Kieran Culkin finally got his wife to hold up her end of their bargain ... 'cause his better half's pregnant, months after he revealed she promised him four kids if he won an Oscar!
The actor rolled up to opening night of "Waiting For Godot" on Broadway with Jazz Charton -- his wife of more than a decade -- and, he put his hand protectively on her belly ... and she's clearly with child!
The two are positively beaming in the photos ... with Culkin looking particularly proud of himself -- since he sorta manifested this whole situation.
Teyana Taylor has been flexing her triple-threat traction all 2025 -- which might consummate with her holding a golden trophy!!!
TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Teyana in NYC, promoting her hit comeback album and its accompanying short film, "Escape Room."
The last time we caught up with the Rose from Harlem a couple months ago, she was bracing for vocal surgery to repair some damaged cords ... she tells us her recovery's been going so well, she's plotting her tour for the top of 2026!!!
Sydney Sweeney sounds like she may be punching her way to her first Academy Award ... based on what we're hearing about her upcoming boxing movie.
Sydney is starring in "Christy," a film chronicling the life of boxer Christy Martin, and it's set to premiere Friday afternoon for a select audience at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Our sources tell us the studio behind the movie, Black Bear, tested the flick and it "tested through the roof."
We're gonna give you a little insider info here -- there's never a dull moment at the TMZ office, but some days can be pretty ruff!
Way back in 2012, our top dog Harvey Levin met the pooch who portrayed Jack in "The Artist" and appealed to the Academy to let the canine performer attend its annual Awards Ceremony -- before being bitten when he tried to pet the four-legged actor!
"The Artist" won plenty of awards that night, including Best Picture and Best Actor, and yeah, the pup got his time on the red carpet ... and we're sure he got plenty of treats that night!
We wanna see if you can guess who this actor is -- and we don't think you're doomed to fail this one!
We caught this Oscar-winning actor in 2024, just after he picked up a Golden Globe for his work in "Oppenheimer," and he'd eventually take home an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor ... sounds like a pretty good awards season to us!
Oh yeah, and we asked him about making a return to the MCU about six months before he announced he'd be switching from superhero to supervillain in "Avengers: Doomsday" -- how's that for a good call?!
Will Smith is addressing his infamous Oscars slap -- and all the baggage that came with it -- head-on on his new album.
Smith's album "Based on a True Story" dropped on Friday -- his first full-length solo project in 20 years, and it immediately confronts the fallout from slapping Chris Rock.
The album's opening song, "Int. Barbershop - Day" -- featuring DJ Jazzy Jeff and B. Simone -- kicks off with the line, "Will Smith is canceled."
The biggest honor in entertainment means nothing to Ben Stiller -- at least in comparison to his beloved New York Knicks' success ... 'cause the actor said he'd rather have an NBA title than an Oscar!!
The comedy legend and "Severance" director admitted just how crazy he is about his basketball team on the latest episode of Travis and Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast ... when he admitted he'd be perfectly content with never getting a statuette in his trophy case -- as long as Larry O'Brien comes back to New York.
Stiller joked a Knicks title is a lot more likely ... so he's "definitely down" for it to play out like that.
Chelsea Handler and Ralph Fiennesare spending time together and having some fun ... giving things a trial run before possibly making their relationship official.
The comedian and the "Conclave" star sparked romance rumors this weekend after being photographed leaving the Vanity Fair Oscar Party together ... and now we know a little something about their status.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Chelsea and Ralph are testing the waters and keeping things casual for now, they're not exclusive or officially dating just having fun.
Conan O'Brien's well-landed joke halfway through Sunday night's Oscars -- about Kendrick Lamar calling Drake a pedophile -- was nearly left in comedy purgatory, sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ Hip Hop.
Last night, Conan used a commercial break return to poke fun at the halftime cue for Kendrick to shade Drake, in a nod to rap's biggest moment last year, and last month's Super Bowl show (see below) ... but we're hearing both the Academy and ABC had strong reservations about getting the joke in, and pushed back in fear of how the crowd would react.
One particular producer made the case and fought the powers, because they firmly believed in the joke. Whether good or bad, the gag was bound to have a big, audible reception!!!
Tony Todd's family is fuming at the Academy Awards ... and it's all because the late actor's name wasn't included in an annual segment honoring those who died.
The "Candyman" star's widow, Fatima, tells TMZ ... she's angry the Oscars snubbed Tony from the In Memoriam tribute.
Tony's widow believes there's a racial element at play here too ... telling us she feels like people of color and women are often ignored as much as possible when it comes time for the Academy to honor the dead.
The results could be pretty interesting -- and we've got a hunch where Timothée Chalamet stands in all of this -- but this may be closer than expected.
Shannen Doherty’s death last year was a devastating loss to the industry ... so it came as an even bigger shock that she wasn’t honored in the Oscars 'In Memoriam' segment, her loved ones tell us.
A longtime rep for Shannen tells TMZ it was really disappointing not to see her included in the tribute Sunday night, especially since she had been a part of the Hollywood community for over 45 years.
Fans were shocked by the snub too, calling out the Academy for ignoring her death -- some called it "disrespectful," while others said even if she wasn’t honored, Shannen would always be in their hearts.
Paloma Diamond* -- the super famous Hollywood actress -- suffered another disappointing loss at the Academy Awards on Sunday night, marking her 20th Oscar nomination gone up in flames.
TMZ caught up with the sad-eyed Paloma outside NYC's iconic Dakota apartment building, where John Lennon was fatally shot in 1980 (yikes!), to grill the film sensation on what went wrong for the umpteenth time at the Oscars.
Well, at first, Paloma tried to stay mum on the ugly sitch, but we pressed her until she finally spilled her guts ... telling us the Academy needs to "look into itself," when it comes to voting. And, she gave the Academy even more hell, but you'll have to watch the clip to catch it all.
Conan O'Brien's joke writer wants everyone who missed the comedic timing of his Oscars bit about Kendrick Lamar and Drake's beef to just say that -- there was no malice on the host's part!!!
Skyler Higley, who penned the part about needing to "call Drake a pedophile" after the commercial break, tells TMZ Hip Hop ... "The idea that it’s being taken as a real call-out or taking sides in any way in the beef is absurd."
Social media immediately started buzzing with accusations Conan joined the Drake hate train in favor of Kendrick Lamar ... but Higley's been writing jokes for Conan since his late-night TV show days and says he knows a master at work when he sees one.
Demi Moore’s Best Actress Oscars loss was a jaw-dropper -- but people are saying the icon losing to much-younger Mikey Madison was the ultimate insult, especially since her movie "The Substance" explored the very clash of new versus old.
The 62-year-old played an aging, insecure actress who turns to a black-market drug to become a younger, more perfect version of herself -- and viewers couldn’t help but see the cruel example on Hollywood’s biggest night when it was 25-year-old Mikey up onstage, the embodiment of everything Demi's character feared.
While Demi had dominated awards season, picking up accolades at the Golden Globes, Critics' Choice, and SAG Awards, it wasn’t enough for the Oscar win -- and reactions poured in thick and fast online.
The 2025 Oscars was only the start of the celebration of cinema Sunday night ... as the biggest stars flooded Hollywood after-parties to continue the festivities -- including the iconic Vanity Fair shindig, of course.
A-listers brought their A-game to the renowned VF red carpet ... with Julia Foxwowing the crowd with a completely mesh dress from Dilara Fındıkoğlufor. She covered her assets with extra-long hair extensions that strategically cascaded down the barely-there gown.
Olivia Wilde also took a note from the nearly-naked playbook ... sporting an ethereal sheer dress from Chloé Spring/Summer 2025 collection that used ruffles on its plunging neckline to cover her chest.
