Armie Hammer is sticking to his word that he is not a cannibal ... but he is copping to eating a freshly killed animal's heart while on a hunting trip with his pals.

The "Social Network" actor set the scene for the gory memory on Tuesday's "The Louis Theroux Podcast," explaining that taking a bite out of an animal's heart is "almost an overly charged male rite of passage when you go hunting for your first time."

He confirmed he did not eat the whole heart ... and that he did not consume it for "the purpose of any cannibalism or any sexual gratification."

Justin Baldoni says he needs time to heal from an intense year ... admitting he's exhausted and anxious from a bunch of stress.

Baldoni opened up and got emotional in a face-to-face interview with Samir Mourani -- host of the "Gent's Talk Podcast" -- talking about his need for some serious self-care.

Justin sat for the interview a month prior to Blake Lively's first court filing accusing the "It Ends With Us" actor-director of sexual harassment and a public smear campaign ... and it's pretty evident his trying time with Blake on set is the cause of all his stress here.

Justin Baldoni is breaking his silence amid his ugly legal battle with Blake Lively, saying in a teary-eyed promo clip for a soon-to-be-aired interview he's had an "intense year."

Baldoni sat down with Samir Mourani -- host of the "Gent's Talk" podcast -- for an emotional face-to-face, recorded a month prior to Lively's first court filing accusing the "It Ends With Us" actor-director of sexual harassment and publicly smearing her name. As you know, Lively starred with Baldoni in the film.

In the short interview clip with quick jump cuts, Baldoni tells Mourani, “I had an intense year" and “This morning I sent a text message ... I had anxiety.”

Khloé Kardashian is revealing her workout motivation ... and it's S-E-X.

Khloé admitted her true intentions behind staying in shape during a conversation with Disso Queen Laura Wasser on her podcast, "Khloe In Wonder Land."

KK tells Laura ... "Listen, I work out to get laid. I'm like, 'Someone's gonna see this naked one day,' and it has to look good."

Justin Baldoni's lawyer has an ace in the hole in his client's legal war with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds ... and the threat of a Taylor Swift deposition can go a long way here.

TMZ has a new podcast with Harvey Levin and Mark Geragos -- "Two Angry Men" -- and in our first episode we broke down the Blake-Baldoni beef with special guest Bryan Freedman, the attorney repping Justin.

Harvey hammers Bryan about potentially deposing Taylor ... because she's central to the dispute by virtue of her involvement in an infamous meeting between Justin, Blake and Ryan.

Alex Cooper clearly doesn't care it's still winter ... she's already putting her bathing suit body on full display.

Check it out ... the "Call Her Daddy" podcaster practically looks like Spring Break Barbie come to life thanks to a get-up featuring a hot pink one-piece swimsuit, a pink and orange windbreaker, and matching shades.

While Alex's colorful ensemble may be currently out of season, it makes sense, given the fact she's promoting her spring break tour ... which is set to hit Miami for three nights in March.

Brianna "Chickenfry" LaPaglia says she might be taking a headfirst dive into the lady pool ... admitting her breakup with Zach Bryan has put her off guys -- and, it might be time to go fully lesbian.

The Barstool Sports personality made the announcement during her "BFFs" podcast Wednesday ... telling her cohost Josh Richards she's happy in single life -- and, she's not sure she ever wants to have a boyfriend again.

Richards asks if that means she'd consider dating a woman instead ... and, Brianna doesn't shoot it down -- saying she'd consider it.

Steve-O baldly went where no stuntman has gone before -- courtesy of Mark Wahlberg himself, who took clippers to his head, all in honor of Mark's latest movie role.

MW's playing a balding hitman in "Flight Risk," and Steve-O wanted in on the look. So, the actor went full barber mode, and you can watch the transformation in this "Wildride! with Steve-O" clip.

Steve-O going all in on the wild look was totally on brand. Meanwhile, Mark was clearly loving his side gig as a hairstylist -- who knew Wahlberg had shear talent?

LeBron James is waving the white flag in the battle for Christmas Day ... admitting the NFL whooped the NBA's ass in the ratings department -- but claiming Beyoncé played a huge role in the L.

The King chopped it up with Jason and Travis Kelce on the newest episode of their "New Heights" podcast this week ... and at one point in the convo, they asked LeBron about his famous deceleration following the Lakers' 115-113 victory against the Warriors -- in which he stated Dec. 25 belonged to Adam Silver's organization.

Unfortunately for James, the viewership numbers didn't back his claim -- as the NFL drew in 65 million U.S. viewers for its two games ... which was much more than the NBA got for its five games throughout the holiday.

Donald Trump's celebrity supporters are going to be in attendance for his second inauguration ... and he's got athletes, influencers, podcasters and reality TV stars in his corner.

We've confirmed previous reports Elon Musk will be there.

T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach agree David Muir wearing a clothespin isn't a good look ... but, they say it might not be his fault -- 'cause there are always too many cooks in the kitchen.

The two former ABC News anchors talked about the viral moment on their show "Amy & T.J." in an episode titled "Does This Fire Make Me Look Fat?"

Holmes & Robach take a couple shots at the move ... claiming it will certainly come off as insensitive to many people who have lost homes in the Pacific Palisades wildfire and other Los Angeles-area blazes.

Mel Gibson's Malibu home is literally a pile of ashes, and yet he's got an incredibly lighthearted, positive attitude about it ... joking he's "never seen a place so perfectly burnt."

Mel's 6,500 square foot residence was torched in the Pacific Palisades Fire that was fueled by 100 MPH wind gusts ... all while Mel was out of town. The actor/director was on News Nation Thursday night talking about the disaster that struck while he was doing Joe Rogan's podcast.

He says he was "ill at ease because I knew my neighborhood was on fire" while he was talking to Rogan. He says the Santa Ana winds were just starting to kick up on Tuesday when he took off for Texas -- but you gotta see him described the devastation.

Khloé Kardashian has faced Scott Disick hookup rumors for so long, she had no choice but to make it the headline act for her first-ever podcast episode.

The rumored lovebirds tackled the gossip head-on in "Khloé in Wonderland" -- and Khloé didn’t sugarcoat it, shutting down the chatter by saying their famously close bond is strictly sibling vibes, despite what fans might think.

Scott chimed in, calling it "psychotic" anyone would think they’re soulmates -- especially considering he has kids with her sister Kourtney Kardashian.

Joe Budden's podcast co-host QueenzFlip is defending his friend in the wake of the rapper's lewdness charge ... and he says the incident won't harm their work.

We got QueenzFlip in New Jersey and our photog asked him about Joe's alleged naked event from last month ... the one where his neighbors claim he showed up at their door in his birthday suit.

QueenzFlip says Joe's always going to be good in his book and he's brushing off the incident ... chalking it up to JB's sleepwalking.

Former 'Bachelorette' star Ali Fedotowsky is joining the ranks of others calling out Ellen DeGeneres over the years, claiming the talk show host made her feel stupid on her talk show.

Ali dished the deets on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s "Off the Vine" podcast, saying her 2010 sit-down with Ellen left her feeling "pretty not great" -- claiming that instead of laughing with her, it felt like Ellen was laughing at her as she nervously tried to bring the charm and wit.

Ali didn’t totally go after Ellen, clarifying she didn’t think she was being mean or a bad person -- she chalked up Ellen's demeanor to the monotony of doing the same job day in, day out.

Justin Baldoni has suffered another blow amid his legal war with Blake Lively ... a podcaster who recently interviewed him has removed his episode.

Elizabeth Day, who hosts the 'How To Fail' podcast, shared an IG statement Tuesday, explaining she had taken down the December 4 interview with Baldoni while all the "distressing allegations made against him in Blake Lively's recent lawsuit are fully investigated."

Elizabeth spoke of Baldoni's legal matter in general ... saying she believes every individual has a right to a safe workplace, and every woman should have dignity in that workplace.
