"That's So Raven" actor Orlando Brown was so drunk at the time of his DUI arrest last month, his blood alcohol level was more than TWICE the legal limit ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

We're told Brown's B.A.C. was measured at .17 during the August 12 arrest -- more than double the limit in California, which is .08.

23-year-old Brown -- whose pregnant girlfriend was a passenger in the car during the arrest -- has been charged with 2 counts of DUI and could spend several months in jail if convicted.

TMZ broke the story, Brown was originally pulled over for driving without a license plate just a short distance from his L.A. home -- when cops noticed the smell of alcohol and arrested him.

He's due back in court later this month.

Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory is in the middle of a major face-lift -- and it's all to make room for Big Black's new penis enhancement ... offices.

Sources close to the MTV production tell us Rob's co-star has inked a spokesman deal with Extenze male enhancement pills. We're told Big Black's new gig will require extra office space at the FF ... so construction is underway and should be done before the new season premieres.

Wood for wood.

'Apollo 18' Cheat Sheet: Everything You Need To Know

We shed some light on the mysterious lunar adventure.
By Eric Ditzian

Let's give the folks responsible for "Apollo 18" some credit: The viral marketing campaign behind their moon-landing horror flick has been convincing enough that NASA has had to come out and declare, " 'Apollo 18' is not a documentary. The film is a work of fiction."

We're not exactly convinced the American public was starting to believe Apollo 18 wasn't, in fact, a canceled moon mission but, as the film suggests, a cover-up to hide a gruesome lunar run-in with alien life forms. Nor are we certain a government statement will have any effect on conspiracy-minded kooks other than to make them think, "See, man, I told you — they're hiding something!"

"Apollo 18," for its part, certainly is hiding something. The Weinstein Company is following the "Paranormal Activity" playbook, doling out only pieces of information about the "found-footage" film and hoping moviegoers shell out cash this weekend to find out the full story. We've gathered all those pieces together so you'll know everything there is to know about "Apollo 18" before hitting the theater.

Word of the project first popped up last fall. "Wanted" director Timur Bekmambetov was spearheading the effort, a story that would take the existing urban legend about Apollo 18 and inject some alien scares into it. A press release declared that Bekmambetov had been hired to shoot a documentary about the Russian space station and came across never-before-seen footage of the space disaster in Russia's archives. Trevor Cawood, a visual-effects vet from the "Matrix" films, came onboard to direct, but he was quickly replaced by Spanish filmmaker Gonzalo Lopez-Gallego.

The new director, in turn, was soon joined by a teaser poster: an astronaut's boot print next to an alien creature's print and the tagline looming above: "There's a reason we've never gone back to the moon."

The trailer touched down on the Web in February. And we were immediately freaked out. What was up with the dusty, cracked space helmet? And that gnarly looking infection? And the zombie-looking dude?

Questions — many, many gross questions. But we started to piece some of them together. NASA and the Department of Defense sent two astronauts to the moon on a secret mission in 1972. They discovered some non-American footprints. Had the Russians been there too? Hmmm. One of the NASA astronauts was bitten by some kind of alien creature, leading to a psychotic breakdown. Damnnnnn. Thus began the cover-up. Or the conspiracy theories. Heck, even NASA might have seen something coming, as an agency-commissioned study, called the Brookings Report, seems to predict the "discovery of artifacts from alien life forms on the surfaces of the Moon, Mars or Venus." Spooky!

All shall be revealed Friday (September 2), when "Apollo 18" hit theaters. Before then, we've got one last piece of video to bring you — and freak you the eff out. It's got a terrified Russian astronaut, shaky footage of the lunar landscape and, well, we're not exactly sure what happens at the end. But we're pretty sure things didn't end well for the spaceman.

Check out everything we've got on "Apollo 18."

Mark Ronson and Josephine De La Baume: Married!


Mark Ronson tied the knot with French model-actress Josephine De La Baume in France on Saturday, according to reports. They wed in Aix-en-Provence.

Instead of a standard black-and-white tuxedo, the hip musician and producer opted for a three-piece candy-striped suit and a pair of Ray-Ban shades.

His stunning bride made an equally unforgettable mark in a custom-designed creation by designer pal Zac Posen: a low-cut gown with a cropped veil.

Ronson is perhaps best known for producing Amy Winehouse's classic Back to Black, and his late friend's absence was keenly felt at the wedding bash.

"Amy was a great friend of both Mark and Josephine and they would have been thrilled to have her at their big day, but it wasn't to be," says the source.

"Amy would definitely have sung at the wedding if she were still alive, as she meant to much to both of them. Her death devastated the pair of them."

Guests included his sister, DJ Samantha Ronson, her fashion designer twin Charlotte Ronson, model Kate Moss and singer Lily Allen. Congrats to the couple!
