Diddy Star-Studded IG Dance-a-Thon ... Links w/ J Lo, Drake

Diddy and Drake
THE DIDDY AND DRAKE DANCE OFF
UPDATE

8:11 AM PT -- The fundraiser pulled in over $3.7M in total. We're told CÎROC joined the Combs family by donating the first $1,000,000 to the cause as part of the #WeAintGoinNowhere social movement.

UPDATE

6:48 AM PT -- 4/13 -- Before the night was over, Drake jumped on Diddy's fundraiser to perform his viral "Toosie Slide" dance with Diddy and family. The two have come a longggg way since 2014 when Diddy punched Drake at a night club in Miami. The beef started over Drake's single "0 to 100 / The Catch Up" ... which Diddy allegedly had first, but never released ... the song was a massive hit for Drake.

Diddy's virtual dance-a-thon for coronavirus relief is going swimmingly -- so much so, he ended up cutting a digital rug with his ex, Jennifer Lopez, and her current fiance, A-Rod.

The Bad Boy boss got his Team Love dance-a-thon fundraiser started on Sunday -- which is meant to raise money for healthcare workers on the front lines of the coronavirus fight -- and he hosted a slew of celebs who hopped on briefly and boogied with Sean.

One of the most notable cameos came from a former flame of Diddy's ... J Lo logged in at one point and danced with her old boyfriend, all while sitting in the company of her current boo, Alex. It made for a sweet moment -- no awkwardness that we can sense.

Jen tells Diddy that A-Rod is his biggest fan, and is apparently always asking her to slap some of Diddy's old hits, especially the ones with Mase on them. Well, Diddy obliged that fix right then and there in person, and all three of them started to get down. Eventually, it was just Diddy and J Lo dancing -- all with Alex's blessing, we have to assume.

Other stars who joined the dance-a-thon included LeBron James, DJ Khaled, Burna Boy, Megan Thee Stallion, Kelly Rowland, Winnie Harlow and lots of others who were in the giggin' mood.

Diddy put up all the deets for the fundraiser in an IG post, and he's got the link for donations up in his bio as well.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

It's all for a great cause, and definitely a mood boost we could all use right now.

Jennifer Lopez High School Sweetheart David Cruz Dead at 51

Published | Updated

Jennifer Lopez's ex-boyfriend -- who she dated for nearly a decade -- has died ... TMZ has learned.

J Lo's high school sweetheart, David Cruz, died Saturday in Mount Sinai West Hospital in Manhattan ... this according to the NYC Medical Examiner's Office. We're told David died of heart disease -- no other info was immediately available.

Jennifer and David got together when she was just 15 (he's only a year older than her, BTW) and they dated for about 10 years before calling it quits in the mid-'90s as J Lo's fame was skyrocketing.

David and Jennifer did attend a few events together back in the day -- when she wasn't well known -- they sure looked like a happy couple.

David's partner of 18 years, Isa, tells us, "He was kind and loving. He never held on to anything and was always very open. He was a devoted father, he helped raise his step-son who is now in the Marines. He loved the Yankees and Knicks. He loved going to the theatre with me. My favorite moment was family date night, because it wasn't just special for me but for the kids as well. He always made sure to end things with an 'I love you.'"

Jennifer's gone on to have super high profile relationships since then -- including dating Diddy, Ben Affleck, Casper Smart, Drake, Marc Anthony (whom she married) and now ... Alex Rodriguez, to whom she's currently engaged.

David was 51.

RIP

Alessandra Ambrosio I Let My Dogs Out, But ... What's My Ex-Fiance Doing Here?!!

Published

Forget social distancing, Alessandra Ambrosio's just having trouble putting space between herself and her ex-fiance while out for a walk with her current guy.

The retired Victoria's Secret supermodel was out Tuesday in Santa Monica walking her pooches with her BF, Italian fashion designer Nicolò Oddi. Not too long into her walk, she learned it's a very small world after all ... cause she ran into her ex and baby daddy, Jamie Mazur.

It appears they had a brief and somewhat tense encounter ... based on their faces. The former couple, of course, share 11-year-old daughter, Anja, and 7-year-old son, Noah. Jamie had proposed to Alessandra in 2008 but a decade later in March 2018, she announced their breakup.

Four months later, Alessandra started dating Nicolò. We think you'll get no complaints from this group about keeping 6 feet apart!

Michael Strahan My Ex-Wife's Abusing Our Children ... I Want Primary Custody!!!

Published | Updated

Michael Strahan is going to war with one of his ex-wives over custody of their twin girls ... and he claims his ex is abusing their kids.

Michael claims his second ex-wife, Jean Muggli Strahan, is physically and emotionally abusing their teenage daughters, Sophia and Isabella, and the ex-NFL star is gunning for a judge to strip Jean of primary custody and give it to him ... according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ.

Michael claims Jean's been engaging in a "pattern of abusive conduct towards the children for years" ... he claims he's got proof of the physical and emotional abuse and says he's gonna detail it in sealed docs.

Strahan paints his ex as a bad parent ... claiming Jean's not taking their kids to court-ordered therapy sessions and says she's the reason Sophia and Isabella keep missing their volleyball matches and equestrian events.

Michael, who has visitation rights, wants the girls to move in with him in New York ... and he wants his ex held in criminal and civil contempt for her alleged actions. As for Jean, who currently lives in North Carolina with the 15-year-old girls, he wants her to have the same visitation he currently has, but that's it.

As we've reported ... Michael and Jean are already in a bitter child support dispute ... and now, things are getting even uglier.

'Bachelorette' Alum Chad Johnson Charged In Dom. Violence Case ... Still Holding Hands With Ex

Published
Chad Johnson, Annalise Mishler 3/9/2020
IT'S COMPLICATED
UPDATE

3:30 PM PT -- Chad has just been charged with 6 misdemeanors stemming from his domestic violence arrest.

UPDATE

He's charged with one count of corporal injury to his ex-girlfriend, one count of battery, one count of witness intimidation, one count of trespassing and two counts of vandalism.

Chad Johnson and Annalise Mishler are looking like they're reunited -- after ripping each other for days over his domestic violence arrest -- but he's not off the hook, criminally speaking.

The former 'Bachelorette' villain and his ex-girlfriend hit The Cheesecake Factory Sunday night in Sherman Oaks, CA, and put on an eyebrow-raising PDA show as they left the restaurant.

The two seemed to deliberately waffle when asked if they're back together -- Chad instead directed people to pay for their fan account for the inside scoop -- but did say they're still working through things.

Chad also scoffed a bit at the pending charges he's facing for domestic violence and robbery after he allegedly got physical with Annalise last month. He seems to think the charges might be dropped. Annalise points out, it's not up to her.

She's right ... the policy for domestic violence cases in L.A. is that they automatically go to the District Attorney to decide how to move forward, regardless of what transpires between the suspect and alleged victim.

So, the D.A.'s office will ultimately make the call if Chad gets charged for the February 24 altercation ... not him or Annalise.

As we reported ... they traded allegations of trying to ruin each other's lives last week via YouTube vids and social media, but maybe it's all water under the bridge now.

For them at least -- not the D.A.

Amanda Bynes Calls Off Engagement ... To Fiance of 3 Weeks

Published | Updated

Amanda Bynes won't be walking down the aisle after all -- she and her fiance of just 3 weeks have called off their engagement.

AB's groom-to-be, Paul Michael, confirmed the news Sunday ... telling In Touch they had, in fact, broken up. He added he still loves Amanda, though, and considers her his best friend.

Word of their split comes after Amanda recently cleared her social media pages of any photos of her and Paul together, which led some to believe they'd parted ways. She hasn't spoken on the split herself yet, and the reason for things coming undone remains unclear.

Of course, as we first told you, Amanda's family wasn't going to let it happen in the first place -- so the writing might've been on the wall for this from the get. Her mother is her conservator, and Amanda can't do something like getting hitched without her conservator's consent. We'd been told her family felt it simply wasn't in her best interest.

We came to learn that the engagement ring Amanda was flashing all over the Internet was actually purchased off of Amazon, for a measly $49. No real diamond, either.

Still, Amanda seemed pretty smitten with Paul -- whom she'd met in AA classes, and had only been dating for a few months before he popped the question. She even filmed a video with him and introduced him to the world as the "best person on the face of the Earth."

Amanda met Paul in AA and they've only been dating for a few months. She introduced him to her fans on social media by calling him FEBRUARY 2020
MEET MY FIANCÉ

We were told by sources close to her family that Amanda had a boyfriend right before Paul, and they felt he was simply a rebound. On to the next, it seems.

Brooke Burke & David Charvet We're Finally Divorced!!!

Published

Brooke Burke and David Charvet are free to move about Malibu as single people -- they've finally hammered out their divorce and they're both walking away with plenty of assets.

Brooke filed to divorce the ex-'Baywatch' star way back in April 2018, which might make ya think this was a nasty split, but the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- make it seem pretty damn amicable.

First off, they're putting the co in co-parenting -- agreeing to 50/50 physical and legal custody of their 2 kids -- Shaya and Heaven. They're also going 50/50 on all expenses for the children, and neither will pay child support.

As for property, Brooke gets 2 homes -- one in Malibu and a condo in Santa Monica -- while David gets a Malibu property of his own. Let's face it ... both of those bodies belong at the beach.

The exes share an art collection that they plan to divvy up down the road. Brooke gets ownership of 2 fitness companies, and David gets a few other companies, including Malibu Stone and Building Materials.

As for money ... they're splitting up their bank accounts, and they've agreed neither will pay spousal support. That's it. Easy, breezy divorce ... and both have already moved on.

We saw Brooke with her new guy down in Cabo last year, while David was lounging with a new bikini babe in St. Barts.

'Bachelorette' Alum Chad Johnson Ex-GF Says He's Out to Ruin Her Life ... Refuses Accountability

Published | Updated

Ex-'Bachelorette' star Chad Johnson followed up a trip to the hospital for an evaluation by going on a smear campaign against his ex-girlfriend packed full of lies ... so says the ex herself.

Annalise Mishler says her ordeal with Chad's one of the most difficult things she's ever been through ... but it's being made way worse because he simply refuses to take responsibility for his behavior over the past 2 weeks.

Now, Mishler claims Johnson's out to ruin her life by posting false allegations to make himself look and feel better and make her look worse ... but she says it's very clear he's lying.

If you're unfamiliar, let's backtrack -- Chad was arrested for domestic violence and robbery last week after he allegedly got physical with Annalise. He addressed the situation the following day, admitting to getting angry and punching a hole in the wall -- which was seen on video -- but denying he'd put hands on her while also apologizing.

However, he followed that up days later with a concerning social media post depicting what looked like a makeshift hanging contraption, with the caption, "it'll be okay." The post sparked suicide fears and a welfare check ... and he was taken to a hospital for further evaluation less than 24 hours later after more troubling posts.

One of them included unfounded claims directed at Annalise, which ended with him writing, "All you had to do was hug me. You destroyed my life and it didn't even workout for you."

Johnson also made a YouTube video listing all the ways Mishler wronged him, essentially blaming her for his issues. She posted a response calling his vid "the most bizarre smear campaign attempt i've ever seen" and textbook manipulation.

Annalise feels he simply needs to be accountable for how he acts when he drinks and stop lying. She also has some advice for other people who are in a relationship and see red flags.

Drew Carey Attends Amie Harwick's Wake

Published | Updated

Drew Carey is paying his last respects to Amie Harwick, his ex-fiancee who he called "a beautiful person who didn't deserve to die like she did."

"The Price is Right" host looked understandably somber Thursday morning outside the Huff & Lakjer Funeral Home in Pennsylvania. He walked into the wake, along with Amie's family and friends.

Several of her loved ones cried and hugged outside the funeral home.

As we reported ... Carey opened up about Amie's tragic death recently on his SiriusXM show, calling his engagement to her the "best relationship of my life." He says they shared a special connection over music, and he shared a setlist he made specifically for her.

We broke the story ... Harwick was killed after she was allegedly attacked by an ex-boyfriend in her home, which caused her fatal fall from a third-story balcony.

Gareth Pursehouse has been arrested and charged with her murder. Pursehouse had a long, troubling history with Harwick ... beginning when she filed for restraining orders against him nearly a decade ago.

Ray J & Princess Love Still Married ... But Living Separately

Published | Updated

Ray J and Princess Love are still husband and wife -- doing the whole co-parenting thing -- but they're not back under the same roof, and that's just the way they like it for now.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... they still haven't reconciled after she claimed in November he'd "stranded" her and their daughter, Melody, in Vegas after a heated argument. Remember, Princess was weeks away from giving birth to their second child at the time.

We're told they're getting along fine now ... doing family stuff together with no drama or arguing. This includes over the holidays, which is also when they welcomed their baby boy, Epik.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Our sources say the couple's living situation -- Princess stays at her luxury Beverly Hills condo while Ray J's at a nearby bachelor pad -- helps keep the peace. We're told she keeps the kids but Ray comes by to visit daily, and he has their dogs at his house.

As for the potential threat of divorce ... our sources say there's zero talk of that currently, and they're using the time apart to focus on themselves and being good parents. Princess, we're told, is very happy with the current set up.

That doesn't mean Ray J's not still trying to make amends though ... our sources say he went all out for Valentine's Day, covering the Bev Hills condo with more than 2,000 roses for both Princess and Melody.

As we've reported ... Princess said she was done with the marriage after the Vegas incident, and Ray J briefly stopped wearing his wedding ring. He had it back on a few days later, though ... but said Princess was still mad.

We're told things are looking a lot better now, but clearly, they still have plenty of smoothing out to be done.

Jenelle Evans & David Eason Buy New Dog Bed, Food w/ Kids In Tow

Published | Updated
UPDATE

9:06 AM PT -- Jenelle just revealed the new pup, a Goldendoodle named Rosie. In a blog post, Jenelle says she got Rosie for her kids after she and David split to make her kids feel as comfortable as possible.

UPDATE

Jenelle Evans says she's not back together with David Eason, but they're still doing a lot together ... like buying new pet supplies, including a dog bed.

The former 'Teen Mom' star was spotted Tuesday shopping at a Walmart in Leland, NC -- where she was leaving the big box store with whom we're told was none other than her baby daddy, DE, and a couple of her kids tagging along. As you can see, they had their hands full.

One of the kids is holding what appears to be a doggy bed or pet bed of some kind. We're also told by eyewitnesses, their bags had dog food inside as well.

In case we have to remind you ... David killed their last family dog, which led to their kids being temporarily taken away. Since then, they've gotten the kids back ... and they've also welcomed a few new animals into their lives, including at least 2 dogs and a goat.

It's unclear if they still got the hounds running around the yard, or what these supplies might be for exactly ... but when ya buy new dog stuff, you probably have a new dog around.

As for whether they're actually a thing again in the wake of their split, we'll let you decide. If it looks like a relationship and walks like a relationship, it's probably ... ah, you get it.

Drew Carey Emotional Tribute to Amie Harwick ... 'I Loved Her Very Much'

Published

Drew Carey's still reeling over the murder of his ex-fiancee, Amie Harwick, who he's calling a "beautiful person who didn't deserve to die like she did" ... in his first heartbreaking public tribute to her.

Carey opened up about Harwick on his weekly SiriusXM show, calling his engagement to her the "best relationship of my life." "The Price is Right" host got very emotional talking about his love for Amie -- even after their breakup -- and the special connection they had over music.

He shared a special setlist for his radio show ... one he'd made specifically for her. It included "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" and "Dedicated to the One I Love."

Drew also touched on Amie's alleged murderer, saying she was killed by an ex-boyfriend who had been stalking her for about 10 years ... even when she was in a relationship with Carey. He says Harwick's ex "finally got her."

As you know ... Gareth Pursehouse has been arrested and charged with Harwick's murder. Cops say he attacked her in her home, causing her to fall to her death from a third-story balcony. Harwick had filed for restraining orders against him nearly a decade ago, but it's believed he may have had contact with her at a recent work event.

Carey ended his tribute to Harwick by thanking musicians who touch people like him and Amie, and saying "I loved her very much." He then played his setlist for her and says he might not be back on the radio program for a while as he recovers from the tragedy.

Kylie Jenner, Travis Scott, Stormi Three's Company

Published | Updated

Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott are still hanging out quite a bit in the wake of their breakup -- but it looks like they're only doing so when their kid's in the picture.

KJ and TS were spotted with young Stormi Sunday at Sky High Sports in Woodland Hills -- which is a giant trampoline warehouse. As you can see, it was just the three of them here (plus at least one bodyguard trailing behind) ... and the parents got pretty close.

It looks like Kylie might've even attempted to take a selfie of the trio while they were walking in. BTW, eyewitnesses tell us they didn't rent the place out -- the family just rolled up like regular customers, although they did bounce around in a VIP area.

In any case, it's clear they're not averse to one another. We've heard they're on a up trend, romantically, since Stormi's recent birthday party. Remember, sources told us the former couple were hanging out pretty much through the whole party and gave off signs of a possible rekindling.

Anyway, later on Sunday ... they hit up a nearby mall and plaza where we're told they stopped off for frozen treats at Afters (great ice cream spot out there). At this point, you could definitely make out one security guard who was rolling with them, but again ... pretty intimate setting.

If they aren't meant to be together romantically, it's at least comforting to know they can get together and co-parent their child successfully. Good on them.

Josie Canseco Splits From Logan ... But Not Because of Tana

Published

Josie Canseco is back in the single lane ... she and Logan Paul broke up after about a month of dating, but not because of his "date" with his brother's ex, Tana Mongeau.

Sources close to the former couple tell TMZ ... Josie and Logan called it quits about a week ago, this after she completely stopped talking to him. Guys aren't the only ones who ghost.

It was a pretty short relationship ... as we first told you, Josie and Logan only started dating last month after years of running in the same friend circles.

Logan and Tana raised eyebrows this week by going on a very visible "date" in Los Angeles, but our sources say Jake Paul's ex is NOT the reason Josie stopped talking to Logan.

We're told Josie and Logan broke things off BEFORE photos of him with Tana surfaced, so she's no home-wrecker.

Our sources say Josie is telling friends Logan just wasn't the one for her, and she worries he simply used her for publicity. We're told Josie knows about Logan's photos with Tana and feels they are just hanging out as a publicity stunt and aren't actually into each other.

Josie's hunch about Logan and Tana is correct ... they just admitted the whole thing is a ruse. Expert trolls, those two. Remember her fake marriage to Jake?!?

Now, Logan joins a growing list of Josie's famous exes, along with Brody Jenner and Mike Stud.

Drew Carey's Ex-Fiancee Ex Boyfriend Charged With Murder

Published | Updated

Gareth Pursehouse -- the man accused of murdering Drew Carey's ex fiancee, Dr. Amie Harwick -- has been arrested again and charged with her murder.

Pursehouse was re-arrested Wednesday on a no bail warrant and was charged with one count each of murder and first-degree residential burglary with the special circumstance allegation of lying in wait ... according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney.

Gareth is facing the death penalty or life in prison without the possibility of parole, if convicted. The D.A. says no decision has been made on whether to seek capital punishment.

We broke the story ... Amie was murdered this weekend after cops say Pursehouse attacked her, causing her to fall from a third-story balcony in the Hollywood Hills.

Amie and Gareth dated years ago and as we reported ... Harwick filed for 2 restraining orders against him in 2011 and 2012, claiming he attacked her multiple times and even threw her out of a vehicle on the side of the freeway.

Pursehouse was initially arrested for murder Saturday afternoon, but he bonded out of jail Tuesday night after being held on a $2 million bail.

Now, Pursehouse is back in custody and the D.A. says on Thursday he will be arraigned.
