Dating

Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee Simmons' 21-year-old daughter is dating a 65-year-old guy -- with whom she's on vacation right now -- but Papa Bear isn't trippin', or so it seems.

The Def Jam co-founder tells TMZ he spoke with his daughter, Aoki, a day before the news came out she was romantically involved with Vittorio Assaf -- the founder of Serafina Restaurant Group -- which came to light last week through PDA-filled vacay photos of them.

The couple is out in St. Barts right now -- and shots of them smooching have gone viral ... not to mention invoking the wrath of social media, but Russell says he's not stressing it.

Comedian Jerrod Carmichael's joke about race-based role-playing with his white boyfriend isn't getting as many laughs as it is raised eyebrows and anger.

The controversial quip came on HBO's "Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show" ... where JC says, "I sometimes joke to him that our relationship is like that of a slave and a master's son ... who, like, teaches me how to read by candlelight."

Just that opening line drew some jeers, but Jerrod pressed on, "Yeah, he groans too 'cause he's a good person. He doesn't like that f***ing joke. I like that joke. That's my burden, I think that s***'s hilarious!!'

Love is in the air for Scottish actor Ross McCall, who appears to now be dating Pat Sajak's daughter, Maggie.

The new couple was spotted in L.A. last week sharing a smooch on a hand-in-hand stroll with his dog ... but at the time, the identity of Ross' new flame remained a mystery.

Lo and behold, the woman is 29-year-old Maggie -- 19 years younger than her new 48-year-old boo.

NeNe Leakes says she's okay with letting a little infidelity fly, but clarifies ... if you're gonna cheat, at least do it with some class.

Yup, you heard right -- 'RHOA' star Nene explains she's all about the "what you don't know, won't hurt you" philosophy! She was on IG live with Carlos King when she said, if a man's getting down with his side chick on a weekend trip -- and she's none the wiser about it -- that's pretty darn respectful in her eyes.

NeNe elaborates on her cheating etiquette -- saying those who lie to their side pieces by claiming they're the only one, and further, don't tell the side piece to keep a respectful distance from their main squeeze ... are definitely not playing by the rules.

More evidence to support the Johnny Manziel and Josie Canseco dating rumors -- the former college football superstar made another appearance on the model's social media on Thursday ... and once again, the proof is in the hand tats.

Manziel and Canseco were both in NYC this week ... and as we previously reported, it appeared the two took the flight to the Big Apple together, as the former MLB star's daughter shared a pic that showed the quarterback in the background.

If the couple(?) was trying to keep a low profile, that's all out the window now ... 'cause Canseco posted a short video at dinner -- and it's clear Manziel was right by her side.

Kristin Cavallari may be a new mom in the future -- at least that's what she's saying ... 'cause her boyfriend wants to have kids.

The reality star explained on her "Let's Be Honest" podcast that her 24-year-old BF, Mark Estes, has his sights set on being a dad -- and because of this, she's been mulling over potentially popping out another baby with him, assuming everything works out.

So far it looks like Kristin -- who's currently 37 herself -- might be leaning towards expanding her brood ... even joking with her cohost her future little one could become so famous it'd be her one-way ticket into retirement ... 'cause the kid would be so freaking good looking.

Gwyneth Paltrow has been romantically linked to a lot of famous dudes over the years -- and now, she's letting the public know she handled them all one at a time ... exclusively.

The actress was doing an Ask-Me-Anything Friday -- fielding questions from fans and followers on Instagram ... and somebody asked her if she'd ever considered a "poly" relationship, meaning dating more than one person at a time.

Well, Gwyneth answered that pretty emphatically -- responding, "No thanks!” Paltrow wrote in response, adding, “Not for me but have no judgment. I’m a one man kinda gal."

Ariana Madix está extendiendo sus alas en el mundo de los realities show, ahora como anfitriona de "Love Island USA", luego de la salida de Sarah Hyland de la franquicia.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que la estrella de "Vanderpump Rules" se convertirá en la nueva anfitriona de "Love Island USA" en su próxima temporada, lo que significa que va a sustituir a Sarah, quien ha estado como conductora durante las últimas dos temporadas (Temporada 4 y 5).

En términos de por qué ocurre este cambio, nuestras fuentes dicen que Sarah se va porque optó por otra oportunidad que estaba buscando y dio la casualidad de que ese proyecto estaba agendado para ser filmado en el mismo período que "Love Island USA".

Ariana Madix is spreading her reality TV wings even further -- now jumping on over to "Love Island USA" to take on hosting duties ... this as Sarah Hyland exits the franchise.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the "Vanderpump Rules" star is set to become the new host of "Love Island USA" next season -- meaning she'll be replacing Sarah ... who's been in the driver's seat for the past two seasons (Season 4 and 5).

In terms of why this is happening -- our sources tell us Sarah is leaving because she took another job opportunity that she wanted to pursue ... and it just so happened to be shooting during the same time frame she'd be needed for 'LIUSA.'

Shakira y Lucien Laviscount tienen a todos pensando que podrían estar saliendo, y no solo porque fueron a cenar juntos, sino por el papel que interpreta Lucien en su nuevo video musical, donde aparece como el chico que le gusta a la estrella del pop.

La cantante y la estrella de "Emily in Paris" salieron a cenar el martes por la noche en Nueva York, después de la actuación sorpresa de la artista colombiana en Times Square. Fueron a comer a Carbone y llevaban trajes negros a juego.

También parecían estar entrando en el mismo SUV, y aunque no había signos definitivos de cariño en público, el hecho de que aparecieran juntos en sí mismo, puso en marcha una ola de rumores de que podrían estar saliendo como pareja.

Shakira and Lucien Laviscount now got everyone thinking they may be dating -- and it's not just 'cause they grabbed dinner ... he also plays her love interest in a new music vid.

The singer and "Emily in Paris" star hit the town Tuesday night in NYC -- following her surprise Times Square performance -- and they chowed down at celeb hot spot Carbone ... rocking matching all-black outfits as they came and went.

They also appeared to be getting into the same SUV ... and while there were no definitive signs of PDA -- the fact they were rolling together, in and of itself, kicked the rumor mill into overdrive ... namely, the notion they might be together as a couple.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce dejaron a los entusiastas del fitness de Los Ángeles esperando mientras se apoderaban de un gimnasio de West Hollywood para una larga cita de entrenamiento privado.

La pareja cerró el gimnasio Dogpound el lunes durante dos horas, dejando a los miembros del gimnasio esperando afuera con cara de confusión. Échale un vistazo a las nuevas imágenes que muestran a varios miembros del gimnasio esperando en la acera con agua en la mano.

El gimnasio Dogpound es uno de los favoritos de Taylor, ya que a menudo reserva todas las instalaciones para sesiones de entrenamiento privadas. Recordemos que una vez intentó que echaran a Justin Bieber del gimnasio en 2020 cuando se pasó de la raya durante su entrenamiento privado.

11:34 AM PT -- We've gotten some much-needed clarification on what exactly is happening at the gym Taylor Swift frequents whenever she drops in for a workout -- and while it's not nearly as dramatic as it was made out to be ... she does, in fact, get special treatment when she's there.

A rep for Dogpound tells TMZ ... "Dogpound is a by-appointment establishment. We value members' experience and have never had anyone wait outside for 2 hours. The narrative running in the media does not accurately reflect circumstances. We respect the privacy of our clients." On the issue of who these people outside were, they wouldn't say.

Lucky for us, we found the answer another way ... sources familiar with this gym tell us that several of the folks pictured in workout attire are actually Dogpound employees -- whom, we're told, do have to get out when Taylor swings by to get some exercise.

A college basketball player seemed to suggest Kylie Jenner was recently trying to holler at him -- but unfortunately for him ... that couldn't be further from the truth, TMZ has learned.

23-year-old UNC shooting guard Paxson Wojcik was leaning into this notion that Kylie was interested in him in the digital world -- at least based on a video a reporter took of him after a game last week ... where the interviewer name-dropped the beauty mogul directly.

Check it out ... Paxson gets peppered with questions by this guy post-game, and the line of questioning is pretty direct -- "What do you have to say about rumors that Kylie slid into your DMs???" BTW, there really weren't any rumors until his homeboy floated this online.

Kristin Cavallari's lookin' head over heels for her new man Mark Estes, holding hands and flashing sweet looks on their way to dinner in L.A.

The happy couple strolled into Sugarfish -- a classy sushi joint in ritzy Beverly Hills ... and KC was dressed to impress, hot leather pants pulled up high.

The couple grabbed a bite to eat before having a car pick them up ... and, Cavallari even helped a pap figure out who the 24-year-old looks like -- pointing to one legendary actor.

Watch the clip yourself to hear the comparison ... and, check out the demeanor too. Lots of laughin' and flirtin' -- great to see the new couple's still in that honeymoon phase.

Remember ... Cavallari went public with her relationship not long after we posted photos of her and Estes hangin' out down in Cabo -- lookin' fabulous while riding a tram at the airport headed for customs.

Cavallari's since detailed more specific info about her new dude ... taking to her podcast to talk about how fate seemingly brought the two together.

And, the happy couple seems to be gettin' serious -- 'cause Cavallari shared a snap where Estes appeared to be deep in convo with one of her three kiddos ... definitely looks like more than just casual dating.

Gisele Bündchen está abordando de frente los rumores sobre un posible engaño, asegurando que nunca dio un paso fuera de su matrimonio con Tom Brady, y alegando que las habladurías comenzaron "porque ella es mujer".

La modelo, que estuvo casada con Tom desde 2009 hasta 2022, realizó una entrevista con The New York Times, donde finalmente se refirió a los comentarios de que engañó a Brady con su instructor de jiu-jitsu Joaquim Valente.

En la entrevista, Bündchen calificó directamente de mentiras las afirmaciones, al mismo tiempo que dijo que no estaba buscando que su vida fuera una gran historia sensacionalista.

Pero Gisele ofreció su teoría de por qué los rumores parecen cobrar fuerza y ella lo atribuye a una actitud sexista hacia las mujeres cuando se trata de rupturas, alegando que estas siempre tienen la culpa cuando terminan relaciones poco sanas.

La madre de dos dice que lo mismo pasa con cualquier mujer que termina con su pareja, solo que esto es amplificado con ella debido a que es un personaje público.

También confirmó que está saliendo con alguien, aunque no dijo el nombre de Joaquim, añadiendo que esta relación es muy diferente a cualquiera de sus parejas anteriores, mucho más abierta y honesta, según Gisele Bündchen.

Fuimos los primeros en contarles que fuentes cercanas a Tom nos habían dicho que él no se creía la línea de tiempo de la relación de Gisele, diciendo que piensa que estos empezaron a salir en 2021.

Mientras tanto, Bündchen se emocionó mucho al hablar de Tom durante una entrevista con Robin Roberts de ABC hace pocas semanas, diciendo que no quería divorciarse del ex jugador de la NFL, pero que al final necesitaba hacer un cambio.
