TMZ had a chat with Bam about the whole assault by baseball bat thing, and he shed some light on what caused the incident. Apparently the woman who hit him “lives connected” to his bar, and this isn’t the first time she’s taken issue with him.  As Bam says,

“She calls the police nonstop.  She’s punched me in the face, filed a police report.  And then she’s threatened to kill me twice, filed two police reports.  She threatened to kill Missy, my wife, for no reason, and then she threatened to burn the place down and then she hit me over the head with a baseball bat.”

After she did that last part, Bam says she called the police and told them that he was hit by a car, but when he regained consciousness, he set that straight real quick.

As for his condition, he says he was “internally bleeding in the brain for two days,” and he has several staples that seem to be holding his scalp together.  He left the hospital to fly to L.A. so he could film the opener to Jackass 3, which was supposed to be each cast member being punched in the face and filmed in slow motion.  Way to fuck up some plans, crazy woman.  And, you know, I guess for almost killing someone as well.

This video has been making the rounds here in Seattle. A cop tried to cite a few teenagers for jaywalking, and when they resisted, the cop punched a teenage girl in the face. INSANE. I’m not a cop-hater, but videos like this remind me why a lot of folks are.

The full story, from KOMO News, is after the jump.

OK, well, no, she’s not a “big, fat” hypocrite, but she’s a hypocrite, nevertheless.

Hewitt speaks exclusively to People magazine and decries the media machine that perpetuates the idea that “thin is in.” Kind of. Hewitt states that a woman should “love” the way she “looks,” because it’s all she’s got — in a manner of speaking:

“I just really worked on my mental part for a couple of weeks, got myself in a really good mindset,” she says, adding that she was “bummed out” and “had to get over the embarrassment of the photos.

The aforementioned photos were the notorious photos that were taken of the star a few years back when she was a bit heavier than she is now.

I really want to like this girl. Honestly, I really, really do. But her constant waffling about what’s “in” and what’s not really puts me off, not to mention the fact that she constantly spouts advice on topics that she kind of has no idea about whatsoever. When she claimed a few years ago that she didn’t care what the media thought of her then-rounder figure, I really respected her. She allowed herself to be photographed in a shape that Hollywood considers “fat” and “undesirable,” and she claimed not to care what the public thought, as long as she was happy about herself. I liked that, and it was because she had gone from a skinny-mini Hollywood starlet to a more normalized version of a person who’s not eighty pounds soaking wet, and it was refreshing.

Hewitt also states that while she’s lost a bunch of weight (but doesn’t specify how much), she’s still a “work in progress,” and feels that a few months from now, she’ll be where she wants to be:

“I think I’m a work in progress,” she admits. “[But] I feel it’s so much better than [it was] a year-and-a-half ago, and I feel like in another eight months, it’s going to be so much better than it is today.”

Yeah, either that, or you’re going to join the ranks of Kate Moss and all of the other thinspired Hollywood starlets that don’t have an inch to pinch, and jutting bones that stick out at all odd angles.

Uh-huh. I’m confused at her sudden change of heart on the topic of bodily acceptance. Speaking out now and saying that she was, indeed, embarrassed by the release of those photos? I feel misled. And I’m definitely kind of bummed.

Despite rumors that Amy’s in rehab, she was spotted out with new boyfriend, Reg Traviss, leaving club Jazz After Dark in the SoHo district of London last night.

Jazz After Dark. Crafty little name, that. Makes me think of the original Beverly Hills 90210 with the After Dark. And the Peach Pit. And when Brian Austin Green wasn’t wearing eyeliner and wasn’t pussy-whipped by a girl who’s supposedly much less talented than he could ever hope to be. Clearly, we’re in some kind of bad B movie, here, with this Jazz After Dark business. I dig jazz. And I’m quite fond of the dark, but come on. You couldn’t do better than that, SoHo district of London? You’re the height of cool, the sultan of, uh, swing, and the model that sets the example of what it is to be hip. You really couldn’t come up with something better than … ah, fuck, forget it.

I’ll be honest, though – she and Reg make a really 40′s-fabulous couple together. I love the getups, the hair (um, kind of) and the whole black pinstripe-and-tommy-gun-looking combination.

I just can’t believe she’s still wearing those beat-ass ballet slippers.

I’m just so torn and confused. Ryan Seacrest, who’s actually grown on me over the years, was photographed earlier in the week, sauntering wait, no, straight guys don’t saunter walking along the beach with Dancing With the Stars Julianne Hough. The two look cozy, and Seacrest doesn’t look all that pleased to be photographed, which is surprising, considering who he is and what he does for a living.

This isn’t the first time the two have been linked — they were said to have attended a “cozy” dinner a few months back where the two shared “intimate kisses.”

Well, either way, sweet. I love Ryan. And if he’s happy, then I’m happy. And if he’s dating Julianne Hough, great, and if he’s using her as a decoy in order to get into her brother Derek’s much-tighter pants, so be that, too.
