Rachel Uchitel, the famed nightclub manager best known for being Tiger Woods' former mistress, is shedding light on her decision to snub "Celebrity Apprentice" over a decade ago.

We caught up with the TV personality in New York City on Tuesday, where Rachel reacted to the first trailer for the new Trump biopic, "The Apprentice" ... and spilled all about her connection to the former prez.

As Rachel put it ... she doesn't think the movie -- which follows Trump's early days as a businessman in the Big Apple -- will hurt the presidential hopeful's campaign, noting people may not like him, but they are certainly entertained by him.

"Million Dollar Wheels" star RD Whittington is the guy A-list celebs go to when they need a luxury ride, but he got a ride in a different kind of car this week ... a police car, because he got busted in a felony fraud case.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... the reality TV star and celeb car broker was arrested Tuesday afternoon by Beverly Hills Police on an out-of-state warrant from Nevada, and he was hauled off to jail.

RD's the guy who hooks up celebs like Kim Kardashian, Jamie Foxx, Travis Barker, Bad Bunny, Kanye West, J Balvin, Lil Uzi Vert and Ray J with pimped-out cars ... and cops tell us he was arrested on a felony fraud charge for allegedly trying to pass a check with insufficient funds.

Jason Oppenheim confirms he was duped alongside "Selling Sunset" fans when newcomer Alanna Gold claimed she owned Pioneertown ... but he's already forgiven the realtor.

We caught up with the Oppenheim Group boss in Los Angeles, where he told TMZ that he had no clue the season 8 new addition didn't actually own the western town in Yucca Valley, California, like she claimed on the show.

Rather, he learned the truth when Pioneertown spoke out to dispute Alanna's false claim.

Katy Perry’s still dishing out racy bedroom secrets about Orlando Bloom ... and standing up for him over a viral pic of him checking out Kim Kardashian's bum.

The singer was on the "Elvis Duran Show" Tuesday, where the host read her TMZ's story about Orlando's sneak peek ... and instead of flipping out, Katy approved of his gaze, noting how could he not check out Kim’s voluptuous buttocks?

Katy is in the pic too ... and when Duran read the part in our story about Orlando checking out Kim’s behind, with his hand hovering above Katy’s butt, she quipped, "It’s been other places. Sorry to tell you!"

Andy Cohen and Ryan Seacrest and are no longer beefin' ... years after butting heads over their rival New Year's Eve programs.

The TV personalities caught up on Cohen's "Watch What Happens Live" Tuesday evening, where a fan wrote in with a question about the status of their feud.

Cohen admitted he didn't exactly recall what started the drama ... but assured fans all is well between himself and Seacrest. He even noted the rival hosts saw each other on NYE last year and there was no issue ... they even waved at each other!!!

Kim Kardashian is making the rounds in new footage from inside the Kering Foundation's Caring for Women dinner ... chatting up Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sanchez and Donatella Versace.

TMZ obtained exclusive video from inside Monday's star-studded gala in New York City, and the place is packed to the gills with celebs ... and Kim's doing the social butterfly thing with her rich and famous friends.

Before the dinner started, Kim was chatting up Donatella ... fashion is a likely topic here, but oh to be a fly on the wall. They're holding hands, enjoying each other's company and talking -- and of course, posing for photos.

"Selling Sunset" newbie Alanna Gold has apologized to the tiny California community of Pioneertown ... after falsely claiming on the Netflix show's newest season she owned the place ... TMZ has learned.

In a note apologizing to the residents of Pioneertown, seen by TMZ, Alanna says she’s super sorry for the mix-up, admitting she definitely doesn’t own Pioneertown ... and definitely didn't mean any harm by making the claim.

Alanna clarified she got a bit carried away on the show because she’s just so in love with Pioneertown -- it’s where she had her first date with her husband, and they even tied the knot at the historic Soundstage.

Orlando Bloom enjoys a nice view -- perhaps a little too much as he was caught seemingly staring at Kim Kardashian's famous booty.

The actor and his fiancée, Katy Perry, attended Monday's Kering Foundation's Caring for Women Dinner in NYC -- and were photographed standing near Kim K with Orlando just behind her.

All three were exquisitely dressed ... Orlando was in a black tuxedo, Katy was in a flashy aqua blue dress and Kim was in a form-fitting white latex gown, accentuating her shapely derriere.

Donald Trump wasn't always the very public controversial figure he is today ... at one point, he was merely lawyer Roy Cohn's apprentice, learning a never-quit attitude.

This is the viewpoint "The Apprentice" takes in the first trailer for the highly publicized biopic about the former prez's early days in NYC.

Check it out ... Sebastian Stan stars as a young Trump, who is hungry and eager to learn from Jeremy Strong's Cohn.

Prince Harry's latest TV project is set to hit the small screen this winter ... amid his ongoing estrangement from his royal family.

Netflix offered up a first glimpse of Prince Harry's new docuseries, granting a closer look at the world of polo -- a sport the Duke of Sussex has been playing since he was a boy.

The docuseries -- aptly titled "POLO" -- won't be about Prince Harry, however ... it will follow "elite global players" and offer up "an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the fast-paced world of the sport," per Netflix.

Rachel Zoe and her longtime hubby Rodger Berman are calling it quits ... they're throwing in the towel on their marriage after 26 years.

The fashion designer dropped the divorce bombshell on IG Monday ... explaining she and Rodger mutually decided to end their marriage, but made it clear they're still on great terms.

Rachel added they are super proud of the loving family they built, and their top priority is co-parenting their sons, Skyler, 13, and Kaius, 10.

Phaedra Parks is ready for Kim Zolciak to pick her peach back up ... telling TMZ she'd be ecstatic if "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum rejoined the fold.

We caught up with the Bravo personality outside the "Dancing With the Stars" studio ... where she was heading in to train for season 33 of the competition series. However, Phaedra made it clear she still has 'RHOA' on the brain ... as she's set to make her grand return to the reality show for its 16th season.

PP isn't the only 'RHOA' alum angling for a comeback ... KZ noted earlier in the summer that she'd be open to returning to the 'Housewives' franchise now that vets Phaedra and Porsha Williams are filming again.

Kim Zolciak is hitting back at estranged husband Kroy Biermann's claim she's dragging her feet on unloading their marital home ... claiming he's the one who isn't ponying up any money.

Photogs caught up with the Bravo personality at LAX, where she put her ex on blast for suggesting she's the problem amid their financial woes. As Kim put it ... Kroy doesn't pay for a single thing, as she's the one paying for the bills, their kids' clothing, most of the food, and everything else.

Watch the vid ... Kim even suggests her daughter Brielle, who Kroy legally adopted in 2013, has done more to contribute to the family's overall finances.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard is showing her commitment to boyfriend Ken Urker ... with a special piece of jewelry.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Gypsy gifted Ken a promise ring a few weeks ago after their child's gender reveal.

Ken's proudly displaying the black band on his ring finger in a recent photo the couple posted at Nobu, leading eagle-eyed fans to wonder what the deal was ... and now we know.
