Brooke Shields and Jim Belushi survived a minor plane crash at the famous Hearst Castle a few days ago ... once again proving Brooke Shields is nothing short of a real life Zelig.
It all went down on Friday at the private landing strip on the Hearst Castle estate -- San Luis Obispo Sheriff's Dept. tells TMZ Shields and Belushi were being flown to an event at the castle.
The Cessna prop plane landed safely ... but here's the problem -- the pilot forgot to set the parking brake after the plane came to a stop. He was in the back helping Brooke and Jim out ... when the plane rolled into a 2010 Buick SUV. The wing struck the SUV ... but the SUV got the worst of it.
We're told no one was injured, but the NTSB was notified.
This is the 4th time -- that we know of -- that Brooke has landed in the middle of a celebrity news event.
-- item: Brooke Shields "dates" Michael Jackson and then tells all at MJ's memorial.
-- item: Brooke Shields becomes Tom Cruise's Scientology foil ... then gives birth down the hall in the same place and at the same time Suri was born.
-- item: Brooke Shields was the catalyst for the Kiefer Sutherland headbutt incident at a New York bar
-- item: And now ... the celebrity plane crash
If you're a celebrity ... and come within eye-sight of Brooke Shields ... run!

Joan Rivers is calling out Brooke Shields for her weepy speech at Michael Jackson's memorial saying it was less about remembering her "dearest friend" and more about getting some serious "face time."
For the record: Shields admits the last time she saw Michael was 1991.

Kiefer Sutherland is officially off the hook for that whole headbutting incident in NYC back in May ... because it amounted to a bunch of nothing.
The Manhattan D.A. has just rejected the case against the "24" star and we're told it's all because officials determined it was a petty matter that did not rise to the level of criminal conduct.
And it gets even better for Sutherland -- we've learned the L.A. City Attorney is equally unimpressed with the incident and will not try and violate Kiefer's probation from a prior DUI conviction.
Just like Jack Bauer, Kiefer got off virtually unscathed.

Fighting back tears, Brooke Shields addressed the crowd at Michael Jackson's memorial today, telling everyone MJ's favorite song was Charlie Chaplin's "Smile" -- and that's exactly what everyone needs to do on this day.

Brooke Shields and Magic Johnson at Michael Jackson's memorial at Staples Center.
Whether at a TomKat birth, Kiefer Sutherland fight or high profile memorial, you can count on Brooke to be there. She's the new "Zelig."

First designer Jack McCollough, and now Brooke Shields. Looks like her posse is having bad luck.
Somewhere, Kiefer Sutherland is icing down his dome.

Brooke Shields has settled her beef with The National Enquirer.
A few weeks back, a freelance reporter working for the tabloid checked Shields' mother out of her nursing home. According to Shields, her mother, who suffers from dementia, was driven around in an attempt to find a "story." It was disgusting then, and it still seems disgusting now.
The mag responded to these allegations of gross abuse by claiming the reporter had been a friend of Shields' mother for ten years and was merely helping her run some errands. Interesting ....
In the end, the Enquirer has agreed to apologize for the actions of its reporter and make a sizable donation to further research on dementia, reports People Magazine.

Bristol Palin may wanna cover her ears -- Brooke Shields claims she would've swiped her V-card a lot sooner if she wouldn't have had so many issues with body image.
In a ridiculously candid interview with Health Magazine, Brooke said her biggest health regret was "Not learning to love the way I looked earlier. And I think I would have had sex a lot earlier! I think I would have lost my virginity earlier than I did at 22."
Highly surprising since she was only 15 when she got naked in "The Blue Lagoon."

It's been over 30 years since she played a teen prostitute, but Brooke Shields is still a pretty baby.
Here's the 16-year-old back in 1981(left) -- and 28 years later, the 43-year-old version at an event in Hollywood this week (right).
Who wouldn't headbutt a fashion designer for her?!

He was allegedly defending Brooke Shields' honor with that well placed headbutt to designer Jack McCollough's schnoz -- but last night on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," Kiefer Sutherland admitted it's something he "really regrets having happened."

Brooke Shields is claiming a reporter and a photog working for the National Enquirer checked out her 75-year-old mother from her nursing home in hopes of a good "tabloid story."
Teri Shields was signed out of her nursing home Thursday, and Brooke tells People that a reporter drove her mother around New Jersey in hopes of finding a good story. Brooke says her mother suffers from dementia, and claims her mom was allegedly tricked into leaving the facility after the journalist claimed they were friends.
Teri Shields was later found by police in a nearby restaurant, unharmed, having lunch with the reporter. The Enquirer claims the freelance reporter has known Teri for 10 years and was given permission by the facility to check her out.
No one was arrested and charges have not been filed.

We've learned the L.A. City Attorney has contacted the NYPD for all their info on that Kiefer Sutherland headbutting incident last week.
Kiefer is on probation for a DUI conviction in L.A. One of the conditions of probation -- he must obey all laws. The City Attorney could go back to the judge and ask that Kiefer's probation be revoked and that could potentially mean some serious jail time -- around 11 months max.
The City Attorney hasn't made a decision yet.

Brooke Shields has just come out and contradicted her own reps by officially saying Jack McCollough -- the dude Kiefer Sutherland headbutted -- bumped her just before the incident.
Brooke says the statements attributed to her "are neither true nor authorized." She goes on, saying she "was bumped into by Jack McCollough and Kiefer Sutherland became concerned." As we reported, Brooke told friends the day after the incident she was "jostled" by Jack and fell.
Brooke also adds "Kiefer has always been a gentleman in her company."
Sounds like she's on K.S.'s side.

The New York lawyer for Kiefer Sutherland just issued a somewhat cryptic statement about the headbutting incident last week.
Attorney Michael Miller said he was "troubled by the untruthful and self-serving information circulating regarding Kiefer..." We're told he's referring to the statement from the rep for Jack McCollough -- the head-buttee -- in which he calls the incident a "vicious, violent, unprovoked assault."
There were also statements attributed to Brooke Shields, claiming she was in no way involved in the incident. But we know Brooke has told people Jack "jostled" her and she fell.
Miller adds he's confident the Manhattan D.A. will call BS on the assault charge against Kiefer.

Forget about that scratch you saw designer Jack McCollough sporting post-Kiefer Sutherland headbutt, Kiefer did some real damage -- allegedly.
McCollough's rep tells TMZ Jack suffered a broken nose as a result of Kiefer channeling his inner Jack Bauer early Tuesday morning. He even had to have surgery to fix it.
As we first reported, Brooke Shields feels her fall, that set things off between Kiefer and Jack, was more the fault of her 6" heels than the "jostle" from McCollough.
