Former "One Life To Live" star Brandon Buddy's already made a few bad choices in real life this year -- which is kinda written all over his face in this mug shot -- he got busted for DWI in Texas.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... cops were alerted on Sunday when a seemingly intoxicated Buddy -- covered in scratches -- was seen taking off in his car after grabbing beer at an Austin gas station.

After being stopped, an allegedly semi-conscious Buddy was evaluated at a nearby hospital and arrested for DWI.

Buddy's also being investigated for possessing dangerous drugs. Cops say they found prescription meds in his car on Jan. 4th.

He's still in jail for the DWI.

The saddle that was strapped to Seabiscuit's back when the legendary horse won his very last race in 1940 has just sold at auction for more than $100,000 ... TMZ Sports has learned.

It's the saddle ridden by jockey Red Pollard at the 1940 Santa Anita Handicap -- one of the most dramatic races in Seabiscuit's career. After losing the race several times before, Seabiscuit dug deep and emerged victorious in what would be his very last race.

In fact, the race was featured in the 2003 Disney movie about the thoroughbred.

According to Lelands, the company behind the auction, the final sale price was $104,260.06.

So far, the identity of the buyer has not been released.

"Blood, Sweat and Heels" cast member Geneva Thomas will shell out $18 the next time she jumps in a cab ... because her penalty is keeping her nose clean for the next 6 months ... OR ELSE!

We broke the story ... Thomas was busted back in September after cops said she skipped out on an $18 cab fare. Now a deal has been struck ... if she stays out of trouble until July ... the case will go away ... as if it never happened.

Lindsay Lohan got a new gig and this one makes you hit your head it's so obvious ... she's becoming a TV pitchwoman for car insurance.

We've learned Lindsay is shooting a commercial for Esurance, a subsidiary of Allstate, which gives you online or telephonic rate quotes.

We're told Lindsay is shooting the commercial in Long Beach and we're guessing it might just run during the Super Bowl.

Lindsay knows plenty about insurance, because she's made a slew of claims. You'll recall back in 2007 she drove up a median and was arrested for DUI. Later that year she was arrested again after a wild ride on PCH where she allegedly took several dudes hostage. She was busted for DUI ... unclear if there was car damage.

In 2010 she hit a baby stroller in West Hollywood.

In 2012 Lindsay hit a car outside a club. And later that year she slammed into an 18 wheeler on PCH, claiming her brakes failed. Still later in 2012 she struck a man outside the Dream hotel in NYC.

Gotta say ... Esurance must be great, because if they take care of Lindsay you'll surely be in good hands.

One of the "Mob Wives" got whacked -- Ramona Rizzo was hit by a car while walking in NYC, and the perp fled the scene.

TMZ has learned NYPD is investigating the incident -- Rizzo says she was crossing Fifth Ave and 55th St. on Tuesday night when she was hit. Her rep says RR suffered bruises and internal bleeding.

An ambulance took her to a hospital ... where she got treatment for a couple of days.

Our intrepid cameraman -- and host of TMZ Parallel Parking -- hit the jackpot when he spotted an SUV sporting the license plate “B Pitt." So, does Brad Pitt really roll around with such douchey vanity plates? Watch and see!

Hint: C'mon ... do you really need one?

Brad Pitt wants everyone to recognize him on the road, which is why he has the license plate, "B PITT" ... yes, it's ridiculous, but our photog Charlie bought it hook, line and sinker.

Here are the clues Charlie:

1. Brad probably doesn't shop at the Gelson's in Marina del Rey.
2. Pitt famously rides around town on a motorcycle wearing a helmet, which he keeps on for cover even after he dismounts. So red-flagging his identity on a license plate is highly improbable.
3. There's no reason for Brad to tool around town with a walkie talkie.
4. Come on Charlie, it's not Brad Pitt.

Brad Pitt aside ... it's fun watching people park their cars.

Most people can't afford one Bugatti supercar, worth around $2 million -- Floyd Mayweather has THREE.

The boxing champ just showed off his insane car collection -- comprised of some of the most rare and expensive cars in the world.

Here's the checklist with approximate market values ...

Bugatti Veyron -- $2 millionBugatti Veyron -- $2 million Bugatti Grand Sport -- $2 million Ferrari 458 Spider -- $250kFerrari 458 Spider -- $250k Lamborghini Aventador -- $400k Porsche 911 Turbo S $180k Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano -- $300k

Grand total ... $7.3 MILLION.

And unlike Justin Bieber, Mayweather has his own private jet ... and they don't exactly come cheap.

FYI -- Mayweather has reportedly made more than $400 MILLION in his career ... and clearly, he ain't afraid to spend it.

Jordin Sparks sent a clear message to her ex, Jason Derulo -- take your Beemer and shove it ... 'cause I just bought my OWN new wheels. new 4X4 to help get over the rocky split.

Last Christmas -- when they were still banging -- Derulo santa'd up and gave Sparks a flashy BMW ... complete with bows. But Jordin just went out and scooped up a Jeep Rubicon Unlimited for her 25th b-day.

And just to make sure everyone got the diss -- she also deleted Derulo's gift her from Instagram. She's said in interviews she would give it back.

The only remaining question: what does she do with all those big ass bows?

Paul Walker's dad says Roger Rodas' family is holding $1.8 mil worth of his son's exotic car collection ... and he's demanding the cars or cash immediately.

Paul Walker III filed legal docs claiming the estate of Rodas -- who was driving the Porsche Carrera GT when he and Walker died -- is in possession of numerous vehicles belonging to his son.

In the docs, he says the cars were all fully or partially owned by Paul. Of course, Roger and Paul co-owned Always Evolving ... a performance and racing shop.

For what it's worth, Rodas' family already rejected the claim -- so it looks like a judge will have to sort this one out.

Justin Bieber's membership in the private jet club has been revoked -- his baller plane he posted on Instagram Christmas day was all for show, but technically ... NOT a lie.

TMZ has learned the jet Bieber posed on is a G4 -- which is for sale -- but was not purchased by JB. Sources with direct knowledge of the aircraft tell us Justin merely chartered it for a Christmas flight from Canada to NYC. In other words ... just a really expensive Uber.

Justin captioned the pic ... "New jet for Christmas, and she's beautiful" -- prompting many to believe he'd just made the biggest purchase of his life. Not so ... though it's true that it was new to him, and the 22-seat ride is undeniably beautiful.

We were always skeptical ... since Justin's reportedly worth about $200 mil -- and a brand new G could run up to $60 million. Even for Bieber, that would be a huge hit.

Biebs pulled this back in April too -- posing with a Bugatti (it was Birdman's) ... and a yacht (it belonged to a FL family).

The guy who smashed into Jennifer Lopez's brand new Rolls-Royce was bombed -- nearly twice the legal limit -- and now could face time behind bars ... according to prosecutors.

The L.A. County D.A.'s office is charging Robert John Reitz with two misdemeanor counts of DUI for the September rear-ender on Pacific Coast Highway -- and they say his blood alcohol content was an astonishing .15.

You'll recall JLo and her pal Leah Remini were cruising in Jennifer's Rolls at the time of the accident. They posted a pic of themselves looking fabulous ... just seconds before Reitz hit them and fled the scene.

Reitz faces 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted.

Question: What happens when you're pimped out 1975 Chevy Caprice mysteriously goes missing?
Answer: You replace it with an even PIMPER one!

At least that's how problems are solved in Antonio Cromartie's household ... where the Arizona Cardinals star's wife just surprised him with a pretty bad ass classic whip.

Long story short ... Cromartie loves classic cars and had a customized '75 Caprice that he LOVED in San Diego back when he was with the Chargers. But when he left for the NY Jets, the car went missing.

Fast forward to 2014 ... Antonio's wife Terricka knew A.C. missed that car -- so she surprised him with a new one for Xmas ... a '73 Caprice with red leather interior, a soft-top roof and 20-inch custom rims with red trim.

"He had been looking for one for a while so I surprised him with it," Terricka tells us. We're told Antonio immediately fell in love with the car and already has plans to trick it out even more!

1st Rule of "Private Jet Club" ... TELL EVERYBODY ABOUT PRIVATE JET CLUB!!

After Justin Bieber showed off the brand new set of wings he got himself for Xmas, his pal (and boxing trainer) Floyd Mayweather welcomed him to one of the most elite clubs on the planet.

"@JustinBieber Welcome to the Jet Club!" Mayweather wrote.

"Yes, I got a 14 passenger jet. Got to give them another reason to hate, but I will motivate the people that are ambitious and want to be winners in life. I am guilty! "

He continued, "I'm materialistic & I'm motivated by money...but GOD is first in my life. GOD will not give you anything you can't handle. That's why GOD gave me the best hands in the business to pray with, box with and count money with."

WWE superstar Sheamus may not be a champ anymore, but he's still living like one -- dropping a bundle on the crown jewel for all exotic car lovers ... who also happen to love "Back to the Future."

Our sources tell us the Celtic Warrior went searching for a DeLorean last weekend -- and hit up Just Toys Classic Cars in Orlando for a test drive. He clearly fell in love with it on the spot ... 'cause he scooped it up for around $55K.

Unclear if Seamus is a "Future" fanatic ... but he can forget about a road trip to 1955. The seller tells us the car -- which is more than 30-years-old -- has a "tough time getting to 88 miles per hour."

Buyer beware!

Swaggy P ain't the only Lakers player rollin' around on some fresh new wheels ... TMZ Sports has learned teammate Wesley Johnson just dropped $205k on a pimped out Aston Martin!!

We're told ... the 4th overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft recently hit up Roadstarr Motorsports in L.A. looking to get a Christmas gift for himself.

He picked out a 2014 Aston Martin Rapide -- 0 to 60 in 4.7 seconds -- and customized it with a pearl white paint job that featured a matte black center.

The interior ... burgundy Italian leather with white stitching -- plus 10-inch monitors on the back of the front seats.

Plus ... 20-inch rims (we're told Wesley was adamant about dubs.)
