Hands Off, Maria Shriver!
Maria Maria, cell phone cheatah! It appears Maria Shriver broke the law prohibiting driving under the influence of a cell phone -- a law her hubby supported and signed into law last year.
Kaleefornia Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger apparently can't lay down the law in his own home. Maria was photographed twice driving her car while holding her cell phone -- most recently last Sunday in Los Angeles.
Had Shriver been busted, she would have owed the bankrupt state of California $20 plus fees for the first offense ... $50 plus fees for the second. BTW, we need every dime we can get.
We called the Guv's office and Maria's rep yesterday -- radio silence.

'X-Men' Star's Dog -- Breakin' the Law
Famke Jannsen -- who played Dr. Jean Grey in "X-Men" -- is responsible for a New York restaurant breaking the law ... and she can thank her furry little friend for helping her do it.
According to New York City Health Code, it's illegal to bring a dog into a restaurant -- including the patio, if food is being served -- but Famke was snapped sharing an intimate meal with her canine at Il Sole on Sunday anyway.
We spoke to the owner of Il Sole, who told us she wasn't aware Famke was there with her pooch -- or she wouldn't have let it happen.
The only exception to the law is if the dog is specially trained -- such as a seeing eye dog -- but we're pretty sure Famke doesn't need one of those ... despite the giant black sunglasses.

Conrad Murray's Car in LA -- Is The Doc Driving?
TMZ obtained a photo of Dr. Conrad Murray's car -- the same one that was towed away from Michael Jackson's house the day MJ died -- speeding down the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles on Saturday.
We've confirmed it's the same car -- and the agency that shot the photo insists it's the good doc behind the wheel.
Dr. Murray's rep tells us Murray was NOT driving.
When you look closely at the pic and compare it to Murray's most recent appearance, there are similarities and differences. What do you think?

The Return of the Hoff
David Hasselhoff is indestructible.
Despite reports The Hoff was hospitalized during his stay in London after a week-long bender that ended with him allegedly punching out a doctor, he was seen at Heathrow Airport this morning looking as fresh as the day he was born.
When we got him arriving later at LAX, we tried to ask all about his trip, but all we got was that devilish grin and a sly, "It's allllllll good."
How does he do it?
