Serena Williams -- Face of Anger

Posted Sep 16th 2009 3:19PM by TMZ Staff

We just got video of the Serena Williams U.S. Open rant from a different perspective. It was shot by someone in the stands, and you can clearly see the frustration and anger in Serena's face as she chews out the line judge.

The video starts a few seconds into Serena's explosion -- after she threatened the judge by saying, "If I could, I would take this f**king ball and shove it down your f**king throat."

In our video you can hear her tell the line judge, "You better be freaking glad I don't do that ... you don't know me!"

Even though Serena started saying "freaking" instead of "f**king" -- CBS still bleeped it.

Mischa Barton's a Flappin' Fashion Disaster

Posted Aug 27th 2007 3:04PM by TMZ Staff

The Hampton Social @ Ross welcomed its usual crowd of aging New York celebrities -- and Mischa Barton.

The former "OC" actress arrived dressed like a futuristic flapper bot, with a wacky Willie Nelson headband. Flap, flap, flap away!

Also attending: comedy power couple Amy Poehler and Will Arnett, Sirius mega-millionaire Howard Stern and fiancee Beth Ostrosky -- who wasn't scared off by Howard's heinous shirt. Richard Gere dropped in, as did newsboy Ed Burns with model wife Christy Turlington, a not-so-fresh looking Renee Zellweger, and "SNL" mastermind Lorne Michaels.

Newest alcohol anklet wearer Eve was spotted at the U.S. Open tennis party at the Gansevoort Hotel, and "Sea of Love" actress Ellen Barkin had lunch at the Bread Factory Cafe.

Spotlight Live hosted WWE's "Biggest Fan Party" in Times Square, where wrestlers took the stage -- to sing karaoke! Seen leaving the event were monster-sized wrestler Batista and WWE Championship title holder John Cena.

All this and more in today's Grab Bag edition of New York Star Catcher!

A Name Change for Joaquin?

Posted Sep 1st 2006 4:15AM by TMZ Staff

Didn't Joaquin Phoenix have a different name before?

Yes, Ivette, Joaquin used to answer to another name -- Leaf! But it was not his birth name. He has always been Joaquin, but used the alias Leaf as a child and as a young actor. Around 1989, he dropped that name and returned to Joaquin.

That said, Joaquin will next be seen in "We Own the Night" with Mark Wahlberg, Robert Duvall and Eva Mendes. He will also star with Mark Ruffalo and Jennifer Connelly in the thriller "Reservation Road." Expect both flicks out next year.

Wasn't Patricia Heaton supposed to get a TV show?

Sal, everybody's favorite Barone is indeed supposed to continue on with her television career. "The Path to 9/11" is a mini-series documenting the events which lead up to the tragic event. She can be seen here along with Donnie Wahlberg and Harvey Keitel on September 10 and 11 on ABC at 8/7c.

Her comedy pilot, however, did not get picked up, but, according to ABC president Stephen McPherson, it could be considered for a midseason replacement.
