Check out the clip ... Chelley offers some non-committal answers at first -- telling the hosts they aren't moving in together, but adding Ace is doing well.

OG YouTuber Ryan Higa disclosed he stopped partaking in "YouTube Rewind" (YouTube's annual recap) because YouTube allegedly lied to him. Higa said on Twitch, "I specifically remembered leaving mid-shoot because they lied to me. When I specifically said I don't want to do something and that's why I wasn't going to show up in the first place, and then they try to convince me once I'm on set in person, that's scummy."

The vehicle owner told BBC he couldn't even enjoy his trip last month ... because he could see he was racking up fines via a CCTV camera trained on his car hoodwinking.

Chuck Potthast's son apparently found his body ... and he told the 911 operator his dad was bleeding heavily -- and didn't look alive.

We've obtained the audio of the 911 call ... which begins with a man identifying himself as Chuck's son -- and telling the 911 operator his father's lying in the bathtub and bleeding from the chest.

Kyle Richards' friendship with country singer Morgan Wade has inspired years of dating rumors ... and now Kyle is admitting to having a secret relationship following her split from Mauricio Umansky.

Kyle never lists a name -- or even a gender -- for this mysterious former lover, but the clues she gives to Erika Jayne on the latest "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" make it seem obvious.

Kyle says she cared about them "very much" ... check. They avoided public scrutiny ... Morgan opted not to appear on Season 14. And the show's obsession with the relationship is what led to its demise. Basically checks all the boxes.

Erika seemed to put the pieces together, saying, "I think you've been as forthcoming as you can be."

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released a fresh batch of photos Friday sent to the committee by Jeffrey Epstein's estate ... with images featuring President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton.

Woody Allen, Bill Gates, Steve Bannon and Richard Branson are also in the trove of photos, which includes a shot of Trump-branded condoms. The lurid photo appears to show a pile of wrapped condoms with Trump's face on them and the words "I'm HUUUUGE!" written across the bottom.

In a black and white photo, Trump is seen towering over what appears to be 6 young women wearing Hawaiian leis, whose faces have been redacted. In another, a much younger Trump greets a smiling blonde woman, while Epstein appears to lead him through a crowd.

We caught up with Joe Simpson at the Giving A Smile Foundation Gala in Beverly Hills Thursday night ... and we asked him if he could see Jessica and Eric jumping back into a relationship after announcing their split early this year.

Simpson says you never know what may come in the future ... which certainly sounds like a "maybe" to us -- though given the messy nature of the breakup, we wouldn't say it's super likely.

Bijan Robinson is expressing his regret over repeating the controversial name of a playground game during an interview ... saying even though he didn't mean any disrespect by uttering "smear the queer" on live TV, it shouldn't have come out of his mouth.

The Atlanta Falcons star was chopping it up with the Prime Video crew after his team's big win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on "Thursday Night Football" ... when Richard Sherman praised his ability to avoid being tackled throughout the contest.

Robinson had 93 yards and a touchdown on the ground ... and 82 yards through the air in the 29-28 win.

Taylor Swift broke down in tears while discussing the fatal attack on young fans in the UK last year, just before meeting with survivors and their families.

The vulnerable moment came as she opened up about the horrifying event -- which left 3 dead in the town of Southport -- during her 'The End of an Era' docuseries that began streaming on Disney+ Friday.

Check out the emotional clip -- tears well up in her eyes and her voice breaks as she discusses the Liverpool attack. She cries ... "I’m gonna, like, meet some of these families tonight and put on a pop concert, you know?" She was hours away from taking the stage at London's Wembley Stadium, where she played a record-breaking 8 during The Eras Tour in 2024.

She's then seen walking backstage in her sparkly, bright orange "The Man" outfit -- worn during the first era of her setlist -- breaking down even further alongside her mom, Andrea, who is patting away tears with a tissue.

It's safe to say Todd Bowles wasn’t in a great mood after his Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost on a last-second field goal to the Atlanta Falcons ... going on an expletive-laced postgame press conference -- calling his team’s performance "in-f***ing-excusable."

Bowles met with the media after Falcons kicker Zane Gonzalez lifted Atlanta to a 29-28 win to send the Bucs to a 7-7 record following "Thursday Night Football," and he wasn’t hiding his feelings.

“It's inexcusable," Bowles said. "We don't make excuses. You gotta f***ing care enough where the sh*t hurts. You gotta f***ing care enough where the sh*t hurts. Gotta f***ing mean something to you. It's more than a job, it's your f***ing livelihood. How well do you know your job? How well can you do your job? You can't sugarcoat that sh*t.”

Diddy's twin daughters went out in L.A. Thursday night and painted the town red -- literally! -- wearing matching red dresses as they hung with the likes of Kim Kardashian.

TMZ obtained footage of the 18-year-old siblings -- Jessie James and D'Lila -- looking all dolled up as they arrived at Cade Hudson & Michael Braun's Christmas bash in West Hollywood. The duo hopped out of a black SUV and walked hand-in-hand into a mansion where the soiree was in full swing.

They were joined by not only Kim K ... but several other big-name celebs such as Kaia Gerber, Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton, Kathy Hilton, Emma Roberts, Mauricio Umansky, Lori Loughlin, Tyga, Kristen Stewart, Tiffany Haddish, Jeff Beacher, Ashlee Margolis and Brooks Nader. And Kim was stunning as always in a form-fitting black gown -- which, of course, showed off her cleavage.
