I have a little more information concerning FLAVOR FLAV'S domestic violence arrest early Wednesday morning. According to the Las Vegas Police report, the chaos started when Flav's fiancée accused him of cheating. They got into a scuffle during which he knocked her down twice and ripped an earring out of her ear. Her 17-year-old son tried to intervene, and Flav grabbed TWO knives and started chasing him. The kid locked himself in a room, but Flav kicked the door in and threatened to kill him. For the record, Flav denies chasing the boy with knives or making the threat.

JOE JACKSON was being honored at something called the Black Music Awards in Las Vegas recently . . . and the guy who introduced him told an interesting story. He said that two weeks before MICHAEL JACKSON died, Joe FLASHED A GUN at Michael's bodyguards, and threatened to kill them if he ever heard they were giving Michael drugs. So, when Joe took the stage, he confirmed the guy's story. Then he said he carries a gun everywhere he goes . . . and he opened his coat and showed them. He said, quote, "I've been threatened a lot of times and so I need to be safe."

Sources say JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and JESSICA BIEL are throwing themselves a $6.5 MILLION wedding in Italy this weekend. Even though that's probably not much money to them, it's HUGE, even compared to other celebrity weddings. TOM CRUISE and KATIE HOLMES "only" spent $2 million on their wedding. The wedding of MADONNA and GUY RITCHIE was a mere $1.5 million. And BRAD PITT and JENNIFER ANISTON shelled out a measly $1 million on theirs.
