Britney Spears -- or River Red, as she'd like to be called -- swapped outfits 3 times Sunday night, dancing to her heart's content ... just days after making the apparent name change.

The singer showed off her signature moves Sunday evening ... grooving to 3 separate tracks, complete with costume changes, too.

In her caption, Britney says she can't act "too kooky or silly like kids" because people will call her "CRAY CRAY" -- adding she's sharing her dancing because "every person I call TAKES 9 RINGS TO ANSWER" ... and, "I bet after I post this my security answers after 2 RINGS."

The freestyle session came after a now-deleted post from last week, showing off a picture of Mars and writing, "I changed my name to River Red" ... and saying "don't underestimate the power of purity."

She also changed her name on IG to match the announcement.

Fans are scratching their heads at the supposed name change -- we are too -- but it might simply be her take on Mars, known as the red planet.

There's also a little known 1998 film called "River Red" -- a disturbing family drama -- but that seems much less likely.

As we reported, eyewitnesses told us Britney's hubby Sam Asghari stormed out of a dinner in Woodland Hills this month when she was acting "manic" at their table.

Brett Maher can't catch a break ... even the governor of Texas jumped in to pile on the Dallas Cowboys kicker after he missed yet another PAT on Sunday night.

Greg Abbott's trolling came just minutes after Maher had his second quarter point after attempt blocked in Dallas' playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers.

"I swear," Abbott tweeted. "I can kick as good as the Dallas Cowboys kicker."

Of course, Abbott is paralyzed from the waist down ... after he sustained significant injuries when an oak tree fell on him during a morning jog in 1984.

The missed PAT was Maher's fifth in his last two games -- remember, the 33-year-old whiffed on four extra point attempts against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Cowboys' Wild Card Round win.

To his credit, Maher did come back to make two field goals in the game ... hitting a 25-yarder in the third quarter and a 43-yarder in the fourth. Abbott didn't care to comment on those.

The kicks, though, ultimately weren't enough to get Dallas a win ... they dropped the game, 19-12.

Pamela Anderson claims Tim Allen once showed her his penis, unsolicited -- a revelation just now coming to light in her new memoir ... but he's calling BS.

The iconic actress and model shared the flashing allegation in an excerpt from her book, 'Love, Pamela,' which Variety obtained. In it, PA details an event that she claims happened in 1991 on TA's sitcom at the time, 'Home Improvement' ... when she was 23 years old.

She writes, "On the first day of filming, I walked out of my dressing room, and Tim was in the hallway in his robe. He opened his robe and flashed me quickly — completely naked underneath."

Pam adds, "He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked. Now we’re even. I laughed uncomfortably." Tim, for his part, tells TMZ ... "No, it never happened. I would never do such a thing." So, he's straight up saying it didn't happen ... period.

Now, if this happened in '91 -- as she claims -- then it would've presumably been during the first season of 'HI' ... which started airing that same year. Pam was on a lot of episodes in Season 1 as 'Tool Time' girl, Lisa, and even appeared in the pilot.

Pam went on to costar in the second season of 'Home Improvement,' and made a cameo as her original character in season 6. Her other show, "Baywatch," was taking off in the early '90s ... as was the rest of her career.

This is one of the biggest bombshells that has surfaced from Pam's upcoming memoir, which is hitting shelves at the end of the month. Other headlines have touched on the fact that she believes Tommy Lee was her one true love, and that the sex tape ruined their marriage.

Amy Winehouse's dad is backing the actress playing his daughter in an upcoming biopic ... even though a bunch of folks think she's anything but a doppelgänger for Amy.

Marisa Abela scored the coveted role in "Back to Black" ... but when the first images of her on set were released this month -- shocker -- social media was flooded with hateful comments.😲

Angry fans slammed Marisa as a low-budget Amy who looks nothing like the late singer.

But Amy's father, Mitch Winehouse -- who's also administrator of her estate -- disagrees, telling TMZ ... Marisa's a great choice for the role, even if she doesn't look exactly like Amy.

The way Mitch sees it, Marisa is Marisa and Amy is Amy ... so it's no big deal if they aren't mirror images.

Eddie Marsan is playing Amy's dad in the movie, and Mitch notes Eddie doesn't look anything like him either.

Amy's dad says there's too much emphasis on looks ... because there's plenty of Hollywood examples of actors not looking like their real-life characters.

The one that comes to mind for Mitch is "Night and Day," where the good-looking Cary Grant plays famous composer and songwriter Cole Porter, who was never considered handsome.

The Hollywood Hills mansion where the influencer group The Hype House lived and shot much of their content is looking for a new tenant -- it's up for rent, but it's got a hefty price tag.

Our real estate sources say the former Hype House property is currently listed for short or long-term leases ... and it's going for $50,000 per month.

Now, you do get a ton of house for that rent check ... the pad is 16,000 square feet with a whopping 10 bedrooms and 16 bathrooms.

Plus, it's decked out with a movie theater with a 160-inch screen and an 80-foot-long nightclub with a full bar, plus a gym, pool table, ping pong table, 3 sports bars and a high-speed elevator.

The estate also features a huge outdoor deck with an 80-foot-long swimming pool and spa ... not to mention state-of-the-art lighting, a sound system and a recording studio.

It was practically built for social media peeps, as it's already been home to TikTokers Thomas Petrou, Cole Hudson, Mia Hayward, Calvin Goldby, Patrick Huston, and Nicholas Austin.

TMZ broke the story ... the landlord is suing some Hype House members, claiming they moved in on a one-year lease but bounced 5 months early, and left behind $300,000 in property damage.

Not to worry, the crib's been cleaned up since then ... and now it's back on the rental market.

Luke Rockhold has two hands and he wants to use them to punch Jake Paul.

Hard.

TMZ Sports ran into the 38-year-old (retired, for now, at least) former UFC champion at LAX on Friday ... and asked him about the Problem Child's foray into MMA.

"Stop trying to fight little dudes. F***ing [155] pounders. You're a middleweight. If you want to fight a middleweight, I got hands. We can do anything we want. I really don't care. I'd beat that guy in my sleep."

As we previously reported, 26-year-old Paul recently signed a multi-fight, multi-year deal with PFL ... and wasted no time by calling out Nate Diaz for a boxing and MMA fight.

Diaz hasn't yet accepted the challenge ... and if he doesn't, Rockhold is more than ready to step in.

"I got some freedom to do some things and as you can see, I like throwing hands these days," Luke said, adding, "fight people your own f***ing weight. Straight up. And champions, a real champion, a real contender. A real someone who can put you on your ass. not old guys, 55-year-olds, or lightweights. You can't even get above a welterweight, dog, So, step up."

Of course, Jake's 6-0 as a professional boxer ... with wins over Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley (twice) and Anderson Silva.

Paul also recently started training in jiu-jitsu ... and was an amateur wrestler through high school.

Luke and Jake have some history. Paul was critical of Rockhold after his last UFC fight in August, when he lost a decision to Paulo Costa.

Jake tweeted, calling Luke's performance "dog s**t", saying it was an "embarrassment for the sport."

President Biden's hand-signed memoir -- gifted to the nurse who took care of his son before he died of cancer -- is up for grabs, giving buyers a chance to own the exclusive note from the Prez.

The signed copy of Biden's book, "Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship, and Purpose" is currently listed on the Moments In Time auction site.

The site acquired it from a collector, who bought it directly from Beau Biden's nurse, Roz, and, it comes with a $28K price tag.

We're told the then-former VP personally wrote a message to Roz, in 2017, for taking care of Beau while he was battling cancer. The note also mentions Howard, another nurse who assisted Beau.

Joe wrote, "I know what you did for my son. I learned after the fact. You are both the definition of generosity. Roz- if they have angels in Heaven they are all nurses. Thank you both and keep the faith." It's dated December 19, 2017.

As we reported, the younger Biden died of brain cancer in 2015 when he was 46.

As for the book, it's said to be the only substantial handwritten document from the now President. He's signed many things in office, but we're told he typically only signs his name.

American actor Oz Perkins was 26 years old when he was cast as Dorky David -- the introverted Harvard Law student and one of the only students to befriend Elle Woods -- in the comedy film "Legally Blonde" back in 2001.

Perkins shared the big screen role with Hollywood legends including Selma Blair as Warner's old/new girlfriend, Vivian ... and of course Reese Witherspoon as the law school success, Elle Woods.

Oz has been in other popular films including "Six Degrees Of Separation" with Will Smith and "Not Another Teen Movie" with Chris Evans.

James Cameron joined an exclusive club Sunday -- one that includes only himself ... he's the sole director in history with three movies that have crossed a huge money milestone.

That benchmark is the $2-billion line, which his latest film -- 'Avatar: The Way of Water' -- crossed Sunday ... now marking the third such flick of his to have achieved it at the international box office. His other two crown jewels ... 'Avatar' ($2.9B) and 'Titanic' ($2.1B).

Only three other films have passed $2 bil ... all of 'em Disney-owned. There's 'Avengers: Endgame' (#2, $2.7B), 'Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens' (#4, $2.071B) and 'Avengers: Infinity War' (#5, $2.052B). 'Avatar 2' is now the 6th highest grossing movie ever.

Prior to this weekend's accomplishment, Cameron shared the space with the Russo Bros. ... who directed both 'Avengers' films -- but he's surpassed them and is in a league of his own.

Remember, 'Way of Water' only came out in theaters a month and change ago -- so it's reached this massive amount of ticket sales in a record time ... although, the Russos technically got there faster. Whereas it only took 37 days for 'A2' to cross the $2-billion finish line, 'Endgame' swallowed that up back in 2019 ... ringing that bell in an astounding 11 days.

Safe to say, JC's latest installment has become profitable ... and there'll surely be more sequels. That wasn't necessarily guaranteed though -- in fact, the flick had a slow start when it opened on Dec. 16 ... and there were doubts if it had the legs to go to the distance.

Amy Adams got a fairytale ending in her latest film, and it seems she's mirror-mirroring that off camera too ... hitting the slopes with her real-life family, and having a magical time.

The actress -- who recently starred in Disney's 'Disenchanted' -- was out skiing Sunday with her husband, Darren Le Gallo, and their daughter Aviana. They hit up the Mountain High Resort in Wrightwood, CA ... about a two-hour drive Northeast of central Los Angeles.

Amy probably would've gone unrecognized if she'd kept her goggles on -- with the low-key outfit she was wearing, she pretty much looked like any other female skier on the mountain.

However, it looks like she stopped at one point and popped off the eyewear for a little phone time ... and, at that point, it became clear a star was in the mix. Check out the photos -- Amy seems pretty jazzed to be out there ... flashing a big smile while she was on the horn.

Speaking of AA and DLG's kid ... she actually has a mini cameo in 'Disenchanted,' which is the long-awaited sequel to 2007's 'Enchanted' -- where Amy plays a storybook princess type who's zapped into the real world. In part 2, Aviana briefly appears in a town square scene.

Damar Hamlin showed up for his guys in person Sunday -- the first time he's been back in a football stadium since his life-threatening injury ... and it was quite a moment to behold.

The free safety rolled into Highmark Stadium before kickoff, being escorted by security on a team cart ... where he seemed to be trying to lay low with a pair of shades on and a jacket as well. It became clear though, that DH was there -- and utter excitement filled the venue.

He was taken to a private suite, with cameras and reporters following him almost all the way through the door. Damar didn't really stop and chat much -- he seemed way more interested in locking down his bird's-eye view of the field and watching the Bills take the field.

Once he was situated and away from the frenzy, Damar did motion to the home crowd from his window. He was seen throwing up a heart sign gesture with his hands and also hyped up the spectators ... who were roaring for him. The broadcasters found it touching too.

This is an especially big day for Buffalo. They're facing the Bengals -- the same team they were playing a few weeks when Damar went into cardiac arrest following a hard hit after a routine play ... which sent the game into an indefinite pause before it was scrapped.

Both teams have continued to play well since, and now ... they're meeting up once again. The Bills are currently down by double digits, but there's still a fair amount of time left.

The days of 'Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah' at Disney parks in the U.S. are about to be long gone -- which is why folks are forming massive lines this weekend for a final go-around.

Tons of Disneyland & Disney World patrons posted photos/videos Saturday and Sunday that show them waiting for their chance to hop on a log and cruise through Splash Mountain one final time before it officially closes down for a re-imagining starting Monday.

The classic fan fave ride is going to be reworked into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure -- a riff off the movie 'The Princess and The Frog,' which features a New Orleans swampy setting. That version is expected to reopen sometime in 2024 ... so SM will go dark until at least then.

In light of this hiatus, ticket-buyers are flocking to the attraction like never before, with lines that stretch into entirely different sections of the park. We're talking hundreds of people.

Unclear how long the wait times are, but we imagine a couple hours at least. The riders don't seem to care though -- frankly, this is the last opportunity anyone is going to have to enjoy Splash Mountain as it originally was ... and it seems Disney fiends want their fill.

Splash Mountain has been around since the late '80s, and it's become a staple for many in any Disney park visit. The water ride is based on the 1946 live action/animated film 'Song of the South' ... and includes all the 'Br'er' characters from the movie -- Rabbit, Fox, Bear, etc.

The reason Splash Mountain is being remade at all is because the old movie and character have been called problematic -- namely, that they romanticize the old South and play into stereotypes about African-Americans, etc. It hasn't aged well in the 21st century.

Chrisean Rock got into a physical altercation shortly after announcing she was pregnant with Blueface's child -- this while trying to get to her alleged soon-to-be baby daddy.

TMZ has obtained video that was taken early Saturday morning in Chatsworth, near Blueface's home. We're told this fight you see here on camera followed what eyewitnesses claim was a bum rush attempt by Chrisean on Blue ... dropping in on him at his house.

You see, we're told Blueface was throwing a party at his crib to ring in his 26th birthday (Friday) ... and that Chrisean crashed the shindig in an effort to pull him away.

What you see here is what we're told happened shortly thereafter ... it seems Blueface was trying to get away in his own vehicle -- with a gaggle of people following him, including Chrisean -- and it all erupted in a massive brawl on the street down the block from his pad.

In the clip, you see Chrisean -- wearing the same pink track suit from earlier in the day -- getting Blueface to herself on one side of a car (presumably hers). We're told she was trying to get him inside to leave with her. Instead, she threw hands with 2 ladies on the scene.

Chrisean finds a way to her feet -- and in the end, eyewitnesses tell us she and Blue left in different vehicles. Unclear if they met up somewhere after, or went their separate ways.

Of course, this is disturbing on many levels. For one, it's another instance of violence between Blueface, Chrisean and/or people in their orbit. More sad, though, is the fact that Chrisean says she's got a bun in the oven -- so this is super dangerous in that regard.

Remember, Blueface has denied the kid is his ... and also said he and Chrisean were done. It seems she might've wanted to patch things up -- which doesn't seem to have ended well.

Selena Gomez recently said she was single, but we're not so sure about that ... and neither is Drew Taggart based on these photos.

The singer and Chainsmokers star walked hand-in-hand Saturday night in NYC, where they were on a dinner date at an Italian restaurant called Torrisi in SoHo. Check out the PDA for yourself -- definitely clear signs they're together ... but no goodbye kiss, it seems.

These shots show Selena parting ways with Drew ... and he sees her to her car, where she was flashing smiles for paps standing by. This marks at least their 2nd date in a week.

Last Sunday, they were seen out together doing a little bowling in Brooklyn. The pics in that instance didn't show anything touchy-feely ... but eyewitnesses supposedly saw them locking lips. Shortly after, Selena took to IG to seemingly deny rumors they were a thing.

She wrote, "I Like Being Alone Too Much," while adding the hashtag #iamsingle.

BTW, SG might well be ... relationship statuses these days are often ill-defined and hazy -- so maybe she and Drew are just enjoying each other's company without throwing labels on.

Still, it would seem like she's, at the very least, romantically involved with him -- and with a hand hold like this ... it kinda screams "taken!" The last two guys she was dating, publicly anyway, were The Weeknd and Justin Bieber ... but those were both several years ago.

Lisa Marie Presley's celebration of life at Graceland took place today, as her family members, friends and countless Elvis Presley fans gathered to honor her.

Priscilla Presley arrived with her family, including son Navarone Garibaldi, daughter Riley Keough and Lisa Marie’s ex-husband, Michael Lockwood.

It's unclear if Lisa's daughters Harper and Finley were in attendance for the public service ... or if the twins only attended the private family memorial that took place earlier this weekend.

Lisa's close friend Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, arrived a few minutes before the Presley family.

Austin Butler, who played Elvis in the new movie, arrived with Kaia Gerber. Austin's sister Ashley Butler is said to have joined him to pay respects as well.

Lisa's father Elvis' solemn song, "He Touched Me" played while the memorial live stream waited to begin, as well as a touching duet of Lisa and her father singing “Where No One Stands Alone.”

The memorial started with a performance of "Amazing Grace," sung by Jason Clark & the Tennessee Mass Choir.

Producer Joel Weinshanker then gave the opening remarks. He said Lisa Marie left instructions on her wishes for her memorial, and stated "don't make it sad."

During a tribute, former Mayor of Memphis AC Wharton listed off a lot of the famous children born after Lisa Marie, and spoke of Lisa as being the one that came before them all ... calling her a bright light and, "the image of a king."

Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins then performed his band's 1998 song "To Sheila."

Sarah Ferguson spoke of her friendship with Lisa, and reminisced on how they called each other "Sissy."

Alanis Morissette performed her 2021 song "Rest" in honor of Lisa.

Talent manager Jerry Schilling spoke of an 18-year-old Lisa telling him, "I need to have a meeting with you. I need a job, I know people don’t think I’m responsible, but I really am."

He says they then went to an exclusive place to have a meeting, "The Hamburger Hamlet." He and the audience chuckled.

He continued, "She became my secretary, and every time I would say that she would correct me and say “I’m your ASSISTANT,” which made the crowd laugh again.

Priscilla then read a beautiful personal poem titled, "The Old Soul," saying "... a broken heart was the doing of her death, now she is home where she always belonged, but my heart is missing her love.”

Riley Keough was listed to speak, but instead, a note she wrote, titled "A Letter to My Mama," was read on stage by her husband, Ben Smith-Petersen.

Beyonce most certainly lived up to her nickname, "Queen Bey," during her Dubai performance Saturday night ... and we got the pics to prove it.

Check out these new images, obtained by TMZ, showing Bey in a yellow sequined gown with a feathered cape -- which was fit for a queen!!! She was surrounded by dancers in large red dresses and a Middle Eastern orchestra.

Bey then changed into a gold body suit with a matching corset and long train. She also wore a red dress with a different corset, stockings and gloves.

Safe to say ... Bey brought the house down at the star-studded event ... Kendall Jenner, Liam Payne and Ronan Keating were just a few of the celebs on hand.

Everyone got to enjoy Bey's 90-minute set that included her biggest hits ... "Crazy In Love," "Naughty Girl", "Halo" and "XO." The show ended with a huge fireworks display.

As we reported, Bey hit the stage at Atlantis The Royal hotel in the United Arab Emirates after an almost 5-year hiatus. The singer was paid a whopping $24 million to be the centerpiece of the hotel's launch party. Recording devices were banned, but many in the packed crowd didn't follow the rules and leaked footage of the event on social media.

The concert was also a family affair ... Jay-Z was present along with Bey's parents, Tina and Mathew Knowles.

Bey/Jay's 11-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, and 5-year-old twins, Rumi and Sir were there as well. Ivy even jumped on stage to perform a duet with her mom, singing a song from the album, "The Lion King: The Gift."
