Kylie Jenner's full-on baby bump pic this week wasn't taken while she was on a casual stroll on a random dirt lot ... she was out with her eyes on another lavish home.

Kylie was at a construction site in Hidden Hills Wednesday, and according to building permits obtained by TMZ ... a mansion is in the offing. The building permit was issued in December, and here's what it calls for:

-- 9,187 sq. ft. first floor

-- 5,304 sq. ft. second floor

-- 2 huge garages (1,200 sq. ft and 1,468 sq. ft)

-- 1,836 sq. ft. of covered porches

-- A cabana for the pool

There's also an older permit for a retaining wall and one for the foundation. All in all, the permits value the job at more than $2.37 million ... but if she moves on it, Kylie's likely to drop way more loot.

We broke the story ... Kylie was with her mom and BFF this week scoping out the lot -- the first time pregnant Kylie had been spotted out in months.

Meghan Markle's on her way to joining the Royal Family, but before that, she had her sights set on becoming queen ... of the lollipop biz.

According to docs obtained by TMZ ... Meghan and a friend filed trademark paperwork back in 2012 for the term "Lali" -- with the apparent intention of selling their own line of lollipops and drops.

It evidently never panned out, because a little more than 2 years later they abandoned their trademark application ... and haven't filed anything since.

Good news for Markle, though -- if she ever wants to revive the "Lali" pops ... Royal protocol won't get in her way.

Aaron Schwartz -- whose first acting role was playing Dave Karp in "The Mighty Ducks" way back in 1992 -- is stoked the Quack Attack is coming back, and says he wants a piece of the action.

Aaron tells TMZ he's been in contact with some people involved with bringing the 'Ducks' back, and now that it's reportedly green-lit for a TV series reboot ... he's holding out hope he can play a part.

As for who should play the new group of young, misfit hockey players ... Schwartz has a suggestion that shouldn't seem too strange.

Oh and by the way, Aaron is ripped now ... so he could definitely hold his own on the ice.

"Battlestar Galactica" star Tricia Helfer is pulling the plug on her marriage ... TMZ has learned.

Helfer filed legal docs citing irreconcilable differences to end her marriage to Jonathan Marshall.

The couple has been married for more than 13 years. They have no minor children, so custody is not an issue.

According to the docs, they have a prenup separating their property, so it sounds like a pretty clean divorce.

She wants the judge to reject any claim for spousal support Marshall might make.

The docs say they separated back in May.

TMZ has obtained video ... allegedly showing Disney star Adam Hicks committing armed robbery, casually strolling to his getaway vehicle and driving away.

TMZ broke the story ... Hicks, who starred in "Zeke and Luther," "Pair of Kings," and "Lemonade Mouth," was arrested with his girlfriend for allegedly committing 4 or 5 armed robberies in the Burbank area.

The video shows a black SUV stop on a residential street and a man jump out of the vehicle, targeting a man who is walking to his car. You see the robber with a gun tucked under his arm standing with the man, who is clearly terrified. The victim hands over property and then bolts in fear.

The robber strolls to the waiting SUV, jumps in and the vehicle takes off.

Hicks and his girlfriend, actress Danni Tamburo, were both arrested and booked for armed robbery. They allegedly targeted people walking in the Burbank area, demanding money, cellphones and other items. Two of the other alleged victims are women in their 70s.

9:45 AM PT -- The L.A. County D.A. just charged Hicks and Tamburo with 2 counts of 2nd degree robbery, and 3 counts of attempted 2nd degree robbery ... all felonies. All the alleged incidents happened Wednesday, Jan. 24.

His bail's been set at $350,000 and hers is $300k.

Hicks faces up to 60 years in prison, if convicted, while Tamburo could be put away for 15 years.

The cruise on which "Storm Chasers" star Joel Taylor allegedly died of an OD continues to be party central ... with abundant drug use.

A "White Party" was held Thursday night on the cruise ship and passengers tell us drugs were everywhere ... including ketamine and ecstasy.

TMZ broke the story ... law enforcement sources tell us they believe Taylor's death was an OD. Passengers told us Taylor consumed enough GHB Monday night to lapse into unconsciousness on the dance floor. He was taken back to his room where he was later found unresponsive.

William Shatner had an unwanted visitor outside his home Thursday night, but when the suspicious man was confronted ... he took off at warp speed before cops could catch him.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the 'Star Trek' legend was at his San Fernando Valley home Thursday around 5 PM when an adult male wearing shorts was spotted outside peering into his house.

We're told someone by Shatner's residence went to ask the guy what he was up to, at which point he began pacing back and forth ... and then bolted.

Our sources say a 911 call was made and cops showed up within 5 minutes to search for the prowler, but he was long gone. Police spoke with the OG Captain Kirk to make sure everything was fine at his place, which it was.

We're told cops have upped patrols in the area and are still looking for the guy.

Joel Taylor's death is officially off the FBI's plate -- for now at least ... TMZ has learned.

Carlos Osorio -- a spokesman for the FBI's San Juan Division -- tells TMZ the feds have been pulled off the "Storm Chasers" star's case, and it's been passed back to local authorities.

Osorio says FBI members conducted a preliminary investigation on the cruise ship Taylor died on this week, and concluded his death was not the result of a violent crime. That, coupled with other factors he wouldn't elaborate on, made U.S. officials determine the case was no longer in the FBI's jurisdiction.

Here's the catch -- if it's determined Taylor's death is linked to murder ... we're told the feds could reopen the investigation. That doesn't seem likely -- Taylor's death appears to be tied to a drug OD.

As we reported ... Taylor was so out of it after consuming what we're told was GHB that he was rendered unconscious on the dance floor and had to be carried to his room. Passengers told us drug us was rampant on the cruise ship as passengers partied.

No arrests have been made, and local police in San Juan are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding Taylor's demise.

"Little Women: LA" star Briana Renee will not join the cast for season 7 ... TMZ has learned.

Production sources tell us Renee -- who has been on the show from its start -- chose not to sign back on at the end of season 6. We're told Bri already knew she'd be filing for divorce from husband Matt Grundhoffer, and she didn't want it to play out on camera.

Our sources say Bri will take the time off to focus on herself, her kids and her music career.

We're told producers won't replace Bri, and have already started production with the other 6 principal cast members.

STOP THE PRESSES ... a pregnant Kylie Jenner's been spotted out in the real world for the first time since September!!!

TMZ's obtained a shot of Kylie walking with her best friend, Jordyn Woods, and Kris Jenner following closely behind. The trio went to a construction site in Hidden Hills around noon Wednesday.

Check out the video ... it looks like she labors a bit as she gets into her SUV to leave.

As we reported ... Kylie showed her face this week for the first time in months in a Calvin Klein ad with her sisters, but kept her baby bump under wraps.

Sources close to her say she's due soon and, as we reported, baby daddy Travis Scott revealed to friends they're having a girl.

Disney star Adam Hicks has been arrested for armed robbery ... TMZ has learned.

Hicks, who has starred in "Zeke and Luther," "Pair of Kings" and "Lemonade Mouth" allegedly committed 4 or 5 armed robberies ... this according to law enforcement sources.

Our sources say 25-year-old Hicks and his girlfriend would go up to people walking in the San Fernando Valley area, stick a gun in their face and demand money, cellphones and other items.

We're told 2 of the victims are elderly women in their 70's.

SWAT went to a home Wednesday afternoon where Hicks was staying and arrested him for armed robbery.

We've learned Hicks has 2 prior arrests on his record, both last year in Los Angeles.

In July, he was busted for firing a gun, and in September for a battery. The D.A. rejected both cases for insufficient evidence.

Taryn Manning got a sweet deal on her SAG Awards outfit -- but she's pissed off, and wants a piece of the stylist who dared to deck her out in a ... wait for it ... $200 dress!

Taryn was still fuming about the gown Wednesday at LAX. Our photog tried to congratulate the 'OITNB' star on scoring the ensemble that most critics loved ... for the look and the price.

Well, talk about different perspectives. You gotta see what happened when we tried to give her props. Taryn's happy everyone else can go buy her dress -- Adrianna Papell at Macy's and Bloomingdales, btw -- but strongly believes she deserves better.

Hell hath no fury ...

Drew Carey ... COME ON DOWN!!! To the ground.

"The Price is Right" host might be nursing sore ribs after falling victim to a massive fail during Wednesday's show. A woman named Sona won the prelim round, and went HAM on Drew.

Luckily for the host, a light fixture kept him from toppling completely off the stage after the wild bear hug -- or this vid would be a lot less funny. Carey popped up like a true pro.

10:50 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, "It appears the death could be an overdose and Joel Taylor was consuming controlled substances."

A passenger who interacted with Joel tells TMZ, Joel had consumed enough GHB on the dance floor Tuesday that he was rendered unconscious and taken off the dance floor by 2 people and back to his room.

"Storm Chaser" star Joel Taylor died from a suspected overdose on a cruise ship ... this according to passengers on the boat.

Passengers on the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line Harmony of the Seas tell TMZ ... drugs on the party boat were plentiful, and they say 38-year-old Taylor was partaking.

A rep for the boat tells us Taylor was found unresponsive in his cabin Tuesday and law enforcement was alerted when the boat arrived in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

We're told among the drugs ... Ecstasy and cocaine. Passengers even posted on social media when they were boarding that several people were arrested at the Ft. Lauderdale port -- where the boat departed -- for possession of drugs.

Olivia Newton-John and famous DJ duo Galantis both performed on the boat Tuesday night.

A clash has been a brewin' between the casts of "Little Women: Atlanta" and its Dallas sister show thanks to a bunch of online trash talking, and -- no surprise -- things got real physical.

The fight broke out between Atlanta's Sam Ortiz and Dallas' Caylea Woodbury during a talent showcase being thrown by Ms. Juicy for the new season of 'LW:ATL.'

Caylea, who raps under the alias Lil Twrk, came up from the Big D with her rapper BF D'Quan Cage to participate, but things got outta hand.

The casts from the 2 cities have been going at it for awhile, and while D'Quan gets points for chivalry, someone's not leaving with a dry eye ... or rather, just dry.

One of the guys who played Tinky Winky -- the allegedly gay Teletubby -- has died.

Simon Shelton died last week, according to his son, who told the BBC his dad passed last Wednesday. Shelton's niece, Emily Atack, said her uncle was "taken so suddenly."

Simon scored the "Teletubbies" role as the purple Teletubby after the original actor was fired in 1997. He stayed in the purple suit through 2001.

Tinky Winky was accused of being gay by deceased televangelist Jerry Falwell, who once wrote ... "He is purple -- the gay pride color, and his antenna is shaped like a triangle -- the gay pride symbol."

Yes, that actually happened.

Shelton was 52. RIP
