Blake Lively scored a massive victory against Justin Baldoni in her "It Ends With Us" legal war ... and she's feeling pretty damn fantastic about it, TMZ has learned.

A source close to Blake tells TMZ … the actress was feeling "grateful, vindicated and relieved" after the judge threw out the lawsuit filed by Baldoni and Wayfarer Studios on Monday morning.

We're told Blake's proud she stood strong and used her voice ... and thankful the judge saw through the other side's charade … and ruled Justin’s counterclaims can’t be used as retaliation.

Diddy's ex-girlfriend "Jane" is providing some interesting behind-the-scenes color in her testimony ... telling the jury she was with Diddy at his Miami estate when he got some bad news -- the Cassie beating video had just been released on national TV.

The woman testified Monday she was with Diddy at his Star Island home when the Cassie assault clip first aired on CNN in May 2024 ... and she said they first learned about it when there was a knock on their door.

Jane said one of Diddy's adult sons came to the bedroom and told his father, "Something happened." She told jurors Diddy then went to huddle with his team and his family, and she gave them space.

6/10 8:00 AM PT -- In an earlier version ... TMZ inaccurately reported that Justin Baldoni's lawyers filed a motion to dismiss Blake Lively's claims in her lawsuit.

Justin Baldoni just lost BIG in his legal war with Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and The New York Times ... because all of his claims against them have been dismissed.

A judge threw out the lawsuits filed by Baldoni and his Wayfair production company Monday, according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ, dealing a huge blow to the Baldoni camp.

As you know ... Justin and Wayfarer were suing Blake and Ryan for $400 million and the New York Times for $250 million, alleging defamation over an article about all the drama on the "It Ends With Us" movie set ... a story Baldoni alleged was a part of a smear campaign against him.

Harrison made sure to thank everyone, even taking a moment to hug the videographer filming her triumphant return.

The 2025 BET Awards have the unlucky circumstance of being centered smack dab in downtown L.A. as the city's most aggressive ICE protests are happening, but the show must go on ... with close supervision from cops, of course!!!

A rep for BET tells TMZ Hip Hop ... the network will remain committed to the safety of their guests and staff for "culture’s biggest night" ... and is monitoring the situation and working closely with LAPD.

There's a riot goin' on and we're not talking about the dearly departed Sly Stone.

President Trump took his Border Czar's comments about arresting California officials -- including the state governor and the mayor of L.A. -- to the next level Monday, declaring he would have Gavin Newsom arrested immediately.

On Saturday night, the second night of street protests -- some quite violent -- against ICE arrests of undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles County, Trump's Border Czar Tom Homan appeared to threaten to put California Gov. Gavin Newsom and L.A. Mayor Karen Bass in handcuffs if they got in the way of the federal raids.

“I’ll say it about anybody,” Homan said, responding specifically to whether his threat of detaining any obstructionist included state officials like Newsom and Bass. “You cross that line, it’s a felony to knowingly harbor and conceal an illegal alien. It’s a felony to impede law enforcement doing their job.”

Omarion is all about love and harmony swirling through his bones and wants DDG and Halle Bailey to adopt the same mantras -- bad breakups didn't get invented with them!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with mighty O outside the annual Culture Creators event for BET Weekend, where he relayed a message of grace for the young parents.

The National Guard has descended on Los Angeles under President Trump's orders to respond to violent protests against ICE immigration raids ... and TMZ has learned what troops are currently authorized to do amid the chaos.

A source with direct knowledge tells TMZ … troops deployed in L.A. are operating under the "standard rule for use of force" -- and that means de-escalation is the primary focus and goal.

We're told troops are authorized to use force ONLY in self-defense ... and deadly force is NOT authorized.

Waymo’s self-driving cars can dodge traffic -- but not angry crowds ... 'cause multiple vehicles got totally wrecked during the immigration protests over the weekend.

Downtown L.A. turned into a battleground with Waymo’s self-driving cars set ablaze, flames ripping through the fleet as anti-ICE graffiti covered every inch -- and the chaos was so intense, the company’s been forced to yank its vehicles from the streets.

Waymo’s now issued a statement saying their cars are still running in L.A. -- but with the coordination and guidance of the LAPD, they’ve decided to pull out of downtown "out of an abundance of caution" after the fiery attacks.

It's time for battle, and today's stringy bikini face-off is between American model Alexis Ren vs. American actress and model Erica Mena.

Both lovely ladies are posing with pride and confidence, but which bikini babe are you untying first? Alexis's black 2-piece or Erica's white n' bright 'suit ...

The question is: Who'd You Rather?!
