Tom Cruise Daughter Bella Approves of Dad's Collab with Gaga

Tom Cruise's new friend/collaborator, Lady Gaga, has gotten the seal of approval from one very special fan ... Tom's daughter, Bella, who -- SHOCKINGLY -- is 29 years old!!!

Gaga posted a photo on Instagram Tuesday, kissing Tom on the cheek, thanking him for coming to the show .. and Bella was quick to like the pic.

Bella has kept a low profile over the years. She's been estranged from her mom, Nicole Kidman, but apparently has maintained a relationship with T.C.

Nicole and Tom adopted Bella and her brother, Connor, back in 1995 while they were married. As you know, that marriage disintegrated in 2001.

Tom and Nicole shared custody for a while, but the relationship between Bella and Nicole was strained ... reportedly over Scientology.

Maybe there's been a shift, because Bella has been liking some of Nicole's Instagram photos lately.

Time heals all ... or at least lots of stuff.

Johnny Depp Did 'Cavity Search' for Coke on Amber ... Psychologist Claims

Johnny Depp searched Amber Heard for cocaine once -- an inspection that apparently went in and around her body, including private areas ... at least according to a forensic psychologist, who claims Amber made the allegations during her evaluation of the actress.

Dr. Dawn Hughes was Amber's witness who took the stand Tuesday to combat what Dr. Curry -- JD's witness -- alleged about her last week ... namely, that Amber suffered from a couple different personality disorders and that she was making up symptoms of PTSD.

DISTURBING DETAILS

Hughes testified to the exact opposite ... telling the jury her evaluation of Amber -- which consisted of about 29 hours total -- made her believe she was, in fact, a victim of domestic abuse.

There were some disturbing things Dr. Hughes claims Amber told her ... including allegations of Johnny kicking her in the back, pushing her, slapping her and alleged instances of sexual violence, much of which she says occurred when JD was under the influence.

One other bombshell claim from Dr. Hughes, based on what she says Amber told her ... Johnny, at one point, allegedly subjected Amber to a "cavity search," poking around on the inside of her vagina to see if he could find cocaine he believed she was hiding from him.

AN ASSAULT ON AMBER

Another disturbing alleged tale ... Dr. Hughes claims Amber told her that Johnny penetrated her with a bottle once, and that the whole time she was worried it might be broken and cut her up inside.

She relayed even more of Amber's claims ... including that Johnny was incredibly jealous, allegedly contacting male costars of hers to say he had eyes on the set ... which Hughes says made Amber incredibly anxious that he'd show up on set at any given moment.

James Franco and Billy Bob Thornton were name-dropped as some of the guys Johnny was supposedly angry about ... anger he allegedly took out on her in the privacy of their home.

Amber Heard Fails to Get JD's Suit Tossed ... Her Turn to Make a Case

Amber Heard made a last-ditch effort to get Johnny Depp's defamation claims tossed after his side rested their case -- but a judge said hell no ... and now, it's time to tell her side of the story in court.

The actress's legal team filed a motion Tuesday asking the judge to dismiss several of Depp's claims -- which was to be expected and is apparently fairly standard in these types of cases.

Ben Rottenborn argued that Depp and co. couldn't win the case because they had not proven that Amber acted with actual malice with her op-ed piece ... claiming that she didn't even come up with the headline, and that the ACLU actually penned the first draft for her.

For their part, Amber's team is standing firm that her underlying claims of DV are true -- insisting Depp, through his testimony and other evidence, essentially showed how he'd abused her in some capacity ... even if it was more so verbal/emotional than physical.

Johnny's attorneys offered their rebuttal in fierce terms -- Ben Chew came out swinging from the outset as he tried to bat down Amber's attorney's framing ... yelling in the courtroom that Amber, herself, was the abuser in this case.

In the end ... it would appear the judge here mostly sided with Johnny because she refused to strike his claims -- save for one issue about the WaPo headline, which she tabled for later since that evidence hasn't been introduced yet.

At this point, Amber and her team are going to have to present their side -- thus far, it's been all Johnny. Amber is expected to testify on her behalf this week ... so it'll be interesting to see how she refutes Depp's current characterization.

On the issue of Johnny prevailing in keeping this case alive, a rep for the actor said, "Numerous witnesses have testified that Ms. Heard engaged in psychological, verbal and physical abuse towards Mr. Depp and we are pleased at Chief Judge Azcarate’s ruling to continue with the trial after Mr. Rottenborn failed to convince the court that there was reason to dismiss the case."

The rep adds, "We stand confident in the future of the case and for the truth to be continued to be shared."

D.L. Hughley Pete's Antagonizing Kanye With Kim & Kids Tattoo

OUTTA POCKET
TMZ.com

D.L. Hughley thinks Pete Davidson is out of line for getting the initials of Kim and Kanye's 4 kids inked on his neck.

We got the comedian at LAX and asked him about Pete's new tat, which seems to read "KNSCP" ... a collection of letters many believe stand for Kim, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm. BTW ... the initials of their kids are in order of descending age.

It's still unclear whether or not Kim co-signed on the new ink ... or had any idea Pete was doing it at all.

D.L. says it's a troubling decision from the 'SNL' star, given all the hostility between Kanye and his estranged wife's new boyfriend, and he's taking it as a shot across the bow from Pete.

D.L. says it's not fair to Kanye ... in fact, he says it's downright disrespectful.

D.L. has his kids' names tattooed on his body ... another reason why he would be really pissed off if he were in Kanye's shoes, and would have plenty to say about it ... which is interesting, because Kanye has so far remained mum.

Bottom line for D.L ... the ink is on Pete's body and he's dating Kim, but those are still Kanye's kids.

Olivia Wilde Sudeikis Serve Caught on Video

APRIL 2022
NOT THE SCRIPT
BACKGRID

Olivia Wilde kept her composure after being served legal documents on behalf of her ex, Jason Sudeikis ... which you can now see on video.

The footage from the awkward moment, which went down on Tuesday at CinemaCon, has finally surfaced ... and lo and behold, Olivia's handling of it all was as professional as everyone described it.

Check it out ... OW was right in the middle of hyping her new movie, "Don't Worry Darling," and about a minute or so into her speech -- somebody comes up to the stage and drops a manila envelope at her feet. She pauses, asks if that's for her ... and then picks it up.

She openly wondered if it was a script, and playfully joked that she was going to open it right then and there to unpack the mystery -- which she did. As soon as she saw the contents, Olivia simply said, "Oh okay, got it" ... and carried on like nothing had happened.

Olivia held on to the envelope -- marked "personal and confidential" -- for a good while as she finished her monologue, and eventually ... tucked it behind her.

As you know, it was later revealed the papers were custody docs from Sudeikis -- but he denied knowing they'd be served in the manner and time that they were, putting the blame on the process server company. The issue the docs addressed was in relation to jurisdiction.

Jason and Olivia share two young children together ... they split in late 2020.

Christina Haack To Ant Anstead I'm Not a Bad Mom, I'm a Soccer Mom!!!

Christina Haack is going all out to prove she's not the crappy mom that ex-husband Ant Anstead wants folks to believe ... sitting on the sidelines for her kids' soccer games.

Christina was in full-on soccer mom mode Saturday, plopping down in her portable chair next to daughter Taylor to watch son Brayden on the field. For Christina, it's her first public appearance since Ant filed for custody of their son Hudson and ripped her mommy skills.

Christina was not only there with her children from her first marriage to Tarek El Moussa, but with his parents, they made a day of it ... watching Taylor compete in a separate game.

It doesn't appear Hudson was there ... so he must've been with dad.

TMZ broke the story ... Ant went OFF on Christina in legal docs filed Thursday, accusing her of being an absent mother, putting Hudson at risk and using the kid as a social media pawn.

Christina fired back in legal docs of her own Friday, seeking to poke holes in Ant's allegations. She told the court there's no need for an emergency order to grant Anstead full custody of 2-year-old Hudson, and so far, the judge agrees.

No word on the score in her kids' soccer games, but Christina's definitely looking to score parenting points.

Amber Heard Has Less Than 10 Min. of Screen Time ... In 'Aquaman 2': Report

Amber Heard's career may already be suffering because of Johnny Depp's trial -- she reportedly has a significantly smaller role in 'Aquaman 2' ... amounting to mere minutes.

According to film journalist Grace Randolph -- who's known to get solid comic book movie scoops like this -- Amber will, apparently, be featured in less than 10 minutes of screen time in "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom."

No other context was offered, which is actually crucial to understanding this -- namely, whether Amber's supposed reduced presence is a recent development, or if it'd been written that way since the beginning. In any case ... it's interesting this news is surfacing now.

The film wrapped in January, with director James Wan posting a congratulatory IG with Jason Momoa and Patrick Wilson (a new character) ... but strangely, not mentioning Amber at all. She was a huge part of the first film -- Jason's love interest -- and yet ... crickets.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Jason himself doesn't appear to have been tagging, posting with or mentioning Amber either on his social media these past several months -- so that, too, is kinda telling. He has been doing some promotional stuff for 'Aquaman' here and there ... but always solo, or with Pat.

BTW, Amber herself also doesn't seem to have been doing much, if any, promo for 'Aquaman 2.' Most of her IG activity centers around her personal life ... except for a snap in October, when she posted a photo of herself in signature Mera red hair, simply writing ... "Red-dy."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Of course, the film itself has also been bumped schedule-wise -- it was originally supposed to be released around the holidays this year ... but Warner Bros. pushed it back to March, citing COVID-related production delays.

The 'Aquaman' sequel has been in the works for a long time -- and Amber was announced as reprising her role from the get-go. The question ... is the trial actually affecting things??? Fact is ... us normies will never know for sure, unless someone higher up spills the beans.

These films are living, breathing entities subject to change until they're actually released. Assuming this report is true, WB could easily attribute sidelining Amber for story reasons as opposed to hanging it on the court revelations that have surfaced these past few weeks.

With that said, fans of Johnny -- of which there are many amid this trial -- are probably giddy to hear this rumor. As you might know, there's an unofficial petition going around calling for her to be recast in 'Aquaman 2,' and it's already got 2 mil-plus signatures. 😬

Amber Heard Has Donated Way Less Than $3.5 Mil Pledge, So Far ... ACLU Says In Depp Trial

Amber Heard is getting called out in court for allegedly failing to follow through on a huge donation to charity -- the ACLU says she gave them less than half of her $3.5 million pledge -- though she's still got a few years left to fulfill that promise.

Here's the deal ... when Amber reached a divorce settlement with Johnny Depp back in 2016, she announced she would donate her entire $7 million payout to charity, splitting it between the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles and the ACLU ... to be paid within 10 years.

Amber's pledge was revisited Thursday in Depp's defamation trial against Heard ... with ACLU honcho Terence Dougherty saying the non-profit received 4 donations in Amber's name, totaling only $1.3 million.

LACK OF DONATION

What's more, Dougherty says Amber only gave the ACLU $350k directly, while Depp wrote them a check for $100k. The ACLU says the other payments included $500k from a donor-advised fund at Vanguard and $350k from a donor-advised fund at Fidelity.

And, get this ... Dougherty says the ACLU believes the $500k payment was actually from a fund set up by Elon Musk, whom Amber dated after her split from Depp.

Dougherty said Elon emailed the ACLU's executive director, Anthony Romero, back in 2016 indicating Amber would donate the $3.5 million over 10 years, but he says 2019 was the last year the ACLU got a donation from Heard.

They also say she held back from released her op-ed until the release of "Aquaman" to capitalize on publicity for the film.

It's just another juicy nugget in a trial full of 'em ... like this bizarre testimony Wednesday from Johnny and Amber's former doorman, Alejandro Romero.

COURTROOM CLOUDS

In a pre-recorded deposition played in court, Romero smoked from a vape pen while driving and recalled the time Amber thought someone was breaking into their home, when it turned out to just be a dog scratching at the door.

The jury laughed as the video played in court, and it even got a reaction from the judge ... who called it a first in her time on the bench.

Rob Kardashian 'I Didn't Love Chyna When We Got Engaged' ... She Held Gun to My Head Several Times

UPDATE

4:26 PM PT -- Rob got heated on the stand, Chyna's attorney continued to point out the fact Rob didn't have any marks on his face after she allegedly attacked him with a metal rod. Rob shouted, "Stop trying to make it sound like it didn't happen ... There were no marks on my face or neck. That doesn't mean it didn't happen."

UPDATE

He also touched on loving photos Chyna had posted when the two were together, making it seem like they were in a happy relationship -- saying they were mostly Chyna's idea for social media clout. In photos, Rob said, "I don't like to leave the house, it upsets me. I'm insecure about my body. I've gained some weight. I don't like going out."

Rob Kardashian says his relationship with Blac Chyna started when he was going through the worst part of his life, and says he didn't even love her when they got engaged ... all during bombshell testimony.

Rob took the stand Wednesday in the case between Chyna and his family. He said things in his relationship with Chyna happened fast ... and thought she was right for him because she accepted him when he was going through his "lowest point."

He testified things went south quickly, and when he asked her to marry him, he didn't even love her ... "It wasn't real love. I had a baby with this girl."

Rob testified Chyna beat him at least 5 times over the course of their relationship. He continued, "I had a gun held to my head several times by this woman. That's not love."

Rob also detailed the night when Chyna allegedly strangled him with a phone cord, saying she'd been doing cocaine and drinking all night. He says the incident caused him to hire full time security out of fear for his life and for his daughter, Dream.

As we've reported, all of Rob's sisters, except Kendall and Kourtney, have taken the stand over the last couple of weeks. During Khloe's testimony, emails she had allegedly sent E! execs were read in which she expressed concerns Rob and Chyna's turbulent relationship could hurt the family brand ... she also suggested she might leave 'KUWTK' if the volatile behavior continued.

In other testimony, Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble say they believed Chyna had posed a very real threat to Rob's life ... Gamble says he intervened one night during a nasty fight between the couple -- where Chyna allegedly threatened to kill Rob.

Chyna's suing the family for $100 million ... alleging they torpedoed her "Rob & Chyna" show and in turn, caused her to lose out on a ton of money.

Olivia Wilde Served Custody Papers by Sudeikis at CinemaCon

UPDATE

5:00 PM PT -- A source close to Jason tells TMZ ... "Papers were drawn up to establish  jurisdiction relating to the children of Ms. Wilde and Mr. Sudeikis."

UPDATE

The source adds ... "Mr. Sudeikis had no prior knowledge of the time or place that the envelope would have been delivered as this would solely be up to the process service company involved and he would never condone her being served in such an inappropriate manner."

Olivia Wilde endured a bit of embarrassment at CinemaCon this week -- while she was in the middle of screening the trailer of her new movie -- her ex served her legal docs.

The awkward moment was seen by multiple people who were in the room Tuesday when OW was on hand in Vegas to screen a never-before-seen trailer for her erotic thriller flick "Don't Worry Darling" -- which stars her beau Harry Styles and Florence Pugh.

The word is ... while Olivia was talking on stage, somebody came up and placed a manila envelope right down next to her at her feet -- which was marked 'Personal and Confidential.'

Olivia was photographed picking it up, taking a peek inside ... and then carrying on like nothing had really happened. But something certainly had -- according to Deadline, there were court papers in there courtesy of Jason Sudeikis ... with whom she shares two children.

The outlet says, citing sources, the docs involve child custody. As you know, they publicly split about a year and some change ago ... and since then, she's been in a whirlwind romance with Harry -- whom she also cast in her highly-anticipated film.

It appears that Jason and Olivia were getting along okay in the wake of their split -- but this clearly suggests otherwise. You gotta figure Jason wouldn't just do this to embarrass her if he didn't have to ... so, presumably, he hadn't been able to get these to her in a normal setting.

In any case, it definitely isn't pretty -- and lends to the idea that ... maybe they're not so copacetic as they put on. Also, this could potentially mean a custody battle is brewing. 😬

Corey Gamble Chyna Threatened To Kill Rob ... I Broke Up Their Fight

Corey Gamble says he heard Blac Chyna threaten to kill Rob Kardashian multiple times during the night of their blowout fight ... once over the phone and again in person.

Corey was called to the stand Tuesday for the first time in Chyna's trial, giving his account of the fight the Kardashians say was very violent.

CG, who told the jury Kris Jenner is his partner in life, testified he was awoken that night from an incoming call from Rob to Kris ... and when Kris put the call on speaker, he heard Chyna screaming in the background over Rob.

Corey says he heard Chyna say to Rob ... "F*** you, I'm a kill you fat mother f*****."

Seeing it as a volatile situation, Corey says he knew he needed to help Rob, so he jumped out of bed, got dressed in a hurry and rushed over to Kylie Jenner's house only a few blocks away, where Rob and Chyna were staying.

Corey says he parked behind Rob's car and headed to the front door, which was unlocked. While he went alone, Corey says Kris wanted to go too, but he told her to stay put because he feared the situation could be dangerous.

At the front door, Corey says he heard Chyna shouting at Rob in anger, telling him she hated him and threatening that she "would kill him."

Once inside, Corey says he saw Chyna about 7 feet away from Rob, and she was holding a large rod of some sort in her hand, which she dropped when she saw Corey.

Chyna then ran towards Rob and picked up a long phone charging cord, Corey testified, whipping Rob and hitting him on his shoulder.

Corey says he jumped between them to break them apart and was hit in the process. He told the jury he told Rob to "get the hell outta here" because he thought the situation was dangerous, also testifying Chyna reeked of booze.

CG says Chyna took off after Rob as he tried to leave, telling the jury she was furious and wanted to keep attacking, but Corey says he stopped her from chasing after Rob and even tried to hide her keys.

Realizing he had blocked in Rob's car with his own, Corey says he went outside to move his whip ... but when he did, Chyna jumped back on Rob and continued hitting him, striking blows to Rob's head.

Corey says Chyna then took a nearby patio chair and threw it at Rob's car, hitting the front, and then tried to grab a small table and throw it as well ... but Corey says he stopped Chyna from doing so.

In earlier testimony, Chyna denied throwing anything at Rob's car and says she didn't threaten to kill him or hit him.

Khloe Kardashian Thought Rob & Chyna's Toxic Behavior Would Hurt Family's Brand

Khloe Kardashian just had her time on the stand, revealing she thought Blac Chyna's potentially dangerous behavior could damage the family's brand ... and even made her reconsider continuing to film "Keeping Up with The Kardashians."

Both Khloe and Kim Kardashian testified Tuesday in L.A. During Khloe's testimony, she said wanted to protect her brother from the “outrageous/chaotic/violent behavior" stemming from his relationship with Chyna, adding ... "we were all considering not being a part of such toxicity."

Alleged emails Khloe had sent were also presented, one read, “We are even considering not moving forward with our show if theirs continues, that’s how strongly we feel this is damaging to our family" another email to E!, Khloe mentioned the Rob and Chyna's relationship was potentially hurting the family brand.

BTW, Khloe didn't deny sending the emails, but insisted she was referring to Rob and Chyna's relationship and NOT their show.

Kim's testimony wasn't as exciting, as she said she couldn't remember a lot of the details that were brought up ... but one alleged message she had sent read, "Chyna can never be on her show." Kim clarified that message on the stand, saying her texts are often voice-dictated, and she meant to say "OUR show" ... meaning 'KUWTK.'

Rob has still not taken the stand ... but it's expected he'll testify before all is said and done.

Kylie Jenner Testifies in Court Chyna Attacked Tyga with a Knife

UPDATE

5:07 PM PT -- The hearing has wrapped for the day, but one other thing of interest was when Kylie was asked whether or not she thought Chyna’s love for Rob was real or fake. Kylie responded, "I just felt maybe me dating the father of her child had something to do with it." Kylie was then asked if she thought Chyna was dating Rob out of spite to which she replied, "Maybe."

Kylie Jenner says she expressed her concerns to her brother when he got into a relationship with Blac Chyna ... because Kylie's own ex, Tyga, had warned Chyna was violent.

Kylie took the stand Monday in the Chyna v. Kardashian trial ... and Chyna's lawyer asked her about her relationship with Chyna. Kylie says she wouldn't have ever considered Chyna a close friend, but says Tyga -- who has a kid with Chyna -- once showed her a 6-inch long scar on his arm, claiming it was a knife wound at the hands of Chyna.

Chyna's attorney continued questioning, and Kylie revealed Tyga told her Chyna abused drugs and alcohol -- and they were to blame for the violent knife attack.

Kylie says she brought her concerns about Chyna's behavior to Rob Kardashian, but says Rob told her he was going to continue to date Chyna. Kylie said in court, "I felt it was my duty to express my concerns, but ultimately it was up to him."

This is the second week of testimony in the case ... we've heard from Kris, Chyna and now Kylie. Kim was not in court Monday ... as we reported, she's in D.C. with Pete Davidson.

... OR ELSE
TMZ.com

Last week we also saw Chyna's mom, Tokyo Toni, get banned from the courtroom for bashing the Kardashian family and then she seemingly threatened the judge ... though she later told our camera the threat was aimed at Kris Jenner.

Johnny Depp Amber Accuses Him of Putting Cig Out on Her ... In Courtroom Audio

BURNING DENIAL
UPDATE

1:21 PM PT -- "I'm gonna die! You're causing me so much stress" -- those were Amber's words during yet another of her heated arguments with Johnny. Her legal team played an audio recording of the face-off in court, while Depp was on the stand.

UPDATE
"YOU'RE F**KING KILLING ME"
UPDATE

She was begging him to stop fighting with her, and, instead, have a "normal argument." He agreed they needed some time apart, and asked a driver to take her back to their home in downtown Los Angeles. Johnny said she didn't seem "in any shape to drive."

UPDATE

On the recording, Depp also says, "This isn't love. This is not happiness."

In what is just another chapter in the toxic relationship that was Johnny Depp and Amber Heard -- new audio accuses Johnny of using Amber as his personal ashtray.

The audio was played Monday in court -- day 4 of Depp's testimony. You hear Amber say, "Put your f--king cigarettes out on someone else ... you f***** have consequences for your actions."

While there is no visual evidence in this instance, Amber Heard's lawyer pointed out the fact that Johnny doesn't deny burning her with a cig. In the audio, he simply responds, "shut up, fat*ss".

During the cross-examination Depp denied ever throwing a cig at Heard or using her to put one out ... He said, "I think that was a grossly exaggerated moment by Ms. Heard".

VIOLENT RECORDINGS

This is the latest damning claim to come from the ongoing trial. Amber's lawyer played another audio clip, where Amber says ... "After you beat the sh*t out of me then a week later you show up at my doorstep."

As you know, Depp is suing his ex-wife for $50 million, claiming she lied when she accused him of physically abusing her ... Amber is countersuing for $100 mil for defamation, claiming he coordinated a smear campaign against her.

4/19/22
TAKING THE STAND

Last week, JD kicked off his testimony by saying he'd never hit Amber -- despite her claims  -- and that he was there in court seeking the truth, no matter what.

It has been a complete showdown in court ... with both making explosive accusations against the other, and it looks like it will only continue.

Amber Heard Atty.'s Makeup Claim Refuted by Brand ... Product Didn't Exist Then

UPDATE

8:30 AM PT -- 4/25 -- A friend of Amber's tells us, "Ms. Heard’s lawyer was using an example of the kind of makeup that she used, but it’s a sad day when a makeup company uses that as an opportunity to make light of what victims of domestic violence have to do to hide the results of the abuse they endure.”

Amber Heard's attorney claimed her client would cover up alleged bruising with a makeup kit during her relationship with Johnny Depp -- but the brand itself is saying ... not so fast.

One of the actress's lawyers, Elaine Bredehoft, said during opening statements last week that Amber would often resort to applying makeup during her time with Depp ... to allegedly hide marks she claims were left behind by her boyfriend-turned-husband.

made-up makeup???

Bredehoft told the jury that they'd be hearing testimony and seeing evidence proving Amber would use different makeup products to achieve this -- and actually held up one of the items Heard apparently used back then, including a very specific Milani correcting kit.

The problem ... the kit wasn't actually in circulation during the time period that Bredehoft was describing -- roughly between 2012 and 2016, pre-divorce -- according to Milani itself.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

The company posted a TikTok video from their page that refutes what Heard's attorney was selling ... writing, "You asked us… let the record show that our Correcting Kit launched in 2017!" adding a hyper-cut video digging up the deets on this kit's launch -- Dec. 2017.

In short, there's no way Amber was carrying this kit around in her purse like her lawyer claimed. To be fair -- Bredehoft didn't specifically cite Milani when demonstrating for the jury, so it's plausible she was simply showing off general makeup to make her point.

Still, if she was pointing to the Milani kit, specifically, then yeah ... it doesn't appear her claim holds water based on what Milani itself is saying. It'll be interesting to see if Depp latches on to this point and presses it ... or if it'll go unnoticed.

Depp's team has trotted out witnesses claiming they never saw marks on Amber, even when she "wasn't wearing makeup" -- but her team argues they had no way of knowing whether she had makeup on or not, and that their testimony doesn't prove it one way or another.

We're heading into week 3, and at the moment ... Depp is still being subjected to cross-examination -- much of which thus far has focused on nasty texts he sent about Amber.

There was even a video played that shows JD losing his temper while being recorded in the kitchen -- but he's insisted he never laid a hand on her. His team, meanwhile, played a recording that appears to show Heard admitting to hitting Depp and picking a fight.

She has yet to take the stand to explain her side of things, but will get her chance soon.

Kevin Federline Lawyer Says Britney's Claims Re: Pregnancy Visits Are False ... Makes Threat if She Persists

CUT IT OUT
BACKGRID

Kevin Federline is not too pleased about Britney Spears' latest salvo -- that he wouldn't see her when she was pregnant -- and his lawyer has delivered a not-so-veiled threat, saying her account is false.

Attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, was leaving Craig's Thursday night, when a photog asked about Brit's most recent post, where she says, "... geez my ex-husband wouldn't see me when I flew to New York with a baby inside me and Las Vegas when he was shooting a video!!!"

Kaplan called her out, saying her account "is completely the opposite of what's true, she knows that," adding this warning ... "She should be very careful about pursuing a dialogue that's based on revisionist history."

In case that threat was too oblique, Kaplan got more specific ... "That story about Kevin in Las Vegas and Britney is completely erroneous, and he's not going to stand by and let that story besmirch what he did and his support of her back in the day."

Kaplan says this has nothing to do with jealousy, adding Kevin believes Britney has every right to pursue her relationship with Sam Asghari, but then adds, "But when she starts talking about the way things were when Jayden and Preston were infants that's completely fabricated. Kevin is not going to let that stand by and let that be the portrayal of fact."
