TMZ has learned that professional jackass Steve-O has fessed up to felony coke charges -- he just changed his plea to guilty in an L.A. court.
His lawyer Barry Sands tells us that O-town decided to change his plea after making a deal with the judge: If he enrolls in a narcotics program and stands "on good behavior" -- that's probably complicated when you're talking about Steve-O -- the case will get tossed.
Steve-O's got 48 hours from today to enroll in the program -- clock's tickin'.
It's hard to say why Steve-O feels the need to risk bodily injury when someone starts to film him -- but who's complaining?
TMZ caught up with the "Jackass" star outside of Les Deux last night. He was determined to do a backflip off the hood of a car, but couldn't find anyone willing to lend him their ride. Finally, he secured a black SUV to vault off of and he pulled off the leap ... kind of.
Steve-O is the new, er, face of PETA. The jackass is taking it all off, again, but this time it's for a cause. In the new PETA ad, which will be revealed today during L.A.'s fashion week, Steve-O is getting cheeky. The ad claims he'd rather go naked than wear fur, but in all probability, he'd just rather go naked anyway.
It doesn't take a genius to know that animal cruelty is wrong, and this ad proves it.
For all you Steve-O fans out there, your wildest fantasies may actually become a reality. Your dreams of rolling with the homie for a fun-filled evening of adventure -- are just a few clicks away. Partywithastar.com is giving away a night with the jackass himself. The lucky winner will receive a two-day hotel stay, a $1000 Visa gift card, round-trip airfare and a VIP dinner! (No, the second-place winner will not receive three days with Steve-O.)
Not mentioned, but likely to be a part of the night if Steve-O's usual shenanigans are any indication -- will be sneaking into a Hollywood club, smoking funny cigarettes and maybe even visiting a local institution, like jail! Good luck!
Steve-O is a lot of things -- most of which involve pot -- but "self-help guru" is not a title that comes to mind. Until now, kinda.
In his new reality show, "Dr, Steve-O," he's looking to "de-wussify America, one wussy at a time" -- which, strangely enough, is also Dr. Phil's new motto (not).
According to the casting site for the show, Steve-O is looking for people who need "an injection of COOL" to help them become "a cooler dude." And by "cooler dude" they mean a guy who can dance around with pot while in front of cops -- without getting arrested.
Steve-O rapped for the cameras, smoked (what looked like) a joint and offered photogs (what looked like) weed outside of a trendy West Hollywood hotspot last night. If it were anyone else, it might be shocking. But it's Steve-O.
The soon-to-be star of his own TV show, "Dr. Steve-O," was outside the Rainbow Bar and Grill puffing on (what looked like) a spliff, when he decided to give paps a taste of his song, "Paparazzi Beatin'," -- which is about beating up photogs who don't take his picture. Crave attention much?
Just to raise the "shock value" another notch, Steve-O then pulled out a bag of (what looked like) weed and offered the nearby lensmen (what looked like) a nugget.
A star who wants to have his picture taken and gives out (what looks like) free pot? A paparazzo's dream come true!
We've seen celebs ask photogs for gasoline, money, and directions, but this was a first -- asking the paparazzi for pot!
Steve-O, known for blazing a little herb in public, was spotted in New York City on Friday, where one photog asked him to "do something for us, crazy? Do something random!" Though the only "crazy" thing he could come up with was flashing his obscenity-covered knuckles, Steve came through when he then asked the pap if he had any weed.
The photog was unable to accommodate the "Jackass" star, forcing poor Steve-O to retreat in defeat.
Lindsay Lohan was spotted leaving The Roosevelt Hotel with Steve-O -- a curious companion for someone straight out of rehab.
The "Jackass" star was seen in the backseat of Lohan's Mercedes as the fiery starlet drove off after a night at Teddy's nightclub. Also at Ted's; sultry Penelope Cruz and former "Buffy" kid-sis Michelle Trachtenberg.
Across town at Boulevard 3, Virginia Madsen, "Transamerica" star Kevin Zegers, and second man-on-the-moon Buzz Aldrin -- who repeatedly refused to sign autographs -- celebrated the release of "The Astronaut Farmer" at the after-party of the premiere.
All this and more in today's other-worldly Star Catcher.
Kevin Federline's got a trusty new sidekick -- Steve-O.
TMZ spotted the Fed-Ex and the "Jackass" star chatting, hugging and posing for photos outside Maxim Magazine's 7th Annual Super Bowl party at the Sagamore Hotel. The celeb-packed bash was also attended by Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo, a camera-shy Scarlett Johansson, Snoop Dogg, pop star wannabe Brooke Hogan and Jamie Foxx. The evening included a special performance by Fergie and Will.i.am.
The Dutchess also performed at the Ocean Drive Magazine party, performing far better than J.Lo and Marc Anthony's botched duet. Guests included tumblesome trainwreck Tara Reid, Hulk Hogan, leggy Stacey Keibler and former *NSYNCer Joey Fatone.
Check it out in this high-kicking Super Bowl edition of Star Catcher.
There's no better way to start off the morning than with a new Steve-O jam.
The "Jackass" star turned wannabe rapper gave TMZ a taste of his new music on the streets of Hollywood last night, breaking into a song about cocaine. With lyrics like "crack's coming back, full scale attack, lips torched up, there's no need to be wack," Mike Tyson would be proud.
Steve-O also said to expect an album, tour, movie and possible TV show from him in the coming year. Can't wait!
If a "Jackass" star is calling you "abusive," you know you're in trouble.
TMZ got the first look at a video ad for peta2 -- the youth-centric offshoot of PETA -- in which the one and only Steve-O lashes out against animal cruelty in the circus. The daredevil, who was once a circus clown after attending the Ringling Bros. Clown College (go figure!), goes on a heated tirade against his former teachers, calling them "a bunch of dicks" for their alleged treatment of animals.
Happily, Steve-O has no issues with cruelty to himself, and as far as we can tell, he won't stop his own ridiculous antics.
We're not screwing around; Steve-O had his, er, self immortalized in concrete last night.
TMZ's favorite train wreck, second only to Tara Reid, depantsed on the red carpet for the premiere of "TV: The Movie," and proceeded to dunk his junk into a slab of wet cement ... making some sort of twisted "Jackass" version of the handprints at the famous Mann's Chinese Theater in Hollywood.
After he squirreled it away in concrete, Steve-O proudly exclaimed, "That looks like I'm huge!" Whatever you say Steve, but it looks like there's a lot less twig than berries, if you know what we mean, and we think you do.
Exactly one year ago today, TMZ started with a bang -- well, more like a cringe-worthy screech -- when Stavros Niarchos crashed Paris Hilton's Bentley into a parked truck outside a Hollywood club. Though the two quickly sped off, they were spotted moments later, talking to LAPD with friends Kimberly Stewart and Talan Torriero. There was no field sobriety test conducted before the group left. Ah, perks. Steve-O smokes pot. No surprise there. The big shock came when the "Jackass" star was caught pulling what appears to be marijuana out of a plastic bag, then sniffing it in front of a patrol car. Steve-O then approached the officers inside and said, "We saw you." Steve-O responded, "You saw me with the weed." After a brief exchange, the officers let Steve-O go, no questions asked. Cool. Firecrotch. It's a now an infamous term and it started right here with Greasy Bear himself, Brandon Davis. The oil heir unleashed a torrent of nasty comments about Lindsay Lohan, while club-hopping Paris Hilton laughed with approval. The "firecrotch incident," has spawned several copycat outbreaks and even an official song, but nothing beats the original rant.
WARNING: Steve-O loves to talk about sex and drugs. This story will include a few examples of that fact. There was no way around it.
They say you haven't "made it" in Hollywood until you've slept with a bonafide star. By that standard, Steve-O has yet to "make it." But he is getting closer.
The "Jackass" star recently took over the mic at the The Laugh Factory in Hollywood, where he regaled an audience filled with stars like Jon Lovitz, Bam Margera and other "Jackass" alums with graphic tales of his romantic conquests. He even politely dropped the name of one minor television personality he shared an "in-depth" relationship with.
"I did f*ck one famous b*tch ... Robin from 'The Real World' ... Hey you guys might not think that that's a big deal, but while i was f**king her in the hotel room, the b*tch was on the TV."
But Steve-O didn't just expose his own bedroom secrets, he called out Bam Margera on a highly publicized "alleged" fling with a former "Newlyweds" star. "How long did you f*** Jessica Simpson for?" Steve asked. An embarrassed Margera could only smirk before burying his face in his arm.
Steve-O also offered up a few nuggets of wisdom for the future Hollywood stars in the crowd, advising each to invest in a good doctor and a good lawyer ... Click here and let Steve-O explain why.
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.
