Guess Who This Baby In Heels Turned Into!
Before this adorable baby in her diaper was trying on her momma's high heels, she was just heading to the movie sets to watch her parents act, messin' around with her younger bro and growing up just outside of Paris.
Back in 2014, this beauty of a gal made her film debut in the movie "Tusk" alongside Justin Long, however most recently ... she starred on HBO's "The Idol" with The Weeknd. And, don't be surprised if you see her on the cover of a magazine looking gorgeous as ever!
Need one more clue ... ask the pirate!

Keke Palmer Holds Son Post-TRO Against Baby Daddy Flower Bouquet Sent Over
Keke Palmer is holding on tight to her son after getting temporary sole custody of him amid her legal fight with her baby daddy -- this, of course, after accusing him of DV.
The actress appeared to be on set Saturday afternoon in West Hollywood, where two notable things happened -- one, she was photographed carrying her nearly 9-month-old, Leo, while in costume ... and was smiling from ear to ear, while even firing off a selfie of the 2 of them.
There was a woman nearby, whom Keke eventually handed Leo over to -- presumably a nanny of some sort -- while she went back to work. Like we said, KP is beaming here.
The other standout moment from this time on the job ... she received an intricate bouquet of flowers from somebody, courtesy of a local business called La Fleu Eclose ... and this particular arrangement is one of their pricier items for sale -- it's called "My Queen."
The bouquet comes with a crap ton of roses -- between 50 to 100 -- and a nice little crown ornament on top to boot. There was a card attached that Keke was seen reading ... and she looked to be a bit emotional as she went through it. No word on who it was from.
This is the first time we're seeing Keke out in public since her bomb allegations this past week -- namely, claiming Darius Jackson had abused her on and off for well over a year ... including an alleged incident she says happened as recently as last weekend.
Keke also uploaded a bunch of still images taken from in-home security footage that she claims shows Darius roughing her up on a handful of occasions, dating back to 02/2022.
She said she feared for her safety, and as a result was granted a temporary restraining order against Darius. Keke was also granted temporary sole custody of their kid ... a separate filing that came shortly before her TRO hit the court system.
Darius has remained mostly mum through all this ... not having officially acknowledged her claims, other than to say he loves his son and that he'll "see you soon." A hearing to sort all this out is scheduled for early December ... where he'll presumably get a chance to respond.
Keke and Darius had Leo in February ... and had been a couple for a good while before that. He's not famous at all -- but has drawn attention to himself and their relationship.
Infamously, he criticized her outfit choice during an Usher concert ... which got a lot of blowback -- even, seemingly, from Keke herself. Since then, though -- they appear to have made up and gotten back together ... until now, that is. Safe to say, they're on the outs.

Bebe Rexha Nicki Over Cardi in Female Rap ... But That's Just My Opinion
Bebe Rexha has waded into the never-ending debate over who's the better femcee between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B ... and from her POV, it's no contest when it comes to raw talent.
The singer sounded off -- in a very respectful way, of course -- on an IG Live she did this weekend ... where she and a pal went back and forth on the merits of the argument, and BR ended up landing mostly Nicki's camp in terms of who she prefers as the queen of rap.
Check out how she breaks this down ... Bebe seems to think Nicki's longevity and quality as been top-notch for a long time, plus she admires the fact that she writes her own rhymes.
Bebe's friend here jumps to defend Cardi in the same breath, noting she's quite talented too ... but concedes that it's well-known she doesn't always put pen to paper for her own lyrics, and might outsource that part of the job at times.
Both of them say this isn't meant to pit the two ladies against each other -- which they say happens far too often, for no reason other than to rile up one another's respective bases.
With that said ... Bebe makes it clear, she simply likes Nicki's rapping ability more -- but notes she does appreciate Cardi's personality and authenticity more than anything.
SEPTEMBER 2018
As we all know ... Nicki and Cardi have had beef in the past, and every now and then -- there seems to be jabs taken from either side online ... but more so among their fans.
With that said, Cardi and Nicki continue to be among the most popular female MCs today.

RFK Jr. Played Footsie with First-Class Floor ... On American Flight to Dallas
-
Exclusive
- 294 shares
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. let it all hang out during a flight nearly two weeks ago -- and by that, we mean from the ankles down ... where he got very acquainted with a messy aisle floor.
The presidential candidate -- who's running as an independent -- was on an American Airlines plane on Nov. 2 ... where we're told he was traveling from Portland to Dallas for what appears to have been official political business, during which this eye-popping pic was snapped by conservative commentator Justin Haskins.
11/12/23
Haskins -- who works for a think tank called The Heartland Institute -- took this photo of RFK Jr. getting up and walking to the bathroom ... only he did it completely barefoot!
Indeed ... it's a bit surprising, considering the ground he's treading on isn't all the clean -- at least that's what Haskins said when he and his buddies talked about this on their "In The Tank" pod on Friday. According to him, there was a bunch of food and debris down there.
Listen to how Haskins puts it ... sounds like he was pretty surprised to see Bobby pull this as nonchalantly as he did, and he jokes this might even torpedo his campaign prospects.
Time will tell on that front, we suppose ... but man, talk about getting comfy, huh? 😅

Bill Burr Wife Nia Seems to Flip Off Trump ... At UFC 295 Event
Bill Burr's wife doesn't seem to be a fan of Donald Trump's -- that is, assuming this middle finger she fired off was for him ... and it very well may have been.
Nia Hill accompanied her comedian husband to the UFC 295 event Saturday night at NYC's Madison Square Garden -- and during one of DT's on-camera moments on the jumbotron ... she flipped the bird, which many have taken to be directly targeted for Trump.
Here’s the video for those interested. pic.twitter.com/5EWADkfNCt

Frankly, it's hard to tell if this F-U was, in fact, intended for The Donald or not. It looks like Trump is in the same aisle as them, but slightly angled ahead of them as they're seated.
Nia throws up two single-finger salutes right at the UFC team pans to them ... but it seems like she's perhaps doing it straight to the camera itself, as opposed to DT who's to her right. Whatever her intention was, right-wing Twitter certainly took it as an insult to the ex-Prez.
As a result, he's getting a ton of hate from conservatives ... 'cause they see his wife's would-be gesture toward Trump as a reflection of his own politics -- even though he holds that pretty close to the vest.
Burr occupies this nebulous comedy space ... at times, he comes out swinging against "wokeness" but also rails on right-wingers just as much. Dude's an enigma, for sure -- and more importantly, there aren't many interviews he's done where he straight-up craps on DT.
Now, he's in the crosshairs of MAGA loyalists ... who are still very much with 45. The UFC crowd also appeared to welcome his presence ... as he rolled in with Dana White, Tucker Carlson and Kid Rock.
Trump goes to a lot of the UFC fights post-presidency, so if you're anti-Trump ... be prepared to see him now and again at some of these. The guy likes to show up and show out.

Barry Manilow I Didn't Come Out 'Til 2017 ... 'Cause I Just Didn't Care To
Barry Manilow came out as gay a few years ago -- a decision he pinned on fans at the time ... but now, he says he just didn't think it was a big deal to announce it to the world.
The singer got into this topic yet again this weekend with Chris Wallace on his Max show ... where the former Fox News anchor asked why'd he taken so long to confirm he was a gay man, despite having been in a relationship with his manger, Garry Kief, for years.
Before answering Chris' million-dollar question -- which he actually addressed head-on back in 2017, when he officially came out -- BM explained he'd actually been married to a woman years ago ... even though he says he knew he was attracted to men from a very young age.
Now, in terms of why he came out when he did ... Barry's answer in this sit-down differs from what he first said 6 years ago -- at the time, he said he worried he'd turn off his fans.
While talking to Chris, however ... he suggests he simply didn't give a rip -- saying the idea of "coming out" in some grand, public way never even crossed his mind ... as he was content with his life. That changed, though, when he actually married Garry in 2014.
As soon as word got out, the headlines started flying ... and Barry eventually came clean, which got a lot of support. With that said, he's got kind words for his husband here.

Rihanna & A$AP Rocky Step Out Separately Again in L.A. ... Amid Flacko's Criminal Case
A$AP Rocky is in hot legal water right now as he fights criminal charges in court -- and you'd think his baby mama, Rihanna, would be right by his side in public ... but she isn't.
The couple stepped out in front of cameras twice this week -- right on the heels of Rocky's high-profile preliminary hearing in a DTLA courthouse Wednesday -- and on both occasions ... they were not together. And for this weekend, they weren't even in the same part of town.
On Thursday, RiRi was photographed hitting up the San Vicente Bungalows in West Hollywood with some gal pals in tow, whereas Rocky was in a different part of WeHo ... unaccompanied by Rihanna, and instead being trailed by his own crew of fellas.
Both of them looked fairly neutral on Thursday ... but come Saturday, they were seen stepping out again (separately) and seemed a little more chipper -- well, AR was anyway.
Rocky and Rihanna were both dressed to impress, but it was only him who flashed a grin as he strolled along a street following what we're told was a late-night studio sesh in WeHo. He's got an album that's supposedly due out soon, so it makes sense he's working.
Rihanna, on the other hand, was on the opposite side of Tinseltown Saturday ... hitting up her favorite restaurant, Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica -- which she always frequents.
Like we said, she didn't look all that happy ... sporting sunglasses and a somewhat serious mug. Considering prosecutors are going after her man on gun charges, that also lines up.
As we reported ... one of Rocky's former A$AP Mob members, Relli, took the stand and testified that Rocky had shot him in 2021 -- this after a falling out and alleged face-off. Relli even claimed that Rocky had threatened to kill him before allegedly pulling the trigger.
Rocky's attorney, Joe Tacopina, grilled Relli on cross ... but his client is due back in court later this month to see if this thing's gonna go to a full-blown jury trial or not. AR left the building in a very good mood and emanated confidence as he signed autographs.
The same can't be said for Rihanna's demeanor here, though ... she looks kinda glum.
They're usually putting on a united front for everyone, but at the moment ... there appears to be some distance, at least on the face of things. Here's hoping everything's alright. 🤞

Travis Kelce Adios, Argentina ... Dips After Kissing T-Swift at Concert
update
12:17 PM PT -- And just like that ... Travis Kelce is outta here.
The Chiefs tight end boarded a private jet Sunday to fly out of Argentina and presumably head back to the States. His team doesn't have a game until the 20th, but he's probably expected at practice and team meetings in the coming days.
No sign of Taylor here to send him off ... but ya gotta imagine they had a great night together after a huge PDA moment the day prior. Dude's got a pep in his step, for sure.
Don't cry for Taylor Swift in Argentina ... she had an amazing show Saturday night, after which she passionately made out with her man.
We've seen Travis Kelce and Taylor hold hands, wrap their arms around each other, etc, but this is the first big PDA moment. She races to Travis as she leaves the stage and they embrace and make out in a "get-a-room" type way!
As for why there seemed to be electric passion between the 2 ... well, Taylor changed the lyrics to "Karma" ... the OG version -- "Karma is the guy on the screen/Coming straight home to me." The updated version -- "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs/Coming straight home to me."
Travis is stoked when he hears the lyrics ... you see it in his face and he begins vibing to the song.
Taylor doesn't need it, but Travis sorta served as her hype man during the show ... getting the frenzied crowd into an even more intense frenzy.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
BTW ... Taylor's dad was at the show and gave his stamp of approval to the relationship by wearing a Chiefs' lanyard. It's a big deal 'cause he's an Eagles fan.
This is the first show Travis has attended since their relationship went public, although we knew for weeks before it was the real deal.
When your worlds collide. Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift in the building on our last night in Buenos Aires. 🤯 pic.twitter.com/BhhmSpdoAo

T&T have been making the rounds in Argentina the last few days ... they were holding hands Friday during a romantic dinner at the swanky Four Seasons in Buenos Aires.
Travis doesn't have a game this weekend so he was clear to fly to his girl. Long-distance relationships are tough, but private jets and other perks make it a lot easier for sure, so good luck you two!

Kim Zolciak & Kroy Biermann Anniversary Dinner Amid Divorce ... Hit Pause on Life Drama
Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann had a good weekend -- they were chowing down and looking awfully cozy during their 12-year anniversary ... even though they're getting divorced.
The ex-'RHOA' star was documenting all the festivities on IG, including a pit stop to one of Morgan Wallen's shows in Atlanta ... and a one-on-one dinner she shared with her estranged hubby at an Italian joint in nearby Smyrna, GA -- which was romantic as hell.
Take a look for yourself ... they had a mini buffet of food in front of them, and a fair amount of drinks too, which they partook in with the restaurant staff -- all of which KZ filmed.
She made no mention of their personal problems here -- relationship, financial or otherwise -- and instead commented on how good the grub was. She also didn't acknowledge Kroy's presence explicitly ... but the dude was definitely enjoying himself/the moment.
If a picture's worth a thousand words ... there are a lot of telling frames in these clips -- at first glance, it would appear they're on good terms at the moment ... despite a tumultuous past few months as they navigate their divorce and money problems, which are linked.
Like we said, they were celebrating the anniversary of their wedding date back in 2011. And even though they seem to be heading toward Splitsville ... they felt it was worth honoring.
No word on whether this means they're making up (again), but it's nice to see 'em happy.

76ers Star Kelly Oubre Jr. Struck by Car in Philly Hit & Run ... Hospitalized, Broken Bones
Kelly Oubre Jr. is in the hospital and on the mend after getting struck by a car in a hit-and-run in the city he plays for -- and while it sounds like he'll recover ... he's banged up.
According to the Philadelphia 76ers -- on which Oubre is a starter -- their 27-year-old star player fell victim to a reckless driver Saturday night in the Center City neighborhood of Philly ... where Oubre was out and about, it seems, during a night off in the team's schedule.
The details of what exactly happened are a little murky at the moment ... but it sounds like he got hit at the corner of Broad and Locust Street, with the vehicle in question fleeing the scene without a trace. As a result of the hit, Oubre is said to have sustained some injuries.
Shams Charania reports the SF/G is dealing with broken ribs, bruises and other abrasions ... and he's currently hospitalized. Team personnel, including Prez Daryl Morey, showed up last night to visit him ... obviously, he's going to be out for a while.
Prayers up to @KELLYOUBREJR! Here’s a pic he took with my cousin last night. Y’all know him as a great hooper, but anyone that’s close to him knows he’s one of the best people you’ll ever meet pic.twitter.com/ezHDIdBA4M

Cops are investigating the hit-and-run ... so far, no suspects or persons of interest have been ID'd. Shortly before the incident, Oubre was photographed posing with a young fan.

Samuel Haskell Jr. Seen Dumping Apparent Body ... In New Surveillance Vid
-
Exclusive
- 1.4K shares
Samuel Haskell Jr. was caught on camera dumping what very well may have been the torso of a body police found in Encino, CA Wednesday ... and TMZ has the video, which aligns almost perfectly with video of Haskell with identical bags at his home.
We've obtained new footage which shows Haskell pulling into a parking lot in Encino late Tuesday afternoon in his white Tesla, casually parking by a dumpster and opening up the back to grab what appears to be a large, heavy garbage bag. Haskell struggles as he places it on his shoulder, and then hurls it into the trash bin.
We obtained two clips -- one from a slightly closer angle, and another capturing the scene from a little further away.
This is the same location, and apparently the same garbage bin where a homeless person found a dismembered human torso in a strip mall parking lot early Wednesday.
Cops swarmed the area and quickly arrested Haskell for murder. His wife, Mei, and her parents are all missing. It's unclear whose torso it was ... but we know it was a woman's.
Now here's how the dots all connect. TMZ posted video earlier today showing Haskell at his home Tuesday afternoon as some day laborers drive up and then help Haskell carry big garbage bags -- seemingly identical to the one he later tossed -- into a nearby truck.
One of the workers told NBC4 LA ... Haskell told them there were rocks in the 3 bags, but they were suspicious because the contents were soft and squishy. They left, but drove just a block and decided to open a bag, where they found body parts, including a belly button.
The workers returned to Haskell's house a few minutes after they left, returned the bags and placed them on his driveway, and returned payment. They then went to cops.
Now this is critical -- Haskell then left his home in his Tesla around 4:22 PM, and at 4:45 PM (when this new footage starts) ... you see him pulling in and dropping a large trash bag in the bin. That bin is 6 miles from Haskell's house, so the time matches up.
No word on where the other bags might've gone.
Haskell is the son of a former powerful Hollywood agent, Samuel Haskell Sr. ... who used to rep the likes of Dolly Parton and a slew of other A-listers before retiring from WME in '05.
He continues to work with Dolly on TV specials of hers, but hasn't commented on his son's arrest just yet. Haskell Jr. remains in police custody on $2 million bail.

Timothee Chalamet Celebrates 'SNL' Hosting Gig at After-Party GF Kylie By His Side
Timothée Chalamet took on hosting duties on 'SNL' Saturday night, and GF Kylie Jenner was front and center supporting him.
Kylie was at the show and the after-party at STK in NYC.
Other stars who showed up ... Dakota Johnson, Phoebe Bridgers, Sophie Turner, Bo Burnham, Jon Hamm, Anna Osceola and others.
Timothee's monologue was pretty funny ... celebrating the end of the SAG-AFTRA strike and the ability to hawk his wares to the public.
And then a pretty hilarious rap song about people -- yeah, TC, you -- who have baby faces. Timothee has some chops, and got assists from Marcello Hernández, Keenan Thompson, and Punkie Johnson channeling her inner Nicki Minaj.
This is Timothée's second run as host of "SNL," and he did a sequel to his 2020 skit with Pete Davidson, playing "$mokeCheddaDaAssGetta" as he celebrates 50 years of hip hop.

Leonardo DiCaprio I'm 49 and Still King of the World!!! Celebrates 49th Birthday with Celeb Pals
Leonardo DiCaprio partied it up with his famous friends for his 49th birthday party -- and it was off the hook!
The party went down at an event space in Bev Hills and the guest list is exhausting to type ... Kim Kardashian, Jay-Z, Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Salma Hayek, Snoop Dogg, Irmelin Indenbirken, Soleil Moon Frye, Scott Eastwood, Casey Affleck and Caylee Cowan, Kate Beckinsale, Zoe Saldaña and Marco Perego, Jordan Masterson, Luka Sabbat, Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, Rita Ora and Taika Waititi, Beck, Chris Rock, Corey Gamble, Emile Hirsch and Lukas Haas.
Kate was a glittery standout with ginormous diamonds caressing her waist.
Besides the glimpse we got inside, the ever-elusive Leo evaded paparazzi in a pretty spectacular way -- given it was his party!
We also don't know if his current GF, Vittoria Ceretti was there, but it's a good bet since we didn't see either of the 2 they came together.
BTW ... Salma had a busy night ... she arrived after attending the Baby2Baby Gala -- a charity for underprivileged kids -- where she received the Giving Tree Award.
Happy BD Leo!

'Black Panther' Stuntman Trick or Treating w/ Family ... Before Fatal Crash
-
Exclusive
- 861 shares
The "Black Panther" stuntman who was killed in a car crash last week had just wrapped up a night of Halloween fun before the fatal wreck ... TMZ has learned.
Taraja Ramsess' mother, Akili, tells us her son was in the car with 6 others that fateful night -- including his ex-wife, Selena, and a mix of 5 children ... most of whom he'd had with her, and a newborn he shares with his current partner, Lisa, who was at home.
Anyway, we're told Taraja and Selena had just finished taking all the children trick or treating in the Atlanta area and were on their way home when they got in the accident.
As we reported ... Taraja died at the scene, as did two of his daughters -- a 13-year-old and an 8-week-old little girl. His 10-year-old son later died after being taken off life support.
Selena and two daughters she shared with Taraja survived -- they all suffered non-life-threatening injuries, although one of the daughters is still in the hospital. In terms of how Akili heard the tragic news ... she tells us Selena called and was inconsolable.
Akili says it was the worst night of her life, and the heartache of losing her son and grandchildren was compounded by not immediately knowing who was alive and dead.
Apparently, first responders had taken everybody to different hospitals, and it created a confusing/chaotic situation to try and track down everyone in the aftermath. Akili adds, "It's impacted our family. It's now part of us -- our family needs some time to heal and recover and go on with our lives best we can."
Obviously, the entire family is distraught in the wake of all this ... and we're told everybody is trying to cope as best they can in the wake of such an awful catastrophe that claimed so many lives.
Now, in terms of what exactly caused the crash -- remember, Taraja slammed into a tractor-trailer while coming off the freeway -- Akili isn't ready to discuss it. It's under investigation.

Playboy Mansion Prized Parrot Flies the Coop ... Fire Dept. Swoops In!!!
-
Exclusive
- 70 shares
The Playboy Mansion has historically been home to a helluva lot of hot people -- but it's also housed some creatures of another feather ... and one of those bastards escaped!
Here's the deal ... the famed estate -- once owned and occupied by the late Hugh Hefner -- has long had a crap ton of winged beasts living on the grounds. It's a little unclear how long they've been around, but guests who've swung by over the years have seen them.
Among the many birds are parrots -- not to mention other exotic ones, like toucans for example -- and one of the Pollys actually made a brazen run flight for it 2 weeks ago.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the L.A. Fire Dept. responded to the L.A. County Club Oct. 29 to help rescue a parrot that had fled from the Mansion -- and fluttered on over to the neighboring country club. We're told they believe it got out with the help of a strong gust of Santa Ana winds.
Anyway, a fire truck ended up showing up to deal with it ... cat-and-ladder-style, 'cause our sources say the bird ended up flying into a nearby tree -- where first responders attempted to coax it down using a little H2O. Not a little actually -- quite a bit -- 'cause we're told they ended up using about half a tank of water to "make it rain" atop the tree, in hopes that it would force the parrot to come down to their level. Unfortunately, the bird only went higher.
Eventually, we're told the Fire Dept. had to pack it up and leave -- 'cause the golf course was closing, and they weren't any close to getting the bird down. So, that's what they did.
As far as how this feathered tale ends ... one eyewitness tells us the parrot did end up coming down on its own once everyone left -- but no word on whether it was officially reunited with its owners. We've reached out to the current lord of the manor, Darren Metropoulos, but so far ... no word back.
