A whole lotta drama went down here in Hollywood, CA last night in the wee hours of the morning at Guys & Dolls nightclub. An altercation that began inside the club, where allegedly Joe Francis (of Girls Gone Wild fame) physically assaulted Playboy model and Brody Jenner girlfriend Jayde Nicole, and then spilled out into the street where Brody Jenner was apparently tasered and Francis escaped. TMZ was there to chronicle all the drama from Jayde and Brody themselves. Here are a few screencaps of instant video interviews with Jayde and Brody about what went down, a photo of Joe Francis (newly released from prison) fleeing the scene and the latest deets from TMZ about the whole matter:
Brody Jenner was in an epic fight outside of Guys and Dolls this morning, with Girls Gone Wild honcho Joe Francis. Jenner just spoke with us by phone. According to Jenner, he and his girlfriend, Jayde Nicole, were at the club celebrating his birthday, when Jayde saw Francis hitting on an ex-girlfriend of his (Francis’), Jenner says “unrelentingly.” Jayde felt he was harassing the woman — whom Jayde and Brody know — and she threw a drink on Francis. Jenner says Francis then pulled Jayde’s hair, punched her in the face and threw her to the ground and began kicking her. Security broke it up and Francis got dragged away — Brody followed. Jenner says he started yelling at Francis and both men were ejected from the club.
Outside the club, Jenner says he tried to get back in to see Jayde but security wouldn’t let him. Jenner then saw Joe, punched him in the face, and then someone tased him and he fell to the ground. Francis left the scene.
The cops — who say a call came in at 2:46 AM for battery — came but no one was arrested. Jayde tells TMZ she will press charges against Francis. Jayde has a black and blue cheek, her face is swollen, she has a bruised left rib and her lower abdomen is sore. Some of her hair also got pulled out.
Lord, what a bunch of bullshizz. TMZ has video of Jayde explaining what happened and, at first, she claimed she merely “bumped” into Francis (to get him to stop harassing her friend) and then he started wailing on her … then her story became she threw a drink on him. Whatever happened, it’s clear that some sort of physicality went down between the two. I imagine that this sort of drama is not the kind that an ex-con would like to attract … I suspect Francis fled the scene so as not to be arrested on the spot. I wouldn’t be surprised if the cops paid him a visit later on today.
After all of this went down, Brody Jenner updated his official Twitter profile with the following tweets:
Joe Francis needs to be in jail!!!
How can you call yourself a man when you beat up a girl?? Joe Francis is a piece of shit
Joe Francis beat up my lady this morning for no reason! Pulled her to the ground, punched & kicked her..what does that say about him?
Depending on whether or not anyone presses charges, we may be hearing more about this incident soon. And I believe we still need to find out who tasered Brody outside the club. Meh, just a typical Thursday night in Hollywood. Sounds fun, right?

All these people who say that they would have done something different are all full of shit, cause I know that if you were put into that situation it would be different. THey both effed up and they both got what they deserved. PLus we dont know if she threw just her drink at him or the whole glass at him. I mean come one people she threated to hit Audrina on top of the head with a bottle now tell me is that right…so the bitch deserved it
@ Gaby – Why not just be an adult and walk away? It’s not like he was defending himself. He was acting like a douche. He had to save face and show his entourage that no one gets away with disrespecting him (or some stupid shit). So rather than be a man, and walk away, he acted like an immature little shit and started a fist fight with someone who he knew he could dominate. That’s what a *real* man would do, after all.
Being a skank or a porn star doesn’t mean someone automatically deserves to be treated like a punching bag. (Especially by someone who is equally skanky.)
someone punch her on the other side of her face to even it out…both parties brought this upon themselves
I mean she knew who she was dealing with… he has a rap shit of disrespecting woman longer than a 10 ft snake but she still did it. She too should have been the adult and instead of acting like she did she should have told her BOYFRIEND to do something
@Salena – well put
@CB why didn’t she be a *real* woman and not resort to physical assault first. if we are going to hold men to a certain standard of behavior, why shouldn’t we as women hold ourselves to that same standard. was he wrong him beating her, of course, but she was equally wrong in throwing that drink at him. and had she not thrown the drink, he wouldn’t have hit her.
@ Pixie well said
Violence is never okay. Even if you got doused by alcohol, it is not cool to resort to violence. Cant believe people here are saying she deserved it. .
-meream
The cops should arrest and taser all three of them for being dumb asses that can’t control themselves. I’m not saying it’s right, but maybe she will to keep her actions under control in the future. It sounds as if Jayde started the whole mess, and sometimes it takes a little more than words to get the point across to some people. She probably didn’t deserve a major beatdown, but she sure as hell isn’t innocent .
It’s a shame it takes shit like this for douchebags to get some attention.. all said and done, everyone of them will prosper from this publicity.
DON’T TASE ME BRO’……hahaha. Joe Francis is an epic DOUCHE!
When will people stop thinking in terms of “an eye for an eye”? If Francis was to sit in court and say, I beat her excessively because she threw a drink at me that CLEARLY would not stand.
–
And Gaby, NO I would not PUNCH her in the FACE, THROW her to the ground by her hair, and repeatedly KICK her in the ribs. NO. And just because you seem to think that you would take those actions does not make it any more right. “Well you would do it too” is NOT an acceptable rationale for attacking someone so excessively.
–
I’m completely shocked that people are saying that she had it coming because she was a porn star and a ‘slut’? Since when does someone’s line of work affect whether or not it’s okay to hit them? Let’s say someone brutally attacked a professional boxer after he threw a drink at them. Is it okay because he’s used to being hit for a living?
–
I don’t know why I’m bothering with this, I just legitimately expected more out of people. A lot of you really need to brush up on your ideas of human dignity and retribution.
–
I’ll say it again though, Joe Francis is a vile and pathetic excuse for a man.
yes he is a vile, disgusting, and a poor excuse for a human being. and instead of beating her he should have thrown a drink back at her. but why is it wrong and some how condoning violence to women to say she shouldn’t have thrown the drink first. it is not condoning violence against women by saying women just because of their gender can do anything they want to a man. just as a man cannot to anything he wants to other people, a woman cannot do anything she wants to another person.
Lana, Monic, Gaby – really? It just seem to be a very young view point with out much experience in self-control. Just because someone starts something doesn’t mean you have to respond in violence. Her jester, while rude, she didn’t lay a hand on him. This is not apples to apples comparisson in terms of response. You don’t have to have an ounce of respect for that girl to make that determination. Joe has been in the trouble with the law before. A more suited resposne would been to the bounces and have them remove her so she can feel stupid for getting kicked out of a hot spot night club on the night of her boyfriend’s birthday. Voilence was over-kill – seriously.
I never claimed that it was wrong to say she shouldn’t have thrown it. Clearly she was out of line, and I said what she did was assault, I just believe that his reaction was extremely disproportionate.
@Salena I agree with you 110%
that’s why involving the bouncers is the way to handle it …..
@ Salena
Very well said. People who says she deserved it are disgusting. No woman should deserve a beat down even if she did start it..Remember people she is someones daughter/sister/friend.. you wouldnt want to see this happen to someone you knew regardless of other peoples’ personal opinions of them.
@Pixie – It is my belief that if someone does something to me that I don’t like, it is MY responsibility to do the *right* thing and walk away. I am the only person whose actions I can control. I can not concern myself with how others handle themselves.
Sure, she shouldn’t have been an asshole, but he had the opportunity to end it, and instead he chose to be a douche and beat up someone smaller and weaker than he.
Finger pointing and laying blame on the other party is tantamount to feeling entitled, and that’s bs.
yes CB because you are a rational adult, but you can’t just blindly assume everyone is going to act like you and be rational and walk away. i am saying both bear a responsibility for their actions in the situation.
@ spice i agree either one of them should have gone and gotten a bouncer.
@ Salena I am glad that someone else sees this for what it is.
