No matter how badly you disgrace yourself, there's always someone willing to forgive you.

Or hire you.

Now that willpower-free former NYC congressman Anthony Weiner is going to be single again and better able to continue his budding photography career, he's gotten a job offer.

Dennis Hof (HBO's Cathouse), owner of the Bunny Ranch brothel in Carson City, Nevada, is offering Weiner a full-time position as director of social media.

#Weinerexcited

"This guy is a great orator, and his political career showed that," Hof said in a press release. "Clearly, his communication skills also extended into the world of digital media, and that is a huge component of our business in 2016. The very thing that killed him in politics and prompted his wife [Huma Abedin] to leave him is a valued skill in my world. As the Bunny Ranch's social media director, an insatiable appetite for sexually charged posting is not only encouraged, it's part of the job description!"

Hof is willing to match Weiner's congressional salary, complete with full benefits.

Wouldn't working in a whorehouse be benefit enough for Weiner?

In other trouble ...

Chris Brown came out of his Los Angeles home peacefully Tuesday after an hourslong standoff with police responding to a woman's call for help.

Tuesday night the Los Angeles Times reported that Brown had been taken into custody and would be arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.

Police said the unidentified woman who made the call for help about 3 a.m. was not inside Brown's hilltop estate.

Earlier Tuesday, Brown posted videos to social media declaring his innocence.

"I don't care. Y'all gonna stop playing with me like I'm the villain out here, like I'm going crazy," he said via Instagram. "When you get the warrant or whatever you need to do, you're going to walk right up in here and you're going to see nothing. You idiots."

DWT casts new S

Since Dennis Hof didn't offer him a job at the Bunny Ranch, Ryan Lochte is taking a more standard approach to image reconstruction: Appearing on Dancing With The Stars.

Lochte will be teamed with Cheryl Burke. How long until those two are linked as a couple?

The big DWTS news for Philadelphia, however, is that Amber Rose will be moving all the parts her mama gave her and some that might have come from other sources. Given how skimpy the costumes and how sexy the dances usually are on DWTS, Amber's outgoing personality, dexterity and experience on the pole make her a front runner - either as a finalist or first voted off.

Or most likely to get the show banned.

She'll be fittingly paired with "bad boy of the ballroom" Maksim Chmerkovskiy.

Other "Star" dancers this season include 16-year-old Olympic gymnast Laurie Hernandez (gymnasts are always tough), former Texas Gov. Rick Perry (hey, a reality show helped propel a Trump candidacy), Maureen McCormick (a/k/a Marcia Brady), Vanilla Ice, Babyface, former NFL wide receiver Calvin Johnson Jr., requisite Disney Channel star Jake T. Austin, race car driver James Hinchcliffe, country star Jana Kramer, Taxi alum Marilu Henner, who should never forget a step, and Little Women: LA star Terra Jole.

TATTBIT

People magazine reports that Heart singer Ann Wilson's husband, Dean Stuart Wetter, was arrested early Saturday morning after being accused of assault.

The victims were reportedly his nephews, Curtis and William Crowe.

They're the 16-year-old twin sons of Heart guitarist/singer Nancy Wilson and her ex, filmmaker Cameron Crowe (Almost Famous).

The incident took place during a Heart concert and seems to have been caused by the boys visiting Ann's new tour bus and neglecting to close the door behind them, putting the couple's dogs at risk.

Wetter reportedly nearly choked the boys for their error.

Try to understand.

Try to understand. Try, try, try to understand . . .
