Luka Doncic and Madelyn Cline can officially be crossed off the rumored couples list ... 'cause TMZ has learned there's absolutely nothing going on between them.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... they're not dating, and to take it a step further, they've never even met each other.

The speculation started after fans noticed the NBA superstar and the "Outer Banks" actress followed each other on Instagram, sparking romance rumors amid Luka’s recent split from Anamaria Goltes.

Katy Perry may be grown, but she seems to be living her teenage dream with Justin Trudeau.

The pop star took to Instagram to show off the things in her life that are most important to her, and Justin made the list … twice!

KP included a sweet selfie with the former Canadian Prime Minister in a new carousel, which she captioned … “You are the treasure you seek.”

In the new pic, she’s resting her head on Justin’s cheek while smiling down at the camera.

She also posted a cute shot of JT holding a pipe-cleaner wand in front of his face.

North West is making some new noise in the music game, 'cause the first snippet from her latest collab just dropped, and it looks like total chaos ... in the most fun way!

Check it out -- the 12-year-old goes all in on the track "Don’t Care," shared by Mag!c (a protégé of her dad Ye) -- rocking her signature blue hair and clearly having a blast in the clip.

No word yet on when the full music video is dropping -- but if this teaser is anything to go by, these two could be cooking up a serious Gen Alpha hip-hop moment.

Some folks are unimpressed with Bam Adebayo's 83-point game ... including Houston Rockets head coach Ime Udoka, who told reporters he had no idea how the Miami Heat player could score at will like that -- until he looked at the box score.

The 48-year-old former pro met with the media after his team secured a 113-99 win over the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday ... and was asked what he thought about the big man's historic night at home against the Washington Wizards.

"First thing you think is 'how?' -- not because of him, but because of the way he plays," Udoka said. "And I saw he only made six threes but 40 free throws or something like that? Tells the story right there ... and the Washington Wizards."

Gavin Newsom is having some fun at the expense of Pete Hegseth, slamming the Department of War Secretary for going on a $93 billion taxpayer-funded spending spree to buy pricey steaks, lobsters and crabs.

The California Governor, and likely 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, ripped Hegseth for his lavish spending habits during the last month of the fiscal year in September 2025, according to government watchdog Open the Books. The watchdog highlighted that Hegseth's bulk purchases were the largest of any federal agency since 2008.

As a result, Newsom's press office took a monster-size shot at Hegseth, writing in all caps on X Tuesday, “HEGSETH BLOWING $93 BILLION OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS IN 1 MONTH !!”

Suni Lee did it big for her 23rd birthday ... making her way to Turks & Caicos with her friends for a poolside party -- and the views were gold-medal worthy!!

The Team USA gymnast -- whose special day is March 9 -- documented the trip on social media ... showing the group rocking "I heart Suni Lee" shirts and surprising her with "happy birthday" balloons.

But the highlight of the trip was apparently lounging by the water ... which turned into the backdrop for some TikToks.

Suni and her crew hopped in front of the camera to show off their moves ... as well as the sick setup they had at the mansion.

Anwar Hadid -- the brother of Gigi and Bella Hadid -- claims a woman he blocked online escalated from persistent social media messages to allegedly standing inside his bedroom while he slept ... TMZ has learned.

According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, the model filed for a temporary restraining order, claiming the woman has engaged in a "knowing and willful course of conduct" directed at him since at least December 31, 2023.

According to the filing, things began with unwanted online contact. Anwar claims that after he blocked her, the woman created new Instagram accounts throughout 2024 and 2025 to continue messaging him.

Los Angeles is still reeling from the terrifying shooting at Rihanna's home Sunday ... and we have video of authorities racing to get to the bottom of it.

Yellow caution tape closed off the block today as an officer at the crime scene told us the investigation is still ongoing.

As we reported ... a 35-year-old woman named Ivanna Lisette Ortiz has been booked for attempted murder after allegedly firing multiple rounds into Rihanna's home from her car.

Rihanna was home at the time but it's unclear whether A$AP Rocky or their children were with her.

Ivanna Lisette Ortiz -- the 35-year-old woman accused of shooting at Rihanna's home on Sunday -- apparently posted a bizarre message addressing the singer just weeks before the incident.

A February 23 Facebook post from Ortiz's account reads ... "@badgalriri Are you there? Cause I was waiting for your AIDS 5-head self to say something to me directly instead of sneaking around like you talking to me where I'm not at."

In another post, Ortiz allegedly shared an eerie video mentioning Cardi B.

Tom Brady and Alix Earle aren’t doing much to quiet those dating rumors ... the two just popped up at the same glitzy event!

Before anyone calls it an official couple's debut, though ... they played it smart, not posing together at the opening preview of the new Zero Bond location at Wynn Las Vegas on Saturday.

The retired quarterback was all smiles, snapping pics with big names like Michael Rubin, LeBron James, and Corey Gamble ... while influencer Alix kept things cute in a baby-blue look as she posed with friends.

Neither has confirmed they’re dating, and it’s possible they just run in the same circles. But as we reported last month ... sources told us the two were showing a pretty strong spark when they were both in San Francisco for Super Bowl festivities.

Yes, there’s a noticeable age gap ... but Brady’s been single since his split from Gisele Bündchen, and Alix recently called it quits with Braxton Berrios ... so the timing lines up.

Logan Paul wasn’t making it up when he said WWE stepped in and shut down his $1 million fight challenge to NFL players -- because TMZ Sports has learned the company really did make the call.

A WWE source tells us executives contacted the social media star directly and made it clear they don’t want him stepping into a boxing ring with football players right now due to his wrestling commitments.

The directive comes after Paul boldly claimed “not a single football player could beat me in a boxing match” and offered up $1 million to anyone willing to prove him wrong.

Several players quickly jumped at the opportunity -- including Le’Veon Bell, Dion Dawkins, Tae Crowder, Brock Hoff and Breiden Fehoko -- all signaling they’d happily lace up the gloves.

But before anything could materialize, Paul said WWE told him the fights were off -- no other excuses, we're told.

Selena Gomez is ridin' for her hubby Benny Blanco as he ropes in his 38th birthday ... showing him some love in cowboy style.

SG hopped on IG Sunday to share snaps from Benny’s birthday bash ... which looked like a full-on hoedown -- with Selena rocking cutoff jean shorts, a buttoned-up top, and spiked black boots.

In one pic, she leans in to plant a kiss on Benny’s lips on the dance floor ... captioning the post, “Happy birthday cowboy.”

Jennifer Runyon -- the actress known for her roles in "Ghostbusters and "Charles in Charge" -- has died.

Her family shared the news in a Facebook post, writing, "This past Friday night our beloved Jennifer passed away. It was a long and arduous journey that ended with her surrounded by her family."

They added she will "always be remembered for her love of life and her devotion to her family and friends," ending the tribute with, "Rest in peace our Jenn."

James Van Der Beek clearly raised some great kids ... his 9-year-old daughter, Emilia, showed wisdom way beyond her years Sunday in an emotional video honoring her late father on what would have been his 49th birthday.

In the clip, posted on mom Kimberly Van Der Beek's Instagram, Emilia says, "So today is my dad's birthday, and the number one thing for somebody's passing is to talk to them and let your emotions out. If you miss them, you can cry. You can talk to them. I talk to my dad every day. I start with a sentence, and I say, 'Hi, Dad. I miss you and I love you so much, and I'll never stop loving you.'"

She continued ... "I know that my dad's in a good place. He's not in pain anymore. He's in heaven above the clouds with God and the Lord."

The NFL's toughest players are so lucky the WWE is holding Logan Paul back from fighting them ... at least according to a tweet Logan posted today.

As you know ... the YouTuber-turned-WWE Superstar threw down a challenge, claiming no football player could beat him in a boxing match -- and offered $1 million to anyone willing to try. Well, there were a lot of people chomping at the bit. From former running back Le'Veon Bell to 6'3", 300-pound nose tackle Breiden Fehoko, it seemed like almost everyone wanted a piece of Logan if the opportunity presented itself.

Now, it looks like the offer is off the table ... and Logan is blaming his superiors.

Maxx Crosby posted a bittersweet goodbye to Raider Nation on Saturday ... but it looks like he's still in disbelief that his time in Las Vegas is ending.

The NFL star said, "I can't believe that this is a real thing. It's been 7 years being with the nation. Raider Nation has given me everything."

And he gave everything right back to the nation ... he was selected for the Pro Bowl 5 consecutive times while suiting up in silver and black. But, having ultimately fallen short of his goal of bringing a Lombardi trophy back to the Raiders, Crosby said he felt like he let the fans down.
