When we asked whether Hannah Brown -- the woman Tyler pursued on "The Bachelorette" in 2019 -- made the cut, he didn't hesitate to tell us she's not on the guest list.

Police in South Carolina are trying to get their hands on surveillance footage that's said to show Hayden Panettiere entering and exiting the apartment complex where she died, TMZ has learned.

Hayden used the bathtub to make a strong, simple point ... imagining spending an entire lifetime confined to a space that small ... similar to marine mammals living in tanks.
