"Saturday Night Live" is once again parodying President Donald Trump -- this time, taking jabs at his recent holiday speech that included the announcement of his "Patriot Games" ... in light of the Jeffrey Epstein files dropping Friday.

James Austin Johnson opens the show in his famed Trump attire, standing in front of an identical fireplace as 47 was late last week ... and immediately mocks his 'Hunger Games' idea. He says, "What’s the best way to distract from the Epstein files? I know, invite a bunch of teenagers to my house!" As you know, his "Patriot Games" is meant to showcase elite high school athletes.

The actor took another shot at Trump by criticizing his name being added to the Kennedy Center, saying in character ... "People are saying, 'Why are you putting your name on so many buildings?’ And I say it’s because we had to take it off of so many files, Epstein redacted. We had so many Trumps in there!”

This likely references the suspicion that several files -- at least 16 files, according to AP -- have gone MIA from the Justice Department’s Epstein Files drop from Friday. This reportedly includes a snapshot of Trump and images that show a painting depicting nude women.

Supermodel Anok Yai has been silently battling a congenital defect that she says is "overworking [her] heart and slowly destroying [her] lungs."

Alongside videos of her in a hospital bed, Yai shares, "What started as something asymptomatic for the majority of my life turned into a lingering cough, which turned to chest pains, bouts of coughing up blood, then at times struggling to breathe."

The Oscar-nominated star just dropped a wild video collaborating on the Liverpudlian’s "4 Raws Remix," releasing both the track and visuals with them appearing together -- which might put the rumors to bed ... except it’s 2025 and A.I. can stitch anyone together🤷‍♀️.

Either way -- undercover British rapper or not -- Timmy put his rap game all the way out there, name-checking his "Marty Supreme" film, flexing about stacking $100 mil, and even shouting out GF Kylie Jenner with the line, "It’s Timothée Chalamet chillin', tryin’ to stack $100 million / Girl got a billion."

James Van Der Beek is staying positive while talking about his stage 3 colon cancer ... saying when he first got the diagnosis, he honestly thought it might be the best thing that ever happened to him.

It’s a surprising take, for sure ... but the "Dawson’s Creek" alum explained it all on "Today" Friday, saying the diagnosis forced him to make lifestyle changes he likely wouldn’t have made otherwise.

Nancy Grace says the double homicides of Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner are a textbook example of a case that calls for the death penalty ... and that could be bad news for alleged murderer Nick Reiner.

Nancy tells TMZ ... this case is the classic example of when capital punishment should be applied, but that doesn't mean it's going to happen.

Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman mentioned the death penalty in a recent press conference, so it's being talked about among prosecutors ... but as Nancy explains, a final decision on capital punishment goes way beyond the D.A. office.

The gang's not all here for a "Stranger Things" event in New York City ... because David Harbour and Millie Bobby Brown are noticeably absent.

Terence Crawford hasn't been retired for a full week, but he's already got another fight on his hands -- albeit a legal one -- 'cause the legendary boxer has been sued by a prominent jeweler who claims Bud lied to him and screwed him over.

In the lawsuit, filed on December 18 and obtained by TMZ Sports, 38-year-old Crawford is accused of hitting up Mazza New York in February 2024 for several custom pendants for him and his team (we previously reported when Bud copped 'em).

According to Mazza, Crawford became interested in a $139k Patek Philippe Aquanaut watch while in the store, but rather than buying it flat out, Mazza claims Bud suggested he pay $35k, and then would cover the rest by promoting the jewelry store on his trunks during a fight.

Mazza says he agreed, however, when Crawford's August 2024 fight against Israil Madrimov rolled around, the jeweler claims the logo "had completely fallen off" by the 4th round.

Riley Keough was snapped out and about for the first time since a bombshell lawsuit allegation claiming she's the biological mother to John Travolta's youngest son ... and TMZ has the shots.

Pete Davidson has joined the diaper squad ... his girlfriend Elsie Hewitt has given birth!

Yup, the model officially announced the arrival of their newborn on IG Thursday ... sharing photos of their little one. She says her baby girl, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson, was born on December 12, 2025 ... last Friday.

Late "Pulp Fiction" villain Peter Greene had injuries on his body when he was found dead in his New York City apartment last week ... and authorities are still trying to figure out what caused the injuries, and what led to his death.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the actor's body was found with "some injuries but it's undetermined what caused the injuries."

John Travolta and his late wife, Kelly Preston, had three children together ... but their youngest kid is biologically a Presley ... this according to a bombshell legal document.

Priscilla Presley's former business partner, Brigitte Kruse, is currently suing Priscilla's son, Navarone Garcia, for breach of contract ... but what's way more interesting in new legal docs filed in the case is that Kruse alleges John and Kelly used Riley Keough's eggs to give birth to their son, Ben.

In the papers, Kruse alleges Michael Lockwood -- Lisa Marie Presley's ex-husband -- told her Kelly had been unable to bear her own children. Kruse claims John and Kelly previously used Lisa Marie’s eggs to get pregnant ... but they no longer wanted Lisa's eggs because they did not want “eggs with heroin" on them.

It's unclear whether Lisa Marie's eggs ever produced a child.

However, Kruse claims a deal was orchestrated where Riley -- one of Lisa Marie's daughters -- gave her eggs to Travolta, so that Kelly could give birth to Ben, who is 15 now. Kruse claims Riley was given an old Jaguar and paid between $10,000 - $20,000 for the deal.

She let the drama of the dress take center stage ... opting for a simple makeup look and doing her hair up in a sleek, slicked back bun with a single curl placed on her forehead.

Kylie gave more love to her fun 'fit on her IG story, twirling around in a video set to audio that said ... "Kylie Jenner! What? Oh my God, you look like a Christmas fairy."
