Paparazzi Video

When you're as ripped as Hugh Jackman ... it takes a lot to rattle you -- but the star admits his run-in with a deranged pubic hair-throwing fan was pretty terrifying.

Jackman opened up to paps yesterday about the scary incident -- Saturday in NYC a woman walked up to him in his gym and unloaded a razor filled with her own short and curlies ... all while declaring her love for him.

So, you'd think Hugh -- who, by the way, looks HUGE in this clip -- would be pretty pissed off about the whole thing, right?

Moment of truth for Lindsay Lohan yesterday ... when she was pulled aside at JFK airport for a very thorough, very hands-on security pat-down!

LiLo was attempting to fly from NY back to L.A. ... when the TSA decided to make extra double sure the actress wasn't smuggling any drugs ... or bombs ... or stolen jewelry back to the West Coast.

So ... did Lindsay pass the screening? Or was she BUSTED, thrown to the ground and arrested on the spot???

Kim Kardashian was faced with a choice the likes of which haven't been faced since Sophie -- papas or paparazzi.

Kim joined her sisters for what was supposed to be a delicious lunch at Casa Vega in the Valley Thursday ... but the pesky pappers were blocking her entrance and wouldn't follow instructions to "MAKE A HOLE!"

As the smells of the fried burritos and chimichangas wafted to her waiting SUV, Kim made the hardest decision since agreeing to let Ray J really have his way ... She left.

Liev Schreiber ended up playing mediator between a photog and a waiter who had originally come to HIS defense ... after the waiter repeatedly threatened to EAT THE PHOTOGRAPHER!!!

It all went down at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica over the weekend. As Schreiber was hounded by photogs (none of which work for TMZ), a waiter came to his aid and tried to shoo them away. But things got physical with one of the photogs (a female, no less) and she swung the camera at the waiter in defense.

That's when the waiter went all Jeffrey Dahmer, screaming, "You touch me with that and I will EAT YOU ALIVE! You understand? I will eat you! EAT YOU!" Clearly the restaurant does not feed its staff.

Before things could really get out of hand, Liev came over to play peacemaker and calm things down ... and in the end no one got eaten.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver reunited for an Easter brunch at a swanky hotel in Santa Monica yesterday ... but unlike Jesus, their marriage wasn't resurrected that day.

The former couple met up at Shutters On the Beach in their finest Easter outfits for what appeared to be a pretty civil get-together.

But sources close to the couple tell us ... despite the cordial front, Maria feels the relationship is irretrievably broken and the divorce is still full speed ahead.

Sean Penn's son handled a paparazzo in Beverly Hills today much the way his father used to ... violently ramming the photog -- and also calling the guy a "f***ot" and a "n***er."

19-year-old Hopper Penn was following his dad into a medical building when he got into the altercation with an African-American photographer (not TMZ's).

The nuclear exchange was all caught on tape ... Hopper gets up in the photog's face, pushing him, then says, "F*** you ... you're a f***ing f***ot ... shut up you f***ing n***er."

Cops happened to be nearby at the time and heard the commotion. Law enforcement sources tell us, officers asked what happened ... but the photog said it was just a verbal argument, and he didn't want to press charges.

Hopper tells TMZ his side of the story is ... “I was accosted by paparazzi and made to feel like an animal - threatened and under attack, but that does not condone my own actions."

He adds, "I deeply regret my choice of words.”

FYI, Sean was 100% calm and cool in today's video.

It's been nearly four years since Sean's infamous kicking altercation with a photog. He was sentenced to three years probation stemming from that incident.

We may be reading too much into this ... but Donald Trump does not seem to like Anthony Weiner much ... because he's calling the ex-hibitionist ex-congressman a "sick pervert" and a "whack job."

Trump lobbed his latest grenade at the Conservative Political Action Conference 2013. Donald -- always the realist -- seems to think Weiner's rumored run for NYC mayor may not be affected by the lurid pics on Twitter.

Gerard Butler gave his fans major "300" wood last night by putting on a Spartan soldier's helmet and belting out the line that made him famous.

Gerard was signing autographs outside "Jimmy Kimmel Live" when someone handed him a replica helmet ... much like the one he wore in the 2006 hit film.

Gerard not only signed the memorabilia, but put it on his head ... and screamed ... "This is Sparta!"

Unfortunately, he wasn't shirtless or ridiculously ripped like he was in the movie .. but you gotta see how the fans react.

Justin Bieber's feeling better -- in fact, he's feeling good enough to FIGHT ... 'cause he just went after a photog in London ... and screamed, "I'LL F**KING BEAT THE F**K OUT OF YOU."

Bieber -- flanked by bodyguards -- was leaving a Central London hotel moments ago ... and in the mad scramble to his SUV, he made contact with a waiting photog.

The photog -- NOT a TMZ photog -- was clearly upset by the physical contact and immediately claimed he was assaulted. He then began to cuss out Bieber, who was already inside the waiting SUV.

But Bieber clearly heard the photog's insults ("f**k off back to America", "f**king little moron") ... 'cause the singer opened his SUV door and sprung out of the car ... trying to attack the photog.

While Bieber's bodyguard held him back, the singer screamed ... "What the f**k you say?"

The photog shot back -- "You heard what I said ... you heard what I f**king said, mate."

Bieber replied, "I'll f**king beat the f**k out of you."

Justin tried to swing at the photog, but his bouncers kept the singer at bay ... and eventually pushed him back inside the SUV.

The car left the scene without further incident.

One minute she's a football player ... the next, Paris Jackson is pom-pomming her face off on her prep school's cheerleading squad ... another sign MJ's daughter is as free a spirit as he was.

Paris -- sporting a short new 'do -- hit the hardwood and rooted on the Buckley School basketball team in L.A. yesterday ... while hamming it up for the cameras.

It's just the latest predictably unpredictable move for the 14-year-old ... who was just playing for the school's flag football team in 2011 -- she's kinda like "Icebox" from "Little Giants" ... only WAYY more bad ass.

Besides the sports, Jackson is also an aspiring actress ... political activist ... model ... and Bieber-enthusiast.

Funny, Michael spent so much time trying to keep his children out of the spotlight ... but now, it seems she's reveling in it.

Adrienne Maloof just fired ANOTHER parting shot at the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" ... saying she can finally "sleep well at night" now that she's left the show.

As we first reported, Maloof quit "RHOBH" just a few weeks ago ... telling producers the intrusiveness was ruining her family and her personal life. We're told things between Adrienne and Bravo have turned "ugly" recently after she refused to appear on the reunion show ... and now it's clear, she's still pissed.

Just a few hours ago in Bev Hills, Maloof told a photog how excited she is to be away from all the drama ... and called her departure "a big relief."

OUR VIRGIN EARS ... Martha Stewart, the purest most wholesome TV personality in the universe, just dropped an S-BOMB on her way out of court ... and the shocking expletive was all caught on tape.

Stewart was exiting New York Supreme Court today when someone accidentally stepped on her foot. Stewart yells, "Oh sh*t!" and narrowly avoids falling onto her face.

WE CAN'T BELIEVE IT EITHER!!! You gotta watch the clip.

FYI -- Stewart was in court to testify in the legal dogfight between Macy's and JCPenney over an exclusive deal to sell Martha Stewart products. Translation: Martha's still filthy rich.

"Dancing With the Stars" contender Victor Ortiz is already a champion in the boxing ring -- and tells TMZ he already thinks he's got the moves to be a ballroom champ too.

Victor was taking a little breather from his hardcore "DWTS" training -- when we asked how the season 16 rehearsals were shaping up for a pro-athlete like himself.

That's when the gloves came off ... Victor said he's training harder than ever with partner Lindsay Arnold (a new 'pro' this season) to snatch the coveted mirror ball trophy, and boldly added ... "I'm definitely winning it!"

Octomom's friends say she's hit rock bottom again, because she's exhibiting the exact same bizarre, dangerous conduct that was caught on tape and just obtained by TMZ.

We broke the story ... Octo is getting high again after obtaining a medical marijuana card. Her friends say she's playing with fire because she's had drug addiction problems that could endanger her 14 kids.

Octomom's friends say she's acting like she did last year, when she was videotaped inside a hotel room with her former manager. She's off the rails, wearing a onesie as she cackles hysterically, cradling a drink. We're told the video was shot in the throes of her substance abuse problems ... before she went to rehab.

Stone Temple Pilots LIED about firing singer Scott Weiland as a publicity stunt ... in order to hype an upcoming concert tour ... so says Weiland, who insists the band is still 100% together.

Weiland said, "STP is not broken up. It's a whole thing to try to boost ticket sales."

But the way Weiland explains it sounds like he and the rest of STP don't really communicate ... and they used the Weiland "firing" to boost ticket sales for a tour they were organizing WITHOUT him.

Which begs the question ... why is Scott so sure he's not out of the band? He says it's because there's a clause in the band's contract that forbids the members from using the name STP on another group. In other words, if Scott's out ... STP ceases to exist.

Former child actor Ricky Schroder -- famous for his role on the 80s sitcom "Silver Spoons" -- assaulted an LAX airport worker in the middle of a busy terminal this week ... all because she wouldn't let him board with 3 bags ... at least that's what the woman told police.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... airport police were called to the scene early Monday morning following the alleged altercation.

The woman's story ... she was checking boarding passes when Ricky attempted to go through security with three bags ... when the limit is two.

The airport worker says Ricky then slapped her hand when she reached for his boarding pass.

When cops arrived, they interviewed both parties. No arrests were made and no report was taken.

Ricky's lawyer, Marty Singer, tells TMZ ... the woman was rude and confrontational when she told him he had too many bags. Singer says the woman hit Ricky's hand and his phone went flying. Ricky lunged to grab his phone and she screamed, "Assault!"

Singer says there are independent witnesses to corroborate Ricky's story and if Ricky did what she said he would have been arrested.

TMZ obtained video of the scene moments after the confrontation ... in which the worker tells her side of the story.
