Pro football is just "not fun" for Marshawn Lynch anymore ... so says his famous rap star cousin who's 100% positive Beast Mode is NOT returning to the NFL.

Marshawn's cuz Mistah F.A.B. sat down with with "The Breakfast Club" -- when Charlamagne Tha God asked about rumors that Lynch is thinking about coming back to the league.

"He's done. It's not fun to him no more," F.A.B. said.

Long story short ... F.A.B. says Marshawn is super wealthy (saved his NFL cash like a boss) and has been spending his time building schools and affordable housing across the world.

In fact, F.A.B. says Lynch wants to mentor young players so they can get to "mogul status" too. '

Khloe Kardashian should reconsider the whole 'not officially dating' Odell Beckham Jr. thing -- so says one of her "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" co-stars ... who says they'd be a damn good couple.

Justin Bieber and Rita Ora connected for sure Wednesday night ... and Thursday morning, too.

The Biebs and Rita arrived separately at Warwick nightclub in Hollywood, Justin shrouded in a hoodie. All pretenses flew out the window on the way out, when they left in Bieber's SUV at around 2 AM and beelined it for a late night/early AM meal.

Kylie Jenner and PartyNextDoor added a touch of romance to Drake's Memorial Day party by getting up on each other on the dance floor.

It's the first time we've seen video of the new couple showing some PDA. Normally, they go out of their way to NOT look like they're together.

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris have pulled the plug on their relationship ... TMZ has confirmed.

The couple ended things after 15 months of blissful dating. They made their public debut at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards. No specific reason for the split yet, but we're told there was no huge drama ... such as cheating.

The news comes almost two weeks after Calvin was injured in a car wreck and forced to cancel several shows.

Khloe Kardashian has apparently broken her silence on the Odell Beckham situation -- posting tweets that seem to indicate the two aren't an item ... they were just boozy flirting at Drake's party.

Drake extended his holiday weekend with Hailey Baldwin by getting cozy with her on a date ... the night after they hung out at his insane house party.

Our sources say Drake and Hailey slipped into The Nice Guy Tuesday around 11:30 PM and got a table with another couple. We're told the table ordered shots -- and while you can see Hailey spent some time staring into her phone ... she and Drake were cozy enough that it was clear they were on a date.

Drake even pulled the move -- y'know ... arm behind her on the sofa. More date evidence? They pulled that other move when they left around 2:30 AM -- she went out the front, Drake took the back door.

This comes on the heels of multiple reports they kicked it at his Memorial Day party, but now we have photo evidence.

Hailey's got a type ... rich, famous, singing Canadians.

The 2 officers who interviewed Amber Heard the night she was allegedly attacked by Johnny Depp have spoken with LAPD brass, and our sources say they are adamant ... Amber had no visible injuries.

The officers spoke with superiors Tuesday afternoon and said they had no idea Johnny Depp was involved at all -- the 911 call came in under the name Heard, and they did not associate her with Depp.

The 2 cops say the information they had when they knocked at her door was only that there was a domestic dispute. Amber opened the door just a crack but would not let them in. They questioned her through the door and she said it was a simple verbal argument with her husband. She never mentioned Depp by name.

The officers told her they needed to make sure she wasn't declining help under duress, so they insisted on coming in and speaking with her. Amber obliged, and the officers say they looked at her closely enough to determine there were no marks, swelling or bruising on her face or other exposed parts of her body.

Our LAPD sources say precisely what several doctors told us ... if Johnny threw an iPhone at her pitcher style, and then followed up with hair-pulling and hitting, there would have been swelling at the very least, and most probably some immediate bruising or redness. The officers saw nothing.

The cops insist if they had seen any sign of injury they would have taken a report and tracked down the husband.

Forget about James Harden and Lamar ... seems like Khloe Kardashian has already moved on to her next baller -- NFL superstar Odell Beckham Jr.

TMZ Sports obtained pics of the two getting super close at Drake's pool party in Hidden Hills on Memorial Day ... with Khloe droppin' her big ol' butt right on top of the NY Giants superstar.

The pics were taken around midnight -- and our sources inside the party tell us KK and OBJ were "definitely into each other" and "looked like a couple."

By the way, in case there was any doubt the woman in the pics is Khloe -- we found video of KK wearing the same exact dress and Yeezy shoes at a different pool party earlier that day.

"Everybody Loves Raymond" star Madylin Sweeten dragged a soap opera creator's name through the mud ... according to him, and now he wants her to cough up $1.5 million.

In the suit, Bryan James says Sweeten smeared his name and business when she sued him ... claiming he duped her into investing in "Youthful Daze" ... an Internet soap.

James is asking the court to dismiss Madylin's lawsuit, and he wants the $1.5 mil for damages to his business and reputation.

Johnny Depp would never lay a hand on a woman and isn't capable of hurting anyone ... so says Johnny's first wife, Lori Anne Allison.

Lori, who was married to Johnny from 1983 to 1985, tells friends she doesn't believe Amber Heard's claim that Johnny brutalized her multiple times during their short marriage.

Lori's saying Johnny never got physical with her during their relationship ... he never even screamed.

She calls him a "soft person" who is even kind to animals. Lori and Johnny had a dog during their marriage and he was more loving with the pooch than most parents are to their kids.

Lori and Johnny are still friends and spoke as recently as last week when she called to offer her condolences over his mother's death.

Johnny Depp may have a credibility problem if Amber Heard's violence claims make their way to court ... because if she's right, his memory of events will be highly questionable, thanks to coke and liquor.

Sources connected to Amber tell us she's outraged Johnny is calling her a liar over the domestic violence allegations ... because he's almost always high.

Amber claims Johnny was "barely ever sober" during the 15 months they were married. She says he was perpetually high, except when he was shooting a movie, when he hired a chef and a trainer and got sober. Once the movie wrapped, it was back to drugs and alcohol.

Amber claimed in her legal docs he is "often paranoid and his temper is exceptionally scary for me." She goes on ... "Johnny's paranoia, delusions and aggression increased throughout our relationship. So has my awareness of his continued substance abuse."

She claims on both occasions where she has accused him of domestic violence, he was "inebriated and high."

Mickey Rourke has Johnny Depp's back ... that much is clear.

Amber Heard claims in legal docs ... during their entire relationship Johnny Depp was verbally and physically abusive, and she lays part of the blame on drug and alcohol abuse.

TMZ has obtained the legal docs Amber filed to support her claim that Johnny smashed an iPhone against her face Saturday night, which she claims triggered her move to file for divorce. As we reported, cops came but she declined to file a report.

Amber claims, before the alleged incident over the weekend -- during her birthday party at home last month ... Johnny showed up "inebriated and high." She says after the guests left, they argued and he threw a magnum-sized bottle of champagne at the wall and a wine glass at her. She says he grabbed her by the shoulders and pushed her onto the bed. She also says he grabbed her by the hair and shoved her to the floor.

Amber says she didn't see Johnny again for a month, until Saturday night. She says he was drunk and high again and they were talking about his mom's passing the day before. She says he "suddenly began obsessing" about something, got mad, grabbed the phone, "wound up his arm like a baseball pitcher and threw the cell phone at me striking my cheek and eye."

Amber Heard was not hated by Johnny Depp's mom ... in fact, Amber showed compassion for the woman in her last months ... so claim sources connected to Amber.

The sources say Betty Sue Palmer was in and out of the hospital for months, and on many occasions Amber went to her bedside at the hospital when Johnny wasn't there. The sources say Amber managed the schedules of the nurses Johnny hired.

Amber sources say Johnny was indeed absent from his mom's life during their marriage, but it wasn't Amber's doing. They say it was Johnny's choice not to see her.

The sources say Amber does not believe any members of Johnny's family hated her. As we reported, multiple sources told us Johnny's mom and siblings detested her ... even before she married Johnny.

Our Amber sources say she actually has pictures of her snuggling with Johnny's son, Jack.

Justin Bieber's back in the dating game with an on-screen hottie ... or so it seems.

The Biebs and actress Nicola Peltz -- she starred on "Bates Motel" and 'Transformers' -- arrived for a dinner date at Mastro's Steakhouse in Bev Hills Wednesday night. She looked casual in black, while Justin looked parched ... in a severe sunburn.

He's a freak for some sun.
