Despite staring down temptation that could break the strongest of men ...
Charlie Sheen did not fall off the wagon at a
Playboy mansion party this weekend -- so says, Sheen's XXX wingman
Ron Jeremy.
TMZ spoke to the Hedgehog who tells us Charlie -- who recently
spent some time in rehab in the wake of
his Christmas Day arrest -- was "totally sober" during their time in the house that Hef built.
Ron also tells TMZ, Charlie was smiling and laughing and was overall in a really good mood that night. Shouldn't come as too much of a surprise ... considering Charlie just recently scored the
sweetest sentence ever for the Aspen incident involving his wife
Brooke Mueller.
Then again, is it even possible to be in a bad mood when you're at the Playboy mansion?
After scoring a
sweet plea deal in his assault case, Charlie Sheen did what any other embattled high-paid TV actor in the middle of a rocky marriage would do ... he threw on silk pajamas and partied at the
Playboy mansion with porn king
Ron Jeremy and some blondes this weekend.
No word if Sheen was asked to
show ID on the way in.
Ron Jeremy says the paparazzo who was arrested for allegedly pepper spraying his buds was served a deal as raw as the pastrami Ron was stuffing his face with while the incident went down.
Here's the story straight from "The Hedgehog's" mouth -- and he says the photog was actually a good guy who may have been responding to a knife threat outside Mel's Diner on the Sunset Strip.
And as a sign of good faith -- Jeremy even did an interview with the dude after the incident went down.
A heated "argument" erupted last night between two porn-stars-turned-wrestlers -- and the dialogue was as tough to swallow as any garage sale quality skin flick. Rubber match in the making!
Check out Evan Stone and Craig Valentine gettin' spittin' mad at each other -- and porn legend Ron Jeremy cleaning up afterward.
Cindy Crawford hit up the Malibu Carnival -- where one of her kids got crazy with a giant inflatable hammer and smacked her in the face.
Apologies to anyone eating breakfast or lunch -- but Ron Jeremy was caught gettin' some serious action over the weekend.
TMZ cameras were at Sexopolis at the Henry Fonda Theatre, where the Hedgehog was spotted slipping the tongue to a ready and willing brunette. Ick!
The lady was also grinding all over the porn star, who later bragged to our cameras about bagging 5,000 women in his lifetime, apparently attempting to break Wilt Chamberlain's record.
Punk pixie Avril Lavigne faced a slew of paparazzi outside of Opera last night. When our camera guy asked Avril how she was doing, she simply replied with a
high-pitched, girly shriek. Point taken.
Ron Jeremy was also at Opera last night -- and he was more than excited to see our camera. "Which one's TMZ?" Ron asked. "You guys are lightning." Guess that makes him the thunder.
Also out on the town: Nicollette Sheridan at Koi with Michael Bolton, Meagan Good signing autographs for fans and Kim Kardashian after a facial.
All this and less in today's monosyllabic edition of Star Catcher.
Brigitte Nielsen brought her freshly rehabaliciousness to the Flava Flav roast -- oh yes, it was a veritable feast of roasting nuts on the purple carpet, including arrestaholic Snoop Dogg, alleged funnyman Joe Rogan, porny Ron Jeremy, squeezed-into-it Carrot Top and the sex-a-luscious Alexis Arquette.
Jerry Springer is seen walking into Mr. Chow, saying nothing. So enjoy it.
Sharon Stone was seen shopping for clothes -- and she needs 'em -- she's got a new BF, supposedly Craig Ferguson -- is there no end to the excitement of
today's Star Catcher?
Flav has found a new "Flavor of Love" -- one of TMZ's cameramen!
TMZ spotted the rapper-turned-reality star on the sidewalk outside of Crustacean on Saturday, where Flav showed off
his rhyming skills for Jack the photog. "Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack talk to Flavor, Jack got sick," rapped Flav, adding, "I love you Jack ... keep frosting Jack!"
Flav wasn't the only rapper out over the weekend -- with photogs catching Juicy J and DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia, Heavy D, Fabolous and Biz Markie.
Also out this weekend were tatty Tommy Lee, Rob Thomas, former baller Rick Fox and former baller Ron Jeremy in L.A. -- the boys hitting up the Prince show at the Roosevelt Hotel -- and Eva Longoria, plus a "Die Hard"- promoting Justin Long in NYC.
All this and more in today's flavaful edition of Star Catcher.
Ron Jeremy, 54-years-old and growing more portly each day, still manages to score with twenty-something chicks. For those unfamiliar, the term commonly associated with a male "
cougar" is a "
dingo."
TMZ spotted "The Hedgehog" last night at Les Deux, where the star of "Anal Princess Diaries 2" and "The Texas Dildo Masquerade" was flirting with a group of females -- with one lucky 26-year-old hanging on and giving the porn star
a few pecks on the cheek.
"Superman Returns" star Brandon Routh was out with fiancee Courtney Ford at Il Sole, where he said another "Superman" flick is definitely happening. Also getting some Sole food; comedian George Carlin, who didn't want to be seen looking like "a bum."
Also spotted: Kelly Clarkson, David Spade and Mark McGrath at Koi -- and a generous Cris Judd (remember him, J.Lo?) in today's kiss-my-Kryptonite edition of Star Catcher.
TMZ has obtained high school yearbook photos of former CIA honcho George Tenet -- and his classmate, porn king Ron Jeremy!
In the early 70s, the two entered Cardozo High School in Bayside, NY. Tenet and Jeremy (who's real last name is Hyatt) played on the soccer team together. They were known for their balls after graduation as well, just in different ways.
Tenet served as editor-in-chief of the school newspaper. Ron's thing was theater.
Tenet is making news for his book recounting his time at the CIA, while Jeremy just released an autobio which made the New York Times Bestseller list.
Jeremy tells TMZ, "We didn't speak much, and didn't have much in common, but I made it to #32 on the bestseller list ... let's see how he does."
