'Vanderpump Rules' Stars Violent TV Catfight Was REAL

Stassi Schroeder accuses Kristen Doute of sleeping with her ex-boyfriend ... calling her a "dirty f**king whore" ... then hauling off and smacking Kristen in the face. She also douses Kristen with a drink -- while the rest of the cast looks on.
The fight was not scripted ... and Kristen was so enraged she was gunning to get Stassi prosecuted and filed a police report.
But we found out the criminal case hit a dead end ... cops needed a follow-up interview but Kristen was uncooperative.
Lisa Vanderpump -- who employs both Stassi and Kristen at her restaurant -- tells TMZ the women have since made up telling us, "I know that Stassi was very sorry and regretted it. I made Stassi apologize to Kristen and hope that they could move forward."

Kanye West SETTLES Case With Bev Hills Beating Victim
The guy Kanye West beat up in the waiting room of a Beverly Hills chiropractor hit the jackpot ... scoring a settlement of MORE THAN $250,000 ... TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the negotiations tell us ... the young man who allegedly hurled racial epithets at Kim earlier this month has agreed to the civil settlement and now feels satisfied enough that he does NOT want to go forward with a criminal prosecution.
Law enforcement sources tell us ... the D.A. has not decided whether to charge Kanye with battery. The reality is ... there's almost no chance of that happening. First, the D.A. now has an uncooperative victim. Second, the victim's alleged racial epithets will not sit well with the jury. And there are probably lots of Kanye fans in the jury pool.
We're told during the settlement negotiations the victim's demand soared to the upper 6 figures, so $250K is just a fraction.
We called Kanye's civil lawyer, Shawn Holley for comment ... but we got nothin'.
