Holidays

Angelina Jolie wasn't about to be a "Girl, Interrupted" during her latest outing ... as she donned oversized shades and a trench coat for some last-minute holiday shopping.

In a video obtained by TMZ ... the actress attempted to keep a low profile while browsing the aisles at Blick Art Materials in Los Angeles on Saturday. Angie was clearly determined to pick up some craft supplies ahead of the Christmas holiday ... as the Oscar winner inspected the inventory closely -- and eventually purchased a number of goods.

Here's hoping Angelina's 6 kids -- Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne -- don't catch wind of this outing ... in case Angie was shopping for one, or perhaps all, of them.

Mariah Carey is the queen of Christmas ... and that was more apparent than ever on Saturday night in Aspen.

Mariah fans waited patiently as she shopped at the Gucci store, and the moment she walked out the door, she was immediately met with a flood of people waiting to get their picture with her.

Check out the video ... you can hear fans singing her massive hit, "All I Want For Christmas Is You," and telling MC how much they loved her recent Christmas tour.

Friends of Na'im Lynn shouldn't expect any holiday cheer from the comedian ... he doesn't believe in gifting pals with presents or cards -- except for one A-list exception.

We caught up with the funny man at LAX, where the stand-up star explained his reasoning behind skipping gift exchanges with friends during the holiday season. As he put it ... he "never" buys holiday presents for his friends, declaring it's weird to give pals gifts for any reason.

He added ... "If you do buy a gift, you definitely can't give a card. First of all, there's no cards made for best friends. You've never seen that in the card section. You see mother, father, child, grandmother, secretary, love -- never for homies."

With No Shave November behind us, we're taking a look at what's growin' this "Decembeard"! After you scroll through these scruffy snaps, voting if these celebs look better with scruff or no scruff, is an absolute must!

Jacob Elordi rose to fame as a clean-shaven hunk, but lately, he's pushed the grooming to the side and is rockin' the facial hair ... but which look has you sayin "Oh eLORDI?!"

"Aquaman" himself, Jason Momoa is known for his luscious hair and scruffy beard, but in a land far away -- back in 2011 -- he once hit the red carpet, showing off his chiseled jawline. Should Jason bring back the clean look or keep it buff and scraggly?

Prince William is a dishy man and usually opts for a squeaky clean face, but are you down enough for his beard to fully embrace?

Cops are investigating a wild fight that broke out at a California outlet store — while also searching for the troublemakers caught on dramatic video.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the brawl erupted outside the Citadel Outlets in Commerce, CA, last Thursday — and a witness filmed part of it with a cell phone camera.

Check out the footage posted to X ... A group of mostly young women are going at it near a bunch of parked cars outside the mall. They start throwing punches and hurling around the word b***h," but it's unclear what sparked the confrontation.

Kenny G knows his favorite holiday song inside and out ... he was the one who recorded it, after all.

We caught up with the famed saxophone player at LAX earlier this week ... and, since it's the time of year when holiday songs dominate the radio, we had to know what the prolific musician thinks is the best song of the season.

Kenny says he's not trying to blow his own sax here ... but, he says if people need some easy listening while sitting around a crackling fire this Christmas season, then look no further than the song, "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" -- the one he recorded back in 1994.

Nick says watching Mariah autograph RiRi's boob was "hot" ... and he hopes it becomes a trend.

No one does Christmas quite like the Kardashian-Jenner crew ... and Kim Kardashian made sure all eyes were on her as she sleighed her way into the holiday season with a festive family outing!

Kim turned heads -- and maybe broke a few necks -- rocking a sizzling cherry-red leather zip-up dress with a daringly low neckline that left little to the imagination as she limped her way into Casa Vega in Sherman Oaks in L.A. Thursday with her broken foot.

Kim’s been rocking that injury for a while now, but let’s be honest -- it hasn’t slowed her down one bit. For this outing, she paired her holiday glam with a black medical boot and even brought along her trusty mobility scooter for backup, adorned with garland.
