Johnny Knoxville is Single Again!

All you single girls, take a moment to swoon. Jackass star (and super-hottie) Johnny Knoxville is back on the dating scene.

Knoxville, who married Melanie Lynn Clapp in May 1995, has gotten a divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple, who have a daughter together (Madison, 12), officially separated in July 2006, but have yet to settle all financial and custody arrangements.

Knoxville is best known to reality TV fans as the daredevil leader of the Jackass gang, which also includes such notorious wildmen as Bam Margera and Steve-O, who has recently been in the news for his stint in jail and his admission into a psychiatric hospital for drug and alcohol dependency. Knoxville’s stunts have often resulted in injury, the most recent being a torn urethra from a failed motorcycle stunt staged during the Jackass 24-hour “take-over” on MTV.

Knoxville is well-known on the big screen as well, having scored starring roles in such movies as The Dukes of Hazzard and The Ringer.

Jackass Star Steve-O’s Latest Stunt: Jail Time

We know him as the extreme stunt-puller of reality TV show Jackass who’ll do just about any stunt for the fun of it. But his neighbors know him as the guy who got arrested for bashing holes in their walls.

According to Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson, Ana Aguirre, Stephen Glover (AKA: Steve-O) was arrested at just after 5:00 AM Monday after his neighbor made a citizen’s arrest. The Jackass star had reportedly bashed holes in the neighbor’s walls in an attempt to drive them out.

Although original reports by the police claimed that the vandalism took place outside, over a fence, the MTV star had apparently videotaped himself bashing holes in the walls inside the apartment building, and posted the videos on his website.

Things got from bad to worse for Steve-O, as the police discovered a small amount of drugs on him and also discovered an outstanding warrant for a previous traffic violation.

Steve-O is being held at the Hollywood Community Police Station on charges of vandalism, possession of a controlled substance, and having an outstanding traffic warrant.
