Gossip / Rumors

While pics surfaced of Jon leaving a nightclub with a lady friend last week, the not-so-happy couple appeared together at something called the Pennsylvania Women's Show this weekend.

Although Jon claims the woman was just a friend, he did admit his actions "showed poor judgement" ... much like Kate's choice in hairstyles.

Last night we got another Tupac-alike, this one claiming to be the world's "first Tupac impersonator."

You be the judge ...

13 years after he was shot and "killed" in Las Vegas ... a man appearing to be 2pac was spotted in a bar on Bourbon Street last weekend.

We were unable to get any sort of DNA evidence -- but this photo is good enough for us.

Thug life, bitches.

You know the music industry is hurting when two major record execs can't pay a $1,500 bill.

Atlantic Records executive Michael Kyser and Shawn Costner, of the Universal Music Group, recently treated Jay-Z to drinks at an NYC nightclub, but according to the New York Post, the high-powered duo had some trouble footing the bill.

A manager for the club alleges that Kyser and Costner agreed to split the tab, when Costner's corporate credit card was declined -- leaving Kyser with the $1,500 check. Kyser gave the club his credit card, but then left without signing a receipt. The exec still hasn't paid the bill and is now supposedly contesting the charge -- even though the club still has his card.

Apparently, Jay-Z did leave a $500 tip for the waitress, but left the table before the bill arrived.

Too bad all of Jay-Z's fans are too busy illegally downloading his songs to care.

Both Mel Gibson and Russian singer Oksana Kolesnikova have already blasted affair rumors -- yesterday in L.A., a very upset Oksana insisted she's "happily married" -- and 4-months pregnant with her hubby's child.

Mazel tov!

There have been reports that Mel Gibson was having an affair with a Russian singer and that it played a part in the break up of his marriage -- Mel has denied it, and now the singer is sounding off too.

TMZ spoke with a rep for Oksana Kolesnikova, who gave us the following statement: "Sorry to hear about Mel Gibson's divorce. Somehow Oksana is being linked to Mr. Gibson, but there are no emotional ties between the two that I am aware of.

Oksana has in the past entertained Mr. Gibson with her piano music as he dined at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Yes, I definitely welcome the opportunity to set the record straight, our Oksana is not romantically involved with Mr. Gibson."

Not only is Snoop Dogg's wife alive and well -- but she's pretty pissed off over the "tip" posted on a California Highway Patrol website which said her dead body was in Snoop's basement.

TMZ obtained the following statement from Snoop Dogg's management: "Of course, the CHP rumors are absolutely not true, totally ridiculous, and most of all hurtful to Snoop Dogg and his family.

At 3:19 yesterday afternoon -- while Snoop was getting high live on the internet -- an anonymous tipper called the CHP to alert them of the alleged heinous situation... but apparently it was so ridiculous that no one at the CHP bothered to forward it to the L.A. County Sheriff's Department.

Dark shades not only hide the sun...

When asked about their relationship, Kate Gosselin told our camera "We're good."

Of course, it's only been a few days since some scandalous footage hit the web, allegedly showing Rimes kissing her really hot Lifetime movie co-star Eddie Cibrian.
