The real-life Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort predicts North Korea's dictator could be killed in a matter of months ... by his own people, with a little prodding.

Jordan -- who spent 22 months in prison for fraud and money laundering -- was in Hermosa Beach Tuesday celebrating Independence Day when he went off on the leader of North Korea, Kim Jong-un ... calling the guy "out of his f****** mind."

Jordan says "they" gotta figure out how to inspire North Koreans to off their leader ... he doesn't say who "they" is, but it sounds like he's talking about our government.

Big Mike -- the founder of Advanced Nutrients who also throws epic Malibu parties -- had his celebrity Fourth of July bash interrupted when the house next door went up in flames ... presumably from fireworks.

Lots of celebs watched -- Tara Reid, Frank Miller, Stephen Belafonte -- during the BBQ when some people walked by Mike's home on the beach and started shooting off fireworks. Security chased them away, but the next thing everyone knew ... the house next door went up in flames.

Unclear how much damage the house sustained, and it looks like the culprits got away.

Amelia Earhart survived what everyone thought was a fatal flight and ended up a prisoner of war ... this according to a new documentary.

As everyone knows, almost 80 years ago to the day, Earhart took off in her Lockheed Electra from New Guinea and vanished. Neither her plane nor her body were ever found. She was presumed dead.

But a new documentary -- "Amelia Earhart: The Lost Evidence" -- shows a photo taken on a South Pacific island days after she disappeared. The doc claims Amelia is in the photo, sitting on a dock, surrounded by people who might be her captors.

The documentary -- which airs Sunday on the History Channel -- claims the U.S. government covered it all up to save face.

Ben Affleck did his best to blend in with the crowd during a 4th of July parade, but it didn't work ... at all.

Ben walked with his two of his kids, Sam and Seraphina, in the Pacific Palisades parade ... looks like he didn't get the blue shirt memo.

Ben's ex, Jennifer Garner, was there watching from the sideline with daughter Violet. The parade has been a family tradition for years and looks like it's gonna stay that way. 

It's been 2 years since the two split but they've been doing the co-parenting thing, recently taking a family trip to the Bahamas. 

Tupac broke off his sexual relationship with Madonna because she was white.

The rapper poured out his heart to the singer in an extremely revealing letter he wrote in jail.  

Tupac writes, "For you to be seen with a black man wouldn't in any way jeopardize your career, if anything it would make you seem that much more open and exciting." 

The legend then confesses, "But for me at least in my previous perception I felt due to my 'image' I would be letting down half of the people who made me what I thought I was."

It's an amazing letter. Tupac clearly knows he devastated Madonna by the rejection, saying, "I never meant to hurt you."

You gotta read the entire note. It will go up for auction July 19-28 at Gotta Have Rock and Roll. Starting bid is $100k and it's expected to fetch a lot more. The last letter written by Tupac sold for more than $170k.

Janet Jackson's estranged husband looks like he has a go-to spot to hang with their baby boy, and he knows just where to park it.

Wissam Al Mana was holding baby Eissa Monday in London on a park bench -- one he appears to frequent with his kid.

As we reported ... Janet and Wissam split back in April and are in the throes of a divorce. Their son was born just a few months before the separation. 

You'd never know from looking at the pic ... Wissam's a billionaire. 

Emma Watson got the adrenaline juices flowing hard over the weekend with a little skydiving.

The "Beauty and the Beast" star hit up Skydive San Diego Saturday and strapped on for a jump from 13,000 feet. It was a tandem jump ... so no need for Emma to get certified or anything, but she looked like a total pro judging from how she stuck the landing.

We're told after hitting the ground, Emma hugged a mystery man but there wasn't much affection beyond that. Also ... witnesses tell us a few fans recognized Emma and asked to take pics, but she politely declined.

Paris Hilton and Kelly Osbourne's broker who specializes in tiny dogs has been accused in a police report of "fraud as result of a scam."

The customer who filed the report tells us she bought a teacup Maltese from Betty's Teacup Puppies for $7,150 May 23, and was assured the pooch would be delivered by June 1. She says time was of the essence because she was giving the dog to her brother who was leaving the country.

The woman says the broker reneged when she called and said the dog was too small to deliver by the deadline. So, the customer demanded her money back the the broker allegedly told her to pound sand. 

The broker admits she couldn't meet the June 1 deadline, but tells us her contracts clearly state no refunds ... if you pay for a dog, you get a dog. She tells us she'll gladly send a dog to the disgruntled customer.

Here's Fat Joe telling TMZ Sports about the time he almost got the HELL KICKED OUTTA HIM by Roy Jones Jr. ... and it was all over one of Joe's most favorite rap lines.

You might remember Ja Rule's 2004 hit "New York" which featured Joe and contained a line where the rapper makes reference to Roy's career struggles at the time, having been KO'd by Antonio Tarver.

"Even Roy Jones was forced to lean back," went the line.

Roy was none too pleased about the line -- which he interpreted as a diss -- and according to Joe actually threatened to beat the hell outta him, although in the end cooler heads prevailed.

Joe says they're all on good terms now.

We reached out to Roy about the whole thing ... and he confirmed to us it's 100% true, saying he was "furious" at the time ... but he's let it go.

So, all is well ... now listen to the track. It's still fire!
