Fashion

Believe it or not, there is something in even more dire straits than Lindsay Lohan's legal woes ... her career transcontinental travel outfit.

Rockin' the Scarecrow's hat, a gorilla-sleeved leather jacket and a matching pair of ill-fitting leather MC Hammer harem pants, Lindsay made her desperate way from JFK to LAX on Tuesday night.

On a positive note, what we can see of her ginger weave and bronzed face looks pretty good.

While it is unclear how the judge will rule in her court case today, the verdict Lindsay should most fear is from the fashion police.

For once, Paris Hilton let her younger model boyfriend River Viiperi take center stage ... when he walked in a fashion show in Barcelona on Monday.

The 31-year-old socialite enjoyed the view as her 21-year-old Spanish catwalker strutted his stuff on the runway for the clothing brand Mango.

From the looks of it, their relationship has legs.

Timbaland is still crying over that $1.8 MILLION watch that went missing two years ago (wouldn't you be?) -- and now he's filed a lawsuit against his insurance company ... claiming it REFUSES to cough up the cash to cover his claim.

According to a lawsuit filed against American Home Assurance Company last month, the music mogul claims he paid over $50,000 to take out a policy with AHA back in May 2010. Timbaland says the policy covered a slew of expensive items, including his Jacob & Co. 18K white gold watch, loaded with over 30 CARATS of diamonds!!!

In the suit, Timbaland claims he lost the watch in August 2010 and filed a claim with AHA -- and even testified under oath that it was missing -- but the company DENIED his request and hasn't paid a dime.

But there's a twist ... this is the SAME watch Timbaland reported stolen two years ago -- which is when his family called the cops ... claiming he was so distraught by the loss they feared he might commit suicide. Timbaland was adamant he never planned to kill himself.

At the time, he told the L.A. County Sheriff's department he felt "someone he knows" stole the bling and they opened an investigation.

In the suit, the rapper says he believes (and testified under oath) it was his two-and-a-half-year-old daughter who "picked [the watch] up and played with it until she became bored and discarded it somewhere."

He adds, "It has never been found."

Timbaland is suing for $1.8 million -- the value of the watch -- plus interest and attorneys' fees.

Just in case anyone forgot, Jennifer Lopez proved she's still bootyful last night.

The 43-year-old curvaceous diva showed off her God given talents at the premiere of her new film "Parker" in Vegas.

Crocs founder George Boedecker is changing his tune after his crazy DUI arrest last year -- finally admitting he was wasted at the time ... after previously pleading "not guilty."

Boedecker was in court yesterday in Boulder, CO, where he pled guilty to DUI following his DUI arrest last August -- when cops discovered him passed out in the front seat of his Porsche.

According to the police report, medics described Boedecker as "drunk as crap" ... and when cops decided to arrest him, Boedecker told the officers to "f**k yourselves in the ass."

According to the report, Boedecker also claimed he was dating Taylor Swift.

Boedecker pled "not guilty" back in September -- but yesterday he changed his plea ... and was sentenced to 2 years probation and 96 hours of community service.

While performing at the Inaugural Ball, Usher almost exposed one of his.

The R&B singer had his very own Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction and tore his pants in the crotch while on stage at the ball on Monday night.

Snoop Lion quietly roared back at the Rastafarians who put him on blast -- by showing up to LAX with a Bob Marley shirt and a badass Rasta cap.

As TMZ previously reported, Bunny Wailer -- an original member of Bob Marley and the Wailers -- is threatening to sue Snoop ... claiming he's big phony who's posing as a Rastafarian to make a movie and sell records. A group called the Rastafari Millennium Council also blasted Snoop in a 7-page letter to the media.

While Snoop has not made any official comment on the matter, he's definitely making a fashion statement.

She may be a cougar, but it was all about the leopard print getup and ridiculously hot leather thigh high stiletto boots when Jennifer Lopez hit the streets in NYC on Tuesday.

Russell Simmons is firing back at his ex-business partner's legal threats ... telling TMZ he did NOT siphon off millions of dollars from his sneaker company -- and any accusations otherwise are the workings of a "disgruntled" employee.

TMZ broke the story ... former Run Athletics President Rasheed Young threatened to sue Russell and Reverend Run ... claiming the hip-hop moguls screwed him out of millions, by secretly funneling revenue from their company into a separate account.

Russell was out in L.A. Monday and tells TMZ ... any accusations of hiding profits are 100% "not true".

He continues, "[Rasheed] worked for me ... I fought to keep his job ... and I'm sorry he's disgruntled, but that's what happens. Anyone can say anything if a celebrity's name's attached to it ... there's nothing I can do about it ... it's false."

First Lady Michelle Obama rocked a bright red Jason Wu gown to the 2013 Inaugural Ball last night -- a stark contrast to the white Jason Wu number she wore to the ball back in 2009.

Is FLOTUS better off 4 years later?

Michelle Obama's flat-top rocking nephew needs to get with the times -- so says one of the greatest flat-top rockers ever ... Kid from Kid 'n Play ... who tells us, the hairstyle is embarrassingly out of fashion and needs to die.

In case you weren't watching ... news cameras captured "First Nephew" Avery Robinson sporting a hi-top fade while watching his uncle Barack get sworn in for the second time.

But Kid -- real name Chris Reid -- tells us, it's a throwback 'do that never should've happened ... "I think that flat-tops should not come back ... It's an old style that now looks stupid to me."

Kid added, he doesn't want to "blatantly bash anyone" ... but said Avery needs "to get out of the time warp."

It was a battle of the coats, as First Lady Michelle Obama and Second Lady Jill Biden made their fashionable entrances to President Barack Obama's inauguration on Monday.

Question is ...

Russell Simmons' and Reverend Run's business partner has declared war on the hip hop moguls -- claiming they've hijacked MILLIONS in profits from their kids shoe company ... and now, he's gearing up to sue.

Lawyers for Rasheed Young -- President of Run Athletics -- sent Russell and Rev. Run a letter back in November, accusing the brothers of secretly funneling millions in revenue from their Pastry brand of footwear ... into a company that Rasheed isn't a part of.

Rasheed claims Pastry has raked in tens of millions in sales -- and so far, he hasn't seen a penny of it.

Sources close to Rasheed tell TMZ, Russell and Rev. Run have been stonewalling him ever since he sent the letter -- refusing to respond to Rasheed's demands -- so now he's cranking up the legal heat.

Rasheed's demanding the Simmons brothers fix the screwed-up business structure ASAP ... and pay him his share of the shoe profits. If they don't, Rasheed says he'll sue.

Talk about dedication -- one of the dudes in Kris Kross is still wearing his pants backwards ... which means he's had to pee with his pants down for the last 20 years. This deserves its own TMZ rap song.

Get ready to break out your backwards oversized gear again, because '90s pint-sized rap duo Kris Kross are all growed up and ready to jump jump back into the spotlight.

It's been 21 years since Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly and Chris "Daddy Mac" Smith became famous for those ridiculous outfits -- and their monster hit "Jump" -- and they've just announced they are reuniting for a 20th anniversary all-star concert honoring So So Def Recordings in Atlanta next month.

While a lot may have changed since the guys last had a hit, one thing has stayed the same ... Mac Daddy is still rockin' the backwards jeans.

'Cause inside out is wiggity wiggity wiggity wack.
