K.C. Chiefs Vow To Take Care Of Reid Crash Victim ... 'For The Rest Of Her Life'

Published

The Kansas City Chiefs say they're going to make sure the 5-year-old who was seriously injured in the Britt Reid car crash earlier this year is taken of "for the rest of her life."

The NFL team made the announcement Friday ... explaining after working with Ariel Young's family and medical experts -- they've developed a plan to ensure Young will be supported forever.

According to the Chiefs and Ariel's attorney, Tom Porto, the plan will provide Ariel with "world-class medical care and long-term financial stability."

As we previously reported, Young suffered catastrophic injuries after Reid -- a former K.C. Chiefs assistant coach and Andy Reid's son -- allegedly slammed his pickup truck into the back of a vehicle she was in on Feb. 4 in Kansas City.

Young has slowly and steadily recovered since ... and, as part of Friday's announcement, the Chiefs and Porto say she's continuing to get better daily.

They added that even though her recovery process is still "a long road" -- she did attend her first day of school earlier this fall.

Reid, meanwhile, is still facing a felony DWI charge over his alleged role in the car crash. A trial in the case has been set for April 2022.

Floyd Mayweather I Would've KO'd Logan Paul In 1st Rd ... 'If It Was a Real Fight!!!'

Published

Floyd Mayweather says Logan Paul is lucky their exhibition wasn't a real fight ... 'cause if it was -- and he actually trained for it -- it would've been a 1st round knockout!!

Remember, the YouTube sensation went the distance with Mayweather in June -- even landing a few punches on the undefeated champ.

There wasn't a knockout during the bout ... which pissed off every boxing fan and gave the Paul bros. the bragging rights to say Logan went 8 full rounds with one of the GOATs in boxing.

But, Floyd says no one should've been surprised there was no KO ... 'cause it wasn't a real fight.

"People have gotta know, there's a difference between a real fight and an exhibition," Mayweather said this week at the WBC convention.

"I did an exhibition with the YouTuber Logan Paul. We had fun."

Now, for a REAL fight, Mayweather pulls out all the stops when training for his opponents ... even chopping wood like he did before his Manny Pacquiao fight in 2015.

But, for Logan, Floyd says he wasn't even training that hard.

"All I did was work out from time to time," Mayweather said, "If it was a real fight, it would've been a blowout in the first round."

GIMME ANOTHER SHOT

Funny thing is, Logan told us back in July if he got a rematch with Floyd, "I promise I'll knock him out. Promise."

Well, money talks -- Mayweather reportedly made at least $30 million for the Logan fight ... and like he says, "When it comes to legalized bank robbing, I’m the best.”

So, could a rematch -- real or not -- happen in the future?? If money's involved, never count Floyd out.

Marilyn Manson Sells Home In Hollywood Hills

Published

Marilyn Manson's unloaded his mansion in the Hollywood Hills just weeks after listing it ... TMZ has learned.

The shock rocker just sold his 3-bedroom pad for $1,835,000 this week ... after putting it on the market in October for $1.75 mil ... so he got about 5 percent above the original asking price.

Marilyn's former digs feature 20-foot beamed ceilings and two master suites, complete with their own tiled bathrooms and walk-in closets. The place is 2,711 square feet and it's surrounded by private patios and gardens.

The pad also has French doors, wrought iron railings on the staircase, the garage was converted into a gym, and there's a recording studio and home office.

Worth noting ... this is NOT the place MM allegedly locked women in a soundproof room ... as we reported, that allegedly went down in his West Hollywood apartment. So the new owner doesn't have to worry about any of that.

Jon Grauman from The Agency had the listing.

Travis Scott Legal Woes Grow ... $2 Billion Lawsuit

Published | Updated
UPDATE

5:09 PM PT -- Travis' attorney, Edwin F. McPherson, tells TMZ ... "There has been multiple finger-pointing, much of which has been by city officials, who have sent inconsistent messages and have backtracked from original statements."

UPDATE

He continues ... "Houston Police Chief Troy Finner was quoted in the New York Times as saying, 'You cannot just close when you got 50,000 and over 50,000 individuals. We have to worry about rioting, riots, when you have a group that’s that young.' Yet, just a short time later, Chief Finner states the responsibility to stop the show falls on Travis."

UPDATE

Travis' lawyer adds ... "It was reported that the Operations Plan designated that only the festival director and executive producers have authority to stop the show, neither of which is part of Travis's crew. This also runs afoul of HPD's own previous actions when it shut down the power and sound at this very festival when the performance ran over 5 minutes back in 2019."

UPDATE

And there's this ... "Investigations should start proceeding over finger-pointing so that together, we can identify exactly what transpired and how we can prevent anything like this from happening again."

UPDATE

Sources close to Travis tell TMZ ... the incident caught on video from the crowd in which a fan is seen on a camera platform asking a camera operator to stop the show occurred 50 yards from the stage and was impossible for Travis to see.

UPDATE

We're also told not only was it far from the stage, but the man operating the camera was from a separate company and did not have a direct line of communication with Travis and his team.

The Travis Scott legal saga surrounding Astroworld has just reached a new orbit ... an attorney representing more than 200 alleged victims just filed a $2 billion lawsuit against the rapper and others.

In what has become an apparent rat race among Houston attorneys to scoop up clients in the festival fallout, attorney Thomas Henry just upped the ante. We should note, this is Henry's 5th amended complaint he's filed, but now, he's asking for $2 billion in damages.

The lawsuit, filed against Travis, Drake, Live Nation, NRG Stadium and others alleges fans were "incited into a frenzy" when Travis started to perform and started a surge toward the main stage, trampling and crushing some in attendance.

Henry's latest filing represents 280 plaintiffs and blames organizers for not taking Astroworld safety concerns from 2019 into account when planning 2021's version.

Clearly, Henry's been paying attention to the media coverage from the festival, pointing out the fact fans even climbed platforms during the chaos, begging concert organizers to stop.

The lawsuit is asking for $2 billion, saying, "The Defendants stood to make an exorbitant amount of money off this event, yet they chose to cut corners, cut costs, and put the festival attendees at risk."

Mel Tucker MSU Was Always A 'Destination Job' ... Not A Stepping Stone

Published
111821_mel_tucker_kal2
LONG TERM GOAL

Sorry, LSU fans, Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker is putting the rumors about his future to rest ... saying he's fully intending to stay a Spartan moving forward.

Tucker is considered one of the hottest coaches in college football -- he's earned a 9-1 record so far in 2021, with his name popping up as a candidate to take over for huge programs.

But, the 49-year-old coach joined Warriors star Draymond Green -- a Michigan State alum -- on his new show via the Volume ... and reassured MSU fans that he's not going anywhere.

"I came here and made it clear in my initial press conference that Michigan State was a destination job and not a stepping stone," Tucker said.

Tucker -- a Cleveland native -- also said his familiarity with the Big 10 Conference landscape and the close, personal ties his wife and family have to the region played a role in wanting to continue to call East Lansing home for the foreseeable future.

He then went on to reflect on why MSU was such a special place to him ... saying "This is where I started my career here in 1997 as a graduate assistant for Nick Saban."

Of course, Mel has been the center of conversation this week ... after a report surfaced that MSU was reportedly working on a historic, 10-year, $95 million contract in an effort to keep Tucker on board.

And, while he didn't go into the contract specifics with Green ... he gave fans of the football powerhouse some peace of mind about his future job status.

Madonna Filthy Rich German Shepherd Selling Singer's Former Mansion

Published | Updated

Madonna's former Miami mansion has hit the market for more than $31 million ... and we have the poop and the scoop about the seller.

It's Gunther VI ... a German shepherd with some pretty impressive lineage. Turns out Gunther inherited the property, along with a fortune estimated at $500,000,000!!!

Yeah, it seems absurd, but here's the deal. A German countess named Karlotta Leibenstein created a trust and made Gunther's great grand-paw, Gunther III, the beneficiary. When Karlotta died in '92, Gunther III struck gold.

A succession of pooches have come before Gunther VI and embraced lavish lifestyles with trips to Milan and the Bahamas, etc. In fact, Gunther VI has a thing for the Bahamas, where he dined at various restaurants.

And, there's more ... Gunther has a chef cook him breakfast. He likes caviar and travels by private jet, and not in the cargo hold.

As for his digs, well, Gunther sleeps in Madonna's former bedroom. The house sits on more than an acre, and it's one of the best pieces of real estate on the market. Madonna bought it for $7.5 million 20 years ago, so the current $31.75 million price tag is eyepopping.

The realtor selling the home is clearly impressed with the canine, saying, "He literally sleeps overlooking the most magnificent view in an Italian custom bed in the former bedroom of the greatest pop star in the world."

If Gunther's looking for a shelter, we suggest the Canine Islands.

Kim Kardashian, SKIMS Charter Plane For Afghan Women's Soccer Team ... 30 Players, Families To UK

Published | Updated

Members of the Afghan women's youth soccer team and their families reached safety in the UK on Thursday -- and Kim Kardashian played a huge role in the efforts.

TMZ Sports has confirmed -- Kim and her SKIMS brand shelled out the money to charter a plane for 130 people from Pakistan to the Stansted Airport in London ... after the founder of the Tzedek Association reached out and asked for help in getting the group to safety.

Rabbi Moshe Margaretten -- who's worked with Kim in the past on criminal justice reform -- says the businesswoman was quick to assist after speaking over a video chat.

"Maybe an hour later, after the Zoom call, I got a text message that Kim wants to fund the entire flight," Margaretten told the AP.

Thousands have been fleeing Kabul after the Taliban took over in August ... and members of the developmental soccer team were able to make it to Pakistan and get visas, but could not get a flight until Kim and SKIMS stepped up.

The team was especially in danger ... as the Taliban sees women involved in sports as rebellious.

On top of Kim and SKIMS' help, the EPL's Leeds United has offered to support the team.

Next for the team -- a 10-day quarantine before starting fresh in the UK.

Britney Spears Team Looking to Tidy Up Fortune ... Plus Extra Safeguards

Published | Updated

Britney Spears' team says it has its work cut out post-conservatorship -- and that includes getting all her wealth into one big bucket for proper management ... something they're trying to do right now.

TMZ has obtained new legal docs filed by the man who served as temporary conservator of BS's estate -- aka, the business guy in charge of her money -- and he's asking permission from the court to consolidate a couple of Britney's trusts -- one of which actually predates her being in a conservatorship -- into a single trust with all of her assets.

The paperwork states there are two trusts that have different assets -- one was created in 2004 (well before her public spiral) and another that was whipped up in 2018 (while she was in the thick of the conservatorship).

111221_free_britney_rally_kal 11/12/21
#FREEBRITNEY BOP

Unclear exactly how much dough is in each, but in any case, the docs say they want to revoke both trusts ... and create a brand new one, lumping in all the assets to be managed under one umbrella.

The idea here seems to be that Britney's fortune is pretty fat ... and it'd be easier to keep track of it all if it was under one watchful eye. The docs say the new trust will be managed by someone with "experience representing high net worth individuals" -- which could be read as a potshot that her dad didn't have the skills to manage his daughter's money.

THANK YOU ALL

There's more ... the business guy is also asking for permission to execute a power of attorney and an advanced healthcare directive for Britney -- which could be important safeguards for her wellbeing in case things go south.

A judge has yet to rule on the asks.

Elvis Presley Dental Crown Goes Up For Auction ... And It's Filled with Gold!!!

Published | Updated

There's a crowning piece of Elvis Presley history hitting the market ... his gold-filled dental work is going on the auction block.

Elvis' crown -- one from his mouth -- is up for bidding via Kruse GWS Auctions as part of the upcoming Artifacts of Hollywood & Music auction.

The dental crown has changed hands over the years ... the auction house says Elvis' fiancée, Linda Thompson, originally gifted it to Jimmy Velvet before it ended up in a private collection after being purchased in 1996 from the Elvis Presley Museum ... and now it's time for a new owner.

The bidding starts December 4 at 10 AM PT ... and the auction house is putting the opening bid on the Elvis tooth at $2,500.

The rest of the items going on the block are pretty cool too ... and there's more Elvis memorabilia, including a handwritten letter to his cousin from 1958 when he was stationed in Germany and an Elvis guitar signed by Robert Plant.

Tamar Braxton Home Burgled, Safe Stolen She Responds w/ Godly Message

Published | Updated

Tamar Braxton is the latest victim of brazen burglars -- but instead of vowing vengeance ... she's actually sending them prayers.

The singer broke the startling news early Wednesday morning, saying ... "A few hours ago, this broken, bum ass man (one that I know) broke into my home and stole my safe only."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

In her post, Tamar notes nothing else was taken -- including valuables like a Birkin bag or a computer or gaming systems -- and that the safe seemed to be the only item sought.

She also had a message for the perp ... "I want you to know first hand that I'm not angry. You did not break me. You did not violate me. What your broken ass don't realize that God gave me that home and every single thing in it during a pandemic, & also during the time when I was all of those things. God personally put the pieces of my life back together again."

She adds, "So pumpkin, you did not steal from me. Those things you took, he will give back to me a million times fold!!! You took from God!!!"

Tamar then got seriously Biblical, saying the crook isn't ready for the kind of vengeance God is about to drop on them. She closed with, "Father, have your way -- Amen."

Law enforcement sources confirm Tamar's Calabasas house was broken into Tuesday night around 7 or 8 PM, and that a safe was, indeed, taken. She wasn't home, but God was ... according to Tamar.

Producer Sean Garrett Sure, I'd Work with Britney Again ... As Long as She's Stable!!!

Published

Britney Spears already has one option for a collab partner if she dives back into music again, and that's Sean Garrett ... who tells us he's down, but also kinda hesitant.

We talked to the veteran music producer who's worked with Brit before -- not to mention a ton of other artists with whom he's made hits dating back to the 2000s -- and he's ready for round 2.

Sean and Britney have worked together in the past -- most notably, on her song "Toy Soldier," which he produced ... as well as him being featured on her track, "Kiss You All Over."

With that history, Sean's willing to get in a studio with her -- but watch the clip, because he's definitely cautious to fully commit ... for one good reason.

Fact is, SG is well-aware Britney is just tasting freedom again for the first time in a long time after the judge ended her conservatorship, and that seems to be at the forefront of his mind.

Sean says if she's stable and feeling up to recording again ... he wouldn't mind linking up for fresh tunes -- but he almost seems more interested in whether she's mentally ready.

TMZ broke the story ... Britney's made it clear, she wants to record again, but still hasn't picked a producer or songwriters to work with yet.

Sean's throwing his hat in the ring, but also offering Brit some advice beyond the booth ... especially on managing her funds.

Travis Scott $750M Astroworld Lawsuit ... Drake, Apple, Live Nation Sued Too

Published | Updated

Travis Scott, Drake, Apple, Live Nation and others will now need to answer to a massive $750 million lawsuit brought against them by more than 125 fans, including the family of one who died at the festival.

The suit, filed by Houston attorney Tony Buzbee, is the first of others to come and places the blame on Travis and concert organizers for negligence in failing to properly plan the concert, train security personnel and host a safe event.

Among the plaintiffs is the family of Axel Acosta, a 21-year-old who was allegedly crushed by an "incited, unruly and out-of-control crowd with such force that he could no longer breathe."

As for the staggering $750 million, the lawsuit claims it's to cover both physical and mental health injuries as well as the loss of life.

Buzbee says, "No amount of money will ever make these Plaintiffs whole; no amount of money can restore human life. But, the damages sought in this case attempts to fix, help, or make up for the harms and losses suffered by these Plaintiffs -- nothing more and nothing less."

Travis and Live Nation offered refunds almost immediately to concertgoers, and the lawsuit addresses that offer, calling it, "... a transparent and grotesque effort of the Defendants to limit their liability, after the fact, to the families of those killed or injured."

As we reported ... 10 people have now lost their lives as a result of the Astroworld Festival -- the most recent was a 9-year-old boy.

Law enforcement continues to investigate what caused the deaths, but those in the audience say a crowd crush trapped, trampled and suffocated fans.

POLICE PRESENCE

Sources close to Travis have maintained he didn't realize the severity of what was happening in the crowd while he performed. Photos of cops taking photos and watching Travis' show more than 25 minutes after the HFD Chief declared the concert a "mass casualty event" seem to back Scott's claim up.

Triple Crown Winner Secretariat Horse's Hair Hits Auction Block ... Could Fetch $10K!!!

Published | Updated

A lock of hair from Secretariat -- arguably the greatest racehorse of all time -- has just hit the auction block ... and it can be all yours, if you've got a bunch of extra cash laying around!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... a 12-inch strand from the thoroughbred's mane that was obtained in the 1980s has just gone up for sale at Lelands -- and, experts there say it could sell for as much as $10,000.

We're told the piece of Secretariat's fur was gathered at Churchill Downs in the late '80s, when a groomer handed it over as a gift for a horse racing fan.

Of course, it's worth a bunch of money now considering Secretariat's incredible resume.

The horse was the 1973 Triple Crown winner ... and STILL holds the fastest time in all three races (Kentucky, Preakness, Belmont).

Secretariat -- who died in 1989 -- was inducted into the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame in 1974 and has statues at several stakes, including Belmont. The horse was also honored with a postage stamp in 1999.

There's also 263 roads in the U.S. named after him -- more than any athlete.

Opening price on the lock is $2,500, with bidding set to end Dec. 11.

Good luck!

49ers 'Game Changer' Chain Worth 6 Figs ... Weighs 6.5 Pounds!!!

Published | Updated

The iced-out playmaker chain Deebo Samuel rocked during "Monday Night Football" is as incredible as it looked ... 'cause TMZ Sports has learned the details behind the piece, and it came with a 6-figure price tag!!

The 49ers wide receiver donned the massive chain during the 4th quarter of San Francisco's 31-10 win over the L.A. Rams ... after scoring his second touchdown of the game.

111621_49ers_chain_kal
RED AND GOLD AND DIAMONDS

The piece -- made by Rafaello and Co. in NYC -- had social media talking ... and now we have all the info behind the now-iconic chain.

We're told the "Game Changer" drip -- which was purchased by S.F. cornerback Jason Verrett -- is made of real, pure silver dipped in electro-plated yellow gold ... and is decked out in all-natural sapphires.

And, get this -- the whole thing weighs more than 6 1/2 pounds ... and took 9 weeks to complete.

We're told Rafaello and Co. is also behind another similar concept jewelry piece -- Manny Machado's "Swag Chain" he got for the San Diego Padres this past season.

While we didn't get an exact price tag on the piece, we're told it's at least 6 figures.

BALLER BIRTHDAY

Karl-Anthony Towns got a dope surprise for his 26th birthday -- a party and a $13,000 custom Louis Vuitton bag from his girlfriend, Jordyn Woods!!

The Timberwolves center went out to celebrate his cake day after his game against the Suns on Monday ... but was not aware that a surprise bash was waiting for him.

You can see the 6'11" All-Star and Woods walk into what appears to be a restaurant, when a big crowd screamed "SURPRISE" -- and KAT was in complete shock!!

The fun didn't stop there ... KAT, Woods, friends and fam took the party back home as you can see Towns in his PJs and flops enjoying his birthday cake.

Then it was gift opening time -- Woods hooked her man up with a leather Louis Vuitton Alzer 80 bag ... which comes with a removable interior tray, lock with key and protective cover.

This bag comes with a $13,000 price tag before the custom artwork Woods had done on it ... which features "4:13" on one side and "KAT" on the other.

BTW, 4:13 is a bible verse, "I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me." It also has the date Towns' mother, Jackie, died from COVID (April 13, 2020).

There seems to be a bit of a trend -- Woods also got him an LV bag featuring his mother's name with a halo and angel wings for his birthday last year.

Happy birthday, KAT!!

Clippers' Ivica Zubac Rolex Stolen In Burglary Hooper Interrupted Break-In

Published | Updated

Clippers center Ivica Zubac's Los Angeles area home was burglarized Friday night ... and the 7-foot tall big man interrupted the burglary, TMZ Sports has learned.

Unfortunately, the 2 assailants were able to escape ... according to our law enforcement sources.

The 24-year-old, 7-foot tall Croatian hoops player -- who's averaging nearly 10 points and 8 boards a game with LAC -- left his home around 8 PM Friday night ... before returning around midnight.

When he arrived back at the crib, Zubac -- the 32nd overall pick of the Lakers in 2016 -- noticed a ladder was placed against his home, leading to a second-floor balcony.

Ivica then witnessed two men bolt from the area, hopping a fence and booking it from the property.

The big man called the police ... and the cops responded and cleared the home, ensuring there were no more bad guys inside.

We're told Zubac's place -- which was locked and had a working alarm system -- was ransacked and at least one piece of expensive jewelry, a Rolex watch worth over $20K was gone.

Police are currently investigating.
