Mackenzie Shirilla says she's bored to tears behind bars ... but she might want to get used to it, considering she's serving 2 concurrent life sentences.

TMZ obtained audio from a prison phone call between Mackenzie and her mom, Natalie, where the convicted killer complains about how slowly time is passing in lockup.

You can hear Mackenzie's annoyance ... she doesn't have access to her commissary and complains about having one book she doesn't want to keep reading over and over.

Well, that was fast ... Bella Vaughn and Hunter Johnson from TLC's "Unexpected" have split less than a month after announcing they were planning to get married.

While Bella clarified there wasn't some massive scandal behind the split, she claimed Hunter lied to her and hurt her feelings ... and she said the relationship had simply run its course.

Bowen Yang says he once attended conversion therapy just so he could end up at the "gayest school in the country" ... and the story from his youth actually has a pretty funny plot twist.

It's Heidi Klum's birthday and we're celebrating by taking a look at her hottest snaps from over the years ... and with 53 trips around the sun, there's a lot to soak in.

Say this for Heidi ... this German-American model spends a whole lotta time in a bikini. When Heidi isn't showing off her fantastic bod, you can catch her doing the millions of other projects that keep her busy ... all while looking like a complete dime.

Heidi's way more than a pretty face ... she's a businesswoman, actress and even a painter!!!

In other words, this busy woman deserves the relaxation and sunbathing she does year-round.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass isn't pulling any punches on the eve of Election Day ... taking direct aim at challenger Spencer Pratt and questioning whether the reality star has ever held a job outside of being on TV.

We got the mayor Monday at Pann's Restaurant, where she framed the mayoral race as a choice between governing experience and reality TV fame.

Bass rattles off what she considers key accomplishments from her time in office before brushing off Pratt as a "reality TV star villain" who doesn't understand how city government operates.

A source tells TMZ ... before the band started playing "She Talks to Angels," the crowd started chanting "U.S.A."

George Floyd's family members are trying to wrap their heads around what they view as an "insane" move by Minnesota Republicans to honor Derek Chauvin ... and they suspect the Kevin Hart roast played a role here.

Travis Cains, spokesman for The Gianna and George Floyd Foundation, tells TMZ … the family sees the Minnesota GOP's moment of silence for Floyd's convicted killer as a shocking display that piggybacks off those who shrugged off Tony Hinchcliffe's firestorm-creating quip at Kevin's roast.

We're told the Floyd family feels like Tony's joke "opened up doors for more racism" ... and they're seeing that play out in Minnesota.

Travis says ... "To put a guy on the pedestal and hold a moment of silence for him is insane. The whole world knows that the public lynching of George Floyd was tragic." He adds the foundation and family work to spread a peaceful, positive message.

President Donald Trump is abandoning plans to hand out nearly $2 billion to his allies -- including J6 rioters -- on the heels of judges blocking the so-called anti-weaponization fund.

One source told Axios, which first reported the news, "It's dead for now."

Janel doesn't have to cut her ex monthly checks either ... they both waived their right to collect spousal support.

She also walks away with her 2019 Audi SQ7, all jewelry, and clothes in her possession, her credit card points, several bank accounts, and one-half of their $3.2 million home, which they plan to unload ASAP.

The Eagles will get first and fifth-round picks from the Pats as a result of the transaction.

The stars of "Heated Rivalry" didn't turn down Variety's "Actors on Actors" because of their Emmy ineligibility, despite speculation suggesting otherwise ... TMZ has learned.

Our sources tell us Connor Storrie, Hudson Williams and François Arnaud aren't avoiding the high-profile series over concerns about awards campaigning or optics ... instead, we're told the actors are just too busy.

Variety's co-editor-in-chief Ramin Setoodeh claims he tried to book the trio but was turned down ... and he says he's certain they would have accepted if "Heated Rivalry" was eligible for the next Emmy Awards. The show is not eligible because the Canadian streamer that produces the series did not submit it for consideration.

However, our sources say the Emmys, or lack thereof, played no part in their decision not to accept an invite to go on the show.
