Chrishell Stause's disdain for 'Traitors' costar Tom Sandoval is not just for the cameras ... telling us their beef is putting the real in reality TV.

We caught up with the "Selling Sunset" star at LAX, where she spilled all on filming season 3 of the Peacock competition series ... including her callout of the "Vanderpump Rules" alum early on in the season.

As she puts it ... Tom is not her "favorite," which is the nice-girl way of saying she pretty much hates the guy.

"Love Island USA" star Hannah Smith has just been slapped with criminal charges stemming from her recent arrest in Atlanta ... after prosecutors say she threatened to kill a police officer.

Cobb County prosecutors reviewed Hannah's case and decided to formally charge her with two felonies ... terroristic threats and willful obstruction of a law enforcement officer ... according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ.

As we previously reported, the reality TV star was arrested at a concert venue in Atlanta back in September, when she was escorted out of the venue for being disorderly. She was released on bail after spending one night in jail.

Another 'Bachelor' romance has run out of roses -- Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell have officially split after four years together.

Matt asked for "peace about this decision to end our relationship that transcends worldly understanding" ... and leaned on his faith further, asking God to remind both him and Rachael that their joy comes from above.

Kyle Richards is hitting back after Garcelle Beauvais questioned her sexuality on camera ... blasting her "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" costar for acting like an "ass****."

The longtime Bravo personality issued a biting response to Garcelle seemingly encouraging her to come out as a "lesbian" during Tuesday's episode ... and accused her castmate of trying to get a reaction out of her on the 'RHOBH After Show.'

While Kyle noted she was unbothered by the line of questioning -- since rumors about her sexuality have been ongoing amid her friendship with singer Morgan Wade and her separation from husband Mauricio Umansky -- she admitted to being confused by Garcelle's motive.

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.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's final days in their home were far from peaceful ... and we have the police body cam to prove it.

As you know, cops were called to intervene back in December when Kroy chose to block Kim's moving truck with his car ... to prevent her from taking off with any of their shared property, which he felt he was entitled to.

Yet, as new police body cam footage obtained by TMZ shows ... Kim hurled her own accusations of theft at Kroy during the moving day debacle.

The 42-year-old -- who is co-owner of "Vilma's" in the Big Easy himself -- said the duty of being in charge of an eatery is very similar to the head coach of a football team ... and his words will have you ready to run through a brick wall.

Spencer Pratt says he feels like a ghost after losing everything he has in the Pacific Palisades wildfire ... and the weight of starting life from zero and figuring out a way to provide for his family is hitting him hard.

The reality TV star joined us Monday on "TMZ Live" and he opened up to us about watching his life literally go up in smoke ... and it's emotional.

Spencer was born and raised in the Palisades and he says losing his house, all his possessions and his parents' house makes him feel empty and hollow.

Spencer Pratt literally fled his Pacific Palisades home before it burned down with just the shirt on his back ... which is evident from the new video obtained by TMZ.

Spencer and his wife Heidi were at Marshall's in Santa Barbara Sunday, wearing the same shirt he was wearing last Tuesday when the massive fire erupted in his neighborhood, torching the family house he shares with his wife, Heidi Montag, and their 2 kids.

Spencer and Heidi lost everything in the fire, and he's already moving to rebuild their lives. He's trying to get Hulu to do a show with his family, which will help with the enormous cost of rebuilding and restoring.

Two of California's top politicians are in the crosshairs of recall petitions ... but, while one is gaining quite a bit of steam, the other is struggling out of the starting blocks.

In the wake of the devastating wildfires burning huge swaths of California, two petitions have been started calling for the removal of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California Governor Gavin Newsom.

The petition to recall Governor Newsom is newer than the one to nix Bass ... and, quite frankly it's having trouble gaining serious traction. It was started yesterday -- and, so far, it's only gained about 27K signatures.

Plenty of Angelenos are livid at Mayor Karen Bass right now in the midst of the deadly wildfires ravaging SoCal ... and Khloé Kardashian has made it clear she is among them!

Khloé called out the mayor on Friday night, after Los Angeles Fire Chief Kristin Crowley did a stunning interview with FOX 11 in L.A. where she said the city (meaning Bass) failed her, essentially due to budget cuts ... calling the situation “no longer sustainable.”

Crowley groused the Mayor had called for massive budget cuts and she had pleaded more than a month ago for more money because there were firetrucks in such disrepair they couldn't go on the road, there were hydrants that needed fixing, etc, but it was met with deaf ears.

Paris Hilton is forking over a nice chunk of change to help people impacted by the wildfires ravaging Los Angeles.

The socialite posted a message Friday to Instagram, guaranteeing she’ll donate $100,000 to support anyone who was displaced when their homes were burned to the ground. She'll also match up to an additional $100,000 from other contributors.

Furthermore, Paris says her heart is with those who not only lost their homes like she did, but also their most cherished possessions and sense of stability.

Heidi Klum let it all hang out, making a bold splash alongside hubby Tom Kaulitz as she continued her St. Barts getaway.

The supermodel leaned into her European roots, rocking some serious body confidence as she ditched the bikini top while splashing around in the ocean with her man by her side.

No surprise here -- Tom was all smiles, keeping his topless supermodel wife close as they soaked up that St. Barts bliss.

NeNe Leakes is telling 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' superfan Cynthia Erivo not to despair ... 'cause she could make a return to the show -- if the offer was right.

We caught up with the 'RHOA' alum in New York City earlier this week ... and, we had to ask her about the "Wicked" star revealing she's a huge fan of NeNe -- and, asking Bravo to bring her back to the show.

NeNe says she loves Cynthia and thanks her for her praise ... before adding she totally agrees -- so, sounds like Leakes thinks 'Atlanta' needs a dose of herself baked back in the show.

8:46 AM PT -- Chase's attorneys -- Drew Findling, Marissa Goldberg, and Zack Findling, of the Findling Law Firm -- tell TMZ ... "This incident has been entirely blown out of proportion. Chase Chrisley had done the right thing that evening by calling a driver to take him home. He did not assault anyone. Chase was trying to close out his tab and leave. We will be independently investigating the situation."

"Growing Up Chrisley" star Chase Chrisley got a dose of reality Thursday ... he was thrown in the slammer for allegedly slapping a bar manager in Georgia earlier this week.

Chase, the son of TV stars turned convicted criminals Todd and Julie Chrisley, was booked Thursday into the Fulton County Jail for simple battery, according to official records. He posed for a mug shot and was released on $10,000 bond.

Spencer Pratt watched his Pacific Palisades home burn to the ground in a raging L.A. wildfire -- and he captured his gut-wrenching ordeal on camera.

In video footage, flames tear through the hills as he mutters "Yikes" a few times behind the camera -- a simple reaction, but it spoke volumes about the intensity of watching the home he shared with wife Heidi and their two young sons go up in smoke.

Spencer shared another clip, barely holding it together in his car, as the fire raged behind him. With a dazed look, he told his followers he was watching his home burn down right in front of him.
