The "Big Brother" alum shared a hospital bed selfie Monday, writing... "Wink if you’re freshly repaired 😉👅"

"Today I had a planned cervical spine surgery to relieve pressure on nerves in my neck that have been causing pain and neurological symptoms for a while," he wrote. "The procedure went exactly as expected, no surprises, no drama (for once 😅), just very precise work by an incredible medical team."

He added, "They removed bone and tissue that were compressing the nerves, giving my spinal cord, disks, and radiating nerves the space it needs to heal and function properly. Now comes 4 weeks of healing, rest, physical therapy, and being nicer to my body than I usually am. MERRY CHRISTMAS! 😜"

Imani Dia Smith -- a former child actor who starred in "The Lion King" on Broadway -- has died.

According to a press release issued by Middlesex County, New Jersey, prosecutor Yolanda Ciccone and Edison Police Department chief Thomas Bryan, Smith was found Sunday in a residence in Edison, N.J. with stab wounds. She was reportedly pronounced dead at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick.

The press release says Smith's boyfriend, Jordan D. Jackson-Small, was arrested and charged in connection with the stabbing death.

Small, 35, was reportedly charged with first-degree murder, second-degree endangering the welfare of a child, third-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and fourth-degree unlawful possession of a weapon.

According to Playbill, Smith played Young Nala in "The Lion King" from September 27, 2011, to September 23, 2012.

There's even more Epstein documents coming -- more than a million in fact ... that's according to a post Wednesday from the U.S. Department of Justice.

The DOJ reports the FBI and Attorney for the Southern District of New York have given them the new trove of documents to "review for release."

They wrote, "We have lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions to protect victims, and we will release the documents as soon as possible. Due to the mass volume of material, this process may take a few more weeks. The Department will continue to fully comply with federal law and President Trump’s direction to release the files."

This new stockpile of files could contain names and images of celebrities never-before linked to Jeffrey Epstein.

Alaska Airlines doesn't give in to purr-pressure -- that's what Alexandra Compton found out on a recent flight home for the holidays ... and she told TMZ it might be because they're dog people.

Alexandra -- a 35-year-old bartender now known as '2 Cat Karen' -- got into a standoff with airline staff in Las Vegas when they refused to let her board with her 2 cats in the same carrier.

She tells TMZ ... on December 21 she was travelling from Vegas to Portland to go back home for the holidays on a flight with her cats Phoenix and Blaze. According to Alexandra, the airline caused a fuss over the cats being in the same carrier, but she's travelled with Alaska Airlines in the same carrier many times before.

"A man in charge came down from an office and didn’t even look at the cats," Alexandra told us. "He made the decision I needed to book another seat and get another carrier or I couldn’t fly with them. Because he didn’t look at the cats, it made me think he was a dog person. It was giving he had a golden retriever at home."

In his first interview since being released from the same prison that houses Diddy, former NBA player Sebastian Telfair tells TMZ what it was like being locked up with the music mogul.

Telfair chatted with our cameraperson just hours after being released from FCI Fort Dix, revealing it was rough for him getting locked up after living such a successful life, but he "couldn't imagine how Diddy felt."

Still, Telfair says the Bad Boy cofounder is making the most of it and staying in good spirits.

He said, "Diddy's holding it down. He's doing what he gotta do. And where he's at, they're going to help him."

LWD -- livestreaming while driving -- is why TikToker Tea Tyme is behind bars on Christmas Eve ... nearly 2 months after she allegedly ran over a pedestrian, cops have her in custody.

Tea Tyme -- or Tynesha McCarty-Wroten, IRL -- was arrested Tuesday in Zion, IL and booked for 2 felonies ... reckless homicide and aggravated use of communications resulting in death.

As that second count describes ... cops say Tynesha was livestreaming Nov. 3 in the suburb north of Chicago while she was driving, and ran into 59-year-old Darren Lucas as he walked across an intersection.

Diddy's legal team is ripping Judge Arun Subramanian, accusing him of crossing a line with the 50-month sentence ... and acting more like a juror than a judge.

Diddy filed a new appeal late Tuesday evening, demanding his conviction be overturned, and his release from prison ... or, at the very least, his sentence be lightened. While his lawyers have previously filed multiple appeals, this one singles out Judge Subramanian for acting as the "thirteenth juror" in Diddy's criminal trial.

In the docs, lead appeal attorney Alexandra Shapiro claims the judge's "draconian" 50-month sentence is based on the conduct for which the actual jurors acquited Diddy -- namely, the racketeering and sex trafficking counts.

Shapiro claims Subramanian incorrectly said during sentencing he could consider Diddy's behavior related to the more violent charges -- even though he'd been acquited of them -- which she calls a violation of Diddy's constitutional rights.

Jenna Haze is getting emergency medical care after posting alarming and bloody images of herself, which prompted an early morning visit from cops ... TMZ has learned.

Early Wednesday, the retired pornstar's IG stories were filled with photos and videos showing blood dripping from a wound on her hand. She also showed herself coughing and spitting up in a bathtub.

Jenna really set off alarms for her followers when, in one video, she accused an ex, saying, "Before I die, I want every single person to know the abuse I suffered."

L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. tells TMZ they got several calls to do a welfare check on Jenna, and deputies did go to her home just before 5 AM. We're told an ambulance took a female patient to the hospital.

Veteran comedic actor Pat Finn -- who starred in sitcoms like "The Middle" and "The George Wendt Show" -- is dead from a cancer battle ... TMZ has confirmed.

Family sources tell us Pat passed away Monday evening at his home in Los Angeles, and he was surrounded by his family.

Pat came up in Hollywood around the same time as his good friend Chris Farley. He and Chris attended Marquette University in 1987, played rugby together there ... and were roommates in Chicago when they both joined the Second City comedy troupe.

A former Rhode Island mayoral candidate wasn't very diplomatic toward a cop during a recent traffic stop — calling the officer a "d--k" while dropping the ol', "Do you know who I am?" line.

It all started on December 18 ... Maria Bucci, the current chair of the Cranston Democratic City Committee, was pulled over by a police officer in East Greenwich, RI, and the situation quickly turned ugly.

Making matters worse, the officer switched on his bodycam, capturing every moment of Bucci's terrible attitude. As you can see, Bucci was difficult right from the start, making faces at the officer as he tells her she smells like booze and was driving erratically.

Bucci then told the cop to stop embarrassing her and her friend, who was with her. After the cop says he's just doing his job, Bucci did her, "Do you know who I am" routine.

The cop says he doesn't know her, and then warns her not to name drop because it's not going to work with him.

9:49 AM PT -- Sources close to Britney tell TMZ that the guy she was kissing is her guard / helper and they are just friends. The kisses were just in fun.

Well, look what Britney Spears has under the tree this year ... a new dude who looks a lot like her old one, ex-husband Sam Asghari.

Brit and the mystery man enjoyed a fun day off the California coast ... Tuesday night she posted a video of her and Sam 2.0 hanging out on a boat.

Britney was rocking a bikini, as per usual, but it looked way more appropriate in the nautical setting than her living room. She did give the guy a few kisses on the cheek, but no word on if this is a new romantic interest ... or just a friend with a boat.

She didn't include any cryptic hints in her caption about the guy -- just the emojis 😉😉💅🏻👠👠 -- but we're working on it.

Whitney Purvis has avoided arrest in her ongoing child support case after coughing up a hefty payment ordered by a judge ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, the "16 and Pregnant" alum was on the brink of being arrested after the court found she'd fallen more than $23K behind on child support for her kids -- Weston Jr. and River -- with ex Weston Gosa.

The judge ordered Purvis be taken into custody and jailed unless she paid a $4K lump sum purge payment to avoid jail time. Court docs now show she paid the full amount ... so the judge rescinded the order before she was ever arrested.

Bam Margera has agreed to pay $2,500 per month in child support to his estranged wife Nikki Boyd ... TMZ has learned.

According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, payments are due to start on the first of January for Bam and Nikki's 8-year-old son, Phoenix.

The papers state Nikki has agreed to provide and maintain Phoenix's healthcare coverage.

This comes after Nikki initially requested Bam pay her $15,000 per month, claiming Bam's net worth was around $55 million. But now it looks like they came to an agreement for a much lower monthly amount.
