Move over Kylie Jenner ... there's a new love interest in Timothee Chalamet's life!

Timothee has welcomed a fur baby into his life ... a sleepy little critter who has instantly bonded to the "Marty Supreme" star.

The dog seems to be a pit bull terrier mix -- at least according to A.I.

Timothee hasn't revealed a name for the pooch, but you can feel the love by the crying-eye emoji in the caption.

What's unclear ... will this be a case of 'Have Dog, Will Travel'? Timothee is one of the most sought-after actors in the game, so will the dog accompany him on his travels?

Busy year for Weezer bassist Scott Shriner and his wife Jillian Lauren Shriner ... she had that violent incident with cops, and now she's filed for divorce.

Jillian booked it to court Tuesday and filed to divorce Scott after 20 years of marriage ... according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ.

In the docs, Jillian is going with the usual "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split. She says the date of separation is TBD.

An NYU student was randomly attacked Monday in Greenwich Village ... and now a suspect has been arrested for the bizarre butt-slapping on a sidewalk, TMZ has confirmed.

Watch the video ... a man wearing a light-blue scarf follows a 20-year-old woman across a busy street to sneak up behind her and strike her hard on the behind. He follows up by knocking her to the ground with another vicious blow to the head.

This all took place in broad daylight in lower Manhattan as the poor woman was just trying to make her way to a 9:30 AM class.

LiAngelo Ball's third child was born recently ... something his ex, Rashida Nicole, said he didn't get to witness at her request.

Nicole shared the news via Instagram on Tuesday ... explaining in a "transparency post" that she spent the final five months of her pregnancy alone before welcoming Lilo Legacy to the world.

"I chose for my child's father not to be at my delivery," Nicole said. "That decision came after months of emotional pain, hurtful words, and complete absence during the most vulnerable season of my life."

Maxx Morando and Miley Cyrus' love story might be a bit more low-key than those of other celebs, but it's not any less heartfelt ... especially after they got engaged!

We're going to check out what the hitmaker's partner did before their first meeting and see how they ended up sticking it out together.

Maxx works as a musician, and he played drums for The Regrettes from 2015 to 2018.

Burna Boy had his emotions spiked after hearing about the mass shooting that destroyed a 2-year-old's birthday party last weekend in Stockton, California ... and he's stepping up to foot the bill for all 4 of the deceased victims.

The Afrobeats giant says he was taking in the story from "The Breakfast Club" and immediately reached out to Wack 100 ... who, in turn, connected him with Hollywood Unlocked's Jason Lee, who also serves as vice mayor of his hometown of Stockton.

Lee lashed out at the unidentified shooters, telling the Associated Press it's never been considered "gangsta" in the streets to assassinate children, and Burna Boy agreed and offered to pay for all the funerals. It's the very least he can do, considering the lifetime of pain the parents face ahead.

George Clooney's widely known as one of the hardest-working guys in the 'biz ... and he's not going anywhere anytime soon.

The actor recently sat down for an interview with USA Today and talked about the idea of retiring -- he's against it ... he feels his career will last well into the future.

Clooney also spoke about the importance of staying active as a creative person, saying he'll be totally fine taking on roles as an older man.

"Last Comic Standing" finalist Rebecca Corry is not joking about animal rights in Los Angeles ... her nonprofit just sued the city, the cops, and Mayor Karen Bass, among others ... over the unethical treatment of animals in city shelters and on downtown's Skid Row.

All jokes aside ... Corry isn't just a comedian, she's also an animal activist and founder of the Stand Up For Pits Foundation, which dedicates itself to saving the lives of pit bull-type dogs.

In the new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, the foundation is suing Bass, the LAPD, Los Angeles Animal Services, L.A. Animal Services Manager Annette Ramirez, and the City of Los Angeles -- claiming they're all to blame for not following the law in caring for stray animals, and causing widespread animal suffering.

The man the prosecutors say shot two National Guard members last week in Washington D.C., killing one of them, is pleading not guilty to the charges against him ... doing so from his hospital bed.

Lakanwal appeared in court virtually from his hospital bed and pleaded not guilty.

Lindsay Lohan may be revealing the secret to her epic comeback ... sweet treats and electronic cigarettes?!?

The "Freakier Friday" star puffed on a vape and scarfed down some ice cream Monday during a family outing in Miami. It's quite the combo, and it seems it's doing the trick for Lindsay.

Check out the photos ... Lindsay's got a blue vape pen up to her lips in one snap, and in another she's got a small cup of ice cream. Seems Lindsay is a single scoop gal.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's had a rough couple of years, and it looks like things are only getting tougher for the man formerly known as Prince Andrew ... because he likely won't have a payday after leaving the Royal Lodge.

The brother of King Charles was tentatively set to receive upwards of £488,000 -- about $644,000 USD -- upon his early eviction from the property he called home for over two decades, reports CNN.

According to the Crown Estate, cash will only go to Andrew if “no end-of-tenancy repairs or dilapidations are required.”

Andrew paid £1 million for the Royal Lodge in 2003 for a 75-year lease on the property. He's expected to foot the bill for any refurbishing or maintenance of the grounds.

Of course Andrew's not out on the streets ... he'll be moving to Sandringham, located roughly 100 miles north of London, and his accommodation will be funded by King Charles.

Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson -- who also resided at the Royal Lodge -- is going to have to find her own place.

Canadian filmmaker Bryan Michael Stoller, a longtime friend of Michael Jackson's, hasn't seen the upcoming biopic "Michael" ... but he tells TMZ he's got high expectations.

When we ran into Bryan in Studio City Monday, he told us he's only seen the trailer for the movie like everyone else ... but he already has a strong intuition for how his late pal would have accepted the film.

Bryan said having Michael's nephew Jaafar Jackson play him would have been enough to win him over.

Michael and Susan Dell have committed to donating a whopping $6.25 billion to encourage parents of American children under 10 years old to take advantage of so-called "Trump accounts."

The billionaires revealed their big plan Tuesday. Their contribution will reportedly result in an extra $250 being seeded to each child's "Trump account," according to CNBC.

Here's the deal ... there's a new federal program allowing parents to open tax-advantaged investment accounts for kids under 18 -- provided they have Social Security numbers. United States children born anytime from the beginning of 2025 to the end of 2028 will automatically receive a federal grant of $1,000 for the accounts -- if their parents open a "Trump account," beginning July 4, 2026.
