Nikki Bella I Believe John Wants Kids But, I Still Have My Doubts About Marriage
John Cena's very public campaign to win back Nikki Bella is working, but she's still not ready to seal the deal with the wrestling/movie star.
Nikki tells TMZ, John's public hand-wringing -- including posting a photo of John Cusack holding the boombox over his head in the film "Say Anything" -- has convinced her his change of heart about wanting kids wasn't hollow. She says, "I believe 100% he wants kids. It makes me want to run back and jump into his arms."
She says she believes he's now sincere that he wants children ... which was the deal breaker that caused her to break up with him. Until this week, Nikki believed she had forced John to say what she wanted to hear so she'd take a walk down the aisle.
Here's the problem ... Nikki says it's kind of been like a Pandora's Box. The conflict over children has raised issues in her head about the relationship. She says, "I care about him and love him a lot," but now she has to do some serious thinking about the turn in their relationship and feel if it's still right.
She says she's really hurt by the buzz that the whole conflict -- and even the relationship -- is fake to goose ratings for her reality show and John's career. She says, "A lot of people get married for publicity. I'm not like those reality show people. I don't want to be hesitant. I want to do what my heart says."
Nikki says she has no idea what she'd say if John comes face-to-face with her and begs her to marry him. She says, "I'm a girl who lives in the moment and I honestly don't know what I'd say."

Mac Miller's DUI Arrest No Nikes on My Feet ... But, Sweater's on My Face Leaving Jail
Mac Miller walked out of jail Thursday morning not wanting to talk about his DUI arrest -- and, apparently, not wanting folks to see his face either.
We got Mac leaving the slammer in Van Nuys late Thursday morning, where just hours earlier he had been locked up for allegedly crashing into a power pole and fleeing the scene ... all while drunk.
Our camera guy asks the hard questions. Why did he allegedly bail from the crash site? How much had he had to drink? What did he say to cops to get a glowing suspect review? And is this in any way related to his recent split from Ariana Grande?
Mac was having none of it ... although, we did get a groan out of him. Talk about no comment.
Ariana just tweeted, "Pls take care of yourself."

The rapper filed legal docs, obtained by TMZ, which show he makes about $175k per month from various sources (music, investments, etc.) and he has more than $8.3 million in cash in the bank. Nas lists his monthly expenses at $76,834.04 and that includes $20,245.70 that goes to helping various family members, including his father.
The rapper also reveals he pays $15k per month in rent.
Nas disclosed his financial info because he and Kelis are at war over child support. She says $8k per month ain't cutting it anymore.
The judge has yet to decide how much she'll get.

"I love her. I want to be with her. I want to make her my wife. I want to be the father of her children. I just want us to work."
Cena has been pretty vocal about the fact he didn't want kids -- but says he's a changed man now.

Colton Haynes Files for Divorce From Jeff Leatham
3:35 PM PT -- TMZ has obtained Colton's divorce docs, which don't list his and Jeff's date of separation for now ... but do cite irreconcilable differences. He's asking a judge to terminate spousal support for both of them. He also signals each will pay his own attorney's fees.
Colton Haynes and Jeff Leatham are officially headed to splitsville, and it's clear who pulled the plug on the relationship -- because Colton's filed for divorce.
The "Teen Wolf" star filed docs Tuesday in Los Angeles just 6 months after he married Jeff last October in a star-studded wedding in Palm Springs officiated by Kris Jenner.
TMZ broke the story ... Colton and Jeff broke up just last week. Colton later tweeted, "Jeff would never cheat. He is an amazing man. Please stop being mean to him."

Blac Chyna She's Worth Less Without Kardashian Ties
Blac Chyna's value has plummeted at clubs across America, and the reason is simple -- her wagon has been unhitched from the Kardashians.
BC's turning 30 next week, and we're told she's spread the word to promoters she's available for club bookings. We did a little digging and turns out Chyna's earning power has fizzled since breaking up with Rob Kardashian (unless waging courtroom war counts).
The numbers are staggering -- BC went from booking gigs that paid her up to $30k not too long ago in her heyday with Rob & Co. ... to now struggling to snag more than $7k per gig.
That's what several top club promoters in Cali told us, and it gets worse. One promoter said he wouldn't pay her a penny more than $5k because Chyna without Rob is like Sonny without Cher.
A top Miami promoter said the max he'd shell out is $2k because she's not relevant anymore.
BC's new boo isn't helping financial matters ... this according to one promoter who said her relationship with 18-year-old rapper YBN Almighty Jay, who can't even get into a 21-and-over club, is just whack.

The star-studded wedding in Palm Springs was officiated by Kris Jenner ... other guests included Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Sofia Vergara, Billie Lourd and Joe Manganiello.

Johnny Manziel Domestic Violence Photos Released
The Dallas Police Dept. has released the entire Johnny Manziel domestic violence case files ... complete with witness and victim statements ... and photos of the victim's injuries from the 2016 incident.
Manziel had been indicted for misdemeanor assault over the incident with Colleen Crowley. They had dated for 2 years but were broken up on the night of the attack.
Crowley told police she and Manziel met up at a hotel on January 29 and planned to spend the night together. They began having a discussion about "him being with a girl who had caused us problems in the past."
Crowley says she told Manziel she was going to sleep on the couch -- and that's when he threw her on the bed.
In the report, Crowley says Manziel told her he was just being playful but "it frightened me." At that point, Crowley says she told Manziel she was leaving.
Crowley told police Manziel followed her and threw her to the ground, telling her, "I'm not going to let you leave."
Eventually, he agreed to drive her to her car. Once in her car, Crowley says Manziel was driving and she tried to get out and hide in some bushes but Manziel tracked her down and forced her back in the ride.
Crowley says she injured her back when Manziel threw her into the car -- causing bruises and pain.
Once inside the car, Manziel allegedly struck her in the face with an open hand -- rupturing her left eardrum.
"She felt like she was going to die or get beaten really bad," the police report says.
Eventually, Crowley got back to her apartment with Manziel. She tried to FaceTime her parents but Manziel got mad, grabbed her phone and smashed it on the ground.
Crowley says she grabbed a knife out of fear for her safety -- and that's when Manziel ran out of the apartment. She then ran to a neighbor's house and screamed, "Johnny Manziel just beat the s*** out of me."
The neighbor called 911.
Eventually, prosecutors charged Manziel with misdemeanor assault. He struck a plea deal and was ordered to complete anger management, a domestic violence impact panel and was barred from contacting Crowley.
Manziel has since completed the terms of his plea deal and the case has been closed out -- which is why cops are now releasing all of the files.

Madonna Loses Lawsuit Over Tupac Letter Auction ...
1:00 PM PT -- The auction house just announced they'll start the auction in July.
Madonna won't be able to put the brakes on the sale of an old jailhouse letter from Tupac that's being auctioned off because of a release she signed almost 15 years ago ... TMZ has learned.
A judge has thrown out Madonna's lawsuit against Darlene Lutz, Madge's old pal and art consultant, saying a release she signed back in 2004 means she couldn't sue over the sale of the letter.
According to the judge's order, Lutz had received several items over her two-decade-long relationship with Madonna, and when they ended things Darlene got to keep some stuff.
The judge's view was that if Madonna didn't want the Tupac letter to be sold, she should've never signed the release.
Madonna claimed that she never knew Darlene even had possession of the letter, which was deeply personal since Tupac touched on their breakup.

Arie Luyendyk Jr. & Channing Tatum From One Bachelor to Another ... Live Life in the Fast Lane!
Channing Tatum is single again, so it'd only make sense that he chop it up with one of the most famous bachelors to play the field ... one Arie Luyendyk Jr.
Arie and Channing were hanging out Sunday in Birmingham, Alabama for the Honda Indy Grand Prix, where Channing was serving as the grand marshal of the race ... and, apparently, also got to ride around with Arie for a few laps on the track.
The ex-'Bachelor' even filmed a video of the two of them addressed to his fiancee, Lauren Burnham, in which Channing admitted he was about to do something stupid.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
As you might've heard, Arie's happily engaged now -- but that doesn't mean he couldn't have lent some advice to Channing ... who recently separated from his wife, Jenna Dewan, after nearly nine years of marriage. Our guess -- put it in the rearview, bro ... literally.
Either way, it's telling this is Channing's first public appearance since the news of his split broke ... chillin' with a former bachelor. Everyone's moving on just fine, it seems ... even Jenna.
