Jennifer Lopez Butt Doesn't Fall Far From the Tree
Jennifer Lopez and her mother were big hits walking the streets of Manhattan yesterday, and if you didn't know they were related ... a quick pan down of our camera revealed the family resemblance.
J. Lo and her mother, Guadalupe were shopping on Madison Ave. where they encountered a bunch of fans ... including one woman who joked she was happier to meet mom than J. Lo.
Jenny does talk to us about where she used to get her hair did -- but, honestly, it was hard to focus due to the view of mother and daughter butt ... and their shared DNA.
Oh, mama!

Kylie Jenner Tattoos Her Initials on Lionel Richie's Son
Kylie Jenner helped tattoo her initials on the hand of Lionel Richie's son ... which is both stupid and not entirely legal ... and TMZ has the video.
It all went down at a recording studio in Hollywood on Friday night. According to our sources, Kylie was there with sister Khloe Kardashian, French Montana and Miles Richie.
We're told Miles (who is 19) was getting ink from John Petro, who has tatted up the likes of Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne ... when Kylie decided she wanted to help out.
Sources say Kylie threw on some gloves and put her hands on top of Petro's as he administered the tat -- sorta like when a father lets his kid sit in his lap and "drive" a car.
But according to the LA County Dept. of Public Health, only people over 18 can give tattoos -- or even participate in the process -- and Kylie is only 16.
If authorities decide to go after Jenner, she could be hit with a misdemeanor and fined up to $1,000 ... and Petro could have his license suspended.
As for Richie ... well his punishment lasts for eternity.

'Flip It Forward' Crew 'Blindsided' HGTV Treated Us Like Dirt
The crew for "Flip It Forward" isn't turning the other cheek with HGTV ... telling TMZ they were completely "blindsided" by the network's decision to cancel the show, and send about 20 people to the unemployment line.
As we reported ... HGTV yanked the show -- 4 weeks into production -- after a blog reported hosts, twin brothers David and Jason Benham ... had led prayers at anti-gay protests back in 2012.
Crew members tell us they're pissed at the network -- not the Benham bros -- for laying them off with 5 weeks left to go. We're told many are pissed because they passed up other jobs ... thinking they'd have steady work for a while.
Sources on set say the Benhams were "extremely genuine, nice guys" who never pushed their religious beliefs on anyone ... and even took co-workers to basketball games, bars and dinners.
The crew's attitude is if anyone's a Judas in this mess ... it's the HGTV honchos who pulled the plug even though they were fully aware of the Benhams' views on gay marriage.

Kourtney & Khloe REJECTED By the Hamptons 'They'll Attract Trash'
Kourtney and Khloe won't be taking the Hamptons any time soon -- despite announcing plans to tape their new spin-off in the ritzy Long Island villages -- TMZ has learned, NO ONE wants to rent to them for the summer ... so far anyway ... because they're more trouble than they're worth.
Real estate sources tell TMZ, Kourtney and Khloe have been on the hunt for a massive Hamptons property to rent for the summer while they shoot "Kourtney & Khloe Take the Hamptons."
E! announced plans for the new show in March, but perhaps too soon -- because we're told producers have hit brick wall after brick wall while trying to lock down a house to shoot in.
All across the Hamptons, sources tell us, homeowners have unanimously rejected the Kardashians out of fear they'll bring negative exposure to the wealthy communities.
We're told the biggest concern is having paparazzi swarming around neighborhoods. Now a homeowner could step up and save the day for them ... but we're told so far no one is biting.
Pretty funny ... one Southampton snob tells us, they're all worried the Kardashians will "attract trash and ruin Southampton," so they want them to go to East Hampton instead, which is notably more "new money." But we're told even East Hampton doesn't want them.
Rich people.
T.I. Blasts Apollo Nida On Cam I Ain't Snitchin' Like You! [VIDEO]
Apollo Nida won't be comparing himself to T.I. anymore -- especially when it comes to snitching -- because the rapper and his boy Killer Mike put the fear of God into Apollo in Atlanta yesterday ... and the whole confrontation was recorded.
TMZ broke the story ... "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Nida copped a plea with the Feds in his wire and bank fraud case -- and part of the terms included Nida agreeing to become an informant to help catch other crooks. Aka snitching.
Nida tried to downplay our story with a tweet ... claiming T.I. and Michael Vick signed similar "snitching" deals in their cases. Big mistake, Apollo.
T.I. and Mike caught up with Nida in a parking lot yesterday ... and made it extremely clear -- he better keep T.I.'s name out of his mouth.
In the vid ... T.I. tells Nida their cases were not similar at all.
T.I.'s right ... we've seen the documents and his plea agreement with the Feds does NOT include a so-called snitching clause.
Nida has since deleted the tweet -- and after what happens in this video ... safe to say he won't be saying, tweeting, or even thinking anything about T.I. again.

They were strolling the street in NYC, looking happy, but snapshots can be deceiving.
As TMZ first reported, Frankel filed for divorce in January 2013, but they have been in a mega- fight over money and custody issues ever since. Just last month, Bethenny was ordered to fork over $100k to Hoppy's attorneys ... and still there is no deal done.
Maybe the divorce will be settled before Bryn's next birthday.

Porsha Williams Anti-Gay Rant Won't Cost Her 'Housewives' Gig
Porsha Williams' anti-gay sermon does NOT mean she's getting axed from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" next season, but she still might be 86'd over that reunion show brawl ... TMZ has learned.
As TMZ previously reported, video from about 3 years ago recently surfaced showing Porsha preaching and rambling about praying for gays, lesbians, and hookers to be saved.
But sources close to Porsha tell TMZ she has not heard one word from Bravo. We're told Bravo is more concerned about the fallout from Porsha's fight with Kenya Moore and the resulting battery charge.
Our sources say Bravo hasn't made a final decision yet -- but execs are worried about having both women return next season because restraining orders can put a real damper on group scenes.

'Housewives Star' Apollo Nida Sure, I'll Be A Rat For The Government
Apollo Nida made a deal with the feds that has landed many an informant in concrete shoes.
Nida copped a plea Tuesday to wire and bank fraud, and TMZ has learned under the terms of the deal he agreed to act in an "undercover investigative capacity" for the feds.
Here's what we don't understand ... the plea deal is now available to the public, so what idiot is going to spill his guts to Nida now?
It gets even weirder. Nida has agreed to allow the feds to record conversations he may have with other criminal suspects. Again, it's like screaming through a bullhorn, "Don't talk to that dude!"
Nida stole the identities of more than 50 people and laundered more than $2.3 million ... so the government claims.
Nida could be sentenced to 30 years in prison, but that's worst case scenario. The judge will formally sentence him in July.
Hopefully, real life snitching will work out better for Nida than it did on "The Sopranos."

Kim and Kanye Touched by Famous Booger
Former Vogue honcho Andre Leon Talley is definitely our pick of the week.
Talley dug deep during his interview with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West during Monday night's Met Gala ... and then touched the golden couple with his fool's gold.
It's unclear how much time passes before the dig and the touch, but Talley is clearly seen touching Kim's shoulder as he kisses her goodbye ... before using the same hand to shake Kanye's.
Kim did seem a little nasally after the interview.
'Real Housewives' Hubby Pleads Guilty in Massive ID Theft Scheme
Apollo Nida -- husband of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Phaedra Parks -- has pleaded guilty in a massive money fraud scheme ... after allegedly stealing the identities of more than 50 people and laundering more than $2.3 million.
According to the US Attorneys' office, Feds pounced on Nida last year after he and a group of co-conspirators cashed tons of stolen U.S. Treasury checks, and checks from the Delta Airlines pension fund ... then laundered the money through bank accounts in the names of people whose IDs he also stole.
Feds claim Nida bilked even more cash by filing fake tax returns and obtaining bank loans against cars he didn't own.
He pled guilty Tuesday to conspiracy to commit mail, wire, and bank fraud. He'll be sentenced at a later date.

'Real Housewives' Star Porsha Williams Is a Gay Flip Flopper Bashing Them One Day, Taking Their $$$ the Next
12:50 PM PT -- Porsha just released a statement, apologizing for the video -- saying, "God loves all of his children ... The sermon was shown not in its entirety, therefore the message was omitted."
She adds, "I apologize that those words hurt the LGBT community, my fans and my supporters. Life is a journey and I'm growing every day."
"Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Porsha Williams needs to pick one team or the other -- co-star Cynthia Bailey tells us, Porsha's currently playing both sides of the gay community ... condemning them to hell one day, and performing at popular gay clubs the next.
Cynthia's responding to video TMZ posted Monday, showing Porsha preaching at a Georgia church in 2010 about how gays are just like hookers, drug dealers, and suicidal people ... they're ALL sinners who need to be saved.
Cynthia called Porsha's pulpit rant disappointing -- telling us, "To put gays and lesbians in the same category as drug dealers, hookers, and people who attempt suicide is ignorant and insensitive. Especially when she just recently profited from performing at a popular gay club in NYC. #flipflop"
Porsha performed at El Morocco on May 2nd.
Gay RHOA cast member Miss Lawrence agrees, telling us, "I think some women use the community as a convenience ... i.e. for gay slang, fan base building, and beauty security. But like always, true character always reveals."
