Bruce Jenner involved in car crash, one person dead

Former Olympic athlete and TV celebrity Bruce Jenner (aka the stepfather of the Kardashians) was involved in a massive car crash in California. According to celebrity website TMZ, the accident happened on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu around noon Saturday. Four vehicles were damaged when Jenner reportedly rear ended a white Lexus LS sedan with his Cadillac Escalade SUV. The Lexus was coming to a stop at a red light when Jenner’s car hit the sedan. The Lexus then hit a Prius and ran into oncoming traffic, and crashed into a Hummer. The driver of the Lexus died and seven others were injured.

Jenner was towing a all-terrain vehicle at that time and was reportedly being chased by as many as five paparazzi. Jenner told the police that he had not been drinking and passed a field sobriety test. He was taken into custody.

'Biggest Loser' Contestants Throw Weight Around, Threaten to Quit Show

There's a big, fat problem on the set of "Biggest Loser" -- TMZ has learned nearly all of the remaining contestants have walked off the show and are threatening to quit after learning about a secret "twist" that could seriously affect their shot at the $250,000 grand prize.

Multiple sources connected with the show tell us ... the mutiny took place this week ... when the losers got word that producers were considering bringing back previous contestants to compete for the grand prize.

We're told most of the current contestants were pissed -- feeling it was unfair that prior losers would get a second bite at the apple ... so they banded together and decided to protest by walking off the show in the middle of shooting an episode.

Sources tell us ... show honchos have shut down production for at least a week while they figure out how to handle the situation.

We've reached out to "Loser" and NBC for comment -- so far, no response.

Demi Moore 911 Tape Whip-It References Redacted

The L.A. City Attorney recommended that all references to whip-its be redacted from the Demi Moore 911 tape -- and the recommendation was followed ... TMZ has learned.

Sources tell us ... the Deputy City Attorney assigned to the case heard references to whip-its and felt it would be an invasion of privacy if that information was released to the public -- so it was cut out of the tape, along with specific references to other drugs.

TMZ broke the story ... paramedics on scene were told Demi had used whip-its to inhale nitrous oxide just before she lapsed into semi-consciousness and exhibited seizure-like symptoms.

Now we know the person who called 911 also told the dispatcher about the whip-its.
