Drugs & Alcohol

Only Adam Lambert really knows for sure if that lit cigar he passed Miley Cyrus at his Halloween party contained the devil's weed ... and over the weekend, he dropped a pretty big clue.

Lambert was at LAX when a photog asked point-blank about the photo TMZ posted, showing the former "Idol" superstar handing Miley something that looks like (and probably was) a big, fat blunt.

You gotta see Lambert masterfully bob, weave and deflect when asked about it -- but then came the big moment ... when the photog said, "If it was a joint, say nothing."

The reaction pretty much says it all.

Now excuse us ... we have some Funyuns to eat.

Josh Brolin has 2 things down -- fighting, and making-up ... and he did both in the most entertaining bar fight we've seen all year.

It's 2 AM Friday. The bouncers at O'Briens Irsh Pub in Santa Monica were closing up, but a VERY drunken Josh wasn't ready to call it a night. One of the bouncers maneuvered Barbara Streisand's stepson outside, but Josh wasn't having it ... and that's when the fun began.

Slosh was not exactly in top fighting form. You see his arms flail but few punches connect.

As you probably know, this isn't Josh's first bar fight. He famously got arrested in Shreveport, LA outside a bar while shooting a movie. He was also busted on Jan 1, 2013 for public intoxication.

The bouncer tricked Josh into believing that they had been hugging earlier, and that's when the fight turned into one, gigantic bear hug.

The bouncer attempts to hail a cab for the 47-year-old actor, but the video ends as Josh breaks loose and runs into the sunset.

We're told department officials told Richards they were pissed off that Charlie dared to tell TMZ Bob and Max were not being protected by the department. As you probably know, Charlie railed on DCFS Friday, telling us they care more about Brooke Mueller overcoming drug addiction than they do the safety of his kids.

Adam Lambert lit up the joint earlier this week ... and then handed it to Miley Cyrus.

TMZ obtained this photo -- taken at Bootsy Bellows nightclub in West Hollywood -- showing a costumed Adam and Miley passing what sure appears to be a blunt.

Miley -- who came as Lil' Kim -- is no stranger to puffin' trees, but Adam Lambert ... who knew?

Charlie Sheen says his ex-wife Brooke Mueller is a dangerous, EVIL whore who's putting their twin boys in SERIOUS DANGER ... and now, Charlie says he's on a mission to stop her before it's too late.

Sheen just called TMZ and told us ... his 4-and-a-half year old twin boys Bob and Max have already suffered physical and emotional damage from the time they've spent in Brooke's care. In fact, he says they're very close to getting kicked out of school.

Charlie says the boys are deathly afraid of Brooke's house -- which is covered in pet lizards, various insects and other critters -- and they suffer night terrors after spending time at the home.

Charlie also says Bob suffered a bad rash on his face after recently spending time with Brooke -- a rash that "looked like somebody burned him."

Charlie says he's complained to L.A. Child Services -- but they refuse to help. Instead, Charlie claims, Brooke is getting MORE custody ... and he doesn't understand why.

Sheen ripped Child Services on a Twitter rant last night -- calling them "doosh bags" who have done nothing to protect his children. He also called Brooke an "evil and pathetic über loser" and a "whore."

Sheen says Brooke is supposed to get her first unsupervised overnight visit with the twins tonight -- and Charlie says he's very afraid of what could happen.

Charlie says he's not sure if Brooke is back on drugs, but he is sure about one thing -- "She's as awful a parent and a person as you can possibly draw up."

Lamar Odom was drunk -- very drunk -- at Beacher's Madhouse in Hollywood Wednesday night ... eyewitnesses tell TMZ -- and it's a dramatic, depressing turn in his life.

People who were present tell us ... Lamar showed up with several guys. In short order Lamar was hanging at the bar doing shots of Patron. For the next 3 hours, Lamar could not be seen without a glass of champagne.

Our sources say he was "hammered." One witness -- who knows the difference -- says Lamar didn't seem like he was on drugs. It appeared to be alcohol-fueled.

Lamar stayed until closing at 2 AM. By 2:30 AM he was in the valet area talking about where to go for the "after party."

David Ortiz wasn't chugging cheap champagne during his crazy World Series celebration last night -- the stuff Big Papi was pounding runs $100,000 per bottle ... TMZ has learned.

You've seen the pics -- Ortiz hoisting a giant gold bottle of bubbly, while the rest of his Boston Red Sox teammates celebrated their victory over the St. Louis Cardinals.

Now, we've learned ... the booze was a 15 litre bottle of Armand de Brignac Nebuchadnezzar Champagne, also known as "Ace of Spades" ... and it runs between $100k and $150k in the club scene.

These bottles are SUPER rare -- a Russian billionaire once splurged on a bottle for Zac Efron and Heather Graham when he spotted the actors at a bar in Chicago.

Michael Jackson would be appalled at the way people are disparaging Conrad Murray .... so says the doctor who just got out of jail for killing the singer.

Dr. Murray -- who clearly uncapped a tube of Just for Men since his release from jail -- says unequivocally -- "I never harmed him [Michael]."

Well the Jonas Brothers finally explained absolutely ... NOTHING about why the band is dunzo during a bizarre GMA interview this morning.

Nick Jonas came closest to breaking down their issues when he acknowledged, "We've had some complications in the group for a long time, without addressing them."

Nick seemed to be talking about disagreements over music -- but it's hard to say for sure since he was so damn evasive!

As we've told you ... Joe Jonas was spotted around Hollywood with a well-known addiction specialist days after the guys pulled the plug on their concert tour. Joe and his bros never addressed that -- though to be fair ... GMA never asked.

Watch the clip Jonas fans ... maybe you can figure out what the hell really happened.

Pauly D's got his work cut out for him with his new baby mama -- so claims the daddy of her 1st child ... who has some serious words of warning for the "Jersey Shore" star.

Meet 33-year-old Lance Gerbino, the father of Amanda Markert's 5-year-old son. His friend just posted this video on Instagram, where Lance calls Amanda a crazy "drug addict stripper" -- something she strenuously denies.

Lance is no angel himself -- as we reported, one reason Pauly wants full custody is because there's a felony drug arrest warrant out for him, and he thinks there's a danger if Lance comes in contact with the baby.

As for Amanda, her lawyer tells us, "Amanda is an extremely wholesome young lady who is goal oriented." He adds she's never been a stripper and has absolutely no drug issues.

BTW ... Lance's friend has taken the video off Instagram.

Lindsay Lohan wasn't reaching for a wine bottle in the photo that surfaced Wednesday morning ... it's an optical illusion ... that's Lindsay's story, anyway.

Sources close to Lindsay tell us, Lindsay was actually reaching for her purse and cell phone on the same counter top, and the photo angle (above) was set up to make it look like she was grabbing the wine bottle instead.

Lindsay is adamant she has NOT fallen off the wagon -- in fact, she's telling friends she's been faithfully attending multiple AA meetings per week, and has continued therapy since leaving rehab.

The photo was taken at a friend's house ... who clearly had wine while Lindsay was visiting. Sounds like a bad idea, but we're told Lindsay has overcome her desire to drink, and has no problem hanging with boozers.

In fact, as we reported, LiLo thinks she's doing so well ... she's ditched her sober coach, insisting she can handle sobriety on her own.

Lindsay Lohan has more legal woes -- TMZ has learned she's just been sued over the accident where her Porsche rammed into an semi-truck.

You'll recall, Lindsay was late for a Malibu shoot for the movie "Liz and Dick" when she roared up Pacific Coast Highway in a black Porsche 911S at speeds that exceeded 60 MPH.

As we first reported, Lindsay lied to cops and said she was a passenger in the car and tried to frame the person who was driving with her. We also reported cops discovered pills in her purse and a water bottle that reeked of booze. Witnesses also said there were pills scattered in the trunk.

The truck driver, James Johnson, claims he was injured and suffered great physical, mental and nervous pain.

2:36 P.M. PDT -- We just spoke to Mary ... she tells us she took a powerful sleeping pill and had some drinks before her flight ... and she shouldn't have done it. She's excited to attend tonight's party.

Porn star Mary Carey had to be dragged off a plane this morning for being too drunk ... threatening to sabotage a huge party with naked people tonight in Florida ... TMZ has learned.

Carey -- who appeared on "Celebrity Rehab" in 2008 for a drinking problem -- is scheduled to be the featured attraction tonight in Key West for an ABC (Anything But Clothes) party.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... Carey got wasted during a red-eye flight from Cali to Florida ... and refused to get off the plane when it landed in Miami. We're told cops had to remove her from the plane, and she told them she had mixed booze with meds.

Carey was not arrested, but police wouldn't let her board her connecting flight to Key West -- though she eventually got there. We're told the ABC party organizers sent a car to pick her up, and she's sleeping it off now.

Dina Lohan drove totally wasted and it's all because the paparazzi drove her to the bottle and then the steering wheel ... this according to her bizarre lawyer.

Dina and her lawyer, Mark Heller, appeared for a routine hearing in her drunk driving case, and then Heller offered up the indefensible defense.

Here's the argument ... Dina's lifestyle presents lots of challenges and stress, brought on by the barrage of photogs that follow her. Those stresses caused Dina to down enough alcohol to register a .20 blood alcohol level as she tooled down the road. Short story -- it's our fault, not hers.

You may remember Heller. He was literally run out of L.A. after getting fired in the Lindsay Lohan shoplifting case.

Heller hopes that the judge will take his argument under consideration in Dina's DWI case.

Lindsay Lohan may have been reaching in the wrong direction last night because it looks like her hand was going straight for a wine bottle.

The pic was taken at a Hollywood Hills home where Lindsay was hanging out before attempting to catch a red eye back to NY. Lindsay got to the airport too late and missed her flight.

There are no photos of Lindsay actually clutching the bottle or drinking but the evidence is ominous.

No publicity is bad publicity, even if that publicity stems from a string of whacked out interviews ... at least that's what the people behind Jenna Jameson's new book tell TMZ.

A rep for Skyhorse Publishing tells us ... the company doesn't believe Jenna's sloppy live TV performances will harm the sales of "Sugar" -- in fact, they think it put the book on people's literary radar.

As for Jenna's claim that she wasn't intoxicated, but simply TIRED during the interviews, a rep for Skyhorse says JJ's story adds up because she had travel delays the night before her 6AM "Good Day NY" interview and barely slept.

Just to be safe -- Skyhorse says it's taking extra steps to make sure Jenna "gets enough sleep" before future interviews.

Good idea.
