Simone Biles' dog breeder is receiving a ton of backlash for cropping her new Doberman Pinscher's ears and docking its tail ... telling TMZ Sports he's gotten death threats over something he says is "common practice."

We spoke with the owner of Regal Empire Dobermans after fans and PETA slammed Biles and her husband, Jonathan Owens, for buying a puppy that underwent the procedures.

William Regal is also dealing with the blowback ... telling us people have made seriously menacing comments toward him, and have attempted to have his company shut down.

The murders of Rob and Michele Reiner have shaken America, and the Epstein files dump is far from complete. So we gotta ask ...

Walter Cronkite, who was once regarded as "the most trusted man in America" when he was anchoring the evening news on CBS, is pictured with Jeffrey Epstein in new photos released by the feds.

The photos show the legendary newsman -- who anchored such historical events as the JFK assassination and moon landing -- sitting in a room with Epstein and an unidentified man. Walter is leaning forward in an armchair, talking with Epstein and the other guy, who is seated on a couch.

In between the men is a tray of food and drink and a bunch of magazines spread out across some ottomans.

There is nothing risqué or questionable going on ... and no one else is in the photos.

Hugh Jackman is a Bondi Beach local when he's back home in Australia, which is why the terror attack at the famous gathering spot has him reeling.

We got the movie star at LAX on Friday, and our photog asked Hugh how he's processing the tragic events at a place he holds near and dear to his heart.

Hugh says the whole thing is just devastating ... and not just for him, but for countless others who were affected by the mass shooting and its aftermath.

With the massive information dump of the Epstein Files from the DOJ Friday, we're getting a close look at the various high-powered figures who surrounded the disgraced financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein … including former presidents.

Bill Clinton is seen in a few new pics … he's reclining in a hot tub with another person, whose face is obscured by a black box. Another pic shows the former president sitting in what appears to be the cabin of an airplane, with a young-looking female sitting on his lap with her arm around his shoulder.

As you know, the U.S. Dept. of Justice began releasing the long-awaited Epstein Files on Friday, the final day of a 30-day period the agency was compelled by Congress to produce all materials related to the investigation of Epstein -- with victims' identities and details redacted.

Jeffrey Epstein was convicted in 2008 on state charges in Florida of soliciting the prostitution of a minor in a plea deal and served a year in prison. In 2019, he was arrested on federal charges of sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors. While awaiting trial in New York City, he killed himself in his cell.

Timothée Chalamet still won’t confirm or deny he’s EsDeeKid ... but he’s absolutely riding the chaos, teaming up with the masked singer himself for one heck of an epic collab!

The Oscar-nominated star just dropped a wild video collaborating on the Liverpudlian’s "4 Raws Remix," releasing both the track and visuals with them appearing together -- which might put the rumors to bed ... except it’s 2025 and A.I. can stitch anyone together🤷‍♀️.

Either way -- undercover British rapper or not -- Timmy put his rap game all the way out there, name-checking his "Marty Supreme" film, flexing about stacking $100 mil, and even shouting out GF Kylie Jenner with the line, "It’s Timothée Chalamet chillin', tryin’ to stack $100 million / Girl got a billion."

What started out as alleged shoplifting turned into attempted murder when an Ohio man pulled a gun on a police officer inside a Walmart Thursday ... and the whole thing was caught on tape.

Watch this insane video ... 21-year-old Shane Newman appears anxious, chewing on his gloved fingers while sitting inside Walmart's loss prevention office around 1:40 PM. You can see him sneakily turn his back to the camera, and when he turns back around ... he produces a gun.

While aiming the weapon at an officer off-camera, you can hear what appears to be the click of Newman pulling the trigger, but the gun never goes off.

Bombshells will likely be cropping up for days after a massive dump of Epstein Files began to be released Friday ... and now we have some high-profile names never-before associated with the disgraced financier.

In a new pic released by the U.S. Department of Justice ... Michael Jackson and Diana Ross are pictured on a plane with Bill Clinton and another person whose face is redacted.

It's not known whose plane they were on or where they were going.

While Diana and Bill flash smiles, Michael stares blankly with Bill's hand draped over the King Of Pop's shoulder.

Calories don't take days off, and neither does Ana de Armas ... she was snapped with her waist looking snatched while heading to a gym Friday in Los Angeles.

The "Knives Out" star couldn't have been any cuter ... She carried a Louis Vuitton monogram fortune cookie charm and wore a pink crop top with black leggings and New Balance sneakers.

Jeffrey Epstein framed nude photos of Ghislaine Maxwell and other women and displayed them inside his Palm Beach home ... and you see his overly-sexual interior decorating on full display, and new video from inside his pedophile lair.

The video is part of the Epstein Files release, and the grainy, old school footage is a tour through his Florida home ... it's like "MTV Cribs" but with a convicted pedophile.

Epstein's got a framed photo of Ghislaine on a beach, plus other nudes of some females who look like models. There's even a miniature replica of his plane, the Lolita Express.

Strangely, there appears to be a dental chair and equipment in one of the rooms ... similar to what we saw on his private island.

Never-before-seen photos show late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein in his element ... snuggling up to a very young-looking female on a sofa.

The images are from the Epstein Files being released by the U.S. Department of Justice ... and there are several photos showing Epstein cozying up to an unidentified female on a couch ... it's unclear if she's underage.

Epstein has his arms around her, and they are horizontal, side by side on a couch ... wearing clothes. Her face has been redacted to protect her identity, indicating the government considers her a victim.

12:31 PM PT -- Puka Nacua was just hit with a hefty punishment for criticizing refs this week ... as he was just fined $25,000 over the controversial comments.

Another day, and Puka Nucua is back in hot water ... this time after taking a shot at the referees on social media after the Rams' 38-37 loss on Thursday Night Football, only to quickly delete the post!

The Rams' star receiver -- who had a huge game on the field -- posted the message on X just a few minutes after his Rams squad lost to the Seahawks on a two-point conversion in overtime, which didn't come without controversy thanks to a ruling on the play that resulted in points for Seattle.

"Can you say I was wrong. Appreciate you stripes for your contribution. Lol." Puka wrote, referencing something he recently said during his stream with Adin Ross, where he accused refs of making calls simply to get some TV airtime.

Nick Reiner is spending his days in an L.A. jail, dealing with the aftermath of the violent murders of his parents, and he's not been able to fully process it ... TMZ has learned.

A source with direct knowledge tells TMZ ... Nick is not reeling in grief. Rather, he's "in a fog"  ... in no small part due to his medical condition and the meds he's taking.

Our source goes on to characterize Nick as "calm," "cognizant," and "dazed" -- adding Nick isn't even close to processing what happened.

TMZ broke the story ... Nick had been diagnosed with schizophrenia. In the weeks leading up to the murders, we're told he was out of control. Our sources characterized Nick as "erratic" and "dangerous." As we reported, he was recently treated at an L.A.-based rehab facility that specializes in mental health and substance abuse and was under the care of a psychiatrist.

1:05 PM PT -- Sources close to the couple tell TMZ they have NOT broken up and are just fine.

It's over between Steven Tyler and his longtime girlfriend Aimee Preston ... TMZ has learned the couple has called it quits on their relationship.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge tell us Steven and Aimee have broken up ... though it's unclear when they separated and what led to the split.

Steven hired Aimee as his personal assistant way back in 2012 ... they started dating in 2014 but waited until the 2016 Oscars to go public with their romance, holding hands at Elton John's AIDS Foundation Oscars viewing party.
