Melania Trump Rocking Tone-Deaf Coat ... 'I Really Don't Care, Do U?'
Melania Trump's getting destroyed on social media for wearing what most would consider a tone-deaf jacket ... considering she wore it on her way to visit child detention centers in Texas.
As she boarded the plane Thursday in D.C., Melania was rocking a green trenchcoat with bold lettering on the back that read, "I REALLY DON'T CARE, DO U?" It's a ZARA jacket that retails for about $40.
The First Lady made a surprise visit to McAllen, Texas ... where hundreds, if not thousands, of immigrant children are being held after they were separated from their parents crossing the border. Melania said she was there to help reunite children with their families.
No one's gonna argue with her decision to make the trip, but her wardrobe selection's a whole other story.
FLOTUS' spokeswoman, Stephanie Grisham, has said, "It's a jacket. There was no hidden message. After today's important visit to Texas, I hope the media isn't going to choose to focus on her wardrobe."
It's true ... there's nothing hidden about the message.

NBA Draft Fashion the Good, the Bad and the Swaggy
It's the moment of truth for the newest class of NBA prospects -- who's gonna have the most dope outfit when their name is called at the Draft?!
Before these guys face off on the hardwood next season, their first big head-to-head matchup is going down in the fashion department. Some of the highlights include ...
Ex-Kentucky Wildcat Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is leading the charge ... rockin' a champagne-colored floral suit made by Jhoanna Alba.
Zhaire Smith stayed true to his favorite color, with an all blue suit and Del Toro cork loafers (and a Puma lapel pin, of course) ... made by Elevee designer Boushra Alchabaoun.
Projected mid-first rounder Lonnie Walker went with a bold all-white suit and pink tie combo ... also designed by Alchabaoun.
These dudes are about to become instant millionaires ... and they sure look like it.

Russell Wilson and Ciara What's Hattenin'?
Russell Wilson and Ciara are in the UK for the Royal Ascot horse races ... and, man, do they look dishy!!
In case you don't know your onions ... Royal Ascot is a historic horse racing event in England that's been going on since the 1700s ... with everybody from the Royal Family to huge celebs in attendance.
Seriously, the Queen and Princess Beatrice are both there -- so you know it's a big deal.
Of course, there's a strict dress code that requires everyone to style out their noggins with massive head wear ... which explains why the Seahawks superstar looks like the Monopoly guy.
There's big money involved on the track -- with roughly $10 MILLION in prize money. No word if the Queen ever places any bets -- but it'd be weird considering she'd be using money with her face on it.
But, the biggest shocker of the day ... one of the dudes in the royal procession FELL OFF HIS HORSE -- but, don't worry, everyone makes mistakes ... right, Russell? (#HandItToMarshawn).

EXCLUSIVE
- 1 shares
Cops investigating Kate Spade's suicide found a variety of anxiety meds at her death scene, but no illegal drugs ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us NYPD officers combing through Kate's Park Avenue home came across the anxiety meds, which were prescribed to the designer. We don't know yet if Kate had taken any of the medications before she took her life.
Our sources say detectives did not come across any illegal narcotics in the home.
TMZ broke the story ... Spade had fallen into a state of depression in the months leading up to her death after her husband, Andy Spade, had asked for a divorce. The couple was living separately but, according to Andy, still had dinners and took vacations together with their 13-year-old daughter.
Kate's funeral is being held Thursday in Kansas City, Missouri ... where she was born and raised.

Kim Kardashian West Returns to Paris First Time Since Robbery
Kim Kardashian West is back in Paris for the first time since her traumatizing 2016 robbery there ... and it's obvious it's still fresh in her mind.
Kim and Kanye were surrounded by their muscle -- and some fans and paps, of course -- on their way to the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer show. It's Paris Fashion Week, so it's clear why Kim's there ... but still hanging over her is the petrifying heist.
TMZ broke the story ... Kim feared rape when masked men stormed into her 2-story apartment in October 2016 and zip tied her hands with plastic handcuffs. The masked men also made off with more than $10 million in jewelry. Kim vowed to tone it down ... and she's done that ever since. Notice she's not wearing jewelry.
BTW ... it's a huge moment for Kanye too, who broke down in tears meeting up with a longtime friend, Virgil Abloh -- Louis Vuitton's new artistic director of menswear. They go way back, and Virgil even worked with Kanye before taking on his most prominent role yet ... becoming the first black artistic director in the company's 164-year history.

Kendall Jenner Buff Hottie Wants to Kill My Family
Imagine going to the grocery store and running into a dude wearing a shirt that says he wants to KILL YOUR FAMILY!
That's what happened to Kendall Jenner on Wednesday ... but, there's one twist -- the guy with the grudge happens to have a body that SLAAAAYS.
Kendall says she was going out to get some milk when she ran into a super jacked dude sporting a "Kill The Kardashians" shirt at the market.
So, Kendall did what anyone in her situation would do ... she posted the video on IG.
No word on who the dude is ... but, good lord. #ArmsArmsArms
By the way, it's not the first time we've seen this shirt out in the wild -- remember Slayer guitarist Gary Holt wore it onstage during a concert back in 2015 ... after Kendall was spotted out in a Slayer shirt.

Meghan Markle & Prince Harry Our Royal Hat Game is Strong!!!
Meghan Markle is quickly becoming a woman of many hats, but her hubby, Prince Harry, managed to top hers Tuesday at the races.
Meghan and Harry hit up the Royal Ascot -- a hoity toity horse race outside London with more than $10 million in prize money available. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex arrived at the track in a horse-drawn carriage, and some pretty sweet headgear.
She wore a floppy white and black number, while Harry went straight Monopoly ... rocking a top hat. Seriously, all he's missing is the monocle.
Meghan's been on one royal outing after another since getting hitched to Harry in May, including a girls' trip with the Queen.
No ride with Her Majesty this time around, which is probably a good thing since Harry's got the door.

Stormy Daniels Thanks for the PR, Trump I'm Pushing High-Priced Panties!!!
Stormy Daniels is famous for taking off her underwear -- on camera and with Donald Trump, allegedly -- but now she's using her Trump-fueled fame to get women INTO lingerie ... for a price.
Stormy's launching her own line of intimates with designer Helen Hoey. They'll be sold at PULCHRA in Beverly Hills, which should already give you a hint they'll be high-end. We're told pieces in the collection will cost over $100 a pop.
The line is being described as "edgy and sophisticated with vintage aesthetics." Not sure what all that means, but seems like a lot of words for items that won't be on for very long.
Stormy will slip into the goods, first -- she's set to model in the lingerie campaign.

Trae Young Allen Iverson Reached Out ... to Give Me NBA Advice
Trae Young is on his way to the NBA Draft ... but before he got on the plane, he talked to TMZ Sports about everything from fashion to advice he's received from some of his NBA idols.
One guy who's reached out is Allen Iverson, Young says ... "I'm a fan of his!"
Young is projected to be a Top 10 pick -- but says don't sleep on the rest of the draft class ... "It's overlooked for sure. Some really good people."
The former Oklahoma star was also stoked to show off his new kicks -- OFF-WHITE Low 3.0s ... designed by fashion legend Virgil Abloh. The shoes cost around $600 a pair.
Young says he's been out in L.A. training -- but didn't work out for the Lakers while in town. So, pretty safe bet he won't end up in the Purple & Gold.
They've got the 25th pick anyway ... so there's no chance Young will be around that late.
Good luck!

Spanx Founder Sara Blakely Thanks, Kardashians!!! For Pimping Us Out
Kim Kardashian and the rest of the fam might have added a few million bucks to Spanx's revenue, and its billionaire founder, Sara Blakely, couldn't be more grateful.
We got Sara at LAX and our guy wanted to know just how much value the Kardashians have pumped into the brand. The sisters are NOT shy about letting it be known they rock Spanx every chance they get. Kim even blogged about doubling up on the footless tights.
Sara's totally aware of the Kardashians' shout-outs, and we ask her if the "all publicity is good publicity" theory applies ... even when haters shame celebs for wearing Spanx. You might be surprised with her answer.
Also ... Sara puts to rest the debate about whether it's kosher for men to ask if women are wearing Spanx.

Tekashi69 I Dropped $75k on Your Baby Mama, Chief Keef ... And I Groped Her, Too!!!
Tekashi69 is adding more fuel to the fire in his war with fellow rapper Chief Keef, this time by taking Keef's baby mama, Slim Danger, out on a $75k shopping spree at Gucci for her birthday.
Tekashi posted a clip at the Gucci store in NYC with stacks in his hand and Slim, who calls out Keef as a deadbeat dad in the clip. "If you don't know how to take care of your girl, n***as gonna take care of her for you," 6ix9ine chimes in. He later copped a feel too.
We're told the two happened to run into one another while Slim was in town to celebrate her bday. She's cool with Tekashi's Tr3way family, so Tekashi took her shopping to celebrate.
Slim made off with a fanny pack, sunglasses, wallet, and a dress ... totaling more than $75k. Unclear if she got to keep the giant 69 chain around her neck.
As we previously reported ... the two rappers have ongoing beef that's been going back and forth on social media, and doesn't look like Tekashi's squashing it anytime soon.
Your move, Keef.

Kanye West Nude Chicks Make My Shoes Famous
Do these new Kanye West shoes make me look naked?
That's not the actual tagline for Kanye's new Yeezys, but it coulda been. The Yeezy 500 Supermoon Yellows dropped over the weekend and, just in case you didn't notice 'em, he decided to have models -- most buck naked in just their Supermoons -- strike various poses.
This time the Clermont twins, and some porn stars ... including Lela Star did the honors.
You'll recall Kanye used a similar tactic earlier this year for the Yeezy Season 6 campaign -- using famous friends and some of these same models to pose as Kim clones.
You can say a lot of things about Ye, but you can't say he doesn't know how to push a product.

Paul Marciano Resigns from Guess Board ... Company Pays $500k to Accusers
4:15 PM PT -- Lisa Bloom says she represented 4 of the 5 accusers, who each claim they were sexually assaulted by Marciano by him groping or forcing them to perform sex acts. She says each of the women are opting to remain anonymous, and accepted the settlement because it is "preferable to litigation."
She added the women have retained their rights to tell their story one day.
Paul Marciano is stepping down as executive chairman at Guess after his company forked over $500,000 to 5 people who accused him of sexual harassment.
According to documents filed by Guess, Marciano resigned on Monday ... although the company will keep him on as Chief Creative Officer until January in order to make a smooth transition to a successor. He will receive his full pay until then, according to the docs.
Guess says it reached settlements with Marciano's 5 accusers. During a review of the allegations, Guess claims it interviewed more than 40 people and combed through more than a million pages of documents and emails.
The company's Special Committee found Marciano used "poor judgment" in the way he dealt with models and photographers. They also said he put himself in situations where it was "plausible" he'd be accused of misconduct.
As we reported, Kate Upton very publicly accused Marciano of sexual misconduct during her photo shoots and business meetings. It's unclear if she is among the accusers who settled.

Nick Jonas & Priyanka Chopra Come Fly with Me ...
Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra either don't care if people know they're banging ... or they're just really awful at hiding it.
Nick and the "Quantico" star arrived together at JFK on Friday headed off to who-knows-where -- but, one thing's for sure, this is a damn good looking couple ... even if they won't admit it.
Dating rumors started last year when they arrived together at the 2017 Met Gala, but she brushed it off ... claiming they were only posing together because they were wearing the same designer.
They also hit up a Dodger game together just a couple weeks ago.
Maybe they're rocking the same designer again as they jet off -- but something tells us they're whispering something hotter than fashion tips to each other.
Just sayin' ...

Anthony Bourdain & Kate Spade Suicides Trigger High-Volume Calls To Suicide Prevention Line
The tragic deaths of Anthony Bourdain and Kate Spade by suicide have sparked a wave of calls to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline ... TMZ has learned.
The Mental Health Association of New York tells TMZ ... the hotline has experienced a 25% increase in call volume compared to this time last week. The number has been shared by tons of celebs, which the MHA says has resulted in more people "being aware of the resource and calling the Lifeline to get help."
Stunned and saddened by the loss of Anthony Bourdain. He brought the world into our homes and inspired so many people to explore cultures and cities through their food. Remember that help is a phone call away US:1-800-273-TALK UK: 116 123
@GordonRamsay
The association has proven to deescalate moments of crisis and help people find hope. Last year alone, the Lifeline answered 2 million calls. The increase in calls comes on the heels of the CDC saying suicide rates in the U.S. increased more than 25 percent since 1999.
As we reported ... Anthony was found dead in his hotel room. Kate was found dead in her NYC apartment and both died by hanging.
RIP
7:00 PM PT -- Nobody is immune, either. Anthony's mom, Gladys Bourdain, told the New York Times she had no indication he was thinking of suicide, saying, "He is absolutely the last person in the world I would have ever dreamed would do something like this."
