Celebrity Justice
Bodyguard Says Steve-O's Reality is His Nightmare

Posted Jul 1st 2008 8:32PM by TMZ Staff

A doorman hired to work at Kitson during Paris Hilton's clothing line launch says a bodyguard for Steve-O punched him in the face during a shoot for the wackadoodle's reality show.
Steve-O vs. USA Networks
In a lawsuit filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, Roland Cano says he was at his post at the front door of the trendy shop, when Steve-O and his 6'9", 375 lb. goon showed up with a crew filming the reality show "Dr. Steve-O." When Cano refused to let them in the event, he says Steve-O's bodyguard and former football player Reggie "Big Regg" Pace "without provocation, violently punched [Cano's] head repeatedly."

Then he says it got worse!

To add insult to injury, Steve-O allegedly bragged "I just had my dude rip that security guard's face ... it was awesome ... I just needed to see my security guard rough everyone the f**k up!" Cano then says Steve-O hugged Big Regg, saying "Nice work man. You made me so proud of you ... We won!"

Cano, who says he's suffering from "extreme and severe mental anguish and physical pain," is suing Steve-O, Big Regg and the show's producers for unspecified damages.

1. Steve-O and the rest of the merry men of jackass are yesterday's news. Those junkies jumped the shark long ago. Hope the doorman gets a settlement before all Steve-O's money goes up his nose.

4. I have no idea who these people are, but it sounds like attempted murder to me. Why is this a civil suit and no criminal charges?

5. I doubt Steve O has any money. His father advised him badly and had him invest every bit of the money he made. He doesn't even own his own home he rents which is the most idiotic thing anyone can do.

6. Criminal assualt charges should be filed----get the big guy to do jail time and his "handler" to pay up in civil court.

This idiot must still be on drugs talking that way about happy to learn people are getting hurt because of him. How dare that jerk even be allowed in public.

11. P-U $- $- Y !! How many times has this or any doorman kicked the crap out of some "innocent" pain in the neck much to their amusement? Finally got what was coming to him in a sense and now wants a payday. Bull$hit!! Hazard of the profession. You loser!!

12. Steve-O is a complete moron who is giving ANOTHER complete moron an opportunity to make some fast cash.

13. Steve-O is really a smart and compassionate person, but he probably doesn't worry too much about "goons" who are always busting someone in the head! That guy probably had it coming and has probably done a lot worse himself. He's just an opportunist and a WIMP to say the least. Crybaby wants some free money. Imagine a security guy being such a wimp! LOL

15. LAURA, you had a slight typo in that celebrity website you recommended... it's missing an "e" in celebrity. I get a kick out of reading about the weirdness that is Hollywood, but TMZ is running me off with its intrusive ads. Thanks for your recommendation!
