Paparazzi

Stephen Belafonte bitched photogs were getting shots of his daughter during his monitored visits, but his plea to change the location for those visits was shot down.

The judge decided to keep things status quo after Mel B's estranged husband pointed out photos of their 5-year-old daughter, Madison, hiding her face. Belafonte's attorney said the pics were taken outside the building where he meets Madison.

The judge felt the pics weren't enough evidence the child was being harmed, and added ... if there was a throng of paps things could be different.

Later this month, another hearing is set where Belafonte will try to convince the judge he needs emergency spousal support. As we reported, he claims he's broke and couch surfing with friends.

Blac Chyna -- unlike you know who -- doesn't have a fake ass relationship because she's a real ass bitch ... so real, in fact, she's telling the truth about the paparazzi to our faces!

We got BC leaving Argyle Monday night with the dude she says she she's dating -- though we're pretty sure she's kidding. He's her longtime hairstylist.

There's a lot to unpack in this video -- like when Blac makes a guy selling roses beg for his money. But at the crux here is BC telling it how it really is in Hollywood -- celebrities need the paparazzi.

Hear that, y'all?

Scott Disick will soon be on the same turf as Kourtney Kardashian and her new man ... and he's bringing Bella Thorne along for the ride.

We got Scott and Bella, along with her tie-dyed sis, Monday at LAX, where they were getting ready to board a flight together. Our Scott sources say they're heading to Cannes.

This new pairing didn't just come out of nowhere ... Scott grabbed dinner with Bella last week.

While Barack was hitting the links in Tuscany, Michelle Obama was hitting the sights about 67 miles away ... and looking good in pink doing it.

The former First Lady was strolling around in Montalcino, Italy this weekend -- and she appeared to be the talk of the small town. You can't blame the locals ... she kinda stood out with the pink and white. Plus ... it's Michelle Freakin' Obama. She'll always turn heads.

Michelle snagged a second for herself during a food break, but then it was right back into the international spotlight. Togliti di mezzo!

Barack Obama has made it clear ... he's worried about the state of our union, but it didn't get in the way of what looks like an awesome round of golf ... Italian style.

The former Prez hit the links at the Castiglion Del Bosco Resort during holiday in Tuscany.

Miley Cyrus tried to walk into her NYC hotel, but ran into a massive wall of fans that had to make her feel like she was traveling back in time.

Miley and her mom were absolutely MOBBED by the swarm Wednesday as she entered the London Hotel. Just watching it almost gives you anxiety, and yet Miley was happy to take pics and sign autographs ... until security moved to get her out safely.

The scene was 100% reminiscent of her peak "Hannah Montana" days.

She just dropped "Malibu" last week, and after the chaos in NYC ... it's definitely struck a chord with fans.

Jada Pinkett Smith made a camera guy break into a sweat when she accused him of dinging her really expensive whip, which could cost him hundreds ... maybe even thousands!

Jada was leaving lunch at E. Baldi in Bev Hills Wednesday when the pap, not a TMZ photog, tried to snap a pic while squeezing between Jada's black Rolls-Royce and a van. He wasn't successful.

Scott Disick's new lady friend had a really hard time finding her ride Tuesday night -- but luckily Scott's private driver happened to be Johnny on the Spot and whisked her away ... maybe to Scott's.

Scott's rumored boo -- British model Ella Ross -- simply could not find her Uber after leaving Avenue in L.A. -- going left, right and around to find some kind of help getting home.

Then, out of nowhere, Lee Weaver appeared and offered Ella a ticket out of the paparazzi chaos ... for a price, of course. Turns out the dude is Scott's personal driver ... and he says something that may be a clue as to Ella's final destination.

The whole thing seems too perfect to be a coincidence.

Two of the most famous giant asses in the history of booty came together in Vegas over the weekend -- Blac Chyna and Alexis Texas ... in an event that woulda made Sir Mix-A-Lot blush.

For the unfamiliar ... Alexis is one of the all time porn legends -- who just won "Most Epic Ass" at the 2017 AVN Awards.

And as you can tell by the photos, Chyna couldn't keep her hands off it when they got together at the Sapphire Pool & Dayclub party in Vegas over the weekend.

Butt respect Butt.

The Met Gala just kept on going Monday night ... with big stars making a big exit at The Mark Hotel.

Check out the clip of some of the best dressed leaving and then coming back to the famous hotel, which is just a stone's throw from the Met.

You see Tom Brady and Gisele, Anna Wintour, Celine Dion, Cara Delevingne and Selena Gomez making their escape earlier in the day ... and later Halle Berry, Sarah Paulson and Lupita Nyong'o circling back around ... not nearly as fast, though.

Whoever said good artists borrow and great artists steal may have been looking at Monday night's Met Gala with a smile ... 'cause Hollywood was all about it.

Check out some of the biggest (and most familiar) looks from the red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum or Art, where Flavor Flav's white suit and top hat, The Weeknd's old 'do and the classic blue Snuggie resurfaced in some of the stars' outfits.

Tom Brady ain't talking TDs, instead he's in fashion mode with Gisele ... and hit up Anna Wintour's pad in NYC for a pre-Met Gala party.

The Bradys joined Katy Perry and Pharrell Sunday night at Anna's place in NYC. Tom rocked a green blazer with a white tee ... looking sharp on all fronts.

Huma Abedin also made the cut for the A-list event ... in a classic red dress.

The bash was basically a pre-game for Monday night's Met Gala ... where all of the above and hundreds more will show up trying to outdo each other's wardrobes.

Kim Kardashian had her spell on just about everyone who saw her in the 90210 Saturday night -- even in all black ... you couldn't miss her.

Kim was leaving a friend's party in Bev Hills where she was wearing a hugging body suit, jeans and knee-high boots ... with a coat that was almost half on.

She just got home from a vacay in Mexico with Kourtney and some friends, where she was showing off a lot more of her body. Here, she's toned it down -- maybe even doing a different take on the flu look she pulled off so well just a couple weeks ago.

Whatever the outfit ... Kim definitely has the magic touch. Take it away, Carlos.

Jamie Lynn Spears is happy to give an update on her daughter's health after an almost fatal incident on an ATV earlier this year -- but don't ask if she'll ride again.

We got Jamie leaving L.A. Sunday after joining Britney at the 2017 Radio Disney Music Awards Saturday night. She told us her 8-year-old daughter, Maddie, is 100% after having to be put on a ventilator in February from an ATV accident.

But watch how she reacts to being asked if Maddie will get back on one of the vehicles that nearly killed her ... not nearly as chatty.

We broke the story ... Maddie's ATV flipped into a pond where she was trapped and submerged for several minutes. She was on a ventilator for at least a day.

Jay Z and Beyonce have a carefully orchestrated escape plan to hide her baby bump whenever they're in public, and they rolled it out after dinner in Malibu.

The couple slipped out of Nobu Sunday night under heavy cover ... from bodyguards to choreographed SUVs. We'll say this ... their drivers pulled some slick maneuvers during the elaborate game of hide-that-belly.

It's weird though, because Beyonce hasn't been shy about sharing preggo shots ... she just posted a bunch more this weekend.

Guess she only trusts her photographers, and her security will continue playing linemen to shield her until babies #2 and 3 arrive.

Richard Simmons was playing with the paparazzi Thursday, with a lot of help from the LAPD.

TMZ broke the story, Simmons returned home after spending 3 days in the hospital for gastrointestinal issues.

As Richard sat in his garage waiting for cops, a photog got a pic that partially shows his face, which we haven't seen in 3 years ... except for one Bigfoot-like image last summer.

Sources who have been around Richard all tell us he's fine ... he's got a bum knee and often walks with a cane but mentally he's "all there" and is just sick of maintaining the "Richard Simmons persona."

So Thursday late afternoon ... Richard was returning home, didn't want to be seen and knew paparazzi were at his gate. So he and his housekeeper called the LAPD and apparently made things sound urgent enough that at least 4 cops showed up and ended up forming a human shield, allowing a blanket-covered Simmons to slink into his home without anyone snapping his mug.
