British "celebrity" warned for carrying a knife in her home.

The TV presenter and Marks & Spencer model Myleene Klass has been warned by police for waving a knife at teenagers who were peering into a window of her house late at night.

Klass was in the kitchen with her daughter upstairs when she spotted the youths in her garden just after midnight on Friday. She grabbed a knife and banged the windows before they ran away.

Hertfordshire police warned her she should not have used a knife to scare off the youths because carrying an "offensive weapon", even in her own home, was illegal.

Klass's spokesman, Jonathan Shalit, said the former Hear'Say singer was "utterly terrified" by the intruders and "aghast" at the police warning. "All she did was scream loudly and wave the knife to try and frighten them off," he told the Sunday Telegraph. "She is not looking to be a vigilante, and has the utmost respect for the law, but when the police explained to her that even if you're at home alone and you have an intruder, you are not allowed to protect yourself, she was bemused."

And to think they once ruled the world.

It does seem to completely miss the point that there were people trespassing on her property, invading her privacy and making her feel unsafe in her own home. I guess that's OK.

Klass was born in Gorleston, Norfolk, England, to an English/Austrian father and a Filipina mother.

She'd probably be warned for having a "dangerous structure" outside her home, not to mention chastised for being "needlessly unfriendly and unwelcoming".
