Karl-Anthony Towns Surprises Jordyn Woods W/ Romantic Getaway ... To Celebrate Anniversary
Karl-Anthony Towns is making boyfriends all over the world look bad ... the NBA star surprised girlfriend Jordyn Woods with a super romantic weekend getaway for their 2nd anniversary!
Woods shared some of the lovely moments from the weekend ... saying the Minnesota Timberwolves center brought her to the same place President John F. Kennedy and his wife Jackie had their honeymoon.
FYI, the Kennedys spent a couple of weeks at San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, CA, after getting married in 1953.
KAT showered Jordyn with jewelry, a new Chanel and Tom Ford wardrobe along with a personal photographer for a getaway photoshoot.
"I had no idea we were going anywhere," Woods said, "and Karl surprised me with a weekend trip to the same resort John and Jackie Kennedy had their honeymoon, an entire wardrobe, an amazing photoshoot with a top photographer, and an unforgettable experience."
That's not it ... Woods was also surprised with several private dinners, including one on a sandy beach with a guitarist -- and a spa day plus golf.
"I love you @karltowns!!," Woods said, "You make me feel like a queen and always remind me everyday."
"Best anniversary weekend."
This marks the 2nd anniversary for the couple who made it official back in 2020. Last year KAT credited Woods with changing his life, and turning him into a better man.

Exclusive

12:07 PM PT -- Well, it's official ... the bride and groom appear to have exchanged vows in front of friends and family -- and Kourtney's wedding dress may just be the highlight of what looks to be a very extravagant affair.
Photos of the ceremony are starting to surface, and you see Kris Jenner walking Kourtney to the altar -- she went with a white gown, which had a massive train that needed a couple of handlers at the back to keep it off the ground. Indeed, she looks pretty stunning.
Travis was suited and booted in a traditional black tux as he waited for his wife -- and eventually, they linked up and got on their knees side by side ... where someone fired off a close-up shot of KK's dress from the back.
Of course, her bridesmaids were also trotted out ... and everyone's looking good. Kim is there with North.
At this point, the ceremony seems to be in the books. A reception is soon to follow. Congrats!
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are just hours away from exchanging vows and saying their "I Dos" ... and in true Kardashian fashion, they teamed up with an iconic brand to make it all happen.
As you know, the family has been all over Portofino leading up to the big day ... hitting restaurants, historic spots and even the water on a massive yacht.
Sources close to the couple say the wedding ceremony will go down at the seaside compound of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. The estate is also where the family has been staying during their Italian getaway.
TMZ broke the story ... Kourtney and Travis also rented out the Castello Brown -- a historic structure that once served as a military lookout in the 13th century. The location will serve as the venue for the wedding reception following the ceremony.
And, get this ... our sources also tell us the entire family has been pulling exclusive looks from the D&G archives over the last 3 months to wear for the wedding weekend.
As we reported, Kourtney and Travis took the plunge off the Regina D'Italia, a $60M super yacht earlier this week. The boat was reportedly once owned by D&G as well ... so there's a ton of cross-over.
The partying won't just stop in Italy though ... our sources say once back in L.A. Kourtney and Travis will hold a larger reception for all their friends back home in the near future.

Exclusive Details
- 717 shares
Rolando "Rollie" Romero will have the Royal Badness on his side when he faces Gervonta Davis next weekend ... 'cause the boxer just copped some "Purple Rain" boxing shoes -- complete with a portrait of Prince!!
TMZ Sports has learned ... the 14-0 boxer hit up Houston artist Aztek Kustoms to get custom-made kicks for his WBA lightweight title match against Tank.
Now, Rollie is a HUGE Prince fan ... so it was only right to pay homage to one of the greatest musicians of all time during the huge event -- and, what better song than "Purple Rain"?!?
May 2022
Aztek used extra rhinestones and bright colors to create the "Purple Rain" theme ... and Prince's iconic symbol and portrait are etched on the sides of the shoes.
We're told it took eight hours to complete ... and Aztek is super hyped to see the 26-year-old wear 'em in the ring at the Barclays Center in New York on May 28.
"It's pretty exciting," Aztek said. "it'll be my first pair of shoes being worn in a major fight!"
This ain't the first time Rollie got customs kicks featuring Prince ... last year, Aztek painted the cover of the 1984 song, "Erotic City", on his Air Force 1s.
Prince -- who sold over 150 million records worldwide -- would be proud. RIP!

Travis Scott Nike Drop Gets Over 1M Entries in 30 Mins for Shoes ... First Since Astroworld

Exclusive

Travis Scott still has the golden touch, or at least a VERY loyal group of fans, because his first merchandise drop since Astroworld just went crazy online.
Travis released a new collab Friday with pants, jackets, shirts and vests -- but it's the two pairs of Travis Scott Air Trainer 1's that really had fans in a frenzy, trying to score some of their own.
In fact, the hype was so wild for the shoe, Travis and his team needed to create a raffle to make everything fair.
A source close to Trav tells us more than a million people signed up for the raffle for the shoes in just 30 mins ... proving he's obviously still got it when it comes to hawking merch.
Security and the ability to prevent bots from scoring a pair was also a must for TS and team -- we're told they worked with web developers to set up anti-bot protection -- as his drops are some of the most heavily poached online.
This isn't it for Travis and Nike ... we've also heard there's rumblings of additional Nike releases next week, including an Airmax next Friday.
Of course, Travis has also had insanely successful releases with McDonald's, Fortnite and his Cacti hard seltzer flew off the shelves when it was released.
The Nike launch is Travis' first since Astroworld, and while litigation and the investigation continue into what happened, Travis has slowly started to creep back into mainstream entertainment ... including his performance at The Billboard Awards last week.

Sydney Sweeney broke an agreement with a swimwear brand to promote their products, then turned around and wore the suits on "Euphoria" ... this according to a new lawsuit.
The HBO star is being sued by the swim and lifestyle brand LA Collective for allegedly breaking her contract to model and promote the company's swimsuits.
According to docs obtained by TMZ, the fashion brand claims it reached an agreement with Sydney last year, where she would be the influencer for the launch of their new line, "Somewhere Swimwear."
The brand says Sydney initially appeared to be on board and approved all their designs and production prototypes ... but they claim her camp suddenly canceled the agreement without any explanation or cause, refusing to proceed.
And, get this ... the brand claims Sydney then appropriated the designs for her own use, wearing the swimsuits on at least 5 episodes of "Euphoria."
The swimwear company says they expected to sell more than $3 million worth of suits under the deal and want the actress to cough up big damages for backing out.
We reached out to Sydney's camp ... so far no word back.

Kim Kardashian can add another magazine cover to her collection -- she's the star of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue.
The S.I. Swim crew made the announcement Monday morning -- Kim, Ciara, Maye Musk and music artist Yumi Nu will grace the cover for 2022.

Melania Trump Dr. Biden Got Vogue Cover, I Didn't ... Obviously, Media's Biased
Melania Trump is back on our airwaves, and one of the first things she did since her hubby left office was take shots at Dr. Jill Biden ... over none other than a magazine appearance.
The former First Lady did an interview with "Fox & Friends," and she was asked about how she might've been treated by the media versus how President Biden's wife is currently being received ... and they brought up the fact that DJB graced the cover of Vogue last year.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
You might recall ... Jill was featured as the lead story for their August issue, and the cover was released a couple months before that. The subhead read, "A First Lady for All of Us."
Welp, MT has some thoughts -- and her takeaway sentiment is ... the media picks and chooses who they want to celebrate (even in the exact same post), and apparently did so here since Melania never made it on Vogue's cover ... nor was she asked.
In first interview since leaving the WH, Melania is asked, “With your business background, and your fashion background, and your beauty, never on the cover of Vogue?”

Melania suggests an agenda might be at play with decisions like these -- and she also says ordinary folks can see it clear as day. The point is emphasized by the interviewer pointing out that Kamala Harris made it on the cover before being sworn in, and Michelle Obama got tapped several times as First Lady when Barack was in office.
The interviewer also points out that Melania, objectively, would've made for a great cover story -- aside from being FLOTUS, she has extensive experience in fashion and business.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Despite some seeing this as sour grapes on Melania's part, she insists she had better things to do during her run than be on the cover of Vogue -- but if we're being honest, she likely would've jumped at the opportunity.
Seeing how Donald is very likely going to run again, maybe she'll get another shot! Or ... not.

Model Corinna Kopf I Was Banned From Twitch ... For 'Inappropriate Attire'
OnlyFans model and Fortnite gamer Corinna Kopf just got the boot from Twitch ... and apparently, it was all because of her wardrobe choice.
Kopf -- who has a massive audience with nearly 6.5 million Instagram followers, 2.5 million Twitter followers and 834k followers on Twitch -- griped about the temporary punishment on Thursday ... saying the streaming platform is "so picky choosy with what they decide what to ban people for."
Kopf claims to have received an email from Twitch stating she was suspended one day for "inappropriate attire" in her channel profile.
In the message, Kopf claims Twitch said she wore attire that violates the Nudity and Attire policy, which includes "showing visible outlines of genitals or exposed underbust."
"Couldn’t even tell you what got me banned but I see thong bikinis all day long on Twitch," she added. "Doesn’t make a lot of sense to me 🤷🏼♀️ actually it’s really f***ing weird."
Kopf says it's not the first time she's gotten punished on the streaming platform ... and based on her confusion, it may not be the last.
We reached out to Twitch and Corinna ... so far, no word back.

Kyrie Irving Nike 'Unlikely' To Extend Shoe Deal ... Star Bashed Co. Last Year

Breaking News
- 5.6K shares
Kyrie Irving might not have to worry about having "trash" shoes anymore ... Nike is reportedly "unlikely" to renew its signature shoe deal with the Brooklyn Nets star after next season.
Irving's relationship with the company could change "dramatically" in the future, according to ESPN ... but his (potentially) final shoe release is slated to go down as expected in the fall.
If the report is true, there is a possibility retro Kyrie shoes could still be released in the future ... but as of right now, it sounds like the Kyrie series is getting shelved.
Remember, the 2016 NBA champ -- who's been a Nike athlete since 2011 -- went off on the Swoosh back in July ... calling leaked pics of his "Kyrie 8" sneaker "trash."
He claimed he was not part of the design or marketing of the kicks ... saying, "I have Absolutely nothing to do with them!"
Irving later admitted he handled things poorly ... and he was working with the shoe giant to fix his issues with the 8s.
Of course, Irving has been at the center of a ton of controversy over the last year ... missing half of the NBA season after he refused to get vaccinated for COVID. It's unclear if the coronavirus drama is playing a part in Nike's impending decision, considering they already had beef to begin with.
Nike elected not to confirm or deny the claims ... telling ESPN, "We don't comment on contracts or rumors or speculation. Kyrie remains a Nike athlete."
We've reached out to Nike for comment.

Gunna's still locked up, but there's one company reaping the benefits of his clothing choice as he turned himself in ... customers are flooding its site to look like their favorite rapper.
Gunna was booked on RICO charges Wednesday in Fulton County, and while his mug shot appeared to be a little fuzzy, some eagle-eyed fans couldn't help but notice the logo on the hoodie he was wearing -- it's a brand called LaRopa.
We spoke to a rep for the clothing company who tells us the day Gunna's mug shot was released, the brand saw a 15% increase in sales for the hoodie, compared to a normal day.
Not only did sales jump on Wednesday, the trend continued Thursday as well ... with a 24% increase for the top.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
We're told Gunna doesn't have a stake in the company ... he just happened to be wearing it during his arrest. However, he's not the only celeb to have rocked LaRopa in the past ... Playboi Carti, Bella Hadid, Erika Jayne and Young Thug -- who is also locked up on related charges -- have all been spotted in LaRopa before.
TMZ broke the story, Gunna's lawyers claimed the rapper is innocent, hammering cops for using lyrics against him and pointing out the many things Gunna has done for his community -- including the fact he helps to feed about 400 students per week.

Kim Kardashian Kanye Told Me Career was 'Over' When I Styled Myself
Kanye West isn't confident Kim Kardashian can continue to be one of the leading figures in fashion -- at least not without his help -- as she explains in a new episode of the family's Hulu show.
Thursday's "The Kardashians" gives fans a look back at Kim's appearance at the WSJ's 2021 Innovator Awards, where Kim was honored. It happened back in November, but what many didn't realize -- it was the first time in a LONG time Kim styled herself without Kanye's help.
According to Kim, Kanye wasn't impressed with her choice -- a brown, form-fitting leather dress -- saying she looked like Marge Simpson and that her career was "over."
Leading up to the event, Kim revealed she was nervous about her upcoming choices, so safe to say Kanye's alleged criticism didn't help.
Not only that, Kim also talked about something Kanye made very clear -- he was pissed about her 'SNL' monologue -- especially the fact she said she "divorced" him. At the time, Ye hadn't signed the divorce docs, so he felt it was wrong she said things were over.
As you know, a judge eventually declared Kim legally single, signing a document in March.

StockX Nike Better Check Itself!!! ... We Don't Sell Fake Kicks

Breaking News
- 114 shares
StockX is firing back at Nike after being accused of selling fake kicks in a recent lawsuit ... saying the mega brand's claims are straight-up "baseless."
Nike and StockX have been going at it for months over a separate issue about an NFT release ... and on Tuesday, things heated up when the resale site was accused of having a bogus authentication process.
The Swoosh claims the company bought four pairs of "authenticated" pairs of Nike kicks that were actually phony.
"Those four pairs of counterfeit shoes were all purchased within a short two-month period on StockX's platform, all had affixed to them StockX's 'Verified Authentic' hangtag, and all came with a paper receipt from StockX in the shoe box stating that the condition of the shoes is '100% Authentic,'" Nike said in the docs.
Nike also says in the new filing that StockX is "knowingly deceiving consumers" with the fake Nike products and is hurting their brand's reputation.
StockX didn't take the accusation kindly and struck back on Wednesday ... saying Nike's claims are false and odd ... as they allege Swoosh executives buy and/or sell kicks off their site.
"We take customer protection extremely seriously, and we've invested millions to fight the proliferation of counterfeit products that virtually every global marketplace faces today," StockX said.
"Nike's latest filing is not only baseless but also is curious given that their own brand protection team has communicated confidence in our authentication program, and that hundreds of Nike employees -- including current senior executives -- use StockX to buy and sell products."
This one ain't ending any time soon.

Harry Styles It's a Bird, It's a Plane ... Soars High in Yellow
Harry Styles seems to really be on a high as of late ... spotted flying around in a bright yellow costume, as he shoots an upcoming music video.
Harry was all smiles as he did his best impression of a canary -- decked out in yellow bedazzled feathers -- while filming what we're told is a music video in the UK over the weekend.
Reports say Harry actually trained at a local circus, seen in the photos, to prep for his latest project just to make sure he didn't get injured in the process. He also allegedly attempted a walk on a tightrope ... and perhaps got shot out of a cannon?!
Styles' latest stunt comes on the heels of an iconic Coachella performance where he headlined and brought out Shania Twain ... the two performed "Still The One" and "Man! I Feel Like a Woman".
Harry's new album "Harry's House" is slated to drop May 20.
