Developing Stories

In a frightening interview with the NY Daily News, from the prison ward at Bellevue Hospital, Brea explained how God came to him in his sleep and told him it was to be his last day on Earth.

He recalls how he left his apartment because a man was trying to put a curse on him, and while riding the train to Brooklyn, he explains, "I felt like Neo from 'The Matrix.' I began hearing voices and feeling powerful ... They were asking about the difference between mom and mother. It was a sign."

By the time Michael returned home he knew he was going to kill his mother. When she asked him to pour water from a pot in which she was cooking chicken, Michael attacked her with a sword, believing a demon had taken hold of her soul.

Michael says, "I was slashing my mom and I heard the police knocking on the door yelling, 'Michael, open up, Michael, open up,' but I knew they wouldn't open the door and stop me because the spirits were protecting me ... I just kept cutting her. No one could stop me. I was doing the work of God."

Fleiss lives in Pahrump, NV -- roughly 60 miles outside Las Vegas.

We're told the fire was put out and there were no injuries. In

, Heidi can be seen talking with the fire chief while carrying one of her infamous birds.

A neighbor told TMZ Heidi had recently installed something in her fireplace and that it appeared the fire originated in the room with the fireplace.

Oksana is plowing through a real page turner -- "California Practice Guide -- Family Law."

The collection is actually a gift we're told ... from lawyer #39 and still standing, Daniel Horowitz.

And how's this for a strange connection. One of the authors of the law books is Kenneth A. Black, one of the judges in Oksana's mediation with Mel Gibson. Oksana has accused Black and everyone else involved in the mediation of strong-arming her into signing an agreement she never read or understood.

In her countersuit, obtained by TMZ, Paris says she was "professional and honorable" promoting Hairtech International. Indeed, she notes in her docs that the head honcho wrote her an email after a shoot, saying, "Hey Paris. I know it was a long day, but baby you 'Rocked.' Just from the takes I saw this is going to be one hellava commercial, you were genuinely amazing."

In it's lawsuit, Hairtech claims Paris was a hair heretic, showing up for interviews wearing competitive products. The company also says by going to jail in 2007, Paris breached an implied term to obey the law.

Sources confirm Quincey Williams filed a police report on Monday -- claiming Mayweather banged a u-turn in his Bentley and then "tried to run him off the road."

We're told police haven't spoken to Floyd yet about the alleged incident.

The Las Vegas Review Journal reports one of Floyd's pals -- Ocie Harris -- was indicted for the attempted murder of Williams back in 2009.

During his concert in New York last night, Kanye brought up the "Today" show drama again (and his allegations that Lauer ran a clip from his interview with Kanye out of context) -- and made the following comment:

"Matt Lauer's not a bad guy I'm sure ... but if you are a child that's being abused by your parent ... or you are a girl being abused by your boyfriend ... the greatest win that you could ever have is for that person to hit you in public. You SEE! YOU SEE! I TOLD YOU!"

For the record -- Matt and the "Today" show insist they did NOTHING wrong.

As for Kanye, he also ranted about the infamous Taylor Swift moment at the VMAs -- saying, "If I wasn't drunk, I woulda been on stage longer."

He continued, "Taylor never came to my defense in any interview .. and rode it and rode it."

Michael Lustig submitted a declaration for Mel in the child custody case -- in which Lustig claims despite Mel's efforts, Oksana never showed an ounce of gratitude.

In the document, Lustig states, "In my experience, Ms. Grigorieva's disposition is generally anxious, depressed and uneasy, and she constantly 'digs' at Mr. Gibson and pushes his buttons."

Lustig adds, Oksana would become a "dark" person when she would argue with Mel ... noting he could often hear her yell at him ... and her words were "sharp, pointed and nasty."

As for little Lucia -- Lustig claims he once advised Oksana to cancel a trip to Moscow because of a terrorist attack in the city ... but she left Lucia behind and traveled anyway.

Oksana survived the trip. As for the custody case ....

Stay tuned

The hearing is over for the day and no decision has been reached.

Oksana was on the stand for a good part of the day, as well as her mother. We do not believe Mel testified.

Oksana was grilled about going to the media to tell her story ... and whether she felt that was in the best interest of Lucia.

As we first reported, Mel (pictured above leaving court) wants to strip Oksana of custody and overnights with the baby. He also wants a monitor for visitation between Oksana and Lucia. Mel wants the new order for 6 months.

According to the lawsuit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, in the wake of The Plaza Hotel incident, Capri demanded "at least One Million Dollars" and if she didn't get the money she allegedly threatened to go to prosecutors in Aspen to get Charlie's probation violated.

The suit claims Capri also threatened "to embarrass him and attempt to damage his career by going to the media with her false tale."

The suit says, "At no time did Sheen assault, batter or threaten Walsh." Charlie also alleges Capri admitted to third parties after the incident she had not been battered or held against her will. And, according to the suit, Capri told the NYPD Sheen acted "like a total gentleman."

The suit, filed by legal pit bull Marty Singer, also accuses Capri of stealing his $165,000 Patek Philippe watch.

In classic, Singer-esque language, the suit describes Capri as "an opportunistic pornographic film star and publicity hungry scam-artist."

We're told the threats began to come in last week, after Bristol and Mark made the finals. Execs on the show told Mark to stop tweeting because it was inciting people. Mark complied.

Sources connected with the show tell us extra security will be on hand tonight for the show. And, if Bristol and Mark head to New York, execs are talking about breaking format and not doing their interview outside in Times Square -- but rather in the studio, where it's more secure.

TMZ broke the story ... a staffer on the show opened a "fan letter" to Bristol on Friday and white powder fell out. Turns out it was talcum powder, but the FBI is investigating nonetheless.

Super producer Teddy Riley -- who worked with MJ on the "Dangerous" album and produced the song "Breaking News" on the upcoming Sony album -- has reignited the Michael Jackson conspiracy theory after twittering that he believes MJ is alive ... somewhere.

Riley wrote, "If people can think Elvis is still alive why the F#*@ I cant [sic] think Michael is still alive."

Just one day before the tweet, Riley received a message from a fan who wrote, "Akon said he believes Michael is in hiding and will be coming back one day. Im curious to know what ya think bout that."

The documents, which were stamped at the court in Texas on Friday, were filed using initials only. Unlike Eva's docs, there is no mention of a prenup.

The mystery dude sprawled on top of Miley may be her rumored new boyfriend, Nickelodeon star Avan Jogia ... but it's pretty hard to tell for sure.

Capri went on "Good Morning America" and claimed she's filing suit against Charlie because, among other things, he choked her. Capri, a porn star, denies she's a hooker. But Burg, who is also the Executive Producer of "Two and a Half Men," thinks otherwise.

Burg re-emphasizes that Capri never told police about any abuse, despite the fact that "she had every opportunity to do so."

Burg says she's concocting her latest story for money and vows Charlie will not pay a penny to settle with her.

Anderson, who sat down with "Good Morning America," described Sheen snorting a "white powdery substance" and recounted the moment when she felt things took a turn for the worse, saying, "When I became really uncomfortable is when he put his hands around my neck."

Anderson -- who was there with her lawyer, Keith Davidson -- said she plans on filing a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court.

UPDATE 9:10 AM PT -- We shot Capri and her lawyer heading into a law office, where the lawyer stated Capri plans on suing for battery and false imprisonment.
