Brad Pitt -- Retired Pot 'Artist'

Back in his day, Brad Pitt could roll a joint like nobody's business -- but those days are over.

Brad Pitt

Bill Maher told Brad Pitt he thought Brad rolled the most perfect joints ever, but Brad has since left his pot smoking days behind him. He told Maher, "I'm a dad now, you want to be alert."

Hey, Snoop does it just fine.

Brad Pitt -- Mr. Perfect?

Could Brad Pitt "beat a nun to death on a pile of dead puppies" and still be loved by America?

Brad Pitt -- play video

Bill Maher threw out an interesting theory about Brad on his show last night -- right to his face -- so now we ask ...

(BTW -- Bill Maher also told Brad Pitt he's seen him roll the most perfect joints ever. But amazingly enough, HBO didn't put that clip online.)

Adrian Grenier -- Happy Trails to You!

'True Blood' Actor -- Truly a Vamp?

Studly bloodsucker Bill Compton on "True Blood," a.k.a. Stephen Moyer, never left the dark of his limo as he signed autographs in Hollywood -- you know, so the deadly UV rays outside wouldn't burn his undead skin.

HBO -- S-J-Pissed Over Fake "Sex"

A bunch of Boston nightspots are getting stilettoed after they tried to stop other bars from holding "Sex and the City" parties -- by pretending to be HBO.

The network filed suit in New York against a group of unnamed party promoters in Beantown, pretending to be HBO. The phonies allegedly sent cease-and-desist letters on fake HBO letterhead to other bars, trying to intimidate them from throwing "Sex and the City"-themed parties around the time of the movie's release.

AJ Soprano's Place Whacked By a Crane

TMZ has learned that "Sopranos" star Robert Iler owned one of the units in the building damaged in today's massive crane collapse in NY.
Robert Iler
Iler, who played A.J. Soprano on the hit show, was home at the time, felt the impact and heard people screaming. He quickly escaped the building without injury. Sources tell us the whole episode was "very traumatic" for the young star as he saw all the devastation first hand. Iler has lived in the building several years. His apartment was not affected.

The 200-foot crane collapsed on Manhattan's Upper East Side, where the 32-story luxury condo complex was under construction. Two workers were killed and one was seriously injured.

This is the second such crane collapse in nearly three months.

Story developing ...

Nick Stahl Who?

It was a frenzy of stars last night in the Thirty Mile Zone, and TMZ cameras were fortunate enough to catch some amazing footage of ... Nick Stahl. You know, Nick Stahl of HBO's "Carnivale?" You know, ...you remember him from his stellar performance in "The Sleepy Time Gal" in 2001? No??


Nick and a buddy were actually surprised that paps swarmed them as they walked down the Sunset Strip. Doesn't he know who he is?

Uh, maybe not.

Gimme $50 on AJ to Kill Tony!

If you're looking for another way to make tonight's finale of "The Sopranos" even more suspenseful than it probably will be, perhaps putting a little action on it might help. It's what Tony would want you to do.
The Sopranos
The folks over at graphpaper.com have created a handy "Sopranos" chart to help make your predictions. Think Christopher will appear in a hallucination? Think Paulie Walnuts commits suicide? Well gather up a few friends and put your money where your mouth is.

But be sure you pay up if you lose -- you don't want to be swimming with the fishes.

"Entourage" Enrages Condo Residents

EntourageHBO's "Entourage" has invaded a Hollywood condo complex, and the residents aren't happy.

The condos, located at the foot of celeb-hiker favorite Runyon Canyon, has become home to the boys of "Entourage," along with a large crew, lights and cameras.

At first, residents of the complex, including porn king Ron Jeremy, were told that shooting would go on for a week or so, and that their daily lives wouldn't be affected. But a TMZ source inside the complex reveals that the group has been anything but unnoticeable. Our source said that crew dudes can be found lounging in a top-floor gym, and that the pool area has become a smoking section for the show's grips and cameramen. "It has definitely made a huge impact having the crew roaming around," said the source.

For those who watch the show, the reason for the new location is that the new season finds "Johnny Drama" finally getting his own place. The residents at this condo just wish it wasn't in their building!

TMZ contacted HBO reps for a comment, but didn't hear back by press time.

Jake's New BFF

Forget Matt and Lance, Jake Gyllenhaal has a new buddy.

Jake was spotted in San Diego last week, visiting the set of HBO's pilot "John from Cincinnati," where his pal Austin Nichols plays the lead. Gyllenhaal arrived and was immediately escorted to Nichols' trailer, where they spent most of the day. Austin left the trailer only to grab some grub for the two from catering tables. This photo shows the best friends at a Lakers game in 2006.

Then, this past Saturday, TMZ spies spotted Jake and Austin in Los Angeles, having a quiet dinner at Jar restaurant. The two eluded having their pic taken by paparazzi when they escaped through the kitchen's backdoor. Reese Witherspoon, who has been romantically linked with Jake, was not present.

This is not the first we've seen of Jake and Austin -- their friendship goes back to the 2004 filming of "The Day After Tomorrow." Unlike the trio of Jake, Matt and Lance, this duo appears to be a lasting friendship.

Me and Paris -- One on One?

graphic of a question markHow can I meet Paris for a drink?

Paris HiltonBryant, if you are anywhere in Hollywood (Hyde, Dragonfly, etc.), your chances are more than stellar at bumping into the hotel heiress. The socialite-turned-songstress frequents the clubs in Hollywood as if they were going out of style. By the looks of how friendly Paris is with her fans, it's not too far fetched an idea to think she wouldn't mind taking a minute to toast and cheers!

For a darker side of Ms. Hilton, take a look at this.

"Sopranos" Final Season Hits A High Note

Click here to return to TMZ.comThe final season of "The Sopranos" is setting up to be one of the most anticipated television experiences of the coming year. After an ankle injury for James Gandolfini, the premiere was pushed from its original date of January 2007 to sometime in March. But never fear -- it now appears that production is full swing.

Paparazzi caught up with the "Sopranos" cast on set yesterday in Queens, NY. Fat Joe, who recently added a collaboration with Paris Hilton on her debut album to his resume, was also on set. It isn't clear whether or not he was just dropping by to get his pic taken with some of his favorite stars, or if he will be making a guest appearance in a few episodes. TMZ contacted HBO, and reps would not comment on Joe's presence on set. Our guess is that he will be making a cameo on the hit show, using his already mob-like persona for more than just music.

On another note, Robert Iler, who plays A.J. Soprano (Tony's son), was looking a lot rougher than he has in the past. His character, usually portrayed as a pansy, may be grooming himself to follow in his father's footsteps. The suit and the goatee say, "I'm working for Dad now!" Again, HBO opted not to comment to TMZ, so for now, that's just our theory.

'Deadwood' Tour: Not Enough Whores

DeadwoodTimothy Olyphant plays Sheriff Seth Bullock on HBO's profanity-laced western, "Deadwood." Olyphant took cameras on a quick tour of the set of the show, which features numerous bearded extras ... but not nearly as many whores as he would like.

"That's the problem with televison; not enough whores," Olyphant said.

Check out "Deadwood" every Sunday night at 9PM on HBO.

Cook's 'Tourgasm' -- Fans Dissatisfied

Dane CookDane Cook is one the hottest comedians working today. His fan following is extremely loyal; he has nearly 1.2 million friends on his MySpace page, nearly all of whom post pictures of themselves striking his trademark "Su-Fi" pose.

So when Dane Cook's official Web site sent around an email inviting fans to be part of the filming of the finale of Cook's new HBO show "Tourgasm," his fans responded en masse. What they were expecting was some kind of show... What they got was a lot of standing around, some water, a free poster and just a glimpse of their hero.

Fans were invited to the June 13th event via an email from Cook's management company, New Wave Entertainment. If they responded to the first email, they got a second email saying, "CONGRATULATIONS! You have been selected to be an on-camera guest for the last episode of Dane Cook's Tourgasm for HBO!!!" A third email, sent on the day of the event, gave fans the exact location of the event.

No details about what would happen once fans got there were given.
