Donald Trump is transforming everyday White House business into a spectacle worthy of an audience ... including the signing of several executive orders.

Check it out ... hours after he was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, Trump hit the stage at the Capital One Arena in Washington D.C., where he put pen to paper and signed off on a number of his previously announced executive orders.

While the signing of an executive order is often done in the Oval Office in front of members of the press, DT chose to shake things up on inauguration day and essentially give the POTUS paperwork the WWE treatment ... signing the documents in front of a cheering crowd of his supporters.

Theo Von will have something hilarious to share on his next podcast episode after attending Donald Trump's 2nd inauguration ... and Logan Paul plays a major role in the story.

Check it out ... Logan is filming himself while taking in the speeches at the Capitol Building Monday morning, when Theo, who is seated right in front of him at the inauguration, tumbles backwards without warning.

The accident prompts quite a reaction from others in the crowd, who look over at Theo -- with a mix of concern and frustration. Someone noticeably shushes the group, even as Logan is asking Theo if he's alright ... and declares he predicted an accident like this would occur.

Paris Hilton's son has a new idol inspiring his career goals ... the little one wants to be a firefighter when he grows up following the destructive L.A. wildfires.

We caught up with the heiress and her young son, Phoenix Reum, at the Beverly Glen Deli in Los Angeles Monday, where she revealed her youngster is idolizing firemen these days ... so much so, he now wants to be one.

This isn't necessarily surprising, given Paris and her family were directly impacted by the recent infernos in SoCal ... with their Malibu home getting scorched to the ground earlier this month.

Travis Scott is giving back to Los Angeles communities impacted by the wildfires, pledging to donate proceeds he makes from merch sales from his new song to relief efforts ... TMZ has learned.

Here's the deal ... Travis debuted his new single, 4x4 at the College Football Playoff National Championship game on Monday. We're told following the segment, Travis and Team Cactus released new items on his website -- 2 pieces of merch that honor the brave first responders in L.A. and 1 CD single for 4x4.

We're told Travis, who performed Monday with the HBCU marching band members from Morehouse, has agreed to donate 100% of the net proceeds from the sales to Direct Relief - California Wildfire Response Fund.

With thousands of families displaced, 27 lives lost, and thousands of animals affected, Travis is one of many celebs stepping up to support relief efforts.

Comedian Luenell is taking shots at the conservatorship controlling Wendy Williams' life ... going as far as to call the TV personality's legal guardian "the devil."

We caught up with the comedian at LAX following Wendy's recent pleas for freedom -- in which she compared her current treatment to prison -- and the actress made it clear she supports her friend 100 percent.

As Luenell sees it ... Wendy wasn't hurting anyone but herself before she was put into a court-appointed conservatorship in 2022 ... defending Wendy's situation is unacceptable, comparing it to Diddy's even -- who is currently incarcerated while awaiting his sex trafficking and racketeering trial.

A fuming husband really dug himself into a hole after his wife vented about her boss -- deciding the best handle on the situation was to whack the guy in the head with a shovel.

It’s all caught on camera -- a man strolls into Machado Supermarket in Sinop, Brazil, on Saturday, casually browses the shovels, picks his weapon of choice, and then ambushes the unsuspecting manager from behind with a vicious strike.

This wasn’t exactly a spur-of-the-moment decision. The guy strolled around with a shovel for a while, waited for the manager to get distracted on the phone, and then struck, swinging hard directly at the victim's head.

Justin Baldoni certainly doesn't look like a guy in the middle of a nasty legal battle with his "It Ends With Us" costar Blake Lively -- even though both have been at each other's throats.

Check out new video/photos, obtained by TMZ ... Justin -- who also directed the controversial film -- was photographed Saturday splashing around in the waters on the sandy beaches of Maui, Hawaii.

Justin was also filmed with his shirt off -- putting his ripped abs on full display while flashing a big smile. Our sources say his kids and friends were having some fun in the sun, too.

Newly inaugurated President Donald Trump is formally declaring the United States government will only recognize two genders ... and he's set to target federal protections for transgender people.

In Trump's inaugural address delivered from the Capitol Rotunda Monday, he announced ... "As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders -- male and female."

Trump is expected to issue an executive order aimed at limiting medical care and participation in sports competitions for transgender individuals. An incoming official said only two sexes will be recognized on passports and visas, according to The Associated Press.

Mark Zuckerberg had the best view of anyone at Donald Trump's inauguration ... because he was sitting next to Lauren Sanchez -- and staring down at her chest!!!

The Meta owner got caught on camera eyeballing Sanchez's assets while attending Monday's swearing-in of DT as the 47th President in the Capitol Rotunda, along with the world's biggest power-brokers.

Zuck was also seated near Sanchez's fiancé, Amazon owner Jeff Bezos, and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner.

Elon Musk gave a speech to enthusiastic Donald Trump fans Monday, hours after the presidential inauguration ... and he made a gesture that harkened back to a dark time.

At Capital One Arena, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO strode to the podium, laughing maniacally, and thanked the cheering crowd ... and then slapped his right hand hard to his chest, and extended it out in front of him, palm down -- in what looks very suspiciously like a Nazi salute. He then repeated the same action to those seated behind him.

The provocative signal has many people online and on-air comparing the expression to the WWII-era "Sieg Heil" salute to Nazi Germany dictator Adolf Hitler. That salute reportedly derives from an Ancient Roman Empire salute, more commonly performed with the slapped chest. Both salutes are generally associated with fascist history in Europe.

Kate Upton was soaking up the sun and family vibes, taking a stroll along Miami Beach with her hubby, Justin Verlander.

The supermodel looked happy and chill, rocking a laid-back all-black look, while Justin kept it beachy in shorts and a white tee Sunday.

Holding her sandals in hand, Kate was giggling away with Justin -- totally vibing on just another perfect beach day.

Hillary Clinton couldn't keep her composure during Donald Trump's 2nd inaugural address ... openly laughing at the president following his "Gulf of America" announcement.

Check it out ... as Trump -- who had just been sworn in as the United States' 47th president -- reiterated his plan to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America," HC burst out laughing ... and prompted a bit of side eye from her husband, former President Bill Clinton.

The former Secretary of State did try to stifle her laughter ... watch the video, you can see her bury her chin in her chest as Trump continued to address the nation.

Nicole Scherzinger is doing what she does best -- heating things up on her Hawaiian getaway and leaving those January blues in the dust!

The singer was serving up serious beach body goals, rocking a tiny black bikini and sarong cover-up, all while soaking in the stunning ocean views with full confidence.

Nicole was working those angles like a true queen, radiating peace and tranquility in paradise, giving us absolute ferocity in every shot.

What does retirement look like for Tyson Fury, one of the greatest boxers to ever step foot in the squared circle?! Mickey Mouse and long lines!

Yes, The Gypsy King may already be longing for the days of getting punched in the head repeatedly after a long day at the amusement park (kidding, of course😉)!

Tyson's wife, Paris, shared a few pics and videos of the family outing ... and all kidding aside, it looks like the Fury fam, mom, dad, and all seven kids, are enjoying the time together!

Kevin Powell, an acclaimed writer and activist, is putting Snoop Dogg on blast for performing for Donald Trump ahead of the inauguration ... accusing the rap legend of selling out.

We caught up with Kevin on "TMZ Live" Monday, where he shared his candid opinion about Snoop's decision to perform at Trump's pre-inauguration ball over the weekend ... slamming SD and saying the performance is proof of the A-lister's "lack of values."

Kevin notes Snoop wasn't always this way, pointing out the rap mogul has a long history of being there for his community. Yet, KP says Snoop's decision to perform for Trump spoke volumes ... alleging the "Drop It Like It's Hot" rapper has abandoned his audience "for a bag of money."
