Bill Belichick has spirit, yes he does ... the legendary coach was a supportive boyfriend at Jordon Hudson's cheer competition this weekend ... and earned himself a "WAG" title in the process!!

It was a big weekend for Hudson's Cheer Extreme Code Black team -- they won yet another championship in the International Open Coed Non-Tumbling division at the Cheerleading Worlds in Florida.

The squad is now quite the dynasty ... further proving the 74-year-old NFL great and his 25-year-old partner have a knack for stuffing their trophy cases.

NFL receiver Sterling Shepard is taking his breakup in stride -- he made his way to the desert for some country music, fresh off his engagement falling apart.

The recent Tampa Bay Buccaneers star shared snaps from his time at Stagecoach this past weekend ... and he was all smiles as he posed for the camera.

Shepard didn't have much to say outside of a hashtag name-dropping the popular festival in his caption.

Chris Brown's partner, Jada Wallace, has given birth to a baby boy ... and she's sharing the first adorable photos of her newborn after months of pregnancy speculation.

Jada announced the arrival Sunday night on social media ... posting sweet snaps of the baby and captioning them, "Purest love 💛".

And fans quickly connected the dots when Chris popped into the comments with "❤️ Taurus ♉️ GANG ❤️" ... a message that fueled even more speculation he is the dad. Chris' mother added to the buzz, too ... writing, "CONGRATUALTIONS!!! HES JUST PERFECT! SENDING LOVE ALWAYS!!"

John Hinckley -- the man who shot then-President Ronald Reagan in 1981 -- says the Washington Hilton Hotel should stop holding big events because it's not secure, and bad things keep happening there ... just like at Saturday night's White House Correspondents' Dinner.

And who knows better than Hinckley ... the Washington Hilton was the site where he shot Reagan and 3 other people in March 1981 in a failed assassination attempt. Hinckley was quickly arrested but later found not guilty by reason of insanity and placed in a mental hospital for over 34 years before gaining back his freedom.

TMZ spoke with Hinckley Sunday about security at the Washington Hilton, which has been a topic of national debate in the wake of Saturday night's WHCD shooting, with many people making comparisons to the Reagan shooting.

Kash Patel is already taking a bit of a victory lap, saying he and Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche will break down exactly how alleged gunman Cole Allen slipped past security at the WH Correspondents' Dinner … with more answers coming later today.

Patel went on FOX News Channel's "Fox & Friends" Monday morning promising "actual details" during a press conference later today -- including how the suspect slipped through undetected at the Washington Hilton -- noting they have a ton of details less than 36 hours after the shooting.

Blanche has said Allen checked into the hotel as a guest at least a day before the dinner.

Patel says agents have run "dozens and dozens" of interviews to piece together everything ... who the guy is, how he got in, the firearms he used, and everything in between.

Ben Stiller has the MAGA army coming after him over a social media post about his beloved Knicks ... misinterpreted as a comment on the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting.

Here's the deal ... the actor merely posted "Got it done" Saturday night, in reference to the Knicks Game 4 road victory over the Atlanta Hawks to even their playoff series. And it just so happened around that time ... suspected gunman Cole Tomas Allen opened fire at the Correspondents' Dinner.

Due to the timing ... MAGA supporters jumped all over Ben's X post, assuming that, since he's a Hollywood liberal who's been critical of President Trump in the past ... CLEARLY he must've been rooting on the gunman.

Two newly surfaced photos are pulling back the curtain on the chaos outside the White House Correspondents’ Dinner ... revealing the weapon authorities say accused gunman Cole Allen brought to the D.C. Hilton Saturday night ... and showing the suspect wrapped in a Mylar blanket moments before bullets started flying.

CNN obtained the photos … showing what appears to be a black tactical-style long gun laid out on a carpeted floor ... one of the weapons authorities say Allen brought with him to the hotel. Investigators claim he was also armed with a .38-caliber semiautomatic pistol and a 12-gauge shotgun.

A second photo shows Allen shirtless and wrapped in an emergency-style Mylar blanket after his arrest ... officers had removed his clothes while searching him for additional weapons and checking for injuries.

President Trump got hot under the collar during his "60 Minutes" interview with Norah O'Donnell that aired Sunday night, slamming her for bringing up Jeffrey Epstein's pedophile ways in connection with the White House Correspondents' Dinner alleged gunman, Cole Allen.

On Sunday, Trump sat down to chat with O'Donnell at the White House about Saturday night's shooting at the Washington Hilton, where the prez was gathered with the press and his cabinet for the WHCD event.

As you know, Allen allegedly dashed through the lobby, heading toward the ballroom where the world's most powerful people were celebrating, but he got tackled along the way by federal agents.  

The NBA Dunk Contest is on relevancy life support ... but Julius Erving, the first-ever winner in the event, has a way to save it -- telling TMZ Sports it's time for the league's biggest stars to brush up on their history.

We caught up with the Hall of Famer in NYC this week ... and considering he has countless iconic slams to his name, we had to ask about the state of the All-Star Weekend staple.

It's no secret fans are starting to roll their eyes at it ... with randos competing against each other instead of franchise players. Zach LaVine, Aaron Gordon and G League star Mac McClung have certainly helped the cause ... but overall, it's been a dud for quite some time.

This all went down about 30 minutes before shots rang out at the hotel and sent guests scrambling for cover.

President Trump says he didn't let the Secret Service usher him away from the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner because he wanted to see what was going on.

Madonna played a mix of new and classic tunes ... including her new single, "I Feel So Free," from her upcoming "Confessions on a Dance Floor: Part II" album.

For this airport edition of Guess Who ... this king was far away from Queens when TMZ bumped into him at LAX.

Denise Richards and her estranged husband, Aaron Phypers were back in court for their bitter divorce and Denise scored a minor victory during the hearing.

Denise was in court Monday where she made the case to seal sensitive documents. The judge heard testimony and ended up siding with Richards.

As TMZ previously reported ... Denise was ordered to pay Aaron $5K a month in spousal support. When the order came in, Denise reportedly muttered ... "I can't afford it" ... according to The California Post.

When Aaron filed for divorce back in July, he said he had no income and wanted spousal support from Denise, estimating she was grossing over $250K a month from OnlyFans, brand deals, TV gigs, and appearances.
