Steve-O, who actually seems to be making a genuine effort to get his life back together, took to his MySpace blog to give details on his road to recovery. Specifically, he's going to "the looney bin," as he puts it, because his "brain is f–ked up." We won't argue there, especially after he lists all of the substances he's taken during his lifetime. It's a sad day when we wish Amy Winehouse would take notes from someone like Steve-O, but that's the thing about celebrities: They keep us on our toes.
His full — and surprisingly readable — blog post, after the jump.
• Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong are really trying to keep their relationship under wraps. [DListed]
• Steve-O is being charged with assault after punching someone at the launch party for Paris Hilton's clothing line. Seriously. [ICYDK]
• Rachel Hunter had the audacity to put on a few pounds. [Yeeeah]
• Ashlee Simpson's baby bump has inspired her to dress like a hippie. [HT]
• Angelina Jolie's doctor just held the most pointless press conference of all time. [PS]
• Starbucks is closing 600 stores due to poor sales. You think this has anything to do with Britney Spears getting her act together? [INO]

Maxim held its Hot 100 party last night in LA, which played host to many horny males hoping to score with desperate women. This event would have been the perfect time to lock everyone in and save the rest of the world from STDs.

If, for some reason, you were surprised by Jackass star Steve-O's recent hospitalization, this video — taken after he was released from his recent stint in jail — explains so much.
Steve-O, one of the Jackass crazies, has reportedly been placed on suicide watch at a mental health center after threatening to take his own life.
He was taken to the emergency room on Sunday afternoon. After drug tests, he was checked into the Thalians Mental Health Center — known for doing crisis intervention — where he was put on a 72-hour hold. That has since been extended to 14 days.
'Steve is stabilized on meds at this point,' the source told Star. 'He was also treated for burns on his skin as if he had been putting cigarettes out on his own body.'
The situation escalated over the weekend when Steve-O, 33, e-mailed suicide notes to several friends, blaming a broken romance. … But he caused a major scene in the hospital, says one insider.
'Steve started flipping out. He told doctors he wanted to hurt himself badly. He wanted to break every bone in his body one by one.'
A family member revealed that Steve-O suffers from bipolar disorder and is currently "in his extreme mania."
Sounds like Steve needs some Jamie Spears in his life.

HE'S STILL ALIVE? "Jackass star Steve-O will be charged with the felony of possession of a controlled substance. … Steve-O was arrested at 5 a.m. this morning at his apartment after a neighbor called in complaining about vandalism at the apartment building."
Of course, Steve-O is well known for a trick in which he swallows a goldfish and then gags himself until he vomits it up, which isn't ethical treatment of an animal, but you can't spell apostate without P-E-T-A.

In the face of FCC regulations that can probably best be described as Orwellian, MTV is proving that they have balls the size of cantaloupes by doing a live broadcast of an event that will definitely be attended by the following: Paris Hilton, Andy Dick, Real World flunkies, someone who will use "party" as a verb on stage, vodka, pills and cocaine. People are all stoked 'cause Mark Burnett's producing it:
[MTV] said Thursday that the Emmy-winning [Mark Burnett] has signed on to executive produce the 2007 MTV Movie Awards, which for the first time ever will air live.
This marks a return to the network for Burnett, who started his career at MTV with "Eco-Challenge" in the mid-1990s.
"I feel like I'm at home with MTV," he said. "I'm a huge MTV fan — I love the Video Music Awards and the Movie Awards," so the opportunity to exec produce the show was one he couldn't pass up, he said.
MTV president Christina Norman said the new partnership between Burnett and MTV came about after the network approached him to see if he would be interested in exec producing the Movie Awards.
"We were thinking about new names, someone with energy, and Mark was a natural," she said. "He's somebody who makes great television that audiences respond to. We were thrilled when he returned our phone call."
We'll see how "thrilled" everyone is once the Jackass dudes show up with snakes, working on a whiskey binge and three hours of sleep. That's when "thrilled" becomes "seething regret." Let's PARTY!

Not content with his legacy of peeing on the red carpet at his own movie, Steve-O made a lovely imprint of his man bits on a slab of wet cement at the premiere of TV: The Movie Thursday night. TMZ has video. Sick. I don't really have words. People like this exist and somewhere, hopefully nowhere public, there is a sad, sad, square of cement showcasing the shape of Steve-O's penis.

In this video, I think you can pinpoint the exact moment Carson Daly finally realized he was ready to just give up on this whole fame thing…and quite possibly his life: sitting on Tom Green's internet talk show, watching Tom f-ing Green guzzle Patron as Steve-O does whippets, listening to Steve-O talk candidly about having sex with Jessica Simpson and transitioning into his lovely story of masturbating in Nicole Richie's bed as she slept. Keep it classy, Hasbeenopalozza.

I'm not sure what is more disgusting: Paris Hilton's wig or Steve-O's inappropriately manhandling that poor woman's breasts.
That snake is probably ashamed to be associated with these shenanigans.
At least Piven knows better than to get near that thing. It's taken him many many moons to have a successful career and legit invites to events like this, he's sure as hell not risking losing that at the hands of some bastard reptile. Plus, he's got on his fancy leather cuff. Not to be messed with.
Always the class act, Steve-O decided to relieve himself on the red carpet of last night's Jackass II premiere. I guess that's one way of getting attention. Want the uncensored photo? Do you really? Well, click on the picture above.
