He alerts them that they've changed locations and ushers them into a new stage ... opening the door for his former co-stars -- and symbolically commencing their collaboration for Season 2 of "Shifting Gears."

Patrick House -- the winner of "The Biggest Loser" Season 10 -- says he thinks the documentary wasn't completely fair to Jillian Michaels ... and, he's got nothing but wonderful things to say about the reality competition.

We caught up with the former reality star in light of the controversial Netflix documentary "Fit for TV: The Reality of the Biggest Loser" ... and, he says he declined to interview because he didn't know how the show would be painted.

House credits 'TBL' for saving his life ... admitting he was told he was a ticking time bomb when he joined the show -- and, now he's got kids, a wife and a whole new lease on life.

Dylan Walsh -- best known for his role as Dr. Sean McNamara on "Nip/Tuck" -- was involved in a serious car crash with his family over the weekend.

The accident happened on Sunday, August 17th, while Walsh and four other passengers were riding in a 2022 Ford Explorer in New Jersey.

According to the Rumson Police Department ... the vehicle was heading northbound when it suddenly veered into the southbound lane.

Congrats are in order for Ricky Schroder -- the former child star just tied the knot, and he’s grinning ear-to-ear in the wedding snaps.

The former "Silver Spoons" star posted the IG pics Wednesday ... showing him suited up on the beach, hand-in-hand with his new bride Julie -- who stunned in bridal white.

Ricky tells TMZ ... the ceremony was in Cabo at the Four Seasons on July 9th ... the couple got their license July 2 at the Ouray county courthouse.

Julie and Ricky were introduced through a mutual army friend, we're told ... and they're so grateful to have found understanding and comfort together. They wish the same for all.

Looks like the ceremony was wrapped in plenty of good faith, too -- Ricky even captioned the pics with a Bible verse.

A death announcement photo of the judge was shared to Instagram Wednesday afternoon ... revealing the judge died after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

Denise Richards has had it up to here with Aaron Phypers ... she's asking a judge to give him and his family the boot from their house so she can get her pets and belongings -- but Phypers' camp is calling BS on her latest legal move.

The actress filed documents with the court this week, asking a judge to order her estranged husband and his family to vacate -- for 8 hours -- the house the couple once shared, so she can retrieve her dogs, clothing, and her late mother's items.

Denise says the landlord recently messaged her asking her to pay rent on the Calabasas, California property ... but Denise says she stopped making payments in January after Aaron and his family refused to move out.

Simon Cowell dusted off his "Mr. Nasty" crown, making it clear Tom Sandoval -- AKA "the Most Hated Man in America" -- wasn’t about to charm his way to a win on his watch!

The Brit went full savage on the former "Vanderpump Rules" star and his band The Most Extras -- torching their pitchy jazz-rock take on The Weeknd’s "Blinding Lights" during Tuesday’s "America’s Got Talent."

Simon hated it so much he was the lone judge to slam his X buzzer ... then bluntly told Tom that while he liked him and the band, they just didn’t sound good.

"The Biggest Loser" caffeine feud just got piping hot -- 'cause TMZ scored a peek at the show’s grocery list for contestants ... and surprise, surprise, it’s stacked with caffeinated goodies!

Check the receipts from 2013 -- the list, which we obtained from Jillian Michaels, straight-up name-drops Organic Dark Roast, Starbucks grounds, and a bunch of different teas. The shopping list of "approved foods" for contestants was attached to an email that a show line producer sent to the trainers and other staffers.

Obviously, several of those items totally undercut Dr. Robert Huizenga’s claim to us the show was 100% caffeine-free from day one ... with coffee, diuretics, and weight-loss pills supposedly off-limits.

"Big Brother" star Rylie Jeffries' mom is defending his actions as fans call on the show to give him the boot over his allegedly "controlling" attitude toward love interest Katherine Woodman.

TMZ caught up with Michelle Jeffries after fans of the competition show turned on him for his "abusive" behavior ... and she says they have it all wrong, reasoning he simply seems "over the top on TV."

She explains ... "They're stuck in a house with no TV, no radios, no phones. They're getting to know each other on a personal level we don't understand. He's not some obsessive stalker-type person like everyone is saying. He's got a great heart and wears it on his sleeve."

12:07 PM PT -- A family source tells TMZ ... they believe Travis Renee Baldwin left her home around 3:20 AM Sunday to go to her son, Logan Chrisinger's, apartment to help with a crisis. We're told she was FaceTiming with her son that morning and he threatened he'd kill himself and flashed his gun.

The family is aware Chrisinger had mental issues going on, as he had threatened Baldwin previously ... even saying he would kill her and hope she died. Chrisinger has been under immense stress lately -- he lost his job and was worried about losing his apartment.

Baldwin is remembered by her family as a loving mom to her son and daughter, Adrianna. Her family says she would have done anything for her kids and her beloved pup Kai. She also loved her job and those she worked with.

Funeral plans have not yet been arranged.

Travis Renee Baldwin -- a Newsmax makeup artist who worked for Greta Van Susteren --  was fatally shot in Virginia over the weekend -- and police say her son pulled the trigger.

According to the Arlington County Police Department, Logan Chrisinger shot and killed his mom in an Arlington apartment Sunday morning, but his motive is still a mystery.

Officers were dispatched at 8:30 AM after receiving a report of a shooting and found Baldwin with an apparent gunshot wound and her son at the scene, police said. Baldwin was rushed to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Jillian Michaels didn't get along with every contestant on "The Biggest Loser" ... but, that doesn't mean she was handing out caffeine pills like a new documentary suggests -- so says one of the OG Losers.

We spoke with David Fioravanti -- a contestant from the first season of the show -- and, he details his contentious relationship with the fitness trainer and former coach on the show.

Fioravanti says he came into the show with a basic level of fitness knowledge ... so, he didn't follow everything Michaels said without question.

Kelly Clarkson’s keeping the show rolling after the tragic death of ex-hubby Brandon Blackstock -- TMZ’s confirmed she’s heading back to "The Voice" as a coach.

We’re told Kelly skipped one taping for Season 29 of NBC’s 'Battle of the Champions' earlier this month -- coming right after the heartbreaking news -- but Jennifer Hudson stepped in during rehearsals for the battle rounds.

Kelly’s reuniting with fellow champ coaches Adam Levine and John Legend -- and get this, the show’s cranking out two cycles at the same time.

Tiffani Thiessen was born January 23, but it'd be hard to tell from her recent video post, where she eats a cake ... apparently wearing nothing but her birthday suit!

The "Saved by the Bell" alum totally teased fans with her recent Instagram post ... appearing topless while enjoying her sweet treat ... and asking fans, "How do you eat it?"

Her caption -- "When it’s hot out, you gotta get naked…" -- made it clear she was commenting on the naked carrot cake instead of her naughty body -- so relax, Mr. Belding!

Jillian Michaels says Netflix’s "Biggest Loser" documentary isn't just full of lies -- it’s part of a long history of the franchise trying to take her down ... and she's giving TMZ all the receipts to prove it.

TMZ caught up with Jillian hot off her IG blast and lawsuit threat Tuesday, and she doubled down -- telling us the documentary paints a false picture, starting with Dr. Robert Huizenga claiming he never worked with her -- something she says is BS 'cause she's got hundreds of emails proving otherwise.

Listen to the full interview ... Jillian blasts the way the documentary twisted her role on the show, accusing Dr. H of dangerously yanking contestants off their meds cold turkey -- while she was the one stepping in to protect them.

Dr. Robert Huizenga isn’t about to let Jillian Michaels dominate the narrative -- he's firing back after she ripped him over Netflix's "The Biggest Loser" documentary ... telling TMZ her "receipts" don’t prove a thing.

Huizenga tells TMZ ... caffeine, weight-loss pills and diuretics were strictly banned from day one -- and anytime contestants claimed they were given such pills, he ordered production to shut down and launch an investigation.

He also points to the time Jillian had to give an on-air apology after being busted handing out pills to contestants to plug her own products -- saying that alone proves her caffeine claims are running on fumes.
