Josh Hartnett 911 -- Abdominal Pains

Josh HartnettJosh Hartnett was taken to Cedars-Sinai hospital early this morning, ending his night at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood.

The 911 call came in at 12:53 AM and the caller said abdominal pains were the issue.

The ambulance picked up Josh at about 2:00 AM. He walked on his own power -- no stretcher was needed.

UPDATE 12:57 PM We're told Josh was in "excruciating pain" last night, because of gastrointestinal issues. We're told he may have picked up some sort of stomach virus while shooting a movie overseas, and he's had ongoing stomach issues as a result. He's seeing a specialist today.

Halle Berry Gets Bad Gas

The paparazzi saved Halle Berry's life!!! Or at least her car.

Halle Berry
As you can clearly see, Halle started to pump diesel gas into her Lexus SUV -- but the paps stopped her before any damage was done.

In her defense, diesel gas is better for the environment and provides better fuel economy.

Mary-Kate Olsen -- Human Torch

She only weighs 48 pounds, so it wouldn't take much for the highly flammable Mary-Kate Olsen to go up in smoke. Hence a bad idea to pump gas with a cell phone in hand.

John Mayer Makes the Switch from Jen

Perhaps John Mayer misses the sweet smell of Jennifer Aniston. But really, John, a man-kini on a cruise ship?

Children's Org to Madonna: Leave the Kids Alone!

MadonnaMadonna's efforts to adopt another child are seriously under fire by a British organization that says she needs to ease up on the whole "give a kid a chance" thing.

According to a statement released by Save the Children UK, Madonna may be sending the wrong message by going through with her plans to adopt a second child from the poor African country, Malawi. A welfare official and a person involved in the adoption proceedings said the singer plans to adopt a 4-year-old girl.

The org believes Madonna's actions may unintentionally feed more interest into the criminal adoption industry in Malawi. Madonna faced criticism during the adoption of her son David Banda in 2008 after she allegedly circumvented the traditional two year waiting period by using her money and influence.

Some people may think buying people is wrong ... but everyone agrees that living with Madonna would be way worse.

Zac Efron -- Wax On, Wax Off

Zac Efron returned to the US of A yesterday and it appears he has cleaned house.

Zach Efron
You may recall/never forget the photo we posted yesterday, showing both of Zac's ears laden with wax.

After giving the Brits an earful, Zac came home to L.A. It's not entirely clear if his ears are as squeaky clean as "High School Musical," but we're guessing a Q-tips-toting publicist was all ears after seeing the post.

Megan Fox -- In the Mood for a Shag

Megan Fox was spotted out in Los Angeles yesterday, shopping for carpet.

Rihanna -- Armed and Dangerous

Welcome to Rihanna's gun show.



Rihanna recently flew her tattoo artist BangBang out to Los Angeles. Turns out the shoulder tats are just outlines which Rihanna opted not to go with because of her CoverGirl obligations. RiRi got the gun inked under her pit instead.

Rihanna Back to Glam Self

Rihanna hit the town last night ... as in West Hollywood ... Nobu for dinner, then clubbing at Les Deux. And speaking of clubbing, Chris Brown was nowhere in sight.

In divorce papers filed yesterday in L.A. County Superior Court, Helgenberger cited irreconcilable differences with Rosenberg, who happens to be the president of the Screen Actors Guild -- S.A.G.

Piven Plays the Obama Card

No one believed him before, so now Jeremy Piven is dragging Barack Obama into his war over the "mercury poisoning" excuse he used to get out of a Broadway play a few months ago.



With today's announcement that there will be an arbitration hearing over the matter in June, Piven's peeps just released a statement saying:

"Mr. Piven is looking forward to testifying in Arbitration along with his doctors so that the truth comes out about the very serious health risks caused by Mercury exposure, which the Obama administration has recently described as the world's gravest chemical problem."

Well, if Obama thinks it's a problem -- people have no choice but to believe him now, right?

Britney's Body Is Mad Crazy

The longer her Resurrection of Britney Tour rolls on, the hotter Ms. Spears appears to get.

Feud Between Akon and Suge Triggered Robbery

We've now spoken with one of the victims of the home invasion robbery early this morning -- a man who works for Detail, Akon's producer -- and he says Suge Knight and money are behind the incident.

Christopher Walker tells us at about 3:00 AM five men broke into his home with guns and said they were there to collect a debt on behalf of Suge Knight. They claimed Detail owed Suge money, and then proceeded to collect on the debt.

Walker says Detail was asleep in one of the bedrooms. The men entered the bedroom but did not get Detail out of bed. Instead, they stole $170,000 worth of jewelry from his room.

Walker adds they demanded a key to the safe and said they would kill all four people in the house if they didn't get it. The robbers didn't get the key -- instead, they took the 130 pound safe.

Walker says they also took stereo equipment and a key to a Mercedes. He claims the total heist was more than $200,000. A police source tells us it's more like $300,000.

Walker says the feud ignited in Arizona during NBA All-Star weekend when Suge got his face smashed in by two men who worked for Akon. Walker says that incident was over the same alleged debt that triggered this morning's home invasion.

Walker says the robbers put a gun to his head and forced him to the ground but he and the others were just scratched up. Walker's brother and a sound engineer were also in the house.

Akon's Employee Robbed at Gunpoint

One of Akon's employees got a special visit last night -- from some home invasion robbers.

TMZ has learned four to five "black males" -- brandishing firearms -- rolled into a Van Nuys home occupied by a man who works for Akon last night and took a bunch of his stuff, including expensive stereo and recording equipment. Total heist value: $300,000.

We're also told keys to a Mercedes were stolen.

We're told detectives are on the scene right now.

Guy Ritchie -- Lock, Stock and One Black Eye

Timbaland -- Blackground Blackballed Me

This is a story about a recording artist who became a big shot record producer ... so big, his own people allegedly wanted to take him down.

Timbaland is going after his record label, Blackground Records, claiming they didn't utter a peep when he first decided to make his move from "performer" to "producer." But then things got ugly...

In his lawsuit, filed today in Federal District court, Timbaland claims he just got too damn successful as a producer -- and the record label couldn't contain its jealously and hostility for him.

Timbaland alleges Blackground went on a McCarthy-esque search-and-destroy campaign, contacting various record labels and giving them a million reasons why they shouldn't hire Timbaland to produce songs.

To add insult to injury, Timbaland claims Blackground also stiffed him out of serious cash. Now, he wants out of the contract and unspecified damages.

I Paid My $$$, Now Bring Me Angelina!!!

Angelina JolieUPDATE -- A rep for the Lili Claire Foundation tells TMZ, "The Lili Claire Foundation has a 100% track record of honoring its commitment to donors and recipients with respect to every single auction item sold to support its charitable services. In the rare event that a sold auction item cannot be satisfactorily delivered to the winning bidder through no fault of our own, The Lili Claire Foundation works faithfully for an appropriate resolution with our bidder."

Would you pay $30,000 to NOT meet Angelina Jolie? That would be just nuts, right?

A man is suing the Lili Claire Foundation after he claims he forked over $30K (on his Amex) to meet Mrs. Brad Pitt -- only it's two years later and he hasn't gotten the meet and greet he paid for ... or his money back.

He wants his money back, plus damages.

Chris Brown Won't Hit Books at Norfolk State

Chris BrownDespite his affinity for combat, Chris Brown won't be a Spartan anytime soon -- as in the kind who attend Norfolk State University.

After Brown was spotted on the campus grounds in his home state of Virginia this weekend, TMZ has confirmed Brown was only there as a "support factor" for his cousin, who is a prospective student.

Brown, his mother and his cousin spent their Saturday taking the First View campus tour -- a guided, private trek through the entire Norfolk campus, including the dorms, the offices and the classrooms.

We're told some people recognized Brown on the tour, but sources close to the situation tell us, "People know whats going on with him and they were not paying him much attention at all."

We're also told Brown has "not applied," has "not enrolled" and is "not interested" in attending NSU at this point.

Too bad ... dude has a lot to learn.

The attorneys representing Jamie Spears have racked up more than $1 mil in fees.

Angelina Jolie's Mom Taxed After Death

Angelina JolieThe fact that Angelina Jolie's mom owes over $60 grand in back taxes to the state of California isn't totally shocking -- until you remember she passed away in January 2007.

The state filed a creditor's claim against the estate of Marcheline Bertrand last week. According to the filing, she owes $43,699 in back taxes -- add on $10,924.75 in penalties and $$8,304.95 in interest, for a grand total of $62,928.70.

Now Hiring: People To Emotionally Abuse

Watch out normal people, it looks like the new Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman movie is going to be a little cruel.

Jennifer Aniston

According to a recent Craigslist posting, the casting crew for "The Baster" is looking for a "heavy set woman" and a "woman with a round face, small eyes, and upturned nose" to have profanities shouted at them in a scene for the movie. Also, they're looking for a skinny boy with bad acne. He'll probably have profanities thrown at him too.

Any one interested in letting beautiful celebrities demean them can reply to the post -- but only if you live in the New York area.

Natalie Portman may need to be hospitalized for exhaustion, because she's really pooped.

While in West Hollywood on Thursday, the 27-year-old starlet used leaves to dislodge a dingleberry.
