We want you to be a part of TMZ, so every weekday, between 10:30 AM and 12:00 PM PT, we take you inside our newsroom via live stream.

You never know what you're gonna get ... a big story that breaks, an argument erupts in the room, or someone's just joking around.

Your comments are a big part of the stream, and the staff spends a lot of time speaking directly to you. Every day is different!

Louise Lasser -- famous for her work in Woody Allen movies and her starring role in "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" -- is dead.

The actress died on Monday at her home in Manhattan ... according to multiple reports. The official cause of death is unclear but Variety reports she died of natural causes.

The comedy actress and writer got her start in Woody's films before getting the top billing in the iconic "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" ... where audiences around the country would see her marvelous portrayal of an Ohio housewife on nighttime TV Mondays through Fridays.

Lauren Bennett's sudden death is under investigation in England ... and while the coroner is involved, it could take months before we have any answers.

UK authorities tell TMZ ... the Kent and Medway Coroner Service is leading the death investigation, which will proceed until October 30.

We're told Lauren died May 29 in Meopham, and the death investigation was opened on June 12.

A private memorial service in London was held in the musician's honor about a week and a half ago, with Lauren's family and closest friends gathering to celebrate her life ... including her former bandmates from G.R.L. and Paradiso Girls.

Tyler Robinson, the 23-year-old alleged assassin of Charlie Kirk, is now in the second day of his preliminary hearing ... and a law enforcement officer is testifying against Robinson's noticeable limp -- caught on video the day of the shooting -- which is claimed to be because of a weapon tucked in his pants.

Check out the video ... Tyler is seen going up a flight of stairs on Utah Valley University campus with a noticeable limp ... and this was moments before he allegedly assassinated Charlie Kirk.

Police are saying that limp is not because of any physical injury or deformity, but rather because he had a gun -- or perhaps part of a gun -- tucked away in his pants which inhibited the use of his leg.

Support is flooding in as Nolan Wells' family mourns his tragic death ... a GoFundMe is fast approaching six figures worth of donations.

Family friend Allayah Denis started the crowdfunding page less than 24 hours ago ... and it's already raised $100,000 in Nolan's memory.

Allayah wrote on GoFundMe ... "Nolan Xavier Wells was a beloved son, grandson, brother, friend and teammate whose life touched so many people. His smile, kind heart, and love for others left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him."

The drive-by shooting that killed influencer DreamDoll Brii was caught on video ... and it's tough to watch.

Surveillance footage shows DreamDoll's Lamborghini Urus driving down a residential street when a sedan comes speeding into frame, passing her car on the driver's side before flying around the corner.

DreamDoll's car rolls through a stop sign and drifts into someone's property. Folks who live on the block say they heard gunshots -- it's hard to tell from the video when the shots were fired -- and police are looking for the white sedan from this video.

Hunter Biden got a lot more than a confidence boost from Benny Blanco and Lil Dicky ... joking about launching an OnlyFans account!!!

Hunter went on the "Friends Keep Secrets" podcast with Benny, Dicky and Kristin Batalucco ... telling them about what's next in his career and explaining he's working on poetry and essays.

But after the hosts repeatedly hyped up Hunter's looks and style, the conversation took an unexpected turn towards OF.

Check out the clip ... Hunter starts wondering if all the compliments are actually a suggestion that he start an OnlyFans account. He even jokes he could dust off his "old stuff" for subscribers -- a cheeky reference to his infamous 2020 nude photos leak.

Marshawn Kneeland, late Cowboys pass rusher who took his life in November, has been diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), according to doctors.

The 24-year-old pass rusher's brain was sent to the center for a posthumous examination after his tragic death from a self-inflicted gunshot wound ... and on Tuesday, doctors at Boston University's CTE Center released their findings, saying Kneeland had Stage 1 CTE.

Stage one is the first stage of the disease, characterized by short-term memory loss, mild aggression and depression, and headaches, according to experts.

Kim Kardashian says she still needs court-ordered protection from a man she claims sent her Plan B and a diamond ring ... telling a judge he's as delusional, angry and obsessed as ever.

The reality star's lawyers -- Shawn Holley and Kate Mangels -- filed to extend Kim's restraining order against Nicholas Costanza ... it's set to expire Wednesday and they say Costanza hasn't mellowed out in the slightest.

Kim claims that since the order was issued in July 2021, Costanza's "delusional beliefs, anger and obsession have not improved" ... and she says he's even sent her numerous messages over the years in violation of the court order.

One of the male escorts involved in freak-offs with Cassie is telling a judge he never threatened Diddy’s ex ... despite her claims otherwise ... TMZ has learned.

Clayton Howard, former male escort-turned-law student, filed a declaration in his case against Cassie and Diddy.

As TMZ first reported, Cassie called out Clayton over a since-deleted 9-minute TikTok he posted on June 7, in which he called her a whore and said, “Bitch, I'm going to burn you out with fire."

Former "Bachelor" Peter Weber allegedly hooked up with his main producer when his season was still airing ... and just days before rekindling his flame with Kelley Flanagan.

The bombshell claim comes courtesy of former "Bachelor" producer Julie LaPlaca, who spills all the behind-the-scenes tea in her new memoir, "The Love Producer," where she says the longtime friendship between her and Pilot Pete turned romantic in early 2020, when speculation first cropped up.

According to Julie, the two slept together after Peter's engagement to Hannah Ann Sluss had already imploded off-camera ... with their alleged hookup taking place at his parents' house while the show was still airing. She even compares the night to a real-life Fantasy Suite.

July 8, 2 PM PT -- Sony Music tells TMZ ... "This matter concerns a royalty accounting dispute the parties were actively engaged in attempting to resolve. We are disappointed that So-So Def elected to pursue litigation rather than continue that dialogue."

Jermaine Dupri wants Sony to face the music ... filing a multimillion-dollar lawsuit over royalties he says never made it into his record label's pockets.

According to a newly filed lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Jermaine and his record label So So Def Recordings claim Sony underpaid and withheld royalties tied to a long list of hit albums -- including projects involving Mariah Carey, Usher, Kris Kross, Jagged Edge, Bow Wow, and more.

Jermaine claims the issues didn't come to light until 2023 ... when he says Sony began issuing new and amended royalty statements. The suit says a 2025 audit uncovered years of alleged accounting errors, missing royalties, and previously unreported earnings ... prompting So So Def to demand roughly $18 million.

The Chiefs know how to win rings ... but it turns out they have a thing for bags too!!

Kansas City linebacker Drue Tranquill and his wife, Jackie, left Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's wedding with quite the souvenir -- a Chanel purse that comes with a $6,700 price tag.

The Chiefs WAG revealed the score in a social media post on Monday ... proudly displaying the prize with a raffle ticket that read "winner."

Prince Harry's war with the British tabloids just hit another roadblock ... because he and a group of celebrity pals struck out in court against the publisher of the Daily Mail.

Harry and the other high-profile claimants accused Associated Newspapers Limited of illegally digging up information for stories about them ... but after an 11-week trial, the High Court ruled they simply didn't prove it.

In a 436-page judgment, the judge found the claimants failed to show the reporting stemmed from unlawful information gathering ... saying there were legitimate explanations for how the information could have been obtained -- so, the case was dismissed.

Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour dancer Tori Evans was torn apart online for wearing white to the superstar's wedding ... but her husband says her dress wasn't white at all!

Tori's husband defended her on social media after the internet criticized her dress choice, commenting on the viral Instagram Reel of their outfits, "DRESS IS PINK CHAMPAGNE color for everyone that doesn’t understand lighting 😂."

But, not everyone was convinced, with one arguing, "Champagne shades are still bridal colors. She looks great but the Internet is not going to like this. Wrong occasion for this dress." Several others shared a similar sentiment, as you can see by some of the comments above.

Swifties are brewing with excitement that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may release a film or documentary about their New York City wedding ... but it appears it may only happen in their "Wildest Dreams."

Multiple outlets are reporting the couple has no plans to release such a public project about their Madison Square Garden nuptials, despite professional film crews being present.

We told you a few days before the couple's special day there were formal notices that there would be photography and videography happening in and around the iconic venue between June 29 and July 3 ... which covered the dates of the wedding festivities.

And as you know, there were only professional cameras allowed at the wedding ceremony and reception. TMZ reported guests not only had their phones confiscated before entering the venue, but security scanned guests for Meta Smart Glasses and other hidden cameras.
