Noah Schnapp Kicked Out From NYC Club for Excessive Drinking
Noah Schnapp, the 20-year-old (at the time of the incident he was 19) star of Stranger Things, got kicked out of a nightclub in New York City in June of this year. According to a source for Page Six, he had a wild night at The Palace and tried to get other guests especially those with bottle service to take tequila shots with him.
However, when some people refused to drink with him because he was underage, Schnapp allegedly became angry. He got so “aggressively wasted” that security had to escort him out. After being kicked out, he sat on the curb and appeared unable to stand.
Schnapp didn’t post any highlights from his night on social media, but Page Six obtained footage of him looking drunk while sitting on a couch in the club with his arm around a friend. In another video, he helped a friend sit down while a girl danced nearby.
The actor has been involved in other controversies in the past. In 2022, singer Doja Cat criticized him for sharing private messages where she asked him to set her up with his co-star, Joseph Quinn.
