Teen heartthrob-turned-New Age guru busted for selling unlicensed kombucha in the most LA crime ever

Undercover liquor agents raided a Los Angeles charity event last week organized by a New Age spiritual center led by former teen heartthrob Andrew Keegan – who founded his own religion.

The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control cited the Full Circle temple and event center for selling alcohol without a license, a misdemeanor, after investigating a complaint over fermented kombucha tea, reported The Argonaut.

The agents seized several bottles of kombucha, which typically contains less than 0.5 percent alcohol by volume, but anything stronger is classified as an alcoholic beverage – which requires a permit to sell.

“They may be a complaint-driven agency, but we’re an intention-driven organization and our intentions are pure,” said Keegan, who starred in the 1990s hit “10 Things I Hate About You.”

The former actor has the “ultimate say on all things” within the religious group he organized, whose beliefs he explained in an interview last year with Vice.

“Synchronicity, time — that’s what it’s all about,” Keegan said. “Whatever, the past, some other time — it’s a circle, in the center is now. That’s what it’s about.”
