Paul Walker could have banked up to $80 million off his acting had his life not been cut short.

Universal executives had already committed to 3 more 'Fast and Furious' films while Paul and company were filming the seventh installment ... this according to legal docs in the wrongful death case filed by Paul's 17-year-old daughter Meadow.

Meadow claims the additional movies -- plus other projects -- would have made his bank account swell by anywhere between $30 and $80 million.

Paul's earning prospects was a big factor in the settlement Meadow struck with the estate of the driver, Roger Rodas. The estate -- most likely the insurance co. -- paid her $10.1 million.

According to the docs ... Meadow and her mom got court permission to use $2 million from the settlement to buy a new house.

Sorry, One Direction fans ... we're shutting down your #Babygate fake baby conspiracy once and for all.

We got Louis Tomlinson out to lunch Thursday in Calabasas, and the pics prove his 2-and-a-half month old son Freddie is a living, breathing little tyke -- and not just a prop.

This has become a thing -- 1D fans are flooding social media with various #babygate conspiracy theories as to why the baby can't be real. They think Louis and his team are photoshopping images and using dolls to fake out the public.

So, here's Exhibit A -- watch and LISTEN to baby Freddie crying out. THIS is a real baby.

Case closed.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's third oldest son is growing into his father's famously ripped mold.

Joseph Baena was flexing and grinning after buying groceries in Malibu. He's a long way from his hometown of Bakersfield, but the beach life clearly fits him well.

Blac Chyna is privately calling BS on Tyga for pretending to be supportive of her engagement to Rob Kardashian ... we're told her ex is really trying to destroy her life.

Sources directly connected to Chyna tell TMZ, Tyga has gone to great lengths to drive a wedge between their son, King, and her. We're told he's filed legal docs trying to wrestle custody from her and will not back down.

Our sources say Tyga will not even speak to Chyna ... their only direct contact is email. We're told he changed his cell and won't give her the new number. Most of the parenting decisions are made with their nanny as the go-between.

Madonna flew into London Wednesday, presumably to follow judge's orders and hash out a custody deal with ex-hubby Guy Ritchie.

A judge ordered Madge and Guy -- who have been at war for years over how to raise Rocco -- to come up with a plan on how they will handle custody of the 15-year-old, who now lives with Guy in London.

The judge laid down the law last month, urging them to call a truce for the benefit of the boy. And the judge made it clear ... if they don't come up with a plan, he will.

Harper Beckham is only 4 but already has her mom's schtick down to a T.

Victoria Beckham's adorable mini-me was tended to hand and foot at Olive & June in Beverly Hills. Gotta hand it to the kid for color coordinating her nails to her outfit.

More proof no one does divorce as well as Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin -- she kicked it backstage at his concert in Peru ... all to celebrate their son's 10th birthday together.

Gwyneth posted video of Chris surprising Moses by bringing him onstage during a Coldplay concert in Lima on Tuesday night. She captioned the vid, "When your dad wishes you an early 10th birthday at work...#coldplaylima"

TMZ broke the story ... the exes just finalized their divorce settlement, and it's the most civil uncoupling ever.

Chris also invited Apple and some friends onstage as the crowd sang "Feliz Cumpleanos" for Moses. Meanwhile, Gwyneth "consciously" shunned the spotlight.

We now know who got all of Magic Johnson's natural athletic talent ... his son's pecs ... 'cause TMZ Sports has pics of MJ's kid on the beach with him ... and his physique is Hall of Fame.

Magic Johnson and the whole fam bam were on vacay down in Hawaii earlier this week when his 35-year-old son, Andre, decided to steal the show ... by showing off.

Check out the pic ... Magic is looking good for 56 ... and Andre is looking good for a nickel corner in the NFL.

Andre normally keeps a low profile but after these beach pics, we're guessing all of social media will be on bae watch.

Madonna's fighting a new battle over her children -- she wants them to have the right to live in her ritzy NYC condo while she's on the road.

Madge is suing the owners of her apartment building over a new rule put in place years after she signed the lease. Madonna says when she originally signed, the deal was the apartment could be used by her, her spouse, her children, other relatives and even domestic employees.

But in April 2014 the owner amended the lease to say the children could only live in the home while she, a spouse or partner was there as well. The rule applies to everyone in the building, not just Madonna.

Kendall Jenner and Hailey Baldwin came to the rescue of a little kid who got crushed by the crowd that gathered to get a peek at the women shopping.

Unclear if the kid was a fan, or just an innocent bystander -- but he totally got flattened as Kendall and Hailey made their way through the crowd outside Citipups Chelsea. The video's insane and the kid had to be terrified.

A radio DJ is suing William Shatner for $170 million, claiming the actor is his father and has been denying it for years.

Peter Sloan, 59, says Shatner admitted he was his dad back in 1984 on the set of "T.J. Hooker." Sloan tells TMZ he believes his biological mother and Shatner had a fling while they were both acting on Broadway.

In his suit, Sloan says Shatner did a complete 180 later ... hanging up on him when he called the actor. He claims a rep contacted him to say Shatner denied paternity and refused to take a DNA test.

Sloan says the rep also advised him to keep the matter quiet since it could be "horrendous" for Shatner's career. Instead, he changed his name to Peter Shatner and began using it for his radio show, website and several other social media handles.

Sloan says he requested another paternity test in 2011 but got denied because, as Shatner's lawyers put it ... he's "an incredibly busy, 80-year-old man, and is not interested in spending time discussing this issue with you."

Good news for rapper Mike Stud ... Jose Canseco DIDN'T bust a cap in his ass ... 'cause the two men hung out together in L.A. and there was ZERO gunplay (as far as we can tell).

So, baby gymnastics is apparently a thing ... so says U.S. Olympic legend Dominique Dawes who says some parents start training their kids at 6 MONTHS OLD!!

The '96 gold medal winner was out in D.C. with her husband Jeff Thompson and their 2 kids (6 months and 2 years) when we jokingly asked if she had started THEIR Olympic training yet.

That's when Dawes told us some people actually DO get the Olympic ball rolling super early -- but don't worry ... she's not one of those parents.

Hugh Jackman played lifeguard Saturday after his 15-year-old son got stuck in a riptide in Australia.

Jackman was at Bondi Beach in Sydney when reports say the currents suddenly changed, causing a strong riptide in the water. His son, Oscar, got trapped in the waves and you can see from the video, dad had to step in and help.

Lucky for Hugh, there were plenty of other people around, including lifeguards, who assisted with the rescue and got Oscar to shore.

A rep for the actor told ABC News, "Hugh and Oscar are completely fine. It looks more dramatic than it was."

Well, it finally happened ...

Shaq's son says he's 100% confident he can BEAT his old man on the court -- saying the NBA legend is just too old and slow to keep up!!

For the record, Shareef O'Neal is a stud in his own right -- becoming one of the top high school players in the country. And when we saw him out in L.A. Thursday, Reef told us he's VERY confident in his skills.

"Now that I'm 6'9", it's way easier for me to compete against him," Shareef said ... "He's slow. He can't guard me! I'm too quick for him!"

Of course, it's all love -- but Shaq ... ANSWER THE CHALLENGE!!! WE GOTTA SEE THIS PLAY OUT ON THE COURT!!!

Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez looked relaxed taking the latest Hollywood trend for a test drive ... vacationing with the kids and the soon-to-be ex.

The brood hit the beach in Puerto Vallarta with their 2-year-old son Maceo and Halle's 8-year-old daughter Nahla.

Olivier and Halle even got a little playful while lounging around but we're told they're definitely going through with a divorce ... the trip was strictly for the kids.
