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."

32. Well, What else have they got to do? With so much money & time, all these poor celebs can do is collect more stuff, since no one else in the world can afford the expensive toys they crave, they compete with each other over them.

How very, very, very sad and unimaginative.

Is that ALL they can think to do, with money, fame and looks?

33. Hmmmmm, Who's behind TMZ? HARVEY LEVIN .... THE SO-CALLED LAWYER who LOL, comments after the cases for "The People's Court."

I Love that "Show" but can't stand seeing Havey on it.He's a crooked lawyer and all the nasty words You could even come up with!

Tom Cruise is a nut case just as Harvey and His shows (That I've only watched MAYBE 1 time!)

35. All growed up? "Growed?" I'm no english major, but I'm pretty sure "Growed" is not even a word. Do you possibly mean grown? Also, you show these people in their twenties. They are already "All Growed Up". Man, what a crappy website...so I hear.

36. I really find it hard to believe that Brad is jealous of Tom, or any other guy, really!
I mean, he has it all! Maybe Brad was just in a hurry to get his bike! We see pictures
of him on a bike all the time, sometimes he even has his kids with him on it. The only
time you see a picture of Tom on a bike is when theres a rerun of his old movies. I
mean everybody loves a new toy and is in a hurry to get it and play with it! Why not Brad?

37. I am more inclined to reserve judgement regarding such a PETTY story about Brad Pitt.

Bottom line . . . what is more important here? Brad Pitt's tireless, selfless efforts to rebuild the 9th Ward in New Orleans . . . or Tom Cruise's tireless efforts to set himself up as a "god" in the cult of Scientology???

No contest here!!!
