Ian Kinsler no representaba ni a los Rangers ni a los Astros, la ex estrella de la MLB tenía en mente una causa mayor que la ALCS. El cuatro veces All-Star, que es judío, realizó el primer lanzamiento con una camiseta del Equipo Israel.

Kinsler es un asistente especial del gerente general de los Rangers, y la organización lo invitó a iniciar el tercer Juego de la Serie de Campeonato de la Liga Americana en Globe Life Field en Arlington, con el primer lanzamiento ceremonial.

Ian nació en Estados Unidos, pero obtuvo la ciudadanía israelí (doble nacionalidad con EE.UU.) hace unos años cuando quiso jugar para Israel en los Juegos Olímpicos de Verano de 2020 en Tokio. A continuación, Ian pasó a ser el mánager del equipo israelí en el Clásico Mundial de Béisbol de 2023.

Desde el horrible ataque de hace dos semanas y media, Kinsler dice que ha estado siguiendo de cerca la situación.

Kinsler es solo uno de los muchos atletas y celebridades que se han expresado desde el 7 de octubre, 1.400 israelíes han sido asesinados desde que comenzó la incursión.

Quizás ninguno haya hecho más que Floyd Mayweather, que envió su avión lleno de suministros a Tel Aviv durante el fin de semana. También se comunicó por FaceTime con soldados de las fuerzas especiales de Israel y participó en una marcha proisraelí en Los Ángeles.

Travis Kelce vive su vida a lo grande y parte de la razón tiene que ver con Taylor Swift... TMZ ha indagado.

Fuentes familiarizadas con la situación nos dicen que el Chiefs tight end acaba de comprar una nueva casa en Kansas City con la venta de cierre el martes. Nos han dicho que la compró por poco menos de seis millones de dólares. Al parecer la compró porque es mucho más grande y más aislada que su antigua casa.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que la propiedad se encuentra en una comunidad cerrada y es una mansión que cuenta con 6 dormitorios, 6 baños y más de 16.000 pies cuadrados de espacio habitable.

Además es muy lujosa, nos dicen que hay una piscina con una cascada adjunta, además, una cancha de tenis y pickleball, por no hablar de un mini campo de golf. Ahora, en cuanto al porqué de la mudanza, nuestras fuentes dicen que había un par de cosas que le molestaban, principalmente la necesidad de más privacidad.

Nos dicen que en la antigua casa de Travis era demasiado accesible al público y estaba empezando a convertirse en una atracción turística y Travis estaba empezando a sentirse incómodo.

Estor resultó ser un problema el fin de semana pasado, cuando TayTay vino a visitar Trav en Kansas City - sólo para tener paparazzi parque fuera y husmear en 'em.

En pocas palabras, quería estar en un lugar más seguro y sí, nuestras fuentes dicen que salir con Taylor en este momento sin duda un factor en su decisión. Dicho esto, nos dicen que compró esta casa con su propio dinero en efectivo y que es solo suya.

Travis Kelce is leveling up his living situation big time -- and part of the reason has to do with Taylor Swift ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us the Chiefs tight end just bought a new home in Kansas City, with the sale closing Tuesday. We're told he snapped it up for just under $6 million ... and, yes, for that kinda dough in KC, he's getting a place that's way bigger and more secluded than his old house.

Our sources say this pad is in a gated community, and it's a straight-up mansion ... 6 bedrooms, 6 baths and over 16,000 square feet of living space!!!

It also screams luxury ... we're told there's a pool with a waterfall attached -- plus, a tennis and pickleball court, not to mention a mini golf course. Now, as far as why he upgraded ... our sources say there were a few things nagging him, including needing more privacy.

We're told at Travis's old house, it was simply far too accessible, and was starting to become a tourist attraction ... with people swinging by and staking out the place -- Travis was getting uncomfortable with the situation.

That actually proved to be an issue as recently as this past weekend ... when TayTay came to visit Trav in Kansas City, only to have paparazzi park outside waiting for any shots of the couple.

Bottom line, he wanted to be in a more secure spot -- and yes, our sources say him dating Taylor right now certainly factored into his decision.

And, we know what some Swifties might be thinking, but, no ... we're told he bought it with his own cash, and it's his alone.

7:00 PM PT -- Trey Songz's attorney, Michael Freedman, tells TMZ, "This is yet another example of nearly decade-old allegations being repurposed to take advantage of California's constitutionally questionable new look back window. We look forward to vindicating Trey on the merits in court."

Trey Songz is being sued by two women who claim they passed out at his house party only to wake up to him forcing himself on them with nonconsensual sex.

According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, the women are accusing Trey of sexual assault and battery for an alleged 2015 incident at his Los Angeles-area estate.

In the docs, the women say they first met Trey in June 2015 when they went to his concert and got invited to an after-party he was hosting. They say subsequent interactions led them to be invited to his home in August for his birthday party.

The women claim they took an Uber to Trey's home and were forced to give a password and turn over the phones to gain admittance. Inside, they say it was mostly women and only a handful of men, and the ladies were pressured to drink alcohol from unsealed bottles.

In the suit, the women say they suddenly felt overwhelmingly intoxicated, despite drinking what they felt was a modest amount ... and believe they were drugged.

They claim they sat on a couch by the pool and that's when Trey swooped in and led them to an upstairs bedroom where they passed out with their clothes on.

The next morning, the women say the woke up naked ... with a naked Trey forcing himself on them.

One woman claims Trey was giving her nonconsensual oral sex. She says she tried to resist but he overpowered her.

The other woman claims she woke up to Trey biting her nipple and forcing his fingers inside her vagina.

In the suit, the women say Trey demanded they take a shower with him after the alleged sexual attacks ... but they say they refused and he became enraged, yelling at them ..."You are little f****** girls, get the f*** out of my house."

The women say they grabbed their clothes and tried to leave, but Trey refused to turn over their phones. Eventually, they say a security guard intervened, gave them their phones from a safe, and they called an Uber.

In their suit, the women say they've suffered lasting injuries from the alleged incident ... and they're going after Trey for damages.

We reached out to Trey's camp ... so far no word back.

La estrella de "RHOBH" Teddi Mellencamp y su marido están alquilando su espaciosa casa de Hollywood Hills.

Teddi y su marido, Edwin Arroyave, han puesto su hogar en el mercado por $ 35k al mes. La propiedad de 4.206 pies cuadrados tiene 5 dormitorios y tiene un montón de ventajas.

Su magnífica casa, situada justo encima de la icónica Sunset Strip, viene con una bañera y vestidor en el dormitorio principal, un gimnasio y una oficina en casa en la propiedad y una piscina en la parte trasera que se extiende sobre la ladera.

Eso no es todo, Teddi y Edwin tienen un spa climatizado, salón al aire libre y una cocina de barbacoa y bar, así que hay toneladas de opciones para entretener a los invitados.

Teddi y Edwin comparten su vivienda principal en otro barrio de Los Ángeles no muy lejano.

A propósito, Farrah Brittany de la Agencia ya tiene arrendataria, y es ni más ni menos que la hija de la estrella de "RHOBH", Kyle Richards y Mauricio Umansky.

'Real Housewives' star Teddi Mellencamp's renting out her Hollywood Hills home, a palatial spot with obvious appeal for anyone -- well, anyone able to spend a small fortune each month.

Teddi and her husband, Edwin Arroyave, have put their pad on the rental market for $35k a month. Yes, you read that right ... welcome to L.A., where 5-figure rent gets you 4,206 square feet, 5 bedrooms and lots of other amenities.

Their gorgeous home, sitting right above the iconic Sunset Strip, comes with a soaking tub and walk-in dressing room in the main bedroom, a gym and home office on property and a pool out back that extends over the hillside.

That's not all -- Teddi and Edwin's place has a heated spa, outdoor lounge and a BBQ kitchen and bar.

So, basically exactly what everyone imagines living and entertaining in the Hollywood Hills would be.

The "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" couple have another home where they live ... not too far away from the Hills rental.

BTW, Farrah Brittany of The Agency holds the listing -- who just so happens to be the daughter of "RHOBH" star Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky.

Patrick Mahomes ain't satisfied with a baseball, soccer, pickleball and F1 team -- the Kansas City Chiefs superstar just revealed he wants a stake in an NFL organization when he retires.

The two-time Super Bowl champ made his intentions known in a press conference with reporters on Wednesday ... just one day after it was announced he invested in the Formula One Alpine racing squad.

"I think Tom [Brady] is trying to do it right now, but that's definitely where you want to get to," Mahomes said. "I love this sport and want to give back in any way possible. When I'm done playing, obviously I'll be a Chiefs fan, but at the same time I want to have that competitive edge I've always had my entire life."

Of course, 28-year-old Mahomes will have to wait until he hangs his helmet up for good before he can hop on board with NFL ownership ... as the league's current rules prohibit active players from having a piece of any organization.

While he waits, Patrick says he's looking at all opportunities to expand his portfolio ... but he's already had a great start -- investing in the Kansas City Royals and Kansas City Current, just to name a few.

"I'm always looking around," Mahomes added. "I can't do it in the NFL while I'm playing, so I'm always looking around at other sports. It's hard to get in all sports, NBA, and all that different type of stuff, but I'm always keeping my ears open. If they give me the opportunity, I'm going to jump at it."

Antonio Brown soltó $15.000 para los pagos de manutención para los hijos después de su detención a principios de este mes. En un video que publicó el martes parecía bastante amargado por la situación.

Brown fue encerrado el domingo después de haber sido acusado de evadir los pagos a su ex, Wiltrice Jackson, pero poco tiempo después, se repartió los $15K necesario para salir de la cárcel.

El martes compartió un video en Instagram que lo muestra cantando algunas letras de Young Jeezy que parecía mostrar que estaba enojado con Jackson, la madre de su hija de 15 años de edad.

"Y no quiero decirle a mi hijo que sus madres no valen nada", canturreó mientras sostenía lo que parecía ser un recibo por el pago de manutención y un gran fajo de billetes. "Y esto no se trata de mí, ella es solo una perra hambrienta de dinero".

Jackson le dijo a TMZ Sports la semana pasada que estaba molesta con Brown por no pagar la manutención de su hija, alegando que le debía casi $31.000.

"Yo quiero que lo arresten", dijo. "Porque ahora mismo, se está burlando del juez... de todo, porque se siente intocable".

Antonio Brown coughed up $15,000 toward child support payments following his arrest earlier this month ... and in a video he posted Tuesday, he seemed bitter about the situation.

Brown was locked up on Sunday after he had been accused of ducking payments to his ex, Wiltrice Jackson ... but a short time later, he doled out the $15K necessary to get out of jail.

And, on Tuesday, he shared a video on Instagram showing him singing some Young Jeezy lyrics that seemed to show he was mad at Jackson, the mother of his 15-year-old daughter.

"And I don't wanna tell my child that his moms ain't s***," he belted out while holding what appeared to be a receipt for the child support payment and a large wad of cash. "And this ain't about me, she just a money hungry bitch."

Jackson told TMZ Sports just last week that she was upset with Brown for not paying child support for their daughter ... claiming he owed her nearly $31,000.

"I do want him arrested," she said. "Because, right now, he's making a mockery out of the judge, out of everything, because he feels like he's untouchable."

Everyone has their price, and Yung Joc is being blunt about his ... saying he wouldn't perform for the LGBTQ+ community for even a quarter of a million dollars!!!

The rapper recently did an interview for VladTV, addressing something Boosie confessed to not too long ago -- namely, turning down $250k for a show at an event that was exclusively for the LGBT crowd.

That, in and of itself, isn't all that surprising ... Boosie's always worn his homophobia on his sleeve -- and Joc is echoing that sentiment.

He says he, too, would refuse that payment if it meant he had to get onstage in front of gay men, specifically. You gotta watch how he says it, though ... Joc admits being extremely uncomfortable with men gawking at him with "lustful eyes" as he raps lyrics to his hit, "It's Goin' Down."

Joc stresses just how much $250k is ... and how big it is to get paid that much cash in one sitting -- and he does this to stress just how strongly he feels about this issue. As he says, he doesn't seem to want to associate himself with that "lifestyle" on principle.

Russell Wilson may not be winning on the football field, but off it is a different story ... the NFL star and his wife Ciara donated $1 million total to a bunch of organizations around Denver!

Russell and Ciara revealed the amazing contribution on Tuesday ... saying they gave ten different nonprofits in Denver $100k each.

The 9x Pro Bowler and Ciara -- who is pregnant with their third child -- hand over massive checks to "deserving organizations"  ... in partnership with their Why Not You Foundation and Common Spirit Health.

"We are forever grateful for the opportunity to impact our youth!" Wilson said.

"Today, we celebrated 10 deserving organizations which will each receive $100,000 to support their remarkable work in health equity, education, food security, social justice, and support for children and youth."

Of course, the gesture comes days after the Broncos lost a close Thursday Night Football game to the Chiefs, bringing their record to 1-5 record, putting them in last place in the AFC West.

Fans had high expectations when they landed the Super Bowl champ in a trade back in March 2022 ... giving him a 4-year, $245 million extension.

But, the 34-year-old quarterback hasn't been good ... he's 5-16 as the starter, and was sacked 55 times last season, the most in his NFL career. This year hasn't been much better.

However, Broncos' new head coach Sean Payton says the blame shouldn't be entirely on Russ.

"We got to be able to throw it better to win in this league, and that wasn’t directed at one player," Payton said after the TNF loss, "It was directed at all of us on offense."

Despite the struggles in Broncos Country, Wilson hasn't let the on-field struggles slow down his philanthropy.

Todo el mundo tiene su precio, y Yung Joc está siendo franco sobre el suyo, diciendo que no actuaría para la comunidad LGBTQ+ ¡ni siquiera por un cuarto de millón de dólares!

El rapero hizo recientemente una entrevista para VladTV, abordando algo que Boosie confesó no hace mucho tiempo: rechazazó $250k por un show en un evento que era exclusivamente para el público LGBT.

Eso, en sí mismo, no es tan sorprendente. Boosie siempre ha sido onesto con su homofobia.

Él dice que también rechazaría ese pago si eso significa tener que subir al escenario delante de hombres homosexuales en concreto. Joc admite sentirse muy incómodo cuando los hombres lo miran con "ojos lujuriosos" mientras rapea la letra de su éxito, "It's Goin' Down".

Joc hace hincapié en lo mucho que es $250k y lo grande que es para obtener el pago de esa cantidad de dinero en efectivo en una sola sesión y lo hace para subrayar lo decidio que se siente acerca de este tema. Como él dice, no parece querer asociarse con ese "estilo de vida" por principio.

A home belonging to Dodgers reliever Evan Phillips was burglarized earlier this month while he was away trying to help Los Angeles win a playoff series ... this according to cops.

Law enforcement tells TMZ Sports ... the break-in at Phillips' L.A.-area pad happened at some point while he was competing against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the National League Division Series.

We're told one suspect smashed a rear window of Phillips' place, entered the home ... and then allegedly took jewelry and cash totaling over $10,000.

So far, no arrests have been made ... and an investigation remains ongoing.

Phillips, who's been pitching for the Dodgers since 2021, threw 2.1 innings in the series against the D-Backs, giving up no earned runs while striking out three. It's unclear if he was aware of the break-in while on the mound.

It's at least the third time cops say a Dodgers player has had to deal with a burglary at their home in the last few months ... police say places belonging to Max Muncy and Freddie Freeman were also ransacked by thieves this season.

We're told the Phillips case, however, does not appear to be connected to the other two.

10/18 9:23 AM PT -- PD Beats tells TMZ Hip Hop the lawsuit is simply "an effort" to be in front of his business more ... as he hopes he and producers like Chicago's J Craig get their "just due."

Juice WRLD remains one of the top-streaming artists, even in death, but one man claims he co-wrote one of his hit songs and is now suing for his cut of the profits.

TMZ Hip Hop obtained a new lawsuit filed by Pierre DeJournette a.k.a. PD Beats ... one of the writers credited -- along with Dr. Luke and others -- on the 2021 Juice Wrld track "Not Enough."

The song was released posthumously as part of JW's "Fighting Demons" album, but PD is claiming his repeated attempts to get recognized as a co-author, and to get paid for his work have failed. So, now he's taking the matter to court.

In addition to suing Juice Wrld's estate, PD is going after Interscope Records, KBeazy, and others who apparently contributed to the track.

PD seems to believe everyone's getting paid 'cept him!!! 😩

The track is a big hit on Spotify ... 59 million plays and counting, a testament to the musical legacy JW left behind after his 2019 death from a fatal overdose.

PD is requesting the courts officially declare him a co-writer on the song, and he wants a full accounting of the profits ... so he can claim his piece.

We reached out to Interscope for comment but haven't heard back yet.

Logan Paul is closing the Dillon Danis chapter of his life ... saying he's no longer considering taking an MMA match with his nemesis after easily handling him in the ring.

Remember, Paul initially said back in September he was down to scrap in Danis' territory if the former Bellator fighter showed up to their Oct. 14 fight ... and the two shook hands on it to seal the deal.

Now, Maverick is backpedaling on his promise ... saying an MMA rematch is not gonna happen -- even though he's confident he'd "beat his ass."

"No, and you know why?" Logan said on his "Impaulsive" podcast. "I said I would if he gave me his whole purse, which is not gonna happen, obviously."

"Bro, he doesn't deserve the platform," he continued. "We saw what kind of person he is. I walked into the arena to boos, I left to cheers. No one likes that dirty fight s***, bro. You came to box, like, respect the sport. Respect me as an opponent. Back up your words. Are you a man?"

"You can't talk that much s*** for three months. You can't try to ruin someone's life and then come in there with that kind of performance."

Paul is referring to the incessant social media attack Danis unloaded leading up to the fight ... something that led to his fiancée, Nina Agdal, filing a lawsuit and restraining order against him.

Many believe Danis didn't put his money where his mouth was ... and for that reason, Logan's out on dealing with the guy in the future.

DJ Envy is being accused of using his 'Breakfast Club' platform to scam potential real estate buyers, but DJ Akademiks is feeling zero sympathy for them, and thinks you shouldn't either.

He's calling for the claimants themselves should be subjects on "The Breakfast Club" ... as Charlamagne tha God's collective "Donkey of the Day" for being dumb enough to allegedly get duped by Caesar Piña in the first place!!!

Ak got a hearty laugh diving into the mounting news coverage surrounding Piña and Envy's multiple lawsuits for real estate fraud ... and completely lost it over internet personality Tony the Closer's self-appointed mission to take down Envy.

Now, to be clear, Ak does think the investors deserve to get back their money -- but, also says they should've thought twice before handing over hundreds of thousands of dollars to Piña.

Envy's attorney Massimo F. D'Angelo recently told TMZ Hip Hop the 'BC' cohost was out a whooping $500k, making him a victim himself. Ak agrees with that sentiment, but says the lawsuits are legit due to Envy's association with Piña.

Envy has been adamant he didn't steal a dime from any of the plaintiffs ... which hasn't exactly helped social media cut back on the real estate memes.
