What do you get a guy for his birthday when his name literally reminds you of moneybags? If you're Kanye West ... you go big, black and Italian.

Ye blew the doors off all birthday surprises when he showed up to his former manager John Monopoly's party at Delilah in WeHo Wednesday night with a brand new luxury ride fresh off the lot -- a customized 2019 Lamborghini SUV.

John told us the gift was from a "very good guy" and brother of his with whom he goes back 30 years. He's coy about it, never dropping a name, but it was pretty easy to figure out. Monopoly discovered West and served as his manager for his first 3 albums.

We also got a pic of Kanye after he made the special delivery to confirm the poorly kept secret.

We're told the customized SUV with the matte-black paint job goes for around $300k ... and John says he didn't even see it coming.

BTW -- Monopoly's bday bash was also a lot of fun on the inside of the club in the private VIP section. Along with Kanye, we're told rapper Cam'ron, fashion designer Don C and Jacob York were there.

Tony Cox -- who starred alongside Billy Bob Thornton as his elf sidekick in the 'Bad Santa' films -- just delivered a terrible gift to an unlucky kid ... a foot injury and a busted up bike.

The veteran actor struck the boy on his bike Thursday in L.A. as he was turning right onto a street, while the kid was cruising through the crosswalk. As you can see ... the collision resulted in the bicycle's front tire getting pinned under Tony's ride.

We're told the kid suffered an injury to his foot as he was knocked off his Schwinn ... but was alert and conscious after the accident. EMTs arrived shortly afterward and he was taken to the hospital ... thank God he was wearing a helmet.

We've placed a call in with the LAPD who says they're still investigating the incident.

Cox started his career in 1980s in films like "Spaceballs" and "Dr. Heckyl and Mr. Hype." He's also been in "My, Myself & Irene" with Jim Carrey.

Leonardo DiCaprio doesn't need a flamethrower -- like he did in his latest role -- while yachting with his GF, because there's plenty of heat on board ... and we ain't talking about the hot tub water temp.

The "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" star and model/actress Camila Morrone were very cozy on the top deck of their luxury yacht in Positano, Italy. The couple's enjoying some R&R in the hot tub now that Leo's completed all his media duties leading up to his latest big screen release.

After you're done checking out Leo's alleged "dad bod" and Camila's flawless curves in a white one-piece ... check out where the hot tub's situated in this mega-yacht. The layout begs the question ... does Leo's ride beat Kylie's birthday luxury yacht? Debatable.

Anyway, Leo and Camila -- who've been together for about 18 months now -- do have some company with them, but the hot tub looks to be a couples only zone.

Giancarlo Stanton is 6 foot 4 inches and 250 pounds of hulking, baseball-smashing man ... and Tiffany Haddish says she wants EVERY. SINGLE. BIT. OF. HIM!!!!!

"That's what I'm talking about," Haddish says of the Yankees star outfielder ... "Somebody to burp me!!!"

Haddish has professed her love for the MLB stud before ... but she REALLY took her desire to get with Giancarlo a step further Wednesday night on the 'Late Show With Stephen Colbert.'

In fact, the "Girls Trip" actress developed a sneaky plan to get Stanton interested in her ... telling Stephen Colbert she's just going to start telling everyone they're dating -- like, speaking it into existence.

"Like, the world will know that I like this person. I will know that I like this person. And then, it'll be in his subconscious. And then, he will attract me to him!"

Haddish's obsession with Stanton seems pretty real ... 'cause when Colbert told her about the home run hitter's famous physique -- she got graphic!!!

"I just want him to pick me up and go like this," Tiffany said, pretending to burp a baby ... "'It's going to be OKAY. It's going to be OKAY. Shh. Shh. Shh.'"

Bad news for Tiffany, Stanton's been rumored to be dating model Chase Carter.

The Empire is striking back again, but not in a galaxy far, far away ... Darth Vader's in action high above the Clifton Suspension Bridge in the UK.

The hot air balloon is repping the Dark Side on the first day of the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta in Bristol, England. The event is Europe's largest annual gathering of the big-ass gasbags, attracting more than 130 hot air balloons from around the world.

Clearly, Vader stands out among the pack ... and has us clamoring for many more 'Star Wars'-themed balloons to battle it out in the sky.

It looks like that's not going to happen, though ... so we'll settle for the other cool hot air balloons in the shape of bears, owls, and koalas.

But, we all know who their father is ... and Mark Hamill agrees.

Aaron Carter is a danger to himself and others, or so someone in his family thinks ... which is why they got cops to race to Aaron's home, but Aaron says he's totally fine.

Cops performed a welfare check Wednesday morning at Aaron's Lancaster crib because -- according to law enforcement sources -- a family member had called saying she was concerned about statements Aaron made last week. That was around the time he broke up with his GF, Lina Valentina.

We're told the person who called cops was concerned Aaron was going to take his own life or hurt someone else. They also feared he was doing drugs and could overdose.

Our law enforcement sources say Aaron -- who started dating Lina last Fall -- wasn't home when cops first arrived but he ultimately came to meet with them, and they determined everything was okay.

Sources close to Aaron tell us the singer believes his pissed off ex may have had a hand in getting the cops sent to his house. We're told Lina was staying with Aaron even after they broke up last week, but he kicked her outta his crib Wednesday and she flew into a rage.

Aaron's attorney tells TMZ ... Aaron wants a smooth breakup, but threatened legal action against Valentina if she doesn't back off.

Danny Trejo is the hero L.A. needs ... or at least one grandmother in L.A. desperately needed when her car flipped over trapping her infant grandchild in the backseat.

Danny was in the right place at the right time Wednesday afternoon when a driver allegedly ran a red light, and smashed into another vehicle ... which ended up on its roof.

The 75-year-old was in the area running errands when he came across the accident, and ran to assist. While grandma was stuck in the driver's seat of the flipped car, she kept screaming for Danny and 2 other Samaritans to help the baby boy, who was strapped in the car seat in the back.

Trejo says he climbed into the wreckage and -- with the help of the other heroic bystanders -- was able to pull the infant to safety.

The grandmother had to be freed from the wreck by firefighters. Both grandma and kid were reportedly transferred to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Trejo described helping the little boy to stay calm by saying "OKAY, we have to use our superpowers. So, he screamed 'superpowers' and we started yelling 'superpowers.'" I said, "do this, with the muscles. He said 'muscles.'"

Yeah ... there's that warm, fuzzy feeling.

Shawn Mendes has just one 21st birthday wish ... and it's not at all what you'd expect from a young pop superstar now legally able to drink.

Shawn was leaving the Jack's Wife Freda bistro in NYC Thursday with his new girlfriend, Camila Cabello, when we wished him a happy bday and asked him how he was planning to celebrate.

Mendes didn't dish out any party plans ... instead, he calmly revealed to our camera guy that simply letting him stroll down the sidewalk whilst holding hands with his dame would be a birthday wish come true.

Our photog complied ... mostly. C'mon, he had to try to get SOMETHING.

As we've reported ... Shawn and Camila have been getting hot and heavy over the past month, including a steamy makeout session in Miami Beach just over a week ago.

Before that, they were spotted smooching and snuggling on the West Coast.

Steven Slater -- the ex-JetBlue flight attendant who went on a profanity-laced tirade in 2010 and deployed the emergency slide -- has gone missing in Mexico ... TMZ has learned.

The Chula Vista Police Department tells TMZ ... Slater was reported missing Tuesday in Tijuana after friends pled with the public just days prior to help find him. Cops say friends told them they had not been able to get in touch with Slater since Sunday.

On that day, Slater -- who moved to Tijuana about a week ago -- posted on Facebook he was visiting a monument in the city but has not been seen or heard from ever since.

We're told cops have notified Mexican authorities about Slater's disappearance.

Slater made headlines 9 years ago after a heated argument with a passenger aboard a flight from Pittsburgh to NYC. His viral moment came after swinging open the jet's side door, deploying the emergency chute and sliding down with beers in hand.

The f-bomb meltdown was triggered after a passenger wanted to get her luggage from the overhead compartment as the jet was taxiing. He pled with her to sit but she smacked him. He asked for an apology. She refused and that's when he lost it.

According to witnesses at the time, Slater got on the intercom and cursed the entire plane before signing off with, "I've been in this business for 28 years. I've had it. That's it." After sliding down the chute, he hopped on the AirTrain shuttle and drove home, where he was ultimately arrested.

Willie Nelson worried his fans when he abruptly canceled his tour due to a "breathing problem," but the singer's only taking a temporary break and will return soon ... TMZ has learned.

Willie's rep tells us his tour schedule is typically 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, but his recent medical issue -- which they believe is linked to his history of emphysema -- is requiring a little extra R&R this time.

We're told he's only officially canceled the next 6 stops on his tour ... but plans to return to the stage September 6 in Gilford, NH and continue on with the 20+ shows scheduled after that.

As for the breathing problem ... Nelson's rep says it was not a medical emergency and he wasn't rushed to the hospital or anything like that. He just needed rest and is back in Texas to see a doctor.

We're told he's currently taking it easy and already feeling better.

Willie's 86, though, and this isn't the first time he's had to cancel some shows due to his health. He missed the Outlaw Music Festival last summer and had to cancel some dates earlier in 2018.

Mike Posner's epic trek across the country is derailed thanks to a rattlesnake bite so bad he had to be airlifted to a hospital to save his life.

The singer-songwriter was making his way across Colorado Wednesday and had already racked up 16 miles on the day with a goal of 8 more when he got bit by a baby rattler. We're told the snake jumped out of nowhere on his path and sunk its fangs into his left leg.

According to Mike, "That venom is no joke!"

This pic of his feet shows where the venom caused swelling from the bite on the ankle -- pretty gnarly.

Fortunately, he says he got to the hospital and received the anti-venom in time, courtesy of an emergency helicopter ride and the expert staff -- but he'll be laid up for a few days and won't be able to continue his walk for several weeks.

On the bright side, Posner says he's enjoying the hospital's AC and a nice bed ... which he hasn't had in quite a long time. He vows to get back on "The Walk" as soon as he's able, though.

We had Mike on "TMZ Live" in April and he broke down the purpose of his journey, which was inspired by the deaths of his father and Avicii. He started on April 15 in New Jersey, and hoped to make it to Venice, CA by October.

He's releasing new music along the way whenever he crosses a state line ... most recently, “Prince Akeem” ft. Wiz Khalifa as he got to Colorado.

The bite is definitely a setback, but Mike insists a lil ol' snake isn't gonna stop him.

Snooki storming out of the "Jersey Shore" house and threatening to quit was caused by some bad blood with her old foe, Angelina Pivarnick.

Sources close to production tell TMZ ... Snooki and Angelina got into it HEAVY while shooting 'Family Vacation' Tuesday night. The fight escalated slowly inside the house before the ugly scene in the video TMZ first posted of Snooks marching out, screaming.

We're told Snooki decided to remain at the house after her blowup. She returned to shooting Wednesday with the rest of the cast, sans Mike "The Situation," of course. It at least appears the women have made up. We got footage of the gang walking along the pier, and Angelina and Snooki cordially walked side by side and chatted.

Our sources say their altercation stemmed from some past beef with Angelina bubbling up, and though producers tried to calm the situation for a while ... Snooki ultimately bolted.

We broke the story, she was heard yelling, "Leave me the f**k alone, this is why I didn't want to do this s**t. Leave me alone!" before adding ... "I hate this s**t" and saying she wanted to go home to her kids.

We're told it's been harder and harder to get the cast together with their growing families and personal drama in their lives, and Snooki's meltdown was just more proof of the challenge.

The Jonas Brothers are back on the road, picking up where they left off nearly 6 years ago when they abruptly split -- but there are a few very attractive changes this time around.

Nick, Joe and Kevin Jonas finally kicked off their highly anticipated Happiness Begins tour Wednesday night in Miami. The trio's set blended new and old school -- from "Cool" and "Rollercoaster" to "Fly With Me," "Love Bug" and, of course, "Year 3000."

The wives also brought their talents to Miami. Priyanka Chopra, Danielle Jonas and Sophie Turner all proudly posed in front of a "J-Sisters" backdrop while rocking JoBros gear. We're guessing they had premium seating to soak up all the preshow chants of "JONAS! JONAS! JONAS!" inside the packed AmericanAirlines Arena.

Daddy Yankee, Jordan McGraw and Bebe Rexha also made appearances but the spotlight belonged to the bros -- who came out for an encore and performed their smash hit, "Sucker."

The trio and their ladies are traveling with their furry family members as well. Between Sophie, Joe, and Priyanka having extra friendly travel companions, it's a pretty packed flight.

Colton Haynes and Jeff Leatham are one giant step closer to being single again after hammering out a divorce settlement.

According to docs, obtained by TMZ, Colton's attorney, Marci Levine, filed the settlement Wednesday in L.A. Superior Court ... a little more than a year after he filed for the divorce.

You'll recall, the "Teen Wolf" star and celeb florist Jeff had only been married for about 6 months when they split up. Sources connected to the ex-couple say they did not have a prenup, but they were still able to reach an amicable split.

We're told there was no hassle over finances -- both sides agreed to keep their earnings during the brief marriage separate. One source told us by the end of the settlement negotiations it was as "amicable" and "peaceful" a divorce as can be ... especially in Hollywood.

It didn't last long, but boy did it start spectacularly. Remember, Jeff proposed in Cabo, complete with fireworks and a video appearance from Cher. Their celeb-packed wedding ceremony in Palm Springs was officiated by Kris Jenner and guests included Sofia Vergara, Joe Manganiello and Jesse Tyler Ferguson.

Shawn Rhoden isn't letting his rape case get in the way of his training ... the 2018 Mr. Olympia hit the legendary Gold's Gym in L.A. this week -- and thanked all his fans for their support.

The 44-year-old bodybuilder is accused of raping a female bodybuilder at a Utah hotel back in October 2018 ... but he's adamantly denied the allegations, pleading not guilty in court and releasing several denial statements.

But, the guys that run the Mr. Olympia contest have barred Rhoden from competing in the 2019 tournament regardless, saying they were breaking off their relationship with the superstar until his case played out in the court system.

Rhoden fans have started a change.org petition to get the Mr. Olympia honchos to change their mind, and more than 17,000 people have already signed it.

Rhoden clearly appreciates the love ... because after we got him getting in a lift in at The Mecca in Venice -- he shouted out his supporters and gave us a bunch of thumbs ups.

Rhoden also says he has yet to hear from the Mr. Olympia competition since the petition has gained traction.

By the way, the gym we spotted Rhoden at is one of the most legendary in the country ... some of the greatest bodybuilders ever -- including Arnold Schwarzenegger in his prime -- have pumped iron there.

Krysten Ritter's a proud new mom after giving birth to a baby boy, and she gave him a name fit for a superhero ... or a rock star.

According to the birth certificate -- obtained by TMZ -- the "Jessica Jones" star's firstborn child's name is Bruce, and the little guy has 2 middle names ... Julian Knight.

The baby's father is Ritter's longtime boyfriend, The War on Drugs' frontman, Adam Granduciel ... whose real last name is Granofsky. So, their son's full name is Bruce Julian Knight Granofsky.

As for the little guy's name ... it could be related to Ritter's Marvel Comics connection. Jessica Jones is a Marvel character much like The Hulk -- aka Bruce Banner -- but that's clearly rank comic book fanboy speculation on our part.

Or, maybe she and her baby daddy are fans of DC Comics hero Bruce "The Batman" Wayne? Yeah, we're stretching.

More likely is the fact Krysten's a big Bruce Springsteen fan. Sometimes it's just the simplest option.

According to his birth certificate, Lil Boss (that's officially his nickname now) arrived July 29 at L.A.'s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Ritter first revealed she was pregnant in February, and showed off her baby bump at a premiere event for season 3 of 'JJ.'

Congrats!!!
