Jon Cryer Helmet Saved My LIFE During Bloody Bike Crash
Moments after his gnarly bike crash this weekend, a battered Jon Cryer credited ONE THING with saving his life -- his bike helmet -- claiming he could've been killed ... if not for the protective headgear.
The "Two and a Half Men" actor withdrew from Sunday's Nautica Malibu Triathlon due to his injuries -- which he proudly shows off in the video -- and on his way off the course, a still-bloody Cryer pointed to his helmet and said, "Thank God for this bad boy."
But Cryer's not giving up -- claiming he still plans to participate in next year's triathlon ... at least the non-biking portions.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Bynes was pulled over in her black BMW around 9:00 AM in Burbank, CA. We're told when cops ran her license they discovered it was suspended.
According to our sources, cops impounded the vehicle and issued her a misdemeanor ticket for driving on a suspended license.
As TMZ first reported, Bynes was pulled over on September 9 -- but despite having the suspended license, she was given only a verbal warning and let go.
She was not as lucky this time.

Amanda Bynes FENDER BENDER While Still Driving Illegally
Amanda Bynes came one step closer to disaster Thursday night when she was driving around West Hollywood -- on a suspended license -- and got into an accident ... though, luckily, it was minor.
Amanda was driving her black BMW 5-series out of a parking lot on Sunset Boulevard around 10:30 PM when she tapped the bumper of a white car in front of her, leaving little or no damage.
Amanda was attempting to cover her face when she love-tapped the other vehicle -- and both drivers left without exchanging information on the scene. In fairness to Amanda, some of the photogs were very close ... training bright lights on her face.
It's unclear if the other driver reported the fender bender to cops, but it's a damn good bet Amanda and her suspended license did NOT.
TMZ published photos of Amanda smoking a marijuana pipe during a day of aimless driving around the San Fernando Valley on Tuesday.
Those pics and Amanda's recent driving record -- DUI arrest, multiple hit-and-run allegations -- have several cops worried she's going to kill someone on the road.

Myla Sinanaj Kris Humphries' Mercedes Is MINE Now
Kris Humphries and his on-again girlfriend Myla Sinanaj are so chummy ... the NBA star actually gave Myla his ridiculously expensive Mercedes-Benz -- at least for now.
Myla arrived home to her house today in Rutherford, NJ driving Kris' white Mercedes -- and we KNOW it's his Mercedes because he's been driving the same car forever ... long before Myla even entered the picture.
We asked Myla what she was doing in the whip, and she insisted, "It's my car. It's not his car."
Which means she's either bending the truth, or Kris actually gave her the ride. In either case, it's obvious things are heating up between the two.
Nevertheless, Myla says, "We're just friends, hanging out."
Suuuuuuuuuuuuure.

Justin Bieber Driving Without A License
Justin Bieber's precious Fisker Karma sports car has been violated ... 'cause the back license plate is MISSING and the culprit is still at large ... according to law enforcement sources.
We're told J.B.'s property manager noticed the missing plate last night while working at the Bieb's Calabasas mansion.
Fully realizing the seriousness of the offense, the manager called the L.A. County Sheriff's Department ... which shockingly came out and took a report.
It's unclear if the missing plate was stolen or just fell off. This could mean the Biebs will temporarily have to sideline his paparazzi magnet ... because it's illegal to drive without a back plate.
Justin Bieber in a beater Toyota? Now that's the shot we want.

Cheech & Chong Car Crashes Into House from 'Next Movie'
We swear we're not high ... but a car crashed into an East LA house last week that just happened to be the EXACT SAME HOUSE Cheech & Chong smashed up in a movie over 30 years ago. Far out, man!
In the 1980 classic "Cheech & Chong's Next Movie," the stoner duo crashes their sweet van onto the front lawn of a house ... and then drives through the fence on the way out.
Cut to last week when a Chevy HHR drove through the fence of the very same house. The homeowner tells us he wasn't home at the time of crash and is currently getting a repair estimate for the fence.
And get this ... the owner says he didn't even know he was living in the house from the movie until this accident happened.
Trippy, bro!

Justin Bieber Paparazzi CRASH After Chasing Him
Justin Bieber was in the middle of a crazy incident Friday afternoon, which ended with 2 paparazzi crashing into each other ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
Justin was either a passenger or the driver in his Fisker Karma (it's unclear because we have shots of him in both seats), which was traveling down Ventura Blvd. A CHP officer happened to pass him, and noticed a Nissan driving "aggressively close behind."
The cop stopped Justin for tinted windows, knowing that the Nissan would probably stop ... which it did. Turns out ... the Nissan was being driven by someone in Justin's security detail.
As the cop was speaking to Justin, several paparazzi roared up to the scene. Two of them in separate cars apparently lost control, hit each other and went up on the curb.
As far as we know, no one was cited.

Vince Neil BLOWS UP on Valet -- 'GIVE ME MY F**KING CAR!'
Vince Neil exploded on a group of parking attendants at the Planet Hollywood in Vegas last week -- banging on windows and screaming "GIVE ME MY F**KING CAR" ... and the outburst was all caught on tape.
It's unclear why the Mötley Crüe singer was so pissed -- and he was REALLY pissed -- but according to sources on scene, Vince flew off the handle when the valet refused to return his Rolls-Royce.
In the video, you can see Vince walk over to the valet booth, yelling, "Give me my f**king car! Give me my f**king car! Give me my car!" -- and then bang on the window.
Vince continues, "Call the police! This is my car. What the f**k is wrong with you?"
We're told the parking attendants wouldn't hand over the vehicle because Vince couldn't produce a parking ticket. You can hear Vince respond in the video, saying, "They didn't give me a f**king ticket!"
According to sources, police were called to the scene -- but by the time they arrived, Vince had already taken off ... and the valet company decided against filing a report. So that's that.
Calls to Vince Neil's camp were not returned.
