It's all good in the hood between Will Smith and the Jews. Oy, it was giving us such a pain already!

The Anti-Defamation League just issued a statement to TMZ, saying that they "welcome and accept" Smith's statement that Hitler was a "vicious killer" and that it's clear that Smith didn't intend for his Hitler remarks to be construed as praise. "He took immediate steps to clarify his words and unequivocally condemn Hitler as an evil person," says ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman.

Smith was "incensed" that a Scottish reporter took his remarks about Hitler out of context from a recent interview.

UPDATE: Will Smith's rep sent TMZ the following statement from him, which reads: "It is an awful and disgusting lie. It speaks to the dangerous power of an ignorant person with a pen. I am incensed and infuriated to have to respond to such ludicrous misinterpretation. Adolph Hitler was a vile, heinous, vicious killer responsible for one of the greatest acts of evil committed on this planet."

On the day before Christmas, a leading Jewish group is kvetching loudly about Will Smith's recent suggestion that Adolf Hitler wasn't all bad, calling it "ignorant, detestable, and offensive." Oy.

The Jewish Defense League is calling on Barack Obama to repudiate Smith's comments, and wants theaters to pull Smith's new flick "I Am Legend" from their screens. Smith told a Scottish paper that Hitler "didn't wake up going, 'Let me do the most evil thing I can do today.' ... I think he woke up in the morning and using a twisted, backwards logic, he set out to do what he thought was 'good.'" What kind of meshuggeneh talk is that?!

Smith's words, say the JDL, "spit on the memory of every person murdered by the Nazis. His disgusting words stick a knife in the backs of every veteran who fought (and sometimes died) to save the world from the intentions of Adolf Hitler."

Stallone slyly turns a holiday question into a Rambo plug, only to later reveal his jacket has his face plastered on the back.

Gotta pay those Ferrari bills somehow ...

Wacktor Tom Sizemore has been released from Pleasant Valley State Prison, where he served time for violating probation on a 2004 methamphetamine conviction.

Sizemore was sentenced last June to 16 months in state prison, while he was already in custody. He was awarded 213 days credit for time he spent in county jail and residing in two live-in drug programs. He also got time off for good behavior. Tom became a free man on Dec. 10. Party time!

We've learned that Tom's other court case in Bakersfield has also been resolved. Sizemore was busted last May while high on crystal meth. He's now back in a drug program designed to help him stay clean.

In the suit, obtained by TMZ, Aussie film outfit Strange Bedfellows Pty Ltd. allege that the 2007 Adam Sandler-Kevin James comedy "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry" was ripped off from their own faux-gay-fireman movie, "Strange Bedfellows." That movie, starring Paul Hogan and Michael Caton, came out in 2004, and was the highest-grossing movie in Oz that year.

But you'll never guess who allegedly made the bridge between Crocodile Dundee and Billy Madison. Did you say Deuce Bigalow?

As Tom, the patron saint of Hollywood, was signing away, you can hear one fan use the word a**hole, to which Tom joked back, "What an a**hole!"

As the 38-year-old man candy signed autographs and crossed the street, a fan in heat is heard screaming, "Gerry, you're a sexy bitch." Without skipping a beat, Butler responds, "I know."

How could he not?!

It appears the 82-year-old "Spartacus" star is doing the work of Madame Tussauds all on his own!

Jodie received the Sherry Lansing Leadership Award at the breakfast ceremony, which honors the top women in entertainment.

Darren Foster is calling director Baz Luhrmann and his company Bazmark Films "un-Australian," for allegedly failing to fork over $16,000 for props and equipment they rented for the new film called -- wait for it -- "Australia"!

Foster is so p.o.'d, he traveled all the way from Queensland to Sydney last week to stage a one-man protest in front of Fox Studios. "The money crunchers have continuously brushed me off, so I'm hoping that maybe some of the cast, or Baz himself, might hear me out," he told The Sydney Morning Herald.
