It turns out Ariana Grande's message to her viral look-alike is legit ... TMZ has confirmed its authenticity.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the message is real ... meaning Ari DID reach out to Paige Niemann, the girl who's made a name for herself by making herself up to look like the pop star.

As we previously reported, Paige shared the DM she got from AG in her new "Turning The Paige" docuseries.

A little nugget about Taylor Swift's wedding dress is being teased by Dior ... and it's enough to get Swifties in a tizzy.

A rep for the designer says Taylor -- and only Taylor -- will reveal the dress she wore for her wedding to Travis Kelce ... and she'll lift the curtain in an Instagram post ... when she's ready.

The New York Times was also told the dress is a custom piece that didn't debut on Dior’s fall 2026 couture runway, despite fans' theories.

However, the designer teased ... Taylor's dress could be a "sibling" of a style that was featured.

Robin Antin is opening up about the devastating loss of Lauren Bennett, sharing an emotional tribute to the late singer ... and remembering Lauren as far more than a collaborator and former protégé.

The Pussycat Dolls founder took to social media to honor Lauren, revealing the two had been inseparable since they first met when Lauren was just 16 years old.

Robin says Lauren was her "beautiful best friend," her chosen sister and creative partner ... explaining how they became family over the years while chasing dreams, performing together and building unforgettable memories.

A woman invited to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding was seeing "Red" when her music producer husband told her he deleted the invitation ... all because he thought it was spam!

Oh boy, get ready to cringe, Swifties ... because this "Red" producer -- named Garret -- totally mistook the text that contained Taylor's wedding invite for an attempt at hacking his phone and just straight up deleted it ... missing out on the biggest wedding of the century!

As you can imagine, Garret's wife, Melissa, was LIVID ... and she laid it all out in an essay for HuffPost.

When she asked her husband why he would delete an invite to Taylor's big wedding, he told her ... "I got a text but I thought it was spam ... Remember I told you I got a text from her manager? But I didn't respond to it. It didn't sound like him."

Black Sabbath Drummer Bill Ward has announced he's mostly confined to a wheelchair at this point in his life -- but he tells fans he's still one hell of a drummer!

The 87-year-old musician shared the life update on X Wednesday, telling fans they will be seeing him in a wheelchair in public more because although he can walk, he "can’t walk very far without needing to rest."

He explained, "We started using the wheelchair about 18 months ago, mostly in airports. I became 78 years old on May 5th 2026. I was a long distance walker, I’ve walked in many different parts of the world, and I’m still a drummer.  I can still play pretty good for 78 years old."

Guess this Wolf is on the hunt for cougars ... that's what Dylan Wolf is doing when it comes to Bunnie XO.

We got the 24-year-old "Calabasas Confidential" star leaving Barney's Beanery in WEHO on Wednesday night, and -- of course -- we had to ask him about his seemingly ongoing fling with 46-year-old Bunnie and their July 4th makeout sesh in Nashville.

Dylan puts it like this ... "Sometimes a cowboy wants to hunt cougars."

The dude was wearing a cowboy hat as he got all philosophical ... and he also told us he's got a lot of love for both Bunnie and her estranged husband, Jelly Roll, and respects that they have "a lot going on right now."

Bonnie Tyler -- the legendary Welsh singer and 3-time Grammy nominee -- has died ... according to her manager.

Bonnie's manager, Matt Davis, tells TMZ her family and team "are heartbroken to announce that Bonnie unexpectedly passed away" Wednesday night in a hospital in Portugal "as a result of the illness that she was being treated for."

Tyler's death comes after she needed emergency surgery and was hospitalized in Portugal. Doctors put her into a medically induced coma to help with her recovery.

They don't call Paris the City of Love for nothing ... because Cardi B may have a new man ... he's an international soccer star, and her fans seem to be all for it!!!

Check out this TikTok video from a Paris Fashion Week event ... the guy beside Cardi is Nigerian soccer goalkeeper Maduka Okoye ... and on top of making Bardi fans blush, he's quite the gentleman, helping her take a seat beside him.

Is this hunk of a man enough to get into the rapper's good graces? We'll have to see! But Cardi fans definitely don't hate the idea ... they've taken to social media to gush over the guy and are pointing out how comfortable the two look together.

Shia LaBeouf is calling out his ex-girlfriend FKA Twigs for trashing him in court filings … claiming her agreement to settle her previous lawsuit over alleged abuse means she now has to handle all that business in private arbitration, not a public courtroom.

In court docs, obtained by TMZ, Shia claims FKA is attempting to invalidate the confidentiality provisions in their 2025 deal … which barred them from trash-talking the other.

The actor said FKA has made "numerous inflammatory and irrelevant accusations" in her lawsuit … and believes she wants to continue slamming him in public through the court filings.

"Calabasas Confidential" star Dylan Wolf says his make out session with Bunnie XO at Jelly Roll's Nashville bar wasn't a shot at her estranged husband ... and he says things between them aren't that serious.

We got the 24-year-old Netflix reality star in Los Angeles Wednesday, and our photog asked all about the kissing video ... with Dylan telling us Bunnie is a "great friend."

Dylan insists there's no romance involved and the two were just having a fun time celebrating America's 250th birthday.

Lauren Bennett most likely died by suicide, or at least that's how police are viewing her death ... TMZ has learned.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... authorities investigating the singer's May 29 death in the United Kingdom are treating the case as a suspected suicide.

As TMZ previously reported, the investigation remains ongoing and could take until October before it's formally concluded.

Bunnie XO looks like she's hungry for reality star Dylan Wolf ... because the pair went out again ... just one night after sucking face at Jelly Roll's Nashville bar ... and only TMZ has the photos.

Check out the snaps ... Bunnie and Dylan were hanging out late Sunday night ... laughing and getting all close and cuddly.

The outing came just one night after they were together on the Fourth of July, when they made out at her estranged husband's bar.

Sunday's setting seemed intimate enough -- certainly much more isolated than when we caught these two in Jelly's bar -- but this time Bunnie and Dylan were with a group ... although it looks like they still managed to get some alone time.

Cardi B's painting the town red over in Paris ... because she's wearing a sexy red dress at the Robert Wun Haute Couture Fall/Winter show for Paris Fashion Week.

Check out the photos ... the "Bodak Yellow" rapper is showing off her red bottoms ... literally.

It's hard not to stop and stare when Cardi's around ... but this just takes the cake.

The bright red and spherical shape of dress and accompanying handbag is oddly satisfying to look at ... accentuating her hips, booty and showing plenty of skin.

Jack Antonoff is keeping the band together ... the hit-making producer was just spotted wearing his wedding ring ... even as reports swirl that he and Margaret Qualley have separated.

The Bleachers frontman was photographed Wednesday morning near his Brooklyn home while out grabbing coffee and walking a dog with his sister, Rachel Antonoff.

Dressed in a New York Knicks championship T-shirt and holding his phone, Jack looked relaxed ... and one detail stood out in the new pics -- his gold wedding band was still firmly on his ring finger.

It's an interesting visual ... considering Jack and Margaret are reportedly calling it quits after three years of marriage.

9:16 AM PT -- Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff have separated after 3 years of marriage, according to a new report.

Margaret Qualley scrubbed her wedding day photos from her social media ... a move that is stirring more speculation that there's trouble in paradise between her and Jack Antonoff.

It's not clear when she removed the pics ... but Margaret was noticeably absent from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding celebrations last weekend, even though Jack was there -- leading to the split speculation.

Some folks think Margaret was MIA because she's working on the new flick "King Snake" ... but others claimed production wrapped a little while back ... and now she's seemingly removing any trace of Jack from her Instagram.
