O.J. Simpson held a Super Bowl party in his cell at Lovelock Correctional Center in Nevada, where he’s serving a 33-year sentence for kidnapping and armed robbery.

O.J. is one of the few inmates who has his own TV, so his friends crammed into his 80-square-foot cell to watch. According to a pal, “If you have the money, you can buy a TV at the inmate store and put it in your cell."

These days, O.J. is so popular. “He’s like the Godfather of the prison now."

ShowBiz: TV News:  IN CASE YOU MISSED IT.... GRAMMYS CRASHER JAILED FOR PULLING ON-STAGE STUNT DURING ADELE'S WIN [2013-02-12 01:00:00]

A Grammy Awards’ crasher spent the night behind bars for storming the stage during the ceremony.

As Jennifer Lopez presented Adele with her Grammy for best pop solo performance, the evening's first award, a man in a tuxedo and black glasses appears at the microphone to greet the British singer.

The man said, "It's such an honor to receive this award.  I love you, Adele."

Lopez gave the man a stern look and, with a flick of the thumb, gestures him off stage.

As Lopez's co-presenter Pitbull offers Adele a kiss of congratulations, the man can be seen exiting upstage.

Meanwhile Lopez kept perfect composure, and it was all over in the blink of an eye.

It turned out that the man was Vitalli Sediuk, a TV presenter from Ukraine, who was also slapped by Will Smith during the Moscow premiere of “Men in Black 3” last year.

Somehow the man was able to sneak into the Grammys with no ticket or credentials of any kind.


** The man was placed under arrest for trespassing and spent the night in jail.
