Gossip / Rumors

So much for Dennis Quaid's divorce ... a judge has officially DISMISSED the case after the couple reconciled earlier this year and now they appear to be one happy family again.

We broke the story ... Dennis and Kimberly Quaid had reconciled back in March but the divorce petition was far enough along in the court system that they couldn't just withdraw it -- they had to go to a judge. So they did ... and now we've learned their wish was granted.

The couple -- which married back in 2004 -- have 2 children together -- but the kids were nowhere to be seen on Friday, when D & K grabbed their road bikes and peddled through Brentwood.

Justin Bieber's pal --and prolific music producer --Jason "Pooh Bear" Boyd is blasting reports insinuating he's involved in international cocaine smuggling and corrupting the Biebs.

Boyd tells TMZ ... he's NEVER been a drug seller in any "way, shape, form or fashion."

As for what Boyd was holding in the Instagram pic Justin posted Tuesday ... he's scoffing at reports that it's white powder. Boyd says it's actually a piece of FRUIT -- a slice of LIME.

And one more thing ... Photos surfaced this week showing Boyd with government officials in Suriname. One of the officials had a drug conviction. Boyd says it was all just a photo op connected to a Rick Ross rap concert in the country ... a concert he produced.

Justin Bieber may -- or may not -- have pulled a major stoner faux pas in Calabasas yesterday ... 'cause someone inside the singer's van dumped BONG WATER on the side of the road.

MAJOR STONER NO NO!!!!!

It's unclear WHOSE HAND is attached to the bong ... but we do know it's Bieber's ride. He's been toolin' around L.A. in the pimped out Mercedes party van all week long.

Here's what we know ... the bong dumper is definitely NOT Lil Za or Lil Twist ... 'cause, well ... the hand is white. Duh.

We're also told the van was en route to Jim Henson Studios ... and later that day, JB snapped a photo of himself inside a record studio.

Still, since there are no shots of the bong dumper's face ... it's impossible to tell if the perp is Bieber ... or one of Bieber's white friends.

Actually, does Bieber even have white friends anymore? Hmmmmm ...

No men? No problem ... at least for Vanessa Bryant and La La Anthony ... who took some time away from their famous husbands last night for a basketball wives dinner date in L.A. ... and TMZ has the footage.

The two hit up Madeo in West Hollywood -- without Kobe Bryant or Carmelo Anthony -- and after the meal, they posed up for photogs who snapped away like crazy.

So, are there actual NBA implications from the dinner date? Well, Carmelo becomes a free agent after this upcoming season ... and the Bryants could be trying to woo Carmelo away from NY and sign on with the Lakers.

Catherine Zeta-Jones is now making her OWN powerful statement in response to reports she's split from husband Michael Douglas ... proudly wearing her wedding ring in Connecticut Wednesday.

Douglas himself shot down the rumors over the weekend in Berlin, telling reporters he was still wearing his wedding band because ... surprise, surprise ... he's "still married."

You'll recall, reports surfaced last week that Douglas and Zeta-Jones were taking some time apart after 13 years of marriage ... partially due to the stress from Douglas' battle with cancer and Catherine's struggle with bipolar disorder.

But by the looks of it ... there's still hope yet.

Justin Bieber is adamant he did NOT drop the N-word on a new song ... despite multiple reports to the contrary ... and his camp tells TMZ the whole thing was a cruel hoax.

Justin's camp tells TMZ ... someone went to YouTube and created a fake account which looked very similar to Bieber's REAL YouTube account.

We're told the hoaxer then uploaded a song called, "What She Wants (Official) 2013" ... which featured a singer that sounds like Bieber dropping the N-word in one of the lyrics.

The story was picked up by multiple media outlets.

But we're told Bieber had NOTHING to do with the song and has since launched his record label's legal team to have the song wiped from the Internet.

The video has since been removed from YouTube ... and we're told the song that was originally posted was actually a song from an artist named Khalil Underwood.

The identity of the hoaxer is still unknown.

NBA player Royce White -- who famously missed his rookie season with the Houston Rockets due to mental health issues -- is at the center of a criminal investigation in Texas after allegedly beating up his then-girlfriend ... TMZ has learned.

We know ... White's ex-girlfriend Tania Mehra -- a Maxim model -- filed a police report on August 30 to report an incident that went down at Royce's Houston-area home back in June.

According to law enforcement, records show someone called 911 on June 22, 2013 to report a laceration above Tania's right eye. Cops say at the time, Tania claimed she suffered the injury from an "accidental fall."

But Tania changed her tune last week ... and filed an incident report in which she claims she LIED on the night of the incident -- and says in reality, Royce is to blame for her injury.

Cops tell TMZ, "The victim said she had lied earlier because the suspect played for the NBA and did not want the incident to damage his career."

Law enforcement also tells us, "The victim stated that White had assaulted her after she became angered by his advances toward her friend."

Cops say the incident is "under investigation" -- and so far, no charges have been filed against the 22-year-old NBA player.

Sources connected to the investigation tell us ... Tania claims Royce also grabbed a candleholder and threw at at her during the altercation ... but it missed, instead smashing into a mirror and causing it to shatter.

We've reached out to White's reps for comment -- so far, no word back.

FYI -- White was famously profiled on an episode of HBO's "Real Sports" in a segment that chronicled his battles with OCD and anxiety disorder.

He ain't just into S&M, "Fifty Shades of Grey" star Charlie Hunnam is also into THC ... at least judging by the guy's wardrobe.

Hunnam was spotted at LAX wearing an Alternative Herbal Health Services shirt ... a popular marijuana dispensary in West Hollywood that has a marijuana vending machine and sells weed soda ... seriously.

Fun Fact -- Charlie once sparked a bowl for Snoop Lion during an Internet show (scroll to 11:38).

Michael Douglas is still sporting his wedding ring ... and wants everyone to know he's STILL MARRIED to Catherine Zeta-Jones, despite reports he split from his wife.

Douglas was in Berlin over the weekend for the premiere of his movie "Behind the Candelabra" ... when a reporter asked him why he was still wearing a ring on his wedding finger.

Michael's response -- "I'm married."

Just last week, reports surfaced that Douglas and Zeta-Jones were taking a break after 13 years together ... and the break was, in part, due to the stress from Douglas' battle with cancer and Catherine's struggle with bipolar disorder.

Disney is none too pleased that TMZ got the cast list of "Dancing With the Stars," because we've learned the head of security has launched an investigation to find the leak.

The Mouse House apparently was not amused when we told you Valerie Harper, Leah Remini, Snooki, Elizabeth Berkley, Amber Riley and others will be appearing in the upcoming season. We're told security will start interviewing staffers tomorrow to find the alleged mole.

So we're guessing this won't make Mickey's parents happy ... we found out Tristin McMannis will be Valerie's partner. What's more ... we're told Valerie -- who has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer but is in remission -- is rehearsing like a champ and is getting no special breaks.

Sportin' a fresh suit, some fancy shoes and a bachelor mind-set, Michael Douglas caught a flight in France yesterday ... just days after reports surfaced that he separated from his wife.

68-year-old Douglas and 43-year-old Catherine Zeta-Jones haven't been photographed together since April -- fueling speculation the two are calling it quits on their 13-year marriage.

As for Catherine, she's reportedly been hangin' in New York with the couple's 2 kids.

No word on where Douglas was headed yesterday -- but that's a pimp suit, right?

Lamar Odom is not the only basketball player who was high on drugs during the season -- not by a long shot, TMZ has learned.

Multiple NBA-connected sources tell TMZ ... the big problem is that the league is only allowed to test players 4 times during a season. Because testing is randomized, the last test can be administered as early as January, and the season lasts for months thereafter. As one recently-retired NBA player put it, after the 4th test, "It's like Christmas Day. We can take whatever we want."

One NBA-connected source says pot is "ubiquitous" in the sport. The source adds, however, that most athletes who indulge do so in moderation so it doesn't have a perceptible impact on their performance. An NBA rep tells us ... weed is not only prevalent, it's hardly hidden -- he says the hotel rooms where the players stay, and even the halls, have the telltale smell.

The players we've spoken with all agree ... pot is prevalent. But some of the players say Lean -- Sprite and Codeine cough syrup -- has become a recreational drug of choice during the season. One player said it was even used during the recent playoffs.

One current and famous player tells TMZ, he estimates 30% of his fellow NBAers use hard drugs -- including Molly, Ecstasy, and Lean -- at some point during the season. He says he's never been aware of anyone doing cocaine during the season.

Another current and famous player tells us he estimates only 10% of NBA players use hard drugs, and no one uses cocaine during the season -- it's too risky. He also says Lean is a drug of choice.

An NBA source agrees -- he estimates 10-15% of the players use hard drugs during the season.

One NBA insider believes the drug use problem has gotten better over the last 5 years because of social media. He says players have been burned because pictures of them doing things they shouldn't be show up on Instagram and Facebook, and it's inhibited them.

Sean Kingston now says he WASN'T drunk when he got behind the wheel of his Lamborghini and roared down Sunset Blvd. Tuesday night, claiming he doesn't drink when he hits the clubs.

Kingston just went off on Twitter ... reacting to the TMZ video we posted this morning, which shows Kingston hopping into his Lambo, confessing he had "too much drinks" to answer our questions.

Kingston wrote, "For the record @TMZ I’m not 1 of these artist who u may think is living youngwild and free in Hollywood i care about my reputation and brand."

Must be a brand new policy ... considering he was so drunk at Playhouse just a couple months ago he got out of the driver's seat because he didn't want to get a DUI.

Lamar Odom would rather order tacos than answer questions about his crack problem ... and we don't blame him ... his order sounds delicious.

The NBA star was making a munchies run moments ago, hitting up a Taco Bell drive-thru near his and Khloe's Tarzana home ... and proudly displaying his wedding ring ... when he was pelted with questions about his drug addiction.

Lamar wasn't feeling talkative, but he did manage to complete his order ... laughing in the process.

It's a good sign Odom has stopped smoking crack -- at least temporarily -- because one does not typically make food runs while zonked.

As we reported, Lamar has returned home after going MIA for several days and is now listening to his wife Khloe's advice, though he's still undecided about seeking treatment for his crack cocaine problem.

Fun fact: the famous Taco Bell chihuahua died in 2009. R.I.P.

Lamar Odom has finally returned home ... with Khloe Kardashian ... but he remains undecided about seeking treatment for drug addiction, TMZ has learned.

Odom returned to his L.A. pad Monday after going off the grid for several days. Sources tell us both Lamar and Khloe are inside the home and addressing some serious issues, including Lamar's out-of-control crack problem.

We're told there's still no talk of divorce -- and Khloe is determined to help Lamar get his life back on track.

One source tells us Lamar is "open to reason and listening to the people who love him the most" ... a drastic change from a week ago, when L.O. rejected an attempted intervention.

We're told no decision has been made on possible treatment, but Lamar is "receptive."

Lamar seemed to be in good spirits Monday night -- when he was spotted out on a gas run near the home and stopped to pose for a photo with a young fan.

We know ... several of Lamar's NBA friends have tried to reach out to him, but it seems for the most part, L.O. is keeping to himself.

Khloe Kardashian hasn't given up on her marriage to Lamar Odom ... at least publicly ... because she's still wearing her wedding ring.

Khloe was on her way out of a medical building in L.A. Monday when the photo was taken -- and while it's obvious she was trying to hide her face, she was clearly NOT trying to hide her symbolic commitment to her husband.
