Whitney Houston's Daughter In A Frightening Car Crash
(TMZ) Whitney Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina has miraculously emerged unscathed after wrecking her Chevy Camaro in a frightening car crash on Wednesday ... TMZ has learned.

The accident just went down in Alpharetta, Georgia -- law enforcement tells us a passer-by noticed Bobbi's car all smashed up in an embankment and called 911.

When emergency personnel arrived at the scene, Bobbi Kristina was standing next to her vehicle and appeared to be uninjured.

Cops conducted an official accident investigation -- and believe Bobbi Kristina simply lost control of her car while making a left turn out of her apartment complex ... and drove over a curb and down an embankment, striking several small trees along the way.

Eventually, the car came to a stop on a local park trail.

After the investigation, cops issued BK a traffic citation for "failure to maintain lane."

Cops say ... it doesn't appear drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash. See photos here.

Kelly Clarkson Reacts To Fake UK Press Quotes

"I said in the interview, when asked about fame, that I have no desire to be as famous as Britney or Madonna," Kelly clarified on Twitter. "I said that kind of fame was too much for any person and that I have experienced a portion of what they deal with and that I didn't handle that well and I'm happy where I'm at in my career." more on this story

Gabriel Aubry Denies Secret Marriage To Halle Berry
(TMZ) Halle Berry is NOT Gabriel Aubry's ex-wife, despite multiple references made in legal docs filed by Gabriel's attorneys ... TMZ has learned.

Gabriel's lawyers filed a petition for a restraining order against Olivier Martinez. In the docs, there are multiple references to Halle as Gabriel's "ex-wife."

Sources involved in Gabriel's case tell TMZ ... it was simply an error -- Gabriel and Halle were never married.

One other loose end on the fight front. TMZ reported earlier yesterday it is highly unlikely Gabriel will be prosecuted for battery. Aside from law enforcement's view that it was "mutual combat" between Gabriel and Olivier, another thing in Gabriel's favor is that the moment police arrived, Gabriel repeatedly asked cops to check the video. The upshot -- he had nothing to hide and wanted them to see how the fight started.

As we first reported, the cameras don't show the fight, because they were repositioned to shoot the perimeter of the property to better spot intruders. more on this story

Courtney Bingham Discusses Nikki Sixx Engagement
(Extra) Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx popped the question to his girlfriend of two years, model Courtney Bingham, over the weekend in St. Barth's -- and she said yes.

"Extra" helped Courtney celebrate their engagement by hosting a live chat with her on ExtraTV.com. In her first sit down interview since the news broke, she talked with actress and TV host Nicole Dabaeu about the secret proposal.

Courtney said the evening that Nikki proposed was "amazing" and that she really wasn't expecting anything when she and Nikki went on vacation.

On the night of the proposal, she said the rocker had chosen the restaurant, but on the way out of the hotel, Nikki said, "Let's get a drink at the hotel restaurant." Suddenly, they passed the bar, and a waitress escorted Courtney and Nikki to the beach. There was a path, lit by little candles, which took them to a table under a silk canopy. Courtney thought the vacation could not get any better with this romantic dinner.

After the couple finished eating, Courtney said it was a bit odd that the waitress said she would just be "over there" and never asked if they wanted coffee or anything. Then Nikki suggested they'd take pictures. Courtney pulled out her phone and when she turned around, Nikki was on one knee.

Courtney started crying, exclaiming, "YES, YES, YES!" even though she hadn't even seen the ring yet. Nikki presented the six-carat diamond to his fiancee and Courtney's first words were "Oh sh*t!" Courtney called it the proposal of her dreams.

One fan asked Courtney if she and Nikki were thinking of having children and Courtney said, "We are planning on at least, one. I am hoping it will be twins but not any time soon." Check out the full interview here.

Jason Patric In A Bizarre Custody War
(TMZ) Actor Jason Patric is embroiled in a bizarre custody war, in which he donated sperm so his ex-girlfriend could have a baby, but according to the deal she could never tell anyone or ask for financial support.

TMZ has learned the facts surfaced in a court hearing earlier this month -- Patric was with on-again-off-again girlfriend Danielle Schreiber for more than a decade. They broke up in early 2009, and he allegedly told her that he didn't have any money to give her but he would give her the next best thing -- his sperm, so she could have a baby.

We're told Jason made it clear ... he would only provide his sperm if she didn't breathe a word to anyone and never asked him for child support. She agreed.

Baby Gus was born in December, 2009. In 2011, Jason and Danielle got back together but it didn't last long. They broke up in May, 2012.

Apparently, while they were together, Jason, who never paid Danielle child support, took a liking to Gus, because he filed legal docs in family court asking a judge to award him 50/50 custody.

But there's a little known law which says if an unmarried man artificially inseminates an unmarried woman with the help of a physician, he's NOT legally the dad and has no custody rights.

The judge has given Danielle temporary sole legal and physical custody of the boy. Jason has visitation rights. We're told Danielle is fine VOLUNTARILY giving Jason the right to spend time with the boy, but objects to a judge ordering visitation -- she doesn't believe Jason has or should have any LEGAL rights to custody or visitation. more on this story
