It certainly looks like things are gettin' serious between Pete Davidson and Chase Sui Wonders -- 'cause the two had a sweet PDA moment on their date at the Daytona 500 ... and TMZ Sports has the pics of it!!!
The comedian and his "Bodies Bodies Bodies" costar enjoyed their Sunday at NASCAR's Super Bowl in Daytona Beach, Florida -- and they were inseparable throughout the action while mobbin' around the famous racing event.
The couple toured the Daytona International Speedway track, and then, at one point, they got up into a box -- where they just couldn't keep their hands off each other.
They strapped on red earmuffs, wrapped their arms around one another, and locked lips -- all while cars whizzed by on the track just feet away.
Of course, this ain't the first time we've seen the two kissing ... just last month, they gave each other a big smooch during a date at Universal Studios Hollywood.
So as you can see, the relationship appears to be getting pretty serious.
Outside of the two lovebirds, a bunch of other celebs showed up for the race ... Tiffany Haddish, WWE's Charlotte Flair, NFL's Ian Thomas, and country singer Dierks Bentley were all there too.

When it comes to the race, Ricky Stenhouse Jr. was victorious ... earning his first Daytona 500 after 212 laps.

Paris Hilton I Questioned My Sexuality For Years ... Before I Met My Hubby
Paris Hilton has opened up more about her dating life before finally finding the one ... revealing that she thought she was asexual before meeting her husband, Carter Reum.
The reality star/entrepreneur got candid in an interview with Harper's Bazaar, saying she spent a good amount of time in her 20s questioning her sexuality. She said, "I was known as a sex symbol, but anything sexual terrified me."
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Paris has been known to date some pretty famous guys in the past ... but says she often struggled. She continued, "I called myself the ‘kissing bandit’ because I only liked to make out. A lot of my relationships didn’t work out because of that."
She says that all changed in 2019, when she met her now hubby at a friend's Thanksgiving shindig and realized they had chemistry like no other.... "It wasn’t until Carter that I finally am not that way ... I enjoy hooking up with my husband."
Of course, Paris totally glossed over her 3 previous engagements to be married before finally making it down the aisle with Carter.
One way to look at it -- if Chris Zylka, Paris Latsis and Jason Shaw didn't know why their relationships didn't work out with Paris ... they do now.
As we reported, Paris and her Carter announced they had a brand new baby last month ... after tying the knot during a luxury wedding weekend back in 2021.
Paris says Mr. Reum is finally what she deserves, and they are even hoping to add to their little family.

Lil Tjay upgraded Ice Spice's wrist game on Valentine's Day with a $150K Richard Mille watch, but before you assume what time it is ... both rappers tell us it's just what "friends" do.
Sources close to Ice Spice tell TMZ Hip Hop the duo isn't a romantic couple, but Tjay still wanted to get her something sentimental to celebrate their "Gangsta Boo" collaboration charting on the Billboard Hot 100.
NYC-based Benny the Jeweler revealed Tjay's six-figure souvenir to be an RM-05 Rose Gold, complete with a white band, and it just happened to be ready for pickup on February 14.
Ice Spice Films 'In Ha Mood' Video After Lil Tjay Gun Arrest
No surprise why the fancy timepiece is raising eyebrows -- Tjay's appearance was the lone guest contribution when Ice's debut EP "Like..?" dropped a few weeks ago.
The track would've had a video too, but Tjay got arrested for gun possession ahead of filming, forcing Ice to shoot her "In Ha Mood" video instead ... and that one's also making a splash on the charts.
Both Bronx-born artists also went halfsies on a Thanksgiving turkey drive in the heart of their hood last November -- but yep, we're still told there's no romance.
We all need friends like Lil Tjay!!!

Bill Maher Women Have Been Played by Tinder But In-Person Dating Coming Back
Bill Maher is OLD-SCHOOL -- he says men as a group are like heat-seeking missiles when it comes to sex, whereas women prioritize communication as an entry point. He thinks women got the short end of the stick over the last 10 years, but it's changing.
The "Real Time" host delivered his Valentine's Day message Friday night, grousing that the phone has been used by men to satisfy their basic instinct ... and women have played along.
Bill generalizes that women like communication ... something that just doesn't happen when the options are either "yes" or "next."
But he says there's a new/old trend -- courting people in person -- and it's kinda hilarious. Markets that have narrow isles so people can feel each other's energy. His Home Depot story may piss off lots of people, but in fairness, it's really funny.
Oh, and there's this. He says the evidence was there all along. If any guy took notice of "The Bachelor" and 1,000 other dating shows, they'd know there's still a market for meeting at the market.

DDG & Halle Bailey Breakup Rumor's Big 🧢... But Her Big Sister Takes the Bait!!!
DDG unfollowed his girlfriend Halle Bailey on Instagram earlier this week ... setting off Gen-Z breakup alarms, but he also raised suspicions and anger from one of Halle's family members.
Chloe x Halle's older sister Ski was among the breakup-believers, and posted a video Wednesday to drag her potential brother-in-law for filth -- only to take it back moments later after she spoke to Halle and realized she'd been had!!!
It's not that Ski didn't have probable cause for defending her lil' sis, though ... DDG made himself and Chloe trending targets when he scrubbed his accounts of pics of Chloe and followed up his "unfollow" of her with the since-deleted tweet, "All these girls the same 😭 ain't no wayy.”
On Wednesday, he chided the Internet for being gullible in reporting on his activity ... upsetting fans further but all's well in paradise, trolling aside.
We're told to expect a more elaborate explanation from DDG next week. We'll be all ears and eyes, and we're sure Ski will be too!!!

Leonardo DiCaprio absolutely has a thing for women many years his junior, but his latest reported romantic link, a 19-year-old model just ain't legit ... TMZ has learned.
Rumors about Leo and Eden Polani started to fly last week after the two were spotted hanging out together at a music release party in Los Angeles for Ebony Riley's EP.
A source close to Leo tells us despite a photo showing Eden and Leo sitting next to each other, they're not dating and not a couple whatsoever.
Our source says Leo and Eden just so happen to have been seated next to each other at the party, and were hanging in the same group.
Leo DiCaprio and Gigi Hadid Spotted at Same Paris Hotel During Fashion Week
Our source makes it clear ... just because Leo might be talking to or sitting with a girl doesn't mean he's dating her.
Leo ended his relationship with 25-year-old Camila Morrone last year after 4 years together. Since then, he's been linked to multiple women ... including Gigi Hadid and 23-year-old actress Victoria Lamas. Our source says Leo is not in anything serious right now.
As we reported, Leo was recently spotted on a luxury yacht in St. Barts living it up with a ton of hot women in bikinis ... so single life is doing him well.

Rachel Recchia is NOT back with Clayton Echard ... despite the 'Bachelor' stars suggesting their romance was alive and well in a recent video.
We got Rachel in Bev Hills where our photog asked if she was back together with Clayton, this after they seemed very cozy -- he had his arm around Rachel in "Bachelorette" Michelle Young's TikTok post.
While Rachel made it seem like things between Clayton and her were super complicated in the social media clip, the real story is different -- she tells us they're just friends.
As 'Bachelor' fans know, Clayton broke Rachel's heart in season 26 ... with Clayton confessing he slept with her and Gabby Windey before leaving both behind in favor of Susie Evans.
Rachel says it's taken a lot of time and a lot of healing to get over such a public diss.
Clayton's out of the picture, romantically, but Rachel still tried to keep it coy when it comes to her dating life. Although, we pressed for an answer, and she finally gave up the goods.

Swifties to Joe Alwyn Hey, Brodie ... Can You Fight??? Asked As She Hits Grammys
Taylor Swift just touched down at the Grammys -- and, per usual, her loyal fanbase seems to want to know if her boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, has what it takes to protect her at all costs.
It's a running gag among Swifties now -- anytime she steps out into the spotlight, especially on a night like this, Alwyn starts to trend on Twitter ... and the same question is asked by literally thousands of users who get a look at their icon ... CAN YOU FIGHT???
LET ME BE THE FIRST ONE TO ASK: CAN JOE ALWYN FIGHT??? pic.twitter.com/xBdwCs1xt9

Of course, they're all kidding ... but it's still pretty funny. You could argue they're asking because they wanna make sure JA can fend off any would-be punks in the street. That, or they're wondering if he could possibly take them on if they wanted TayTay for themselves.
A little toxic, but hey ... that's the what comes with a diehard following these days. 😄
Taylor Swift reassures yelling photographers that she isn't in any rush to leave the red carpet at the #Grammys. https://t.co/J4MrFEoNrG pic.twitter.com/g5zV3VNip5
— Variety (@Variety) February 6, 2023 @Variety
As for Joe himself, he was nowhere to be seen as Taylor walked the red carpet in a sweet-looking blue dress. He hardly shows up for these things anyway -- and even more rarely appears with Taylor at all in public. That's not to say they aren't together ... 'cause they are.
You'll recall ... she was just spotted out with Joe back in October of last year during a nice day in NYC -- and earlier that same summer, the two of them were seen cozying up on a romantic vacation in the Bahamas ... where they looked very much in love in the water.
Keep in mind ... she's been dating this guy -- a relatively low key British actor -- since at least 2017. So, they've been going strong for a minute now ... breaking past their 30s together.
Anyhoo, she's up for a handful of Grammys this year -- but not nearly as many as she would've been if she released 'Midnights' about a month earlier than she did. Good luck!

Tyre Nichols Wasn't Sleeping With Cop's Wife ... Stepdad Denies Rumors
Tyre Nichols was NOT having a relationship with the wife of one of the Memphis police officers involved in his brutal beating ... according to his stepdad, who is addressing a rumor that's all over the Internet.
Tyre's stepfather, Rodney Wells, denied the scandalous accusation Tuesday during a prayer vigil outside the Nichols' home, saying ... "My son was not messing around with one of the officer's wives. That's just a rumor."
1/07/23
For those unaware, there's been a rumor gaining traction online and on social media recently ... folks are claiming, without evidence, Tyre worked at FedEx in Memphis with one of the officer's wives and had a relationship with the woman.
The implication ... the cops were out for revenge. There's also unsubstantiated rumors the officer in question sent the woman a picture of Tyre after the beating.
But, Tyre's stepdad says the rumors simply aren't true ... and it's the first time the family's addressed the claims, which, frankly, are reckless.

Larsa Pippen, Marcus Jordan Secret Handshake ... Sealed With A Kiss!!!
Things are clearly getting quite serious between Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan -- the two now have a secret handshake ... one that they seal with a big smooch!!
Michael Jordan's offspring shared a vid of the couple's new intimate finger-locking greeting on his social media page Sunday night -- showing further that he and Scottie Pippen's ex are, in fact, an item.
In the clip, you can see Marcus and Larsa slapping hands repeatedly -- before Marcus, as part of the shake, put his arm over her head and pulled her in to give her a kiss.
It's a cute and romantic moment for the two -- but it also shows things have certainly progressed to perhaps official relationship status for the couple.
You'll recall, despite getting very close over the past few months, the duo has insisted they're nothing more than just good friends. But they've now each posted each other on their social media pages in the last few days -- with Larsa sharing a snap last week of the two holding hands in front of a Jordan floral arrangement.
For what it's worth, Marcus captioned his handshake video with the words, "Twistin’ up my fingers for my twin" -- something that sure seems to indicate things are heating up.
Good for them it's true love at last ... even if Scottie ain't exactly pleased to see it all.

Kelsea Ballerini, Chase Stokes We Just Can't Keep Our Hands off Each Other!!!
Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes are hiding no more, that's for sure ... these days, they are all over each other in public.
Kelsea and Chase were loving it up at LAX Saturday, kissing and hugging on the escalator and elsewhere as they said goodbye to L.A. for parts unknown.
The "Outer Banks" star and the country singer were quiet about their relationship until recently, but actions clearly speak louder than words, and their actions scream relationship!
As you know, Kelsea just finalized her divorce from Morgan Evans, but she was back on the market for a nanosecond before hooking up with Chase, so good on her!
As for Chase, he's been a free agent since late 2021, when he broke up with his co-star Madelyn Cline.
Kelsea and Chase were first linked at the College Football Playoff National Championships earlier this month. Chase confirmed to our photog that he and Kelsea were an item a few days later.
They were also hanging out in Nashville a few days ago, hitting up Robert's Western World.

T.J. & Amy ABC Tells Staffers About Exit ... 'A Distraction for So Many of Us'

Exclusive Details
- 141 shares
T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach are officially out at ABC, as we first told you, and now, the network has filled in its entire staff on the decision to let them go.
In a company-wide email sent Friday and obtained by TMZ, ABC News President Kim Godwin told staffers, "I want to share with you that we've reached a decision about T.J. and Amy."
It then includes the statement the network sent wide minutes later, "After several productive conversations with Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes about different options, we all agreed it's best for everyone that they move on from ABC News. We recognize their talent and commitment over the years and are thankful for their contributions."
Godwin informs employees that a decision as to who will co-anchor "GMA3" and "20/20" will come at a later date.
She concludes by saying, "I know that this has been a distraction for so many of us, but let's not forget all the great work that continues to make ABC News the #1 news network in America, and that's because of you. I want to thank you again for your patience and professionalism during this time."
TMZ broke the story, T.J. and Amy came to an exit agreement after an "extremely contentious" mediation went through the night Thursday into Friday morning. Both were given compensation packages.
We're told ABC execs made it clear -- the couple did not handle their romance the right way -- waiting too long to disclose it to higher-ups and that their "behavior on set" was "uncomfortable" to some staffers.
ABC also accused Robach of having liquor in her dressing room -- bottles we're told were gifted by ABC honchos -- and being drunk after attending the National College Football Championship game.
One staffer tells us, "They got what they deserved. It didn’t help that they had few friends in the building to go to bat for either of them.”

Gisele, Jiu-Jitsu Instructor Horseback Ride In Costa Rica ... Still Just Friends?!?
Gisele Bundchen and her jiu-jitsu instructor are getting close once again -- this time, the two were seen riding horses in Costa Rica, in what's either an amazing just-friends date ... or further proof the two are now an item.
Tom Brady's ex and Joaquim Valente were spotted on the animals back on Jan. 18 ... and the duo looked like they had a blast.
The couple(?) rode the horses for roughly two hours through the jungle -- and check out Gisele's grin, she sure seemed giddy while plodding through the afternoon with Valente.
Of course, there's been no official confirmation they're dating -- Gisele's camp initially claimed Valente had been tagging along on family vacays to train her and her kids -- but they've certainly appeared to be awfully coupley this month.
First, they were seen jogging while appearing to share AirPods ... and just days later -- riding horseback with none of Gisele's kids in sight.
No word yet on how Brady feels about it all ... but he hasn't been in the best mood this week.
On Monday, just seven days after the Buccaneers QB was bounced from the playoffs by the Dallas Cowboys, he snapped at his good friend Jim Gray on their podcast ... unleashing an F-bomb tirade about how he wasn't sure if he'd be retiring or not.
Seems Gisele doesn't care much about it all anymore ... Joaquim clearly, too.

Larsa Pippen & Marcus Jordan Pose Together In Front Of His Store ... Trolling Scottie?!
Larsa Pippen and Michael Jordan's son, Marcus, just went Instagram official ... and Scottie Pippen may have taken a stray in the process!
Scottie's ex-wife of 24+ years (they divorced in 2021) posed in a see-through shirt and short-shorts with 32-year-old Marcus on Monday at his Trophy Room retail boutique in Orlando ... and the two are clearly holding hands.
But, what makes the whole thing a bit awkward ... the two are standing right in front of a floral arrangement designed to look like the Chicago Bulls legend's number 23 jersey.
Of course, Scottie and MJ had a notoriously rocky relationship ... and the all-time legendary teammates are far from best friends.
Larsa has downplayed the situation from the jump, claiming several times it's not an issue because the families don't hang out.
Marcus and Larsa first sparked dating rumors when they were spotted in Miami late last year, and haven't shied away from cameras since.
Pippen previously claimed they were just friends ... but this picture says differently.

Selena Gomez & Drew Taggart Hold Hands on NYC Date Night ... Big Love in the Big Apple!!!
Selena Gomez recently said she was single, but we're not so sure about that ... and neither is Drew Taggart based on these photos.
The singer and Chainsmokers star walked hand-in-hand Saturday night in NYC, where they were on a dinner date at an Italian restaurant called Torrisi in SoHo. Check out the PDA for yourself -- definitely clear signs they're together ... but no goodbye kiss, it seems.
These shots show Selena parting ways with Drew ... and he sees her to her car, where she was flashing smiles for paps standing by. This marks at least their 2nd date in a week.
Last Sunday, they were seen out together doing a little bowling in Brooklyn. The pics in that instance didn't show anything touchy-feely ... but eyewitnesses supposedly saw them locking lips. Shortly after, Selena took to IG to seemingly deny rumors they were a thing.
She wrote, "I Like Being Alone Too Much," while adding the hashtag #iamsingle.
BTW, SG might well be ... relationship statuses these days are often ill-defined and hazy -- so maybe she and Drew are just enjoying each other's company without throwing labels on.
Still, it would seem like she's, at the very least, romantically involved with him -- and with a hand hold like this ... it kinda screams "taken!" The last two guys she was dating, publicly anyway, were The Weeknd and Justin Bieber ... but those were both several years ago.
Since then, she's been pretty low-key on the dating scene ... and hasn't sparked any real romance rumors, with photo evidence, until now. The heart wants what it wants, eh?
