Pete Davidson Ex Cazzie David Was Other Girl He Proposed To

Published | Updated

Pete Davidson joked he was "0 for 3" in a new 'SNL' promo in which he proposed to a new chick -- and now we know who the third girl is ... Larry David's daughter.

Sources tell us that Pete had proposed to Cazzie David multiple times during their two-year relationship. The exact number of times isn't clear, but we're told it was definitely more than once. Our sources say Cazzie rejected his offer each time.

They split in May before Pete got with, and eventually proposed to, Ariana Grande. As you know, the rest is history.

As we reported ... Ariana took some shots at Pete in since-deleted tweets, saying, "for somebody who claims to hate relevancy u sure love clinging to it huh. thank u, next."

Sources close to the former couple tell us Ariana felt betrayed by Pete's remarks, because they'd both agreed to not talk about their split in public. We're told Pete's now scrapping any further references to their breakup for this weekend's show, and Lorne Michaels signed off.

There was speculation as to who Pete was referencing when he dropped the "0 for 3" line, because he's dated a handful of chicks over the years, including "Girl Code" star Carly Aquilino -- whom he dated before Cazzie.

But, we've been assured ... that third chick is absolutely Cazzie, who's since scrubbed her IG of any Pete references. Seems to be a pattern with his exes.

ARRESTED AND TAKEN WAY

7:11 PM PT -- Alec has denied the allegations on Twitter, stating, "Normally, I would not comment on something as egregiously misstated as today's story. However, the assertion that I punched anyone over a parking spot is false. I wanted to go on the record stating as such."

LEAVING THE PRECINCT

1:30 PM PT -- Baldwin was just released and said nothing as he left the police station.

12:56 PM PT -- Baldwin has been charged with misdemeanor assault and harassment. He was given a desk appearance ticket.

Alec Baldwin was arrested in NYC Friday morning ... TMZ has learned.

Witnesses tell us ... the actor got into an argument with another man over a parking spot near 10th Street and 5th Avenue. Our law enforcement sources tell us Alec had a friend holding the spot for him, but the other man swooped in.

We're told Baldwin became irate, an argument ensued, and Baldwin punched the man in the jaw. The alleged victim, a 49-year-old male, was taken to the hospital.

One witness tells us Alec yelled "F**k off" during the fight. Cops were called and Alec was arrested. Baldwin lives in the area.

Of course, he openly detests and mocks President Trump while playing him on 'SNL' -- so, not surprisingly, the Prez weighed in on the arrest. What is shocking is how reserved he was.

'DWTS' Champ J.R. Martinez 'Better Call Saul' Amputee Messed Up But I'll Give Him a Pass, If ...

Published | Updated

The "Better Call Saul" actor who made headlines this week for falsely presenting himself as a war vet, deserves a chance to make good in Hollywood ... according to real Army vet and actor J.R. Martinez.

J.R. -- who won "Dancing With the Stars" in 2011 -- tells us Todd LaTourrette's admission he lied for years about how he lost his arm in order to score acting roles ... is absolutely despicable. Still, he's willing to give LaTourrette a pass, if he's serious about shedding light on mental illness.

If you missed it, LaTourrette confessed to KOB-TV he'd cut off his arm 17 years ago during a bipolar episode. When he started acting, he told producers he'd been wounded during military service. He says the lie worked for years and helped him score the role of Skell on 'Saul.'

J.R. says he appreciates Todd copping to the lie. He added, IF Todd puts "action" behind his promise to raise mental health awareness ... there's no reason he can't keep acting.

Interestingly, J.R. feels producers and casting directors also bare some blame. Check out his take ... he seems to be saying Hollywood owes it to real vets to make sure they're being authentically represented.

INSPIRED BY ART

UFC star Israel Adesanya is such a big anime freak, he got an INSANE stomach tattoo inspired by his favorite shows ... and he's giving TMZ Sports the breakdown!!

Adesanya -- whose nickname "The Style Bender" comes from the popular Nickelodeon series "Avatar: The Last Airbender" -- says his motivation comes from the characters in the uber-popular "Naruto" and 'Avatar.'

You can see part of Israel's stomach tat is inspired by Naruto's stomach tat from the show.

If you have no idea what the hell any of this means, click here and here and here.

Adesanya has a BUNCH of different cartoon tattoos -- he even has Deadpool!! -- and, together, they make up one unique and interesting collection.

BTW -- Israel's fighting Derek Brunson at UFC 230 ... so we'll see if he can harness Naruto's energy on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden.

Norm Macdonald I'm Not Nearly As Offensive or As Funny!!!

CATERING TO THE 1%

Norm Macdonald says you won't be offended at his comedy shows anymore .. but you also won't laugh your ass off. Such is reality and it sucks.

We got Norm Friday afternoon at LAX and asked if he's walking on eggshells given his propensity to push the envelope and offend his audience. You'll recall Norm caught tons of backlash for defending Roseanne and Louis C.K.

Norm tried to dig himself out of that hole ... but things got worse before a mea culpa on "The View."

Fact is ... Norm trying to please the PC police has severely dented the comedic process. And, btw ... Howie Mandel agrees. Norm longs for the days when a comedian could go way over the line, rein himself back to the line ... but not go over it.

That's no longer the case ... and the 1% is to blame.

Reza from 'Shahs of Sunset' Hate Trump's 'GoT' Meme But I Support His Iran Sanctions

Published | Updated

When it comes to President Trump firing off "Game of Thrones" memes to announce U.S. foreign policy in Iran, a "Shahs of Sunset" star says ... hate the messenger, but LOVE the message.

We ran into Reza Farahan Friday on Rodeo Drive in Bev Hills and, seeing as how he was born in Tehran, we had to get his take on Trump's "Sanctions Are Coming" tweet. Perhaps surprisingly, Reza fully supports POTUS and his hard line with Iran ... but there's a catch.

Watch the clip, you can tell it pains Reza to no end to say he's lockstep with Trump -- but says he's trying to focus on the big picture for his friends and family in Iran.

But, don't get it twisted ... he HATES the 'GoT' ripoff the White House used to announce the sanctions. Mostly because it's incredibly insensitive to the very people he claims to be helping with the sanctions!

Reza's got some choice words for Trump and his social media team.

'Too Stupid to Die' Stars Bitch Slaps with Taped Thumbtacks Watch the Bloody Mess!!!

Published | Updated

"Too Stupid to Die" stars sure know how to get a kick outta slapping each other ... blood, cuts and scars be damned.

Chad Tepper and Zach Holmes appeared on "TMZ Live" Friday and told us a little bit about why they enjoy taking on the roles of this generation's "Jackass" ... taking a LOT from the playbook of Bam Margera and Steve-O. Chad and Zach summed it up with one word ... boredom!!

If you don't know ... Chad and Zach's new show on MTV -- which premieres Friday night at 9:30 -- has them putting themselves through some of the most ridiculous stunts ... like when Zach threw on a firecracker vest. You can guess it didn't go too well for Zach.

And, just for fun -- again, their words -- Chad and Zach had a little something up their sleeve for us. Actually, more like on their hands -- taped with thumbtacks, for a little slap game.

It goes without saying ... kids, do not try this at home.

Jillian Barberie F*** Cancer!!! My Boobs Were 'Real and Spectacular'

Published | Updated

Jillian Barberie has the most awesome way of saying, "F**k cancer" -- on the heels of announcing she's been diagnosed with breast cancer, she's celebrating her girls ... and yes, that means her boobs.

The former Fox personality -- for "Good Day LA" and FOX NFL -- tweeted Thursday ... just as she got the news ... that she had cancer in one breast, and it had spread to her lymph nodes. Jillian said she was going to share her journey with all her fans on social media.

True to form, Jillian tweeted Friday about her plans for a double mastectomy, and said her boobs had served her well. As JB put it, "They were real and spectacular and fed two babies!! Time to say farewell next Friday." She included a bunch of throwback bikini pics. Gotta love her spirit.

Jillian says she's having surgery next Friday, and will have reconstructive surgery later.

We're wishing her the best.

Kim Kardashian West All Aboard the Elephant Express!!

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian West is no queen of the jungle ... but certainly looks the part riding a giant elephant during her family trip to Bali.

Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Scott and their kids all made the trip last week. The group was flown to an elephant sanctuary on a private helicopter where they spent several hours and got up close and personal with the gentle giants.

You can see from the pics, Kim didn't hesitate to get on for a quick ride around the park ... and Kourtney joined in too.

Kanye wasn't on the trip -- we're told he stayed back because of work commitments.

The family is back home now, but 'KUWTK' cameras captured most of the vacation, so there's plenty more to come.

HBO Yo, Trump ... Lay Off Our 'Game of Thrones' Line!!!

Published | Updated

Donald Trump used "Game of Thrones" to warn he was about to impose sanctions on Iran -- and while his supporters might've been amused ... HBO definitely is not.

A rep for the cable network tells TMZ ... "We were not aware of this messaging and would prefer our trademark not be misappropriated for political purposes."

In case you missed it, President Trump tweeted out a meme of himself with a 'GoT'-esque background and font that read ... "Sanctions are Coming."

It's an obvious nod to the hit series' oft-repeated line, "Winter is Coming" ... and it looks like he was trying to portray himself as Jon Snow (or maybe the Mad King?).

Either way, it's clear HBO is not down for the shout-out ... or the use of its font and background. Unclear if they plan on taking any further steps -- like a cease and desist letter or a lawsuit -- to keep Trump out of Westeros ... but this definitely sounds like a warning shot.

Ilana Glazer Synagogue Event Canceled After 'Kill All Jews' Vandalism

Published | Updated

Ilana Glazer was forced to cancel a political event Thursday night when cops revealed vandals had left anti-Semitic slurs all over the walls of the synagogue where her event was being held.

The "Broad City" star was about to host a panel discussion with 2 NY State Senate candidates when NYPD let her know they'd found the words, "Kill all Jews" scrawled on a wall inside the Brooklyn synagogue. Cops say they found other slurs as well.

Ilana decided to pull the plug out of caution ... especially on the heels of last weekend's horrific mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.

Audience members had waited for about an hour in Brooklyn, and Ilana herself came out to address the crowd. She seemed unshaken as she promised there would be other events planned soon, and thanked everyone for coming.

Unbowed, she said, "Let's change the world."

Les Moonves I'm Not Looking for a New Gig ... Julie Chen Plays it Coy

Published | Updated

Les Moonves could be boasting about all the money CBS just made under his leadership, but instead he's insisting he's done with the TV biz ... for good.

We got the ex-CBS honcho and his wife, Julie Chen, Thursday night after their meal at Madeo in Bev Hills ... and it was clear they're gonna play things close to the vest. We asked Les about the great financial news his old network had just announced -- revenues up about 3% in the 3rd quarter ... essentially his final months before getting pushed out over sexual misconduct allegations.

Les was a man of few words, telling us, "I'm retired," and it didn't sound like he's anxious to change that status. As for the ex-'Talk' cohost -- we suggested she get back in the saddle, but watch the video.

The look on Julie's face either says, "not interested"... or "I know something you don't."

Coy ... it's the Moonves family game plan.

'Brady Bunch' House OG Cast Stages Family Reunion ... Shooting with HGTV

Published | Updated

It's throwback Thursday at the famous 'Brady Bunch' house, where the main cast from the 1970s sitcom is getting back together to shoot for HGTV's new show about the groovy makeover going down at their old crib.

As you can see in our pics ... Marcia, Greg, Peter and Bobby Brady -- otherwise known as Maureen McCormick, Barry Williams, Christopher Knight and Mike Lookinland -- staged a mini-reunion at the site of the Studio City, CA home used for exteriors on the show.

Greg and Marcia, Marcia, Marcia looked especially close. Oh, and don't worry ... Eve Plumb and Susan Olsen (Jan and Cindy) were also there, but stayed out of view of our camera.

We broke the story ... after scooping up the property in a $3-plus million deal, HGTV plans to blow out the home's interior and backyard to make a replica of the sitcom set. The project will expand the home from 2,400 sq ft to more than 6,000 sq ft.

Obviously, this will also require cheesing up the place, making it 1973 authentic with cottage cheese ceilings and all to duplicate the show.

As we reported, neighbors were PISSED OFF by expansion plans -- but, if you ask us, seeing the Bradys on the block is pretty cool. We suggest the whole Bunch go door-to-door to ease tensions.

Heather Locklear Lawsuit on The Way For Attacking EMT

Published | Updated

Heather Locklear is a day away from getting sued by a paramedic who claims she was viciously attacked and injured during a drunken episode that landed the actress in a jail.

TMZ broke the story ... Locklear went ballistic at her L.A. home back in June after cops showed up after getting a call from a family member saying Heather was heavily intoxicated and out of control.

When authorities arrived Heather was extremely agitated and allegedly punched a cop who was trying to separate her from her family. EMT's then tried putting her on a gurney and Heather allegedly kicked the paramedic who is about to sue her.

The paramedic will claim in her lawsuit she suffered head and neck injuries, and it was so bad she was confined to a desk job. The lawsuit, which will be filed by attorney Kevin Flahavan, will also allege Heather verbally abused the EMT.

Heather was released and was later rushed to the ER for an apparent overdose the same day. She went from the hospital into rehab for substance abuse and mental health issues.

As for the criminal case ... Heather's been charged with interfering with a law enforcement officer and 2 counts of battery. That case is pending.

Beto O'Rourke Raking In Ca$h From Hollywood

Published | Updated

Beto O'Rourke is trying to ride the blue wave in the Texas senate race, and if he pulls off a huge upset and unseats Sen. Ted Cruz, he's gonna be thanking the green wave coming from Tinseltown.

We dug through 2018 Federal Election Commission filings to see which celebs were bucking up for Beto, and found lots of big contributions.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Jimmy Kimmel and Rosie O'Donnell have each thrown down $2,700 ... while Chelsea Handler plunked down $2,500 and Chris Rock has tossed in $1,000.

Beto also got $5,400 each from Connie Britton, Tate Donovan and 'Star Wars' director Rian Johnson.

Ilana Glazer dropped $2k and Ike Barinholtz chipped in $1,500.

We also found a $5,000 donation from Margot Perot, which is super interesting considering she's the wife of Ross Perot, the Texas mogul who failed twice in his bid for president.

Beto also cashed some fat checks from two huge screenwriters ... $5,400 each from David Koepp ("Jurassic Park" and "Mission: Impossible") and Nicholas Kazan ("Matilda" and "Enough").

TIMES ARE CHANGIN'

Beto is currently behind Cruz in the polls ... but 'Real Housewives of Dallas' star D'Andra Simmons still thinks the Congressman has a real shot to pull off an upset ... and the money flowing in from celebs is certainly playing a role in the most closely-watched election in the country.

Alex Trebek Answer: 2022 Question: How Long I'm Staying on 'Jeopardy!'

Published | Updated

Alex Trebek is sticking around on "Jeopardy!" for at least a few more years -- the host just agreed to a contract extension after making a lot of noise about retirement.

Alex's new deal with Sony Pictures TV will keep him dropping clues through the 2021-22 TV season, and you gotta figure they backed up the Brinks truck for him. Remember, he flat out told Harvey Levin earlier this year on "OBJECTified" ... there was a better chance than not he'd step down when his contract ended in 2020.

Alex even talked about possible replacements, certainly making it seem he was dead serious about quitting.

Seems like a brilliant negotiating move -- although we don't know for sure that was his goal -- because Sony locked him down for 2 additional years. AT's been hosting "Jeopardy!" since 1984.

Our advice? Don't blow all of that new salary in Final Jeopardy, Alex!
