"Pussy" Busted

[Renew Deal]

April 6, 2005 -- Is the wedding still on? Fuhgeddaboudit!
"Sopranos" star Vincent Pastore — who played "Big Pussy" on the HBO hit mob drama until he got rubbed out at the end of Season 2 — has been "hit" again, this time with an assault rap for allegedly beating up his long-time girlfriend and fiancée.

Make that ex-fiancée.

"She looks like she went a few rounds in a prizefight," said a close friend of the victim, on-again, off-again gal pal Lisa Regina, whom Pastore met when she played a bit role as one of Tony Soprano's first-season goomahs.

"He beat the s--- out of her," said the friend.

Pastore, 58, is denying the charges — namely, misdemeanor assault, which carries a sentence of up to a year in jail. He turned himself in early yesterday morning, and was released without bail by late afternoon.

6. And you have to love the headline.

8. Yes. "Pussy Busted" trumps "I Have Cancer" any day.

Can't argue with that, especially not when the paper in question is the NY Post.

AS for big puss... isn't he the one on repoman always saying "If you can't pay for it, don't buy it!"

10. You gotta give them credit though

I mean, seriously, how often do you get to write that word in a front page headline.

11. My, my: Talk about life imitating art

If memory serves, the actor playing Paulie was once part of a gang...and is a die-hard Republican today.

I hope Gandolfini is a decent guy, anyway.

12. Self control Pussyboy, it's called self control.

Punch the wall or a pillow or something if you have to but unless your life is in danger you never ever hit a woman. It's the height of cowardice.
