Charlize Theron and watch giant Raymond Weil have called time out in their $20 million lawsuit.

They've settled the suit in which Weil claims Theron signed an endorsement deal to wear his watches and no one elses. According to the case, Theron cheated on Weil when she was photographed wearing a Christian Dior watch.

We kid -- actually, the two hooked up for a good cause. Fiddy just forked over a ton of cash to build a garden in his home turf, Queens, NY -- after Miss M talked him into getting involved with her charity, the NY Restoration Project.

The Doggfather, as blunt as ever ... well, maybe even more "blunt" than usual ... was all decked out for a charity event in Hollywood last night, and afterwards he gave TMZ a tutorial on how to step up our game. Lesson number one. "Pimpin' don't run -- pimpin' walk."

For those of you sick of hearing about Disney teen stars buying multi-million dollar homes during a major financial crisis -- just stop reading.

Vanessa Hudgens, 19, just sang and danced her way into a $2.75 million home in Studio City, CA. Zac Efron can now visit Hudgens unchaperoned in her six bedroom, 6.5 bath, 5,200 sq. ft. home -- which includes a pool, spa and a "barbeque island," according to the L.A. Times.

In the actual judgment, Charlize gets pretty much every claim against her tossed out by the judge except one -- for wearing the Dior watch pictured above for an hour ... an hour out of a 15-month endorsement contract with Weil.

Bigshot producers Trackmasters claim in a lawsuit they did virtually everything they could for the rapperista: Helped pay her $200K debt to Kim's ex-record label, started a company with $1.6 mil called Brookland just for her, moved their offices near her NJ mansion, and on and on.

She recorded a few tracks... but then wanted to rip up and redo her contract with Brookland, demanding that Akon and Wyclef get into the act. When producers balked, she threatened to jack five tracks and take them to another label.

A guy who won $100K on "The Biggest Loser" is facing some heavy jail time for allegedly trying to bilk an insurance company out of $63,000.

Season one loser David Fioravanti just was indicted by a Massachusetts grand jury on seven counts of insurance fraud -- he allegedly tried to insure $63K worth of jewels that he already had reported as stolen a year before, reports the Boston Globe. And he tried to perpetrate this scheme not once, but twice, says the DA.

And get this -- one of the allegedly victimized insurance companies was named ... Chubb Insurance!!!

Dupri is being sued by Aika Kendrick, who claims JD recorded a personal phone call with her and used it on a song without her permission. Kendrick wants $250k for her vocals being used. JD could have hired Paris for half that!

Hilary Duff's dad will be spending up to ten days in jail -- all because of a fight over cash for Hilary's birthday party.

According to Houston Chronicle, mama Duff dragged her ex into court today -- and this is no joke -- to ask for $25,000 to throw a party for Hilary's 21st birthday -- because that's what they spent on Haylie's 21st bday two years ago.
