The police investigating 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' alum Kim Zolciak's son Kroy Biermann Jr. for an alleged sexual battery say they went out to the scene of the alleged crime to obtain evidence ... and they saw him and the alleged victim on video.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, the Alpharetta Police drove to the gym where Kroy Jr. allegedly forced a girl from his school to put her mouth on his penis. She also claims he digitally penetrated her despite telling him no numerous times.

The officer says he reviewed security footage from the gym ... showing the alleged victim arriving and later hanging out with Kroy Jr.

A supposed mug shot of Lil Durk is making the rounds online ... but TMZ has learned the image is bogus and is the latest example of AI slop.

The image circulating on social media appears to show the Grammy-winning rapper, whose real name is Durk Devontay Banks, with a bald head and wearing what appears to be jail clothing.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... that's not a real photo of Durk. We're told Durk currently has a short haircut, but he is not bald like the man depicted in the viral image.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' alum Kim Zolciak is firing back at allegations that her son Kroy Jr. sexually assaulted a classmate inside a gym ... claiming he even took a lie-detector test to prove it never happened.

The reality star tells TMZ ... "The allegations being made against my son are nothing short of reckless and deeply troubling. He categorically denies ever being involved with this woman or engaging in the conduct she has alleged."

Kim claims her son "voluntarily took a polygraph examination regarding these allegations and passed."

Kendall Jenner and Jacob Elordi are taking their relationship across the pond ... enjoying a date night in London, but stopping short of taking their relationship to the next level.

The two stars were spotted holding hands in England on Thursday night ... with Kendall looking like a lovely London fog in a form-fitting gray dress.

Jacob wore a stylish, dark blue pinstripe suit as he and Kendall walked around the city ... sunglasses on to protect themselves from the paparazzi's flashes.

Gayle King says Hayden Panettiere wasn't at the top of her game when Gayle interviewed her a few months before her tragic death ... but she says it was clear Hayden was trying to get better.

We got the newscaster in New York City on Friday morning ... and our photog asked her if there were signs Hayden wasn't doing well back in May, when they had their last conversation.

Gayle, who laid into Hayden's mom earlier this week for her statement after her daughter died, says there weren't "signs" of anything wrong with Hayden ... but she admits the actress was "clearly still wobbly" and still working things out -- which is why Gayle's heart sank when she heard the news of Hayden's death.

Hayden Panettiere's death is causing concern for Greenville, SC residents, who fear the actress is just the latest tragic example of the opioid crisis ravaging their city.

An addict-turned-advocate who lives in the area tells TMZ ... laced drugs and fatal overdoses have been a serious concern in Greenville for years, particularly in the area where Hayden died last Sunday.

She says the area's developed a reputation as a place where people can party and easily obtain drugs ... alleging some residents even have drugs delivered to their doorstep.

Some of the money Chris Brown is pulling in from his uber-successful nationwide tour with Usher could land in his former housekeeper's pockets soon ... a Los Angeles judge ruled she has a right to collect her judgment from what he's bringing in on tour, TMZ has learned.

Court docs obtained by TMZ reveal the judge presiding over Maria Avila's lawsuit granted her request to assign money Chris gets from royalties and tour income to her to satisfy the $13 million judgment she won in her dog attack case against him.

Chris objected to the request, but the judge apparently wasn't swayed.

Unclear if Chris will ask for reconsideration or appeal the ruling.

As TMZ first reported, Chris was ordered to pay Maria the 8-figure sum after she won her lawsuit over a vicious dog attack at his L.A. home in 2020.

Daveigh Chase's father wants a judge to deny her mother's request to be appointed as the administrator of her 6-figure estate ... TMZ has learned.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, John Schwallier opposes Cathy Chase's motion to be appointed the administrator of the 'Ring' star's estate.

Instead, the docs say Schwallier nominated a woman named Megan Boling -- who describes herself as a neutral licensed professional fiduciary -- to object to Cathy's petition and take on the job instead. If that's denied, the docs request the appointment of a public administrator.

The docs note Daveigh was emancipated from Cathy as a minor due to "allegations of financial irregularities" by Cathy ... and they were "separated" ever since.

The filing says Daveigh was actually "estranged" from both parents at the time of her death, which is why a neutral administrator should be in charge.

Darryl Strawberry has a message for anyone writing Nick Kyrgios off after the tennis star’s positive cocaine test ... ease up!

The former MLB slugger -- who famously battled drug abuse during his own playing days -- is now a pastor helping others through recovery ... and he recently spent a few minutes with TMZ Sports, making it crystal clear where he stands following Nick's positive test.

“I think it’s truly unfair when people punish people, especially athletes, that have substance abuse problems,” Strawberry told us. “I had it for a very long time and I received the same kind of treatment from the public. A lot of times we don’t understand what a person is going through emotionally, mentally, inside."

"Substance abuse is just something to escape from. You can be great as an athlete and have all the talent you want, but at the same time, when you’re broken on the inside, you need to be healed on the inside. And that’s all it is really for him.”

Brian Hickerson is breaking his silence following the death of Hayden Panettiere ... but he isn't saying much.

Brian's attorney, Sloan Ellis from the Ellis Hinton law firm, tells TMZ ... "Hayden's death remains under investigation and it is important to allow that investigation to proceed."

The statement continues ... "As has been publicly reported, police confirmed there were no signs of foul play."

It ends ... "Out of respect for Hayden's loved ones and the ongoing investigation, there will be no further comment at this time."

Mama June's daughter Pumpkin says OnlyFans is paying off in a major way ... revealing she recently had her biggest day yet on the platform, pulling in as much as $15K.

Pumpkin joined TMZ's Towanda Robinson on the "TMZ Podcast" and told us she cleared the $10K mark on her very first day after joining OnlyFans ... and says just last week she hit a new high, earning between $14K and $15K in a single day.

The reality star has no plans to leave the platform ... and she says the success has been a "huge deal" for her, and she's been humbled by the response.

Pumpkin tells us the opportunities and financial stability the platform has brought her family are major blessings.

Nick Cannon will be taking "Wild N' Out" and its hilarious jokes on the road full-time... because we've learned they're leaving their traditional format behind to focus on the live tour.

Rip Micheals -- one of the executive producers of "Wild N' Out" -- tells TMZ ... the show is officially getting rid of its traditional format, which saw the show film at a central location with an in-studio audience.

For the next season, Rip says the show will be doing a live tour and taping it ... collecting the footage from a series of different cities ... much like the hit show "Verzuz."

Ryan Lochte's fiancée, Molly Gillihan, says it's not fair for his ex-wife, Kayla Rae Reid, to call her a homewrecker ... since there wasn't much of a marriage to wreck when she entered his life.

TMZ's own Charlie Neff sat down with Molly for a wide-ranging interview after Kayla blasted her to People ... telling the outlet Molly was DMing Ryan before they split -- and calling her behavior "quite sick."

Molly says the characterization of her as the other woman is totally unfair ... because she says Kayla never said a single word about trying to work things out with Ryan ... at least in Molly's interactions with Kayla.

Patrick Mendes claims his estranged wife, Thais Ramone, stepped out on him ... and when he discovered her alleged affair, he claims she kicked him out of the house.

As you know ... Tatyana starred on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and "The Young and the Restless" -- and Julia was the leading lady in the classic flicks "10 Things I Hate About You" and "Save the Last Dance."

Drake is pulling out all the stops for his "goth baddie" Pinkchyu ... flying her to Toronto and taking over an entire castle for their latest date.

A source tells TMZ ... Drake flew Pinkchyu north of the border this past week and rented out Casa Loma -- Toronto's massive, nearly 200,000-square-foot castle -- for the occasion.

We're told the 98-room landmark was shut down except for a server, bartender, and security ... leaving Drake and Pinkchyu to enjoy sushi with the sprawling castle basically to themselves.

Because nothing goes together quite like castles and sushi!!!
