'Real O.C.' Douche Owes $80,000 to Sick Son
The only thing worse than owing nearly $80,000 in child support? When the kid you're allegedly failing to support is fighting an inoperable brain tumor ... but that's just how the Real O.C.'s Slade Smiley happens to roll.
TMZ has obtained a letter sent to Slade's baby mama from the Department of Child Support Services last month, which states Slade owes her $77,356.75 in late child support payments ... plus 10 percent interest whenever he doesn't cut her a check on time.
Slade filed a request in L.A. County Superior Court two weeks after the DCSS sent the letter, asking a judge to lower the enormous child support bill because he says he's unemployed and makes zero dollars. Slade's rep tells us Slade has "jumped through burning hoops to take care of [his child's] well-being and health."
Slade's baby mama begs to differ, telling us Slade has only seen his sick 9-year-old son Grayson twice in the last year and a half -- and hasn't even sent the kid a birthday card.

Spade -- No Regrets on Farley Direct TV Ad
David Spade says he has no regrets about resurrecting a classic scene from "Tommy Boy" -- featuring the late, great Chris Farley -- for a controversial DirecTV ad, telling TMZ that offending people was never his intention.
We got David outside Boa last night, where he told us Farley's family and the director of "Tommy Boy" all gave their seal of approval for the spot.
He wasn't lying -- Kevin Farley, Chris' bro, was there too and said the commercial was "an honor to my brother."

Chiefs Fans to Owner: Fire Larry Johnson!!
Larry Johnson is roughly 80 yards away from becoming the all time leading rusher for the Kansas City Chiefs -- but after his anti-gay slur scandal last week, Chiefs fans want him off the team before he has a chance to make history.
Hundreds of loyal Chiefs fans have signed a petition, begging the team owner to keep Larry Johnson's name out of the Chiefs Hall of Fame forever.
The petition reads:
"Larry has been a black eye on the organization ... We are asking you, as fans of this team, this organization, and of the pride that this city has in the Chiefs, please deactivate Larry Johnson.
Please do not let his name sit atop the all-time rushing leaders in Kansas City Chiefs history."
We spoke to one of the fans behind the petition, Andy Phelan, who tells us: "I would love it if we never see Larry Johnson in a Chiefs uniform again ... He's a cancer in the locker room."

The victim was treated for minor injuries -- Dekker was hauled to Van Nuys jail, where he eventually bailed out.
Dekker is set to be arraigned on Friday.

Burglar Bunch Search Warrant
TMZ has obtained a copy of the search warrant in the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch caper -- and there's no doubt ... a lot was stolen.
The warrant identifies certain property presumed to have been stolen by members of the Bunch from various celeb homes. The items include, "hats, purses, pink duffel bag, gray duffel bag, gold watch, silver watch, silver necklace, sunglasses, luggage, coats, personal computers, laptop computers, cigarettes, gloves and scarves."
Cops were also on the hunt for any means of communication, "boasting about the burglaries." They were also afraid the bunch would learn the cops were on to them and destroy the evidence. Therefore, the police asked the judge to approve simultaneous searches of the suspects residences.
The warrant also gave cops permission to search for "narcotics, dangerous drugs, marijuana, and paraphernalia related to the use and/or sale of such substances such as hypodermic syringes, hypodermic needles ... spoons, balloons, condoms, measuring devices, badges, pipes, cutting agents ... as well as large sums of cash."
Law enforcement says members of the Bunch hit the homes of Lindsay Lohan, Audrina Patridge, Paris Hilton, Rachel Bilson, Orlando Bloom, and Brian Austin Green -- among others.
The L.A. County District Attorney has charged Nick Prugo, Diana Tamayo, Courtney Ames, Roy Lopez Jr. and Alexis Neiers in various residential burglaries.

Burglar Bunch Suspect -- Drugs, Guns and Ammo
The Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch may have been far more dangerous than first thought -- cops say one of the suspected members had built a serious arsenal of hardcore drugs, guns and ammunition.
Cops recently executed a search warrant on the L.A. home of Johnny "Dangerous" Ajar -- and what they found caused authorities to charge the 27-year-old with 10 felonies including:
-- Six counts possession for sale of a controlled substance ... cocaine, oxycodone, psilocybin (aka mushrooms), Ecstasy, Clonazepam (an anxiety pill), Alprazolam (aka Xanax).
-- Three counts possession of a firearm by a felon for two Sig Sauer 9MM handguns and a Remington shotgun.
-- One count possession of ammunition.
As we first reported, Ajar was convicted of trying to sell 500 grams of cocaine back in 2002 -- and spent over a year-and-a-half in a Wyoming prison.
Now, authorities say he's on the run and considered armed and dangerous.

Burglar Bunch Suspect -- Major Coke Conviction
They don't call him Johnny Dangerous for nothing -- the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch suspect (who's still on the run, no less) spent time in prison a few years ago for trying to slang massive amounts of coke.
Jonathan Ajar pled guilty in federal court in Wyoming in 2002 to possession with intent to distribute more than "500 grams of mixture or substance containing a detectable amount of cocaine," this according to court documents we obtained.
But get this ... as part of his plea, the second charge against Ajar was dropped -- which was the intent to sell roughly 35 POUNDS of marijuana.
Ajar was sentenced to 37 months in prison, four years supervised release and was forced to pay a measly $250 fine.
Ajar was behind bars from Feb. 20, 2003 until November 8, 2004 -- and lived in a halfway house after he was released.
As we first reported, Ajar was convicted of DUI earlier this year, busted for drug possession back in September ... and cops held up a wanted poster of him during a press conference about the Burglar Bunch case last week.

Kiefer Sutherland's $700 Morning Bar Tab
Kiefer Sutherland racked up the following $700 bar tab between 7am and 1pm. Yes, those times are correct.
We've learned the "24" star and members of the show's crew popped into The Spot in San Pedro, California last week after wrapping up a shoot nearby -- and they were ready to get their drink on.
According to an employee at the bar, Kiefer was throwing back scotch & Cokes and bought drinks for everybody in the joint -- roughly 30 people. The total damage: $500. No food ... all booze.
The drinks may have been stiff, but Kiefer wasn't -- we're told he tipped $200.
FYI: We're told Sutherland -- who has a few DUIs under his belt -- was responsible this time and used a designated driver when he left the bar.

Joanna Krupa Tickled Pink in Fetish Video
Joanna Krupa has got one hilarious foot fetish -- or at least she does in this laughable low budget fetish video from back in the day ... complete with more tickle torture than anyone should ever have to endure.
TMZ has learned the Playboy bombshell and "Dancing with the Stars" competitor scored the starring role of "Head Nurse Regina" in the foot fetish/tickle torture film "No Shoes No Mercy" back in 2003 ... probably for some extra cash before her big break.
In the video, Krupa starts off by unleashing her fingers of fury on her female tickle partner ... then gets tied down on the hospital bed for an awkwardly awesome session of her very own.
As for Krupa's tickle partner? That's Sarah Kozer -- a reality TV regular you might recognize as the runner-up from "Joe Millionaire."

Nas to Kelis: No Support for You!
Nas may be loaded, but it makes no difference. He's just filed legal papers asking the judge in his divorce case with Kelis to block her from getting spousal support.
In the papers, filed by his lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan, Nas is also asking for joint custody of their two-month-old boy.
Kelis is asking for $72,728 a month -- which means they are now exactly $72,728 apart.

Big Brother Suspect -- Alleged Phone Drug Deal
TMZ has obtained an audio tape of former "Big Brother" champion Adam Jasinski allegedly setting up a drug deal with a government witness who was working with the FBI.
According to authorities, the audio tape proves Jasinski -- the more distorted of the two voices -- was working out a deal to sell 2000 units of oxycodone to an FBI informant.
During the call, neither man mentions any pill by name.
According to the audio tape, the deal was supposed to go down on October 16th. However, the feds allege it went down on the 17th instead and Jasinski was arrested in an undercover sting operation.
Jasinski was charged with possession of 2000 oxycodone pills with intent to distribute -- he's being held in Massachusetts without bail.

Seacrest Alleged Stalker -- Army Infantryman
UPDATE: TMZ just spoke with Lt. Col. Nathan Banks, an Army spokesperson, who told us: "We apologize to Ryan Seacrest. Pending the outcome of the local investigation, the Army will decide what further action to take. We take all matters of our personnel seriously."
Ryan Seacrest's alleged stalker is scarier than first thought -- we've learned he has serious military training.
Chidi Uzomah, Jr. is currently in the Army Reserves in Upland, California. He was trained as a front line soldier and assigned to the 426th Civil Affairs Battalion -- a part of the Army special forces, which is attached to the Green Berets.
Before Uzomah's gig in the 426th, he served in the California Army National Guard from April 2005 through April 2009. He was honorably discharged and then transferred to the Army Reserves.
Uzomah was an ROTC Cadet at Cal State Dominguez Hills.
We spoke with a honcho at the ROTC today, who said, "I am painfully aware of our connection with Uzomah." He would not elaborate.

Alleged Seacrest Stalker Sought Actor 'Training'
Before he had cuffs on his wrists, the man accused of stalking Ryan Seacrest had stars in his eyes -- as in, the dude was training to be an actor ... and TMZ obtained footage from his acting class.
Just days before Chidi Uzomah was arrested for attacking Seacrest's security guard outside a hospital in Orange County, dude went to the Secrets of Acting studio and met with acting coach Charles Tentindo. Chidi told Tentindo he wanted "training" and came into the studio just once and ran through a scene a couple of times -- oddly enough, it was some kind of interrogation scene where Chidi was the witness. (BTW -- he's terrible)
Tentindo tells TMZ he thought Uzomah "seemed very sad and depressed" and had a sort of "dark cloud" over him.
Uzomah took the class on September 8. He was arrested the first time on September 17 at a charity event in Orange County. Chidi was arrested again just this past Friday inside the building where Seacrest does his daily radio and TV show. Uzomah is being held on a charge of felony stalking.

Brett Favre Got Extra Protection in Green Bay
Brett Favre used to be the king of Green Bay -- before he signed with the Packers' arch rivals -- now the legendary quarterback is using extra security just to get around the bitter town he left.
TMZ has learned the Minnesota Vikings beefed up their security for Favre's super-hyped up return to Lambeau Field yesterday -- even providing a special team of private security officers "specifically assigned" to protect Brett.
We spoke with a Vikings spokesperson who told us, "I can confirm that we did have extra security in place throughout the trip, including at the hotel Saturday night and at the stadium yesterday.
Taking the necessary precautions to protect our players on any road trip is always a priority of the team, and this situation was no exception."
Translation: A lot of people don't like Brett in Green Bay -- the city he played in for 16 years.
The Vikes protected Favre on the field too -- Brett threw 4 TDs as the Vikes crushed the Pack 38-26.

MJ's Last Recording - Subject of Creditor's Claim
We've now learned the basis for the latest creditor's claim against Michael Jackson's estate -- and it could be a goldmine.
As we first reported, Audio 4 Video Digital (A4V Digital, Inc.), filed a creditor's claim for $736,502.59. Sources connected with A4V tell TMZ that Jackson had been recording songs shortly before he died and A4V was working on the music at the time of his death.
An A4V source says the company is a co-owner -- along with the estate -- of the copyright for the sound recordings. This could represent the last work of Michael Jackson -- so good, bad or ugly, it could be the royal jackpot.
We're also told A4V was working with Jackson for years before his death and has a stockpile of recordings that have never been released.
