Meanwhile, Biggie also makes history with his arrest fingerprint docs ... the first-ever piece you can snag of him signing off by his real name, Christopher Wallace.

ALABAMA RIVERBOAT BRAWL PARTICIPANTS LAUNCH FIGHT MERCH ... Suing Others For Using Their Likeness

Published

Two key people in the viral Alabama riverboat brawl are capitalizing on their newfound fame ... by hawking merch based on the infamous fight.

Reggie Ray, who was charged with disorderly conduct after being identified as the man who whacked a folding chair at several people, and Tammie Howard teamed up with attorney Jehan "J" Carter to launch the new line of merch.

Carter tells us Ray and Howard wanted to create stock of their own after seeing other people selling clothing related to the riverboat brawl -- and using their likeness -- on sites like Etsy and Amazon.

Retailing between $12.99-$59.99, the "Alabama Brawl Collection" boasts a series of mugs, water bottles, hats, sweaters, and hoodies with the most common slogan: "Fade In The Water."

Other taglines from the unisex line-up include "Lift Every Chair And Swing," "Let Freedom Swing," "Chairman For Justice," and "Nathaniel Alexander, He Invented The Folding Chair So That You Could Swing."

Sizes range from S to 3XL, with the site urging people to snag the items to "celebrate the bravery of the Alabama Brawl."

Moving forward ... J Carter also tells us Reggie and Tammy have decided to take legal action against those who've used their likeness and trademarks without their consent.

If you remember, the internet went wild with viral clips from the riverfront Montgomery brawl -- beginning with men from a pontoon boat blocking a passenger ferry from docking ... sparking a huge showdown along racial lines.

Ex-USC Coach Alex Grinch Unloading $4.45 Million Home ... Weeks After Firing

Published | Updated

Former USC Trojans defensive coordinator Alex Grinch is wasting no time getting out of town -- TMZ Sports has learned the coach is parting ways with his $4.45 million Palos Verdes pad just two weeks after getting fired.

Grinch's soon-to-be former home -- located in the Malaga Cove neighborhood -- has four bedrooms and four bathrooms, a gourmet chef's kitchen and a patio with an incredible ocean view.

The place was built in 1961 but was completely remodeled just last year ... with new hardwood floors, Dutch and French doors, a gas fireplace, stainless steel appliances and a custom beverage center.

The backyard is perfect for hosting gatherings ... with a ton of space for outdoor activities.

The pics of the home show some of Grinch's framed jerseys from his former coaching gigs with Washington State and Missouri ... but we take it those ain't coming with the sale.

Worth noting -- the place is just a 5-minute drive from Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley's $17 million mansion ... so that might explain why Grinch is in a rush to move on, considering he's the one who fired him.

The place is listed with Nicole Reis at Compass ... and just by looking at that sunset, it won't be long before it has a new owner.

Sandy Koufax Game-Used Glove Hits Auction ... 67-Year-Old Mitt!!!

Published | Updated

You may not ever be able to throw like Sandy Koufax, but you can now catch like him -- 'cause one of his game-used gloves has just gone up for sale!!

TMZ Sports has learned ... a mitt the former Dodgers star wore during his second MLB season way back in 1956 hit the Grey Flannel auction block on Monday -- and bidding has already reached over $48,000.

A lofty price tag, for sure ... but the glove is certainly worth it -- as the ultra-rare, 67-year-old piece helped Koufax and the Dodgers win the '56 N.L. pennant.

The Rawlings mitt has some cool markings that show it belonged to the legendary pitcher ... including his No. 32 near the wrist strap -- as well as his nickname, "Koo Foo," written in faded black marker on the glove's pinky.

"This is a rare find indeed, one that stretches back to Sandy's earliest days in Major League Baseball," Grey Flannel exec Michael Russek said. "His career speaks for itself and we're confident this glove will generate plenty of action."

Unclear what experts ultimately expect it to sell for ... but the auction ends next month -- so there's still plenty of time to submit bids.

JOHN OATES 'SHOW COMPASSION AND SUPPORT' ... Breaks Silence Amid Hall's Lawsuit

Published | Updated

Compassion and support are on John Oates' mind ... after being sensationally slapped with a restraining order from his former jam buddy Daryl Hall last week.

Breaking his silence following the legal turmoil ... the 75-year-old dropped a T'Giving IG selfie Thursday ... encouraging all to go above and beyond to help those suffering worldwide -- because nothing says "I'm taking the high road" like a cryptic call for empathy ... right?!

He wrote in the caption: "During this time of communal reflection and connection with loved ones, let's not forget those experiencing challenges globally."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Oates added ... "As we come together, consider reaching out to support those in need—whether through local charities or international humanitarian initiatives. May our collective efforts contribute to a more compassionate and supportive world."

As we previously reported ... the longtime friendship between the world's greatest rock and soul duo soured after Hall hit Nashville Chancery Court on Nov. 16, begging for a restraining order against Oates ... which was granted the following day and effective Nov 30.

The file is sealed, and no information is publicly available ... however, our sources say the fallout is over which one of their songs Oates is allowed to sing on his own.

Oates had a string of concerts scheduled earlier this month ... but his most recent two on Nov 9 and 10 were canceled and rescheduled for next year ... and it's not clear why.

It looks like Oates will be taking a backseat from the stage for a while now ... well, until the matter is resolved between the pair.

Though, with Hall shading Oates on Bill Maher's "Club Random" podcast last year -- referring to him as his "business partner" and NOT his "creative partner" -- the tension has been brewing for a while ... and evidently a long way off before calling it a truce.

John Oates Muestra compasión y apoyo... Rompe el silencio tras demanda de Hall

Published | Updated

Compasión y apoyo es lo que hay en la mente de John Oates después de haber sido sensacionalmente abofeteado con una orden de restricción de su excompañero de banda Daryl Hall la semana pasada.

El cantante de 75 años rompió su silencio después de la confusión legal, con una selfie para el Día de Acción de Gracias el jueves, en la que animó a todos a ir un poco más allá para ayudar a los que sufren en todo el mundo, pues él está "tomando el camino más alto", como si estuviera haciendo un críptico llamado a la empatía, ¿verdad?

En el pie de foto escribió: "Durante este tiempo de reflexión comunitaria y conexión con los seres queridos, no nos olvidemos de aquellos que están viviendo desafíos a nivel mundial".

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Oates añadió: "A medida que nos unimos, consideren dar una mano para apoyar a los necesitados, ya sea a través de organizaciones benéficas locales o iniciativas humanitarias internacionales. Que nuestros esfuerzos colectivos contribuyan a un mundo más compasivo y solidario".

Como informamos anteriormente, la larga amistad entre el dúo de rock y soul más grande del mundo se agrió después de que Hall fuera a los tribunales de Nashville el 16 de noviembre para pedir una orden de alejamiento en contra de Oates, la que fue concedida al día siguiente y será efectiva 30 de noviembre.

El expediente está sellado y no hay información disponible al público. Pero nuestras fuentes dicen que la pelea se relaciona con las canciones que puede cantar Oates por su cuenta.

Este último tenía una serie de conciertos programados a principios de este mes, pero los dos más recientes, del 9 y 10 de noviembre, fueron cancelados y reprogramados para el próximo año y no está claro el motivo.

Parece que Oates va a tomar un descanso de los escenarios por un tiempo, o al menos hasta que se resuelvan los asuntos entre la pareja.

Aunque con Hall criticando a Oates en el podcast "Club Random" de Bill Maher el año pasado, en el que dijo que Oates era su socio estrictamente "de negocios" y NO uno "creativo", la tensión se ha estado gestando por un tiempo y evidentemente hay un largo camino antes de que lleguen a una tregua.

Kobe Bryant Uniform From Final NBA Road Game ... Expected To Bring In $500k+ At Auction!

Published | Updated

Kobe Bryant's full uniform -- from the jersey on his back to the Nikes on his feet -- worn by the NBA legend during the final road game of his historic career is now up for auction ... and the items are expected to rake in over half a million bucks!

SCP Auctions has some awesome Mamba merch on the block this time around (game-used and signed basketball from his 61-point performance at MSG, championship ring gifted to KB's dad) ... including Bryant's shorts, jersey, and kicks from the Lakers vs. Thunder game at Chesapeake Bay Arena in Oklahoma City on April 11, 2016, Kobe's 677th and last regular season away game.

Bryant, who along with his Lakers teammates were on the second leg of a back-to-back, scored 13 points that night ... entirely in the first quarter. Kobe, battling fatigue and stiffness due to injury, couldn't get going offensively the rest of the game (LAL lost 112-79), though not for a lack of effort, even going one-on-one with a much younger Kevin Durant.

The 4XL Adidas purple mesh official NBA jersey, adorned with Kob's iconic number 24, are being sold together as a package with the 3XL Adidas Climacool shorts.

Cool tidbit ... the shorts contain a small microphone pocket so Bryant could be mic'd up while playing.

The jersey and shorts have been photo-matched by two industry leaders (Resolution Photomatching and Sports Investors), according to SCP ... where experts painstakingly examine high-resolution photos, along with the items, looking for unique characteristics.

Authenticators determined Kobe not only wore the shorts in OKC, but on 9 other occasions during the final months of his emotional farewell season.

As for the sneakers, Kobe's own sized-14 Nike Kobe 11 Elite Lows are also on the auction block! The shoes show signs consistent with being used in one game (meaning they're in good shape!)

SCP expects the uniform (shorts and jersey) to sell for upwards of $500K ... meanwhile, the sneakers are expected to bring in around $100 grand!

It's easy to see the pieces going for exorbitant prices when you consider the possibility that this is the last ever game-worn memorabilia to hit the open market ... as it was Kobe's second to last game.

Of course, on April 13, 2016, two days after the OKC game, Bryant dropped 60 points in a comeback win over the Utah Jazz at the Staples Center ... one of the finest farewell performances in sports history.

That uniform is presumably held by the Bryant family, and it's hard to imagine them ever letting go of that uniform.

Kob's last-ever road game uniform and sneakers auction ends December 2!

Diddy Sued by Third Woman for Rape, Choking

Published | Updated

UPDATE

9:40 AM PT -- A spokesperson for Diddy tells TMZ ... "These are civil suits with fabricated claims of misconduct from over 30 years ago, which are nothing but a blatant money grab. Mr. Combs is being unfairly targeted by anonymous accusers who lie for financial gain. The New York Legislature never intended the Adult Survivors Act to be exploited."

Diddy has been sued a third time for alleged sexual assault and this time a third person is allegedly involved.

The new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, was filed anonymously -- by a Jane Doe -- who claims Diddy and singer-songwriter Aaron Hall took turns raping her and one of her friends, either in 1990 or 1991.

The lawsuit alleges the woman and her friend met Diddy at a record event, and Diddy and Hall began flirting with them, buying them drinks during the evening.

The woman claims Diddy and Hall took the woman to Hall's apartment, where she was offered more alcohol and then coerced into having sex with Diddy. She says she was traumatized, and then as she lay in the bed, Hall allegedly came in, pinned her down and raped her.

She says her friend was also raped by both men.

She says a few days later, Combs went to the woman's home and became enraged ... “He was irate and began assaulting and choking Jane Doe to the point that she passed out. Combs was searching for Jane Doe’s friend because he was worried that she would tell the girl he was with at the time what he and Hall had done to them.”

The New York lawsuit, first reported by Rolling Stone, claims she went to doctors and told her family and friends about what happened.

NEW ALLEGATIONS

As you know, Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy last week, alleging, among other things, rape and human trafficking. The case settled the day after it was filed for an undisclosed amount.

As for the second lawsuit, a rep told us ... "This last-minute lawsuit is an example of how a well-intentioned law can be turned on its head. Ms. Dickerson's 32-year-old story is made up and not credible. Mr. Combs never assaulted her and she implicates companies that did not exist. This is purely a money grab and nothing more."

Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo Sued for Sexual Harassment by Former Executive Assistant

Published

Former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo has been sued for sexual assault in New York by his former executive assistant Brittany Commisso, a claim which Cuomo has vehemently denied.

Commisso got in under the wire on New York's sexual assault law, which expired on Thanksgiving Day, essentially repeating claims that date back to 2021 ... that Cuomo attempted to engage in sexual acts with her and sexually harassed her. She alleged he made unwelcome sexual advances and sexualized comments about her appearance.

She also alleges she was the subject of "humiliating and demeaning tasks, hugs, kisses, sexual touching of the buttocks and forcible touching of the breast."

MEDIA MANIPULATION

Cuomo has denied all Brittany's claims in the past and recently appeared on episode of "Real Time with Bill Maher," and, along with an author who wrote a book about the case, claimed the New York Times was targeting him and ignored obvious problems with her allegations.

A criminal court in Albany dismissed a misdemeanor criminal complaint of forcible touching against Cuomo in early 2022.

BRITNEY SPEARS CORDIAL WITH SAM ASGHARI ... Divorce Settlement Imminent

Published | Updated

Things between Britney Spears and her ex Sam Asghari are no longer toxic after a turbulent few months ... with their divorce settlement almost finalized.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the duo is now cordial off the back of their divorce bombshell, with the fitness trainer still living it up in the L.A. high-rise. financed by Britney to the tune of $10k a month.

Our sources tell us Brit will soon be signing away a pretty sweet check to Sam to finalize their divorce -- low 6 figures, we're told.

Sam filed for divorce from Britney in August ... with chatter emerging that his lawyer, Neal Hersh, would contest his ex's rock-solid prenup -- although that never happened.

But, with their split playing out in the public eye, they did totally shut down all communication -- with sources linked to the estranged pair telling us they were leaving it up to their legal teams to handle everything.

As a result, there was growing concern for the star's well-being, because Sam was her main support system amid her estrangement from her family.

But, with the pair back on amicable terms ... here's hoping they let bygones be bygones and forge a friendship going forward.

Britney Spears Es cordial con Sam Asghari En medio de inminente acuerdo de divorcio

Published

Las cosas entre Britney Spears y su ex Sam Asghari ya no son "tóxicas" después de unos meses turbulentos y un acuerdo de divorcio inminente.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que el dúo ha sido cordial después de que develaran la bomba de su divorcio. El entrenador físico sigue viviendo en el rascacielos de L.A. financiado por Britney de $10k al mes.

Nuestras fuentes nos dicen que Brit pronto firmará un cheque bastante suculento para finalizar su divorcio con Sam, de 6 números.

Sam le pidió el divorcio a Britney en agosto y había rumores de que su abogado, Neal Hersh, impugnaría el sólido acuerdo prenupcial, pero por suerte eso no ha sucedido.

Con su separación en el ojo público, la ex pareja decidió cortar toda comunicación y dejar que sus equipos legales manejen todo lo que sigue por delante, según nos cuentan fuentes vinculadas a ellos.

Como resultado, hubo una creciente preocupación por el bienestar de Britney, ya que Sam era su principal red de apoyo dado el distanciamiento de la cantante con su familia.

Pero con la pareja de nuevo en términos amistosos, hay una esperanza de que lo pasado, pisado está y ambos puedan forjar una amistad en el futuro.

JFk Assassination Bloody Limo Leather Sells for $46,000

John F. Kennedy was assassinated 60 years ago, and even all these years later -- folks are fascinated by the story ... and some are willing to pay big bucks for morbid memorabilia.

Some items tied to the case recently hit the auction block through RR Auction, and a handful of 'em went for a pretty penny -- we're talking five figures here. One particular JFK collectible that sold for a helluva lot included swatches of bloodstained leather ... from the limo.

Indeed ... 2 large patches that were cut straight from inside the car where President Kennedy was shot -- and which were covered in his bodily fluids -- ended up going for a ton of dough. The final amount ... $46,865!

There were other keepsakes that went for a high dollar amount ... like Lee Harvey Oswald's personally-owned revolver ($31k) and even the bullet Jack Ruby fired at LHO ($18k).

Some other standouts, however, are a little quirkier -- such as a section of the picket fence that was lining the infamous grassy knoll that's been at the center of JFK assassination conspiracy theories for years ... and these old sticks fetched a whopping $13,740.

Another highlight ... Oswald's jail phone call receipt from the Dallas jail he was held at in the aftermath. It shows he he was trying to call an attorney in New York, but was never able to reach him -- something he actually paid for before getting shot and killed.

It's the case file that keeps on giving ... and there's no shortage of super fans obsessed with all things JFK. That much is clear with these final sales prices.

La ex estrella de la NFL NaVorro Bowman hizo algunas compras mucho antes de que empiece la temporada navideña de este año. El ex jugador visitó una tienda Prada en el área de DC a principios de este mes y gastó una pequeña fortuna.
