Robert Downey Jr.'s daughter Avri Downey is getting into the family business ... she's set to film a new television show ... and we found out how much she's being paid.

TMZ obtained the minor's contract Avri signed for her role in an upcoming show, "Oswald," and it calls for her to be paid $1,246 for one day of shooting.

The deal was signed last year, and her character was listed as "Family Photo Kid" ... so it sounds like a smaller role.

Avri's daily rate is a far cry from her dad’s reported $100 Million salary in "Avengers: Doomsday" ... but, hey, we all gotta start somewhere.

Nolan Wells' mom is laying the legal groundwork to potentially sue over her son's mysterious death ... asking a Mississippi court to put her in charge of his estate.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Christine Wonsley filed a petition Monday to open Nolan's estate and appoint her as its administrator ... saying the estate's assets would consist "solely of claims for damages resulting from the circumstances surrounding his death."

Put simply ... the appointment would give Christine the authority to file a lawsuit on behalf of Nolan's estate if anyone is ultimately found legally responsible for his death.

Terry Dubrow wants Vicki Gunvalson to shut up about how he and Heather Dubrow made their money ... and thinks he can squash the speculation with a not-so-friendly wager.

We got Terry outside Steak 48 in Beverly Hills Monday, and he had a lot to say about "The Real Housewives of Orange County" star running her mouth.

Here's the deal ... VG's saying Terry and Heather didn't work for their wealth, but actually inherited it from Terry's late brother, Kevin.

But the Dubrows say Vicki's full of it.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner's widow says the late 'Cosby Show' star left behind $1.2 million in broken promises when he died ... and she's suing his mother to try and collect.

According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Tenisha Warner is suing Malcolm's mother, Pamela Warner, who now serves as trustee of the Warner Family Trust.

Tenisha claims Malcolm -- best known for his role of Theo Huxtable -- agreed to provide her with a number of financial benefits under a prenuptial agreement they signed in May 2022, just days before tying the knot ... but she says he failed to follow through on several of the promises before his death.

Former Pittsburgh Steelers star running back Le'Veon Bell was busted over the weekend ... and it's connected to child support payments, or an alleged lack thereof.

Le'Veon's attorney, Thomas Shaffer, tells TMZ ... Le'Veon did not make support payments, which are based on a healthy NFL salary -- a salary he's not earned in years.

Shaffer notes the support guidelines by law are based on current income, not his NFL salary, so computing these guidelines on inaccurate information is unfair.

Le'Veon allegedly owes more than $50,000 for child support.

The child in question lives in Michigan ... which is why the Michigan Attorney General has the case.

Nicki Minaj wants out of a $275K lawsuit filed against her, and she's asking a judge to toss it ASAP ... TMZ has learned.

In court docs obtained by TMZ, Nicki argues she has nothing to do with the money allegedly owed to 24/7 Productions ... at least on a personal level. Nicki says the only contract at issue in the lawsuit is one allegedly between the production company that filed the suit and her company, Pink Friday Productions LLC.

Nicki says it's basic law that an individual member of a company isn't responsible for the debts of the company ... so he's asking the judge to dismiss the case against her and wants 24/7 to fork over her attorney's fees she spent fighting the lawsuit!

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kelli Potter is close to having her wages seized over an unpaid six-figure debt.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, a company named ARF Financial sued Kelli and her restaurant, Nana’s Chicken-N-Waffles, in 2025 ... she failed to respond to the suit, and a default judgment was entered against her in the amount of $217,301, which grows with interest every day. 

Kelli’s creditor is firing off subpoenas to various banks to see if the 'RHOA' star has any money in accounts to seize. 

Devin Haney and his baby mama, Leena Sayed, hammered out a custody agreement ... and in the process, the boxer revealed his massive monthly income.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Devin agreed to pay Leena $20,000 a month in child support ... a figure they say was based on Devin's monthly earnings of $435,699.

The exes also agreed to joint legal and physical custody of their one-year-old daughter, Khrome ... though Devin must have a professional nanny or his mother around when he's watching the kid ... at least until she's 3.

Tyler Perry claims his male sexual assault accuser, Mario Rodriguez, is working overtime to pressure him into a settlement … but the famed director says he won't cave.

In new legal docs, filed by Tyler's legal team and obtained by TMZ, the movie mogul fires back at Mario's claim he won't sit for a deposition unless Mario agrees not to ask about his sexual orientation. Mario asked that Tyler be sanctioned for not appearing at a deposition, where he says he planned to ask Tyler if he was attracted to men.

In his new filing, Tyler scoffs at Mario's claims about the deposition and says he already agreed to sit for one ... but will not agree to talk about his sexual orientation.

He claims Mario holds the "backwards belief" that he should "be embarrassed to answer questions about his sexual orientation." Tyler insists he's not embarrassed and says Mario's motion was filed to pressure him into settling the case -- and it's not working.

The jury already hit Kanye West with a hefty tab ... and now a former employee who won a civil case against the rapper earlier this year is now asking a judge to make Kanye cough up $1.2 million in attorney's fees.

According to new court docs, obtained by TMZ, Anthony Saxon Netelkos says his legal team is entitled to the massive payout after a jury awarded him $140,000 in damages after finding Ye liable under California's Labor Code.

Saxon's team says they logged more than 740 attorney hours over the nearly three-year fight, plus additional litigation staff time, and are asking the court to apply a 1.75 multiplier to the fee total because of what they describe as the case's complexity and risk.

Jordan Belfort -- aka "The Wolf of Wall Street" -- is finally free from making court-ordered restitution payments stemming from his federal fraud case, TMZ has learned.

According to sources, Jordan's legal obligation to continue making restitution payments expired on April 28, 2026 ... bringing to a close more than two decades of court supervision tied to the case.

Jordan tells TMZ ... "For nearly three decades, I've lived with the consequences of my past and worked every day to take responsibility for it. Today, I can finally say that I completed my court-ordered restitution. It's hard to put into words what that means. It brings a sense of closure that I've been working toward for most of my adult life."

Boosie Badazz says he paid big money for a presidential pardon ... but now he's claiming all he got was a massive bill and an empty promise ... and he wants a big refund.

According to a bombshell NOTUS report, the rapper is taking legal action against political operatives Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman after allegedly shelling out $600,000 to help secure a pardon from President Trump -- one Boosie says never came.

The report says Boosie -- whose legal name is Torence Hatch -- struck a deal with the pair last fall after they pitched themselves as having major pull inside Trump's orbit. Boosie claims they were so confident, they acted like they had POTUS "on speed dial."

Things allegedly escalated on New Year's Day ... when Boosie's lawyer got a call claiming Trump had already signed the pardon and the White House just hadn't announced it yet. But according to the report, the pardon never surfaced ... and Boosie is now trying to recover $300,000 under a clause in the contract requiring half the fee be refunded if no pardon was delivered.

He's co-listed it with Hilary, the socialite reality star from Netflix's "Members Only: Palm Beach" ... and the property has one of the highest asking prices in the swanky zip code.

Here's what $42.5 million gets ya ... 13,370 square feet of pure luxury overlooking President Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort.

The lawyers say the entertainer owes $229,541 for work done in a lawsuit brought against the musician for alleged copyright infringement.

There ain't nothin' like a homemade pizza ... and that's why Priscilla Presley's son, Navarone Garibaldi Garcia, is crowdfunding to start his own business!

That's right, the son of Priscilla and Brazilian producer Marco Garibaldi, has launched a GoFundMe to raise $5,500 so he can purchase an industrial oven he plans to cook up some pies in and sell straight from his driveway.

The seller initially wanted $14K for the secondhand oven ... but Navarone says he was able was able to negotiate it down to $8,500 -- and he's putting $3,000 of his own cash toward it.

As for why Navarone's not digging into his famous family's pockets for the new endeavor ... he put it bluntly while speaking with TMZ -- he's got a budget and expenses like everyone else.

He wasn't shy about talking about Priscilla either, telling TMZ ... "She loves the idea but I can't ask for money for every whimsical idea I have or we both would be broke!" He says he's confident she will swing by for a slice.

Navarone, who's also a musician, tells us it's been a dream for him to own a business ... and he has time to focus on this new endeavor now that he's taken a step back from the stage.

His overall goal is to sell affordable, organic pies to his community right from his driveway ... but says he's also open to a brick and mortar shop if things go well.
