Jacksonville Jaguars legend Jimmy Smith pled guilty to possession of cocaine yesterday ... and was sentenced to spend the next six months in residential lockdown.
The former NFL star was arrested in Florida back in April, when cops pulled him over for having excessive window tinting ... then found coke, pot and drug paraphernalia in his car.
The other three charges Smith was facing -- possession of marijuana, using or possessing drug paraphernalia, and operating a vehicle with a suspended license -- will all be dropped as long as he plays by the rules.
Smith was also sentenced to 18 months probation, his license was revoked until his probationary period is over, he has to pay $1,000 in fines and complete weekly counseling and random drug screenings during his six months under house arrest.

Lindsay Lohan doesn't have a lock on getting in trouble -- her bodyguard got detained yesterday in West Hollywood.
Lindsay was at her favorite watering hole -- Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood. Outside the hotel, there was a barricade -- we don't know why. Deputies from the L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. were enforcing the barricade, when a man -- reportedly Lindsay's bodyguard -- tried crossing the line.
The dude was detained and later let go.

Cameron Douglas' girlfriend is now in a drug pickle of her own -- she was busted on Monday for allegedly trying to smuggle Cam heroin while he was in a courtroom facing mega-drug charges.
Cops say Kelly Sott was arrested yesterday after she was caught trying to pass Cameron an electric toothbrush -- which happened to be stuffed with dime bags of heroin -- in a conference room inside a federal courthouse in New York City, according to NBC New York.
Cameron -- son of Michael Douglas -- was in court facing drug charges from his recent crystal meth bust ... the one in which the DEA believes he's been slangin' pounds of meth over the last few years.

"Burn Notice" star Jeffrey Donovan is going to have a rough time in court -- it's not exactly an airtight defense in a DUI case to argue, "I really think I'm only borderline and not too drunk."
We obtained the police report from the Miami Beach PD. The arresting officer wrote he first noticed Donovan after hearing "a loud tire screech behind me." The cop said he saw Donovan's car swerve left to avoid hitting the police car.
When Donovan finally stopped, he didn't serve himself well when he said, "Sorry, I didn't see the red light or your stopped car."
The officer says he smelled a strong odor of alcohol, asked Donovan if he had anything to drink and got this answer: "I had three drinks at the Fontainebleau."
Donovan flunked a field sobriety test and was taken into custody. That's when he said, "The only mistake I made tonight was drinking Benadryl with 3 glasses of wine."
We're thinking that's not necessarily his only mistake.
UPDATE 5:49 PM ET Donovan was just charged with one count of DUI. If convicted he could get 6 months in the slammer, but given that he's a first offender it's unlikely that he'll do any time.

Rap legend Rev Run's teenage son Joseph Simmons Jr. was arrested tonight for possession of marijuana.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the 19-year old was seen allegedly buying the marijuana and rolling a joint while sitting in a car on Manhattan's Upper West Side. We're told he tried to get away by throwing his car into reverse, and nearly backed into the officer's car.
Simmons Jr, known as JoJo on the MTV reality show "Run's House," was also booked for resisting arrest, attempted reckless endangerment, and criminal use of drug paraphernalia.

Finally, Jessica Alba has a reason to frown -- cops busted her perfectly sculpted ass going the wrong way on a one way street!
According to people at the scene, a Santa Monica police officer wrote her up yesterday after he noticed Alba driving through an alley and going the opposite way of the giant posted arrow sign -- which you can see is clearly hanging in the upper left hand corner of the photo.
No celebrity justice here...

One of the school bullies from the "Harry Potter" movies must have taken a botany class at Hogwarts -- cause cops say the 19-year-old was keeping a weed garden in his home.
Jamie Waylett, the guy who played Vincent Crabbe in all five Potter flicks, was arrested in London on Thursday after cops say they found eight bags of weed in a car Jamie and another man were in.
Later that day, cops tell TMZ they raided Jamie's home -- where officials say cops found a bunch of plants "believed to be cannabis plants and equipment for the cultivation of plants."
Waylett and the other man are due back in court in July.

It's only getting worse for the Los Angeles Clippers ... one of their alleged "stars" was busted for DUI early this morning.
Hours after the Clip Squad went down to the Lakers last night, Clipper power forward Zach Randolph was pulled over by California Highway Patrol officers on the 405 Freeway when they spotted Randolph's white Rolls Royce weaving in and out of his lane at around 2:25 AM.
Cops say when they approached the car, they "noticed an odor of an alcoholic beverage emitting from within the vehicle" and proceeded to perform some field tests on the 6'9," 255 pound 27-year-old. Randolph failed those and was arrested for DUI.
Randolph, who already has a previous DUI bust under his belt, is currently behind bars -- being held without bail.
A spokesman for the Clippers tells us, "We'll reserve comment until we've had an opportunity to review the facts."
UPDATE: Randolph was finally released from jail about 30 minutes ago. In a statement released by the Clippers, the team has suspended Zach "for two games for conduct detrimental to the team."

Britney let the world look up her skirt again, but his time, she kept her privates private. At her 25th birthday party, Britney shook her barely covered butt in front of a glass window, showing everyone that she does own panties afterall.
The day after Eddie Murphy's rep denied that his client made comments on a Dutch show questioning the paternity of Scary Spice's unborn child, TMZ obtained the footage showing Eddie doing just that. Maybe the rep figured our phones couldn't call internationally.
"Dodgeball" star Rip Torn's arrest in North Salem, New York wasn't his first run-in with police. In January 2004, Torn was arrested in New York City after crashing into a taxi. Check out his videotaped rant.
