Ludacris can't afford to pay thousands of dollars in child support -- and he's blaming his financial woes on the death of his "Fast and Furious" co-star Paul Walker.

Ludacris was in court Wednesday with his baby mama, Tamika Fuller ... who's demanding Luda pay her $15K a month to take care of his 2-month-old baby daughter, Cai.

But Luda went to court and told the judge ... he was counting on "Fast and Furious 7" money to make his payments, and the movie is now on hold so his payday went away.

Luda claims he can only pay $1,800 a month -- confessing he only made around $55K for 2013.

The judge split the baby down the middle, ordering Luda to pay 7K a month for now ... while hizzoner reviews all the financial docs.

Sharon Stone claims a big time movie producer is a liar and a fraud who asked her to falsify U.S. documents so she could go to Cuba and play Ernest Hemingway's wife in a new movie ... and when she refused she got stiffed and was ordered to return a custom wig.

Stone made a deal with Bob Yari to shoot "Papa," about the famous writer. Sharon was slated to play Mary Hemingway, but there was a big snag.

According to the lawsuit, filed by legal pit bull Marty Singer, Stone needed legal clearance to take the trip to Castroland. Stone claims in the lawsuit -- obtained by TMZ -- Yari asked her to LIE in order to get permission from the U.S. Government. He wanted her to say the trip was for a "cultural endeavor" ... which it wasn't.

Stone claims Yari pressured her to falsify government documents, and when she resisted he sent her an email saying, "NO ONE has EVER been jailed for travel to Cuba."

Sharon refused to budge, so Yari -- who also produced "Crash" -- recast the role and refused to pay her the $500,000 she was promised.

To add insult to injury, Sharon says Yari actually had the gall to demand that she return the wig that had been made for the Mary Hemingway character.

Scott Schwartz -- who played the kid who got his tongue frozen stuck to a pole in "A Christmas Story" -- hit an UNBELIEVABLE half-court shot at a Denver Nuggets game ... and all he got was a lousy t-shirt.

Schwartz -- who also starred as the spoiled brat in the Richard Prior classic "The Toy" -- was brought on to the court Tuesday as a celebrity guest to goof around with the Nuggets mascot during a break in the action.

Things started off with the mascot sinking a crazy over the back half-court shot ... and then he handed the rock to Schwartz -- who NAILED a Kareem-style hook shot!!

Unfortunately, the shot wasn't a part of a contest ... so he didn't win anything (though Schwartz says the Nuggets were nice enough to give him a t-shirt and a cranberry juice).

Scott tells TMZ Sports ... there was NO WAY he thought he'd sink the shot on the first try -- but says, "I was always an athlete."

Nice shot.

Oksana Grigorieva -- who got hundreds of thousands of dollars from Mel Gibson after a nuclear child custody war -- has filed for bankruptcy ... TMZ has learned.

In new legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Oksana says things are so bad she only has $10 in cash to her name.

Oksana says the math tells the story -- $48,000 in assets, $438,000 in debts.

As for Oksana's expenses ... she spends $90 a month on "Gofer Patrol." BTW ... her home security is less ... $80 a month.

Oksana -- who is a singer -- claims in the last 6 months she's only received $200 in royalties.

She also lists works of art she painted at $500.

Now get this ... Most of the debts are from legal bills. Oksana owes 5 lawyers a quarter-of-a-million bucks.

Remember ... during the custody fight ... Oksana hired and fired more than 40 lawyers.

Mel agreed to pay Oksana a $750K settlement in installments -- the last being due in 2016. As you remember, Mel pled no contest to assaulting Oksana ... knocking out a few veneers.

According to the court docs, Mel pays her $20,000 a month in child support for Lucia, and actor Timothy Dalton pays her $2,500 a month for their son, Alexander.

The naked Emma Stone photo that has blessed the web is -- unfortunately -- NOT EMMA STONE ... so says Emma Stone.

A pic showing a buck-naked red-haired beauty snapping a selfie in the mirror has gone viral ... and damn if it doesn't look a lot like the "Easy A" actress. Several websites have published the photo -- saying it's definitely Stone.

But a source close to Emma is adamant ... it's just not her.

As for who really owns the bare lady parts? She's yet to come forward.

Up to now, Emma's managed to keep her lady bits covered in the movies ... which is why this photo exploded on the Internet.

"Yes. Yes ma'am." These are the words a movie extra believes are worth a fortune ... words he brilliantly delivered in "Titanic" ... words over which he is now suing.

The extra -- a guy named Vi Jay -- has filed the lawsuit against 20th Century Fox, claiming he was cast as a non-speaking background actor in the embarking scene at the beginning of the movie. Vi says the day of the shoot, James Cameron spontaneously gave him a career-changing line.

"Yes. Yes ma'am." Vi delivers the line to Kathy Bates' character as she hands him her luggage.

Vi says he was paid a measly $60 a day -- per his agreement as an extra -- but now says the line he delivered entitles him to SAG (Screen Actors' Guild) benefits, specifically RESIDUALS.

And Vi might have a point -- we spoke to a rep from SAG, who says actors with speaking roles (no matter how small) are typically entitled to residual money.

An ex-business partner of the real "Wolf of Wall Street" is suing Martin Scorsese and Paramount for $25 MILLION because he claims they made him look like a hooker banging, toupee-wearing party animal ... which he partly denies.

TMZ has learned Andrew Greene -- a former exec at Stratton Oakmont -- filed a federal lawsuit which claims the Oscar nominated flick defamed the hell out of him by portraying him as a criminal and a drug user ... but perhaps worst of all ... it mocked his premature hair loss.

In the suit, filed by Greene's lawyer Stephanie Ovadia ... he says his real life co-workers -- including Jordan Belfort (Leo DiCaprio's character) -- gave him the nickname "Wigman" due to the rug he wore.

In the movie, Greene is portrayed through the character Nicky "Rugrat" Koskoff -- played by P.J. Byrne -- and just as Greene claims in his suit ... co-workers mock the guy's hair piece pretty mercilessly.

According to the suit, Greene's also pissed about the movie's portrayal of him doing illegal and unethical activities ... such as screwing hookers in front of co-workers.

Greene claims the characterization has damaged his professional rep as an investment banker -- and the filmmakers never got his permission to use his name, likeness or identity.

Not only does he want $25 mil in damages from Paramount and Scorsese's production company -- he also wants them to hand over all copies of the film ... and yank it out of theaters.

Charlie Sheen’s pornstar fiancée has a thing for Robert De Niro ... so Charlie’s inviting him over for a smoking hot group session ... in his home photo booth.

Charlie just gushed over De Niro’s movie “Last Vegas” on Twitter ... and revealed he bought a photo booth used in the film -- probably because his bride-to-be Brett Rossi is Bobby D's "biggest fan."

Now, in a move only Charlie Sheen could pull off -- he's SERIOUSLY asking De Niro to drop by his house to take a few selfies with Brett in the booth.

It's a pretty decent proposal ... considering De Niro's done worse.

Michelle Rodriguez and supermodel Cara Delevingne are acknowledging the obvious -- they're the hottest lesbian couple in the universe -- and to prove it they ate out last night.

Michelle and Cara were photographed leaving a London restaurant together, looking very coupley.

And to make it official -- before their date, Michelle told The Mirror they're an item, saying, "It's going really well. She's so cool. When we started hanging out, I just thought she was awesome, and we have the best time together."

35-year-old Michelle and 21-year-old Cara have been all over each other for 6 weeks now -- starting last month with a drunken makeout session courtside at a Knicks game -- so nothing fishy about this hookup.

Charlie Sheen -- who is paying $110,000 a month in child support for his 4 minor children, may have been twice bitten but he's game to have more kids with his new fiancee.

Sheen tells TMZ ... he's absolutely open to having children with Brett Rossi. At 24 she's not experienced the joy of childbirth, and she wants a family. Charlie will accommodate her, but he says not right away. As Charlie put it, "I'm having way too much fun with her right now. So much fun it should be illegal."

Charlie says Brett has spent time with twins Bob and Max. He says she loves them and vice versa.

Charlie -- who's been married 3 times -- also tells us he WON'T demand a formal prenup from Brett. Charlie says, "Prenups poison marriages." According to Charlie, his form of prenup will be short and sweet ... one line: "You keep your s**t and I'll keep mine."

Josh Peck loves former co-star Drake Bell like a brother ... but Josh won't help his buddy crawl out of debt by making a "Drake & Josh" flick.

Peck was catching some rays on a bench in Manhattan Beach when our photog raised the issue of helping Drake score some quick cash.

As we previously reported ... Bell's in the hole to the tune of $581k -- and claiming he pulls in an anemic $2,820 a month compared to his monthly outlay of $18,771.

Since their Nickelodeon show went off the air in 2007 ... Peck's been pretty successful -- voicing both Eddie in the "Ice Age" films ... and Casey Jones on the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" show.

Selena Gomez is hitting the bottle hard after bailing from rehab just weeks ago.

Selena proudly re-embraced alcohol by posting this happy hour selfie on Instagram. We've confirmed there's booze beneath that whipped cream.

TMZ previously reported ... Selena checked into The Meadows last month to rid herself of alcohol, weed and Ambien ... and Justin Bieber. She bailed 2 weeks into the 45-day program to go to Sundance and then said she was cured so she didn't need to return.

Selena's rep claims she's got no problems handling her liquor. But when you're calling your cocktails "dessert before dinner" ... you may want to think about the next 12 steps.

It's like reading Playboy for the articles -- Kirsten Dunst went to a New Orleans strip club Saturday night for the drinks and conversation ... paying ZERO attention to the naked girls shaking their asses on stage.

The "Spider-Man" actress hit up Rick's Saloon -- which flew in extra dancers from V-Live Club in Houston just for All-Star Weekend -- but Kirsten didn't appear impressed ... facing away from the stage, stirring her drink, and trying to talk with her friends.

WHO TRIES TO TALK IN A STRIP CLUB???

Thankfully, Kirsten still dropped some cash on the ladies -- we're told about $1,000 -- and then came back the next night too.

Shia LaBeouf sobbed all over his fans on closing night of his bizarre art installation in L.A.

When Shia's #iamsorry thing wrapped up last night ... he silently walked out of the building, gestured for a paparazzo to move ... and then went in for a group hug with about five fans.

The scene is pretty weird ... especially the rubdown he ended up getting from the female fans while they all hugged it out.

The actor who played Brad Majors in the original stage production of "The Rocky Horror Show" has died ... TMZ has learned.

Christopher Malcolm died Saturday at age 67 ... his death was first confirmed by his daughter on Twitter.

Malcolm originated the role of Brad in 1973 in the London production of RHS ... playing the newlywed groom who takes refuge with his wife Janet in the home of sweet transvestite Dr. Frank-N-Furter.

The stage show was turned into a film in 1975 -- but without Malcolm -- the role of Brad was played by Barry Bostwick.

Malcolm was an accomplished Shakespearean actor who also appeared as starfighter pilot Zev Senesca in "Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back" ... and had numerous directing and producing credits.

Cause of death is unknown.
