Pitt Throws Hissy Fit?

Tom Cruise was the first to get the new Ducati Desmosedici RR motorcycle and Brad Pitt threw a tantrum, at least according to e-mails obtained by TMZ.

The e-mails, sent by a UPS exec to various freight terminals,instructed that all shipments of the bike be stopped immediately until Brad got his delivered. A UPS source claims the shipping freeze ticked off Denzel Washington and Michael Jordan, both of whom allegedly complained.

Reps for both Brad and Ducati say it's not true -- that Brad never ordered the bike and was never supposed to receive one. We contacted UPS, but rather than deny the story, the UPS exec repeated several times, "I do not want to comment on that." Reps for Washington and Jordan were mum.

If you want to see the e-mails and judge for yourself, watch TMZ TV tonight. Check local listings for time and station.

Man Eats Ground During Fashion Week


Usually when it's Fashion Week, it's the runway models who are taking big spills.

But on a cold, wet morning, we ran into this self-described acrobat in Bryant Park, just outside the show tents, and even though we warned him, you won't quite believe what he tried ... and how it (and he) ended up.

Ex-Yank Wife's Mugshot -- Crazazy Classic!


Don MattinglyYou've never heard of this woman before -- Kim Mattingly, estranged wife of Yankee legend Don Mattingly -- but you'll definitely remember her after seeing this whacked-out mugshot!

And here's the story behind it: Kim was popped by cops after she confronted Donnie Baseball at their Evansville, Ind. horse farm, accusing him of taking her cell phone. According to the Vanderburgh County Sheriff's Department, Kim was "screaming," "unsteady," and "abusive." The second time cops showed up at the house, Kim was sitting in a car, and they arrested her.

Don Mattingly just resigned as the hitting coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, citing "family problems."

17. They need to leave Katerine McPhee alone. Who cares her husband is 42 and she's 23. They love each other and thats all that matters. Look at Celion Dion, her husband is 30 years older then her. It's not about age, you jerks!! Don't you get it. or are you that stupid!!!

21. # 9, you are absolutetly right! The funny thing about all this is the fact that Cruise is really such a mediocrity. Marginal talent at best, and it seems that he's been pulling the wool over the eyes of the public for well over 20 years. I will never understand his appeal. Speaking as a woman...he really not that great looking, and as he gets older he is less and less attractive.

27. Neither Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise are worth watching in movies anymore. Pitt and his hooker girlfriend plus kids and Cruise and his jumping on couches acting like a first class idiot. Yuk to both.

28. Kim Mattingly is also a meth head. She is on the poster at our County Health office showing what changes take place in meth users.

29. You've been told to get off Cruise for weeks because we're sick of the nut - now you start on Pitt & admit late in the article it's a baseless accusation!!! Get off it!!!! Makes me wonder if Washington or Jordan ever ordered a bike at all!!!
BTW -- WHO GIVES A S**T WHAT THESE GUYS ARE DOING???

30. I think Debra Winger, looks pertty good, have you seen John Torvoltra lately, At least, so far she hasn't gone and had a face lift, but, I still admire her, she a great actress ? If it's true these Actors, Brad Pitts, Denzel Washington & Michael Jordon, didn't get their motercycles, before, Tom Cruze, and Mr. Pitts, throws ahissy fit, oh my goodness, it just amazes me, how fame has gone to their heads, and greed, and shelfishness. Why, would any one won't a motercycle, to go as fast a sthis one does, do all these men have a death wish, or are they just stupid. At least go buy good life insurance, So your loved ones will be set for life. What a bunch of do, do.
