Selena Gomez Shows Off Kidney Transplant Scar ... 'I Feel Confident'

Selena Gomez is not hiding her scars anymore ... she's showing 'em off and is damn proud.

The singer revealed Thursday ... ever since she got her kidney transplant she's made every attempt to hide the scar it left behind ... but no more. Selena posted a picture on Instagram showing off the scar ... calling it body empowerment.

She captioned the photo, "When I got my kidney transplant, I remember it being very difficult at first showing my scar. I didn’t want it to be in photos, so I wore things that would cover it up. Now, more than ever, I feel confident in who I am and what I went through."

Selena also tagged a swimsuit company promoting inclusivity and added, "All bodies are beautiful."

As we reported ... Selena underwent a kidney transplant in the summer of 2017. She was on the verge of death ... before her BFF Francia Raisa stepped in to save her. Later that year, Selena said she couldn't ask anyone to sacrifice a kidney, but Francia wasn't having it ... she stepped up and volunteered.

Selena told NBC's "Today" that her kidneys "were just done." The singer sounded like she was ready to give up. She also got emotional talking about how Francia literally saved her life.

Taraji P. Henson ¡Ay, Caramba! ... Turning 50 in Cabo Does the Body Good

Hidden figures? Please. Taraji P. Henson's showing 'em off for the world to enjoy ... just one way to celebrate a milestone birthday.

The Oscar-nominated actress celebrated her 50th birthday with a trip to Cabo San Lucas ... beaming with tons of pride showing off her bikini bod. It's pretty clear Taraji's been hitting the gym. That much is clear based on her Instagram captions ... she hashtagged some of them like this -- #BAWDY, #hardasswork and #ImAddictedtotheworkout. Gains, baby.

Check out the pics ... it's easy to see why Taraji's more than happy to saunter in a tiny bikini while soaking up the sun south of the border. Gotta say ... 50 never looked so good. The "What Men Want" (you can say that again) star actually turned 50 on September 11 but is keeping the celebration going with a bunch of her girls ... coronavirus be dammed.

But, then again ... celebrating the big 5-0's one helluva checkpoint in life, so let the woman live!!!

'90 DAY FIANCE' STAR Larissa Lima It Pays Big to Look Like Kylie Jenner!!!

"90 Day Fiance" star Larissa Lima spent a fortune to look like Kylie Jenner ... but her expensive makeover is already paying huge dividends.

Larissa showed off her new look, inspired by Kylie, last week with a one-hour lingerie show on the webcam app, CamSoda ... and we've learned those 60 little minutes hauled in more than $100,000 for the site.

Our sources tell us Larissa's show hit the six-figure mark thanks to people paying to view the sultry show and tipping ... and we're told she had 10 times the number of viewers CamSoda usually sees for the biggest XXX stars and Instagram hotties who host.

It's pretty impressive ... we're told Larissa's show had so much interest, it now ranks in the Top 5 all-time on CamSoda. Hat tip to Kylie!

As we first told you ... Larissa dropped a cool $72,000 for a bunch of cosmetic surgeries, going under the knife with Dr. Lane Smith in Sin City to try and come out looking like Kylie.

Larissa got a boob job, liposuction on her abs and waist and a fat transfer to her bottom ... plus botox, fillers and laser facials. The whole shebang, ya might say.

The people have spoken ... and it definitely pays to be a Kylie lookalike.

Tekashi6ix9ine Drops First Album Since Prison Release ... All About 'Tattletales'

Tekashi 6ix9ine dropped first album since being released from prison, and he's definitely leaning into the whole snitch thing.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

The album's called "TattleTales," and there's a special cameo in the music video, "TUTU," by none other than Blac Chyna. BC makes her presence known with pink boots and sprinkles.

The album has big stars, including Nicki Minaj, Smilez and Akon.

As we reported, Tekashi is a free man, with strings attached. He completed home confinement last month, but he has to keep his nose clean for 5 years while he's on probation.

Tekashi faced 47 years in prison but copped a deal, agreeing to testify against his former gang members. He was sentenced to 24 months back in December and had already served 13. He was released early to home confinement because of coronavirus.

Lots of folks thought Tekashi was done in the music biz because it was just too dangerous for him. Clearly, Tekashi begs to differ.

Cristiano Ronaldo's GF SLAAAAAAAYS At Venice Film Festival

Cristiano Ronaldo's longtime GF Georgina Rodriguez turned the Venice Film Festival into her very own fashion show on Thursday ... and yeah, the woman SLAAAAAAAYED.

Yes, that's 7 As ... and they're all necessary.

The soccer superstar's gorgeous lady showed up for the showings of "The Human Voice" and "Quo Vadis, Aida?" at the big event in Italy ... decked out in a light pink gown that was sure to turn heads.

The best part?? SAFETY!!

Georgina even had a matching mask to go with her wardrobe -- after all, the coronavirus is still very much a thing, you know.

Rodriguez and Ronaldo have been living it up together in 2020 ... from a pants-optional quarantine to sailing around on an expensive yacht with their incredibly attractive friends while we all sit back and watch jealously from afar.

Oh, and don't forget the thong'd out underwater video she made the other day.

Georgina is KILLLING!!!

Adele Rocks Bikini Top ... Hellooo, Lovely!!!

Now here's a side of Adele we don't get to see that often ... and boy, it's awesome!

The singer just posted a photo of herself in a Jamaican flag-themed bikini top with her hair curled up in Bantu knots and feathers popping out from the back of her head. She's also got a pair of yoga pants on ... the whole outfit is kinda wacky, but it fits the event she shouted out.

Adele posted the pic -- which appears to have been shot last year -- as a tribute to a canceled event in the U.K. this year ... the annual Notting Hill Carnival, which brings out folks dressed just like this, if not even more eccentric.

She writes, "Happy what would be Notting Hill Carnival my beloved London 🇬🇧🇯🇲." Based on that, it seems she went out there in 2019 with this getup, seeing how it ain't going down this year on account of the pandemic. Still, Adele sends her love to the would-be partygoers.

Adele looks absolutely INCREDIBLE, once again showing how she transformed herself over the past year or so. First, it was a show-stopping appearance at Drake's party, then a showcase on the beach, a 32nd birthday looking spectacular ... and then the Beyonce twinning.

Adele's on fire lately ... and she hasn't even put out a new album!!!

Bella Thorne To Normie OnlyFans Folks My Bad, I'll Try to Fix This Screw-Up!!!

Bella Thorne realizes she screwed over a bunch of ordinary OnlyFans users who now can't make as much money after her no-nudes fake-out ... but she's promising to fix it ASAP.

The one-time Disney star turned Jack-Of-All-Trades entertainer just posted a lengthy apology for the uproar she stirred up in the online sex worker community last week ... when she appeared to have milked OnlyFans for every penny it's worth, thus affecting everyone else.

She writes, "PT1 Remove the stigma behind sex, sex work, and the negativity that surrounds the word SEX itself by bringing a mainstream face to it that’s what I was trying to do, to help bring more faces to the site to create more revenue for content creators on the site."

Bella went on to explain that she has tried a few different times in her career to normalize sex and sex work, but notes that it's often blown up in her face ... like it did this time.

She continues, "...I am a mainstream face and when you have a voice, a platform, you try to use you in helping others and advocate for something bigger than yourself. Again in this process I hurt you and for that I’m truly sorry." There's more -- BT wants a solution.

Bella says she's actually going to be meeting with some OnlyFans honchos soon to get to the bottom of their new changes that drastically limit what people can make, how soon they can get paid ... which immediately came on the heels of Bella's $1 million-plus publicity stunt. OnlyFans says their changes aren't the result of any one person (aka Bella), but most people are calling BS on that, theorizing they're strapped in having to pay her.

Welp, whatever the truth is ... hopefully, Bella can get a legit answer from these folks and force them to do a U-turn. Maybe she should even forfeit the money they owe? That'd probably go a long way for the normie nude posters out there.

Kim Kardashian Slithers & Sizzles in Malibu Pics!!!

Kim Kardashian's definitely thirsty ... she straight-up sipped tea through a new smoking hot photo shoot. Good work if you can get it!

Kim's quest to remind everyone -- ahem, Kanye West -- she's still one of the baddest chicks on the planet continued after hitting up Malibu on Wednesday ... showing off her bod in this awesome snake-print, string bikini.

She showed up to the 'Bu after shooting a recent episode of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" ... setting herself down in the hot sand with an iced tea and that always picturesque SoCal backdrop.

As we reported ... Kim went back to basics recently in Cabo, showing off her KKW Beauty brand that certainly got everyone's attention. And we ain't talking about the hot pink color.

Cristiano Ronaldo's GF Underwater Thongin' During Insane Yacht Vacay

Georgina Rodriguez wants everyone to know ... her boyfriend ain't the only one with a ridiculous body!!!

Check out Cristiano Ronaldo's longtime lady friend swimming around in the Mediterranean in a tiny, white thong bikini and a pair of flippers.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

The insanely fit couple has been sailing around on their fancy, new yacht along the French Riviera ... hanging out with their insanely ripped pals -- living the good life.

Earlier this month, Ronaldo's Juventus squad won their 9th straight Series A -- but didn't win the Champions League, after being knocked out by Manchester City in the quarter-final match.

So, how do you blow off some of that steam? BOAT VACATION!

Of course, 35-year-old Ronaldo and 26-year-old Georgina have been together for years -- and she gave birth to their daughter, Alana, back in 2017.

There have long been rumors about the two being secretly engaged -- or even secretly married -- but the couple has denied that several times over the years.

In the meantime, enjoy the swim!

Gregg Sulkin Flexing His Makeshift Gym ... Where the Grass is Greener

Gregg Sulkin's looking pretty hulkin' these days ... and it helps his gym's wherever he parks his shredded bod.

Gregg hit up a local park in L.A. Monday for a socially-distanced workout. The actor brought the essentials with him ... his face mask and these incredible Bowflex adjustable dumbbells that have no doubt helped his arms get absolutely JACKED.

Gregg spent about an hour working out ... busting out some bicep curls, bodyweight squats and some push-ups. Unlike some people, dude's been making the best out of a terrible situation here, working out in makeshift gyms ... and the park usually seems to be his place of choice.

Remember ... back in May, we saw Gregg busting out another COVID-style workout with a kettlebell and resistance bands. There was also video that showed him and his entire gym essentials. It's pretty tough to get any of those items right now, 'cause they seem to be sold out everywhere. But, that's clearly not a problem for Gregg.

Kim K Back to Basics ... Classic Beach Bikini Shoot

Kim Kardashian seems to be telegraphing a clear message amid her recent marriage struggles -- she's still a classic baddie, and maybe some folks need some reminding.

KKW was down in Cabo this weekend for a beach bikini photo shoot for her KKW Beauty brand that put Kim in an environment (and outfit) we love to see. It's a skimpy pink 2-piece -- and the photogs running things had a lot of creative poses for their muse to get into. The more the merrier!

Check out the pics ... ya got Kim walking along the shore, Kim emerging from a pool (backside shot, of course), Kim looking at her phone, Kim eating ice cream ... and Kim doing a cartwheel. That last one's the most interesting -- great angle we don't often see.

We're told Kim came south of the border by herself, sans Kanye and the kids. We're told it was a business trip/photo shoot and there's nothing like a stroll on the beach to help clear her head of all the family drama lately.

Sofia Richie You Sure About This, Scott??? Looking Hot After Split

Sofia Richie is saying SUP after her split from Scott Disick ... going stand up paddleboarding, and looking hot enough to make her ex-BF think twice!!

Sofia slipped into a tight wet suit Friday that was flattering to say the least ... as she kicked off the weekend with a little SUP off the coast of Malibu with friends.

Not a bad way to get over a breakup. Her skills on the board might seem a little suspect, but no guy would dare complain?

Normally this is a phenomenon we call post-breakup hotness, but let's be real ... Sofia's hotness never changed. Kudos to the L.A. heatwave, since it forced her to pass on one of those bulky full-body wetsuits. It's working for her!!!

Lord Disick might be kicking himself after seeing these pics -- a not-so-subtle reminder of what he's missing.

TMZ broke the story ... Scott and Sofia have officially broken up after trying, but failing to work things out.

Our sources say Scott's adamant things are donezo with Sofia and don't see them getting back together.

Ahh, the best-laid plans ...

'Bachelorette' Tayshia Adams Back to Work!!! Showing Off Bikini Bod

Tayshia Adams is back shooting a new, very unique, season of "The Bachelorette" and it's a good bet her suitors will be very pleased with her wardrobe.

The fan-favorite wore the hell out of a bikini Thursday in Palm Springs on her first day back as the new 'Bachelorette.' Tayshia looked pretty relaxed ... as most people tend to be in the desert resort city.

It's unclear how many dudes showed up for this first day of taping ... but it's safe to say one guy wasn't there -- John Paul Jones. 'Bach' fans will recall these two love birds had a huge spark while filming 'Bachelor in Paradise' and things looked promising when the cameras disappeared.

But, alas, that spark fizzled even though millions of fans were definitely rooting for them. JPJ's already said he'll be watching Tayshia's season ... so that'll be interesting.

As we reported, Tayshia replaced Clare Crawley mid-season. Clare cut things short after finding her perfect man early in her season which forced producers to switch things up.

Then again, Bach Nation thought Tayshia found her perfect man in JPJ ... so who knows.

MLB Star Alex Bregman Fiancee Gunning For SI Swimsuit Gig ... 'Dream' Job!!!

LET'S DO THIS!

Kate Upton, Olivia Culpo ... and now Reagan Howard?!

Alex Bregman's fiancee is hoping to follow in the footsteps of legendary Sports Illustrated Swimsuit models ... announcing Monday she's officially gunning to be in the 2021 SI Swim mag!

Howard just entered the publication's annual search for undiscovered models ... saying she's been "dreaming" of being in the mag ever since she saw Bar Refaeli on a cover years ago.

"I started modeling when I was about 17 years old and faced a ton of rejection for the size of my body," said Howard, who got engaged to the Houston Astros' star 3rd baseman back in January.

"I would love to be on SI because I believe in the brand and I believe in what it represents," Howard added. "And, you guys empower women from all over the place to be as they are and to be multi-dimensional. Which I absolutely love."

Howard went on to say that she's personally inspired by Camille Kostek ... who gained SI Swim fame after being discovered in the mag's 2018 open casting call.

"Here’s to breaking molds and being you," Howard said, "no matter how many different things that may be."

Of course, another famous WAG -- Matt Kalil's wife, Haley Kalil -- also got her SI Swim breakthrough in the brand's 2019 open audition as well.

Could Howard be next? Winners won't be announced for months ... but the resume sure looks bulletproof to us!

JUMP AROUND
@paigevanzant / Twitter

Fun Fact -- did you know Paige VanZant can execute a perfect toe touch??

The MMA superstar is out to prove any doubters wrong ... by throwing on a tiny hot pink bikini and posting a slow-mo vid as evidence on Monday!!

"Suns out buns out ☀️✌🏼🌴" Paige captioned her video ... which, might we add, is a very factual statement.

PVZ and her Bellator hubby, Austin Vanderford, have been spotted training at the famous American Top Team MMA gym in Florida this past week ... but made sure to get in some solid fun at the pool during their time off.

Of course, ATT houses some of the biggest names in MMA -- from Amanda Nunes to Joanna Jedrzejczyk ... and VanZant basically confirmed the move in an Instagram post.

"Always go with the choice that scares you the most, because that’s the one that’s going to help you grow. #NextChapter #Florida," PVZ captioned the pic.

Back to the toe touch -- PVZ was a cheerleader in HS and went on to prove she still had moves while appearing on "Dancing With The Stars" back in 2016.

By the way, video credit to Austin ... well done, sir.
