VH1

Sources close to Fleiss tell us it all started when Heidi got into a fight with a castmate during a taping of "Celebrity Rehab" in Los Angeles. Heidi was so upset, she ditched the production and got a ride back to her home in Pahrump, NV. But during the trip home, the car swerved and hit a dirt patch, causing it to flip several times.

The Nye County Sheriff's Office -- located near Pahrump -- tells us Heidi wasn't driving when the SUV lost control ... but she was in the passenger seat and thankfully wearing a seat belt. We're told Heidi and her friend suffered some minor scrapes and bruises -- but essentially walked away with no serious injuries.

But here's the catch -- sources tell TMZ a camera crew showed up to the crash scene the very next day and shot the site for "Celebrity Rehab." In classic Hollywood form, we're told VH1 didn't want people on the show talking about the accident publicly .. hoping to keep the story arc on the down-low until it airs sometime in the near future.

Long actually hosted the premiere party for "Megan Wants a Millionaire," the VH1 show Jenkins was a contestant on. He didn't meet Jenkins, but he says Megan Hauserman told him she never suspected Jenkins was capable of something so horrific.

Jenkins was wanted in connection with the murder of his wife, Jasmine Fiore. He hung himself on August 23.

We've just received the following statement from the production company behind "Megan Wants a Millionaire" -- the now postponed VH1 reality show Ryan Jenkins was a part of.

"51Minds was not aware of Ryan Jenkins' record when it cast him on "Megan Wants a Millionaire." Obviously, if the company had been given a full picture of his background, he would never have been allowed on the show.

The company did have in place what it thought was a thorough vetting process that involved complete background checks by an outside company for all contestants on its shows. Clearly, the process did not work properly in this case. "

Jenkins was convicted for assaulting a girlfriend in 2005.

Royce was busted on June 6 for disturbing the peace and resisting arrest. As you can see in the photos, she began the night working a gig at the Beau Rivage Resort and Casino as a DJ -- but we're told she sucked so bad, she was asked to leave. Cops say she then began yelling and screaming at everyone in sight and had to be pepper sprayed before being escorted out in cuffs.

Things were so bad, we were told by security that if Royce ever comes back, she'll be arrested for trespassing on sight.

LaLa Vazquez, former MTV and current VH1 host -- also known as Carmelo Anthony's fiance -- is putting her 2006 hot Pink Range Rover up for auction on ebay ... Bidding starts at 25K.

A portion of the proceeds go to charity. It sure beats the hell out of a used Kia.

"The truth of the matter is this; I've slept with about 100 people. If you want to call that being a slut, fine."

Interestingly, Webster's defines "slut" as -- "a promiscuous woman."

Dr. Drew Pinsky gave some tough love to all the recovering celebrity addicts on his new show -- by torching all their sexual paraphernalia.

We're told to commemorate the end of an episode of "Sex Rehab with Dr. Drew," the doc took his new band of on-air wannabe rehabbed intercourse junkies on an outing into the woods -- confiscated their assortment of sexual aides, toys and porn -- and threw them into a ceremonial bonfire. Burn, "Horny Baby Mamas 4," Burn!

Sources tell us the good doctor did play it safe and had fire marshals present.

Can't you just smell the scent of burning rubbers?

"Sober House"-mate Mary Carey was so tanked, she was hardly able to stand outside the Key Club -- struggling to keep her eyes open, shouting maniacally, and of course, making out with her lady friend.

Unfortunately, it's more tragic than entertaining .. especially the part where Mary shouted "I'm not sober anymore, but I love Dr. Drew!"

You know you've got a bad show on your hands when people are suing you for putting you in it.

VH1 is being sued by Anne McCourt -- an old lady who lives in Los Angeles -- for defamation after the network aired footage of her in 2007 trashing Paris Hilton on "Celebrity Eye Candy."

According to court documents, McCourt was walking her dog when she stumbled upon a group of cameramen waiting on the street for Paris Hilton. As old people usually do, she approached them to ask what they were doing. When asked about the starlet, McCourt flew into a tirade, saying, "I think she's an ass...I think she's ugly. And I think she's a disgusting human being..."

Problem is, the 81-year-old McCourt apparently didn't know she was was being filmed ... apparently unaware what cameramen actually do for a living. Additionally, McCourt claims that the footage was edited to make it sound as if she had "exposed her private parts" in a way similar to Hilton. Thanks for that, VH1.

The real tragedy here is that Paris is still, according to McCourt, a "disgusting human being"... and she can't sue anyone for it.

Premiering next month on VH1, "The Shot" (from the very same producers as "ANTM") is a competition between 10 aspiring fashion photographers to find the next great ... well, fashion photographer. Russell James fills the role of Tyra on the show -- which is to say he will serve as host and judge, not front his own talk show.

This past week, the cell phone number of eyeliner-wearing, crushed velvet-hat clad Mystery, host of hit VH1 show "The Pick-Up Artist" was posted online. The ladies of Jezebel.com decided to give Mystery a ring. Among the topics discussed: Mystery's favorite rock gods, his sex life, and Scott Baio. Yes, Scott Baio.

Mr. Mystery -- real name Erik Von Markovik -- rambled on about why Scott Baio was "45 and single" as his hit VH1 show proclaims. "It's sort of the same thing as if I were to see Bea Arthur of "The Golden Girls" have sex. Why would I want to watch someone who has already gone through menopause go through that? It's biology. I'm evolutionally calibrated to not find that attractive." Say what? Maybe he's trying to "Neg" Baio.

He also waxed poetic on how hard it is to have a relationship, now that he's known worldwide as a lead lothario. "I've put myself in an interesting position where I have a lot of opportunities. And there are some people on this planet who we're spiritually connected to," he said. So that's what the kids are calling it these days, a "spiritual connection!"

Brandi C. from VH1's "Rock of Love" has been busy since the show wrapped -- shooting a porn flick! Brandi, or as she's named on babygotboobs.com, "Brittany," went straight from filming Brett Michaels' show -- to shooting a threesome. That's a busy girl!

According to her MySpace page, the busty blonde recently walked the red carpet for the first time. She was as relaxed in front of the cameras with her clothes on ... as she is with them off!

Chuckling roast attendees included the "girls" from "Charm School," "Surreal Life" disasters, more-orange-than-ever Carrot Top, Flava Flav himself -- and a wide assortment of celebratory wreckage. Paging Kathy Griffin! As always, VH1's star line-up did not dissappoint -- in the tragically hilarious category.

Although Dr. Alison Arnold on "Scott Baio, 45 and Single" sure looks like the trannylicious Zarf, she is, in fact, a biological woman ... and has a resume to boot! Ali's worked with Olympic athletes, politicians and many other celebrities. She helps people and organizations "take off" limiting beliefs, and "scream" their greatness in the way they live, work, and love. Just like Zarf did!

Chachi, seen here with pal Jason Hervey (Wayne on "Wonder Years"), is now joining the rank ranks of Flava Flav and Bret Michaels on VH1 to search for a soulmate. The show will follow Baio as he tries to find himself while enduring a mid-life crisis, wondering why he's still single and unable to settle down -- not even with his current girlfriend, Renee. Walk away, Renee!

Baio has agreed to fully surrender the next eight weeks of his life to exhaustive introspection with a life coach, Dr. Alison Arnold, otherwise known as "Doc Ali." Doc Ali will try to get to the core of his problem, and Scott will be forced to revisit some ex-girlfriends -- and take a vow of celibacy.
