L.A. Rams Sued By Security Guard ... I GOT A BRAIN BLEED DURING VIOLENT FAN BRAWL AT SOFI

Published

A 71-year-old security guard is suing the Los Angeles Rams ... claiming the NFL org.'s negligence led to him suffering "catastrophic" injuries during a violent fan brawl at SoFi Stadium last year.

The man -- ID'd in the lawsuit as Robert Leahey -- says the incident happened back on Dec. 8, 2022 during the Rams vs. Raiders "Thursday Night Football" game ... when he was hired by Contemporary Services Corporation to help assist people in large crowds and help "maintain an orderly atmosphere."

At around 6:30 PM inside the Inglewood stadium, however, Leahey says a "large fight broke out" between L.A. and Vegas supporters -- and he jumped in to try to keep the peace.

But, in the lawsuit, Leahey says as other guards arrived on scene -- they pushed him, causing him to fall down a set of concrete stairs.

Leahey claims he hit his head several times while crashing down the stairs -- and when he got up, he alleges someone involved in the fight threw a Modelo beer can that connected with his head ... 'causing him further injury.

Leahey says on Dec. 9, he went to a nearby hospital ... "where he was tested and diagnosed with severe and catastrophic brain injuries, including a subdural hematoma with brain bleeding."

In the suit, Leahey claims since the incident, he's had difficulty with his speech and his vision -- while also suffering from headaches. He claims he's been unable to work as well.

Leahey is suing the Rams for unspecified damages.

TIFFANY HADDISH CHARGED IN L.A. DUI

Published | Updated

Tiffany Haddish has been charged in her latest DUI arrest ... after she got busted for drinking and driving following a night out in Beverly Hills last month.

The actress' case was under review by the L.A. District Attorney's Office and they've decided to charge her with driving under the influence of alcohol and driving with a .08% BAC.

112423_tiffany_haddish_kal 11/23/23
TIFFANY IN CUFFS

TMZ broke the story ... the actress was found slumped at the wheel in Beverly Hills -- blocking the road with her car.

She was booked for DUI and improper stopping on a roadway -- but less than 24 hours later, was back onstage performing down in Long Beach -- not resisting a quick quip about her arrest.

1125-tiffany-haddish-TMZ-audio-art-desktop-1 11/24/23
SO, ABOUT LAST NIGHT...

However, Tiffany quickly changed her tune ... getting serious about the arrest -- especially as she already has a DUI case in Georgia stemming from Jan 2022.

1125-tiffany-haddish-TMZ-audio-art-desktop-3 11/24/23
THE SHOW MUST GO ON

In fact, in light of her Cali arrest, Georgia prosecutors are pushing for stricter restrictions on her -- wanting to modify the bond conditions from her open DUI case there to restrict her from using booze and drugs completely.

BTW ... if Tiffany is convicted of both offenses, both California and Georgia have laws that require jail time for a second offense -- in CA, the minimum is 4 days, in GA it's 3 days.

Tiffany's since told ET she needs to "get help" to "learn balance and boundaries" -- adding, "this will never happen again."

So far, so good ... as Tiffany recently rang in her 44th birthday, AKA, her "next chapter in life," without a lick of booze in sight.

OPRAH Done Being 'Shamed' ... Yes, I Used Meds to Drop 40 lbs.!!!

Published | Updated

Oprah Winfrey is overcoming decades of shame attached to her body, and she's admitting taking weight-loss medication ... even though she previously said she'd never do that to slim down.

After shedding 40 lbs this year, the billionaire TV mogul is done with cruel and insensitive conversations about her appearance -- gushing that pharmaceutical assistance has changed her relationship with her figure.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Oprah tells PEOPLE a doctor prescribed the meds to her following her "Life You Want" series' "The State Of Weight" taping back in July, where she realized she wasn't to blame for being overweight ... noting it was more about the brain than willpower.

With a new mindset, Oprah says weight-loss meds are a healthier alternative for her rather than yo-yo-ing, and she takes the medically-approved drug as, and when, needed.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Case in point, she took them just before Thanksgiving cause she knew she had "two weeks of solid eating" ... and, as a result, says she only gained half a pound rather than eight.

This comes in stark contrast to Oprah labeling weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and Mounjaro an "easy way out" earlier this year during a chat with WeightWatchers CEO Sima Sistani.

She hasn't specified the exact meds she takes -- though many health professionals have warned against most of them due to significant side effects -- but for O, it looks like a much-welcomed solution to her weight woes.

"The Los Angeles Rams, the Los Angeles Host Committee and many other outstanding partners will help create an unforgettable week of events culminating in Super Bowl Sunday in 2027 that will celebrate the region as an epicenter of sports, entertainment and culture."

Super Bowl LXI (gotta brush up on your Roman numerals) will follow LX ... which is going down at Levi's Stadium in 2026.

Of course, Las Vegas is hosting this season ... with New Orleans following in 2025.

It's National Horse Day, y'all ... so pony up to shots of celebs givin' some love to these gorgeous equines!!!

Bella Hadid and Kendall Jenner were cheesin' for the camera next to their four-legged friends, and Alicia Keys snapped a pic while riding horseback in the water -- a big bucket list adventure for some people.

Selma Blair got up close and personal with a horse ... one that seemed a bit more interested in getting some food than posing for the photo!

LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne didn't go for the pommel horse -- that's more of a men's gymnastics thing -- but she did take some photos on top of a real horse that's rockin' a beautiful white mane!

Some might think horses aren't all that, but those are just a bunch of neigh-sayers. Happy National Horse Day!

Jonathan Majors Coretta Scott King, Obama Rant Audio ... Yells, 'I'M A GREAT MAN!!!'

Published | Updated

Jonathan Majors' now-infamous Coretta Scott King/Michelle Obama rant -- which was described in court -- can be heard for the first time in audio, and it's ... interesting.

Audio of Majors berating his ex-girlfriend/accuser Grace Jabbari about how she needed to be more like King and Obama in their own relationship has been released in the massive evidence dump that came out Wednesday ... and like we said, this is one for the ages.

We already knew the general context of what Majors had yelled at Jabbari during this old incident -- which was allowed in as evidence from the prosecution -- but hearing it is something else altogether ... because it can be digested in full, tone included.

We'll let you take a listen, but from what we can make out ... Majors is angry at Jabbari for having gone out with her friends/partying -- something he seems to think can potentially make him look bad considering his high-profile image and his status as an A-list star.

He tells her that she needs to take into account that they're a "unit" ... and think about how Coretta and Michelle stood/stand by their men and how they carried themselves.

Another notable line that Majors drops here ... that he's a "great man," which he repeats.

Jabbari can be heard sniffling during the lecture, and she apologizes throughout as well. Of course, she was also apparently secretly recording Majors.

121323_tmz_live_majors_kal
BREAKING DOWN THE EVIDENCE

The revelation of this argument certainly didn't do Majors any favors last week, but now that it's out there in the public for all to hear ... hard to say if it helps or hurts him, big picture.

Majors' trial continues this week, and now ... the defense is presenting its case.

Simone Biles I'm Not Pregnant!!! ... Shuts Down Rumors

Published

Simone Biles wants everyone to pump the brakes on all the pregnancy talk ... assuring her fans she is not expecting a baby anytime soon after a recent Instagram post was met with speculation.

Biles' fans started to wonder after the gymnastics G.O.A.T. posted a photo of herself at the Packers vs. Giants game on Monday ... where she watched her husband, Green Bay safety Jonathan Owens, do his thing.

Some followers felt like the picture gave some sort of hint she was carrying a bun in the oven ... with one saying, "Picture is sending baby vibes."

Another fan commented, "Is she expecting?? I'm so happy for them!!❤️❤️❤️"

However, Biles -- who got married to Owens this April -- had to put a stop to all the chatter ... and cleared the air on her profile Wednesday morning.

"I hate that I even have to address this, but please stop commenting on this photo or my Instagram in general about me being 'pregnant,'" Biles said on Wednesday.

"I'm not pregnant."

When they got engaged last year, however, Biles did mention during a Q&A that Owens -- who signed a 1-year deal with the Packers in May -- wants a "football team" of kids in the future ... and she only wants two.

It seems her focus right now is making it to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games ... and the babies will come at a later date.

Megan Thee Stallion Here's Something for Pardi, Tory & Kelsey ... They're All Liars!!!

KEEP MY NAME OUT YA MOUTH

Megan Thee Stallion is riled up after seeing her ex-boyfriend Pardison Fontaine spill his version of their toxic breakup ... which she says is all a fabricated fairy tale!!!

Meg set it off Wednesday morning on IG Live, where she doubled down on her "Cobra" claims that Pardi cheated on her. She claims he caught him getting oral sex in their home, and says he only attempted to switch the narrative to fit his own diss song.

The "Savage" rapper then directed her anger at her ex-friend Kelsey Harris and Tory Lanez in light of social media spreading a purported statement from Tory's bodyguard on the night Meg was shot in June 2020.

Megan reiterated that Kelsey didn't shoot her and laid into her former BFF for going mum ... figuring she was either paid off or in fear for her life.

Megan went on to remind everyone who she says DID do it ... namely, Tory Lanez, who's sitting in prison. In his purported statement, the bodyguard stated he didn't see who shot Megan, which doesn't change the verdict upheld in court.

She also ripped social media "lawyers" for getting their facts wrong ... she says the case was won in court, but uneducated fans care about online opinions more.

KILLIN' THE GAME

Pardi's repeatedly said he's trying to move past the situation, and Megan says she's been doing the same ... going hard in the gym but now loathes coming onto social media because it sucks out her joy.

She's got blonde hair for Pete's sake -- she's trying to let the new Meg shine!!!

Luke Combs Lawsuit Against Fan Selling Tumblers Makes Me Sick ... So I'm Making Things Right

Published | Updated

update

2:54 PM PT -- Luke Combs just unveiled his own tumbler, going for $20 a piece on his website ... and as promised, all proceeds will go to Nicol Harness and her family.

Luke Combs is shooting down his own $250,000 lawsuit against a Florida woman who was selling $20 tumblers with his likeness -- he says he didn't know about it, and is now taking steps to help her financially.

The country music star says he was unaware his team was going after the woman in court, and, in a video he posted Wednesday morning, he says it made him sick to his stomach when he woke up to headlines about her plight.

The lawsuit was filed in an Illinois federal court, and it roped in Nicol Harness, who says she was selling $20 Luke Combs tumblers on Amazon ... and only making $380 total. She says she didn't know she was being sued until her Amazon account froze and she learned a judge ordered her to pay $250K.

Luke says he got in touch with the woman and she told him she could not access $5,500 in her Amazon account ... and he's promising to send her double that amount, which is $11K.

What's more, Luke says he's going to start selling his own tumbler and give the proceeds to Nicol ... because she suffers from congestive heart failure and has tons of medical bills.

Luke says he pays a company to go after large-scale counterfeiters of his merchandise ... and he's not sure how Nicol's tiny operation got swept up in the lawsuit.

Nicol says she started selling the tumblers this year after going to a Luke Combs concert ... and he says he's inviting her to an upcoming show so he can also apologize in person.

The lawsuit is still playing out in court, but Luke makes it seem like she won't have to fork over $250K when the dust settles.

Jonathan Majors Surveillance Vid Shows Car Scuffle ... GF Chasing After Him

Published | Updated
121323_jonathan_majors_kal MARCH 2023
WILD CHASE THROUGH THE STREETS

Surveillance video of the night in question surrounding the Jonathan Majors' trial has been released -- showing a scuffle between the actor and his then-girlfriend -- and a foot chase shortly thereafter.

The judge has kept a tight lid on all the evidence being presented in court over these past couple weeks, but, on Wednesday ... he popped the lid open and released it all to the media, including key footage the prosecution has been showing to the jury to prove their case.

One video, in particular, is critical ... it shows the aftermath of the alleged incident between Majors and his accuser, Grace Jabbari, after she claims he attacked her in a vehicle.

You can see Majors and Jabbari outside of an SUV ... which is stopped at a light in the middle of a relatively empty NYC street. Majors and Jabbari can be seen milling outside of the car, seemingly talking, and eventually ... Majors appears to wrap her up in his arms.

From there, you see what prosecutors describe as, "using physical force once again, Majors picked her up with both hands and shoved her repeatedly into the Escalade." However, Majors isn't successful in doing so. Soon, he lets go and bolts away from her ... and Jabbari quickly goes after him.

The pursuit goes on for quite some time, it seems, and they go for at least a couple blocks before Majors outruns Jabbari. After he loses her, she stumbles across a group of strangers on the street ... and they start to talk, with the small crew consoling her.

Majors eventually makes his way back and passes the group, with Jabbari spotting him, and he strolls by them -- seemingly telling her to stay back and to stay away. She attempts to talk to him, but he continues on down the street ... Jabbari follows him yet again.

Eventually, the two separate ... Majors goes and stays the night at a hotel and Jabbari goes out to a nightclub.

121323_jonathan_majors_cops_kal 3/25/23
THE NEXT MORNING

As we reported ... Majors called 911 the next morning for a suspected overdose/suicide when he found Jabbari passed out in his closet. There's video that shows him making this call as well, which he did from the lobby of his building. Once cops show up, he escorts them upstairs to his unit. The video also shows him leading them right to her, and she's completely passed out in his closet.

121323_tmz_live_majors_kal
BREAKING DOWN THE EVIDENCE

Eventually, we see Jabbari come down with the officers ... and she's standing upright. Photos that depict Jabbari's alleged injuries were also released as part of the evidence dump.

Remember, this is all stuff that's been played/shown in court already, but which is just now becoming publicly available. In the meantime, Majors' trial continues Wednesday and the prosecution has rested its case ... now, the defense is starting to trot out their witnesses.

Lance Bass & Joey Fatone Singin' *NSYNC Hits At Holiday Party ... Chucking 'Trolls' Dolls to Crowd!

NSYNC WITH THE HOLIDAY SPIRIT

Lance Bass and Joey Fatone are bringing some *NSYNC flair to New York City, where they performed at a holiday party, and probably fueled reunion hopes and dreams by singing some of the group's hits.

The singers showed up at the Bilt Rewards Winter Holiday House Party Tuesday night at Maxwell Social in Tribeca -- and over 350 guests including Bilt Rewards Founder & CEO Ankur Jain were entertained by the surprise duo, who jumped on the mic to sing tracks like "Bye Bye Bye" and "Tearin' Up My Heart."

And, since 'tis the season ... Joey and Lance also took some time to sing the group's holiday hit, "Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays."

They were also chucking some stuffed 'Trolls' dolls out to folks in the audience -- a tip of the hat to the boy band's recent reunion for a song in Justin Timberlake's flick, "Trolls Band Together."

The guys bumped into a few "RHONY" stars throughout the night ... including Countess Luann de Lesseps and newbie Erin Lichy and her husband Abraham, as well as Dorinda Medley -- who actually joined Lance and Joey onstage for "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer!"'

RHONJ stars Dolores Catania and Margaret Josephs, Million Dollar Listing New York's Ryan Serhant, and RHONY alum Carole Radziwill were also at the party.

No sign of Justin, JC Chasez, and Chris Kirkpatrick at the holiday shindig -- let's be honest, getting the whole group would've been a MUCH higher price tag.

Although the 'Trolls' song built up hopes the guys would do a full album or even tour ... the word from folks in the know is it still isn't happening.
