'Twilight' & Twisted Metal -- Star Witnesses Crash
For some of you, the fact that "Twilight" vamp, Ashley Greene, is in this video is enough to watch -- for the rest, it'll be the sick car crash that occurs across the street when she exited Katsuya that really sucks you in.
The woman who caused the crash was arrested moments after the accident. It appears from the video there were no major injuries. We're working on details.
Story developing ...

Ciara Has a Serious Crank Problem
If you're gonna drop a quarter mil on a Lamborghini -- or rent one for $1,000 a day plus 5 bucks a mile -- at least make sure you know how to drive it first.
Ciara lost a bunch of cool points while attempting to leave LAX when she hopped that sick Lambo in front of a bunch of tongue wagging paparazzi ... and then just sat there.
Sometimes, getting started is the hardest part.

Nick Hogan's car broke down in Beverly Hills yesterday ... before he could put anyone else in a permanent vegetative state.

Orlando Bloom Strikes Again
Orlando Bloom was involved in another car accident in L.A. yesterday -- just a few miles from the infamous wreck that injured two of his passengers nearly two years ago.
This time -- the crash appeared to be more of a fender bender ... and Bloom was spotted exchanging information with another driver just moments after the incident. Neither driver appeared injured.
Bloom was in a nasty accident in October 2007. Although he walked away from the scene, Bloom was never charged for the crash.

No One Can Drum Up the Cash for Weinberg's Ride
The leader of Conan O'Brien's house band just failed to auction off his baby blue, 1957 Chevrolet Corvette convertible -- which is probably a good thing, because WHO THE HELL would want to get rid of it?!?
Max Weinberg -- also of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band fame -- tried to sell his super sweet ass ride at the Hamptons Auto Classic in NY this weekend. Organizers were hoping to get $150,000 for it -- instead they got $0.
Don't feel too bad Max -- of the 68 cars that were up for auction at the event, only 12 sold.

Ay-oh, oh-ay -- Tony Danza hit a Porsche with his car door!

See that little car Chris Brown's getting out of? That's one of the most expensive pieces of automotive machinery on the planet -- an ultra-rare $1.5 million Bugatti Veyron ... and no one is more deserving than that guy (insert sarcasm here).

Brandy Settles Fatal Car Crash with Victim's Kids
We've learned Brandy has just reached a settlement with the kids whose mother died in the singer's 2006 car crash.
Awatef Aboudihaj's two children will receive a total of $600,000 -- $300,000 each -- according to court documents filed in L.A. County Superior Court moments ago.
Aboudihaj died in 2006 after her car was struck by Brandy's Range Rover near the interchange of the 405 and 101 freeways in Los Angeles.
Her husband, Marouane Hdidou -- who has yet to settle with Brandy -- rejected his part of a $1.2 million settlement offer in February.

LiLo's Borrowed Maserati For Sale -- Crash Tested
Dennis DeSantis had to be sick of Lindsay Lohan's assistant (and a Cecconi's valet) playing bumper cars with the ridiculously expensive Maserati he handed over to her -- because he wants the cursed luxury car to be your problem now, not his.
DeSantis just listed the car on eBay for a starting bid of $25,000, but here's the best part: We clicked the CARFAX link to see if the well-publicized fender benders were gonna be listed... and they weren't.
CARFAX does give fair warning on their report, by saying, "Not all accidents or issues are reported to CARFAX" -- just everywhere else on the planet.

Cloris Leachman -- Just Put That Anywhere
Cloris Leachman loves valet parking at Nobu in Malibu. The only problem is Nobu doesn't have valet parking.
Leachman left her car -- with the keys in the ignition -- in the middle of the parking lot and it took our photog going inside the restaurant for someone to come out and move it.
Between this episode and her driving on the pedestrian-only area of an L.A. shopping center back in March, it might be time for Leachman to look into a driver.
