An iPhone's been found from the Alaska Airlines flight forced to make an emergency landing when a hole blew open in the fuselage ... and amazingly, the device was not damaged.

The device was found along a roadside in Oregon, according to game designer Sean Bates -- who posted on X about his shocking discovery, saying it had no scratches on it, and worked just fine.

He says the phone was still in airplane mode, and it unlocked without a passcode. Most telling, he says it opened to a baggage and flight confirmation for flight 1282 ... the flight that was forced to make an emergency return to Portland airport after the door blew off mid-flight on Friday.

In a follow-up video, Sean said he was skeptical when he stumbled upon the phone, which still had a piece of a charger wedged into it ... but called over a member of the National Transportation Safety Board search team when he realized what he had in his hands.

The plug used on the exit door has also been found, according to NTSB Chair Jennifer Homendy -- who said it was found in a schoolteacher's backyard in Portland after Friday's ordeal in the skies.

As we reported, a wild video from inside the plane showed the insanity folks had to face while on board -- with strong gusts of wind filling the cabin while the Alaska Airlines pilots had to fly back to Portland to land.

While the plane -- which was heading to Ontario, CA -- luckily landed with no injuries, there have been reports that pilots had filed reports about warning lights about the plane in the days leading up to Friday's incident ... which indicated a loss of cabin pressure.

The Boeing 737 MAX 9 was restricted from taking long-distance flights over the water as a result, and Homendy told CNN she was aware there were issues with the aircraft before the ordeal went down.

Nike just released a statement on the breakup ... thanking Tiger Woods for all his years as a partner.

"Tiger," the Swoosh wrote in an Instagram post, "you challenged your competition, stereotypes, conventions, the old school way of thinking. You challenged the entire institution of golf. You challenged us. And most of all, yourself. And for that challenge we’re grateful."

Tiger Woods' historic partnership with Nike is no more ... the golfing legend just revealed he's split with the Swoosh after 27 years.

The 48-year-old made the announcement on his X page just minutes ago, thanking Phil Knight ... while reminiscing on the "amazing moments and memories" he's had with the athletic apparel giant.

"If I started naming them," he said of his most memorable times with the brand, "I could go on forever."

Woods first inked a deal with Nike back when he was still an amateur golfer ... and he went on to become synonymous with the brand -- wearing swooshes on his gear for every one of his major tournament wins.

However, Woods dropped breadcrumbs recently that a breakup could be coming ... most notably when he was seen wearing FootJoys at the 2022 Masters -- a year after he seriously injured his leg in a car crash.

Woods also wouldn't confirm his future with Nike when reporters asked him about it at the PNC Championship last month ... saying only, "I'm still wearing their product."

Unclear where Woods will go next when it comes to brand partnerships ... he said only in his statement Monday morning, "People will ask if there is another chapter. Yes, there will certainly be another chapter."

"See you in LA!"

Selena Gomez was knee-deep in some juicy gossip with her BFF Taylor Swift at the Golden Globes -- and internet sleuths/amateur lip-readers think she was talking about Kylie Jenner.

The actress/pop star went over to T-Swift's table at some point during the show -- a moment that was captured on a b-roll fan cam that was being broadcast from the Globes' own site ... showing behind-the-scenes stuff that didn't end up on TV.

Welp, eagle-eyed fans noticed this little meetup ... where SG rolls up on TayTay and a pal, Keleigh Teller, whispers something into Taylor's ear -- and then mouths something to her as well.

Keleigh, who's next to Taylor, appears to say "Timothée" and you see Selena nod emphatically.

While you can't hear much in the main clip circulating online, there's another video taken by a THR reporter who was standing nearby -- and who filmed part of this conversation. In their clip, you can hear Keleigh clearly say/ask "Timothée" ... just as many suspected.

Here's what the Internet thinks Selena said ... "I asked for a picture with him and she said no." Taylor looks shocked to hear this, and then the friend next to her asks if Selena means Timothée Chalamet ... and Selena confirms with the biggest, most exaggerated head gesture ever.

Of course, Kylie and Tim were in the building too ... and they were getting cozy throughout the show. It's unclear if/when Selena might've gone over there to chat -- but if what fans think they're seeing here is true ... it's interesting considering the interlinked history from all sides.

For starters, there's perceived bad blood between Selena and Kylie ... as well as with Hailey Bieber -- 'memba the whole "Mean Girls" eyebrows things? -- but they tried stamping that out.

When it comes to TC ... Selena shot a movie with the dude years ago, as love interests.

It'd only be natural for Selena to come on over and try to say hi to Timmy -- and a picture certainly wouldn't be out of the question either. You gotta wonder how exactly this may have gone down, and whether it was in Tim's presence or not ... assuming it happened at all.

Draymond Green was apparently close to leaving his basketball career behind ... revealing he considered retiring amid his indefinite suspension, but Adam Silver talked him out of it.

The Golden State Warriors star opened up on the private conversation he had with the NBA commish on his latest podcast episode this week ... saying he felt defeated around the time he was punished for hitting Phoenix Suns player Jusuf Nurkic.

"I told him, 'Adam this is too much for me,'" Draymond said, according to ESPN. "'This is too much. It's all becoming too much for me -- and I'm going to retire.'"

33-year-old Green went on to explain Silver talked some sense into him ... refusing to let him make a "rash decision" and walk away from the league.

Green said he appreciated the discussion ... and it showed that commish is more focused on what's best for the players than using his power to punish them.

The four-time champion -- who was suspended shortly after the Dec. 12 hit on Nurkic -- was reinstated over the weekend ... and is expected to suit up for the Warriors again soon.

The stars were out in force this weekend to celebrate all the big wins at the Golden Globes -- and there was no shortage of shindigs to hit up ... which they all most certainly did.

After the CBS broadcast was over, A-listers filed out of the Beverly Hilton and scattered all throughout L.A. to attend different after-parties -- and at first glance, it looks like HBO's get-together at the Chateau Marmont was the place to be.

Among the celebs in attendance for that one ... Matt Damon, Jennifer Lawrence, America Ferrera, Orlando Bloom, Kevin Costner, Margot Robbie, Billie Eilish, Tobey Maguire, Jodie Foster, Jeremy Allen White, Paris Jackson, Jason Sudeikis, Christopher Nolan, Casey Affleck ... and others.

Another big party was going down on behalf of Universal at Tommy's in Bev Hills -- and it was kinda "Oppenheimer"-centric ... with some overlap of famous faces from the movie.

Cillian Murphy swung by, as did Emily Blunt and John Krasinski, Patrick J. Adams, Sarah Rafferty, Da'Vine Joy Randolph ... and a handful of other celebs who were at the award show.

Elsewhere in the Globes party-verse ... Billie Eilish was livin' it up after her big win for her original "Barbie" song -- and she was joined by the likes of Flavor Flav, Helen Mirren, Trevor Noah, Jeremy Allen White, Hannah Waddingham, Ali Wong and a slew of other stars.

Netflix had a major bash as well ... and theirs was also star-studded. Lenny Kravitz, Dave Chappelle, Natasha Lyonne, Jim Gaffigan, Barry Keoghan, Julianne Moore and more.

Like we said, the stars were out and ready to get their mingle on a Sunday night -- and they most certainly did that and then some. While the show was a little uneven, the after-parties looked like a great time.

Pretty eventful evening all things considered ... and it's just the start of awards season.

Two men got in a wild fistfight outside of the Tennessee Titans game on Sunday ... throwing haymakers right in the middle of a parking lot.

It's unclear exactly what sparked the melee in Nashville ... but based on commentary from the guys in the fight, it seems a remark or two about a woman in the area set it all off.

You can see in video from the scene, bystanders tried to separate the guys before the fists started flying ... but ultimately the men were able to get a hold of each other and started to pound on one another.

For several moments, they traded blows ... but they were pulled away from one another. However, the two were able to reconvene the fight just seconds later.

Eventually, a right hand sent one of the men crashing to the ground ... mercifully ending the battle.

According to the Nashville Police Dept., no arrests were made.

"It looks like it had dissipated at the end of the video when an officer is seen," a police spokesperson said. "There were no calls."

Jonathan Majors is maintaining his innocence even after being found guilty by a jury of his peers -- saying he was shocked by the verdict in his first televised interview.

The actor spoke to 'GMA' in an exclusive sit-down that aired Monday, and Linsey Davis was asking him some pretty hard questions ... including whether he did what he'd been accused of by the Manhattan D.A.'s Office -- namely, assaulting his ex-GF Grace Jabbari.

Majors insists he did not ... which is why he says he was stunned by the result, a conviction on two of four counts -- including harassment and assault, albeit the 2 lesser charges.

Davis asks him how Jabbari might've sustained her injuries if it wasn't him ... and he shrugs his shoulders, saying he has no idea -- but that he'd love to figure it out to find some peace.

JM was also grilled about this wild audio in which he's lecturing Jabbari about how she needed to be more like Michelle Obama and Coretta Scott King if she wanted to be with him.

Jon says he was simply pointing out great people he aspired to be like ... defending his rant.

There are other highlights, but these are the big ones -- and Majors ends by expressing regret over how he handled things with his ex. He says he should've been man enough to leave her before that night ... and also says he shouldn't have been in the car with her.

Taylor Swift turned into the ice queen at the 2024 Golden Globes after host Jo Koy cracked a joke about her attending her boyfriend Travis Kelce's NFL games.

The pop icon was sitting at her table listening to Koy's opening monologue at the star-studded event Sunday night when the short, but uncomfortable moment occurred on video.

Check it out ... Joe was rattling off his monologue onstage when he suddenly pivoted to a wisecrack about Taylor, saying, "The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL -- on the Golden Globes we have fewer camera shots to Taylor Swift."

Taylor then flashed on the TV screen, staring daggers back at Joe as she pursed her lips and took a sip of her drink. Fair to say Taylor was not amused in the least.

Luckily for Joe no further action was taken by Taylor ... that we know of!!!

Of course, Joe was just poking a little fun at Taylor for religiously attending Travis' football games to cheer him on as the TV cameras constantly pan to her in the VIP sections. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has been dating Taylor for a while now – and the two seem to be in love.

Meanwhile, Taylor wasn't the only celeb to have their feathers ruffled by Joe at the Globes last night. Joe threw a barb at "Barbie," which landed flat with the film's star, Ryan Gosling.

Joe also made a crack about Gosling's costar, Margot Robbie, but his joke fizzled, prompting him to say he didn't write it.

The Golden Globes are underway, and while you're seeing what CBS wants to show you on TV ... there's a heck of a lot going on behind the scenes, which you can see right here.

All the stars are cheesin' and posing together for very happy pics at their tables as they mingle around the ballroom at the Beverly Hilton -- and by the looks of it everybody's pretty freaking happy, with celebs grinning from ear to ear.

Some of the stars who are smiling bright on the floor ... Taylor Swift, Allison Hsu, Matty Matheson, Simu Liu, Thierry Frémaux, Harrison Ford, Lee Sung Jin and Steven Yeun -- to name a few.

More pearly whites on display came from Florence Pugh and Margot Robbie ... who were kinda twinning with their pink/red dresses.

Hailee Steinfeld kept things chic with a classic ball gown ... and Andrew Scott, Raul Domingo, Colman Domingo, Bryn Mooser and Natasha Lyonne were palling around down there too.

Safe to say, it's a feel-good night and the awards are just gonna keep coming.

Cops investigating Ian Ziering's crazy biker brawl are zeroing in on at least one of the bikers for vandalism charges ... and, as of now, they're not as concerned about the fight side of things.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... the main focus of the case is a potential felony vandalism charge against the bikers for damaging Ian's car, but no arrests have been made yet.

We're told the new videos that emerged, in which Ian is seen initiating the violence by pushing one of the bikers, show this fight could be considered mutual combat. If that's the case, battery charges are unlikely, especially since none of the bikers have filed a police report.

Let's face it ... that wouldn't be a very biker gang thing to do.

Another reason they're not running to cops ... we're told the mini motorbikes they were riding are illegal to ride on public streets or freeways.

As for the vandalism -- one of the bikers is seen clearly on video using a helmet to smash Ian's windshield. When the case gets submitted, however, the L.A. District Attorney can add battery charges if they feel the evidence is there.

Criss Angel pulled off the perfect vanishing act during his recent show ... the disappearance of a belligerent man causing a disturbance.

Witnesses tell TMZ the magician was performing at his show "MINDFREAK" last week in Vegas' Planet Hollywood ... when a man in the second row of the audience started to cause a scene ... and his behavior only worsened as the show continued.

According to a police report, obtained by TMZ, the man, Brandon McDonald, was asked to put his phone away but wouldn't comply. Words were exchanged and then things eventually escalated to McDonald allegedly throwing punches.

Witnesses tell us from there all hell broke loose as security came to remove the man. A scuffle ensued and another ticketholder was assaulted.

We're told it was only when McDonald tried to grab one security guard from behind that Criss stepped in to subdue him ... assisting security in escorting McDonald out of the theater.

When Metropolitan Police arrived, McDonald was arrested for battery.

Jim Gaffigan took the oxygen out of the room during while presenting an award at the Golden Globes -- and it's because he somewhat referenced Jeffrey Epstein-esque material.

The longtime standup was on hand Sunday to hand out the award for Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television -- a whole new category that the GG are starting to include ... and while acknowledging how wild that development was, JG made a jaw-dropping joke.

He was talking about how crazy it is he's even in showbiz, saying ... "I'm from a small town in Indiana, I'm not a pedophile." A handful of people laughed, but it was mostly dead silent.

Jim went on to rhetorically ask if "pedophile" was a new category there, but noted he was happy to be presenting an award for comics with big specials ... arguing it was overdue.

Eventually, he announced the winner as Ricky Gervais for his new Netflix show -- but the guy didn't show up, so Jim accepted on his behalf. The whole bit was very dry and sarcastic, in typical Jim fashion, but his crack felt like a little too soon for the ritzy crowd.

That said, some people did appear to laugh ... including Taylor Swift, who apparently found some of what Jim had to say funny, specifically toward the end his very brief set.

Warren Moon is doling out some seriously high praise on Michael Penix Jr. ... telling TMZ Sports the Washington quarterback straight up "throws as pretty a ball as mine!"

The former Huskies signal-caller didn't stop the compliments there, however ... telling us he believes the current UDub QB1 could end up being the No. 2-ranked quarterback behind Caleb Williams when the 2024 NFL Draft officially rolls around in April.

"I watch him throw," Moon said, "and I've watched a lot of quarterbacks throw the football -- and this guy throws as pretty a ball as mine."

"I think once he goes through the scouting process," the Hall of Famer added, "and goes through the combine and people watch him throw and they watch him throw in his Pro Day coming up, I think he's going to really dazzle people with his arm talent."

Moon says that while Penix Jr. put all of that on display against Texas in the Sugar Bowl -- he really expects the college football world to take note when the Huskies kick off against Michigan for the national championship later Monday night.

Moon explained ... he believes that due to UDub's location as well as the Pac-12's TV deal, not many are aware of what the quarterback is really capable of.

"He's had a tremendous two years at the University of Washington," Moon said.

Kickoff for the natty is slated for 4:30 PM ... and it's clear Moon believes his alma mater will walk away from it all with another trophy for its case in Seattle.

Nicki Minaj refusing to perform her almost-Diamond smash hit "Starships" is shocking fans, but RedOne -- the maestro who co-produced the track -- says the music mutiny is okay in his book.

RedOne tells TMZ Hip Hop, "I have the utmost respect for Nicki Minaj and I love her work very much. I will always respect an artist's wishes ... I feel very proud to have made that record with her along with the global success it made."

"Starships" first arrived in 2012 and currently sits at 9x Platinum, but Nicki told her NYE audience in Miami, live renditions of the track are a thing of the past.

As she put it, "I don't like it, what y'all want me to do? Stupid song!"

RedOne likely isn't feeling the burn, either. The superproducer has hits for days -- Lady Gaga's "Just Dance," and Usher's "More" to name a couple. He also scored a few more records with Nicki, such as "Pound the Alarm," and she's still performing that one to this day.

Lukas Gage is digging the new cast from his HBO series ... and seemingly taking a dig at his estranged husband, Chris Appleton, too.

We got the "White Lotus" star Friday afternoon at the DOGPOUND in West Hollywood and our photog asked him about the hit franchise's new faces.

Lukas says he's especially stoked about Leslie Bibb and Parker Posey, who he says is about as close to a Jennifer Coolidge type as possible.

Of course, there's no replacing Jennifer -- she was the fan favorite for the first two seasons but her character won't be back for a third -- but Lukas says Parker is a great addition nonetheless and he tells us why the show doesn't need Harry Styles' star power.

Other 'Lotus' castings include Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Dom Hetrakul and Tayme Thapthimthong.

Lukas looks pretty fit ... a classic case of post-breakup hotness.

TMZ broke the story ... Lukas is going through a divorce with his estranged husband, celeb hairstylist Chris Appleton, after a whirlwind marriage.

Lukas is already jumping back in the dating pool ... with a new Hinge profile.

We asked him why he went with Hinge over Raya, and he tells us he's looking for the "real ones" as opposed to influencers or celebs.

Before this girl decked out in her pink princess dress was owning the runway, she was just throwin' on her sparkly gold crown, taking after her famous momma and hittin' the beaches of Malibu with her older bro.

While her dad is running his booze business, her mom (who's a former top model) stays busy with her furniture company. Slaying on magazine covers ain't her only job ... she appeared on "American Horror Story" and "Mrs. American Pie."

When she's not working ... she enjoys cooking, philanthropy work and vacaying with Austin Butler.
