'Party Down South' Star Jäger Stunt Pays Off In Boobs and Dongs

David Hasselhoff's Ex Pam Bach Targeted for Hit-and-Run Witness says She was WASTED
Pamela Bach -- famous for once being married to David Hasselhoff and 2 DUI arrests -- is now accused of slamming into a parked car while drunk.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the LAPD is currently investigating an incident last Friday night ... when Pamela was driving down the block where she lives and she slammed into a parked car.
We're told an eyewitness says Pamela skidded down the street and pulled into her driveway 5 houses up the block. When she got out she was stumbling and the witness says Pamela was clearly intoxicated.
The LAPD has taken a hit-and-run report and the case is currently under investigation.
This is not Pamela's first brush with the law or another car. She was prosecuted for hit-and-run in 2007 but the case was dismissed. She's also been convicted twice for DUI and served jail time.
Bach tells TMZ ... there's a simple explanation for the latest mishap. She says she was on her way home from the dog park when she dropped her cell phone and as she reached for it she sideswiped the parked car, but insists the damage was minor.
Bach says she drove up to her house and when she walked back down she couldn't find the car she hit ... so she went back home.
Bach insists ... she didn't have an ounce of alcohol.

Justin Bieber Grabs a Heiney Celeb-Owned Club Now in Trouble
Justin Bieber slammed an ice-cold beer and in the process put the hottest celebrity nightclub in Hollywood -- co-owned by David Arquette -- in jeopardy.
Justin and Chris Brown partied at Bootsy Bellows in West Hollywood. The club is permitted to admit people under 21 because it serves food ... but it CANNOT serve booze to anyone under 21.
Well at least one minor got his hands on a Heineken, and that puts the clubs license on the line. The California Dept. of Alcoholic Beverage Control is aware of the incident and the club could be subject to a fine ... if they can prove Bieber was drinking.
But here's the problem. Law enforcement tells us ... they're now going to step up undercover operations to monitor what goes on inside Bootsy, even though the club has had a good record.
Who knew sizzurp caused fewer problems?
We reached out to the club for comment ... so far, no word back.

Scott Disick drank so much one night last month ... he made a beeline for the hospital because his system was poisoned with booze.
Sources connected with Scott and the Kardashians tell TMZ ... Scott went to a nightclub in The Hamptons on June 22. He began binge drinking. We got a pic of him with a beer in his hand but it seems he drank the harder stuff too. We're told he was drunk out of his mind.
We're told Scott told the friends who were with him ... he was so messed up he felt someone had drugged him. So Scott -- who could barely put a sentence together -- went to the ER at Southampton Hospital.
We're told Scott was admitted and tested for drugs but doctors concluded it was classic alcohol poisoning.
The incident occurred days AFTER Kourtney threw Scott out of their Hamptons rental. And the very day Scott went to the hospital ... Kourtney bailed and took the kids to California, where they celebrated North West's birthday.
Now the good news ... Scott apparently had a wake up call, because we're told he hasn't had a drink since and is getting counselling from Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr. .. the handsome minister who married Kim and Kanye.

Charlie Sheen worked the Taco Bell drive-thru recently -- and by that we mean he worked the crowd trying to score some late night, post-boozing grub.

Charlie Sheen 'I'm SO Hammered' At Taco Bell Drive-Thru
Charlie Sheen videos don't get any more REAL than this -- it's Charlie totally blitzed in the middle of a late night Taco Bell run ... and he looks and sounds EXACTLY the way you'd think.
The clip starts with a totally disheveled Charlie stumbling over to a car at the drive-thru -- looks like the driver called him over -- and the Ma-Sheen quickly unloads this awesome line ... "Sorry, I'm so f****** hammered."
Honesty really is best.
Unclear exactly where and when this went down ... the clip was posted sometime on Tuesday, but it doesn't really matter.
Watch ... the Warlock rips open his shirt, shows off his tatts, and even attempts a little couples counseling.
Don't worry, doesn't look like Charlie was driving. You can see his typically chauffeur-driven Benz in the background.

'Party Down South' Star Beer Bongs Entire Bottle of Jäger
File Under: "You Might Be An Alcoholic If" ... YOU BEER BONG AN ENTIRE BOTTLE OF JÄGER ... AND LIVE TO TELL ABOUT IT ... just like "Party Down South" star Ryan "Daddy" Richards.
FYI ... Jagermeister -- aka that stuff you swore you'd never drink again after college -- is 70 proof and no one should EVER try and slam a bottle by themselves.
But Richards isn't known for making the best life choices and loaded up the funnel when his co-star Mattie Breaux challenged him to go through with the brain cell-destroying stunt.
Spoiler alert: He lived.

Lil Twist Beats DUI Rap NOT STONED ENOUGH
Lil Twist -- who was arrested for DUI, stumbled and swayed during the field sobriety test and admitted to smoking weed just before driving ... BEAT THE RAP because cops say he wasn't THAT stoned.
It's just plain weird. Twist was stopped a year ago for doing 69 MPH in a 30 and running a red light. Cops noticed a lit blunt in the center console and smelled the weed. They also noticed his eyes were bloodshot and his speech was "deliberate and lethargic."
Twist admitted he'd been smoking. He then failed the field sobriety test ... he couldn't touch his nose, couldn't walk a straight line, and swayed when he tried standing on 1 leg and his eyes were rolling.
Seems like case closed, right? It was, because the D.A. REJECTED the case. The reasons:
-- Cops waited an hour and 46 minutes before taking a blood sample. The amount of weed in his system was not high enough to indicate impairment.
-- His field sobriety results were only "moderately bad."
-- The senior criminologist couldn't argue on the stand he was impaired to drive.
So all Twist ended up with was 3 tickets -- speeding, failing to stop at a red light and possession of less than 1 oz. of weed.
