Joe, who has been cleared by police of all charges in connection with the brawl, claims he was in fear for life after the 115-pound brunette threatened to kill him.

Of course, we all know how scary those nude models can be…..

Brody — who recently underwent surgery to have his appendix removed — tells TMZ.com that he and Jade were having a belated 26th birthday bash at Guys & Dolls when the former Playmate tossed a drink on Francis, who she believes has been stalking one of her friends.

How old are these people again?

Subsequently, Joe is accused of pulling a Chris Brown and throwing Jade to the ground, “punching and kicking her.” (Wow — a pornographer who doesn’t respect women? This is truly shocking!) Jayde claims she suffered facial swelling and bruising and sore lower abdomen as a result of Joe’s alleged assault. She also says some of her hair was pulled out in the fight. The model plans to file charges against Francis.

But the fun didn’t stop there.

Joe Francis then followed Brody out of the club and punched him in the face. The reality star was then shot with a taser gun by an unknown assiliant.

The Los Angeles Police Department is investigating the incident.
