Teddi Mellencamp's sending out a gentle reminder to her myriad of fans ... telling them she's going out and having fun as a coping mechanism -- but, everyone deals with difficulties in their own way.

The reality television star shared several clips to her Instagram story late Saturday night and early Sunday morning ... and, she kicks off the vids by saying she's going out and having fun as a coping mechanism.

Teddi says it helps keep her mind off her recent health struggles ... but, she adds that not everyone needs to do the same as her in order to come to terms with the difficult parts of their lives.

Kristin Cavallari is super close to selling her Nashville area home ... 'cause TMZ has learned she's secured a buyer.

Real estate sources tell us ... the "Lets Be Honest" podcast host's $8.9 million home in Franklin, TN is currently under contract as of Friday.

We broke the story ... Kristin listed the 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom farmhouse in June of last year. She scooped up the property for over $3 million following her 2020 split from her ex-husband Jay Cutler.

HBO's hit show "The White Lotus" has captivated audiences with its luxurious locations, impeccable acting and full frontal nudity. Buckle up, because we're about to rock your boat with these behind-the-scenes shots!

The all-star cast -- which is composed of stars like Thai singer Lisa, Leslie Bibb, Michelle Monaghan, Jason Isaacs, Parker Posey and Patrick Schwarzenegger -- each bring their acting flare, humor and drama to their characters.

One of the groups traveling to the serene White Lotus hotel is The Ratliff crew -- the wealthy family from Durham, North Carolina who seemingly have dysfunctional dynamics, however, here's a shot of the actors leaning in for a friendly pic while their mics weren't hot.

Eva Longoria's looks over the years are 50 and FABULOUS!

Here is a 30-year-old version of the Hollywood star droppin' jaws with her effortless beauty at a movie screening in Cannes, France back in 2005 (left). This was one year after she became a household name playing Gabrielle Solis on "Desperate Housewives."

And, 20 years later ... clearly not much has changed! Eva recently pulled her long(oria) hair back at a Major League Soccer match in Fort Lauderdale, Florida (right) -- and proved her stunning appearance with a bright white smile!

We know her looks are far from looking half a century old, but the question here is:

Chris Eubank Jr. and Connor Benn's fight is still a few weeks away ... but, their feud is far from over -- 'cause the two boxers couldn't even get through an interview without nearly beating each other up.

The two boxers stopped by "Piers Morgan Uncensored" to talk about their upcoming fight ... and to discuss the viral moment a few weeks ago when Eubank slapped Benn with an egg.

ICYMI ... the two men faced-off at a promotional event in Manchester at the end of last month -- when Chris whipped out an egg and smashed it against the side of Connor's face.

Candiace Dillard Bassett is showing love to her former 'Real Housewives' costar Karen Huger ... saying she feels for her after her DUI sentencing -- and reminding those rushing to judgment that we all have our own struggles.

We caught up with Candiace -- who starred on "The Real Housewives of the Potomac" from 2018 to 2024 -- outside Better Brothers Los Angeles' Truth Awards, a night to honor members of the Black LGBTQ+ community for the good work they do as well as to give out scholarships to LGBTQ+ youth.

Our photog asked her about Huger who was sentenced to one year in prison last month for a March 2024 crash ... and, she says she's "devastated" for Karen and her family.

"The Mandalorian" fans will be pulling out their wallets and saying "This is the way" for this new auction item ... a lightsaber used in the show and wielded by Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill!

GWS Auction has put the saber up for sale ... starting the bidding at $25K -- so, a super Star Wars fan is going to need to empty the bank account for this one.

According to the site, two versions of the lightsaber -- a metal one called a "hero" lightsaber used for close-up shots and inserts and a lighter "stunt" lightsaber used in general shots and action sequences. This is the stunt lightsaber.

Eva Longoria's turns the big 5-0 today ... and, we've got all her hottest shots to commemorate the golden anniversary of her birth!

The triple threat -- who acts, directs and runs multiple successful businesses -- is still a Hollywood heartthrob ... and, whether she's in a dress or a bikini, she's always catching people's eyes.

Check out this pic ... where Eva looks like a red rose on a sandy beach, flipping her hair while strutting down the shore.

Jay Leno doesn't just bring comedic firepower to any place he shows up ... he's bringing literal firepower, too -- 'cause he rolled around the L.A. streets in a freaking tank!

The comedian was caught by a couple locals driving slowly down a residential street ... with his head popping out the beast. Unclear if its the real deal or a ride tricked out to look like a tank -- but he's steering it like a pro, regardless.

It's outfitted with a massive gun ... though we doubt Jay could actually conquer any territories with it. However, it's certainly intimidating -- even if Leno isn't since he pulled over to have a fun convo with the dudes filming him.

Amber Portwood apparently is no longer a part of "Teen Mom" ... but she's saying don't get it twisted -- she wasn't fired -- she threw in the towel for her mental health.

Amber recently did a TikTok Live ... shutting down rumors she was axed from the popular MTV series, saying the decision to bounce was all hers -- and she split "three days ago."

This isn't the first time she's addressed the rumors that she was booted -- she jumped on another Live earlier this week to talk about it ... but this is the first time she's straight-up said she was the one who pulled the plug.

Jason Isaacs is in the hot seat after saying he was sick of being asked if it was really his dong on full display this season of "The White Lotus" ... and he is over the double standard.

Jason railed against the hog query during his Friday appearance on “CBS Mornings" when it was brought up he was the latest actor in the popular HBO series to ... let it all hang out.

Noting he was well aware there was a debate online whether it was his legit junk or a prosthetic, JI said women going nude in film/ TV were not asked about body parts being real, so why was he being bombarded?

Bill Maher's head is spinning over the number of movies made about prostitutes, but he thinks a recent title change has created a lot of damage.

The 'Real Time' host seemed amused that Hollywood is now using the term "sex worker" instead of prostitute. Don't get him wrong -- he thinks "Anora" was a great flick, but it's part of a movement to whitewash the soul-crushing reality for lots of women in that biz.

Bill says using the term "sex worker" is really just virtue signaling, and as he puts it ... it's too benign a term. It makes it sound like an office job, and it's not.

Martin Kove is thrilled his old pal Sly Stallone has become a Hollywood ambassador via President Donald Trump ... 'cause he thinks the town has lost its magic by becoming too political -- and who better than "Rambo" to straighten things out?

TMZ caught up with the "Karate Kid" and "Cobra Kai" icon at LAX ... and he straight-up told us Sly is ready to sweep H'wood's leg if that's what needs to be done to bring back some artistic sensibility.

MK is confident Sly -- along with Jon Voight and Mel Gibson, also appointed by Trump -- will get Hollywood back to making quality entertainment -- and get the industry to scrap the soapboxes.

Will Smith announced Friday his new album was finally ready after "working on it for a grip" ... and he ain't lying because the last time he dropped was 20 years ago!!!

Last July, Big Will signed a distribution deal with independent record label SLANG, and his upcoming "Based On A True Story" is the first finished product of the deal.

He excitedly says he's going into auto-bio mode, even going so far as to label the tracks "episodes" and draping himself in Phillies gear for the album photo shoot.

Kyle Massey -- the former Disney Channel star -- is tying the knot ... and, his future wife is related to '80s Hollywood royalty.

Hana Giraldo -- the daughter of legendary rock singer Pat Benatar -- posted a photo to her Instagram Friday ... sharing a pic of the two beaming, with Hana extending her left ring finger to the sky to show off her new ring.

It's a massive rock, and Hana gives fans a close-up look at it in another photo ... adding "IM ENGAGED 💍 to my best friend, my soulmate, and my forever @kylemassey." Hana says she can't wait for their lives together to begin.

Wendy Williams is taking off the gloves when it comes to her guardianship ... going on national TV to blast her guardian and the judge overseeing her case, telling them to get off her neck.

The former talk show host called in to "The View" for a feisty interview that aired Friday ... saying she ultimately wants out of the guardianship, and at the very least needs a new guardian and a new judge.

Wendy's been beefing with guardian Sabrina Morrissey and Judge Lisa Sokoloff this week ... and she's turning up the heat.
