Webbie Strikes Deal in Dom. Violence Case ... NO Jail Time

Published | Updated

Webbie will not spend a day behind bars for allegedly beating and choking his girlfriend, because he's worked a pretty sweet plea deal.

According to the East Baton Rouge court clerk ... Webbie agreed to plead guilty Thursday to a misdemeanor charge of simple battery and was sentenced to one year of probation.

He'll have to keep his nose clean during that time, complete 20 hours of community service and anger management classes. The court also ordered him to pay $5k in restitution to his ex-GF and $500 in court fees.

As we reported ... Webbie was arrested last July after allegedly getting violent with his GF in a hotel room.

He was charged with 2nd degree battery, false imprisonment and domestic abuse by strangulation ... all felonies -- and photos of the girlfriend's alleged injuries were pretty rough.

The felonies could have meant serious prison time, but now he just has to stay on the straight and narrow for a year.

Chris Pratt isn't slow-playing the whole "meet my girlfriend" thing with his kid -- 'cause the trio was looking like a picture-perfect fam Wednesday in Malibu.

The "Jurassic World" star was with his son, Jack, and his new boo, Katherine Schwarzenegger, for a dinner date at Soho House. The good news for Chris ... Kat and Jack seem to be getting very familiar with each other.

Remember, they all just went to church together Sunday and afterward grabbed some sweet treats ... for Jack and Chris.

Can't blame Chris for moving things along at a brisk pace -- Anna's definitely done the same with her BF in the time since she and CP filed for divorce.

Kudos to Chris and Anna -- based on Jack's happy face, this looks like textbook co-parenting.

TMZ broke the story in February ... the couple called it quits less than 2 years after their wedding and were no longer living together. We later found out Meyer filed the divorce docs January 29 in Texas.

Richie Sambora Orianthi & I Can Still Jam ... Despite Taking a Break

Published | Updated

Richie Sambora is in an incredibly good mood despite some sad news in his love life -- and it might be because he's down to keep a working relationship with his now-ex.

We got the Bon Jovi guitarist Wednesday at LAX just a day after he and longtime GF Orianthi announced they were taking a break to focus on family and other endeavors. Richie echoed what he and O had already promised their loyal fan base ... we'll be back.

TMZ broke the story ... Richie and Orianthi issued a joint statement saying they were temporarily ending their 4-year relationship -- thanking fans for supporting their music act, RSO, and vowing to rekindle in the future for more tunes.

Sounds like Richie's still down for future collabs, and doesn't seem the least bit bummed out about the split. He's mum on ex-wife Heather Locklear though ... who's been dealing with her own problems of late.

Nothing prudish about these shots of "Jane the Virgin" and Joe LoCicero frolicking Tuesday down in Tulum, Mexico. All this fun went down shortly after Gina posted shots of herself with a huge rock on her left ring finger -- so, they could be celebrating more than a bday.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Gina hasn't announced she and Joe are engaged ... yet, but she was still wearing the ring during their wet and wild makeout session. All signs suggest she said "yes."

Fun fact -- LoCicero is an actor too, best known for playing the role of Don Quixote Stripper on ... "Jane the Virgin."

Faith Evans & Stevie J Eyeing $40 Mil Yacht To Host Wedding Bash!!!

Published | Updated

Faith Evans and Stevie J's quickie Vegas wedding ain't gonna cut it ... which is why they're planning a lavish Miami ceremony on a massive luxury yacht.

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ ... Faith and Stevie are serious about locking down The Vessel, a 222-foot yacht that's really more like a cruise ship. They recently toured the $40 million craft, and loved the fact it's got tons of space for up to 600 guests.

We're told Faith asked about the ability to film on the yacht, which has us thinking VH1 cameras will capture the elaborate ceremony for Stevie's reality show, "Leave It to Stevie."

The ceremony could smooth things over with friends and family who, as we first reported, were pissed the couple didn't give 'em a heads-up about the surprise marriage.

We're told Faith and Stevie didn't even discuss a budget when they toured The Vessel.

As they say ... if ya gotta ask, ya can't afford it.

Slash's Estranged Wife Thinks His GF is Trolling Her on IG ... Exposing Family Info

Published | Updated

Slash's estranged wife is on a search-and-destroy mission to find the person she says is putting her children at risk and accusing her of being a horrible mother.

Perla Ferrar filed docs in divorce court over hundreds of Instagram posts that reference private family info, as well as information and photos relating to the children's activities and whereabouts. Perla says the posts also accuse her of being an "unfit mother and child abuser."

In the docs, Perla says the culprit is most likely someone connected to Slash. She goes even further, insinuating it's his live-in girlfriend, and says she even asked Slash for any information he might have about the account. Interestingly, the IG handle for the account is "altperlafhudson."

She says Slash initially said he would cooperate, but according to the docs ... he reneged once it became clear the offender was someone "with private direct access to the Hudson family." According to the docs, most of the incriminating posts were deleted shortly after she asked Slash for the info.

Perla wants the court to force Slash's internet service provider to disclose all IP addresses that have been used to control the IG account in question.

NO ONE'S SHOOTING THAT SHOT

John Cena isn't putting on an act -- he was REALLY in love with Nikka Bella and it "sucks" that she kicked him to the curb ... so says ex-WWE superstar JTG.

"I know John Cena was really in love with her. I've never seen him like that," the former Cryme Tyme tag team member told us while sitting in a Lamborghini in Beverly Hills.

JTG says he's known Cena for a long time -- including during his marriage to ex-wife Elizabeth Huberdeau -- but explains, "I've never seen him head over heels for a female like he was with Nikki."

As we previously reported, the couple decided to end their relationship for good after quasi-attempts at a reconciliation.

JTG also had some kind words for Brian Christopher Lawler -- and tells us why Grandmaster Sexay belongs in the WWE Hall of Fame.

And, as for JTG's wrestling future ... we asked if there's a chance he returns to WWE.

Chris Pratt Kisses Katherine Schwarzenegger ... But, Only After Church

Published | Updated

Chris Pratt and Katherine Schwarzenegger are officially a couple -- a churchgoing one at that -- but they won't really show it until they're out of God's purview.

The recently-single Hollywood stud was spotted on another date with Arnold and Maria's 28-year-old daughter Sunday -- this time with his and Anna Faris' son, Jack, tagging along ... not to mention JC. The trio hit up a church service in L.A. and ice cream afterward.

It wasn't until Chris and Kat were out of the Lord's house that they smooched a bit ... not once, but twice! Seems like things have gone well since their Santa Barbara picnic last month.

As for Jack, we're guessing he's getting used to his parents' new boos since they filed for divorce -- Anna certainly hasn't shied away from having her new BF step in as stepdad.

Pete Davidson His Ariana Bunny Tattoo is Missing

Published | Updated

3:00 PM PT -- Sources close to the couple tell us there is no trouble in paradise. Davidson covered up the ink temporarily for a movie role.

Pete Davidson appears to have wiped a symbol of his fiancee, Ariana Grande, off his body ... and now the question is ... why?

The 'SNL' star was spotted Sunday in L.A. without Ariana by his side -- but, more importantly, WITHOUT his jet-black neck tattoo of her trademark black bunny mask.

Pete got the Ariana-inspired ink behind his ear early last month by tattoo artist London Reese, who posted a shot of his work on social media at the time. Now, you can still see traces of the tattoo ... but it definitely looks more faded than what it once was.

He also got a thumb tat with Ariana's initials, but you can't tell here if he's still rockin' that.

Here's the thing ... Pete's in the middle of shooting a movie with Machine Gun Kelly right now, and it's quite possible that he simply had the tat covered with makeup for the job.

Pete and Ariana just recently got engaged, and he already reportedly covered up another forearm tat that was dedicated to his ex.

Faith Evans & Stevie J Already Talking Babies ... 'He Ain't Shooting Blanks!!!'

Published | Updated

If Faith Evans knows one thing about Stevie J it's that he's good -- really, really good -- at making babies, and the newlyweds definitely have baby fever.

We got Faith and Stevie talking for the first time about their surprise Las Vegas wedding. They insist the hookup is NOT a publicity stunt, and explained why they decided to go all the way.

The R&B duo's heard some of the negative reaction to their marriage, but say they're ignoring all the haters. As we reported, some family members are pissed they didn't get a heads-up.

They got really excited though when we asked if they plan to have babies. You gotta see Faith declare her baby factory is open for biz.

As she put it, we all know Stevie can make it happen ... with 6 kids of his own already.

Looks like they got in a damn good dress rehearsal while shooting the "A Minute" music video.

Floyd Mayweather Sr. I Got Hitched!! ... Secret Vegas Ceremony

Published | Updated

Floyd Mayweather Sr. is now a married man -- TMZ Sports has learned the 65-year-old tied the knot in a low-key ceremony back in February ... and we've got the pics to prove it!

Sources connected to the situation tell us ... Floyd and Lois Ann Roberts hit up the Stained Glass Wedding Chapel in Vegas on February 4 and swapped "I Dos" in a very quick and quiet ceremony.

The place offers special Elvis-themed weddings -- but Floyd opted for the more traditional option. Too bad!

We're told Floyd's famous boxing superstar son was NOT at the wedding. However, our Mayweather sources say Floyd Jr. is really fond of Sr.'s new wife -- they've known each other for decades and he considered her family even before things became official.

Sooooo ... congrats!!!

Justin Bieber No More Tunes Before the Wedding ... That's a No Brainer, Bruh

Published | Updated

NEXT ON THE TO-DO LIST

Justin Bieber is getting his priorities in order on the heels of a new hit song ... implying that his wedding with Hailey Baldwin will come before any more new music.

JB was out with his fiancee Sunday in NYC when he got asked by a bunch of paps what's next after releasing a new track with DJ Khaled called "No Brainer." He didn't hesitate long for an answer ... Justin says getting married was the most immediate item on his agenda.

This also appears to be the first time Bieber acknowledges Hailey as his bride-to-be on camera. She was a bit more bashful than he was being put on the spot, but sure seemed to appreciate the sweet shout-out.

We broke the story ... Justin proposed to Hailey earlier this month in the Bahamas. She obviously said yes, and was more than happy to flaunt the huge engagement ring he bought for her ... which set him back $500,000 give or take.

They've been inseparable since getting engaged, and it seems even the prospect of conquering the charts isn't that a big deal to the Biebs with marriage on his mind.

Cardi B Post-Baby Bod Looks Even Better Sittin' on a Lambo

Published | Updated

Cardi B's latest photo makes it hard to believe she gave birth to her daughter less than 3 weeks ago ... and makes you wonder if her new whip's got enough room for a car seat!

Cardi just showed off her post-baby bod for the first time since she and Offset welcomed their daughter, Kulture, into the world on July 10, and we gotta say ... she's lookin' hot!

It doesn't hurt she and her hubby are also flaunting 2 hot new Lamborghinis. She captioned the pic, "Blessed & Gifted ... Official Lamb Owners."

As we reported ... Cardi dropped a bombshell this week by announcing she's backing out of touring with Bruno Mars this fall to "recover mentally and physically" after becoming a mommy.

The new push present(s) should help.

Beach Boys' David Marks He and Wife Arrested ... In Domestic Dispute

Published | Updated

No good vibrations here -- longtime Beach Boys member David Marks was arrested in a domestic dispute with his wife, but it sounds like she was the instigator ... according to law enforcement.

We're told police responded to a dispute earlier this month in the San Fernando Valley between David and his wife, Carrieann Marks. After investigating, cops placed both David and Carrieann in cuffs and hauled them off to jail.

David was arrested and booked for resisting, delaying or obstructing an officer -- a misdemeanor -- and Carrieann got busted for domestic violence against a spouse ... also a misdemeanor. They didn't look too happy in their mug shots ... usually no one is.

The details of the incident in question remain unclear.

However, Carrieann tells TMZ that the whole thing was a misunderstanding, and "we are happier than ever." She says they have plans to celebrate David's 70th birthday in the South of France next month -- and neither have any plans of pressing charges.
