BAM MARGERA Heated Spat with Fiancée Out of Concern He Had Relapsed

In A Bam Romance
TMZ.com

Bam Margera got into a loud argument with his fiancée that was caught on camera, and while it looked and sounded like they were at each other's throats ... Bam says it actually stemmed out of love.

The former "Jackass" star was arguing with Dannii Marie last Thursday outside of a Nashville hotel -- not long after he'd injured himself in a skate stunt that left him with a torn MCL and ACL.

Bam Bangs Knee

In the video, obtained by TMZ, you can see Bam and Dannii shouting at each other -- it's a heated conversation, for sure, but Bam tells us all is well in their relationship.

He says the argument started after he stepped outside for a smoke break ... we're told Dannii apparently thought he was trying to sneak away to use hard drugs, as he has in the past.

Fact is, a lot of online trolls have speculated Bam might relapse after his injury if he were prescribed pain meds. We're told Dannii found Bam outside in the alley, and confronted him about that very possibility thinking the worst, but he insists the only thing he lit up was a cig.

Long story short ... Bam says Dannii was simply expressing concern for him, and he absolutely appreciates his woman looking out for his best interests. He credits her with keeping him on the straight and narrow with his sobriety.

EVERYBODY, CHILL

Bam says he took a urine test that day to reassure Dannii he was clean, and he tells us he remains substance-free even to this day -- marking 6 months of sobriety.

Bam's manager Mike Quinn tells TMZ... "Good news, Bam remains sober. The personal incident outside a hotel, involving Bam and his fiancée, Dannii, stemmed from Dannii's concern for Bam's wellbeing. This misunderstanding between the couple was resolved positively, as expected moments later. Bam continues to take his regular voluntary urine tests to confirm his sobriety."

Now, Bam's on the mend with Dannii by his side, and even if they argue about his addiction issues ... he says they're absolutely going strong as a couple.

Steve-O Defends Jimmy Kimmel's RDJ Addiction Joke ... No Apology Needed!!!

NO APOLOGY NEEDED
TMZ.com

Steve-O is siding with Jimmy Kimmel after the late-night host poked fun at Robert Downey Jr.'s past substance abuse issues during his Oscars 2024 monologue.

Check out our chat with him above ... where he stood by his fellow comedian, arguing people take jokes way too seriously these days. He told TMZ ... "Let comedians tell jokes!"

Despite overcoming addiction issues himself -- the "Jackass" star felt it was totally within JK's rights to call out RDJ on his troubled past.

TAKING IT TOO FAR???
ABC

Not only did the 49-year-old call hosting a "thankless job" ... he also reminded us that people who are sober regularly discuss their sobriety journeys, like at AA and NA meetings -- so why does it matter if Jimmy chimes in?

So ... it wasn't surprising when Steve-O declared Jimmy does not owe Robert an apology. Though, he made it clear he won't be following in Jimmy's footsteps, explaining he likes to make himself the butt of a joke.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Steve-O's stance comes a day after Jimmy sparked awkward laughter at the Academy Awards after calling "Oppenheimer" one of the highest points in Robert's career ... alluding to his previous court-ordered rehab stay in the early '00s.

Robert -- who has been sober since 2003 -- was a good sport about the dig ... making an "on the nose gesture" when the cameras panned to him. He also called out his struggles in his Oscars acceptance speech -- thanking his entertainment lawyer Tom Hansen for "trying to get [him] insured and bailing [him] out of the hoosegow" over the years.

It's clear that RDJ is unbothered ... so why should we be upset???

BAM MARGERA Skateboard Wipeout ... Tears MCL, Needs Crutches

Bam Bangs Knee

Bam Margera took a serious tumble while showing off his skateboarding skills -- and we've got the clip of the exact moment it all went down.

Check it out ... the pro skateboarder whizzes back and forth on the ramps, when suddenly, on one descent, his left leg lags behind ... sending him hurtling towards the ground.

As you can see, the former "Jackass" star's clearly in agony, letting out a loud "F***!" while writhing in pain on the ground. His buddy finds himself in a tough spot here ... watching helplessly, unsure of what to do next or how serious Bam's pain really is.

Turns out, it was quite bad ... 'cause he headed straight to the hospital after the wipeout. But, he luckily managed to avoid surgery and only needed a knee brace and some crutches instead.

The skateboarder was also comforted by his fiancée Dannii Marie ... who was by his side at the hospital. Looks like their love is still rolling strong!

Bam kept his fans in the loop ... taking to IG to share the news of his MCL tear -- which is essentially a stretch, partial tear, or complete tear of the medial collateral ligament.

Hopefully, he'll kick his recovery into high gear and be back on his feet soon. Feel better!

Bam Margera Faces Famous Fear of Snakes ... In New YT Prank Segment

FACING FEARS
MadHouse

Bam Margera is famously afraid of snakes, which makes this new video all the more cringe-worthy to watch ... as he tries (and mostly succeeds in) facing that fear.

The former 'Jackass' star appeared in a new segment from a group of young pranksters called the MadHouse Boys -- who posted the full video on their YouTube page capturing the moment they had BM confront a giant python face-to-face.

Check it out ... Bam's blindfolded from the jump, and as soon as they remove it -- he sees what's in front of him and makes a run for it. After some cajoling though, he comes back.

As you see, he eventually brings himself to pose with the python -- thanks to his fiancée Dannii Marie, who stuck it out with him and helped him overcome his crippling anxiety.

Later in the video, the MadHouse guys give him a much smaller snake to hold on his own -- and he conquers that, too ... albeit, with a lot of wincing and squirming around. Still though!

Bam's fear of snakes is well-documented -- he did a bunch of stunts with Johnny Knoxville and co. back in the day that put him right in the midst of these slithering beasts -- and he freaked the hell out each and every time. Good content then, and great content now.

Good to see the homeboy getting back into the swing of things, scales and all!

Bam Margera I'm Engaged!!!

Bam Margera proposed to his girlfriend Dannii Marie  ... and she accepted!!!

The former "Jackass" star and pro skateboarder tells TMZ ... he popped the question Oct. 27 in New Hope, PA at the home of pro skater Ed Duffy.

Bam and Dannii dated for about 6 months before he dropped to one knee and proposed ... and Bam tells us he kept the engagement mostly under wraps, only telling a few people.

It's unclear when Bam and Dannii will be walking down the aisle ... but the engagement is another sign things are looking up for Bam.

As we first reported ... Bam is now 100 days sober and counting, he's working out and skateboarding again and just got granted monitored visits to see his son Phoenix.

Us Weekly was first to report Bam's engagement, and he told the outlet Dannii is the main reason why he's sober and turning his life around.

Mazel Tov!!!

Bam Margera se pone en la piel de "Jackass" para un video de impacto con MadHouse

como en los viejos tiempos
@madhouseboys

Bam Margera volvió a sus viejos trucos, prestando su experiencia en "Jackass" a un nuevo grupo de temerarios salvajes y ayudarles a filmar un brutal video nocaut.

La ex estrella de "Jackass" filmó un par de acrobacias durante el fin de semana en Los Ángeles con los MadHouse Boys, lanzando en un guante de boxeo y desatando algunos haymakers a la cabeza.

En las imágenes, obtenidas por TMZ, se ve a Bam acercarse sigilosamente a uno de los MadHouse Boys por detrás y darle un puñetazo en un lado de la cabeza... y se ve bastante doloroso.

repartiendo puños
TMZ.com

Para los no iniciados, MadHouse es un grupo de acrobacias de última generación, en redes sociales dicen que son básicamente como "si "Jackass" y tu madre tuvieran un bebé".

Nos han dicho que MadHouse se puso en contacto con Bam porque querían que formara parte de su video piloto de Netflix.

Por supuesto, Bam ha tenido una desagradable pelea con las estrellas "Jackass" por lo que está disponible y aparentemente dispuesto a ayudar a la competencia.

Bam Margera Films KO Video With MadHouse Boys ... Here Comes the Boom!!!

JUST LIKE OL' TIMES
@madhouseboys

Bam Margera is up to his old tricks ... lending his "Jackass" experience to a new group of wild daredevils and helping them film a brutal knockout video.

The former "Jackass" star shot a couple stunts over the weekend in L.A. with the MadHouse Boys... throwing on a boxing glove and unleashing some haymakers to the head.

In the footage, obtained by TMZ, you see Bam sneaking up on one of the MadHouse Boys from behind and punching him in the side of the head, and it looks like it hurts ... which, we guess, is the whole damn point.

SERVIN' UP SMACKS
TMZ.com

For the uninitiated, MadHouse is a next-generation stunt group ... on social media they say they are basically like "if 'Jackass' and your mom had a baby." Great visual.

We're told the MadHouse guys reached out to Bam because they wanted him to be part of one of their videos.

Of course, Bam's had a nasty falling out with the OG "Jackass" stars and producers ... so he's available, and apparently willing to help the competition.

Bam Margera visita a su hijo y planea reunirse con él en Navidad

Bam Margera finalmente consiguió la luz verde para ver a su hijo, esto después de cruzar recientemente un gran hito en la sobriedad y tiene planes para ver al niño para la Navidad. TMZ ha iondagado.

David Glass —el abogado que representa a la esposa separada de Bam, Nikki— nos dice que la ex estrella de "Jackass" ha concedido visitas supervisadas para ver a su hijo pequeño, Phoenix. Se nos dice Bam puede ver Phoenix con un supervisor profesional siempre y cuando sea en el sur de California, que es donde Nikki vive con el niño.

Glass dice que ni él ni su cliente han sido informados acerca de cualquier fecha potencial para Bam ver Phoenix, aunque nos dicen lo contrario por Bam.

El propio Margera le dice a TMZ que no ha visto a Phoenix en persona desde hace más de 200 días y está decidido a visitar a su hijo justo alrededor de Navidad... nos informan que pasa a ser el cumpleaños del niño también.

batalla por la custodia

Bam dice que esto es desde hace mucho tiempo, ya que afirma que sólo se ha permitido FT llamadas con Phoenix hasta ahora - y como tal, Papá Oso está todo listo para conducir a Cali para pasar algún tiempo de calidad con él. Nos dicen que Bam viene con un saco lleno de regalos, también, para Phoenix.

Al parecer, Bam había comprado $ 5,000 en regalos para su hijo - pero debido a todo el drama legal últimamente, no ha sido capaz de darles a Phoenix todavía ... aunque, Bam dice que va a recoger estos juguetes de la casa de un amigo en Burbank cuando llegue a la ciudad.

Como hemos informado, Bam recientemente logró estar más de 100 días sobrio, lo cual es una gran victoria para él en muchos aspectos. Bam nos dice que el juez en su caso de divorcio ha estado monitoreando este progreso cuidadosamente y pareciera que la decisión de concederle visitas se debe a su sobriedad.

Ahora todo lo que tiene que hacer es llamar a Nikki y contarle sus planes. 😅

Bam Margera Scores Monitored Visitation w/ Son Plans Xmas/Bday Meetup

Bam Margera finally got the green light to see his son -- this after recently crossing a huge milestone in sobriety -- and he has plans to see the boy for Christmas ... TMZ has learned.

David Glass -- the attorney repping Bam's estranged wife, Nikki -- tells us the former "Jackass" star has, indeed, been granted monitored visitation with their young son, Phoenix. We're told Bam can see Phoenix with a professional supervisor if/when he's in Southern California ... which is where Nikki lives with the kid.

As of right now, however, Glass says neither he nor his client have been informed about any potential dates for Bam to see Phoenix.

BM himself tells TMZ ... since he hasn't seen Phoenix in person for well over 200 days now, he's dead set on visiting his son right around Christmas -- which we're told happens to be the kid's birthday as well.

BAM'S BATTLE FOR CUSTODY

Bam says this is long overdue, as he claims to have only been allowed FT calls with Phoenix up until now -- and as such, Papa Bear is going to be flying into Los Angeles this month for an event and wants to spend some quality time with him. We're told Bam's coming with a sack full of presents, too, for Phoenix.

Apparently, Bam had purchased $5,000 worth of gifts for his kid -- but because of all the legal drama lately, he hasn't been able to give them to Phoenix just yet.

As we reported ... Bam recently hit over 100 days sober, which is a major win for him in so many respects. Bam tells us the judge in his divorce case has been monitoring this progress carefully -- and feels like the decision to grant him visitation is due to his sobriety.

Now all he has to do is have his lawyers call Nikki's lawyer and make them aware of what he wants to do.

BAM MARGERA ¡LLEVO 120 DÍAS SOBRIO!

Bam Margera está celebrando un hito en su sobriedad, y le está dando las gracias a su novia, el gimnasio y el skate por ayudarlo a mantenerse sano... además recibe el apoyo de Mark Wahlberg.

La ex estrella de "Jackass" le dice a TMZ que lleva 120 días sobrio y contando.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Bam nos dice que está en San Antonio, Texas, donde está trabajando en una película y algunas nuevas obras de arte para una empresa de ropa. Él todavía está trabajando a diario con su novia Dannii y ha vuelto con todo al patinaje, tres cosas que atribuye a su sobriedad.

Esta semana estuvo haciendo ejercicio dentro de un gimnasio propiedad de Jarred Taylor, que es uno de los fundadores de la compañía de café Rifle Negro, y una vez trabajó con Mark en la película de guerra 2013 "Lone Survivor".

Como se puede ver, Bam está haciendo ejercicio en un gimnasio cubierto de imágenes de las películas de Mark, lo que lleva al actor a darle a Bam un saludo realmente genial.

¡felicitaciones!

TMZ obtuvo el video de un mensaje que Bam le envió a Mark, diciéndole que lleva 120 días sobrio y también obtuvimos la respuesta en video de Mark.

Mark felicita a Bam por su hito y espera juntarse con él pronto en Las Vegas.

Bam nos dice que se reunió con Mark un par de veces el día de la entrega de premios.

Bam dice que recientemente obtuvo la autorización para poder ver a su hijo, Phoenix, por lo que está planeando conducir a California para ver a su hijo. Probablemente haga una parada en Las Vegas para relajarse con Mark.

Buenas noticias.

Bam Margera I'm Over 100 Days Sober ... Wahlberg's Saluting Me!!!

Bam Margera is crossing a milestone in his sobriety, and thanking his girlfriend, the gym and skateboarding for helping him stay on the straight and narrow ... all while getting support from Mark Wahlberg.

The former 'Jackass' star tells TMZ … he's over 100 days sober and plenty busy with work and his fitness.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Right now he's in San Antonio working on a movie and developing new artwork for a clothing company. He is still working out daily with his GF Dannii and skating again ... aka the 3 key factors to his sobriety, according to Bam himself.

This week he was working out at a gym owned by Jarred Taylor, one of the founders of the Black Rifle Coffee Company ... who also once worked closely with Wahlberg on the 2013 war movie "Lone Survivor."

As you can see, Bam's working out in a gym covered in images from Mark's movies ... leading to the actor giving Bam a really cool shout-out.

BIG CONGRATULATIONS

TMZ obtained video of a message Bam sent to Mark, letting him know he was approaching 120 days sober ... and we also got Mark's video response.

Mark's congratulating Bam for his milestone and hoping to connect with him soon in Las Vegas. BTW, Mark's also talked about getting sober this year for health reasons, so they have that in common.

Bam tells us he met Mark a few times back in the day at awards shows and parties, and he's planning to take Wahlberg up on the offer.

BM says he recently got cleared to see his son, Phoenix, so he's planning to drive to California to see his kid, with a stop in Vegas on the way to chill with Mark.

Good stuff.

Steve-O Jon Jones me reventó la oreja c/ cinturón de la UFC Y me encanta ❤!!!

Absurdo deseo
Steve-O's Bucket List

Steve-O está haciendo historia en la UFC, gracias al campeón de los pesos pesados, Jon Jones, ¡¡¡porque estamos seguros de que un cinturón de la UFC nunca ha sido emparejado con un martillo para romperle la oreja a alguien!!!

Echa un vistazo a este video de locos, si tu estómago puede soportarlo. La estrella de "Jackass" estaba pasando el rato con Jon en Albuquerque cuando se le ocurrió la delirante idea de que este le diera el golpe.

Se trata de una deformación de la oreja que los luchadores comúnmente obtienen en sus competencias, pero Steve-O tomó un atajo, colocando su oreja derecha debajo del cinturón de Jon y haciendo que él literalmente le martillara el cinturón.

Le costó unos cuantos golpes, pero como era de esperar, la oreja de Steve se convirtió rápidamente en un desastre que no paraba de sangrar 😱.

El estúpido truco forma parte de su especial de comedia "Bucket List", que se estrenó el martes, y Steve lo describe como una recopilación de cosas que no fue capaz de hacer en "Jackass".

Steve-O dice que trabajó en este proyecto durante cinco años y consiguió al comediante Bill Burr para la secuencia de apertura del especial, por el que gastó más de 150 mil dólares solo para la producción de esos 90 segundos de metraje.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Steve-O dice que intentó vender el especial a numerosas plataformas de streaming, pero era demasiado intenso, así que lo lanzó de forma independiente en su propio sitio web.

Echa un vistazo si quieres, pero presta atención a la advertencia ... Parece que algunas personas se desmayaron viendo algunas de las imágenes. ¡Toma este video de la oreja como una prueba de tu fortaleza!

Steve-O Jon Jones Smashed My Ear w/ UFC BELT ... And I ❤ It!!!

INSANE BUCKET LIST
Steve-O's Bucket List

Steve-O is making UFC history, thanks to heavyweight champ Jon Jones -- 'cause we're pretty sure a UFC belt's never been paired with a hammer to smash someone's ear!!!

Check out the insane clip, if your stomach can handle it -- the "Jackass" star was chilling with Jon in Albuquerque when they came up with the crazy idea for Jon to try to give Steve cauliflower ear.

It's a gnarly deformation of the ear wrestlers and combat fighters commonly get from competition, but Steve-O took a short cut -- laying his right ear under Jon's belt and having Jon literally hammer the belt.

It took a few swings, but as expected, Steve's ear quickly became a bloody mess.😱

The stupid human stunt is part of his 'Bucket List' multimedia comedy special, which dropped on Tuesday -- and Steve describes it as a compilation of things he wasn't able to do on "Jackass."

Steve-O says he worked on this project for 5 years, and got comedian Bill Burr for the opening sequence, and he dropped more than $150k just on the production of that 90 seconds of footage.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Steve-O says he tried shopping the special around to numerous different streaming platforms, but it was just too intense ... so he just released it independently on his own site instead.

Check it out if you want, but heed the warning, it looks like some folks in his live audience passed out watching the graphic footage. Take this ear footage as a test of your constitution!

Bam Margera Gets Britney Spears-Inspired Tat ... We've Been Through Similar Battles

Bam Margera got some fresh, new ink while on the road to recovery, and this piece pays homage to Britney Spears ... someone with whom he says he has alarming similarities.

The former "Jackass" star hit up First Hand Tattoo in Pennsylvania and got the Brit-inspired tattoo, which reads, "Britney Spears ❤️ Oops they did it to me too!"

He says the meaning behind it is all about the "Florida shuffle" -- a phrase used to describe substance abusers with good health insurance in the Sunshine State. They're constantly sent to various rehab centers which repeatedly charge their insurance.

THEY DID IT TO ME TOO BRITNEY!!!
TikTok/@nikkisobeck

Bam says that describes him to a T, and points to Britney's time in her conservatorship as being painfully similar to what's been going down with him -- he's dragging his interventionalist for allegedly cashing in by keeping Bam in rehab.

Bam says he's done "the Guinness book of world records of longest Florida shuffle of nearly 2 years" ... which includes 10 back-to-back rehab stays that cost a total of $660,000.00.

He adds he's sick of the "controlling c***suckers that act like they care for your well-being when it's all about money."

THE BOYS ARE BACK
Steve-O

BTW, this isn't the first time he's compared himself to Britney -- he called himself "the Britney Spears of 'Jackass'" while working on standup material with Steve-O earlier this year.

TAKING BIG STEPS FORWARD

As we reported, Bam recently celebrated being 1 month sober after going in and out of rehab this year, and sources told us he's been spending his time with his girlfriend, Dannii, on a farm outside Philadelphia.

LOOKING GOOD
@captiancremebrulee

We were told he's been losing weight, getting back into skateboarding and has kept a tight circle of positive influences around him ... all good things for the guy.

BAM MARGERA SE HACE UN TATUAJE INSPIRADO EN BRITNEY SPEARS ... Hemos pasado por batallas similares

Bam Margera se hizo un nuevo tatuaje mientras se recuperaba, rindiendo homenaje a Britney Spears, alguien con quien afirma que comparte algunas alarmantes similitudes.

La ex estrella de "Jackass" fue a First Hand Tattoo en Pennsylvania y se hizo un tatuaje inspirado en Brit que dice: "Britney Spears ❤️ ¡Uy, me lo hicieron a mí también!"

Dice que el significado detrás de todo esto es el "Florida shuffle", un término que se utiliza para describir a los adictos a sustancias que tienen un buen seguro de salud en el estado. Estos son enviados constantemente a diversos centros de rehabilitación que cobran repetidamente su seguro.

¡también me lo hicieron a mí!
TikTok/@nikkisobeck

Bam dice que eso lo describe perfectamente y señala que el tiempo que pasó Britney bajo tutela es dolorosamente parecido a lo que ha estado viviendo. Él está acusando a su intervencionista de supuestamente sacar provecho al mantenerlo en rehabilitación.

Bam dice que ha hecho "el libro Guinness de los récords mundiales por la más larga lista de internaciones en Florida en casi dos años", que incluyen diez estancias de rehabilitación consecutivas que costaron un total de 660.000 dólares.

Añade que está harto de los "hijos de puta controladores que actúan como si se preocuparan por su bienestar cuando todo es cuestión de dinero".

Por cierto, esta no es la primera vez que Bam se compara con Britney. Se llamó a sí mismo "la Britney Spears de 'Jackass'", mientras trabajaba en material de standup con Steve-O a principios de este año.

DANDO GRANDES PASOS HACIA ADELANTE

Como informamos, Bam celebró recientemente estar 1 mes sobrio después de entrar y salir de rehabilitación este año, y fuentes nos dijeron que ha estado pasando su tiempo con su novia (Dannii) en una granja en las afueras de Filadelfia.

viendose bien
@captiancremebrulee

Nos dijeron que ha estado perdiendo peso, que ha vuelto al skate y que ha mantenido un estrecho círculo de influencias positivas a su alrededor, todas cosas buenas para el chico.

Bam Margera 1 Month Sober ... Skating Like A Pro Again

Bam Margera has hit a fantastic milestone on his road to recovery ... we're told he's been sober for a month and is even hitting the skate park again.

Sources close to Bam tell TMZ ... Bam recently reached the 1-month mark and has been living on a farm owned by another professional skateboarder just outside of Philadelphia.

We're told he's been on the farm with his girlfriend, Dannii -- the 2 have been going to the gym every day and hiking with their dogs, and Bam's lost a ton of weight ... which has given him the ability to start skating again, and he's once again making it look easy.

LOOKING GOOD
@captiancremebrulee

Our sources say he's been loving getting back into the sport, but more importantly, has kept a really tight circle of positive friends and influences. Dannii even gave him an ultimatum that seems to have helped -- he picked her over the booze.

We're told the former "Jackass" star feels this is the first time he's wanted to get sober for himself ... as opposed to being forced by family or friends through an intervention.

As we reported, Bam's been in a legal battle with his estranged wife, Nikki, over custody of their 5-year-old kid, Phoenix -- she was granted temporary sole custody of the boy last month, following an arrest and citation for separate instances of public intoxication. Bam has been able to FaceTime with Phoenix 4 times a week.

BTW, Bam's brother, Jess, revealed earlier this year Bam destroyed a guitar they got from Billy Idol in a fit of rage. We're told Bam and Dannii hung out with the singer in Philly last weekend after a concert, and Billy actually signed a new guitar for him.

Way to go, Bam ... keep it up.
