Did you have the release of Bane's debut rap album on your 2026 bingo card? Well, buckle up ... because Tom Hardy's dropping bars.

The actor just dropped an album with Czarface -- a group formed by Wu-Tang Clan member Inspectah Deck and 7L & Esoteric -- under the pseudonym Frankie Pulitzer.

If you can believe it ... the songs are actually pretty good, and one is even a collab with rap legends Busta Rhymes and Method Man.

TBH, the stage name works for TH, because his pen is lethal -- even venomous, some would say. But don't just take our word for it ... check out the songs for yourself.

Enes Kanter is turning his WNBA ejection into moolah, baby ... by putting his John Hancock to photographs of the former NBA big man getting tossed from Sunday's Sky game in Chicago.

TMZ Sports obtained video of Kanter, 34, after he landed in D.C. Thursday night, as autograph seekers were already waiting with the goods.

No old Jazz or Celtics shots, here, though ... instead the 'graphers had printed stills of Kanter being escorted out of Wintrust Arena.

He signed them.

Of course, it's a now-infamous moment from last weekend ... when Enes attended the nationally televised game in the Windy City, only for Natasha Cloud to start jawing with him, sparking an intense verbal argument that led to his ejection.

After he was booted, Kanter posted, "I just got kicked out of a WNBA game for supporting WOMEN! Let that sink in, AMERICA!"

Days after the incident, Sky owner Michael Alter moved to ban Enes, labeling him a "potential threat."

The WNBA chose not to follow suit ... opting not to give the story more air.

Brittany Cartwright is giving a disturbing look at the alleged aftermath of one of her blowups with Jax Taylor ... showing off a badly bruised knee and damage inside their home.

Photos filed with the court and obtained by TMZ show dark bruising around Brittany's knee and leg ... along with a coffee table flipped over and a pic showing an iPad looking seriously busted up -- with Jax standing behind her.

Brittany says the damage came during a July 2024 incident ... claiming Jax got furious after going through private messages on her iPad.

Hope y'all are hungry heading into the weekend, 'cuz Carmen Electra is lookin' like a fine-apple, and if her latest fruit photos don't appease your appetite, then you clearly haven't worked up a proper one!

Check out the gallery ... at 54 years old, the "Baywatch" babe went topless on a balcony ... covering her nipples with fruit ... and then added a banana to the mix, because apparently one serving of fruit wasn't enough.

See it for your own eyes -- Carmen's getting her potassium fix, sitting pretty while seductively biting into a banana.

Taylor Frankie Paul's future on "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" remains intact ... 'cause Hulu is still firmly behind her, despite tons of legal drama ... TMZ has learned.

A Hulu source tells TMZ ... the streamer remains fully supportive of Taylor and expects her to continue participating in the hit reality series ... a clear vote of confidence as she continues her journey both personally and professionally.

A source close to Taylor echoes that sentiment, telling us Hulu has worked with the MomTok star for four years and knows "her heart and what she stands for."

Bianca Censori is serving up Kanye West's head on a silver platter ... or, at least a medical tray.

Ye's wife took to Instagram to share a realistic-looking photo of the rapper's severed head -- a prop from his music video with Don Toliver ... and it's a lot to behold.

Even though it's fake, it's enough to do a double-take, thanks to the gory details ... like the uneven cuts that make it look like someone hacked off Ye's head.

Angel Victoria Murdock seemed to have it all ... she graduated from Duke University, started selling high-end real estate, had 300,000 followers on social media, and even was a guest for 6 episodes on the popular Netflix show, "Temptation Island" ... but now she's being called out.

The problem is ... Angel allegedly lied about her college degree, and the university told us they don't have a record of her in their system.

Here's what happened ... Angel posted Instagram photos of herself as a 2026 Duke graduate, and she wrote in the caption, "Today, I get to look back and realize that every late night, every sacrifice, every setback and every prayer was leading me right here."

Jen Shah is officially done serving her federal prison sentence … and the former "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" star says she's ready to start a new chapter.

Jen told The Hollywood Reporter that Friday marks the official end of her sentence for her role in a nationwide telemarketing fraud scheme.

She says ... "I made decisions that had serious consequences, and I accept those consequences."

Jen also says she's spent years reflecting on the people she trusted, the red flags she ignored and the moments when she should have listened to her instincts.

President Trump is snubbing the 9/11 25th anniversary ceremony at Ground Zero ... and the reason is apparently pretty simple ... the native New Yorker wants to give a speech, and that's a big no-no at the World Trade Center event.

Trump is expected to mark the occasion at the Pentagon instead ... where he'll be free to grab a mic and say whatever comes to mind.

POTUS wouldn't be able to do that at the WTC ... the National September 11 Memorial and Museum has barred politicians from speaking there since 2012 in an effort to remain nonpartisan.

Trump planned to go to Ground Zero, but he wanted to give a speech and was turned down ... so he pivoted to the Pentagon ... according to The New York Times and CNN.

George Santos is coming for Kim Kardashian over North West's latest magazine cover ... blasting the reality star for acting more like her daughter's "pimp" than her mom.

The former Congressman unloaded on Kim on social media after North's Dazed Digital cover made the rounds ... blasting the 13-year-old's look and the way she's being raised.

Santos wrote, "Be a mother instead of a pimp!" ... while arguing North should be in prep school and finishing school, getting what he called a "well rounded education."

Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor look like they are having some very heated arguments as their bitter divorce drags on ... at least according to a series of texts and emails she submitted in court.

TMZ obtained the alleged texts Brittany filed as court exhibits in her restraining order petition ... Brittany says the messages were sent after Jax showed up at her home to pick up their son Cruz and caused a scene.

The following day, Brittany says she sent a message, dated July 15, 2026, reading, "You have been warned I will call police for trespassing and again my son is signed up for camp and going to we rock the spectrum. YOU ARE NOT MY BOSS. Grow up and leave me alone you are sick and will never change."

This prompted Jax to reply, "Are you threatening me that sounds like a threat."

Two scam artists -- one posing as a San Francisco 49ers player -- cheated 26 women out of $1.3 million as part of an investment scheme ... according to federal authorities, who have now arrested and charged them with serious crimes.

Federal prosecutors in Portland, Oregon, charged Daejon Labrayae Love, 35, and Taylor Jamie Chan, 18, with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and wire fraud. The FBI arrested Love and Chan at Boise Airport in Idaho on August 24 after prosecutors said the suspects flew in to "meet new victims."

According to the feds, Love and Chan kicked off their scam in February 2022, creating fake investments to steal money from women in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and California.

Love allegedly connected with the women over the Internet and on dating apps, passing himself off as a wealthy investor and NFL player, and introduced them to Chan. Authorities say Love told the victims Chan was his financial adviser to gain their trust and show that he was a serious businessman -- part of a scam that saw him empty their bank accounts.

Gladys Knight's fans are deeply concerned she's being forced to perform shows after she looked totally out of it at multiple concerts, and now people working on her tour are calling it absolutely "tragic" ... TMZ has learned.

The Motown legend has been touring solo, and sometimes with fellow icon Smokey Robinson, for several months, but after the last few shows Gladys has looked confused at times, staring off blankly and leaving much of the vocals to her backup singers. Her July 25 show at the Hollywood Bowl featured one of the more concerning incidents.

Sources with direct knowledge of the tour tell TMZ ... people spoke to Gladys' team before that show and said it's "not suitable" for her to be on stage.

Once the show started, it's obvious why they were worried ... while performing her classic "Midnight Train to Georgia," Gladys turned her back to the crowd and started walking off the stage. When a backup singer reached for her arm, Gladys shook off the attempt to keep her on stage.

Andrew Tate's girlfriend testified Thursday in his federal sex trafficking case in Miami, but she was not pregnant with his child, contrary to reports -- and she has suffered past miscarriages as the couple tries to expand their family, according to his lawyer.

Tate's attorney, Joseph McBride, tells TMZ ... the media got it all wrong when they reported that Tate's girlfriend of 6 years, Natasha Sesay, was pregnant with their second child while testifying Thursday at Andrew's federal bail hearing in an effort to get him released on bond.

McBride says the two are expecting their second child via surrogacy because they've been trying to have kids together for some time ... going with a surrogate after Natasha suffered "brutal miscarriages."

Angel McCoughtry isn't mincing words when it comes to Enes Kanter Freedom ... the former WNBA star just lit up the 11-year NBA vet!

TMZ Sports ran into the 5x WNBA All-Star at LAX on Thursday amid the raging controversy ... and Angel didn't hold back, teeing off on not just Kanter, but the guys who have thrown sex toys on the court.

"I just have a question to the guys out there. What is the obsession? The dildos are being thrown on the ground. You guys are coming with the shirts. There's no transgender in the WNBA. So y'all are going on a frenzy about what? What is the obsession with this? Why can't we play and have fun?"
