Devon Still's Daughter Leah's New Health Scare ... NOT CANCER!

Published | Updated

Great news for Devon Still and his family -- the ex-NFL player's daughter, Leah, is IN THE CLEAR after doctors feared her recent medical scans showed signs of cancer.

BOOM!!!

You know her story ... Leah has bravely battled and "beat up cancer" ever since she was diagnosed with stage-4 neuroblastoma in June of 2014. She's been cancer-free for 4 years.

But recently, doctors found something suspicious during one of her checkups -- and ran several tests to see if her cancer had returned.

Devon had asked for prayers for Leah and the family -- and this week, they got the good news ... IT'S NOT CANCER!!

Still documented the whole process on his YouTube channel. It's a raw experience, especially when he asks Leah if she's willing to fight cancer again, to which she responds:

"Yeah, I will. It's just that I don't want to lose my life."

Leah was a champ throughout the entire MIBG scan procedure -- which, according to the Cleveland Clinic, is "used for localization of known or suspected neuroectodermally derived tumors."

The Stills got the best news this week ... and Devon let Leah adorably share the awesome update.

"Guess what, guys? We got good news. Uh huh! The scans were clear. Mhm! Thank you, everybody, for praying for me."

Leah stays undefeated!!

Jada Pinkett Smith on 'Surviving R. Kelly' I Had to Protect Willow as a Child ... And I'm Glad I Did

Published | Updated

Jada Pinkett Smith says she fended off potential creepers from Willow at a young age -- and in light of "Surviving R. Kelly" ... she seems grateful she did.

Jada released another episode of "Red Table Talk" Monday, which continued a conversation with alleged R. Kelly victim Lisa Van Allen who explained why she gravitated toward the singer. She says the fact she was orphaned played into her embracing him.

It's just as emotional as their last segment, with tears being shed in recounting her experience.

IT'S SO GOOD TO BE HEARD

At one point in the convo, Jada reveals she had to have some serious talks with Willow as a young teen -- Willow's now 18 -- to warn her about the dangers of the world, and people who might want to take advantage of her. She says she told Willow she couldn't be alone with certain people, no matter how close Willow thought she was with them.

For her part, Willow says she didn't understand why Jada was so strict at the time but now gets where her mom was coming from ... especially in the wake of 'Surviving.'

Chrissy Teigen Meet Mini-John ... But, Which One's Better???

Published | Updated

Chrissy Teigen's throwing a birthday bash for her hubby John Legend tonight, and she's asking for help from her fans on what to wear ... for her son.

Chrissy shared a couple beyond adorable shots of the couple's 7-month-old son Miles in a black tuxedo and a white one, adding ... "need your help dressing mini-john. Which one!"

She also added a poll -- which as of now has nearly 400,000 votes -- and the baby white tux is ahead big time with 67 percent.

John's 40th bday was actually in late December, but the family's celebrating Saturday night ... and there's no doubt Miles' outfit will be a hit.

No word if Luna is dressing as mini-Chrissy ... but we wouldn't doubt it.

R. Kelly Thinks Daughter's Brainwashed ... Blames Ex for Turning Her

Published | Updated

R. Kelly is rationalizing his daughter's powerful condemnation of his behavior -- he believes his ex-wife cooked it all up, despite the fact he's been estranged from their child for years.

Sources close to R. Kelly say ... the R&B singer isn't upset with Joann Lee Kelly for breaking her silence and calling him a "monster," because he thinks his daughter was only parroting her mother, Drea Kelly's views. We're told he feels Drea's brainwashed all 3 of their kids into hating him.

Although our sources say Kelly loves and misses his kids, he seems to be ignoring the reality -- that he has no relationship with them -- and hasn't for some time now.

Kelly did have a musical collab in 2015 with Joann, who is a talented singer -- but we're told he thinks Drea drove a wedge between them after that, because she was furious Joann had been in the studio with him.

We're told Drea brought their kids to an R. Kelly concert in Atlanta a couple years ago, but since then he's had little contact with them, and he has no clue why things switched up.

However, anyone who's seen "Surviving R. Kelly" knows exactly how Drea feels about her ex ... and it ain't good. Worth nothing, Drea told us earlier this month she's open to Kelly reaching out to the kids because they're all adults now and free to make their own choices.

Joann seems to have made her feelings extremely clear, but we're told her father wants to repair the relationship.

North West is not your average kid ... she put on her Sunday best for a Friday night out at one of the glitziest restaurants in all of L.A.!

North joined Aunt Kourtney Kardashian and Grandma Kris Jenner in WeHo for a meal at Craig's. Check out what looks like a $1,000 Fendi tracksuit and $400 Fendi slides.

Corey Gamble, who's becoming a longtime BF of Kris, was also on hand but no sign of Kim or Kanye.

The night out was a little much for North, who was half asleep as she left on Corey's shoulders.

Layzie Bone 1 Step Closer to Getting Maury Povich'd Over Baby Girl

Published | Updated

Layzie Bone's getting dragged to court in a new paternity case ... TMZ has learned.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services has filed a paternity complaint against the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony rapper (government name, Steven Howse) on behalf of the baby's mother, Shateira Marketa Childress.

The baby's name is Sevyn Isreal Childress-Howse ... born in May 2018. The date of conception is listed as September 2017. The Department of Health and Human Services is looking to establish Layzie as the father in order to determine how much dough the rapper will have to fork over in child support.

It's interesting ... back in 2013, a different woman claimed in a paternity suit Layzie was the father of her one-and-a-half-year-old child, and it turned out she was right.

He's also the father to 3 other kids. We've reached out to Layzie ... so far, no word back.

Kim Kardashian We're Starting a Sunday Service! Ye Leads Choir 'Rehearsal'

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting in touch with God ... by having a choir sing some of Kanye's songs and calling it a "Sunday Service."

KKW has been posting a ton of videos on her Instagram story throughout Sunday morning which shows Kanye leading a full choir in what appears to be a private studio, as they sing old and new tunes of his, like "Heard 'Em Say," "Father Stretch My Hands," "Lift Yourself," "Reborn" and others.

Interestingly enough ... we didn't hear "Jesus Walks" in any of her posts.

Kim tweeted about the gathering, saying, "Our new Sunday Service is starting. Check out the rehearsals on my Instagram stories." She didn't add much context to what the "Sunday Service" entails or when exactly it's starting ... but it seems they're ramping up for a church venture of some sort.

BTW ... Kid Cudi's in the studio too, as is baby Chicago -- who's big enough now to get her groove on.

Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber Famous Model Son Presley Arrested for DUI

Published | Updated

The son of Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber -- who has become a force in the modeling world -- ended the year on a bad note ... getting arrested for DUI.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... cops pulled Presley Gerber over Sunday at around 4 AM in Beverly Hills for speeding in his Tesla. Cops say he reeked of booze, so they gave him a field sobriety test ... which he failed.

The 19-year-old model was booked for DUI and released without bail.

In California, it doesn't matter what his blood alcohol level was ... there is zero tolerance for underage drivers who drink. A .01 will get you arrested.

If convicted, Presley will automatically have his driver's license suspended for at least 1 year.

Presley's lawyer, Scott Spindel, tells TMZ, his client has no criminal record and has never been arrested, adding, "Presley Gerber takes this very seriously and is taking the necessary steps to address the allegations."

Presley's still a teenager but he's already huge in the modeling world. He's been signed to IMG for several years now and has done campaigns for Calvin Klein, Doce & Gabbana and Paris Vogue.

Tekashi 6ix9ine Bad Santa ... Skipped Out on Daughter's Xmas Gifts

Published | Updated

If Tekashi 6ix9ine made a Christmas list this year, he must have forgotten to check it twice ... because his daughter got jack squat from her dad.

Sources close to the rapper's family tell TMZ ... his baby mama, Sara, and their 3-year-old girl, Saraiyah, have not heard a peep from him since he's been locked up on federal racketeering charges, and that includes Christmas Day.

We're told while 69 managed to gift his girlfriend Jade a brand new G-Wagon while he's behind bars -- which she proudly flaunted on Instagram -- but he didn't deliver anything to Saraiyah for the holidays.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Our sources say 6ix9ine hasn't exactly been a present father to Saraiyah, despite the image he's tried to project online ... so the absence of gifts isn't a big surprise.

It's interesting ... 69 was present for his girl's 3rd birthday party in October -- just hours after he dodged jail time in his child sex case -- and looked happy to be hanging with his family.

There's a bright side, though -- we're told despite Saraiyah being forgotten by her father, she got a lot of nice Xmas presents from the rest of her family ... and has plenty of love and support.

Our sources say Sara's trying to get her daughter into child modeling too ... no word if Tekashi's on board to help.
