Camille Grammer wants ex-BF Dimitri Charalambopoulos arrested and prosecuted for allegedly beating her to a pulp ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us ... Camille filed a formal complaint with the Houston PD ... after Dimitri allegedly grabbed her, beat her, pulled her hair out and cut off her air supply during an argument that turned violent on October 16. Camille had just gotten out of the hospital after undergoing cancer surgery.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... Houston cops are investigating and interviewing witnesses. It's unclear why Dimitri wasn't arrested the day of the incident, but we're told he had left the hotel by the time cops arrived and he's now in Dallas.

As TMZ first reported ... Camille got a restraining order Tuesday to keep Dimitri away, but she wants more ... she wants him prosecuted for domestic violence.

Camille Grammer just got a restraining order against her boyfriend, claiming he brutalized and terrorized her in a hotel room, leaving her bruised and battered.

In her declaration, filed by attorney Larry Stein and obtained by TMZ, Camille claims on October 16, she was in a Houston hotel room with boyfriend Dimitri Charalambopoulos ... recovering from cancer surgery just days before.

At 1:30 AM Camille says a woman started texting Dimitri and ended up calling him and screaming.

The phone call triggered an argument between Camille and Dimitri. She claims at that point he grabbed her by the hair, twisted it around his hand and repeatedly pulled her head into the bed and its headboard. She says he pulled out clumps of her hair in the process.

Camille says she tried to call for help, but Dimitri smashed her iPhone.

But it didn't end there. Camille claims Dimitri "squeezed my nose between his finger and pushed upward forcefully, covering my mouth in an attempt to silence me to prevent me from breathing."

Camille also claims Dimitri wrestled her on the hotel bed, "repeatedly slamming my head and face into the furniture and completely immobilizing me." She claims he said, "I wanna smash your head in. I'll give you a reason to call the cops."

Camille says the abuse went on for 40 minutes to an hour as she feared for her life and begged him to stop.

She says as Dimitri was about to leave he said he would knock her out if she moved from the bed.

Camille, who claims she felt Dimitri would kill her, ended up bruised and battered.

A judge just granted a temporary restraining order ... ordering Dimitri to stay 100 yards from Camille and her 2 kids.

"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards won't let 4 children stop her from slutting it up on Halloween -- in fact, the 44-year-old tells TMZ, she's already purchased her risque costume for 2013.

Richards was at an event in L.A. Wednesday night when we asked how sexy a mom should dress on All Hallows' Eve -- and Richards said she had ALREADY purchased her costume from Trashy Lingerie in L.A., a store famous for its slutty duds.

But she says she did restrain herself a LITTLE for the sake of her kids, adding, "I ended up with [a more conservative costume] because I am a mom."

Of course, "conservative" at Trashy Lingerie just means your ass isn't showing ... completely.

If rap sheets were like IMDb ... the son of an alum on "Real Housewives of Orange County" would be the hottest thing in Hollywood ... because he's just added another credit -- charged with felony grand theft auto.

Josh Waring -- the son of Lauri Waring -- is no stranger to crime. He's been busted at least 5 times. As for the most recent ... we found out he was popped on Oct. 10 for allegedly stealing a 2005 Cadillac. He was charged today. He's also charged with possession of an opium pipe and needles. And he's charged with attempting to destroy evidence -- the needles.

Josh's wife was also arrested for possession of a billy club -- it's illegal in California.

Former "Real Housewives of OC" star Lynne Curtin is broke ... broke ass broke ... claiming she only has $100 to her name, this according to legal docs obtained by TMZ.

Curtin just filed new court papers in her divorce from Frank Curtin -- and it seems like she's making a serious play for spousal support, 'cause she claims to have virtually no money left.

According to the docs, Curtin says she only has $100 in total assets. She also claims she only earns $250 dollars a month -- or $3,000 a year -- as the owner of her own jewelry business.

Just for comparison, the poverty level for a single person in the U.S. is $11,490 a year.

As for her expenses, Curtin claims she lives a pretty meager life these days, dropping only $515 per month. Here's how the monthly spending breaks down:

$150 - eating out
$115 - telephone and email
$ 50 - laundry
$100 - clothes
$100 - entertainment

We broke the story, Curtin -- who appeared in seasons 4 & 5 of the show -- filed for divorce from her husband Frank back in December.

In her court papers, Lynne says she had to get a loan just to pay her lawyer. Also ...there's the little matter of $30,000 in unpaid taxes from 2009 ... she says that's Frank's problem, too.

It's no clothes-tearing cat fight ... but it was still pretty nasty ... and now, former "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak has prevailed -- beating the crap out of Kandi Burruss in Kandi's own lawsuit.

As we reported, Burruss -- repped by fellow RHOA star Phaedra Parks -- sued Zolciak over their 2009 song "Tardy for the Party," claiming Kim swindled her out of a huge chunk of the song's profits (... though we can't imagine they amounted to much).

Zolciak responded with her own legal docs, accusing Kandi of using the lawsuit as a publicity stunt to promote her now-canceled show "The Kandi Factory." (Clearly it worked.)

But NOW THE WAR IS OVER ... a judge has officially ruled in Kim's favor (pretty much on a technicality involving federal court jurisdiction and blah blah whatever).

But who cares. Because now no one has to hear the phrase "Tardy for the Party" ever again.

Okay one last time.

One of the nastiest feuds in Beverly Hills appeared to be SQUASHED last night ... when warring "Housewives" Adrienne Maloof and Lisa Vanderpump kissed and shared a hug on a Hollywood red carpet last night.

But TMZ has learned ... the war is FAR from over.

You may know Ade and Lisa have hated each other's guts for a while -- each accusing the other of selling stories to the tabloids ... Ade accused Lisa of badmouthing her shoe line ... and Ade was pissed that Lisa didn't hold Lisa's daughter's bachelorette party at the Maloof family casino in Vegas. We could go on, but you get the gist.

Anyway, the two crossed paths last night on the red carpet of a party for L.A. Fashion Magazine (Lisa is on the cover this month) ... and acted downright FRIENDLY.

In fact, it even appeared Ade was there to support Lisa -- which would be a HUGE step toward peace, but it just ain't the case.

Turns out that kiss was just as fake as the lips that bestowed it ... 'cause right before the event, Adrienne told TMZ she could care less about Lisa and was only there to support her own boyfriend, who was on the cover of the mag last month.

Lisa Vanderpump's rich husband Ken Todd says he has a concrete reason to file a fat lawsuit ... claiming a construction worker attacked him with a cement chipper, then tried to extort him for $50,000.

Todd filed the lawsuit against Kevin and David Cazaref, claiming the two brothers had been hired to do construction work on Ken's P.U.M.P. Lounge in West Hollywood.

Ken says he observed Kevin (a man twice his size) using a concrete chipper unsafely last week, so Ken confronted him and attempted to show Kevin how to use it properly.

Kevin must have taken offense ... because Ken says the worker then "became enraged, grabbed and violently hurled the heavy concrete chipper" at him ... hurting his hip, leg, and knee.

According to Ken's lawsuit, Kevin's brother David approached threateningly in Kevin's defense -- at which point nearby police officers became involved.

No arrests were made, but Ken says the brothers later contacted him in an attempt to shake him down for $50,000 in exchange for keeping quiet about the altercation.

Bethenny Frankel and soon-to-be ex-hubby Jason Hoppy can't pull a Watergate on each other anymore, because a judge has now prohibited them from secretly recording each other ... and for good reason.

Sources connected to the former couple tell TMZ ... since their separation, Jason has secretly recorded Bethenny on both video and audio. What's more ... we're told he also recorded their nanny and the Skinny Girl staff, working out of Bethenny's home-office. And, we're told Jason has gotten into the emails of Bethenny and her staff.

Our sources say the recordings don't go both ways -- Bethenny has never recorded Jason.

TMZ has learned ... the judge has ordered both Jason and Bethenny NOT use tape recorders, cell phones or computers to record each other. They're also prohibited from recording the nanny. And they're prohibited from intercepting emails.

We've learned the judge ordered Bethenny and Jason to ante up any video or audio recordings by October 15. That should be interesting.

Anyone miss Nixon?

'Real Housewives' creator Andy Cohen wants to make it absolutely clear -- he is NOT engaged to ex-hockey star Sean Avery, and he's just a really good friend.

A really good friend ... with whom he takes lots of shirtless pics, and would love to bang.

'Real Housewives' star Adrienne Maloof goes through men faster than chili fries -- because right after we saw her spat with one much younger bf, she found herself a brand new ... much younger bf!

Cougars gotta eat.

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Brandon DeShezar says he was beat to a pulp by the vicious hands of co-star Apollo Nida this week, and he's lawyering up for a big lawsuit.

DeShazer had a stiff upper lip as he tooled through LAX last night and talked to our photog.

As we previously reported ... witnesses say Apollo attacked DeShazer because he felt like BDS and Kenya Moore had screwed his wife Phaedra Parks over on some workout video deal.

Huge brawl on "Real Housewives of Atlanta" ... sources tell TMZ.

"Real Housewives of Atlanta" cast member Brandon DeShazer -- Kenya Moore's assistant -- was seriously roughed up last night by Phaedra Parks' husband Apollo Nida ... all over beef stemming from some dumb workout video, a witness tells TMZ.

According to witnesses, Apollo flew into a rage and "violently attacked" Brandon at a party that was being filmed for the upcoming season ... and it was all caught on tape.

The witnesses say Apollo -- who once served 5 years in prison for racketeering -- had to be restrained by 7 male crew members before finally retreating.

We're told Apollo was pissed because Brandon and Kenya had allegedly agreed to produce a workout video starring Phaedra, but instead produced their own, cutting Phaedra out. We're told Apollo felt slighted, and blamed Brandon for stabbing Phaedra in the back.

Apollo has a different story, telling TMZ, there was a fight on the set, he tried to break it up and got attacked by Brandon. Apollo says at that point he defended himself and everything got out of control.

Dramatic.

Calls to Bravo weren't returned.

Five stinkin' dollars ... that's what started a massive argument this weekend between several police officers and "Real Housewives" stars Teresa and Joe Giudice -- all because the couple didn't want to pay a tiny beach entrance fee, sources tell TMZ.

Here's the back story -- the Giudices were kickin' it on Ship Bottom beach on Long Beach Island, NJ Saturday afternoon (with roughly 30 friends and family members) when they were approached by a teen girl beach worker.

Sources on the scene tell us, the employee asked to see the Giudices' "beach badges" -- basically $5 admission tickets required to chill in the sand -- and the family flipped, refusing to "pay to go to the beach."

We're told one family member even yelled at the girl, saying, "F*** you, f*** this we are not paying for the f***ing beach. This is a joke!" Remember: 5 dollars per person.

We're told the girl started crying, and when beach PD responded ... the Giudices continued to kick up a stink, but eventually coughed up chump change.

Adrienne Maloof is surviving divorce in a big way -- 5 months after hers she's dropped $12.75 million on a GINORMOUS 14,000-square-foot mansion in Beverly Hills ... TMZ has learned.

Adrienne's been renting a 10,000-square-foot casa ever since breaking things off with Paul Nassif -- but apparently that wasn't nearly enough house for her.

Instead, our real estate sources say Adrienne swooped up a bigger, better place last month in the same swanky gated BH community ... which means Charlie Sheen's still her neighbor.

Money can't buy everything -- but it did get Adrienne 14,025 square feet, 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, a pool and epic views from her balcony.

Gloria Gaynor would be proud.

Adrienne Maloof just won a solid victory against her ex-hubby Paul Nassif ... after he essentially folded in family court.

Sources tell TMZ ... Adrienne and Paul were fighting bitterly over where their 11-year-old son Gavin should attend school. Adrienne wanted the boy, who has some learning and attention issues, to continue in regular school where he would get special attention. Paul wanted to send Gavin to a school which specialized in kids with serious disabilities.

We've learned today in court ... Paul DROPPED his claim and Gavin will continue in the school he's in ... which is what Adrienne wanted. Paul also dropped his request that she pay his attorney's fees.

And this is interesting ... we're told Paul also dropped his lawsuit against the former couple's chef, Bernie Guzman, who had plastered photos of a bruised Adrienne on his Facebook page, claiming Paul inflicted the injuries. Paul sued Bernie for making the claims, but today dropped the case.
