Hoops, they did it again ... lovey dovey couple Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet packed on the PDA as they watched the Los Angeles Lakers take on -- and lose to -- the Minnesota Timberwolves Wednesday night and looked as in love as ever.

Check out the pics ... the Kylie Cosmetics founder beamed as she sat alongside her actor beau at the Crypto.com Arena ... frequently grabbing onto his left arm and hand as adorable displays of affection.

Timothée returned the favor at one point, placing his hand on grinning Kylie's thigh.

Denzel Washington’s May is off to a diabolically dismissive start -- he’s been straight-up snubbed by the Tony Awards, and TBH, that’s just borderline criminal!

The 78th annual Tony Award nominations are out, and despite his powerhouse Broadway return in "Othello," Denzel was shockingly snubbed in the Best Actor category, while fellow movie star George Clooney waltzed in with a nom.

Denzel has been nominated for a Tony twice before, so he'll probably be just fine -- but his costar Jake Gyllenhaal was also left out for his role in the current Shakespearean revival ... and Robert Downey Jr. missed out on a nom for "McNeal," in his Broadway debut.

BTW, we got NFL player-turned-actor Devale Ellis and his wife out in NYC on Wednesday -- the 2 of them are co-producing "Othello" -- and they had nothing but glowing things to say about DW and JG.

Gwyneth Paltrow says she felt like she was being shaken down during her infamous ski crash trial ... adding the very concept of getting sued by someone who was totally at fault stands out as everything wrong with the American legal system.

The actress and businesswoman sat down for a conversation on "The World's First Podcast with Erin and Sara Foster" ... and, she said she found the trial just so ridiculous -- feeling she needed to fight back instead of letting Dr. Terry Sanderson take advantage of her.

Gwyneth says Sanderson being allowed to sue her -- even though he ran into her -- proves the legal system is broken beyond repair.

Stephen A. Smith's gotta be scratching his head this morning after President Donald Trump ranted to him about Harlem and Black people ... when Stephen A. asked him about Harvard.

The bizarre exchange went down Wednesday night when the Prez phoned into News Nation for a chat with Stephen A., Chris Cuomo and Bill O'Reilly. Smith fired off a question about POTUS withdrawing billions of dollars of federal grants to Harvard University -- and, for some reason, Trump said, "Well, I say this, we had riots in Harlem, and frankly if you look at what's gone on ... and people from Harlem went up and they protested."

You gotta see this, because things got even more awkward when President Trump said, "I got a very high Black vote. You know that."

Criticism of Bill Belichick's girlfriend is now coming from his own family -- the football legend's daughter-in-law just publicly shaded Jordon Hudson for her antics during that now-infamous CBS interview.

Jennifer Schmitt, who's married to Belichick’s son Stephen, lobbed the barbs Hudson's way in an Instagram comment on Wednesday.

The post she commented on featured a video of Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski defending Hudson's seemingly overbearing behavior during Belichick's sit-down with Tony Dokoupil.

Vince Vaughn didn’t exactly have a movie-worthy NYC cab moment -- more like a fumble getting into his ride, and it was a sight to see!

The "Wedding Crashers" actor's ride home from Quality Italian with wife Kyla Weber turned into a full-blown mission Wednesday night -- starting with a swarm of paps and fans tailing him from the restaurant to the cab ... where the chaos continued.

As you can see, Vince  clearly didn’t have the legroom he needed, twisting himself into the cab like a game of human Tetris... and even bumping his head a bit before sliding in. Worth noting, Vince is 6-foot-5, so it's a tight squeeze any way you cut it.

Donald Trump may have just endorsed his successor ... 'cause he says Stephen A. Smith has all the necessary skills to be POTUS -- most especially, entertainment value.

The president gave a phone interview on NewsNation Wednesday night ... chatting with Bill O'Reilly, Chris Cuomo and Stephen A. -- when Bill asked him what he thought of Stephen taking a shot at the highest office in the land.

ICYMI ... last month, Smith blasted the Democratic Party and claimed he had "no choice" but to consider running for the job in 2028.

Bill Belichick and Jordon Hudson aren't gonna be able to sweep their dumpster fire interview under the rug ... 'cause the couple's CBS sit-down got the Hollywood treatment on John Mulaney's Netflix show.

The hilarious segment happened on Wednesday's "Everybody's Live" ... with Richard Kind taking on the role of the legendary coach -- and Fran Gillespie portraying his polarizing girlfriend.

The whole thing kicked off just over 10 minutes into the episode ... with Kind decked out in a cutoff, ragged crewneck and Gillespie in a grey sweatshirt.

The NYPD busted a boobalicious babe accused of trying to swipe a woman's engagement ring -- and the sexy suspect even got on her own wanted poster!

Police officials released the poster this week and it shows buxom brunette Lucie Lora posing for a sizzling selfie, which looks more like an ad for a strip club.

And it apparently worked ... because the NYPD arrested Lora on Wednesday and booked her for attempted robbery.

China seems delusional on the issue of COVID-19 all these years later ... ‘cause the government is now falsely claiming the deadly virus originated in the United States instead of China’s Wuhan lab —- the most universally accepted theory.

Chinese officials penned a paper pointing an accusatory finger at the U.S. for facilitating the spread of COVID -- an infectious respiratory disease that quickly passes from person to person.

In the essay, the officials wrote ... “The U.S. should cease from shifting blame and evading responsibility, stop finding external excuses for its internal malaise, and genuinely reflect on and overhaul its public health policies.”

Hulk Hogan's got a new wrestling league ... and he's hopeful he won't be the only major celeb running wild at its inaugural event later this summer -- telling TMZ Sports he wants Donald Trump there too!!

The WWE legend announced this week he, Eric Bischoff and famed coach Israel Martinez have joined together to start Real American Freestyle -- and on Wednesday, he told us he wants POTUS ringside when it all officially kicks off on Aug. 30 in Cleveland.

In fact, Hulk -- who was one of Trump's biggest supporters during his run for president in 2024 -- said he plans to make a phone call to the White House soon to personally extend the invite.

American singer-songwriter and actress Jenny Lewis was just a teenager when she played Haley -- the tough girl from Nevada, traveling cross-country with her father -- in the 1989 family adventure film "The Wizard."

Joining Lewis on set included Fred Savage as the protective brother who flees Utah and heads to California, Corey ... and Luke Edwards as the sad and moody brother striving to win the Video Armageddon, Jimmy.

Her popularity in the late '80s also stemmed from her role in the film "Troop Beverly Hills."

Jenny is the lead singer of the indie rock band, Rilo Kiley, which is set to reunite at the Just Like Heaven music festival next month!
