, “So he forgot about it as soon as it was over, and he kept talking to Renee and turned the attention back to the conversation, which is what’s important to Drew.”
