The video clearly shows the female driver of a Honda Civic pulling into a gas station in Studio City, CA followed by a police car. The woman emerges from the vehicle and complies with the cops ...laying face first on the ground as officers ordered Ward out of the car.

Ward -- who was described as "cooperative" -- kept his hands in the air during the incident and followed orders until cops placed him in handcuffs.

After Hines was taken into custody, two cops approached the passenger side of the car with their guns drawn and took a closer look inside the vehicle. But they both quickly holstered their weapons once they realized nobody else was inside.

TMZ broke the story ... cops pulled the car over because it had recently been reported stolen. But it was all a mistake and Hines and the driver were released after cops discovered the stolen vehicle report was way outdated.

James Graham -- who rode Daisy Devine to a fourth place finish in the Kentucky Oaks event on Friday -- hopped up on the bar at the PRIME lounge in Louisville on Wednesday ... and blew off his top at a fundraiser for the Permanently Disabled Jockeys Fund.

The hairy chested stud, along with the J. Wagner Group, got the patrons to pony up over $3,000 in just three hours.

Manny -- who is scheduled to beat Sugar Shane Mosley tomorrow in Las Vegas -- weighed in at 145 lbs ... 2 lbs under the welterweight limit.

Immediately after getting off the scale, Manny followed his tradition and ate a big meal prepared by his long-time personal chef.

Pacquiao is rumored to hit the stage at the Mandalay Bay Hotel after he fights Sugar Shane Mosley in Vegas tomorrow night ... assuming he wins the fight.

And in between sparring sessions this week, Manny took some time to focus on his singing voice ... during a rehearsal with a live band.

Here's how the math breaks down -- according to a sales rep for the Derby, 7 companies paid $450,000 each for a spot in the swanky Trackside Village on Turn One ... where toilet experts posted up 2 VIP restroom trailers. That's $3.15 million total for all the companies.

Trackside Village's capacity is capped at 175 people -- and $3,150,000 divided by 175 equals $18,000 a person.

TMZ has learned 12 real life horse-racing jockeys -- 7 of whom are slated to ride in the Kentucky Derby -- shed their shirts for an upcoming "2012 Thoroughbred Racing Jockeys" calendar.

And get this: Mr. July is none other than 5'5", 108-pound stud Julien Leparoux (pictured left) ... who's slated to ride the odd-on favorite at the Derby ... Dialed In.

The mastermind behind the calendar -- Christine Sabia -- tells TMZ that Leparoux agreed to up the sex appeal by slathering on a layer of baby oil for the shoot ... you know, to give him that extra shine.

According to the criminal complaint, it all happened back in October -- before Mayweather's face-poking incident -- two security guards cited a couple of Mayweather's cars parked outside his 12,000-foot mansion ... and Floyd flipped.

Mayweather allegedly threatened the guards -- who patrol the boxer's upscale housing community -- after he noticed the citations, claiming, "My homies have guns. If you want me to call them, they'd come over here and take care of you."

According to the complaint, Floyd added, "These are my f**king cars. Don't touch my f**king cars."

The "Dancing with the Stars" contestant was a passenger in a Honda Civic around 2 AM ... when LAPD officers flipped on their lights and sirens and pulled the car over.

Law enforcement sources tell us cops had run the license plate and noticed the car had been reported stolen. We're told police drew their weapons ... and ordered both Hines and the female driver out of the car and placed them both in handcuffs.

The female driver then explained ... SHE was the person who reported the car stolen in the first place after an incident involving a valet. But she got her car back ... and forgot to tell cops to call off the alert.

Sheen was hanging out in Denver, CO on Friday when he felt like taking some batting practice ... so he bought five cases of baseballs and headed over to All City Field where a local club team was holding practice.

Sheen -- who was with former Major League stud Todd Zeile -- asked the players if he could take a few cuts ... and they were more than happy to let him play ball.

With Zeile on the mound ... Sheen ripped one over the right field fence ... 360 feet deep!!!!

Chyna made her TNA debut Tuesday night during a taping sesh for the wrestling fed -- after a 9-YEAR hiatus -- but according to sources, no official agreement is in place to keep her around ... in fact, we're told, she's currently working on a "handshake deal with a very, very short leash."

Chyna's return to wrestling will air over the next three weeks -- but her future afterward is still up in the air.

Question is ...

Macdonald made the bet at the sports book for the Wynn/ Encore hotels on April 29 -- and showed off the betting ticket on last night's "Sport's Show with Norm Macdonald." But Norm isn't getting the best odds.

Manny is such a HUGE favorite ... Norm's $25k bet will only pay off $3,125 if Pacquiao wins the fight.

But if Manny loses, Norm's out $25k.

Good bet??

TMZ has confirmed ... the Orlando Police Department got an anonymous "non-specific" tip about high-end cars entering and exiting Johnson's condo complex yesterday afternoon.

We're told cops performed a "knock and talk" at Johnson's Florida residence to follow up on the tip. When cops arrived to Johnson's home, he was "cooperative" and "cordial" -- and in the middle of a shoot for a TV project.

Law enforcement tells us they checked out the scene -- and determined there was absolutely nothing illegal about the situation ... and left without incident.

Moments after cops walked out the door, Johnson tweeted, "Y did the police just walk in my condo saying they think it's drug activity because it's alot of traffic but it was the MTV camera crew."

You might recognize it -- it's the same Mr. Socko Mankind infamously used to ensnare The Rock back in 1998 ... securing his first WWF championship title. Yes, it was WWF back then.

And that's just the beginning -- Mick's also selling off his original Mankind sleeveless shirt, the elastic wristband he used to execute THE MANDIBLE CLAW ... and the bloody rags he wore when he faced Ric Flair last year ... possibly Mick's last match ever.

The auction's going live today ... and it's all to benefit Mick's charity -- the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.

Sources close to the wedding tell us, Tony and Candice Crawford are getting hitched on May 28 at the swanky Arlington Hall -- and based on the pictures, it ain't gonna be cheap.

At 6:55 PM, Ramsay threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Dodger Stadium ... but by 7:50 PM ... he was sitting on the floor at Staples Center next to David Beckham ... to watch the Lakers take on the Dallas Mavericks.

So Gordon had a 55 minute window to get from the pitcher's mound ... into his seat at Staples Center. Let's do the math ...

If it took 15 mins to get out of the stadium ... 15 to drive over to Staples ... and another 10 to get to his seat ... that means he spent a grand total of 15 minutes INSIDE Dodger Stadium ... putting his exit time at 7:10 ... right when the game was scheduled to begin.

Which means ... dude probably cut out before the REAL first pitch.
