Money

Miami Beach's Spring Break crackdown is already hitting local businesses hard -- and they're sounding off to TMZ about just how much it's really costing them.

Dan Binkiewicz, who co-owns Sweet Liberty Drinks and Supply Co., tells TMZ last summer was one of their worst, and things aren't looking up for this season either. With the new rules cutting down on guests, he says businesses are getting crushed, and many of them might not make it.

Josh Wallack, who co-runs Mango's Tropical Cafe, tells TMZ they used to live for Spring Break -- it was the highlight of the year. Now? It's a mess. He says the lack of visitors is also causing a domino effect, with servers and bartenders losing out on pay 'cause of those early curfews.

Super Bowl LIX is almost here -- and while you could put money down on the point spread or over/under, wouldn't bettin' on boobs be so much more fun?!

With the Chiefs and the Eagles about to square off for the Lombardi Trophy, BetOnline revealed a whole gang of entertaining prop bets for prospective wagerers.

Peep some of the most interesting:

Olivia Newton-John's Santa Ynez ranch is set to be a new owner's "Xanadu" ... the striking property has officially sold after several months on the market.

Real estate sources tell TMZ ... a buyer has decided to be hopelessly devoted to the 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom estate located in Santa Barbara County -- one of California's famed wine regions.

Whoever walked away with the deed certainly got one hell of a deal, as the property was initially listed back in May for a whopping $8.965 million ... and it just sold for $7.95M.

One of the most recognizable homes in pop culture is hitting the market -- Kris Jenner is selling her family's longtime residence ... made famous on their hit reality show.

The Hidden Hills mansion that served as the home base for "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" is hitting the market ... and Kris is asking $13.5 million for this piece of reality TV history.

The 6-bedroom home is 8,860 square feet and it's instantly recognizable to 'KUWTK' fans who all remember the black-and-white checkered floor in the foyer, the kitchen table where the family shared so many meals, and the backyard where the Kardashians hosted their lavish parties.

Ippei Mizuhara was officially sentenced to 57 months in prison on Thursday ... after fessing up to swindling millions from Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani.

Mizuhara's fate was determined in a Santa Ana, California court just minutes ago -- not only has he been sentenced to four years and some change behind bars, but he was also ordered to pay $18 million in restitution -- nearly $17 million to Ohtani and another $1.1 million to the IRS.

The former Angels and Dodgers employee pleaded guilty to one count of bank fraud and one count of tax fraud back in June 2024 ... owning up to taking the money from Ohtani's bank account to clear his debts with bettors.

Jeremy Piven's been hit with an unwanted role ... as an L.A. burglary victim, TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... last Friday, around 10 PM, the "Entourage" star -- who played Ari Gold in the award-winning series -- came home to find his upstairs glass door smashed at his Los Angeles-area home.

We're told thieves ransacked Jeremy’s bedroom, making off with about $200,000 worth of rings, watches and other jewelry.

Ben Stiller is setting the record straight about his humanitarian trip to Ukraine ... denying he ever received any payment from USAID to visit the war-torn country.

Elon Musk pushed out a purported E! News video on X yesterday, which alleged a number of celebrities -- including Stiller, Angelina Jolie, Orlando Bloom and Sean Penn -- were sent to Ukraine, paid for with American taxpayers' money. The video has been proven fake.

But the fake video picked up steam on social media thanks to countless retweets from Trump supporters, including Donald Trump Jr. and Scott Baio

Ben Affleck is ready to bid his Brentwood mansion goodbye ... and move into a "super high-end" and "massively private" crib, TMZ has learned.

Sources tell us ... Ben had been eyeing the new property for a while -- and it seems he pulled the trigger and bought it last year.

There is a slight snag of sorts -- the new pad is still under construction, but as soon as it's ready, Ben will bounce from his current Brentwood digs.

Kanye West may have a method to his madness when it comes to his wife Bianca Censori's barely-there style ... because he's now shilling her nearly-nude bodysuit for an affordable price.

Check it out ... after Ye and Bianca made a splash on the Grammys red carpet with BC's literal naked dress, the rap mogul pushed out a commercial on TV encouraging fans to check out his Yeezy website.

The site features a number of streetwear looks, including sweatshirts, boxers, shirts, socks, hoodies ... and one sheer bodysuit identical to the one Bianca wore to the Grammys after-party.

L.A.'s FireAid benefit show was a raging success ... raising serious cash to help those hit hard by the wildfires that tore through the city last month.

Since Thursday night’s 6-hour concert, it's estimated more than $100 million has been raised for victims, fire prevention efforts, and for L.A.'s immediate needs and long-term recovery -- and donations are still rolling in.

According to the FireAid team, the $100 mil includes ticket sales from both venues, sponsorships, merch sales, public donations, plus private gifts from the Azoff family, the Eagles, Andrew Hauptman, Ellen Bronfman Hauptman, and U2.

Super Bowl ticket prices are tumbling ... but slow your roll, normies -- they're not quite affordable for the average Joe just yet.

According to Gametime -- a ticket resale app -- get-in prices for this weekend's Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles matchup are trending downward.

The lowest ticket cost is $4,339 -- and while that's a small fortune to most ... it is down from $5,860 last Friday and from $6,375 on Jan. 27.

Americans are having a shell of a hard time keeping up with soaring egg prices ... but Chef Andrew Zimmern has a solution -- look at foreign breakfast menus for some inspiration.

TMZ caught up with the four-time James Beard Award-winning chef and TV personality ... and he thinks a no-brainer way to save some dollars is to quit the "egg-laden" American breakfast and try out some swaps from cultures that don't necessarily use eggs as a staple of their diets.

Zimmern specifically applauds Japan and Italy for having filling breakfasts without eggs. The Asian country incorporates grilled fish, rice, pickles and soup into their morning meals ... while Italians reach for meat, cheese and toast, with some ricotta and jam.

JoJo Siwa just sold her Tarzana mansion -- and she’s twirling away with a tidy profit!

The former "Dance Moms" star just scored $4.1 mil for her 6-bed, 7-bath mansion -- a little more than the $3.99M she listed it for right before Christmas.

No surprise this 6,462-square-foot pad got snatched up -- it’s packed with all the Cali-living essentials: a pool, spa, entertainment room, bar, and even a sports court.

A super rare Allen Iverson card just sold for a WHOPPING $701,500 at auction ... obliterating the previous record for an A.I. collectible!

The 1997 Skybox E-X 2001 Essential Credentials Now card -- graded a five by PSA -- was sold by Heritage Auctions on Saturday for nearly three-quarters of a million dollars, making the card the highest-selling Iverson piece ever.

The previous record was around $80K ... which has now been shattered.

Christine Baumgartner's rocking her engagement ring publicly for the first time since the big yes to Josh Connor ... showing off that shiny new bling as they headed out for a walk.

Peep the pics -- Christine’s ring is sparkling bright as she cozies up to Josh on a romantic stroll, proving she’s in a much better place less than a year after wrapping up her bitter divorce from Kevin Costner.

Josh, who was once a mutual pal of Kevin’s, made it clear once and for all, he’s all Team Christine now, with his arm casually draped around her and hers around his back -- with that fancy ring front and center.

The Monday morning commute ain't going over easy in L.A., where hundreds of eggs -- already a precious commodity -- are scattered on a busy freeway after a messy delivery truck accident.

The scene on the 5 Freeway in East L.A. is enough to bring tears to your eyes ... not because of the traffic, but because all those eggs are going to waste! CHP officers, who scrambled to the scene, say the truck clipped an overpass, sending the eggs flying across the lanes.

The crash whipped up plenty of looky-loo traffic from drivers who -- in addition to being late for work -- have the added pain of knowing they're gonna pay about $9 for a dozen eggs on their next grocery store trip.
