A man in his 40s was pronounced dead at the scene, while six other festivalgoers were rushed to nearby hospitals. Police confirmed one person remains in critical condition.
Senator Mark Kelly says astronauts aren't in a space jam when they let one rip ... telling us passing gas in a full space suit isn't at all like you might imagine.
We caught up with the Democratic Senator from Arizona Thursday in D.C. ... and, he gave us the 4-1-1 on cutting the lunar cheese.
Watch the video ... Kelly -- who's completed four out-of-this-world missions up to the International Space Station -- explains why astronauts on the ISS should feel secure letting a little methane out of their A-S-S.
Gayle King says the abduction of Savannah Guthrie's mom Nancy is weighing heavily on her heart ... and, she's really hoping for a happy resolution.
We caught up with the longtime television host outside the The Fanatics Luncheon -- a pre-Super Bowl event in San Francisco -- Friday ... and we asked her about her peer's missing mother.
King says she's heartsick about the situation ... and she's reached out to send her love and support to Savannah already.
GK says the NBC host hasn't hit her up ... but, she knows she's busy with other issues -- and, she told her in her text she's not expecting a message back.
A floodlight has seemingly been removed from Nancy Guthrie's back door as investigators rake through her property to find clues about her disappearance.
Check out the photo yourself -- a screenshot from a video taken by Fox News on Friday shows a white floodlight on the right side of the Tucson, Arizona home's blue door. On Saturday, footage shows there is no longer a white fixture next to the same door.
It's not explicitly clear why the floodlight was removed ... but as our own Harvey Levin revealed, the writers behind the alleged ransom note TMZ was sent earlier this week wrote about a "destroyed" floodlight.
The home of Nancy Guthrie was buzzing with police activity Friday, with a steady stream of vehicles in and out ... plus a tow truck that was seen hauling away a blue SUV as the search for Nancy continues.
Video shows the truck removing the SUV from Nancy's Tucson, Arizona home during the evening ... hours after authorities were seen taking what appears to be some sort of device from her roof.
It is not clear why officials confiscated the vehicle or what clues could be on Nancy's roof ... but TMZ has reached out to the Pima County Sheriff's Office for more information.
President Trump says the feds are getting closer to cracking the kidnapping case of Savannah Guthrie's mom Nancy... and the FBI may even have a suspect!
Trump shared the bombshell news with reporters on Air Force One Friday night, saying investigators have made real progress in the investigation. And 47 says he's not talking about search results ... he's talking about "solutions" in the case.
And get this ... When a journalist asked if someone had been identified as a suspect, Trump responded, "Yeah. Could be definitive."
Congressman Tim Burchett says he wouldn't know Bad Bunny if the rapper walked up to him and asked to borrow his cell phone ... and the only bad bunny he knows is his pet rabbit, who had sex on Christmas morning in front of his nephew.
We got the Republican representative from Tennessee at the Capitol Hill Club in Washington, D.C., and our photog asked about the Super Bowl LX halftime show performer.
Instead of wading into the BB conversation -- which some folks are pissed the NFL went with him for the Big Game -- Burchett shares a funny story about his late pet rabbit, who was seriously horny.
The stepbrother of Anna Kepner -- who was found asphyxiated during a family cruise vacation -- was arrested this week and appeared in a Florida courthouse Friday to face a judge, TMZ has confirmed.
According to a law enforcement source ... the 16-year-old stepbrother was led by U.S. Marshals into a Miami federal courtroom for an appearance ... but since he's a juvenile, the case was sealed. It's unclear if he has been charged in a federal complaint or indictment.
After his court appearance, the stepbrother was released to the custody of a guardian, according to ABC News.
On November 7, Kepner's body was reportedly discovered inside the cabin she shared with her stepbrother on the Carnival Horizon. She was allegedly asphyxiated after someone put her in a chokehold.
President Trump claims he was as surprised as anyone about the imagery in a video he shared earlier in the day of Barack and Michelle Obama as apes ... but he sure as hell isn't sorry.
Here's the deal ... the president's Truth Social account posted a video depicting the Obamas as apes ... which was met with swift blowback and condemnation on social media and from many on Capitol Hill. The White House initially said the video was fine ... but it was later deleted over all the heat.
Trump was pressed by reporters this afternoon aboard Air Force One ... and he pleaded ignorance, saying all he knew was the video was a commentary on voter fraud -- and had no idea about the Obamas being depicted as apes in the jungle.
The California man facing federal charges for allegedly texting Nancy Guthrie's family about the bitcoin ransom payment has been granted bond by a judge -- and may be outta federal custody in no time.
Derrick Callella, a 42-year-old man from Hawthorne, made his first court appearance Friday afternoon in U.S. District Court in Santa Ana.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Karen E. Scott ordered Callella to be released on $20,000 bond ... and he's been ordered to not to contact the alleged victims or witnesses.
Federal prosecutors claim Callella texted Nancy's daughter Annie and her son-in-law Tommaso Cioni, "Did you get the bitcoin were [sic] waiting on our end for the transaction."
President Trump is posting racist videos taking shots at the Obamas on social media ... and the Obamas are responding by posting loving videos about their relationship.
Barack and Michelle's Obama Foundation seemingly fired back at Trump with a super cute social media post looking back on their love story.

The post comes on the heels of Trump posting a video on his social media platform depicting the Obamas as apes ... which was met with swift blowback and condemnation on social media.
4:20 PM PT -- Mary Coleman, anchor for Arizona-based KOLD 13 News, told CNN Friday ... it seems the new note was written by the person who sent the initial, which TMZ received. She said the new note is shorter than the alleged ransom note -- and there was no mention of a deadline.
As you know, the initial note had two deadlines, one which passed yesterday -- and the second is Monday. The new note appears to be a response to the videos made by the Guthries saying they needed proof of life ... and wanted to communicate directly with their mother's captor(s).
A new communication regarding Nancy Guthrie's abduction was sent to a media outlet in the Tucson area ... though the outlet hasn't said yet what it entails.
KOLD-TV reported they received a new message "regarding the Nancy Guthrie disappearance."
The outlet does not say if it is another ransom letter or what kind of communication it is ... but, they immediately alerted the Pima County Sheriff's Department.
Radio host Tommy Sotomayor says he's not offended in the slightest by President Trump posting a short video depicting Barack and Michelle Obama as apes.
Tommy joined us on "TMZ Live" Friday, and we asked how he felt seeing Trump share a blatantly racist video clip ... and he explained why he thinks Black people shouldn't be outraged.
The radio host's reasoning here was enough for us to stop him right in his tracks for a quick history lesson ... but Tommy really dug his heels in and tried to bring up some other issues ... and the conversation even veered off into colorism.
The alleged ransom letter in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping has a few details offering possible clues about how far away she may have been taken from the Arizona home where she was abducted ... which could indicate the search radius law enforcement is focusing on.
If the letter is legit -- the FBI and Savannah Guthrie have already talked about it publicly -- it offers some clues into where Nancy may be.
There's a demand of millions in bitcoin for Nancy's safe return ... and there's a timeframe for how long it would take Nancy to be returned to Tucson after getting the money.
It seems Nancy would be driven back to Tucson -- getting on a plane would require Real ID, and the jig would be up -- and if you look at a timeframe, you can draw a radius around Tucson and get a feel for where she may be held captive ... a transporting driver wouldn't be speeding, and that helps create the search radius, too.
Tony Hawk's denying he got married on Jeffrey Epstein's infamous private island ... and he's describing the accusation of an association with the dead convicted sex offender "a narrative of nonsense."
FYI ... the pro skateboarder's name popped up in the new tranche of the latest Epstein Files release ... his name came up during a 2024 conversation between a tipster and a threat intake examiner at the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center.
The tipster claimed she'd been trafficked to Epstein's private island, Little Saint James, and said she was there when Hawk got married on the island.
Hawk rejected the claim on Instagram Thursday, detailing where each of his four wedding ceremonies took place. While his third wedding to Lhotse Merriam -- they were married from 2006 to 2011 -- did happen on an island ... it was on Tavarua in Fiji, in the Pacific Ocean ... about 8,500 miles from Little St. James in the U.S. Virgin Islands, in the Caribbean Sea.
Authorities are taking the lid off the alleged Nancy Guthrie ransom demand we received earlier this week ... confirming they're looking into a note that carries two deadlines.
Several law enforcement officials spoke at a press conference Thursday morning ... and, while they'd previously been cagey with the public about what the note says, they're now divulging certain details -- including the first deadline, which lapses at 5 PM local time today.
The second deadline, as confirmed by authorities, is set for Monday, February 9.
They wouldn't say what exactly changes after the deadlines hit ... but -- as Harvey and Charles said on "TMZ Live" -- we know if the first is missed, that changes the demand ... while missing the second has a more serious consequence.
