Holidays

Brittany Cartwright isn't feeling blue this Christmas season ... even though it's her first since being separated from her husband Jax Taylor.

Photogs caught up with "The Valley" star outside LAX, where she spilled all on her upcoming holiday plans amid her breakup from the "Vanderpump Rules" alum.

As Brittany put it ... she's going all out with the decorations so that her son, Cruz, can have a "very special" holiday. However, there will be one important family member missing from their celebration ... Brittany confessed Jax would not be looped into her plans this year.

Kim Kardashian's holiday season just got a little less merry -- she’s got a broken foot to deal with right before Christmas!

The SKIMS founder posted an IG Story pic Friday showing off her foot in a brace, with 2 crutches in tow, and didn’t hold back in the caption ... writing, "FML, broken foot for the holidays."

Kim added an angry swearing emoji to really drive home how much of a hassle this broken foot is -- especially since the Kardashians are all about going big for the holidays.

No breakup blues for Sabrina Carpenter here -- she’s ending the year spreading holiday cheer while plugging her new variety special ... and Barry Keoghan's clearly nowhere near her mind RN!

The singer was serving up major holiday glam at the NYC screening of Netflix's "A Nonsense Christmas" last night, looking stunning in a fuzzy black-and-white faux fur outfit, paired with matching heels.

Sabrina was totally in her element, striking poses for the cameras before opening the door for fans and inviting them in to check out her special, which is dropping later Friday on Netflix.

Trisha Yearwood isn't letting her husband Garth Brooks' legal woes keep her from getting in the holiday spirit ... performing at the annual Christmas tree lighting in Washington, D.C. last night.

Decked out in a sparkling red pantsuit, Trisha performed for President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff ... taking a bow after wrapping up her seasonal set.

Backstreet Boys singer Kevin Richardson says he didn't see Flavor Flav get kicked out of the green room at the NBC tree lighting ceremony in NYC ... 'cause he woulda stepped in to help his friend if he did.

Kevin was at LAX on Thursday when a photog asked him about what went down backstage at Wednesday's tree lighting event at Rockefeller Center ... including Flav's claim that security guards kicked him out.

The BSB says he saw FF and dapped him up before their gig, but says the greenroom was a madhouse and security was extra tight in the wake of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson's murder down the street earlier in the day.

A couple of looters may've dressed like Santa Claus for a recent heist, but they acted more like the Grinch ... smashing glass and making off with goods in a new video making the rounds online.

Check it out ... security camera footage documents the exact moment a couple of bandits decided to act naughty instead of nice Sunday, smashing through an electronics store's glass door and filling their sacks with items behind the counter.

One of the culprits -- who slips and nearly falls onto a pile of glass after rushing into the store -- also helps himself to a shelf filled with tumblers, booze and more.

Flavor Flav's all about fighting the power, standing up to NBC security ... but, it seems they were just doing their jobs -- 'cause we're told he wasn't expected at the tree-lighting, and security booted him.

Here's the deal ... Flav took to X to air some grievances about NBC kicking him out of the Backstreet Boys dressing room at the the Rockefeller Center tree lighting ceremony Wednesday night -- despite all his work with them during the Olympics.

However, sources tell TMZ security had a very good reason to kick him out of the event ... 'cause he wasn't on the list of expected attendees.

All Mariah Carey wanted for Christmas was a peaceful holiday concert ... but fans had something else in store for the pop star when they started throwing punches during her show.

Check it out ... a brawl broke out during one of MiMi's recent Christmas concerts after a verbal spat and a thrown drink escalated things amid the singer's performance of "All I Want for Christmas Is You."

As you can see in the video, the drama started between 2 women ... where the one with curly hair pushed the other from behind. The shoved concertgoer then responded by tossing her drink onto the other lady -- sparking chaos.

Khloé Kardashian is once against facing off against Blac Chyna's mom Tokyo Toni ... after making seemingly shady digs about the Internet personality's charitable acts at Thanksgiving.

Here's what went down .... Tokyo documented her decision to feed the homeless while her granddaughter Dream Kardashian's other relatives -- including other grandmother Kris Jenner -- celebrated with a lavish meal in Palm Springs, California. Remember, Chyna welcomed daughter Dream with ex Rob Kardashian in November 2016.

When one fan called out the strikingly different ways the celebs chose to ring in Turkey Day, Khloé chimed in ... and appeared to call Tokyo's generous acts a publicity stunt.

Flavor Flav claims he got the boot from hanging out in the Backstreet Boys green room backstage at NBC's yearly Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Lighting on Wednesday night.

The rapper took to X saying he was invited to the event but claims when he got together with the BSB guys in their dressing room, security quickly came along and told him NBC allegedly didn't want him in the area he was in and asked him to leave.

He went on to describe what he views as a very contradictory situation writing, "At the same time,,, their social media woman came up and asked to capture social content."

Diddy will be getting his freak on over Christmas -- but it's not what you think -- his federal jail is giving him several options to play sports and games ... with a special holiday spread.
