Brittny Gastineau Viciously Attacked in Hotel
Brittny Gastineau was savagely attacked in a West Hollywood hotel room and cops are now involved ... sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ.
Our sources say ... Brittny was at the London Hotel with a male companion -- a man who himself has some fame. We're told Brittny claims the man beat her up badly in the room ... so badly she had to go to the hospital.
Doctors at the hospital felt there was a domestic violence situation and called the police. We're told the police then came to the hospital and interviewed Brittny.
The injuries had to be gruesome, because Brittny was out last night (see pic) -- the attack occurred more than a week ago, and this is what she still looks like.
Our sources say Brittny has hired attorney Shawn Holley who will either force a settlement or sue the alleged perpetrator.
Brittny Gastineau Hey Everyone, Check Out My Big Black Eye
Brittny Gastineau wanted everyone to know ... she got a wicked black eye from someone or something.
Kim Kardashian's BFF showed up at Craig's restaurant in West Hollywood Tuesday night -- the place to go if you want to be photographed by paparazzi. She went there with her mom, who told photogs, "You know, Angels, when they hit earth, it hurts a lot." But they weren't specific.
Now ... if you think they didn't go to Craig's to be photographed, think again, because earlier in the evening they went to Mr. Chow in Bev Hills, the other place in town where you are certain to get papped.
So we're left with this mystery -- who eats 2 dinners?

'Love & Hip Hop' Star Stevie J Busted for Owing A Million Bucks in Child Support
"Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" star Stevie J just learned a hard lesson about being a baby daddy ... you rack up a million-dollar child support debt and you go directly to jail.
Here's what landed Stevie J behind bars. He and his live-in GF had a kid in '97 and '98. In '99 Stevie was ordered to pay around $6,600 a month in child support, which eventually was raised to $8,500.
According to the criminal complaint, Stevie J stopped paying in 2001 -- he's never paid a cent since then. So now the tab is a whopping $1,107,412.
Cops nabbed Stevie J in Georgia (check out the video). He'll probably bail out soon but then has to face criminal charges in NYC.

17-year-old Cody celebrated graduation with Dina, Ali, Michael Jr., and his grandma over the weekend in Long Island -- but 2 people were noticeably missing ... LiLo and good ole daddy dearest, Michael Sr.
While her bro was doing the cap and gown thing -- Linds was exactly where she's been for weeks now ... chilling in London. She's been posting selfies all over the town, and spotted clubbing and shopping.
Michael Lohan's excuse for ditching on Cody? He tells TMZ, his infant son Landon was hospitalized with a high fever -- and since baby mama Kate Major's in jail right now ... he couldn't make it to NY.
Disappointment ... a Lohan family tradition.

Jessica Simpson These Boots Are Made for Stumblin' ... Mom's Drunk Night Out
A wobbly Jessica Simpson hit up Warwick nightclub in Hollywood Sunday night, but from the looks of it ... she did plenty of partying beforehand -- and even had to make a 911 call for fast food to soak up the booze.
Simpson was accompanied by Eric Johnson and it's a good thing he was there ... because somebody had to make sure she didn't fall flat on her face!
Mrs. Weight Watchers -- who did look AMAZING -- had a hard time making her way in and out and definitely seemed to have a hard time answering fairly simple questions. Best part of the video ... the driver making a Jack in the Box run for Jessica WHILE she was in the club!
Lower weight, lesser tolerance.

Kim & Kanye Topless Kim Wedding Painting Wasn't Our Idea
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's egos DO know a limit, after all -- TMZ has learned they are disavowing any knowledge of a partially nude painting of Kim ... allegedly commissioned for their wedding.
A report from across the pond this week said Kanye had contacted a street artist named Bambi to do a thong-baring painting of Kim entitled "Perfect Bitch" -- which, by the way, looks nothing like her in the face. Bambi nailed the ass though.
But sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... neither of them know ANYTHING about this -- no painting was ever ordered, nor does Kim want one. This should sound familiar ... another artist, Monica Warhol, claimed the same thing last year.
We spoke to Bambi's manager, who's standing by Bambi's story and claims Kim's people should be receiving the artwork any day now.
Look for it in a garbage bin outside their home.

Clearly it takes a lot to knock this woman's socks off.

Jennifer Love Hewitt Sues 'Shark Tank' Wannabe ... You Bit My Image
Jennifer Love Hewitt's face is getting spread all over the Internet and she ain't happy about it -- she is suing the company using her image to promote a product the "Shark Tank" investors called a total "scam."
The product is called Slim Spray ... which claims to be an oral vitamin spray that will boost your energy and shed pounds. According to the lawsuit ... J.Love's face and bod have been attached to spam ads (you might have one in your inbox right now) that make it look like she endorses the stuff.
Jennifer claims she's worked too hard to develop her "stellar reputation and credibility" to have it all blown by Slim Spray -- and says she never authorized the company to use her image.
As for the photo of her holding the product -- she implies someone put it in her hand on a red carpet event, snapped a pic ... which ended up on Slim Spray's website and ads.
In the docs -- filed Wednesday in L.A. -- she points out the "Shark Tank" crew dismissed the spray as nothing more than a "hustle."
She wants Marz Group -- the makers of Slim Spray -- to quit using her image ... and she is asking for damages.
