Kristy Scott is still "shaking" from her earth-shattering split from estranged husband Desmond ... and she's picking up the pieces in a new emotional video.

Wearing feathered sleeves while pushing a cart down a grocery store aisle, Kristy admitted she was trembling during her first post-breakup grocery run.

She said, "I’m really nervous making this video, but also, my nervous system is like, shot, and it kind of has been for the past month."

Nicki Minaj is apparently one step closer to becoming an American citizen ... and is flaunting her new Trump Gold Card to prove it -- which she hinted she got at no charge!

Check out her tweets from Wednesday -- the Trinidad-born rapper posted a photo of a Trump Gold Card in her hand, and in another tweet said it was "free of charge" ... and that she was finalizing her paperwork for citizenship. She also raved about President Donald Trump, calling him her "wonderful, gracious, charming" president.

If you remember, Trump introduced the Gold Card program in September 2025. All folks need to do is pay a $15,000 "DHS processing fee" and a "$1 million gift" ... and they'll be fast-tracked to receive U.S. residency "in record time," according to the government page for the card.

Lizzo is taking the sudden death of Beauty 2 The Streetz founder Shirley Raines pretty hard ... and she's wearing her emotions on her sleeve.

The "Truth Hurts" singer took to social media Wednesday to react to Ms. Shirley's passing ... and the tears started flowing as Lizzo spoke about Shirley on camera.

As we reported ... the viral social media star was found dead Tuesday night in Nevada, where she was discovered unresponsive next to her bed during a wellness check. Her sister told us Shirley had been healthy and was not on any medication.

Piper Rockelle is spilling the tea on pulling a staggering $3 MILLION in just 24 hours in her OnlyFans debut ... and she’s gushing hard about the X-rated gig -- despite saying signing up was one of the most difficult decisions of her life!

The influencer told "TMZ Live" Wednesday she didn’t jump in the second she turned 18 in August, like many assumed ... she thought it through, waited a few months, and made sure it was exactly what she wanted to do before going live on OF Jan 1st.

Catch the clip... 'cause Piper calls the job a way to finally take back control after growing up under constant scrutiny as a popular child influencer.

Heidi Klum enjoys a relaxing massage from time to time ... particularly with a large bowl of potato chips!

Strange -- and salty -- as that may sound ... the supermodel posted an Instagram video showing her lying face down on a massage table while scarfing down the crispy treats from a big bowl.

Check out the short clip ... which starts with the camera zeroing in on Heidi's leg getting a rub down by a massage therapist.

Then the camera pans up Heidi's naked body covered somewhat by a sheet with her snacking on the chips and making loud crunching noises.

TikTok users have been complaining of not being able to upload content about ICE ... and thousands of people have left the platform as a result.

FYI ... a mostly American-owned joint venture took over TikTok's U.S. assets last week, with “decision-making authority for trust and safety policies and content moderation.”

Misinformation about changes to TikTok's new terms of service spread shortly after the transfer from China-based company ByteDance ... and users started being prevented from uploading content about Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The apparent blackout has become a hot topic ... and Democratic Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy called suppression of anti-Trump and anti-ICE content a threat to democracy.

TikTok denies intentional censorship. TikTok told TMZ a power outage at a U.S.-based data center caused a service disruption, and said that's continuing to impact American users. The company says issues are "unrelated to last week’s news."

TikTok of course could censor anti-ICE content, operating as a private company.

YouTube star Adam the Woo died from natural causes, TMZ has learned.

A rep for Florida's Orange County Medical Examiner tells TMZ ... Adam died of "atherosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease with obesity."

Adam's dad, Jim Williams, reached out to fans in a Facebook post Monday, writing, "Our beloved Son . . . your beloved friend . . . died, in essence, of a heart attack in his sleep from health issues he probably never knew he had."

He continued ... "Now, we can all stop guessing. Be grateful the Lord allowed him to die at home and not in a foreign country. Be grateful he was found by friends (as hard as that was) and not some nameless stranger."

As we reported, Adam died December 22. Deputies initially went to his Orlando, Florida home for a welfare check, but found nothing out of the ordinary.

Christian Combs isn't taking 50 Cent's recent online digs lying down ... he's hitting back at the "senior citizen" by bringing up his baby mama!

Here's the deal ... 50 Cent shared a clip of Christian trying to get a "Bad Boy" chant started at a recent concert -- which went over like a lead balloon and made for a hilariously awkward moment.

50 captioned the post, "Damn 👀his timing was just a little off. 😳" ... which got fans cackling online. Christian, however, wasn't snickering -- he was crafting his own roast online.

Kevin Durant is well aware of the countless social media posts about his dry skin ... but the joke's on the haters behind the tweets -- 'cause he's laughing to the bank!!

The Houston Rockets superstar sat in front of a camera and read some mean posts ... while providing some classic clap-backs in the process.

KD gave props to the funny and creative jabs ... but he came out on top overall -- since the whole clip was part of an ad with CeraVe.

2026 is off to a crazy rough start for Timothy Busfield and his wife, Melissa Gilbert, but Melissa took to Instagram Monday to thank their supporters ... while acknowledging the "heaviness" the whole country is going through right now.

As you know ... Busfield was charged with inappropriately touching 2 boys who were part of the cast of "The Cleaning Lady" in 2022. The actor denies any and all wrongdoing, and was even released from jail pending trial in New Mexico.

While it would be easy to focus on the bad parts of current life -- like the impending trial, the deadly winter storm sweeping the country, and the fatal ICE shootings in Minnesota -- Gilbert is choosing to look at the good.

Zac Brown scored a major federal court victory ... a judge just ordered his estranged wife to return the documents she took when the country star fired her from his company.

A Georgia federal judge ruled in Zac's favor last week ... finding Kelly Yazdi breached her employment contract by taking and retaining more than 170 confidential business emails and files possibly containing info the judge said she could use to publicly attack Zac.

According to the ruling, obtained by TMZ, the judge granted Zac Brown Collective a permanent injunction, ordering Yazdi to return all confidential materials within seven days, certify under oath that she's done so, and permanently stop using or further disclosing any of Zac's business information.

Buffalo Sabres captain Rasmus Dahlin's fiancée, Carolina Matovac, announced on Monday she was pregnant amid her health battle that resulted in a heart transplant ... and heartbreakingly, today was the child's due date.

Carolina -- who got engaged to the defenseman in 2025 -- shared the tragic news on her Instagram ...  with a photo of the couple on a plane as she received medical care.

"Today was meant to be the day we finally met you," Carolina said. "You will always hold a special place in our hearts as our first baby, even though we never had the chance to meet. Our love for you is endless."

Jake Paul’s most challenging fight? Trying to keep up with his fiancée in the hot tub.

Jutta Leerdam turned up the heat on Instagram with "some winter randoms" on Monday -- including a steamy clip of the couple that already has fans losing their minds

The Olympic skater shared a shot of herself rocking a cheeky black swimsuit as she stepped into the tub. Paul sat beside her, helping her into the water before wrapping his arm around her buns.

Billie Eilish isn’t sitting this one out -- she’s calling out fellow celebs for staying silent about ICE and CBP in the wake of Alex Pretti’s shooting death ... and resharing a clip of her brother Finneas to show how easy it is to speak up.

In an IG post Sunday, Billie posted a selfie with a baffled look and the caption, "Hey my fellow celebrities, u gonna speak up? Or..." -- clearly putting quiet A-listers on notice.

Billie’s been loud on plenty of political fronts before ... so it’s no shock she posted to rally support and to judge the silence surrounding Saturday's shooting.

Jéssica Daugirdas -- a popular social media influencer -- died Saturday after a 3-year battle with cancer.

Jéssica's family announced her passing on Instagram, saying she had "infinite wisdom" and was a warrior of God who fought "bravely until the end with strength, faith, and courage."

In 2023, Jessica was first diagnosed with colorectal cancer after she noticed blood in her stool. Initially, she thought it was hemorrhoids or something else, but it turned out to be her worst nightmare.

A new video from the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis continues to show a dramatically different picture than the government narrative, and it undercuts claims made by top Trump officials about what really happened.

The clip -- shot from inside a car right where Pretti was killed -- captures chaotic, close-up moments as Department of Homeland Security officers confront Pretti. In the footage, the bystander who's filming in their car is heard screaming "Holy sh*t! Oh my god!" just as an agent fires the fatal shots.

In the video, a DHS officer violently pushes a woman to the ground. Pretti appears to move toward her to help her up, and agents then pepper spray both Pretti and the woman before dragging Pretti to the ground. At no point in the clip does Pretti appear to draw or brandish a weapon.
