Shaun Weiss has some fans thinking he relapsed on drugs ... but he says folks are reading way too far into a video he posted online.

The "Mighty Ducks" star shared a video Wednesday on Instagram, talking about how blessed he is to be paid to travel around and interact with fans ... but his physical appearance seemed to throw people off.

Shaun, who recently celebrated 4 years of sobriety, is looking kinda thin and he has a red substance smudged between his eyes ... leading some to wonder if he busted his head open, even though his caption says it's "consecrated ash from Sadhguru."

Shaun tells TMZ ... he's still 100% clean and has not relapsed.

He says he's doing great and has never been better, adding ... "If I ever need help I promise I will reach out to people. No going backward."

As for what's on his forehead, Shaun tells us it's from his "spiritual practice." He says it's supposed to "activate my third eye."

Shaun says he's getting into the inner engineering teachings of Sadhguru, a famous Yogi ... telling us, "It has been a game changer in terms of my overall balance and levels of joy."

The video that first sparked relapse concern among fans was on Shaun's page for about 5 hours until we talked to him ... and he's since uploaded a new video where he wipes off the red substance from his face and says he's fine and there's nothing to worry about.

Tiffany Haddish está sufriendo algunas turbulencias en redes sociales, luego de que sus fans se irritaran con algunas bromas que hizo mientras tomaba un vuelo en dirección a Israel, aunque sabemos que ella ha sido muy sincera al respecto.

La actriz y comediante hizo un Instagram en vivo el martes para decirle a los fans que iba a hacer un viaje educativo a tierra santa, antes de lanzar una serie de bromas desenfadadas sobre todo lo que estaba planeando hacer, incluyendo cosas que ver con sus propios ojos.

Tiffany dijo que se dirigía a la zona devastada por la guerra para conocer a su "futuro hombre" mientras bebía un vaso de "zumo de naranja" y aclaraba que no era una mimosa. Esto, a raíz de su segundo arresto por conducir ebria. Cuento corto, algunos sintieron que estaba siendo un poco demasiado irreverente sobre el tema.

Durante el IG Live, Tiffany también cantó una canción que inventó, que decía "En camino a Tel Aviv, luego a Jerusalén. Luego iré al Mar Muerto a pasarlo bien. Voy a divertirme, sí. Va a ser genial. Luego voy a aprender sobre política, ay".

Aunque lo dejó fuera de su jingle, Haddish le dijo a sus seguidores que también iba a ir a Gaza antes de preguntar: "¿No está Gaza en Israel? ¿No está todo en el mismo continente, el mismo trozo de tierra rodeado de agua?".

Desde entonces ha aterrizado en Israel, por cierto, pero no le dijo nada a los fotógrafos que la esperaban en el aeropuerto.

Por supuesto, las disputas sobre esa tierra son un impulso importante detrás de la guerra en la región y los usuarios en las redes no estaban contentos con el bit de Tiffany, y la calificaron de sionista y alegaron que su viaje avalaba el "genocidio palestino".

Es importante tener en cuenta que Tiffany descubrió que tenía ascendencia judía hace apenas unos años y, de acuerdo con una entrevista de 2022 a TIME, asiste regularmente a las cenas de Shabat de los viernes.

También ha sido una ávida defensora de las causas judías a lo largo de los años: recientemente encabezó un espectáculo de recaudación de fondos en favor de esa causa en Laugh Factory y pidió la liberación de los rehenes israelíes tomados por Hamás en octubre. Así que, sí... Tiffany ha sido una apasionada por sus raíces judías y ha estado hablando de querer ir a Israel desde hace mucho tiempo.

Hay una entidad que está muy entusiasmada de que ella esté en camino al país: el gobierno israelí anunció su inminente llegada a través de X y le preguntó si podían "lanzarle un Bat Mitzvah en el Muro de los Lamentos"? No está claro si el estado sabe que ella ya tuvo un Bat Mitzvah en 2019, pero están extendiendo una invitación de todos modos.

Tiffany Haddish's hitting some turbulence on social media -- upsetting fans with jokes she cracked while heading to Israel ... although, we know she's been very sincere about this.

The actress/comedian took to Instagram Live Tuesday to tell fans she was headed to the holy land for an educational trip ... before launching into a series of light-hearted jokes about everything she was planning to do there, including seeing stuff with her own eyes.

TH said she was heading to the war-torn area to meet her "future man" while sipping on a glass of "orange juice" -- adding it wasn't a mimosa in the aftermath of her second DUI arrest. Long story short ... some feel she was being a bit too irreverent about the issue.

During this IG Live session, TH also sang a song she made up, belting out, "On my way to Tel Aviv, then to Jerusalem. Then I’m going to the Dead Sea and goin’ get me some. Gonna have some fun, yeah. It’s gonna be great. Then I’m gonna learn about the politics, ay."

Even though she left it out of her jingle, Haddish told her followers she was going to Gaza as well before asking ... "Isn't Gaza in Israel? Ain't it all on the same continent, the same piece of land surrounded by water?"

She's since landed in Israel, BTW ... but she didn't say anything to photogs waiting for her in the airport.

Of course, disputes over that land are a major impetus behind the region's destructive war ... and people online weren't pleased with Tiffany's bit referring to her as a Zionist and claiming her trip cosigns on the "Palestinian genocide."

FWIW ... Tiffany confirmed she had Jewish ancestry 5 years ago via DNA test and -- according to a 2022 TIME interview -- she regularly attends Friday Shabbat dinners.

She's been an avid supporter of Jewish causes over the years too -- most recently headlining a Jewish fundraiser show at the Laugh Factory and calling for the release of Israeli hostages taken by Hamas back in October. So, yes ... Tiffany has been passionate about her Jewish roots -- and she's been talking about wanting to go to Israel for a long while now.

There is one entity that's stoked she's on her way to the country ... the Israeli government announced her imminent arrival via X and asked if they could "throw you a Bat Mitzvah at the Western Wall?" Unclear if the state knows she already had a Bat Mitzvah in 2019, but they're extending an invite anyway.

Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix celebrated their love for one another on Valentine's Day, but it's not what you might think ... their affection was only on display for the new 'Joker' movie.

Todd Phillips, director of the upcoming "Joker: Folie 'a Deux," posted three photos on Instagram Wednesday, showing Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, better known as the infamous Joker, and Gaga as his criminal sidekick Dr. Harleen Quinzel, AKA Harley Quinn.

In the snaps, Phoenix and Gaga literally seem gaga for each other, while dressed in their costumes and makeup. The photos show them standing face-to-face and nose-to-nose, as well as slow dancing on a rooftop, during which Phoenix dips Gaga with her arm swung around his neck.

Under the photos, Phillips wrote in the caption, "Hoping your day is full of love. 10.4.24." October 4th is the film's scheduled release date.

Last Valentine's Day, Phillips posted an IG photo of Phoenix and Gaga in their characters, apparently in the throes of maniacal sex with their red lipstick smeared across their faces. Phillips has also uploaded several other spooky images of the stars on set.

Lady Gaga y Joaquin Phoenix celebraron su amor en el Día de San Valentín, pero no es lo que se podría pensar, su afecto solo tiene que ver con la nueva película del "Joker".

Todd Phillips, director de la próxima película "Joker: Folie 'a Deux", publicó tres fotos en Instagram el miércoles, que muestran a Phoenix en el personaje de Arthur Fleck, más conocido como el infame Joker, y a Gaga, en el de su compañera criminal la Dra. Harleen Quinzel, alias Harley Quinn.

En las fotos, Phoenix y Gaga parecen literalmente flechados el uno por el otro, mientras lucen vestidos y maquillados en sus icónicos personajes. Ambos están de pie, cara a cara, como si estuvieran bailando un lento en una azotea.

Bajo las fotos, Phillips escribió: "Espero que su día esté lleno de amor. 10.4.24." El 4 de octubre es la fecha prevista para el estreno de la película.

El pasado San Valentín, Phillips publicó una foto de Phoenix y Gaga en sus personajes, aparentemente en medio de una escena de sexo, con el pintalabios rojo esparcido en la cara de ambos. Phillips también ha subido otras curiosas fotos de las estrellas en el set.

Kanye West is firing back at Taylor Swift fans who are trying to block him from a top spot on the music charts ... telling them he's not an enemy, though not exactly a friend either.

Here's the deal ... Swifties are calling on other Swifties to buy and stream Beyoncé's new country music to block Kanye's new music from getting the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100.

Kanye's seen the "SWIFTIE EMERGENCY" on social media and now he's firing back ... and making some interesting counterpoints.

Ye says Swifties shouldn't be coming after him because, in his mind, he's been far more helpful than harmful to Taylor's career. Kanye's views in Wednesday's post jibe with what he's rapped about before ... namely, "I made that b**** famous."

Of course, T-Swift and Kanye have beefed ever since he crashed her 2009 VMA win to say Beyoncé had a better music video ... although, Ye is of the belief the longstanding drama has actually elevated Taylor's profile.

Here, Kanye also points out he was on Taylor's side when Scooter Braun bought her master recordings of which her dad reportedly made $15 million from ... and he says TayTay and Beyoncé are actually big inspirations to all musicians, including himself.

Kanye name-dropping Taylor on his new "Vultures" album seems to have opened up some wounds ... but he says the album is actually super positive and fun.

Selma Blair is apologizing for an Islamophobic comment she made on social media ... and she's promising to do better.

Here's the deal ... Selma went viral last week and started catching tons of flak after commenting on an Instagram post about Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush voting against a measure banning Hamas terrorists from immigrating to the U.S.

In her since-deleted comment, Selma wrote ... "Deport all these terrorist supporting goons. Islam has destroyed Muslim countries and then they come here and destroy minds. They know they are liars. Twisted justifications. May they meet their fate."

Selma took a ton of heat from folks who said she was a raging, Islamophobic bigot.

In an apology shared Tuesday on IG, Selma says ... "I mistakenly and inadvertently conflated Muslims with Radical Islamists and fundamentalists, a terrible err in my words, and resulted in hurting countless people I never meant to, and I deeply regret this."

Selma says she deleted her comment after she realized she was amplifying hate and misinformation ... and says she now understands why she upset the Muslim community.

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are laying it on thick as their romance progresses ... they're packing on a ton of PDA, only here -- it's Ben who can't keep his hands to himself.

The singer just posted some new shots with her music producer boyfriend, and they're completely boo'd up and snuggling together in just about all the pics. One photo, in particular, is eye-popping ... you see Benny boy grabbing a hold of her breast.

This was among the 4 new photos with Benny she shared on Instagram, captioning the post ... "My bes fwend." Of course, it's very clear -- they are much more than just pals.

Besides Benny's boob grab ... there are images of them hugging in a kitchen and being goofy together. On its face, they make a really cute couple -- and seem head over heels.

Selena and Benny clearly aren't shy ... in the last photo, they're kissing in front of a couple friends of theirs, including "The Bear" star Matty Matheson. This is just the latest example of them leaning into their love fest, BTW ... in fact, they're kinda giving Taylor and Travis a run for their money these days!

Bottom line -- they look genuinely happy together ... especially Selena, which is great to see.

The last time we saw these two lovebirds out in public, they were on a date at Disney California Adventure in Anaheim, CA ... holding on to each other tightly as they waited for a ride. She's been bringing Benny along to more events lately ... including award shows.

At first, some believed this relationship was fake as can be -- incredulous, almost -- but nah, they're for realsies ... which is becoming more and more evident with each new photo dump.

Selena Gomez y Benny Blanco se están poniendo muy melosos en la medida que su romance progresa y están compartiendo un montón de fotos acurrucados, solo que en una Ben no pudo mantener sus manos lejos de ella.

La cantante acaba de publicar algunas fotos con su novio y productor musical, donde aparecen completamente acurrucados en casi todas las tomas. Una foto, en particular, es llamativa, pues se ve a Benny agarrando una parte de su pecho.

Esta fue una de las 4 fotos con Benny que Selena compartió en su Instagram con el comentario: "Mi mejor amigo". Desde luego, son mucho más que amigos.

Además de la cuestión del pecho, hay imágenes de ellos abrazados en una cocina y por u cara parece que están haciendo una pareja muy linda y que están muy enamorados.

Selena y Benny claramente no son tímidos. En la última foto, aparecen besándose delante de un par de amigos, incluyendo la estrella de "El Oso" Matty Matheson. ¡Esta es solo la última expresión de su festival del amor, y por cierto, parece que se la están poniendo un poco difícil a Travis y Taylor por estos días!

En palabras simples, se ven realmente felices juntos, especialmente Selena, lo que es genial ver.

La última vez que vimos a estos dos tortolitos en público fue en una cita en Disney California Adventure en Anaheim, donde anduvieron muy abrazados. Ella ha estado llevando a Benny a muchos eventos últimamente, incluyendo los premios.

Al principio, algunos creían que esta relación era falsa, pero se está volviendo más y más evidente con cada nueva foto que comparten.

Larsa Pippen y Marcus Jordan están teniendo problemas. Todas las señales apuntan hacia una ruptura después de que dejaron de seguirse en Instagram el fin de semana.

La pareja eliminó todas las fotos que tenían del otro en sus aplicaciones de redes sociales... al parecer, todo se acabó.

Ninguno de los dos ha hecho comentarios al respecto, aunque Larsa escribió en una encuesta en sus historias de Insta el domingo por la noche: "¿Deberían tus amigos dejar de seguir a tu ex?" Ella también compartió una cita sobre elegir a tu pareja "sabiamente".

Jordan, mientras tanto, parecía pasar el domingo del Super Bowl lejos de Larsa, optando por ver el gran juego con su famoso padre en su lugar.

Larsa y Marcus encendieron los rumores de citas por primera vez en septiembre de 2022, cuando fueron vistos en Miami. En ese momento, los dos afirmaron ser solo amigos.

Pero, con el paso de las semanas, cada vez quedaba más claro que eran algo más que eso, y para el día de San Valentín de 2023, ya se estaban diciendo "te quiero".

En agosto, Marcus realmente dijo que los dos estaban planeando casarse, diciéndole a un paparazzi después de una noche de fiesta que la fecha de matrimonio estaba en camino.

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan appear to be headed toward Splitsville ... all signs are pointing toward a breakup after the two unfollowed each other on Instagram over the weekend.

The couple also removed all pictures of each other on the social media app ... indicating they're caput.

Neither, however, has publicly commented on the situation ... though Larsa did write on a poll in her IG Story on Sunday evening, "Should your friends unfollow your ex?" She also shared a quote about choosing a partner "wisely."

Jordan, meanwhile, seemed to spend Super Bowl Sunday away from Larsa ... opting to watch the big game with his famous father instead.

Larsa and Marcus first ignited dating rumors way back in September 2022 ... when they were seen hobnobbin' around Miami. At the time, the two claimed to be just friends.

But, as the weeks went by, it became more and more clear they were more than that -- and by Valentine's Day 2023, they were swapping "I love you's."

In August, Marcus actually said the two were planning on getting married ... telling a pap after a night out with each other that a wedding date was "in the works."

Unclear what's sparked the apparent trouble in paradise ... but you'll recall, Michael Jordan famously said he didn't approve of their relationship, a comment that Larsa had a tough time swallowing.

Drake's betting big bucks on Kansas City to take home the Lombardi Trophy ... some harrowing news for Chiefs fans who know about his betting track record.

The singer/rapper shared a picture of his betting receipt to Instagram Sunday morning ... showing he put down $1.15 million on the Chiefs to win it all.

Drake also seemed to be making a shrewd political move by the way ... joking he couldn't "bet against the swifties" -- definitely a fanbase you don't want coming for your head!

Unfortunately for Drizzy, this might leave K.C. fans upset with him ... 'cause the dude's betting track record is pretty suspect.

For those who don't know ... Drake bets big like this quite a bit -- and loses a decent amount too. This has led fans to dub Drake cursed, saying essentially any team he bets on is bound to lose.

Sports fans tend to be an overly superstitious bunch ... but there's quite a bit of "evidence" to back up this claim with teams and players like the Kentucky Wildcats, Alabama Crimson Tide and even Conor McGregor losing pivotal matches when Drake's in their corner.

However, Drake's been a bit more accurate recently ... he hit two bets during last year's NBA finals and won just over $3.5 million when the Chiefs took home the title last year -- so maybe he's actually good luck for K.C.!

Ben Affleck's not taking questions about the alleged kiss he shared with Britney Spears ... with even the mention of the moment putting him in a seemingly sour mood.

The actor was walking down the street in Santa Monica Friday when a photog fired a question at him in Spanish ... a language in which Ben's pretty much fluent, and it sure seems like he fully understood this question.

Check out the vid ... Ben's face breaks into a big grin when he hears the pap greet him in Spanish -- possibly excited at breaking out his bilingual skills -- but then he quickly gets, "Is it true what Britney Spears said about you that you and she shared a kiss??"

Once the full question is out, Ben's expression totally changes ... smile gone and exasperatedly shaking his head as he walks swiftly to his car and drives off.

BA's clearly not happy about having this question directed at him ... all triggered by one of Britney's social media posts.

As we previously reported ... BS shared a throwback snap of herself with Ben and legendary songwriter Diane Warren, and claimed she made out with Ben on the same night the photo was taken back in 1999.

She also implied a lot more happened before they locked lips, but didn't share exactly what she meant by that with fans.

The comment raised a lot of eyebrows ... after all, Britney just released her memoir packed full of bombshell revelations -- so it's odd she seemed to have left this out. She's claiming she completely forgot about it which seems unlikely, to say the least.

She later took down the post -- an added layer of drama -- but it appears that move isn't quelling interest in what is, at this point, just a rumor she's created.

Bobbi Althoff getting divorced is now being picked apart by fans who think Drake might've had something to do with it -- but we got the real story ... and it's far from that at all.

Here's the deal ... Bobbi's now-estranged husband, Cory, cited July 4, '23 as the day he and BA separated -- and the reason folks are hyper-focusing on this is because it just so happens to be around the time she aired her viral interview with Drake, where they're both in bed.

Of course, the speculation has been peaking -- with many suggesting Bobbi and Drake were, perhaps, closer than we saw ... and that they maybe had something going on BTS.

Welp, sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Drake was actually NOT a big fan of Bobbi toward the end of summer last year -- and that they had a major falling out post-interview, although they were friendly in the immediate aftermath.

Long story short ... we're told Drake and Bobbi continued texting after they had their famous lay-down chat -- and our sources say Drizzy even invited Bobbi to his L.A. concert on Aug. 12 ... which she attended. Unfortunately for her, only general admission was offered.

Our sources tell us Bobbi was genuinely angry about this -- apparently feeling she deserved to be in the VIP area with Drake's other celeb friends -- and she made her indignation known in a since-deleted video where she's standing around on the arena floor pouting about.

Not long after that went up ... Bobbi took the clip down, and within the same weekend -- she also took down the original nearly hour-long interview ... no explanation for either.

At the time, people were trying to figure out if they'd had a falling out -- and as it turns out, they absolutely did. Our sources tell us that when Bobbi was at the show ... her little video was reflecting how she actually felt -- namely, furious she'd ended up in GA.

We're told Bobbi blew Drake up about it that same night -- while he was onstage -- and that she even tried going backstage at one point ... but got rebuffed by security.

Not long after this ... we're told Drake's camp hit her team to demand she take down both the clip and the interview ... which she then did. At that point, we're told their friendship fizzled.

Now, in terms of whether they've patched things up since -- something Bobbi herself recently implied on Keke Palmer's podcast ... we're told they haven't. Bobbi told Keke they'd spoken in recent weeks ... but our sources tell us they have not. We're told they don't talk anymore.

On the issue of why Cory actually filed to divorce Bobbi -- it's a very simple explanation ... our sources tell us her skyrocketing fame and his desire to remain a normie was the main catalyst, and that it had nothing to do with allegations of cheating. Although, we're sure he probably didn't appreciate how cozy she was acting with Champagne Papi on tape.

El divorcio de Bobbi Althoff está siendo observado bien de cerca por los fans que piensan que Drake podría haber tenido algo que ver con eso, pero tenemos la verdadera historia y está lejos de ser así.

Así es la cosa, Bobbi, el ex marido de Cory, citó el 4 de julio del 2023 como el día en que él y Bobbi se separaron, y la razón por la gente está conmocionada, es porque da la casualidad de que es muy cerca del momento en que salió al aire su entrevista viral con Drake, donde ambos están en la cama.

Por supuesto, la especulación ha llegado a su punto máximo, con muchos sugiriendo que Bobbi y Drake eran, tal vez, más cercanos de lo que pudimos ver, y que tal vez tenían algo pasando a escondidas.

Sin embargo, fuentes directas nos informan que Drake no era un gran fan de Bobbi hacia el final del verano del año pasado y tuvieron una caída importante después de la entrevista, a pesar de que se hicieron amigos inmediatamente después.

Nos dicen que Drake y Bobbi continuaron enviando mensajes de texto después de que tuvieron su famosa charla y nuestras fuentes dicen que Drake incluso invitó a Bobbi a su concierto de Los Ángeles el 12 de agosto... al que asistió. Por desgracia para ella, solo obtuvo la entrada general.

Nuestras fuentes nos dicen que Bobbi estaba realmente enfadada por esto, aparentemente sintiendo que merecía estar en la zona VIP con otros amigos famosos de Drake, y ella hizo saber su indignación en un video ya borrado donde ella está de pie en el suelo de la arena haciendo pucheros.

No mucho después de que lo subió, Bobbi quitó el clip, y en el mismo fin de semana también quitó la entrevista original de casi una hora de duración sin explicación aparente.

En ese momento, la gente estaba tratando de averiguar si habían tenido una pelea y resulta que así fue. Nuestras fuentes nos dicen que cuando Bobbi estaba en el show, su pequeño video estaba reflejando cómo se sentía en realidad, es decir, furiosa de terminar en la galería.

Nos dicen Bobbi no se comportó de la mejor manera esa noche, incluso trató de ir detrás del escenario en un momento, pero la seguridad la detuvo.

No mucho después de esto, nos dicen que el campamento de Drake golpeó a su equipo para exigir que retire tanto el clip y como la entrevista, y así fue como pasó. En ese momento su amistad se esfumó.

Ahora, respecto a si han arreglado las cosas desde entonces, algo que Bobbi dio a entender recientemente en el pódcast de Keke Palmer... nos informan que no lo han hecho. Bobbi le dijo a Keke que habían hablado las últimas semanas, pero nuestras fuentes nos dicen que no lo han hecho. Nos dicen que no hablan más

Sobre la cuestión de por qué Cory realmente le pidió el divorcio a Bobbi, muy simple, nuestras fuentes nos dicen que su fama y su deseo de seguir siendo un normie fue el principal catalizador y que no tenía nada que ver con las acusaciones de engaño. Aunque estamos seguros de que probablemente no apreciaba cómo acogedor que estaba actuando con Champagne Papi en la cinta.

Britney Spears just posted a throwback photo of herself and Ben Affleck from the summer of 1999 -- a time during which she claims they locked lips, which is ... random as hell.

The pop star threw up a pic of her, Ben and Diane Warren hanging out at a party -- one reported to have taken place in either June or July of '99 to celebrate her album '...Baby One More Time,' which came out that January.

No harm, no foul -- this photo of them has been circulating for years -- but Brit's new description of what she claims happened that night is interesting ... namely, that they kissed.

She writes, "Cool pic of me and Ben Affleck and Diane Warren years ago!!! He’s such an amazing actor. Did I fail to mention I made out with Ben that night … I honestly forgot ... damn that’s crazy !!!"

Britney continued ... "Wish I could tell you guys the story that happened before that !!! Oh dear, I’m just being a gossip girl. Psss I actually forgot!" She has since deleted the post.

Unclear why she took it down so quickly, but it raises eyebrows for obvious reasons. For one ... a love connection between herself and Ben has never been claimed by either one of them until now, and it's truly coming out of nowhere -- with no evidence to back it up either.

Fact is ... Britney spilled her guts in her memoir last year on everything from an abortion she says she had, to alleged infidelity and lots of other stuff about Justin Timberlake.

If this did in fact go down as she suggests ... wouldn't she have put it in the book???
