Money

Mark Davis is apparently interested in exhausting every option to add to his massive fortune ... 'cause the Raiders owner was just seen hoping to score some cash on a slot machine at an airport in Vegas!!

According to one social media user, the billionaire got in the gambling sesh before the Raiders took on the Packers on "Monday Night Football."

His game of choice ... "Wheel of Fortune" -- but based on his reaction to the flashing lights in front of him, it doesn't seem like he was finding a whole lot of wealth.

But, if that was the case, Davis can certainly afford to take the hit ... after all, the 68-year-old is reportedly worth $2.3 BILLION!!!

It seems the slot machine play was all interrupted regardless when a lady friend arrived. She appeared to be the same person Davis sat with during the MNF game at Allegiant Stadium.

Folks who wanna be Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce can play make-believe on Halloween -- and it's a lock that lots of people will do just that, much to the joy of one costume shop raking in the dough.

A rep for 3 Wishes, an online Halloween retailer, tells TMZ ... their Taylor and Travis-inspired getups this year are far and away the most popular costumes, as people snap 'em up in droves. So much so, they're completely sold out!

Customers have been able to double-dip a bit, up to this point -- 3 Wishes has had 2 different TS costume options ... a solo "Pop Star" one and a separate item that actually paired the pop star costume with a whole other football player outfit. Naturally, that's in the style of the Chiefs tight end ... right down to his jersey number.

Those were selling for $27.95 and $119.95, respectively, but now -- 3 Wishes says its inventory's been ransacked by fans wanting to resemble the new showbiz "it" couple. They had 500 of the solo TS costumes, and 300 of the duo costumes.

We're told the Taylor/Travis duo costume is their second-fastest-selling product in the company's history -- with their 'Tiger King' costume from 2020 still reigning supreme. 3 Wishes says they're out of stock right now, but will re-up on the 16th.

La gente que quiere ser Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce pueden jugar a serlo en Halloween, y hay una tienda que está muy feliz con la tendencia.

Un representante de 3 Wishes  —un minorista de Halloween en línea— le dice a TMZ que sus disfraces inspirados en Taylor y Travis de este año son, con mucho, sus disfraces más populares y que la gente está acudiendo a comprarlos en masa, ¡tanto es así que están completamente agotados!

Curiosamente, sus clientes han sido capaces de sacarle provecho a la situación. Verás, 3 Wishes ha tenido dos opciones diferentes de disfraces de Taylor: una que es ella sola como  "Pop Star" y otra que viene con un artículo extra que es el traje de jugador de fútbol americano (obviamente muy del estilo del ala cerrada de los Chiefs, hasta tiene su número de camiseta).

Se vendían por 27,95 y 119,95 dólares, respectivamente, pero ahora, 3 Wishes dice que su inventario ha sido saqueado por los fans que quieren parecerse a la nueva pareja de Hollywood. Tenían 500 de los trajes de TayTay y 300 de los trajes del dúo, usted puede hacer el cálculo.

Nos han dicho que el disfraz del dúo Taylor/Travis es el segundo producto que más rápido se ha vendido en la historia de la empresa, mientras que el disfraz de "Rey Tigre" de 2020 sigue siendo el más vendido. 3 Wishes nos informa de que se han agotado las existencias en este momento, pero que volverán a ponerse a la venta el día 16.

Leida Margaretha, known from her time on "90 Day Fiancé," has been arrested ... after allegedly using her place of work to steal thousands of dollars.

According to cops in Portage, Wisconsin, they were notified last week by the owners of Loggerhead Deco -- a glass bottle decorating company -- that Margaretha made "fraudulent payments and withdraws to several outside business accounts and customers" using the company's account info.

Cops say some victims have reported several thousands of dollars missing from their accounts ... and Margaretha is now facing charges of Theft from a Business Setting, Forgery, and Wire Fraud Against a Financial Institution.

Police say she may be hit with additional charges as the investigation continues.

Fans of the show would have a hard time forgetting about Margaretha -- joining the cast in season 6, she moved from Indonesia to Wisconsin to live with her fiancé, Eric Rosenbrook.

Birdman is hinting Bad Bunny owes his massive success to Drake ... claiming the "Un Verano Sin Ti" star's secretly been signed to October's Very Own since the start!!!

The Cash Money boss has been swatting at all Drake's new album critics and backed his star pupil on a recent podcast with Wack 100 where he claimed BB has been an OVO artist all this time and the public was just unaware ... until now.

BB's been releasing music for over a decade and his 2018 studio debut album did indeed feature Drake on the song "MIA" ... all released on Rimas Entertainment with no OVO credits whatsoever.

What Birdman does NOT address is why in the world Bunny and Drake would keep this alleged affiliation under wraps.

BB recently returned the feature favor on Drake's "For All the Dogs" album -- an album Birdman has been fiercely defending against the negative opinions of Joe Budden and Druski. He's also clapped at Gillie Da Kid for allegedly faking like he got rich off his stint with Cash Money.

Ariana Grande's ex-husband, Dalton Gomez, is certainly enjoying the single life ... he was locking lips with actress Maika Monroe right on the heels of officially ending his marriage.

According to DeuxMoi, Dalton and the "It Follows" star were packin' on the PDA this past weekend -- the person who snapped the photo claims they were friendly with others at Jumbo's Clown Room ... a "bikini bar" in Los Angeles.

Maika and Dalton were apparently making out quite a bit, and barely trying to hide it -- the witness says the apparent couple would look around to see if anyone was watching before goin' back at it.

Dalton's clearly moved on from Ariana -- TMZ broke the story, the former husband and wife finalized their divorce on Friday, just weeks after they simultaneously filed for divorce.

As we reported, Ariana handed Dalton $1,250,000 as part of the settlement instead of spousal support. He's also getting half of the proceeds from the sale of their L.A. pad, and Ariana will have to cough up another $25k for his attorney's fees.

We were told there's a "strong mutual love and respect" between them ... and as you know, Ariana's already moved on from Dalton to her "Wicked" costar, Ethan Slater.

No, we haven't seen them suckin' faces at a strip club, but they did venture to Disney World last month. Not exactly the same vibe.

Did Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez move on too soon after their separation? Vote below.

El ex marido de Ariana Grande, Dalton Gomez, sin duda está disfrutando de la vida de soltero. Lo vimos besando a la actriz Maika Monroe justo después de terminar oficialmente su matrimonio.

Dalton y la estrella de "It Follows" tuvieron una cita el pasado fin de semana. La persona que tomó la foto afirma que fueron muy "amistosos" el uno con el otro en Jumbo's Clown Room, un "bar de bikini" en Los Ángeles.

Maika y Dalton aparentemente se besaron sin ocultar nada. El testigo dice que la pareja miraba a su alrededor para ver si alguien estaba observando antes de volver a hacerlo.

Está claro que Dalton ha superado a Ariana. TMZ publicó la noticia, los ex marido y mujer finalizaron su divorcio el viernes solo unas semanas después de que solicitaran el divorcio simultáneamente.

Como informamos, Ariana le entregó Dalton $1,250,000 como parte del acuerdo en lugar de manutención conyugal. También recibe la mitad de los ingresos de la venta de su propiedad en L.A. y Ariana tendrá que soltar otros $25k para los honorarios de su abogado.

Nos dijeron que hay un "fuerte amor y respeto mutuo" entre ellos, y como usted sabe, Ariana ya ha olvidado a Dalton con su coprotagonista, Ethan Slater.

If there's a competition for the most popular Halloween costumes, Barbie and Ariel, the "Little Mermaid" are queens of the hill this year -- and everything related to those characters is flying off shelves.

A rep for HalloweenCostumes.com tells TMZ ... those 2 themes have been knocking it out of the park for 2023, as expected with the popularity of their movies -- especially "Barbie" -- this year.

For Barbie, the company's officially licensed costumes have been selling 9x as much as they did last year ... and the site's "Barbie-Inspired" looks have also boosted 40%.

As for Ariel, her styles are up nearly 70% in 2023, too -- and the company is just hoping its inventory will be enough to get 'em through the spooky season!

Believe it or not, the movies aren't the only hot topics in the world of Halloween costumes ... we're told there's been a major spike in interest for Beyoncé and Taylor Swift looks -- obviously because of their extremely popular concert tours.

HalloweenCostumes.com has responded to the concert craze by making costume guides for each option -- a combination of some of the site's items that, when put together, make for a pretty great look-alike.

Si hubiera una competencia por los disfraces de Halloween más populares, Barbie y La Sirenita serían las ganadoras, ¡porque ambas están agotando las estanterías este año!

Un representante de HalloweenCostumes.com le informó a TMZ que estos disfraces han estado arrasando, sin duda gracias a los estrenos de este año.

En cuanto a Barbie, los disfraces con licencia oficial de la empresa se han vendido 9 veces más que el año pasado y los looks "inspirados en Barbie" también han aumentado un 40%.

¡En cuanto a Ariel, sus atuendos también han aumentado casi un 70% en 2023 y la compañía solo espera contar con el inventario suficiente para hacerle frente a la temporada!

Lo crean o no, las películas no son los únicos temas candentes en el mundo de los disfraces de Halloween. Nos dicen que también ha habido un aumento importante en el interés por Beyoncé y Taylor Swift, obviamente, debido a sus populares giras.

HalloweenCostumes.com ha respondido a la moda de los conciertos elaborando guías de disfraces para cada opción. Si combinas de algunos de los artículos del sitio, te darás cuenta de que al juntarlos dan lugar a un look bastante impresionante.

Zak Bagans is exercising his right to scare the crap out of folks at his Haunted Museum ... by bringing in some creepy-ass artifacts from famous exorcisms!!!

The "Ghost Adventures" star tells TMZ ... he recently got his hands on the fabled "Exorcism Box," which was used during the 1970s real-life exorcisms of Anneliese Michel ... whose story is the inspiration behind 2005's "The Exorcism of Emily Rose."

Zak tells us he got the box from filmmaker Christopher Saint Booth, who wanted to get rid of it after a disturbing experience, to put it mildly. While he had the box, Booth says he felt something growing inside him, and a doctor determined the growth contained teeth and stem cells.

Booth says he had an archbishop exorcise the box ... and while doing so, he saw a dark figure dart past him. Booth believes it was Anneliese, who died way back in 1976 following 67 catholic exorcism rites.

Zak says Booth told him the archbishop saw the figure too, which appeared to have Anneliese's face, and it was shaking uncontrollably as if being pushed away from the box by a dark energy. Booth believes the "Exorcism Box" absorbed all the energy from Anneliese's exorcisms.

If that doesn't give you enough chills ... Zak also obtained a copy of the infamous Exorcist Diary, which inspired the 1974 movie "The Exorcist."

There are only 6 copies of the diary, 2 of which remain in a vault at the Vatican. The diary documents a 3-month period of exorcisms on a 13-year-old boy in St. Louis way back in 1949 and includes a map of Hell.

Zak says Booth had the diary while working on a documentary called "The Exorcist File" ... and Booth says he felt very oppressed and suicidal whenever the diary was nearby.

And, get this ... Zak says Booth told him he had the diary with him in a hotel room when he saw a horned, shadowy figure appear just before something scratched his ankle and pulled him out of bed. 😱

Since bringing the items to his Haunted Museum in Las Vegas, Zak says countless guests are refusing to enter the new Exorcism Room Exhibit before they even know what's inside ... with some saying they felt light-headed.

Zak is not new to the exorcism world -- he filmed the 100th episode of "Ghost Adventures" in the house where the notorious St. Louis exorcism was performed.

It's a timely acquisition for Zak with Halloween lurking, and "The Exorcist: Believer" just hitting theaters.

Zak Bagans está ejerciendo su derecho a asustar a la gente en su Museo Embrujado, ¡¡¡trayendo algunos famosos artefactos para practicar exorcismos a su colección!!!

La estrella de "Ghost Adventures" le dice a TMZ que recientemente adquirió una "caja de exorcismo" que se utilizó en los exorcismos de Annalise Michel en los infames años 70, y cuya historia inspiró la película "El exorcismo de Emily Rose".

Zak nos dijo que consiguió la caja del cineasta Christopher Saint Booth, quien quería deshacerse de ella después de una experiencia perturbadora.

Booth dice que mientras tenía la caja consigo sintió que algo raro crecía dentro de él y un médico determinó que ese crecimiento contenía dientes y células madre. Luego le pidió a un arzobispo que la exorcizara, y al hacerlo, vio pasar a una figura oscura que cree era de Annalise, quien murió en 1976 después de 67 ritos de exorcismo católico.

Booth le dijo a Zak que el arzobispo también vio a la figura sacudiéndose incontrolablemente, como si una energía oscura la empujara fuera de la caja. Booth cree que la "caja del exorcismo" absorbió toda la energía de los exorcismos de Annalise.

Zak también nos cuenta que obtuvo una copia del infame Diario del Exorcista, que inspiró la película de 1974, "El Exorcista."

Solo hay seis copias de los diarios, dos de los cuales permanecen en una bóveda en el Vaticano y documenta un período de 3 meses de exorcismos a un niño de 13 años en St. Louis allá por 1949, que también incluye un mapa del infierno.

Zak dice que Booth tuvo el diario mientras trabajaba en un documental llamado "The Exorcist File", y que se sentía muy oprimido y suicida cuando estaba cerca de él.

Y escuchen esto... Booth le dijo que tenía el diario consigo en un hotel cuando vio aparecer una sombra con cuernos, justo antes de ser arañado en el tobillo y sacado de la cama.

Desde que trajo los objetos a su Museo Embrujado de Las Vegas, Zak dice que innumerables visitantes se niegan a entrar en la nueva exposición de la Sala de Exorcismos, antes incluso de saber lo que hay dentro. Algunos dicen haber sido tocados o haberse sentido mareados.

Zak no es nuevo en el mundo del exorcismo. Él fue quien filmó el episodio 100 de "Ghost Adventures" en la casa donde se realizó el famoso exorcismo de St. Louis.

El que pronto será el exmarido de Mia Thornton, Gordon, está criticando a la estrella de 'Real Housewife of Potomac' por abandonarlo ahora que tiene problemas financieros, una señal segura de que estaba buscando oro cuando le dio el "sí, quiero".

Gordon Thornton dice a TMZ que Mia solo se comprometió con él porque vio el futuro que podría proporcionarle sus recursos, pero ahora que sus fondos son inaccesibles, ella lo está dejando en busca de una "mejor opción".

Y escuchen esto, Gordon nos dice que le dio a la estrella del reality show un pase libre para tener sexo, porque sabía que no sería capaz de satisfacerla debido a su edad. Él tiene 71 años y recientemente tuvo una cirugía de cáncer de próstata.

Gordon dice que pensó que el pase vendría con un entendimiento abierto y honesto sobre ver a alguien más, pero afirma que todo ha ocurrido a escondidas.

Lo que es más, Gordon dice que ella está mintiendo sobre las razones de por qué lo está dejando y que está cambiando constantemente su historia, lo que agrava aún más la situación.

TMZ dio la noticia, Gordon fue sorprendido cuando Mia presentó la separación legal. Lo que más le molestó fue que Mia hizo parecer que su relación era perfecta en las redes sociales cuando detrás de cámaras estaba preparando los papeles del divorcio.

Gordon nos dice que el comportamiento de Mia está empezando a afectar a sus hijos, y es por eso que ha empezado a hablar en contra de ella.

Mia Thornton's soon-to-be ex-husband, Gordon, is blasting the 'Real Housewife' for ditching him now that he's in financial trouble -- a sure sign, he says, she was gold digging when she said "I do."

Gordon Thornton tells TMZ ... Mia only tied the knot with him because she saw the future his resources could provide her, but now that his funds are inaccessible, she's leaving him in search of an "upgrade."

And, get this ... Gordon tells us he gave the "Real Housewives of the Potomac" star a hall pass for sex, because he knew he wouldn't be able to satisfy her sexually due to his age -- he's 71, and recently had prostate cancer surgery.

Gordon says he thought the hall pass came with an understanding she would be open and honest with him about seeing someone else ... but he claims she's been sneaking around.

What's more, Gordon says she's lying about why she's leaving him, and is constantly changing her story ... so he's aggravated and wishes she would just be honest.

TMZ broke the story ... Gordon was blindsided when Mia filed for legal separation, and he was peeved she made it seem like their relationship was perfect on social media when behind the scenes she was gearing up to serve him court docs.

Gordon tells us Mia's behavior is now starting to affect their children, which is why he's speaking out against her.

Matt Barnes feels Damian Lillard getting traded to the Bucks -- instead of his preferred destination of the Heat -- is a blessing in disguise ... telling TMZ Sports he believes the All-Star guard has a better chance at winning an NBA title in Milwaukee than he would in Miami.

The "All The Smoke" podcast host and ex-NBA star gave us his take at the 5th Annual KiKi Shepard Celebrity Golf Classic last week ... and he says even though Lillard didn't end up in South Beach like he reportedly requested, he should be more than thrilled with the outcome.

"I'm excited for Dame," Barnes said. "Obviously he wanted to go to Miami. That didn't happen, but for him to have the opportunity to win, I think is the key and the goal and him teaming up with Giannis [Antetokounmpo] is definitely gonna give him a great opportunity to win a championship."

"I think probably even a better opportunity than he would had in Miami."

Of course, some fans might not agree -- the Heat have been to the NBA Finals twice since the 2020 season ... and Jimmy Butler is one of the best playoff players in the league.

However, Butler, coach Erik Spoelstra and the Heat came up short both times ... where the Bucks made the Finals and won in 2021 -- their first appearance in over four decades.

"Bucks are high," Barnes said. "It's gonna be a fun season."

La nueva película de "El exorcista" no está recaudando tanto dinero como le gustaría a su estudio, lo que no es una gran noticia teniendo en cuenta que se gastaron casi 500 millones de dólares para ponerla en marcha.

Las cifras de taquilla del primer día de "El exorcista: Believer', de David Gordon Green, son, cuando menos, decepcionantes, con solo 11,9 millones de dólares recaudados el viernes, lo que incluye unos 2,8 millones de dólares en los preestrenos del jueves.

A este ritmo, la proyección para el fin de semana de 3 días es de unos 28 millones de dólares en el país, que es inferior a las estimaciones iniciales para esta película de terror, que estaban en torno a los $30 y $35 millones.

Por supuesto, cuando la película de Taylor Swift se estrene la semana que viene, es casi seguro que borrará del mapa a "El exorcista: Believer', por lo que en general, esta última entrega, o eboot no parece estar en camino a hacer grandes ganancias. Y eso es preocupante para Universal.

¿La razón? El estudio gastó una fortuna para obtener los derechos de la franquicia 'El Exorcista', más de 400 millones de dólares, y están planeando producir otras dos secuelas después de esta. A pesar de las malas críticas y de la decepcionante taquilla, puedes apostar a que seguirán adelante con el plan: han gastado demasiado dinero para no hacerlo.

The new 'Exorcist' movie isn't raking in as much dough as its parent studio would like -- which isn't great news considering almost half a billion dollars was spent to get it going.

Here's the deal ... the first-day box office numbers for David Gordon Green's 'Exorcist: Believer' are in -- and they're underwhelming to say the least ... just $11.9 million from Friday's haul, which includes about $2.8 million in Thursday previews.

At this pace, the projection for the 3-day weekend is about $28 million domestically ... which is lower than what the initial estimates had this horror flick making, about $30-$35 million.

Of course, when the Taylor Swift movie comes out next week ... it's almost sure to wipe 'Exorcist: Believer' completely off the map -- so, big picture, this latest installment/reboot doesn't appear to be on track for major gains ... and that's troubling for Universal.

The reason ... the studio spent a fortune to attain the rights to the 'Exorcist' franchise -- upwards of $400 million -- and they're planning on cranking out 2 more sequels after this. Despite poor reviews and an underwhelming box office, you can bet they're gonna chug right along and crap those out in the next few years -- they spent way too much $$$ not to.
