Beauty

Lamar Odom is way beyond first impressions with the Lakers ... but, all the same, he got a fresh shave of his head for a meeting with the team on Monday ... TMZ has learned.

Lamar's barber in the Valley, a dude named Enzo, hooked up the troubled NBA star Monday morning -- and even gave LO his trademark star on the back of his head ... which he sported during past seasons with the Lakers.

Our sources tell us Lamar met with Laker execs Monday afternoon to discuss terms of a possible return. We're told things went well -- though nothing's been signed -- and that Lamar's first choice has always been to return to the Lakers.

It's pretty amazing ... a little more than a month ago Lamar was smoking crack and deep in the throes of drug addiction. But as we first reported, Odom has been adamant he can cut off his drug abuse without going to rehab.

It remains to be seen if an NBA team buys that (and we know Khloe Kardashian isn't) -- but as one source put it ... lately Lamar has sounded more like his old self.

On his Instagram, Lamar's barber wrote, "Wish em the best of luck in his meeting wit the Lakers today."

Andie MacDowell's looks are stuck in a time loop.

Here's the 35-year-old star at a premiere of the movie "Groundhog Day" back in 1993 (left) -- and the now 55-year-old mother of three at a studio in New York City earlier this week (right).

Deja vu.

The question is...

Katie Holmes has broken out of her frumpy phase in a SERIOUS way ... strutting around the streets of NYC today looking downright sexy.

Of course, Katie has never really been unattractive, but there was a rough period ... right before she broke things off with Tom Cruise.

But after the two split in 2012, Katie began a Tiger Woods-style comeback ... in the hotness department ... going from a 9 back to a 10.

Nice work.

Go ahead ... take a good look.

That's Marilyn Manson -- AKA Brian Hugh Warner -- getting all actor-y on the set of the TV show, "Eastbound & Down" ... where he's shooting a cameo role this week. This is his intense look.

Manson is a huge fan of "EB&D" ... and has reportedly been lobbying the producers for the last couple of years to cast him in the show ... and it finally paid off. But he must have seriously confused the makeup people on the set ... since he arrived looking, well ... pretty dang normal.

This is the HBO comedy's 4th and final season. No word on when Manson's episode will air.

But he's ready for his closeup.

Days after being officially renamed to the USA national team, soccer goddesses Alex Morgan and Sydney Leroux celebrated by hitting the beaches in Hawaii this weekend ... in very tiny bikinis.

The Women's World Cup tournament is still 2 years away, but qualifiers begin in Fall 2014 ... and the team is scheduled to take on Australia and New Zealand in some friendly matches later this month.

Enjoy the free time while ya got it.

Holy crap ... Ke$ha just posted some racy new lingerie pics ... and she looks INCREDIBLE!!!

Butt ... did the pop star really tone up her body -- or are the new pics the result of some creative camera work?

Here's the deal -- Ke$ha posted the pics on her Instagram page yesterday, which feature the singer showing off her G-string'd ass in various sexual poses.

In the pics, Kesh looks WAYYYY different than she did strolling the beach back in 2011 (see below).

It's a Colombian face-off!

Here's 41-year-old Colombian born and "Modern Family" star Sofia Vergara posing in a little black dress (left) -- and 25-year-old second generation Colombian and "Spy Kids" actress Alexa Vega in an equally little and equally black dress (right).

David Beckham in his underwear used to send our newsroom into a frenzy -- but something's happened to him since retiring from soccer, and the proof is in his ... nipples.

Don't get us wrong. We'd still do him.

Baltimore Ravens badass Terrell Suggs ripped Tom Brady apart ... trashing the QB for his smug attitude, his god-like status … and worst of all, HIS HAIR!!!

Suggs spit the venom during an interview with ESPN's "E:60" when Lisa Salters asked T-Sizzle how he truly felt about the Pats superstar. T's response:

“I don’t think it’s appropriate for camera. I don’t like him. He don’t like me. I don’t like his hair.”

Suggs will have a chance to tell Brady how he feels about him in person on Dec. 22 – when the Ravens take on the Pats.

Still, we gotta ask …

In case you haven't seen the images, 2K14 LeBron is WAYYYYY balder than 2K13 LeBron ... and conspiracy theorists are suggesting the designers are anti-LBJ fans who were just trying to troll the guy.

But we spoke with a rep for the company behind the game ... who tells us the digital art is simply imitating real life -- "We strive for current realism with all our players."

LeBron now joins the ranks of other legendary bald video characters ... including King Hippo, Dhalsim, the guy from Hitman, Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man and Kirby.

Congrats.

Don't screw with supermodel Miranda Kerr's schedule ... cuz if you do, she'll tear you apart in public -- like she did today when she ripped her "stupid driver" after he took her to the WRONG fashion show in Paris.

Miranda -- who's in the French capital for Fashion Week -- was already late when she arrived by car at the Louis Vuitton show ... then discovered -- to her horror --- that she was supposed to be at a completely different place ... the Vionnet show.

With no time to lose -- and her rep clearing a path on the sidewalks ... Miranda raced to the Vionnet show -- not easy to do in high-heeled, thigh-high boots.

Watch ... she's clearly not happy about her fashion faux pas ... and blames it on her "stupid driver."
