Massive rough patch for Macklemore -- masked bandits hit his Seattle home, swiping thousands in jewelry and bear-spraying the nanny while kids were inside the house.

Check out this dramatic doorbell footage -- the nanny, shaken and desperate, banged on a neighbor’s door, seeking refuge ... after two men wearing black outfits, vests and face masks broke into the home very early Saturday morning through a patio door.

The nanny reportedly told police the intruders sprayed her in the face with bear mace and demanded to know where the jewels were kept ... she said one of the men yelled at her, "Where are the jewels, b****?"

The top federal prosecutor in Southern California has issued a stern warning to an alleged rock-throwing Los Angeles protester — we're coming for you!

On Monday night, the U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, Bill Essayli, released a wanted poster with a photo of Elpidio Reyna and a video purportedly showing him hurling stones at federal agents in vehicles driving by him.

In a statement, Essayli said Reyna can run, but he can't hide after tossing rocks at the agents departing from a command center in Paramount — a city in L.A. County where demonstrators protesting the Trump administration's immigration raids turned violent on Saturday.

Julie Chrisley is back in the spotlight -- and back to blonde!

The reality TV star was seen over the weekend in Nashville rocking a fresh new hairstyle, ditching her post-prison brunette-and-gray look for a more familiar shade ... blonde. Fans who ran into the "Chrisley Knows Best" star shared the images on TikTok.

The 52-year-old looked happy and upbeat as she posed with two young fans. She wore a blue blouse, jeans, and a full face of glam.

Diddy's ex-girlfriend had a lot more to say about their relationship Monday on the 19th day of witness testimony in his criminal trial ... telling the jury about a violent exchange, and recalling the moment Diddy found out the Cassie beating video had been published.

The day began with the judge delaying a decision on Diddy's defense motion for a mistrial ... the decision will come down Tuesday morning, after prosecutors submit their response. This is all in relation to some prior testimony from Cassie and a friend about an alleged incident where Diddy held the friend over a balcony at Cassie's home.

"Jane" was back on the stand for more testimony, answering questions from prosecutor Maurene Comey ... telling jurors about a violent incident at her home.

Diddy's ex-girlfriend "Jane" is providing some interesting behind-the-scenes color in her testimony ... telling the jury she was with Diddy at his Miami estate when he got some bad news -- the Cassie beating video had just been released on national TV.

The woman testified Monday she was with Diddy at his Star Island home when the Cassie assault clip first aired on CNN in May 2024 ... and she said they first learned about it when there was a knock on their door.

Jane said one of Diddy's adult sons came to the bedroom and told his father, "Something happened." She told jurors Diddy then went to huddle with his team and his family, and she gave them space.

11:00 AM PT -- Las Vegas detectives identified Manuel Ruiz as the suspect. Ruiz walked into a Henderson police station and turned himself in on June 9, 2025. He was taken into custody and will be booked into the Clark County Detention Center for two counts of open murder with a deadly weapon.

The famous Las Vegas Strip turned into a double-murder scene Sunday ... after a gunman went on a rampage, fatally shooting two people in front of a crowd of stunned tourists.

Even more shocking ... the shooting was live-streamed on a YouTube channel as the violence was unfolding on the sidewalk outside the Bellagio Hotel.

11:47 AM PT -- The temporary restraining order Taylor filed has been granted.

Taylor Swift says an ex-convict keeps showing up at her house uninvited, falsely claiming she's the mother of his child ... and she says he even changed the address on his driver's license to her Los Angeles residence.

The pop star beelined it to court Friday and filed for a temporary restraining order against a 45-year-old man named Brian Jason Wagner ... who he claims has been harassing her for years, starting when he was incarcerated.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Taylor claims Wagner showed up at her L.A. estate on consecutive days in May, asking to see her and telling her security team he was there to check on a friend ... which Taylor says is a bunch of baloney.

Police plan to take Travis Decker -- the Washington man accused of savagely killing his three young daughters -- alive when they track him down ... despite the military veteran's dangerous reputation, and the fact he's possibly armed.

Chelan County Sheriff Mike Morrison tells TMZ it's unclear if Decker has weapons ... but they are tracking him diligently and hope to come into contact with him soon ... and their Plan A is to detain him peacefully.

Of course, it's possible Decker will get aggressive with authorities -- and Morrison says any use of force by law enforcement to neutralize a threat "will be determined by what is reasonable and necessary at the time."

The jury room on the 26th floor of the Patrick Moynihan Federal Courthouse has the feel of a multimillion-dollar Manhattan penthouse apartment ... this is where 12 jurors and 6 alternates report for duty each day before going into the courtroom to hear testimony in the case of Sean "Diddy" Combs.

Staffers from the Executive Administrator’s Office at the SDNY United States Courts gave TMZ a tour.

The courtroom is one of six “special proceedings” courtrooms inside the courthouse in Lower Manhattan. The courtroom carpet is blue with a gold pattern -- an original from 1995, when the building opened.

A huge debate is brewing in the Diddy trial that threatens to derail the prosecution's case — and now the judge must decide whether to grant a mistrial.

We'd like you — our loyal readers — to weigh in before the big decision comes down. So, we've put together a little poll for you to vote yea or nay on this very question of a mistrial.

But first ... here's the back story so you can make an informed choice.

The military vet who allegedly killed his 3 daughters in Washington state is still at large — and police have released new photos of him in an attempt to find him.

On Saturday night, the Chelan County Sheriff's Office issued a wanted poster with some fresh pics of murder suspect Travis Decker.

One of the new photos captures Decker walking in a t-shirt, shorts and sandals, and another we've seen before shows Decker walking inside a building with a goatee and sunglasses resting atop his head. The last couple photos highlight tattoos on his arms and another shows his Converse sneakers.

Travis Decker's search history contained a lot of questions about moving to Canada just before his daughters went missing ... according to the U.S. Marshals Service.

In a new affidavit filed earlier this week, Deputy Keegan Stanley of the U.S. Marshals Service explains officers obtained Decker's search history around the time the warrant for his arrest was issued.

On May 26, 2025, Stanley writes Decker allegedly searched several questions including ... "“how does a person move to canada”, “how to relocate to canada”, and "jobs canada."

The alleged victim in the bizarre crypto kidnap-torture case is starring in yet another short film  -- but this time it's no sex tape ... but rather a new video of his daring escape from the "House of Horrors" in NYC.

TMZ obtained exclusive footage of Italian entrepreneur Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan hightailing it down a sidewalk in Manhattan's posh Nolita neighborhood after he broke out of the townhouse his alleged captors, John Woeltz and William Duplessie, were renting. Cops say the three men were business partners in a Bitcoin venture.

The video -- dated May 23 -- starts off with a uniformed NYPD traffic enforcement agent strolling down the sidewalk, followed by Carturan -- clad in a black outfit with no shoes on -- frantically running up behind him.

Diddy's 17th day of trial might have been the most shocking yet ... taking the court on a roller coaster ride through Bryana Bongolan's second day of testimony -- and resulting in Diddy getting a warning from the judge.

The mogul was back in federal court Thursday, and the day started with Bongolan taking the stand again for her second day of testimony.

The defense hammered her on the date she alleged Diddy held her over the edge of the balcony ... arguing it can't be September 26, 2016 as she said because Diddy was in New York at the time.

Another Diddy accuser took the stand Thursday, diving into her sex life with the mogul ... and dishing on the pet names they had for one another.

"Jane" -- an alleged victim testifying under a pseudonym in the trial -- says she dated Diddy from 2021 up until his arrest last year. She told the jury intimate details of their relationship ... saying the two watched a lot of pornography while hooking up.

Jane said they had one conversation about fantasies while watching porn together in May 2021. Jane said she left the room to use the bathroom, but, when she came back, Diddy was on the phone and told her the two could have a freak-off that night.

Sex parties and X-rated pranks -- not exactly kidnapping and torture, but new bombshell videos and photos reveal that kind of wild, bacchanalian atmosphere during the bizarre crypto kidnapping case that's landed John Woeltz and William Duplessie in jail.

TMZ obtained this footage showing their alleged victim -- Italian businessman Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan -- hanging out, grinning and frequently shirtless, with other partygoers inside the Manhattan townhouse Duplessie and Woeltz were renting.
