Drugs & Alcohol

Thursday 7:21 AM PT -- A rep for Tom tells TMZ ... the ex-manager was actually fired cause he stole more than $86k from the actor. The rep also says Tom's hired an attorney to go after the money .... plus residuals he's owed.

Tom Sizemore's manager is jumping ship on the heels of the actor's arrest this week for domestic violence.

Charles Lago blames Sizemore's continued "violence against other individuals" for the parting of ways and says his company, DTLA Entertainment Group, couldn't continue repping him in "good conscience." Lago had managed Sizemore for 7 years.

TMZ broke the story ... Sizemore was arrested Tuesday for allegedly beating up his girlfriend.

Brock Lesnar may have caught a break -- because despite the fact he allegedly tested dirty TWICE, he'll only face punishment for one violation ... sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ Sports.

It all has to do with the dates Brock's samples were collected ... and when he was notified about the results.

In Brock's case -- he was tested on June 28th and July 9th. But he wasn't notified that his June test came back dirty until July 14th ... 5 days after his second test.

Our sources tell us ... because he wasn't notified until after the second sample was collected, he will only be punished for one violation.

The punishment for a first time banned substance user can range from a warning to a 2 year suspension ... though it can be raised to 4 years if the infraction is determined to be an "aggravating circumstance."

Brock Lesnar tested positive for a banned substance on the DAY OF UFC 200 ... this according to the UFC.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency notified the UFC that a sample collected on July 9th tested positive for the same substance that was found in Brock's 1st failed test, which went down on June 28th.

Holly Holm says she's pretty damn sure she's clean -- because she's been tested for PEDs 14 TIMES in 2016 ... one more than Conor McGregor.

Holm was addressing the media before the big fight this weekend with Valentina Shevchenko -- when she said she's been more than any other fight in the UFC.

"Friday was number 14 just within the last year."

In video posted by MMAFighting.com (around 36:25), Holm says officials usually collect both blood and urine samples for testing.

With Jon Jones and Brock Lesnar dominating the news for allegedly flunking PED tests -- fighters need to be more careful than ever about what they put into their system.

One more thing ... Holm was also asked if she regretted taking a fight with Miesha Tate before a big money rematch with Ronda Rousey.

"I 100 percent stand by [my decision]," Holm said ... "because we're still waiting for Ronda to come back."

Jon Jones says he's NOT A CHEATER -- and says he still believes he can clear his good name.

Of course, Jon was yanked from UFC 200 after he tested positive for 2 banned estrogen blockers -- which are typically used in tandem with certain performance-enhancing drugs to limit side effects.

He has been temporarily suspended from fighting in Nevada -- and a hearing is expected for later this year.

But Monday afternoon, Jon went to Twitter to plead his innocence.

"Don't write me off just yet, I know in my heart that I'm not a cheater," Jones said.

"I trust in the system to help me prove it."

Nooooooooooooo!!!!!

The UFC announced Brock Lesnar has been flagged by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency for a potential violation stemming from a pre-UFC 200 test.

Trace Adkins was 3 sheets during a charity performance which went south, but he's making good by making a big fat donation to a children's hospital.

The country star was performing in Seaside Heights, New Jersey Wednesday for a fundraiser benefiting St. Jude Children's Hospital.

Trace slurred his way through 3 songs -- obviously drunk -- and it got so bad some people in the audience beelined it for the exit.

The singer's had his problems with the bottle ... back in 2014 he got in a fight with a Trace look-alike on a cruise ship. He went to rehab shortly after the ship docked.

As for Wednesday night ... St. Jude's got a windfall. Trace donated his performance fee to the hospital.

Kourtney Kardashian poured her little heart out -- into shot glasses -- during a random pit stop in Massachusetts.

Kourtney turned up Wednesday night at local dive bar The Chicken Box on Nantucket Island, and took matters into her own hands ... pouring Don Julio shots!

She did plenty of damage in her half hour visit ... jumping onstage with funk band The Soul Rebels and shooting a little pool.

MILFs still get down.

Lamar Odom made it to NYC after all and looked fully recovered from his puking session on the plane ... because he beelined it for a strip club.

Lamar was photographed hanging with friends and staffers at CityScapes Gentlemen's Club in Queens on Tuesday night. A far cry from his Monday night -- we broke the story ... Odom was kicked off his Delta flight after vomiting multiple times while attempting to catch a red-eye.

Sources at the club tell us he arrived at 3:15 AM in a white G-Wagon, and chilled in VIP with 3 guys, security, and some chicks. We're told Lamar was not seen drinking.

Queens is LO's home turf and before he supported the local strippers ... he hit up a basketball court to show some love to neighborhood kids.

Yin and yang.

Lamar Odom was taken off a Delta flight Monday night after getting wasted in the airport lounge and vomiting on the plane ... TMZ has learned.

Lamar went to the Delta lounge at LAX before boarding a red-eye for NYC, and according to eyewitnesses was pounding down beers and whisky. By the time he got on the flight, we're told he was wasted.

Two passengers in first class tell TMZ, Lamar went to 4B and sat down, but as the plane was about to pull back he bolted for the front, threw up in the galley and then walked in the bathroom and with the door open threw up again. When he came out of the bathroom, we're told he had vomit on his clothes.

The passengers tell us the flight attendants "gently" escorted Lamar off the plane, and a cleaning crew came on board to deal with the mess. The flight attendants put Lamar's carry-on belongings in a plastic bag and removed them from the plane.

Ten minutes later, Lamar suddenly reappeared and walked down the aisle -- with vomit still on his sweatpants -- and took his seat again. Minutes later, we're told Lamar got up and went back to the bathroom, using the heads of people in their seats to steady his balance.

Atlanta Hawks player Mike Scott pled not guilty to all charges stemming from his July 2015 drug arrest ... even though he previously admitted the drugs belonged to him.

As TMZ Sports reported, the 27-year-old forward was arrested last summer in Georgia after he and his brother allegedly led cops on a high-speed chase. When police searched their car, they found 10 grams of MDMA and more than an ounce of weed.

In a recorded interrogation with cops, Scott tried to take a bullet for his brother and said all the drugs were his. He was charged with two felonies -- possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana. His brother was also hit with a bunch of charges.

According to a rep for the Banks County Court, Scott's lawyer pled not guilty on his behalf to both counts on Monday.

If convicted on all charges, Scott faces up to 25 years in prison.

Jon Jones did not violate his court-ordered probation when he tested positive for a UFC banned substance ... TMZ Sports has learned.

A rep for the Bernalillo County DA's Office says the Corrections Department (who oversees Jones' probation) has decided not to pursue a violation because his sample wasn't collected by them or the court.

We're also told Jones' test didn't come back positive for any substances "that would typically constitute a violation of supervised probation."

Lil Wayne's epilepsy continues to dog him ... we've learned he was hospitalized last week after suffering a severe seizure.

Wayne has been unable to get his recent seizures under control. You'll recall just last month his plane made 2 emergency landings after he had a series of seizures on the aircraft.

The seizure last week was bad enough that he had to cancel his performance at TAO nightclub in Vegas for a pre-UFC 200 party. Wayne was just moments away from taking the stage when the seizure hit.

We're told Wayne has chalked it up to a medication issue ... that doctors were having trouble figuring out the right balance of Rx.

After a stint in the ICU, Wayne was released and is now resting in Miami.

Former UFC champ Luke Rockhold is the latest fighter to say ... a big percentage of his colleagues secretly use steroids.

Rick Ross is no dummy ... he's not gonna smoke a blunt in front of cameras while on house arrest -- so his story goes.

TMZ posted video a few days ago of Rick smoking what sure looked like a joint at his July 4th pool party. Since he's out on bail while his kidnapping case is pending, he's not allowed to break any law, and smoking weed is a big no-no in ATL.

Sources close to Rick tell us ... it was a cigar, stupid. They say Rosay had a guy at the ready rolling the stogies, which were Bello brand.

And that's how he rolls.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers player Louis Murphy was so drunk and confused about why he was locked in a museum, he called 911 and he's now made the Hall of Fame ... for 911 calls.

In the call obtained by TMZ Sports, the wide receiver tells the dispatcher he was a groomsman at his friend's wedding at the Flagler Museum -- but "got kinda drunk," and accidentally fell asleep in a garden and got locked inside.

29-year-old Murphy said he cut his hand while trying to break through a door to freedom. You'd think a guy who uses his hands for a living would be pissed about that, but no ... Murph was more upset his friends were somewhere partying without him.

He was clearly still wasted. Just listen. So good.

Museum security found him and cops showed up around 1:15 AM, but agreed no criminal charges would be pressed because Murphy agreed to pay for the door repair costs.
