Not only that ... but our sources say Kanye has been really working on himself ... and has spent a lot of time reflecting on his outlandish behavior earlier this year -- which included praising Hitler and spewing antisemitism.

Brit and the mystery man enjoyed a fun day off the California coast ... Tuesday night she posted a video of her and Sam 2.0 hanging out on a boat.
Britney was rocking a bikini, as per usual, but it looked way more appropriate in the nautical setting than her living room. She did give the guy a few kisses on the cheek, but no word on if this is a new romantic interest ... or just a friend with a boat.

We caught up with Joe Simpson at the Giving A Smile Foundation Gala in Beverly Hills Thursday night ... and we asked him if he could see Jessica and Eric jumping back into a relationship after announcing their split early this year.
Simpson says you never know what may come in the future ... which certainly sounds like a "maybe" to us -- though given the messy nature of the breakup, we wouldn't say it's super likely.
