DON'T COMPARE TRUMP TO MY DAD!

Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter says President Trump can better honor her father on the 50th anniversary of his assassination with real life actions ... NOT tweets.

We talked to Bernice King on Wednesday about Trump's remembrance to Dr. King, which he did on Twitter. Granted, it's his favorite platform to address the world ... but for Bernice it rings a little hollow.

She admits, it's not realistic to hold POTUS to MLK's standard, but thinks we should be encouraging Trump to better embrace her father's ideals.

Bernice also told us how she and people across the country will mark the moment Dr. King was shot and killed in Memphis.

Channing Tatum No Break from Daddy Duty

Published | Updated

Channing Tatum doesn't look like he has the weight of the world on his shoulders after his separation from Jenna Dewan ... but he does have their kid up there.

Channing was spotted out Wednesday for the first time since news broke of his split with his wife of almost 9 years. He was leaving Target in Studio City carrying the ex-couple's daughter, Everly, on his shoulders and carrying a bag of goodies.

We saw Jenna out solo on Tuesday after a SoulCycle class in WeHo.

As we reported ... Channing and Jenna called it quits on their marriage, saying "love is a beautiful adventure that is taking us on different paths for now," but the 2 plan to keep being dedicated parents to Everly and maintain a working business relationship.

Kardashians Blac Chyna Can't Sue Over Smack Talk

Published | Updated

The Kardashians have fired back at Blac Chyna, saying they're legally allowed to call her all sorts of names without getting sued for defamation.

The family wants a judge to toss Chyna's claim she's been defamed because the sisters said, among other things,"The show [Rob & Chyna] is giving this toxic woman money and exposure she lives and breathes for and by continuing it ... [s]he will proceed with using and physically abusing my brother."

The family also said Chyna was "tarnishing" their brand, "damaging to [their] family and a threat to Rob's safety."

According to legal docs, these statements are clearly subjective opinions and too vague to be provably false.

The docs note there have been court decisions protecting comments such as calling plaintiffs a "loser," "a big skank" and "a top-ranking dumb ass."

YouTube Shooter Made Contact With Local Police ... Hours Before Shooting

Published | Updated

The YouTube shooter had a run-in with cops just hours before she opened fire at the media company's headquarters -- but they apparently thought nothing was amiss.

Nasim Aghdam's father, Ismail Aghdam, says he and his family had reported his daughter missing in Southern California before police in Mountain View, CA -- about 30 miles from YouTube HQ -- contacted them early Tuesday morning.

He says cops told him she'd been found and everything was "under control" -- despite Ismail claiming he'd initially told authorities she might go to YouTube because she "hated" the company for allegedly censoring her videos.

Mountain View police confirm officers encountered Aghdam Tuesday asleep in her car in a parking lot. They ran her plates and found it matched the description of a missing person, and when officers made contact ... they concluded all was well, notifying her family.

Hours later, she shot and injured 3 people at the YouTube campus before killing herself.

UP IN THE AIR

He's not "officially" retired ... but Kristin Cavallari says she's pretty convinced her husband Jay Cutler is finished in the NFL.

"I think he's done," Kristin said on SiriusXM's "The Jenny McCarthy Show" ... "It's not official. But yeah."

Kristin says 34-year-old Jay is still trying to figure out his professional future and noted he has "a few offers on the table" ... but she didn't say if those offers were from NFL teams or media outlets looking for a broadcaster.

Of course, Jay signed a 1-year deal with the Miami Dolphins in 2017 to take over after starting QB Ryan Tannehill went down with a knee injury. Cutler threw for 2,666 yards with 19 TDs and 14 interceptions ... not terrible.

Cavallari has said she supports Jay no matter what decision he makes -- but it's obvious she's ready for the QB to hang up his cleats already.

In fact, she talks about how Jay has been working weekends as an NFL player for years and she's ready for him to spend ALL of his Sundays with their kids.

RECALLING THE INCIDENT

We got Alexis, who's also 18, speaking out for the first time about Sunday's melee, which she says started when she spotted Chyna's daughter, Dream, in a stroller. Alexis says Dream was being pushed by a nanny and Alexis complimented the nanny on how cute Dream was.

Alexis claims she patted Dream's hand, which Chyna noticed and warned her not to touch the kid ... and 15 minutes later threatened to whoop her ass.

Alexis claims a physical altercation started with Chyna's bf, YBN Almighty Jay, punching her and her sister several times. Alexis claims she never traded blows with Chyna, and Six Flags security quickly intervened, advising everyone to go on their way without filing a report.

A source close to Chyna tells us the reality star snapped because Alexis called her a "hood rat." Alexis denies that.

Donald Trump Jr. My Wife & I Are Egg-cellent ... Amid Divorce

Published | Updated

Donald Trump Jr. and his estranged wife, Vanessa, are getting a divorce, but you wouldn't be able to tell from the photo above, taken Monday at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll.

The couple put on a united front on the White House lawn, where their 5 kids and about 30,000 others participated in the annual tradition of rolling Easter eggs across the South Lawn.

It was their first public outing since Vanessa filed for divorce last month and news of DJT Jr.'s alleged affair with Danity Kane singer Aubrey O'Day surfaced, but not their first hang. They spent Spring Break with their kids at Mar-a-Lago last week.

It's pretty amazing Vanessa went to the event. As we reported, she hates politics and the spotlight that comes with it.

Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton In The Name Of The Father ...

Published | Updated

Blake Shelton sprang into dad duty after Easter Sunday mass in L.A. with Gwen Stefani and her 3 kids, and it makes you think their next trip to church might not be for a holiday.

The group was dressed in their Sunday best-ish as Blake carried out Gwen's youngest son, Apollo. The country crooner even looked liked he coordinated his outfit to match the boys' blues.

Gwen and Blake have been dating since November 2015, right after Gwen split with rocker and the boys' dad, Gavin Rossdale.

Holidays with Gwen's kids is no new thing. They all spent Christmas together too. Cute fam.

Toni Braxton Pulls Sister From Family Tour

Published | Updated

Toni Braxton is caught in the middle of a new Braxton family feud, and it's forced her to kick one of her sisters off her upcoming tour.

Toni's hitting the road with "Sex & Cigarettes," her first solo album in 8 years, and sisters Tamar and Traci were set to be opening acts until Traci was pulled from the bill this week. Toni's offered no official reason for the change, but sources connected to the fam believe Tamar's behind the axing.

As we previously reported, Tamar's beefing with her sisters and mother over the way they've been treating her estranged husband, Vincent Herbert, on their reality show. She thinks the show's been edited to vilify him.

We're told Traci's been working on a new album and intended to perform some of those songs on the tour ... so, she doesn't think Toni would 86 her on her own. Still, Tamar's team is denying she had anything to do with it.

For now ... Tamar's in, Traci's out and Toni's radio silent. Easter dinner should be interesting.

Kim & Kanye Animal Instincts Are Best on Spring Break!!!

Published | Updated

Someone told Kanye West and his fam it's all happening at the zoo for Spring Break '18 -- and it looks like that someone was right.

'Ye and Kim Kardashian took Saint and North for a VIP experience Thursday at the San Diego Zoo. Based on his grin, we'd say Dad had just as much fun as the kids getting a behind-the-scenes tour with the penguins, elephants and hippos.

Low key ... this is the Wests' cutest family outing we've seen in a long time. Ya gotta see which animal put the biggest smile on North's face.

As we told you, Kanye's been busting his ass working on his next album, so nice to see him get a Dad-mode break.

He's still got some time to brush up on diaper duty training since the baby's not due til summer. He also might want to read up on secondhand smoke.

LAKE SHOW NOT BALL SHOW

Gary Payton is stompin' out all the LiAngelo Ball-to-L.A. buzz -- saying what the Lakers need is a damn superstar, not Lonzo's little bro!!

GP's son, Gary II, is on a 2-way deal with the Lake Show this season ... so he's been keeping a close eye on the squad and, of course, the Ball fam.

Gary only had nice things to say about 'Zo and LaVar ... but when it came to L.A. grabbing 'Gelo in the NBA draft, the Hall of Famer wasn't having it.

"I don't believe in that," Payton told TMZ Sports. "I don't think teams are ignorant like that ... what the Lakers need is a big-time star, a leader."

Of course, we had to ask if he thought that leader was one LeBron Raymone James -- and GP dished.

Stormy Daniels We're a Happy Family of 4 ... If Ya Include My Muscle!!!

Published | Updated

Stormy Daniels and her immediate family aren't letting her showdown with President Trump slow down their daily activities, but she is rolling with oversized protection now.

Stormy was out in her hometown of Dallas on Wednesday with her husband Glendon Crain -- the guy with shades, no sleeves -- and their daughter.

If the ex-porn star seems kinda carefree, probably has a lot to do with the bodyguard -- big, tall, with earbuds -- shadowing her.

Stormy's little girl is the child she referenced on "60 Minutes" when describing the 2011 threat she says she got from a strange guy in Las Vegas. She claims the man said, "That's a beautiful little girl. It'd be a shame if something happened to her mom."

I CAN STILL SEE HIS FACE

Her lawyer, Michael Avenatti believes the threat can only be traced back to 2 people -- Trump or his attorney, Michael Cohen.

Stormy's not sweating it now. Her strip club tour resumes Thursday night in Nashville.

Hulk Hogan I'm Not Coming Back at WrestleMania ... 'Maybe Someday'

Published | Updated

Hulk Hogan and the WWE might be in talks, but Hulk tells TMZ Sports Hulkamania will NOT be running wild at WrestleMania 34, brother!!!

We got the Hulkster touching down at LAX ... and he immediately shut down the rumors of his 24-inch pythons popping up at the grandest stage of them all next weekend.

"No sir ... no WrestleMania," Hogan said.

As for whether he's ever coming back, all Hulk could tell us was, "Maybe someday, brotha."

Now, we feel like we should mention that Ronda Rousey gave us a solid "no" when we asked if she'd be at the Royal Rumble ... and we all know how that turned out.

Plus, we shot Nick and Brooke Hogan at LAX the other day, and they both made it clear they're 100% behind their dad crashing the party in New Orleans!!
