Sharon Tate is about to be resurrected in spectacular fashion in Quentin Tarantino's new movie, thanks to Margot Robbie ... so says Sharon's sister, who watched the action on the closed set.

Debra Tate says QT's flick "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" -- which centers around the murders of her sibling and her friends at the hands of the Manson Family -- is magnificent because Margot is capturing all the nuances from the slain actress.

It's a hell of an Oscar pitch. Debra says Margot's taking the role incredibly seriously ... and it shows from what she's seen firsthand on set. And, of course, the resemblance is uncanny.

There's also this ... Debra says all the A-listers attached -- including Leo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Al Pacino, just to name a few -- are actually super friendly in real life. How 'bout that?!

Debra had previously bashed Tarantino and his cast for not reaching out to her for her blessing, but that's all changed. She came out fully supporting the movie late last month ... and it sounds like the film has come to exceed her expectations since then.

Tyrese is dipping DEEP into his piggy bank, so deep there's nary a cent left to cover his ex-wife's attorney fees ... according to his financial records.

Tyrese just filed docs responding to Norma Gibson's request for him to pay for her divorce attorney, and they reveal some serious monthly expenses. According to the docs, Tyrese says he's dropping about nearly $114k each month for his mortgage, child care, groceries, utilities and $10k in child support payments to Norma.

Here's where that number becomes a problem -- Tyrese says in the docs he's only bringing in $51k on average each month. Doesn't take a math genius to see he's in the red. In fact, he says his savings have dwindled from $800k in cash last November to just $130k now.

Sylvester Stallone and his beautiful family were soaking up the sun in Baja California ... hitting another vacation hot spot during the Summer of Sly.

Sly and his daughter, Sistine, kicked off their Mexican beach vacay with a dip in the hot tub and some sunbathing in Cabo San Lucas. That's 20-year-old Sistine in the white bikini. As they say south of the border -- que linda!

The Stallones have been stamping their passports this summer ... looking hot on a yacht in the French Riviera.

Tab Hunter -- the 1950s heartthrob actor -- died after his heart gave out but, according to his death certificate, he was also battling a debilitating disease ... prostate cancer.

According to the doc -- obtained by TMZ -- Tab died from cardiogenic shock ... which is when the blood suddenly can't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Another contributing factor to his death was a massive pulmonary embolism. The doc also says he had prostate cancer.

As we reported ... the actor known for his surfer-boy looks and roles in "Damn Yankees" and "The Burning Hills" died last month -- 3 days shy of his birthday -- at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital.

Tab always felt he would have been blackballed from Hollywood if people had discovered he was gay, so he later revealed in his memoirs that he had studio setup relationships with women.

Tab was 86.

Lindsay Lohan is backtracking on some eyebrow-raising comments she made about #MeToo -- calling women who speak out as looking "weak" -- and is setting the record straight.

LiLo issued a statement Sunday apologizing for her remarks and any harm inflicted. She says ... "The quote solely related to my hope that a handful of false testimonies out of a tsunami of heroic voices do not serve to dilute the importance of the #MeToo movement, and all of us who champion it."

She continues ... "However, I have since learned how statements like mine are seen as hurtful, which was never my intent. I’m sorry for any pain I may have caused."

The original comment came out recently in a Times interview, in which she criticized some women for coming out with their stories of sexual abuse way after the fact -- rather than address it in the moment -- and added speaking out now made strong women "look weak."

Kanye West just got an offer he might not refuse ... directing a porn movie after giving his fav a shout-out on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

Greg Lansky -- widely considered the Steven Spielberg of porn -- runs a high-end porn production company, including Blacked.com, which also happens to be Kanye's XXX of choice. The rapper said as much to a late night national TV audience.

Didn't take long for Greg to craft an offer and fire it off to Ye ... first thanking him for mentioning Blacked. As for the offer -- let Kanye direct a porn movie. According to the letter -- obtained by TMZ -- Kanye will have full artistic control.

And, how's this for an enticing offer? Greg also has 2 porn stars in mind for Kanye's film.

If the Blacked.com deal doesn't do the trick for Kanye -- Pornhub's got his back (and his front) too -- telling us they'd like to extend a free lifetime membership to the site's HD, on-demand streaming service, Pornhub Premium.

Palm Springs has been a celebrity playground for decades ... and it's also where the former home of Howard Hughes, one of the world's weirdest and wealthiest people, just changed hands.

Hughes' sleek mid-century home has sold for $1.3 million ... not bad for an area that regularly fetches 7 figures.

The 3 bedroom, 3 bath gem was built in 1957 and had been a vacation rental before hitting the market for the first time in decades.

Whoever bought it now has a home with a rich celeb history ... it was previously owned by actress Eva Gabor and comedy writer Paul Keyes. Legendary film producer (and cocaine trafficker) Robert Evans chose it for his honeymoon. The home was once a fave vacation spot for Smokey Robinson.

Check out the vintage bathrooms, master bedroom complete with fireplace and the sprawling back deck that looks like it belongs on a cruise ship!

It appears 'Ace Ventura' actress Sean Young was brazen in her alleged burglary ... loading up an SUV with gear in broad daylight.

Young was allegedly caught on surveillance video outside an NYC production set Thursday with an unidentified male. You can see in the video -- obtained by TMZ -- it appears Young certainly doesn't seem to be in any rush ... taking her time while loading up.

TMZ broke the story ... Young was wanted by the NYPD for questioning after she allegedly took 2 Apple laptops and video production software, worth about $12,000, from a set where she was allegedly fired from months ago.

Angelina Jolie is sounding the alarm ... all is not well in the money department.

TMZ broke the story, Brad Pitt loaned his estranged wife $8 million to buy a house ... a little weird for an actress who has raked in millions for years.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us, Brad's income and net worth far, far exceed Angelina's ... it's not even close.

Fact is ... Angelina has not made money an issue in her divorce until several weeks ago, when she asked a judge for a formal child support agreement. As we reported, Brad has paid Angelina $1.3 million in support over the last 2 years and she didn't complain until late last month.

Our sources say Brad and Angelina don't have a prenup, which means anything they earned while they were married is a 50/50 split. That benefits Angelina, but the problem is ... they married in 2014.

Brad made more than her throughout their relationship, which began in 2004. The only way Angelina could get a cut of Brad's income from 2004 - 2014 is if she could prove they had an agreement that he would support her.

We're told she's talking about filing such a claim. But sources connected to Brad say that's laughable, because they were both extremely rich and such a promise wasn't necessary and never made.

What's super interesting ... Angelina and Brad delayed tying the knot until gay marriage became legal in California. Brad made that statement in 2006, and it took 8 more years for them to finally walk down the aisle. Had they married in 2006 she'd be entitled to millions more in community property.

Ronda Rousey took some time away from murdering WWE wrestlers to light up the red carpet at the premiere of her new movie "Mile 22" on Thursday ... and she was straight fire.

The UFC Hall of Famer had been working on the action flick with Mark Wahlberg since last year -- and was stoked about the premiere in Westwood ... where she rocked a black strapless jumpsuit with some cheetah pattern stilettos.

Ronda has previously told us she thinks the flick has real Oscar potential -- and hopes it can help her fulfill her Hollywood dream of starring in "Kill Bill 3" ... if Quentin Tarantino decides to make it!

8/14 -- Young tells TMZ that she had set up a time to pick up her personal belongings from an apartment where she was staying, and had let herself into the apartment at the agreed-upon time. She states, "I gathered what I believed to be my property but later discovered I was mistaken."

She claims she has since tried to return the 2 laptops, but has been unable to do so. She adds, "I have not been contacted by the police or any lawyers regarding this matter."

Sean Young -- who famously played Lt. Lois Einhorn/Ray Finkle in 'Ace Ventura' -- is wanted for questioning by the NYPD after she was allegedly caught on surveillance video stealing laptops and video production software.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ they were called to a commercial location in Astoria, Queens Thursday for a burglary. We're told employees at the location turned surveillance footage over to cops that allegedly showed Young and a male breaking in and stealing the gear.

Cops say two Apple laptops and video production software, worth about $12,000, were taken. We're told Young allegedly worked at the location at one point, but was fired months ago.

You was a huge star back in the '80s -- starring in movies like "Stripes," "Blade Runner" and "Dune" ... and broke out in the '90s playing Jim Carrey's "Captain Winkie-havin'" nemesis in "Ace Ventura."

Kesha's making a name for herself in a new field -- the wedding officiant biz -- and she just booked another couple of happy clients.

The singer was at the premiere of her new documentary, "Rainbow: The Film," at Metrograph theater in NYC Thursday night when a couple approached her and asked if she'd marry them ... and she said she'd love to!

This isn't just all talk from Kesha either -- not only did she hook the ladies up with her scheduling peeps ... but she's got a happy history of officiating same-sex weddings. She's already done 3.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth found a great way to beat the heat, and the silly rumors they're splitting up ... they broke bread together.

Miley and Liam were spotted together Thursday on a lunch date at Aeirloom Bakery in Toluca Lake. Unclear if they hit up a nearby hiking trail, but good guess is they didn't, based on Miley's footwear. Either way ... they looked pretty relaxed taking a break from the hot and muggy L.A. weather.

'Star Trek' icon Nichelle Nichols has been diagnosed with dementia and the disease has progressed.

According to docs filed in Nichelle's conservatorship, Dr. Meena Makhijani -- who specializes in osteopathic medicine -- says Nichols has been a patient of hers for the last 2-3 years ... and she has "moderate progressive dementia."

Makhijani gives details of the severity of the disease by rating various cognitive functions. Most alarming ... she says Nichols has major impairment of her short-term memory and moderate impairment of understanding abstract concepts, sense of time, place and immediate recall.

On the bright side, the doctor says there's no apparent impairment for things like long-term memory, orientation of her body, comprehension, verbal communication, concentration, recognition of familiar people, as well as ability to reason logically and plan actions.

As we reported ... Nichelle's son recently had 4 fiduciaries assigned to her as conservators to prevent her from being taken advantage of by people close to her.

The Anthony Anderson and Steven Seagal assault investigations have been turned over to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the cases were sent over Wednesday by the LAPD for review.

As for Anderson, a woman went to police earlier this year claiming the "Black-ish" actor assaulted her. We do not know specifics, although he strongly denied her claim.

Seagal's been hit with multiple sexual misconduct allegations over the last few months.

You'll recall, two women came forward back in March with accusations against Seagal. One claimed he raped her at his home in 1993 and the other says in 2002, when she was just 17, Seagal pinched her nipples, slid his hand under her bikini and touched her vagina during an audition.

Seagal was also accused of sexual misconduct by Portia de Rossi, who claims he put her on a casting couch and unzipped his leather pants. Julianna Margulies claims in a hotel meeting with Seagal in the '80s, the actor brandished a gun but never touched her before she fled.

The Academy adding a "popular" category to the Oscars has a lot of people riled up, including this guy -- who's got a movie coming out that could win -- and he's all for it.

We spoke to actor Page Kennedy on "TMZ Live" a day before his and Jason Statham's blockbuster film, "The Meg," is set to hit theaters -- where they're battling a prehistoric, humongous great white shark -- and he gave us his take on the controversy.

Page says films like his -- and other popcorn flicks like 'Mission: Impossible,' 'Fate of the Furious,' etc. -- deserve to be recognized for their badassery ... plain and simple. He says these types of movies have just as much value as traditional Oscar noms ... and could even add a much-needed shot of life into an award show that's gathering dust in the ratings.
