A call to Brosnan's lawyer was not returned.

The "Real World" loon David "Puck" Rainey was at a '90s throwback party at Jet nightclub in Las Vegas Monday night. Fourteen years hasn't change much -- he spouted out gems like "my wife doesn't care where I put my b**ls, as long as I don't bring back any bugs."
What's more shocking: that Puck has managed to stay alive this long or that he was invited to a party at all?

When you have seven children from five different women you need a big house.
Lucky for Rod Stewart, his 18,700 square foot Beverly Hills estate has 8 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms on 4 acres of land-- enough space for everyone to play nice.
The place is huge, but to put it in perspective, Candy Spelling's new apartment is smaller by about 2,000 square feet. Her APARTMENT!

Paris Hilton scoffed at L.A. suburb Glendale on her blog a few weeks back, claiming she's strictly a Bev Hills gal and hasn't been to the G spot in months.
But get this: Law enforcement tells us yesterday at 3:20 PM, Paris was pulled over by the CHP on the 134 freeway in GLENDALE ... near the offramp where wrong-way Nicole Richie was busted for DUI in 2006.
Paris was pulled over for weaving (a non hair-related offense) and offered officers this explanation: "I'm lost." Always a good defense in court.
She was given a warning and went off on her merry way. No word if she ever found out how to get home.

Britney Spears is a famously bad driver and it may be an inherited trait.
According to the Enquirer, in 1975 Lynne hit and killed a 12-year-old boy who was riding his bike in Kentwood. The article says Lynne was driving her brother to the hospital when the incident occurred.
A rep for Lynne told the tabloid "It bothers Lynne still to this day," adding, "She really doesn't like to talk about it. She just wanted to forget that it ever happened -- but she can't."

Mindy McCready is going back to rehab after trying to do herself in with her favorite swiggable and pharmaceutical -- vodka and Ambien -- and we hear Dr. Phil's inserting himself in the whole she-bang.
TMZ has learned the troubled McCready went off the deep end late last week after getting dumped by her boyfriend and collapsed while on the phone with her mother. She downed a bottle of vods and pills in what we're told was a "suicide attempt."
She's headed to Arizona for treatment, and a source says that was all Phil's idea. We're told he's taken Mindy under his wing as a "personal project." As for whether or not she'll be on the show, time will tell.
We contacted Phil -- so far, no answer. Mindy's peeps had no comment.
UPDATE: A rep for the good Dr. P tells TMZ, "Dr. Phil has not treated patients one-on-one since his show went on air. Ms. McCready's situation is private and we respect her right to privacy in a difficult time."

The hubby of "A Different World's" favorite southern belle has filed his response to her divorce filing. Paging Kadeem Hardison!
Jasmine Guy's soon-to-be ex Terrence Duckett filed the documents last Friday in L.A. County Superior Court in response to his estranged wife's original filing. These simple docs are a far cry from Whitley's first try at divorce. In those papers, filed in April, Guy listed two pages of things as her "separate property," including her wedding ring, paintings, sculptures, her BlackBerry, DVD players, pots, pans, and a toaster. Where's the kitchen sink? No word on why Duckett refiled the papers.
Duckett is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their nine-year-old daughter Imani.

We're told a judge in Yonkers City Court will set bail for the rassler after reviewing a couple of felonies Sandman racked up in Pennsylvania years ago.
Sandman -- real name Jim Fullington -- allegedly went nutzo during a fight that happened during a 75th b-day party for wrestling legend Capt. Lou Albano.

Sources tell TMZ Christian Bale has had a long-standing difficult relationship with his mom and Bale's camp believes the motivation for the whole assault charge may be $$$.
We're told when Christian's mom and dad divorced nearly two decades ago, his mom forced him to choose between the two. Christian picked his dad, and father and son moved out to L.A. in 1992, where his dad became his manager.
Somehow Bale's relationship with the mom has been "bitter" ever since. Bale has told friends his mother was extremely jealous of both his and his dad's success.
Last Sunday, Bale let his mom and sis into his hotel suite, though it was by no means an olive branch. As we first reported, there was physical contact, but somewhere in between a push and a brush. No one fell and no one was hurt.
Christian's camp thinks this could be nothing more than a shakedown. We're told some newspapers and mags have already been throwing around "insane" amounts of money for the story, so mom and sis could score big.
But our sources say the cops are starting to see the whole thing Christian's way, and the charges could disappear faster than Batman.
