Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's daughter Zahara is making moves in court to officially drop her famous dad's last name amid their estrangement ... TMZ has learned.

TMZ obtained a petition Zahara filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, where she asked for her new legal name to be "Zahara Marley Jolie."

The 18-year-old did not provide any reasoning in her paperwork, but she has not been close to her dad in years. Zahara hasn't been using Brad's last name for a while now, but it now appears she wants the change to be legal. In Touch was the first to report the news.

'Scary Movie' star Anna Faris says a joke she liked about Melania Trump was cut from the film ... which had some folks wondering if politics were in play amid a major Hollywood merger ... but TMZ is told that's NOT the case.

Here's the deal ... Anna said in a recent interview there was a moment in the new 'Scary Movie' where her character mocked Melania's “Be Best” initiative to combat cyberbullying.

Production sources tell TMZ ... the Melania joke was among several filmmakers cut in post-production for pacing ... and it's as simple and routine as that.

It's safe to say Jennifer Lopez isn't settling for the bare minimum when it comes to romance ... 'cause if you're planning to slide into her DMs, don't bother.

J Lo was on "Watch What Happens Live" when Andy Cohen asked her whether a guy could shoot his shot by messaging her on Instagram ... and her answer came fast -- a hard "no."

Actor Anthony Guidera -- known for his roles in "The Godfather Part III" and "Species" -- has died after his heart suddenly stopped, TMZ confirmed.

His wife, Valarie, tells TMZ ... on May 11, the couple was in the living room of their Southern California home when Anthony collapsed, and his heart stopped beating.

Valarie said Anthony was rushed to the hospital, where he was put on life support for 3 weeks. Doctors then took him off life support, per his prior directive, so he could be brought him home for a natural death.

Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater have been quietly broken up for several months ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the former couple tell TMZ ... the split is amicable and the two still remain friends and are very supportive of one another. We're told they gave the breakup careful consideration but ultimately decided to end the romantic relationship.

Our sources tell us Ariana's new album was not at all inspired by the breakup, nor is the music about her relationship with Ethan.

Jason Biggs and Jenny Mollen look like they really are on great terms despite their separation ... 'cause the estranged couple just stepped out together for the first time since announcing their split.

The two were spotted in New York City over the weekend, heading out for a family dinner with a larger group ... enjoying good food, good company, and what looked like an easygoing night out together.

Jason and Jenny announced their separation last month after 18 years of marriage, with a rep telling us they were on great terms with zero drama ... and that still appears to be the case ... they appeared totally comfortable in each other's presence on this outing.

Crispin Glover is firing back at the ex-girlfriend who accused him of turning her into a "sex slave" ... claiming her lawsuit is a money-motivated attack built on false allegations.

The "Back to the Future" star filed new court docs, obtained by TMZ, asking a judge to strike part of his ex's lawsuit ... and he's offering a dramatically different version of what happened between them.

As TMZ previously reported, the woman sued Crispin in February, alleging he lured her from the UK to Los Angeles with promises of a new life and career in Hollywood before using her as a live-in girlfriend, unpaid assistant, and "sex slave." She also claimed he later filed a false police report and sought a fraudulent restraining order against her.

8:53 AM PT -- Sarah Paulson and Ella Beatty were also at the Tony awards together last year.

Sarah Paulson and Ella Beatty were cute and cozy at the 2026 Tony Awards ... and Holland Taylor was nowhere in sight.

The "All's Fair" star made her grand arrival Sunday night at the Tonys holding hands with Warren Beatty and Annette Bening's 26-year-old daughter.

At one point, the young actress was cheesing while she put her arm around Sarah's waist and turned to whisper something in her ear ... but there was no sign of Sarah's 83-year-old partner Holland.

Sydney Sweeney just proved she's got girlfriend-of-the-year credentials ... throwing a star-studded early birthday bash for boyfriend Scooter Braun.

The "Euphoria" star surprised the music mogul with a massive celebration Saturday night in Santa Monica ... drawing a guest list packed with big names, including Jessica Alba, Tom Hanks, and Rita Wilson ... plus a guest performance from Warren G!!!

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s son Knox Jolie-Pitt went from cap and gown to gloves and kicks in the span of a few hours ... celebrating his high school graduation before stepping into the ring for a Muay Thai fight later that same night.

The 17-year-old surprised classmates and parents during a graduation speech Friday in Los Angeles when he revealed he'd be competing after the ceremony. Knox even joked to the crowd that he was going to "knock 'em" out ... drawing cheers from the audience.

A proud Angelina was spotted snapping photos as her son took the stage ... then later showed up to support him as he traded his diploma for fight gear and squared off against an opponent in the martial arts exhibition.

Are Anna Faris' looks over the years SCARY-hot?!

Here's a 23-year-old Anna in her breakout role as Cindy Campbell, spoofing "Scream" in the 2000 comedy hit "Scary Movie" (left).

And twenty-six years later, Faris is stepping back into Cindy's shoes for the sixth "Scary Movie" -- this time with a new blonde 'do (right).

We know this role cemented her status as a comedy queen, but the question here is:

Good Genes or Good Docs?!

Corey Feldman's divorce may be officially over ... but one financial dispute is still hanging around.

According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, the 'Goonies' star's ex-wife, Courtney Mitchell, is asking a judge to make the former child star cover more than $16,000 in outstanding accounting fees, along with another $3,150 in additional attorney fees tied to their court battle.

Mitchell claims the accountants were brought in during the divorce to get a clearer picture of Corey's finances. According to the filing, Corey agreed in late 2024 to advance money for the work, but alleges the bill was never fully paid. The docs state only $5,000 of the agreed-upon funds were ultimately paid, leaving an outstanding balance of $16,109.50.

As you know, Knox -- the youngest offspring of Brad and Angie, along with his twin sister Vivienne -- has developed a great passion for Muay Thai and is often spotted in intense training sessions in L.A. and at technical tournaments. Vivienne has even shown support by cheering him on at competitions.

He was last seen exiting a Muay Thai class in L.A. on Memorial Day, turning heads with bright orange hair.
