Drugs & Alcohol

Tommy Lee forced himself on a woman in a helicopter cockpit ... groping her, kissing her and penetrating her against her consent ... according to a new lawsuit.

The Motley Crüe rocker is being sued by a woman who says the alleged sexual assault happened way back in February 2003 when she was riding in a chopper with Tommy and another man.

In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, the woman says she was friends with the helicopter pilot, and he invited her on a tour of San Diego County ... but when she got to the airfield, Tommy was there, and she was told the plans changed and they would all three be riding up to Los Angeles.

The woman claims she felt pressured to go, and once airborne she says Tommy and the pilot started drinking alcohol, smoking weed and snorting cocaine.

In the docs, the woman says the men pressured her to come up to the cockpit and sit on Tommy's lap ... and as soon as she obliged, she says Tommy forced himself on her.

The woman claims Tommy began groping and kissing her, but when she tried to pull away he became more forceful. She claims he penetrated her with his fingers while fondling her breasts.

In the suit, the woman claims Tommy also pulled down his pants and attempted to force her head down towards his genitals.

She says, when they got to Los Angeles, Tommy hugged her and bounced and then the pilot flew her back to San Diego in silence.

In the docs, she says the alleged incident left her feeling shock, distress, humiliation, shame and guilt ... claiming she didn't go to the cops because she didn't think she would be taken seriously.

Since the alleged incident, the woman says she's suffered from anxiety, depression, PTSD and other physical and psychological harms ... and she's going after Tommy for damages.

"Botched" star Dr. Terry Dubrow is over the moon about Oprah opening up about using weight-loss medication ... 'cause, in his eyes, it's a move that could save lives.

Dr. Dubrow joined us Thursday on "TMZ Live," singing Oprah's praises for admitting she's used meds as part of her weight loss journey ... and telling us the trend of shaming folks for using medication like Ozempic needs to stop.

He says celebs have been hesitant to be as honest as Oprah was ... often attributing their weight loss to working out or hormones, but in the doc's eyes, it's time they felt comfortable to speak candidly.

Dr. Dubrow thinks a really popular celeb, like O, opening up the discussion could start a trend -- or at least a discussion -- that leads to the general public warming to the use of these meds to combat obesity.

As he points out, we wouldn't shame people who take insulin for diabetes ... so doing so for someone who needs it to lose weight is equally ridiculous.

As we reported, Oprah lost 40 lbs this year and told PEOPLE the medicine she was prescribed was a healthier alternative for her -- this after she realized her struggles with weight loss were less about willpower and more about the brain.

La estrella de "Botched", el Dr. Terry Dubrow, está encantado con la honestidad de Oprah al decir que usa medicamentos para bajar de peso, ya que desde su perspectiva, se trata de una medida que podría salvar vidas.

El Dr. Dubrow se unió a nosotros el jueves en "TMZ Live", para elogiar a Oprah por admitir que ha usado medicamentos como parte de su viaje para perder peso y nos dice que la tendencia de avergonzar a la gente por usar remedios como Ozempic tiene que parar.

Él dice que las celebridades han sido reacias a ser tan sinceras como Oprah y a menudo atribuyen su pérdida de peso a las hormonas o al ejercicio, pero en los ojos del doctor, es hora de que se sientan cómodas de hablar con franqueza.

El Dr. Dubrow cree que una celebridad tan popular como Oprah Winfrey podría iniciar una tendencia -o al menos un debate- que lleve al público en general a abrirse al uso de estos medicamentos para combatir la obesidad.

Como señala, no avergonzaríamos a las personas que toman insulina para la diabetes, por lo que hacerlo para alguien que lo necesita para perder peso es igual de ridículo.

Como informamos, Oprah perdió 40 libras este año (unos 18 kilos) y le dijo a la gente que el medicamento que le habían recetado era una alternativa más saludable para ella. Esto, después de que se diera cuenta de que sus luchas con la pérdida de peso tenían menos que ver con la fuerza de voluntad y más con el cerebro.

Buster Posey says San Francisco's current issues with crime and drugs might very well be the reason Shohei Ohtani is currently wearing Dodger blue instead of Giants orange.

The S.F. legend -- who was part of the Giants' consortium that made its pitch to Ohtani recently to get him to sign with the Bay Area squad -- got candid with The Athletic after S.F. lost its pursuit of the two-way superstar to LA ... making it clear he thinks his former team's city truly impacted Shohei's free agency decision.

"Something I think is noteworthy," the three-time World Series champ said, "something that unfortunately keeps popping up from players and even the players' wives is there's a bit of an uneasiness with the city itself, as far as the state of the city, with crime, with drugs."

"Whether that's all completely fair or not," Posey continued, "perception is reality."

Posey added that while Ohtani himself never explicitly brought any of it up -- he said there was definitely some in the designated hitter's camp who did have "some reservation with the state of the city right now."

Ohtani is one of many big-name free agents who have passed up the chance to play in San Francisco recently -- last year, the Giants famously missed out on Aaron Judge, and in the past, they've swung and missed on guys like Bryce Harper and Seiya Suzuki too.

In his interview with The Athletic, Posey made it known the perception of S.F.'s current lifestyle might have had a big role in all of it.

"It's a frustrating cycle, I think, and not just with baseball," Posey said. "Baseball is secondary to life and the important things in life. But as far as a free-agent pursuit goes, I have seen that it does affect things."

Ohtani ultimately ended up inking a 10-year, $700 million contract with a LA -- a deal that Giants president of baseball operations Farhan Zaidi said this week was nearly identical to the one S.F. had offered.

Posey said he eventually hopes the tide will end up turning ... adding, "It's been well documented that we've come up short for a number of years now."

Oprah Winfrey está superando décadas de vergüenza ligada a su cuerpo y está admitiendo que toma medicamentos para bajar de peso, a pesar de que previamente dijo que nunca lo había hecho.

Después de deshacerse de 40 libras este año, la multimillonaria magnate de la televisión ha terminado con las conversaciones crueles e insensibles acerca de su apariencia, respecto a si usa o no farmacéuticos para adelgazar.

Oprah le dice a PEOPLE que un médico le recetó los medicamentos después de su serie "La vida que quieres", "El estado de peso" grabando en julio, donde se dio cuenta de que ella no tenía la culpa de tener sobrepeso, señalando que era más sobre el cerebro que la fuerza de voluntad.

Con una nueva mentalidad, Oprah dice que los medicamentos para bajar de peso son una alternativa más saludable para ella en lugar de seguir intentando de la "manera convencional", y agrega que toma la droga bajo supervisión médica y solo cuando es necesario.

Los medicamentos aparecieron justo antes de Acción de Gracias, porque sabía que se aproximaban "dos semanas de alimentación sólida", y como resultado, dice que solo ganó media libra en lugar de ocho.

Recordamos que Oprah dijo a principios de este año durante una charla con el CEO de WeightWatchers Sima Sistani, que algunos medicamentos para bajar de peso como el Ozempic y Mounjaro eran una "salida fácil"

Oprah Winfrey is overcoming decades of shame attached to her body, and she's admitting taking weight-loss medication ... even though she previously said she'd never do that to slim down.

After shedding 40 lbs this year, the billionaire TV mogul is done with cruel and insensitive conversations about her appearance -- gushing that pharmaceutical assistance has changed her relationship with her figure.

Oprah tells PEOPLE a doctor prescribed the meds to her following her "Life You Want" series' "The State Of Weight" taping back in July, where she realized she wasn't to blame for being overweight ... noting it was more about the brain than willpower.

With a new mindset, Oprah says weight-loss meds are a healthier alternative for her rather than yo-yo-ing, and she takes the medically-approved drug as, and when, needed.

Case in point, she took them just before Thanksgiving cause she knew she had "two weeks of solid eating" ... and, as a result, says she only gained half a pound rather than eight.

This comes in stark contrast to Oprah labeling weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro an "easy way out" earlier this year during a chat with WeightWatchers CEO Sima Sistani.

Kodak Black's attorney says the rapper's arrest for cocaine possession is a case of mistaken identity ... at least when it comes to the drugs cops allegedly found on him.

Bradford Cohen, Kodak's lawyer, just reacted to his client's most recent arrest in Florida, saying ... "In this latest case, my belief is that the 'rock' this officer found when tested will be a Percocet, not cocaine."

As we reported ... Kodak was arrested last week after cops said he was found asleep at the wheel of an SUV with a mouth full of white powder and several white rock-like objects on the ground ... which Kodak alleged was Percocet.

The arresting officer tested the powder on the scene and says it came back positive for cocaine ... but Kodak's attorney says, "The test they do is a presumptive test for illegal substances. It just turns blue."

Kodak was ultimately arrested for possession, tampering with evidence, and violation of his existing probation ... with a traffic violation tacked on.

Cohen tells TMZ ... the rapper has a dependency on prescription pain pills, including Percocet, and his team is working on a treatment program for him.

Cohen tells us ... "There will be a couple of different phases of this treatment in order for him to get better. You have to treat the root problem of the dependency and that's what is going to happen. We are going to alleviate dependency."

Roger Clemens' son, Kory, has been sentenced in his DWI case and will spend the next year on probation after striking a plea deal with prosecutors, TMZ Sports has learned.

According to court documents, Kory Clemens -- one of the MLB legend's four sons -- agreed to plead guilty on Tuesday to one misdemeanor count of driving while intoxicated ... and was hit with a 180-day jail sentence, which was suspended, so he'll instead be on probation for the next 12 months.

The docs show that as part of the deal, the 35-year-old Clemens must complete several requirements -- including no drugs or alcohol, three AA meetings a week, plus a DWI education class and more.

We reached out to Kory's attorney for comment, but so far, no word back yet.

Kory was initially charged in the case back in April ... after authorities alleged he struck a vehicle while drunk at 2:22 AM in the Houston, Texas area.

Cops alleged Kory was throwing up at the scene ... and officers say he reeked of booze, had bloodshot eyes and struggled to walk.

Rapper Quando Rondo was arrested Friday on federal drug charges ... TMZ has confirmed.

The Savannah rapper was taken into custody Friday without incident. Cops say Quando was a passenger in a car that was pulled over. The vehicle was pulled over with the intention of arresting Quando and not because of a traffic violation. None of the other occupants in the car were taken into custody.

Quando -- real name Tyquian Terrel Bowman -- was indicted back in June along with 18 others on state gang and drug charges. He's accused of violating the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act over his involvement with the Rollin' 60s street gang.

8:46 AM PT -- A rep for Florida Highway Patrol confirmed there was a crash involving three vehicles -- a Mercedes, Nissan and Toyota -- that occurred in Miami.

While there were no fatalities, police said at least one adult male was transported to a local hospital, but his condition was not disclosed, nor was his identity.

2 Chainz was rushed to a hospital early Saturday morning after he was hit by a car in Miami ... TMZ has learned.

The rapper was driving on I-95 and about to exit when we're told by informed sources a car hit his vehicle. We're told cops suspect the other driver may have been driving under the influence.

It appears 2 Chainz was hit from behind because the damage to the car was on the front left driver's side -- and the damage is extensive, meaning the force of the crash was intense.

2 Chainz just posted this vid of him in an ambulance on his way to the hospital.

We're told he suffered neck injuries and possibly other injuries as well, but that he's in stable condition in the hospital.

He had left a strip club called Booby Trap, a hot Miami strip club, shortly before the crash. He was in Miami for Art Basel.

Harve Pierre, expresidente del sello de Diddy, Bad Boys Records, está criticando la demanda por violación que lo nombra entre los acusados y nos dice que no va a soportar que su nombre sea mancillado.

En una nueva declaración obtenida por TMZ Hip Hop, Pierre dice: "Este es un cuento de ficción. Nunca he participado, presenciado, ni he oído hablar de nada de esto, nunca. Estas repugnantes acusaciones son falsas y un intento desesperado por obtener beneficios económicos".

Y continúa: "Protegeré enérgicamente mi reputación y defenderé mi nombre. Los que me conocen reconocen que estas afirmaciones no son ciertas".

Pierre está acusado de seducir a un menor de edad en Detroit en 2003 para que se subiera a un jet privado y pasara el rato con él y Diddy en una sesión de grabación de Nueva York. Ella afirma que ahí los hombres la agredieron sexualmente en el baño del estudio.

En la demanda también se dice que Pierre se sentó y fumó crack de una lata de Pepsi mientras se producían las agresiones. Los detalles alegados por la denunciante Jane Doe son atroces y viciosos, pero Pierre niega rotundamente que nada de eso sea cierto.

Diddy ha mantenido su inocencia a lo largo de las múltiples demandas que ha enfrentado, incluyendo la que se resolvió rápidamente con su exnovia Cassie en noviembre.

Diddy's former President of Bad Boys Records, Harve Pierre, is slamming the gang rape lawsuit that named him as a defendant ... and he's telling us he won't stand for his name being sullied.

In a new statement obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Pierre says, "This is a tale of fiction. I have never participated in, witnessed, nor heard of anything like this, ever. These disgusting allegations are false and a desperate attempt for financial gain."

He continues, "I will vigorously protect my reputation and defend my name. Those who know me recognize that these claims are not true."

Pierre stands accused of enticing a Detroit minor back in 2003 into hopping on a private jet to hang with him and Diddy for a NYC recording session ... where she claims the men sexually assaulted her in the studio bathroom.

The suit also claims Pierre sat back and smoked crack cocaine from a Pepsi can as the assaults took place. The details alleged by the Jane Doe accuser are heinous and vicious ... but Pierre adamantly denies any of it is true.

Diddy has maintained his innocence throughout the multiple lawsuits he's faced -- including the one he quickly settled with ex-girlfriend Cassie in November.

Shannon Beador is making strides in her sobriety journey ... choosing not to be tempted by any alcohol during a celebratory night out on the town.

Witnesses at the season 2 premiere Wednesday night of Amazon's "Hollywood Houselift with Jeff Lewis" tell TMZ ... the "RHOC" star held onto a clear cup filled with water as she mingled in a crowd of more than 100 guests at the Sunset Tower Hotel.

They also say Shannon seemed to be in great spirits, with no man in tow ... only her girlfriends.

Remember, we broke the story ... Shannon vowed to get some treatment following her DUI bust in Sept.

She was arrested over an alleged drunken car ride ... zipping through a Newport Beach residential area before crashing into the property, which was all caught on surveillance footage.

Kodak Black is behind bars after getting arrested for cocaine possession ... and cops say he tried to hide the evidence right in front of them.

According to the report, cops in Plantation, FL say they spotted a black Bentley SUV blocking a roadway Thursday morning ... which, obviously, they saw as an accident waiting to happen.

Plantation PD says the SUV's window was halfway down, and they found Kodak asleep in the driver's seat ... with a strong odor of cannabis coming from inside the vehicle. They say Kodak admitted there was weed in the SUV, but when the officer noticed a Styrofoam cup that reeked of alcohol ... he told Kodak to exit the vehicle.

The officer says he noticed Kodak turned his back to him, and saw white powder falling on the ground next to Kodak ... as he was standing in front of the patrol vehicle's beaming headlights.

According to the report, the officer then noticed Kodak's mouth full of white powder, and later observed several white rock-like objects on the ground ... which Kodak allegedly said was Percocet.

However, the officer tested the powder on the scene and says it came back positive for cocaine. Kodak was ultimately arrested for possession, tampering with evidence, and violation of his existing probation. On the lesser end, he got a traffic violation for obstructing the road.

His Bentley SUV was towed and cops say the ride looked like it had been in an accident, noting damage to the bumper and door.

Kodak Black está tras las rejas después de ser arrestado por posesión de cocaína... y la policía dice que trató de ocultar la evidencia justo en frente de ellos.

De acuerdo con el informe de la policía de Plantation, Florida, los oficiales vieron un Bentley SUV negro bloqueando una calzada el jueves por la mañana que, obviamente, advirtieron como un potencial accidente.

La policía dice que la ventana del SUV estaba medio abierta. Kodak estaba dormido en el asiento del conductor y se desprendía un fuerte olor a cannabis desde el interior. Dicen que Kodak admitió que había hierba en el carro, pero cuando el oficial notó un vaso de plástico que apestaba a alcohol, le pidió a Kodak que saliera del vehículo.

El oficial dice que notó que Kodak le dio la espalda, momento en que vio un polvillo blanco cayendo al suelo, mientras estaba pie frente a las luces del vehículo policial.

De acuerdo con el informe, el oficial luego notó que la boca de Kodak estaba llena de polvo blanco. Más tarde observó varios objetos parecidos a rocas en el suelo, que Kodak supuestamente dijo que era Percocet.

Sin embargo, el agente analizó el polvo en el área y confirmó que era cocaína. Kodak fue arrestado por posesión, manipulación de pruebas y violación de su libertad condicional. En el extremo menos grave, recibió una infracción de tráfico por obstruir la carretera.

Su todoterreno Bentley fue remolcado y, según la policía, parecía haber sufrido un accidente, con daños en el parachoques y la puerta.
