Klay Thompson might not be quite ready to go Instagram official with Megan Thee Stallion ... but, that doesn't mean he won't tease fans with a couple of strategically taken photos.

The basketball star posted a series of pics from the Bahamas to his Instagram Saturday ... including one where he seems to be locking lips with a woman who's wearing a tight pair of leggings.

You can't see her face in the pic ... but, later, KT posts a photo of his hand wrapped around this woman's -- and, the nails seem to match up with a recent photo MTS put on her IG.

The ghost of Jeffrey Epstein continues to haunt, and Tom Brady hooking up with Sofia Vergara?!? So we gotta ask ...

"Empire" star Bryshere Gray needs mental help more than a jail sentence -- this, according to his pal Dustin "Chosen" Wilkins ... who filed a criminal complaint against him in June after the pair got into a physical altercation at a Virginia hotel.

Chosen tells TMZ he only went forward with the report because the actor is suffering from several mental health conditions that were exasperated when he stopped taking his medications -- and was drinking on top of that -- and believed pressing charges could jumpstart getting him into treatment.

The filmmaker -- who was preparing to work on a reality series called "The Starboy" with Bryshere before he lunged at him during the heated hotel dispute -- says his pal is actually quite responsible when it comes to taking his meds and monitoring his alcohol intake.

However, Chosen adds Bryshere is easily sidetracked by people who don't have his best interest in mind.

Chosen describes Bryshere -- who we learned was dropped by his pubic relations agency this week -- as his "little brother" ... which is why he cares so much about what happens with him over the assault and battery charge.

Chosen tells us he would gladly have the charge dropped if Bryshere would commit to a mental health treatment plan and focus on his wellbeing.

He says he worries about the possibility of BG heading to the clink -- and even admits he regrets filing the complaint.

We broke the news -- Chosen filed a misdemeanor complaint against the actor and rapper on June 13 by bypassing police and directly working with the Chesapeake magistrate's office. A warrant for his arrest was issued ... and Bryshere was taken into custody on June 15.

Plot twist -- Chosen is the one who bonded him out within hours.

Oh -- and he wants to make it crystal clear that their quarrel did not erupt over a "payment dispute" as he wrote in his complaint. He says the situation quickly got ugly due to the state of Bryshere's mental health, and that's that.

Production sources confirm to TMZ the pair were spending time together in Virginia as they prepared to work on "The Starboy" ... but Bryshere is no longer associated with the project.

It's not clear if the "Canal Street" actor will return to the small screen anytime soon, as Chosen says he previously confessed to him he wants out of the entertainment industry because it's been so hard on him.

Chosen says he and BG do not currently aren't in contact due to the "no contact" order in place. Court documents show Chosen appeared at the Chesapeake General District Court on Monday to amend the bond provision so Bryshere could have contact with him ... but was denied.

Bryshere is due back in court at the end of the month.

We reached out to Bryshere's reps for comment ... and they say they're no longer working with him due to the state of his mental health and concerns over this legal representation.

They explain ... "Our company integrity prevents us from participating in any activity that places Mr. Gray at risk. We are not familiar with the legal representation handling Mr. Gray's criminal case in Virginia. Their representation of Mr. Gray makes us very uncomfortable, and we hope for the best outcome for Mr. Gray."

Alright, folks, we've got another guess who for you -- this actor might look a little different without his red cape, though!

We caught this guy signing autographs for his fans -- that's pretty super, man! Plus, he was accompanied by his adorable service dog Kal, who was named after a certain Kryptonian he's very familiar with ... he appeared as the character in five movies!

This guy might not have stuck around for James Gunn's take on the DC comics mainstay, but don't worry, he had his time -- and facing off against Ben Affleck as Batman's no easy feat!

Scooter Braun is praising Justin Bieber's new album "Swag" after they reached an 8-figure settlement over money he's been owed by his former mentee for years.

SB hopped on his Instagram Story Saturday to call the surprise album "without a doubt, the most authentically Justin Bieber album to date." He adds ... "It's beautiful, raw, and truly him. And that matters."

As you know, Scooter discovered a tween Justin on YouTube back in the day ... and helped him skyrocket into the biggest pop singer in the world.

He acknowledges Justin's musical growth he witnessed during their time together, but also gives credit to Justin for fully stepping into his own during this project -- even making sure fans know he had no role in it.

Ben Askren says he let the medical challenges he's faced over the last month affect him ... admitting he's felt sorry for himself -- but, now, that's all over.

Askren shared a journal entry written by a friend of the family who wrote on Father's Day that doctors planned to examine him for a potential lung transplant ... that was less than a month ago, and now BA has two new lungs.

It's a bird ... it's a plane ... it's a gallery about Superman! We're looking back at some of the actors who've portrayed the Man of Steel over the years -- like Christopher Reeve, who filled the character's tights for the first time in 1978.

If you don't know ... top lawmakers have accused Boelter of committing the shootings for political reasons -- but, he says that's just not accurate.

9:14 AM PT -- Rosie O’Donnell just took a swipe at Donald Trump after he claimed he was looking into taking away her American citizenship.

In a fiery social media post, she calls 47 a "criminal con man sexual abusing liar out to harm our nation to serve himself" who despises that she speaks out against him.

While he called her a threat to America, O'Donnell labeled him a "a dangerous old soulless man with dementia who lacks empathy compassion and basic humanity."

She also reposted a pic on IG ... calling Trump a "F***ing infestation."

President Donald Trump is ready to wash his hands -- and America's -- clean of Rosie O’Donnell ... 'cause he's threatening to revoke her citizenship status.

In a seemingly unprompted post on his Truth Social platform Saturday morning, the prez shared a post declaring he's giving "serious consideration to taking away her Citizenship" because she's "not in the best interests of our Great Country."

He added ... "She is a Threat to Humanity, and should remain in the wonderful Country of Ireland, if they want her. GOD BLESS AMERICA!"

He did not specify how the actress and television host is a threat to all of humanity. Notably, a president is not able to revoke the citizenship of "persons born or naturalized in the United States," per the 14th Amendment to the Constitution.
