Is there a doctor in the house? TMZ caught up with Dr. Steve-O and beautiful "Real World" Nurse Trishelle, after their Laugh Factory gig last night. Jackass Steve-O took a page from the Michael Richards book-o-laffs and called himself -- not the audience -- the n-word during his act. "I would never call anybody that word, except myself, man," explained the stoney doofus.


So what's the diagnosis? "Medically speaking, I need to go take some bong hits," said Steve-O, who proved once again, that pot does not make you funny.

Either Bam Margera got caught under a flight of pigeons ... or he's the messiest painter alive.

We aren't sure why Bam rocked the "I just lost a paintball fight" look, but if you saw "Jackass: Number Two," perhaps you can imagine what crazy stunt he attempted that created this splattered fashion faux-pas. Whatever it was, we hope someone caught it on tape.

Long before Steve-O first stapled his scrotum to his leg, the "Jackass Number 2" star was actually juggling balls -- instead of inflicting pain to them. Seriously.



TMZ has obtained a photo of Steve-O, aka Steven Gilchrist Glover, during his training at Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College back in 1997. Steve-O was one of only 33 people accepted into the program to which over 2000 applied. After graduation, Steve-O the Clown went on to an illustrious career as a performer for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines.

Good thing he picked up that stapler.

TMZ fav Steve-O is capable of making us laugh in a multitude of ways -- and yes, most of them involve bodily harm. But now Steve-O is taking a crack at a safer form of comedy: stand-up.

"I just had a really big movie come out, and I'm trying to think, 'What do I next?'" Steve-O told the crowd at the Laugh Factory in Hollywood last Friday, where is he is known to take the stage from time to time. "I feel like I'm scrambling for any kind of career other than breaking bones and shoving s**t up my a**."

In his act, he talks about the rap song he recorded with Psychic Realm, which TMZ posted and allowed users to vote on -- 98% of readers thought the song was "dope." But apparently those results could be tainted: "I got all my MySpace friends, I'm like, 'Vote for me! Vote me dope!'"

Steve-O even reads off various comments TMZ readers wrote about him, including, "Steve-O should stick to stapling his balls to his leg."

Seems like he may have a career beyond that now.

Apparently letting leeches suck on your eyeballs and using a human as shark bait doesn't sit well with the people of Orange City, Iowa.

A friend there sent us the picture below with the following account:

Attached is a picture we took just today at the theater here in Orange City. It appears that someone in the community complained to the theater manager regarding the new "Jackass" movie, so look at how they changed it!!

We're guessing Orange City is the type of city that "Footloose" was based on.

Admit it... you just can't get enough of "Jackass." You have every episode of the TV show on DVD and you were first in line to see both "Jackass" flicks. Never fear, there's plenty more where that came from.

An insider at Paramount Studios tells TMZ that they have so much video featuring Chris Pontius, Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, Bam Margera and the whole crew that they will be releasing never before seen scenes straight to DVD on "Jackass 2.5." The studio was also so thrilled with the huge success of "Jackass Number Two" -- which took in $51.5 million in its first two weeks of release -- that they have greenlighted "Jackass Three" and are speeding up production on that release.

Thank god... and you thought you'd have to wait forever to see Steve-O be used for bait.

TMZ's favorite Jackasser called into the Kevin & Bean radio show on KROQ in Los Angeles this morning and was quite excited about the success of the latest "Jackass" movie.

The movie opened at number one last week with $28 million and Steve-O could not have been happier. "We opened up against three movies that like had $80 million dollar budgets ..." he told Kevin & Bean, before trailing off in laughter.

Steve-O also said he is loving the fame that "Jackass" is bringing. "It's crazy, I don't know if I'll ever be in as many magazines as I am right now."

To which Kevin shot back, "You will be ... when you die."

With Jackass Number 2 about to unleash it's vulgar fury on the world, we here at TMZ thought it would be appropriate to commemorate the momentous occasion with our own little Jackass montage, courtesy (of course) of our friend and Jackass alumni turned Wild Boy, Steve-O.

At any given moment you can find Steve-O acting crazy, spilling celeb dirt or even promoting the use of marijuana in order to prolong his 15 minutes of fame. All the while, TMZ has been there to catch it all. Here's our ode to Jackass and Steve-O.

TMZ got up close and extremely personal with perennial maniac Steve-O last night, as the Jackass star unleashed a barrage of secrets about some of Hollywood's leading starlets. Steve-O invited our own Josh Levine inside his private residence, where he touched on everything from sex rumors to feuds. Steve-O even appears to get teary eyed, when discussing his feelings for rumored ex-girlfriend Nicole Richie.

Check out the exclusive video

It was Lindsay Lohan to the rescue last night, after "Jackass" star Steve-O was told he was a persona non grata at popular Hollywood hangout Hyde. When bouncers refused to admit the daredevil past the exclusive velvet rope, Steve-O did what any huge star would do. He name dropped, saying "I'm supposed to meet Lindsay Lohan here!" Apparently, the bouncers weren't amused.

After management instructed him to hit the road, Steve-O began texting Lohan, begging for her to help with the situation.

Before the club drama even began, Steve-O gave a staunch defense of Lohan for TMZ's cameras, blasting Paris Hilton and Brandon Davis for their infamous anti-Lindsay rant.

"You know what's disgusting to me is that f*&%-ing billionaire brat, because how much money has he ever made on his own... zero!"

Lohan eventually arrived, entourage in tow, where she only had to whisper a few words to management before pulling Steve-O into the club.
