According to TMZ, the Beverly Hills Police Department began investigating Joel Madden for allegedly assaulting a female photographer. The woman filed a police report, claiming the Good Charlotte singer hit her breast with the heel of his hand.

According to police sources, the woman claimed Madden confronted her as she attempted to take his picture in Beverly Hills, saying that Madden then swung his arm and struck her on the left breast “with the heel of his hand.” The photographer told TMZ that she has a welt to prove it, and had to see a doctor for treatment.

Hours later, TMZ shot video of Madden throwing a forceful, open-handed stiff-arm into the chest of another paparazzo outside of a popular Beverly Hills restaurant, while trying to clear a path for his girlfriend, Nicole Richie.

A rep for Madden refused to comment, but the police department claimed they are taking the incident very seriously.

All-around scumbag Brandon Davis got a very cold reception in New York City last weekend. The Paris Hilton BFF hit up nightclub The Box and made the very poor decision to insult the DJ. The DJ then returned the favor.

When Paris Hilton’s L.A. hanger-on insulted the deejay at The Box on Chrystie St. Saturday night, a spotlight was turned on him and an onstage MC “ripped on him for like 10 minutes,” reports our spywitness. “He didn’t even know who Brandon was — that was the best part.”

Perhaps Brandon Davis should just start staying home. Like, forever.

Liz Hurley’s long-time former boyfriend Hugh Grant was not among the celebrities who showed up for her weekend wedding to Arun Nayer. According to Us Weekly, Grant told Hurley he just wouldn’t feel comfortable attending.

“Liz called him the day before begging him to come, but he insisted it would not feel right,” a source tells Us. “He didn’t want to detract any attention from her big day.”

I can’t say I really blame him for missing it; I can’t fathom attending the wedding of an ex. It just seems weird.

Katherine Heigl recently spoke out against her bosses at Grey’s Anatomy for taking their contract disputes with the actress public. Heigl claimed she was “embarrassed” and felt disrespected by ABC and Touchstone’s decision to make this a public battle.

“I am embarrassed that this has become a public matter and disappointed that Touchstone felt it necessary to divulge private employment information,” Heigl said in the statement. “I had hoped I would be able to deal with this issue confidentially with my bosses. I dropped out of the renegotiation simply because I wanted to treat myself with the respect I was not getting from them.”

Heigl, according to a statement ABC released, is contractually obligated to remain on the highly rated TV show for “several years,” and is “an integral part of Grey’s Anatomy and its success.”

A few of Heigl’s co-star offered support, saying it was a pleasure to work with her.

“She’s a super-talented girl,” Kate Walsh told People on Sunday at the National Association of Black Female Executives in Music and Entertainment Dreamgirls luncheon in Beverly Hills. “Everyone’s just working hard.”

As for contract renegotiations Walsh, whose character Addison Shepard is the subject of a possible Grey’s spinoff, said, ” I literally just worked with Katherine the other night. We just go to work. I don’t know, I don’t really get into all the stuff. Everybody is doing their own thing with negotiations.”

One of Heigl’s other costars, Sara Ramirez, says of the actress who plays Izzie Stevens on the hit ABC show, “She’s lovely….Everybody’s very professional, not just Katherine, but everybody else too.”

Added Ramirez, “At the end of the day, we all have to be grateful for our jobs. We’re working actors, and not only that, we’re on a hit show.”

In other Heigl news, photographers caught the actress shooting a fashion spread on March 3rd. Take a look at the pics, top and bottom.

The man who claimed Sean “Diddy” Combs assaulted him at an Oscar party announced plans to sue the rapper. The man alleged Diddy “unlawfully attacked, assaulted and battered [him].” The best part of the lawsuit? The part where Diddy threatened him by saying, “I’ll smack flames out of your ass!” Yowza!

In a lawsuit, filed March 2 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Gerald Rechnitzer claims he was at Teddy’s nightclub at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood with his girlfriend after the Academy Awards. Rechnitzer says that as he was leaving, he stopped in the restroom. When he came out, he saw that his girlfriend was speaking with Combs, who was surrounded by his private security detail.

The suit claims “Combs, also known as ‘Diddy,’ also known as ‘P. Diddy,’ also known as ‘Puff Daddy,’ also known as ‘Puffy,’ hereinafter Defendant Combs,” suddenly said to the Plaintiff, “What the f**k you looking at dude?’” Combs then allegedly followed up by yelling, “I’ll smack flames out of your ass!”

The suit claims Combs then attacked Rechnitzer. His lawyer tells TMZ Combs punched his client in the jaw, causing him to fly backwards. The suit claims, “At no time was Plaintiff, who is five feet, seven inches tall with a slim build, ever a threat to Defendant….”

The suit alleges “after attacking Plaintiff, Defendant Combs intentionally, willfully and knowingly pushed Plaintiff’s girlfriend and attempted to spit on another female member of Plaintiff’s group.”

The lawsuit seeks unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

The LAPD insisted they are investigating all claims made against Diddy, while Diddy and his peeps deny everything. “These claims are completely false and ridiculous. It is pitiful that Mr. Rechnitzer is stooping so low to prey on Mr. Combs celebrity. Mr. Combs will not stand for such ludicrous accusations.”

I have no idea how these photos surfaced on the internet; they appear to be from Lindsay Lohan’s personal collection, but no one is really admitting how they got them. Regardless, let’s just enjoy Lohan giving her best “Myspace secret fatty” pout.
