Angelina Jolie won a legal victory in court Monday ... and now it turns out Brad Pitt won't get to see 22 emails he was hoping to get his hands on in the legal fight over their French chateau.

The Los Angeles County Superior Court just ruled in Jolie's favor ... this after the appellate court found the previous judge erred when she ordered Jolie to hand over 22 emails to Pitt in connection with their ongoing winery lawsuit in December 2025. The matter was sent back to the lower court for another look. Page Six was first to report the story.

Now the lower court has decided that, though not all of these emails were sent between attorney and client, they still discussed legal strategy ... and that makes them privileged. Translation: Brad's side doesn't get to see them in discovery.

Parts of Matthew Perry's legacy are set to be sold at auction -- with some seriously iconic "Friends" memorabilia up for grabs ... all for a good cause.

A stash of keepsakes from the late actor -- including artwork, personal items and show memorabilia -- is heading to the June 5 sale via Heritage Auctions ... with proceeds going to the Matthew Perry Foundation, which focuses on destigmatizing addiction and supporting recovery.

The headline grab? A collection of 26 "Friends" scripts from major episodes -- including "The One With Ross's Tan," "The One Where Joey Speaks French" ... and the two-part finale. Even bigger -- scripts from the pilot and Part One of the finale are signed by Perry and his famous costars.

Justin Baldoni's high-powered lead attorney, Bryan Freedman, says his client is the clear winner in his drawn-out legal war with Blake Lively.

Terms of the settlement were not disclosed, but when we asked Bryan if this was a win for Justin, he told us why he felt it was a "huge victory" for his client.

Jennifer Lopez just took full ownership of her Beverly Hills home from Ben Affleck ... and now she's trying to offload it for about $50 million.

The singer-songwriter listed the home Tuesday for $49,995,000. It appears this is the third time the house has been listed since Ben and J Lo separated in mid-2024.

The couple initially listed the shared residence for about $68 million in July 2024 ... so, this is a massive discount.

Judson Mills -- longtime friend and former costar of Chuck Norris -- is shedding light on the man behind the myths ... revealing the action legend didn't just tolerate the wild stories about him, he actually loved them.

We caught up with Mills, who starred alongside Norris for years on "Walker, Texas Ranger." Reflecting on their time together, Judson described Chuck as a "legend," "icon," and "mythical creature."

According to Mills, all those wild Chuck Norris tales and internet-fueled myths were adored by the late legend and “he was super along for the ride.”

Blake Lively may have shocked some when she stepped on the Met Gala red carpet last night ... but the actress being there wasn't a last-minute decision.

A Blake insider tells TMZ ... despite her attendance at the Gala turning heads since earlier in the day, her massive legal battle with Justin Baldoni was finally settled ... her presence had been planned for weeks, as she was an invited guest by Anna Wintour.

We’re told … the 11th-hour settlement was irrelevant -- BL was going to the Met -- no matter if there was a settlement, or the trial was still on the horizon.

Tina Knowles is keeping the BeyHive on a need-to-know basis ... and right now, nobody "needs" to know anything.

Beyoncé's mom got put on the spot during her "Today" appearance Tuesday morning about the highly anticipated "Act III" album -- and she didn't exactly spill tea ... instead opting to keep the mystery shrouded.

Check out the clip ... when asked point-blank for any hints, Tina laughed it off ... playing coy with a classic dodge: "I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you."

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum Brit Eady is fighting Bravo's attempt to dismiss her $20 million battle over alleged sexual harassment on set ... claiming even her costars were shocked by Kenya Moore's actions ... TMZ has learned.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Brit is scoffing at Bravo's claim the contract she signed bars her from being allowed to sue them.

The producers said Brit -- who joined the show in Season 16 -- was not victimized and was warned that being on 'RHOA' meant she would be exposed to "stressful or emotionally challenging" moments. They say she nevertheless agreed to sign up for the show.

Blake Lively went in like a lion when she sued Justin Baldoni, but she went out like a lamb ... because TMZ has learned she got no money in the settlement.

Sources with knowledge tell TMZ ... there was a lot of behind-the-scenes drama in the Lively camp in the days before a settlement was reached. We're told Blake brought in a new law firm -- Sussman Godfrey. The firm is a litigation powerhouse ... among their legal victories -- a $425 million verdict against Google, a $1.6 billion judgment against the Baha Mar casino resort, and a $1.5 billion in an A.I. copyright settlement.

It would seem the point of bringing the firm in would be to litigate the case, but the opposite happened. The settlement statement did not even include an apology from Justin.

Michael Lohan is experiencing mounting health issues ... 'cause TMZ has learned he had a major scare after undergoing a heart surgery.

Lindsay's dad tells TMZ ... he had just had a stent placed in his heart after he had been feeling extremely lethargic and was experiencing shortness of breath for weeks. Just as he thought he was in the clear, he immediately had another medical scare.

Michael tells us this entire ordeal started a couple of weeks ago when he was folding clothes and passed out in his house. After a series of tests, doctors discovered a blockage in his heart which required a stent.

Kim Kardashian's last call came in July 2025, we've learned ... because she stayed out of the bar exam room in February -- and she won't be there in July either.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Kim plans to wait until at least 2027 to retake the bar exam after failing the test a little less than a year ago.

We're told she plans on trying again ... though whether she will in February 2027 is unclear at this time. Kim has a lot of time to mull it over -- the final deadline to sign up for the February 2027 exam is January 4 next year.

"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star Nicholas Brendon died from complications related to cardiovascular disease ... and his death has been ruled natural, TMZ has learned.

The actor was found deceased on a couch inside a Putnam County, Indiana residence on March 20, according to a report from the Putnam County Coroner obtained by TMZ. He died from atherosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease, which is caused by plaque buildup in arterial walls, per the American Heart Association. Specifically, he had a 90% blockage of the right coronary artery. Page Six was first to report on his cause of death.

He also had acute pneumonia and previously had a heart attack, which are listed as contributing factors in his death. His friend had been staying with him to take care of him as his health declined, and the friend told the coroner he had a heart attack "several years ago" but declined any further treatment at that time.

Orlando Bloom had the rumor mill going big time ... 'cause he was photographed in the Big Apple with influencer Meredith Duxbury!

Peep the pics -- the 49-year-old rolled up to Sabrina Carpenter and Madonna's Met Gala after-party Monday alongside the 27-year-old makeup star.

Now, there was no hand-holding, no PDA -- nothing indicating that they were even there together -- but people were def talking.

But TMZ has learned nothing's actually going on here.

A source tells us ... Orlando was with Luisa Laemmel last night. They say he doesn't know Meredith and was likely just walking in around the same time.

Hudson Williams has had fans "heated" over his rise to fame ... but post-Met Gala, he got a cold, hard reality check -- ditched at the wrong hotel in a chaotic mix-up!

Peep the clip -- the "Heated Rivalry" star looked fully lost, rolling deep with his crew after getting dumped at the wrong hotel around 6 AM Tuesday ... brutal comedown from a big night!

Yeah, it was definitely a sight -- Hudson was rocking no pants during the whole ordeal, but don’t get it twisted ... it wasn’t a party casualty, that was just his Met after-party look.

There wasn't any diva meltdown over the situation, though ... just a casual street cross and a quick car swap to course-correct.
