Arrests

DMX was arrested at 3:00 AM at his home in Cave Creek on seven misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty and four felony drug possession charges. During a search of his home, cops found more than they bargained for -- including a number of weapons and drugs, as well as five pit bull puppies -- and filed additional charges against him.

Rock star Scott Weiland has just been sentenced to 192 hours in county jail for his November DUI arrest. This is Weiland's second DUI offense. He has until May 28 to serve the sentence.

Scott, who was not present in court today, entered a no contest plea through his attorney, Anthony Brooklier. The former Velvet Revolver singer was also ordered to complete an 18-month alcohol program and pay almost $2,000 in fines. He will be put on a four-year summary probation.

Weiland was charged with one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol with a prior conviction, and with an allegation that he refused a chemical test as required by law. We are told he was over the legal limit of .08%, but not by much.

Rapper Snoop Dogg is one step closer to getting his UK visa. Fo' shizzle.

A British court has rejected the government's decision to deny Dogg a visa after he -- and his entourage -- were involved in a fight at Heathrow airport in 2006. Although Snoop and his posse were arrested for the brawl, judges said the gangsta rapper cooperated with the police and didn't retaliate during the altercation. He's a lover, not a fighter.

Andrew Martin, who wrestled under the name Test (boring!), was arrested early Sunday morning for DUI and driving with a suspended license.

Martin was pulled over Sunday morning by the Florida Highway Patrol on State Road 54 after an off-duty officer spotted him driving recklessly. He failed a field sobriety test (get it?) and refused to take a urine test (you get it by now). He posted $500 bail and was released Sunday night.

Bai Ling celebrated pleading guilty to disturbing the peace by drinking a big 'ol glass of wine. Thatta girl!

In her wacked-out mess of a blog, Bai writes, "Theft dismissed! yes! This is it! All the darkness went away, the sunlight really come back to me with a huge smile right now dance in my trailer Yes! Yes! Yes! I will drink a sexy red wine tonight after my filming and celebrate. I am smiling for real!"

Wacktress Bai Ling has pleaded guilty to disturbing the peace (how apropos) after she was arrested last month for lifting two mags and a pack of batteries from an LAX gift shop.

She's been ordered to pay a fine of several hundred dollars, according to Frank Mateljan of the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office. The total amount of what she allegedly stole? $16.22.

In her most recent blog, Bai Ling called her alleged pilfering of $16.22 worth of goods from an airport "an innocent mistake." So now she's making sense?? Doubtful.

The chicken-dancer extraordinaire adds that she is "confident that the truth will be told since I never had any intention of taking items without paying for them." Riiiight.

The L.A. City Attorney thinks Bai Ling's acting isn't the only thing that's criminal.

City Attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan tells TMZ Bai has been charged with petty theft for allegedly stealing two magazines and a pack of batteries from a gift shop at LAX.

Total value of the items -- $16.22. Charging that amount is a felony in 14 states.

TMZ was in an L.A. County Courthouse this morning as Scott Weiland's attorney told us the troubled rocker has just finished a stint in rehab.

Weiland's attorney, Tony Brooklier, says the former STP-er has completed 28 days in a treatment facility and is "doing well."

Weiland was arrested last November and booked for driving under the influence of a drug.

The wacktress was busted by LAX Airport police yesterday after allegedly stealing two magazines and a pack of batteries from a gift shop.

Underneath pictures of herself at the Southwest terminal at LAX, she writes, "Delayed the flight, wondring [sic] again in the airport like a ghost, why can't I just be the sun smile? My heart is a little sad now, casted by the melody of life ..."

Kevin Federline, looking to squeeze the last drops of notoriety out of his celebrity rock, had planned to do a reality show on cable.

But with Britney on the Crazytown express, the Federleezy is putting that show on hold temporarily, reports the New York Post. The series was supposed to show the life of "a single, working dad" -- and presumably the adventures of Federline as well. Ba-dump-bump.

Meanwhile, TMZ spies spotted K-Fed pulling into JFK in advance of some Fashion Week appearances, which makes us wonder: Who's watching the boys, exactly?

Dunst Slings Herself into Rehab

Kirsten Dunst has checked into rehab at the same place where Eva Mendes is getting better and Lindsay Lohan did her stint earlier this year.

Dunst, according to People, checked into the Cirque Lodge in Utah yesterday. "She's not doing well," says a source. "People were pushing her to go in there but there was no intervention ... I'm sure the Heath Ledger thing put people over the edge."

Yesterday, TMZ spotted Mendes, as it happens, taking a day off from Cirque to attend to some "personal business" in L.A.

Rocker Weiland; Also on the Mend

Mercurial rocker Scott Weiland has also entered rehab, though it's not clear where.

Blabbermouth.net reports that the Velvet Revolver frontman went to a "facility" right after his band's Wednesday show in L.A., and according to a band statement, last night's show in San Diego had to be postponed. "Velvet Revolver deeply apologize to their fans and thank them for sticking by the group."

Weiland was popped by cops last November for an alleged DUI.

TMZ has learned rapper Lil' Wayne has been hit with some big time charges -- possession of cocaine, possession of ecstasy and possession of drug paraphernalia. Make it rain!

Wayne, real name Dwayne Carter, was arrested with two others who have been charged with possession of marijuana. Cops say they found 105 grams of marijuana, 29 grams of cocaine and 41 grams of ecstasy pills on his tour bus -- after they stopped at a Border Patrol checkpoint.

Police also found $22,000 in cash and a 40-caliber pistol, but Wayne, we're told, does have a permit to carry a concealed weapon in the state of Florida. They tell us they're checking to see if that carries over to Arizona.

Weiland, who was recently charged with driving under the influence of drugs, went on an on-stage rant about not believing everything you hear, and reminding everyone that VR is not the "Mormon Tabernacle F**king Choir." Ya think?

A source backstage at the show tells TMZ, "Scott looked out of it ... he kept away from the rest of the band and didn't take any pictures."

Scott Weiland has been charged with driving under the influence of drugs with a prior conviction, and with an allegation that he refused a chemical test as required by law.

In a statement from Los Angeles City Attorney spokesperson Frank Mateljan, Scott faces "maximum penalty of one year county jail and a $1000 fine, and a minimum penalty eight days in jail (because of the prior conviction and the refusal to take a drug test). His car could also be impounded for up to 30 days. "

He will be arraigned tomorrow in a Los Angeles County court.

On November 21, the Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver singer was arrested, when he crashed his car while driving on an L.A. highway.

Sierra called her Aunt Sheila on the Monday after her Saturday night arrest for disorderly intoxication, violation of probation and obstruction of justice -- but that's apparently all news to Jess. She told her aunt, "I don't even know what they arrested me for, " adding "I din't fight nobody but the police, little stupid f***ing crackers!"

Here's a hint. Pure class that one.
