Bezos & Sanchez Nature-Filled Xmas Eve Stroll ... Back in Town After Vacay

Published | Updated

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez touched down in Miami just in time for Christmas -- but their "Winter Wonderland" looks like a regular summer day ... just peep their walking attire.

The couple went for a stroll with their family members Sunday at a park near their Indian Creek Island property -- which is now Bezos' home base after leaving Seattle behind earlier this year. Looks like they're enjoying it out there ... 'cause they had some pep to their step.

OUT FOR A STROLL

Plus, they were dressed like it was June rather than December ... which we suppose comes with the territory in Florida -- it's pretty warm all year round, so they can get away with this.

Lauren was rocking a top that exposed her toned arms and shoulders ... whereas JB was showing off his legs in shorts. Of course, they were sporting shades too ... the whole fam was in fact. Talk about a power family -- that's the kind of vibe they give off as a unit.

Remember, Jeff and Lauren were just in the Caribbean last week enjoying a little holiday getaway together ... but it seems they wanted to be back stateside for Xmas Eve/Xmas.

It caps off a wild past few weeks for them, where they've been sailing the open seas and ringing in birthdays with friends in style ... with flash and cash to spare. Seeing them in a more low-key environment here seems to be them finally coming down off a year-long high.

They certainly look grounded and in lockstep unison ... telegraphing their marriage to come. It must be nice to be these two going into the new year -- they got a whole world to conquer.

Happy (hiking) trails, y'all.

'One Life to Live' Soap Star Kamar de los Reyes Dead at 56 ... After Private Cancer Battle

Published | Updated

Kamar de los Reyes -- a longtime soap opera star -- has died, according to his family.

A spokesperson broke the news to THR Sunday, saying the actor passed away Saturday night in L.A. after a brief battle with cancer. Unclear what sort of cancer he might've been battling, or when he was diagnosed -- but it sounds like it was kept fairly private.

While de los Reyes will perhaps best remembered for his role as Antonio Vega on "One Life to Live" -- on which he was featured in 287 episodes -- video game fans probably recognize him too ... as he voiced villain Raul Menendez in the "Call of Duty" series.

He voiced Menendez -- a main and recurring character -- for a total of 4 'COD' installments ... including the famed 'Black Ops II,' where he debuted as the big bad for years to come.

de los Reyes had an impressive résumé outside of that as well. In addition to his work on 'OLTL' and 'COD' -- he had also memorably starred in shows like "Sleepy Hollow," "All American," "The Rookie," "Reed Between the Lines, "Promised Land," "Four Corners," "Valley of the Dolls," "ER" ... as well as guest starring on "Law & Order," "CSI," "The Mentalist" and more.

He had also been in a handful of films ... like "Nixon," "In Search of a Dream," "The Cell," "Cayo," "Salt," "LA Apocalypse," "Amelia 2.0," "Hot Guys with Guns" as well as others.

de los Reyes is survived by his wife, Sherri Saum, their children and other family. He was 56.

RIP

Taylor Swift con su madre en el partido de Navidad de Travis Kelce

Published | Updated

actualización

12:04 PM PT -- Taylor fue vista animando a Travis y compañía desde su palco de lujo y parece que Santa estuvo a su lado todo el tiempo. Además está su hermano, Austin, así que podemos decir que es un asunto de familia.

No hay señales de la madre de Travis, Donna, pero dicen que su padre está presente. También parece que los fans sacaron sus mejores carteles.

Taylor Swift está de vuelta para ver a Travis Kelce, solo que esta vez un par de cosas son diferentes, es Navidad y su mamá está allí por primera vez.

Gran día para Kansas City, porque Taylor podría ser visto en el Arrowhead Stadium antes de que el juego comience como ella normalmente lo hace, pero el lunes por la mañana, Andrea Swift estaba justo a su lado a caballo en el asiento del pasajero delantero de un carrito de golf privado conducirlos alrededor.

Taylor estaba en él también, pero en la parte de atrás y ambos saludaron a la gente como si estuvieran en un desfile, ya que pasaron espectadores alegres. Ah, ¡y Papá Noel también estuvo ahí!

Como hemos dicho, Andrea nunca ha estado en uno de los partidos de Travis con Taylor (por lo que sabemos claro) y honestamente no hemos visto mucho de ella durante el romance de T-Swift con el tight end de los Chiefs. Hemos visto a su padre, Scott, un puñado de veces, pero no a Mamá Osa hasta ahora.

Por si no lo sabías, los padres de Taylor están divorciados, así que es por eso que Andrea no suele estar al lado de Scott en este tipo de salidas.

Hoy, sin embargo, parece que van a ser una familia unida delante de las cámaras, porque dicen que Scotty también está por ahí... estamos seguros de verlos muy pronto aquí en la suite.

Este será el octavo partido de Travis al que Taylor ha asistido, ella lo ha convertido en algo regular esta temporada y sus apariciones son siempre memorables. Sobre todo cuando está realmente concentrada en el juego.

Recordemos que ella está en medio de un descanso en este momento y no tiene que subir al escenario de nuevo hasta febrero, cuando volará a Tokio para más espectáculos "Eras". Mientras tanto, ha estado pasando mucho tiempo con Travis, incluidas las vacaciones, menos Acción de Gracias.

¡Se perfila a ser todo un año para ella!

Adoptan a un mapache y se convierte en viral

feliz navidad pequeño Rick

Una pareja de Washington parece haber adoptado extraoficialmente a un mapache cojo, lo que ha horrorizado a su hija... pero ha cautivado los corazones de miles de personas en Internet.

La presentadora de deportes de la radio de Seattle, Stacy Jo Rost, ha documentado durante todo el fin de semana a esta bola de pelo a la que llama "Pequeño Rick", en honor a su padrastro. Dice que, después de tener que sacrificar al perro de la familia hace dos años, Rick padre y su madre han recurrido al mapache para sobrellevar la situación.

Básicamente, sus padres han recurrido a alimentar a Ricky. El mapache de un año va a su propiedad con regularidad para comer y al parecer tiene un horario establecido.

Stacy publicó un montón de videos capturando los hábitos alimenticios del pequeño Rick, incluyendo algunos intentos apresurados de pedir más bocados y arañando la ventana en lo que parece un intento de entrar. ¡Incluso intentó morder el dedo de Stacy a través del cristal de la ventana!

Stacy dice que sus padres encontraron a Rick cuando era pequeño y se dieron cuenta de que su pata trasera estaba herida. Por lo tanto, parece que empezaron a atenderlo (tomando cierta distancia) y ahora, el pequeño viene a su casa como un lugar de consuelo y comida.

Como dijimos, se puede decir que Stacy no es una gran fan de esto, señalando que es, de hecho, un animal salvaje y no una mascota, a pesar de que su mamá y papá parecen estar tratándolo como uno.

Curiosamente, si te metes en la tendencia del pequeño Rick en Tuiter... verás una buena cantidad de gente apoyando a los padres adoptivos humanos y argumentando que Stacy está siendo dura.

Pero ella se mantiene firme y le advierte a todo el mundo que no se fíe del pequeño Rick, por muy tierno que sea.

Taylor Swift Mom Andrea Joins at TK's Xmas Game ... Merry Swiftmas!!!

Published | Updated

update

12:04 PM PT -- Taylor was seen cheering on Travis and co. from her luxury box, and it looks like Santa was by her side the entire time. Word is, that's her broski, Austin ... so it's a whole family affair.

No sign of Travis' mom, Donna, here ... but they're saying his dad Ed is in attendance. It also looks like the fans brought out their best Swiftmas posters for the game as well, per usual.

Taylor Swift is back in the building to watch Travis Kelce -- only this time, a couple things are different ... it's Christmas, and her mama is there too for the very first time.

Big day in Kansas City ... 'cause Taylor could be seen cruising through Arrowhead Stadium ahead of kickoff like she normally does -- but on Monday morning, Andrea Swift was right next to her -- riding in the front passenger seat of a private golf cart driving them around.

Taylor was in it too, but she was in the back ... and both of them waved at people like they were in a parade as they passed cheerful onlookers. Oh, and Santa was there too!

Like we said, Andrea's never been to one of Travis' games with Taylor (that we're aware of anyway) and we honestly haven't seen much of her during T-Swift's romance with the Chiefs tight end. We have seen her dad, Scott, a handful of times ... but no Mama Bear 'til now.

Unclear why that might be the case, but in case it wasn't clear already -- Taylor's parents are divorced ... so that's why Andrea isn't usually right by Scott's side at these sorta outings.

Today, however, it looks like they'll be a united family in front of cameras -- 'cause Scott is said to be there as well ... and we're sure to see them soon enough here in the suite.

This will be the 8th game of Travis' that Taylor's attended ... she's made it a regular thing this season, and her appearances are always memorable -- especially as she gets more into it.

Remember, she's on a break from work at the moment ... and doesn't have to hit the stage again until February when she'll fly to Tokyo for more 'Eras' shows. In the meantime, she's been spending a lot of time with Travis ... including the holidays, minus Thanksgiving.

It's shaped up to be quite a year for her, to say the least. Here's to a couple more games to finish 2023!

'Little Rick' Crippled Raccoon Adopted by Humans ... Goes Viral for Antics!!!

Published | Updated
122523_racoon_kal
MERRY CHRISTMAS, LITTLE RICK

An older couple in Washington appears to have unofficially taken a hobbled raccoon into their care -- which has horrified their daughter ... but captured the hearts of thousands online.

Seattle sports radio host Stacy Jo Rost has documented this fur ball all weekend, who she calls "Little Rick" ... named after her stepdad. She says after having to put their family dog down 2 years ago, Rick Sr. and her mom have turned to the raccoon as a way to cope.

Basically, her folks have resorted to feeding Ricky here ... and the 1-year-old raccoon comes over to their property regularly for his meals, which are scheduled and on the dot, it seems.

Stacy posted a ton of videos capturing Little Rick's eating habits, including some hasty attempts at asking for more morsels ... by scratching at the window in what looks like an attempt to come inside. He even tried biting at Stacy's finger through the window pane!

Stacy says her parents found Rick when he was tiny, and they noticed his back leg was injured. So, it sounds like they started to attend to him -- from a bit of a distance, though -- and now ... LR comes by their place as a place of comfort and food, limping at that.

Like we said, you can tell SJR is not a huge fan of this ... pointing out it is, in fact, a wild animal and not a pet -- even though her mom and dad seem to be treating it like one.

Funny enough, if you hop into the Little Rick trend on Twitter ... you'll see a fair amount of people actually supporting the adoptive human parents, and arguing Stacy's being harsh.

But she's sticking to her guns -- warning everyone not to trust Little Rick, cute as he may be.

Kroy Biermann Excludes Kim in Xmas Post ... It's Just Me & the Kiddos!!!

Published

Kroy Biermann is highlighting his holiday by snubbing his estranged wife, Kim Zolciak ... and her exclusion is jarring.

The retired NFL'er threw up a snap of him and his 4 kids with KZ -- Kroy Jr., Kash, Kaia and Kane -- with Papa Bear standing proudly behind them and grinning from ear to ear. His caption was also pretty telling on how he's feeling about his marriage/divorce right now.

He wrote, "Merry Christmas from the Biermann’s!!🎄 (-2 😢) I didn’t get a picture of the family enjoying @arianabiermann ‘s church service and I had this taken after @briellebiermann and Billy had departed in the direction of their car as we were almost outside from our service."

KB added, "I couldn’t be a more proud father of you 2 and the littles! ❤️ Got to do better at remembering to capture more pictures." Interesting ... he noted Brielle and Ariana here -- who are actually Kim's biological daughters -- but not their mother.

BTW, no posts from Kim herself ... she hasn't thrown anything up since mid-December.

This marks just the latest up-and-down moment for them ... for now, it seems like Kim and Kroy are on the outs -- this after sending signals of reconciliation just a month ago. Of course, they also had a huge blowout fight that required the cops to called over.

It's proven to be a difficult year, for sure ... and it seems Kroy wants to turn the page.

Beyoncé Childhood Home Goes Up in Flames on XMAS Day

Published | Updated

Beyoncé's childhood home went up in flames on Christmas Day.

122523_beyonce_house_fire_kal
RAGING INFRENO

Officials say at around 2 AM, they responded to reports of a fire at the home, located in the city's Third Ward.

The two-story house was in flames, but first responders put out the fire in roughly 10 minutes.

Thankfully the family -- a couple with two young kids -- were able to evacuate the house. No one was injured.

As we previously reported ... Beyoncé's family bought the house way back in 1981 for $64k, but they moved out just a few years later, before Solange was born in 1986.

The house went up for sale in 2019. It has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, with a spiral staircase leading to a third-floor office space.

A buyer bought the 8,640-square-foot-lot lot next to the home in 2022 for $310,000.

Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton Skiing & Tubing with the Kiddos!!! ... Holiday Trip to Utah

Published | Updated

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are making up for some future lost time ahead of New Year's Eve -- when they'll be apart -- and did so by hitting the slopes with their kids.

The couple hit up Woodward Park City ski resort out in Utah Friday and Saturday with Gwen's 3 boys -- and the whole family was out and about, tubing one day ... and skiing the next. In photos obtained by TMZ, you can see GS and BS in lock step with the teens close behind.

122423_gwen_stefani_kal
TIME FOR SOME TUBING

Eyewitnesses tell us the family wasn't shying away from the attention they drew, nor were they opposed to taking pictures with fans ... by all accounts they were pretty cheerful.

Interestingly, it sounds like Gwen was the one going down the hills here -- on Friday, she could be seen tubing with her boys, while Blake looked on and filmed. On Saturday, she and the kiddos went skiing ... and we're told Blake did not attend. Seems she's the active one!

Anyway, like we said ... these love birds won't be by each other's side come midnight next week -- 'cause Blake's booked to perform in Nashville, and she got hired for a Vegas gig.

Even when they're not on 'The Voice,' they always seem to be working hard/playing hard.

Britney Spears Chances of Xmas w/ Dad Dwindling ... Holiday Plans Still Hazy

Published | Updated

Britney Spears has yet to get on the horn and ring up her old man to make plans for Christmas -- and at this point ... it almost feels like a family reunion ain't happening.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Jamie Spears hasn't heard from Britney whatsoever in recent days, this despite the fact that it seemed like a coming-together was possibly imminent in time for the holidays.

Alas, we're told it's been radio silence from Britney's end ... although our sources say Jamie is planning on spending Christmas with his other daughter, Jamie Lynn Spears in Louisiana.

As far as where Britney might be, or what she'll end up doing ... it's not totally clear. We know her mother, Lynne, was hopeful her daughter might fly out and spend this weekend with her -- but again, there's no indication that's happening.

It's a bit of a downer to hear -- remember, after we broke the story that Jamie had his leg amputated ... Britney posted a photo of the two of them, seemingly signaling she'd come around and make amends.

It was just a few weeks ago that Britney and Lynne were together here in SoCal -- for Brit's 42nd birthday, no less -- but that sweet reconciliation appears to have been short-lived.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Like we said, no idea on where Britney might be at the moment -- but she did just signal on social media she's still here in California ... 'cause she posted a video of herself posing in a white outfit, with a long caption recounting a story about something she saw at the gym.

On its face, it seems like she's rolling solo for Xmas ... which, if true, is a bit of a shame.

We know for a fact people in her family would love to see her, but for now ... the clock is ticking on being able to make that a reality. Granted there are still a couple days left.

If there was ever a time for a Christmas miracle, now would be it. Fingers crossed. 🤞

Derek Carr Hey, Saints WRs ... You Get A Rolex, You Get A Chain!!!

Published | Updated

Move over Santa Claus, it's all about Santa Carr -- 'cause New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr showed his receivers some major love for the holidays ... by gifting them Rolex watches and diamond chains!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... the four-time Pro Bowler wanted to do something super special for his wideouts this season as a sign of appreciation, so he hit up Al the Jeweler of Labelle Jewelry in Totowa, NJ to make some custom pieces.

We're told Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed received the iced-out time pieces ... and others in the crew received chains.

Carr didn't forget about his guy Michael Thomas ... we're told he'll have a present, too -- as soon as the two get in touch.

Carr is a loyal customer of Al's -- as we previously reported, the quarterback also went to him to make custom number pendants for Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams before he left the Raiders earlier this year.

The whole Carr clan also has new jewelry -- each family member has a custom iced-out part of a puzzle that comes together to be one whole piece!! How cool is that??

DC Young Fly está manteniendo la fe en esta temporada festiva, a pesar de que tuvo un año difícil, marcado por la pérdida de su pareja desde hace mucho tiempo Jacky Oh y su hermana.

No me puedes quebrar

Él dice que siempre y cuando seas fiel y obediente al corazón de Dios, todo va a estar bien, incluso en momentos de dolor y agonía.

DC ciertamente pasó por mucho de eso este año. TMZ reveló que su compañera Jacky había muerto como resultado de complicaciones de un procedimiento estético (Brazilian butt lift) en mayo.

La tragedia golpeó de nuevo en octubre cuando anunció que su hermana había fallecido. En su IG escribió que volvería a poner su confianza en un poder superior: "DIOS es amor y el amor siempre superará la adversidad".

A pesar de sus reveses personales, él es inflexible en seguir adelante. Nos dijo que quiere devolver a la comunidad este año para "difundir amor y mostrarle a la gente que hay esperanza".

Afortunadamente, también ha habido algunos momentos de celebración para DC este año. Tuvo la oportunidad de filmar junto a Eddie Murphy para la nueva película de Navidad de Netflix, "Candy Cane Lane".

Nos dijo que la actuación fue una "bendición" y la experiencia le mostró que Dios "tiene sus manos sobre él", eso es, si se mantiene obediente, por supuesto.

DC YOUNG FLY TALKS XMAS PLANS W/ KIDS After Tough Year Losing Wife & Sister

Published

DC Young Fly is keeping the faith this festive season ... despite a difficult year marked by the loss of his longtime partner, Jacky Oh!, and his sister.

Talking to TMZ at LAX, he says his focus is making Xmas special for his 3 kids he shares with Jacky ... prioritizing a lot of prayin' during their family time together.

He says that as long as you stay God-fearin' and obedient, everything's gonna be A-OK -- even through the pain and agony.

DC certainly went through it this year ... with TMZ revealing his partner Jacky had died as a result of complications from a BBL in May.

Tragedy struck once again in October when he announced his sister had passed away ... going on to place his trust in the higher power again, writing on IG: "GOD is love and love will always overcome adversity."

Despite his personal setbacks, he's adamant on paying things forward ... telling us he's giving back to the community this year to "spread love and show people there's hope."

Thankfully, there have also been some celebratory moments for DC this year ... taking on the opportunity to star alongside Eddie Murphy for the new Netflix Xmas movie, "Candy Cane Lane."

Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen's family dog died, and they're both post remembrances of the pooch -- who their kids seemed to absolutely adore.

The exes posted respective tributes to their pit bull mix, Lua, on Saturday ... announcing their longtime pet had passed on. Tom threw up a photo of his two children with Gisele -- Benjamin and Vivian -- hovering over their doggy, which had its eyes closed.

He wrote, "We love you Lua RIP." He posted another photo of Lulu, and added ... "Forever in our hearts." In yet another IG Story slide, he uploaded a boomerang of his daughter playing with Lulu.

Gisele, likewise, threw up a bunch of shots of the canine in a sprawling IG post ... and she had a sweet shout-out to Lulu that touched on just how much she meant to the family.

She wrote, "Our little Lulu, our guardian angel is gone to heaven. She will forever live in our hearts. We already miss her sooooo much! #unconditionallove RIPLua." Her caption was also translated to Portuguese ... and she included a ton of awesome photos of their doggo.

Unclear when exactly they got Lua, but we know they adopted the pit bull at some point in their marriage ... and that their kids grew up with it too. They have another dog too, Fluffy.

All dogs go to heaven.

RIP

Kyle Richards y Mauricio Umansky Reunidos... y se siente tan incómodo En Aspen con la familia

Published | Updated

Kyle Richards se ha unido al resto de su familia en Aspen justo a tiempo para pasar las fiestas, pero ella y Mauricio Umansky están manteniendo la distancia, a pesar de estar técnicamente juntos.

La pareja, que actualmente está separada, se reunió el sábado en la lujosa ciudad de esquí de Colorado, en donde Mauricio ha andado por su cuenta en los últimos dos días, yendo de fiesta y pasándolo bomba.

Por supuesto, Kyle ha estado en México últimamente, pero puede que haya aterrizado anoche. Ahora, ella, Mauricio Umansky y sus hijos están de paseo como una familia, con lo que parece ser un instructor privado y un guía que los lleva arriba y abajo de las montañas.

Como hemos dicho, Kyle y Mauricio parecían estar alejados el uno del otro mientras paseaban. Aunque ambos se sonrieron respectivamente, en un momento, se encontraron cara a cara y parecía cualquier cosa menos agradable.

Recuerden, la pareja había estado actuando como una familia a principios de este año, sobre todo el verano. Kyle incluso apareció para apoyar a Mauricio durante su participación en 'DWTS', pero a medida que fueron pasando los meses, se hizo evidente que su relación era tensa.

Aunque han evitado el término "divorcio", a veces incluso sugiriendo que están trabajando en su matrimonio, estos últimos días han sido reveladores, especialmente para Mauricio.

122223-mauricio-umansky-tmz-kal-v2 December 2023
Desatado en Aspen

El tipo ha parecido un soltero, con ningún otro objetivo que disfrutar.

Kyle, mientras tanto, ha estado preocupada con su documentalista Morgan Wade y otras empresas, incluyendo lo que está pasando en Bravo. Es de suponer que todo este drama se emitió en la nueva temporada de 'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills', incluyendo, tal vez, una respuesta en cuanto a lo que está por venir.

Por el momento, parece que van por caminos diferentes y que solo los niños los logran mantener reunidos, si es qué.

Kyle Richards & Mauricio Umansky Reunited, And It Feels So Awkward ... Aspen Skiing w/ Family

Published | Updated

Kyle Richards has joined the rest of her fam in Aspen just in time for the holidays -- but she and Mauricio Umansky are keeping their distance ... despite technically rolling together.

The estranged couple -- who are currently separated -- came together Saturday in the ritzy Colorado ski town ... where Mauricio's been by himself over the past couple days, partying his face off and having a blast.

Of course, Kyle herself has been in Mexico of late ... but it looks like she might've just touched down last night. Now, she and MU and their kids are mobbing around as a unit -- with what looks like a private instructor/guide leading them up and down the mountains.

Like we said, Kyle and Mauricio appeared to be staying away from each other as they made their way around the resort -- and while each of them flashed smiles, respectively ... at one point they did, in fact, cross paths to face each other and that looked anything but pleasant.

Remember, they were doing the whole together-as-a-family thing earlier this year -- especially the summer -- and Kyle even showed up to support Mauricio during his time on 'DWTS' ... but as the months have gone on, it's now evident their relationship is strained.

While they've steered clear of the term "divorce" -- and, at times, even suggesting they're working on their marriage -- these last few days have been telling ... especially for Mauricio.

COMING TOGETHER IN COLORADO

Kyle, meanwhile, has been preoccupied with her Morgan Wade doc ... and other ventures -- including what she's got going on at Bravo. All this drama will presumably be aired out on the new season of 'RHOBH' -- including, perhaps, an answer as to what's to come.

At the moment, it looks like they're headed down different paths ... with just the kids keeping them within arm's reach, if that.
