According to Sheriff Arpaio, DMX attempted to barricade himself in his bedroom at the time of the search warrant but eventually came out, offered no further resistance, and was booked.

Mr. Toad's Wild Meth Ride

Published | Updated

The girl who played Hilary Duff's BFF on the hit show "Lizzie McGuire" pled guilty to possession of crystal meth last year -- but managed to keep the whole thing under wraps.

Lalaine Vergara Paras, who played Miranda Sanchez on the Disney Channel show, was popped back in July and charged with felony possession of methamphetamine. But before the plea there was lots of drama. Paras was a no-show for a court appearance and the judge issued a $50,000 bench warrant for her arrest -- but it was recalled when she showed up in February.

Paras pled guilty to the crystal meth charge, but her record will be expunged when she completes a drug-treatment program. She's enrolled in the Asian American Drug Abuse Program.

Calls to Lalaine's reps were not returned.

Neighbors to McCartney: STFU!

Published | Updated

Jesse McCartney is the perfect neighbor -- if you're a vampire!

J-Mac's neighbors are pissed about the former boybander's parties -- they don't get going until 2:30 in the frickin' morning and they last all night. A notice was sent around the neighborhood that calls out Jesse by name and tells people to call 911 when things get out of control.

We're told cops have busted up several of the 20-year-old's ragers, but no charges have been filed.

But really, who didn't see this coming? We got a photo of Jesse back in 2006 -- when he was 18!!! -- boozin' it up in a Hollywood club. The signs were there, people!

Aaron Carter Screws the Pooch

Published | Updated

Aaron Carter's doggies were collateral damage when the cops busted him for allegedly driving with a bunch of marijuana.

Carter was popped in Texas yesterday on charges of possession of at least two ounces of pot. But he had two pit bulls with him at the time -- one puppy and one full-grown.

When AC was taken to jail, his dogs went to the pound. As soon as he was sprung, he went to Sam B. Coffey Animal Shelter to retrieve them -- and had to pay a $70 impound fee.

The woman who runs the shelter tells TMZ that Carter's dogs "were very, very well-trained" and that Aaron was "extremely happy to see his dogs and they were well cared-for."

He might have been just "extremely happy" not to be in jail anymore.

Jessica Sierra Loves Her Some 'Crackers'

Published | Updated

"American Idol" reject Jessica Sierra called her aunt from jail -- after being arrested this weekend -- to ask if anyone called her attorney and to say, "I don't give a f**k what they say happened." A winning attitude!

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.

UPDATE: Jessica was in a Florida courtroom this morning and pleaded not guilty to violating her probation. She was ordered to remain in jail until her next hearing on December 20.

'Idol Castoff' Another Big Bust

Published | Updated

Just two weeks after being sentenced to a year of probation, "American Idol" season four finalist Jessica Sierra was arrested again. Oh, how the wannabeens have fallen.

Officers were called to the Full Moon Saloon in Florida around 2:00 AM today, where she allegedly caused a disturbance. When the popo asked her to leave, she refused and was popped.

According to the charge report, Sierra was charged with two misdemeanors (disorderly intoxication and obstructing or opposing an officer) and two felonies (possession of cocaine and felony battery). She is currently in the Orient Road Jail with no bond.

Sierra, who finished tenth on "Idol" back in 2005, was given probation just two weeks ago for an April incident in which she threw a glass at someone's head. The judge in that case will almost certainly throw the book at her for violating probation.

Sierra spent several months earlier this year in rehab and will be appearing in the new VH1 show "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew." We're thinkin' it didn't work so great.

Megan Fox Pro-Pot

Published | Updated

"Transformers" star and Angie Jolie look-alike Megan Fox admits to dabbling in illegal substances -- and loving a little weed.

In a recent interview with Maxim magazine, the lippy starlet admitted that she's tried nearly every drug under the sun. "I've done drugs, and that's how I know I don't like them."

Ever the consumer reporter, Fox "tried several things" in order to "make an informed decision, but I didn't enjoy anything other than marijuana." In fact, says Fox, "I don't even think of it as a drug -- it should be legalized." Is it 4:20 yet?

Fox also discusses the white powdery stuff, and she's not talking snow. Says Fox, "Cocaine is back with a vengeance ... Celebrities aren't trying to hide it, except when people have camera phones."

"I know about five people who aren't on drugs today, and I'm one of them." Perhaps Fox should make some new friends.

The lovely Tara Reid hit Las Vegas over the weekend -- and let's just say she partied without a break til' the break of dawn!

Taradise landed at JET nightclub at the Mirage around 3:00 AM, and her party sipped Grey Goose vodka in the VIP area. Sources inside the club tell TMZ this was the last stop on a whirlwind Vegas club tour. She closed down the club -- leaving at 4:30 AM! The early bird catches the worm -- the tequila worm!

Tara had the nerve to ask a drunk dude to leave her VIP booth ... because he was wasted. Pot, kettle, kettle, pot.
