'O.C. Housewives' Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Barney were way worse off than we initially thought after they rolled an ATV while taping on Saturday.

TMZ obtained these photos and video from the crash scene in Glamis, CA ... where Vicki had to be airlifted to a hospital for treatment. Witnesses on scene tell us she was puking after the accident, and couldn't feel her fingers. Both women complained of neck and back pain, and you can tell from these images ... everyone on scene was concerned about the severity of the injuries.

We're also told Tamra, who was driving the Polaris RZR, had been warned several times by the people training her to slow down.

TMZ broke the story ... both women had to be hospitalized after the accident, which happened while they were shooting for the show.

Both have been released, and we're told they're recovering well.

Tamra Barney and Vicki Gunvalson were hospitalized -- one of them was even airlifted -- after a joyride in the California desert nearly turned tragic.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ the accident happened in Glamis, CA around 12:50 PM Saturday ... when the Polaris RZR the women were riding in rolled over multiple times. A camera crew for "Real Housewives of the O.C." was taping at the time, and according to sources connected with production ... Tamra was behind the wheel.

We're told Vicki was airlifted to a nearby hospital for treatment. She was released early this morning with no major injuries. Tamra was also hospitalized, but released on Saturday.

Both women were transported mostly out of an abundance of caution. We're told neither was in grave danger.

6:25 PM PT -- The O.C. Sheriff's Department tells us the officer Alexa names in her lawsuit, Deputy Epson ... is not one of their employees. Nor has he ever been. However, a Sheriff rep tells us they take the allegations seriously and they are investigating.

The daughter of 'Real Housewives' star Lynne Curtin says an O.C. Sheriff's deputy raped her after a bizarre traffic stop and search of her vehicle ... and now she wants the county to pay.

Alexa Curtin says she was leaving her boyfriend's Dana Point home in April 2014 when she got pulled over by a man she believes to be an O.C. deputy. In a lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Curtin says the deputy searched her car and found underwear. She says he grilled her, saying things like ... how many pairs of underwear she had and why she needed them.

Alexa, who used to make frequent appearances on 'Real Housewives of Orange County,' never says why he pulled her over in the first place.

After the search, she says the deputy abruptly announced he had to tend to another call, but told her to stay put on the side of the road -- only to return 20 minutes later in his personal vehicle, and in plain clothes.

Curtin says he jumped in the passenger seat of her car and said, "Since you are still here, I am going to f**k the s**t out of you." She says he groped her, digitally penetrated her and then told her to straddle him. She describes the encounter as "nonconsensual sexual intercourse."

She says he ejaculated inside her and on her seat.

In the suit, Curtin says she was afraid to report the alleged rape to authorities out of fear the deputy would harm her again. She's suing Orange County for violating her civil rights and for an illegal search and seizure.

The O.C. Sheriff's Department had no comment.

3:04 PM PT -- Kelly Meza-Dodd tells TMZ, "I am truly embarrassed. There is no excuse for bad behavior or comments that offend anyone. That video does not represent who I really am and I apologize for acting irresponsibly."

'Real Housewives of Orange County' star Heather Dubrow is drawing a line -- she will NOT hang with rumored new cast member Kelly Meza-Dodd after some racist comments Kelly made on camera.

We caught Heather at LAX and showed her Kelly's racist rant Tuesday night outside The Nice Guy. For those who missed it, Kelly -- who seemed like she'd knocked back one too many -- told a camera guy point blank she didn't like black guys.

Dubrow has a zero tolerance policy when it comes to racism.

"Little Women: LA" stars Briana Renee and husband Matt Ericson are expecting a little bun in the oven ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the reality stars tell us Briana is currently 5 months pregnant. They don't know the baby's sex yet, but the couple is excited.

We're told their controversial relationship gets more rocky during the current season of their show -- but right now, they're doing good.

The pregnancy announcement will be featured on the show.

One of the stars of "Welcome to Sweetie Pie's" is serious about his side hustle -- he's releasing a new music video with Migos.

Tim Norman, who's featured on OWN's hit reality show ... recorded and released the song "Loud" with Migos last month, and the video's dropping today. BTW, his rap handle is Time.

Even though Tim's flourishing in the family biz with his mom, Miss Robbie -- we're told his first passion is music. It's in his blood, after all ... Miss Robbie was a backup singer with Ike & Tina Turner back in the day.

"Mob Wives" star Drita D'Avanzo is off the hook for kicking her neighbor's ass over a parking spot ... all because the neighbor refused to snitch.

Drita was supposed to appear in a NYC courtroom Wednesday morning in the case, but we've learned the D.A. has declined to prosecute her. We're told the the D.A.'s office dropped the matter because Drita's neighbor, Mary Bratti, refused to cooperate.

It's an interesting twist ... considering there's clear video of Drita and Bratti brawling on Bratti's doorstep.

Blac Chyna will make a cameo on "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" ... if the price is right.

Sources close to Chyna tell us she's looking to meet with 'KUWTK' showrunners and negotiate a minor role on the show.

Chyna thinks she knows the value of footage showing the relationship between her and Rob's sisters, but she may be overestimating its worth ... she wants $1 MILLION.

Rob's GF wants even more ... a non-exclusive contract, because she wants her own reality show ... possibly with Rob.

Based on what we know, the chances this will happen are way slimmer than Rob.

Judge Judy is welcoming Sarah Palin with open arms to the battlefield of TV judge shows ... or is she?

Judy was out in Bev Hills when we asked her about Palin's new deal to star in a judge show produced by the same exec who gave Judy her big break.

Her reaction is congenial at first -- she's even got a little advice for Sarah ... who does not have a law degree or any courtroom experience, by the way.

An ex "Buckwild" star is behind bars for the holiday -- finally serving her sentence for a DWI arrest from nearly 2 years ago.

Law enforcement sources tell us Ashley Whitt turned herself in to the Pitt County Detention Center on Friday to begin her 30 day stretch in the lockup. Cops busted her in Greenville, NC back in May 2014.

It's unclear why the case took so long to be resolved.

A lots changed since Ashley's big MTV debut back in 2013. Or maybe not much at all ...

"Dancing with the Stars" contestant Nyle DiMarco is keeping time just fine on the dance floor -- even though he's deaf -- with a hand from his partner.

We got this video of 'DWTS' pro Peta Murgatroyd and the 'Top Model' champ rehearsing, and she shows off their secret to keeping the beat. It's really impressive on Nyle's part!

The duo tied for the top score on this week's premiere, and based on this ... looks like they're gonna nail it again next week.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' producers let a giant skeleton out of Porsha Williams' closet at the final reunion show taping ... raw footage of her dark alley assault on pal Jami Ziegler.

We broke the story ... Porsha allegedly attacked Jami at a party in December while being filmed ... all because she didn't like the person Jami brought as her plus one.

Producers told the ladies the cameras didn't capture the fight ... since Jami ran out of the house and down a dark alley where the beatdown occurred ... but turns out it wasn't true.

Our sources say the whole thing was captured on a camera ... notably Porsha throwing some pretty mean punches, and the footage will air in April.

We're told several women on the show want her kicked off since it was her third fight with castmates ... Cynthia, Kenya and now Jami, if you're keeping score.

Alexandra Godino, the woman who sued "Say Yes to the Dress" for scheduling her episode before her wedding -- and thereby jinxing her marriage -- got shut down in court.

A judge ruled Godino signed a standard release which made no mention of specific air dates. The bride-to-be insists she had a verbal agreement with producers.

Godino was seeking an injunction so the episode wouldn't air Friday, claiming it would spoil the surprise of her wedding dress before her May nuptials.

The judge didn't buy it and reprimanded Godino for waiting until the last moment because she knew about the air date since mid-February. One last blow ... when the judge asked if Godino could just ask her fiance to not watch the episode, Godino's attorney replied, "she could."

A blushing bride-to-be is beet red with anger because she says the TV show "Say Yes to the Dress" is about to spoil the biggest reveal in a girl's wedding.

Alexandra Godino claims she moseyed into Kleinfeld -- the bridal shop where the show is shot -- back in September. She says producers approached her and asked if she wanted to appear on the show, because apparently the bride who was scheduled flaked out.

Ali said 'yes' to the show with one proviso ... the show couldn't be broadcast before her May, 2016 wedding. Her reason ... she wanted to preserve the surprise for her hubby.

Much to her horror, she recently learned the program is scheduled to air this Friday. She says she begged producers to back down and honor her oral request, but they told her to pound sand.

Cedric the Entertainer says he was PUMPED to learn Ronda Rousey is part black -- saying he hopes her next job is to join the cast of 'Love & Hip Hop' so she can "beat everybody's ass!"

You gotta watch the clip ... Cedric is hilarious -- especially when we asked if the fact that her great-grandfather was black gives her permission to use "the word."

Joe Giudice is getting the bum's rush from Bravo as he enters prison ... at least compared to his wife.

Production sources tell TMZ ... the network will not give Joe the same 3-part special Teresa got when she was in the big house. In fact, Bravo's not doing anything special. Joe will be filmed Wednesday as he enters the prison gates, but it'll be for season 7 of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," which won't air for months.

Joe will essentially disappear from sight during his 41-month stay, unless it affects Teresa and the kids. His story line will only live in her orbit.
