"Girls Gone Wild" video maker Joe Francis has been accused of committing assault and battery on Playboy 2008 Playmate of the Year Jayde Nicole, allegedly while at a Hollywood club.

Nicole was dating “Bromance” actor Brody Jenner at the time of the alleged incident.

The way in which the accusation was made public was through the social media phenom, Twitter.

The following was posted by Jenner on his Twitter account: “Joe Francis beat up my lady this morning for no reason! Pulled her to the ground, punched & kicked her? What does that say about him?"

“How can you call yourself a man when you beat up a girl?? Joe Francis is a piece of s***. Joe Francis needs to be in jail!!!," the Tweet continued.

Although no arrests have been made, Nicole had a bruised cheek, swollen face, bruised left rib, sore lower abdomen and some of her hair yanked out, according to TMZ.

She intends to press charges against the soft porn purveyor for criminal assault and battery.
