Actress Christy Carlson Romano isn't biting her tongue about her former costar, Shia LaBeouf ... looking back on their time on Disney's "Even Stevens," she says they mixed like "oil and water."

Christy sat down for an interview with Amanda Hirsch on Amanda's podcast, "Not Skinny But Not Fat," and, at one point, their convo turned to Shia and Christy's interactions on the "Even Stevens" set. 

At the time, Romano was 14, and Shia was 12 ... and she says he had a "very chaotic and very scary lifestyle, and he was very young to be having that.”

Her cheeks and jaw look swollen after the surgery ... and she's not smiling in any of the pics. Unclear if she can smile even if she wants to.

Could you imagine a world where Erika Kirk is a Bravolebrity? Well, it almost happened ... at least according to Charlie Kirk's widow.

Ms. Pat is calling out Judge Judy for saying unhappy Americans should "go somewhere else" ... she says it's insensitive and stems from Judy's rich, white privilege.

We got Ms. Pat in New York City on Monday, and she didn't mince words when we asked her about her fellow TV judge ... she thinks Judy's out of her mind!

Ms. Pat says it's easy for Judy to get on her high horse ... because Judy is wealthy and white ... but it's not so simple for other folks ... namely, minorities.

Teresa Giudice is speaking out about her daughter Milania's recent mental health crisis ... asking the public to give her 20-year-old some space as she deals with "significant psychological trauma."

Teresa shared a lengthy statement on social media Monday, writing ... "As a mother, there is nothing more important to me than the health, safety, and well-being of my children."

She says the past few months have been "incredibly difficult" for the family, adding Milania has experienced "tremendous heartbreak and significant psychological trauma" after losing two of her best friends.

Jimmy Kimmel's taking aim at President Donald Trump's relationship with his assistant ... bringing in his own "assistant" who bears a striking resemblance to Natalie Harp.

Jimmy calls her his "assistant Natalie" ... no last name -- and she replies by calling him her "guardian" and "protector."

Brandi Glanville is determined to stop living in fear ... and she's taking the first step, or jump rather, by hopping out of a flying helicopter on "Special Forces" ... and it's all on video.

In an exclusive sneak peek of Thursday night's premiere, the reality TV star opens up about how her health struggles made her scared to leave her house. She says she wants to go "balls to the wall" in life, and that means being unafraid to take a leap.

Brandi's jump is full of dramatic buildup ... and she ties it back to her personal struggles before she follows through.

"The View" host Sunny Hostin just revealed she was the holdout juror who helped acquit an infamous NYC cannibal known as the Butcher of Tompkins Square Park ... and she spilled it all live on air.

On Tuesday's show, Sunny admitted that she relates to the 11 jurors who wanted to find Lindsay Clancy not criminally responsible for murder ... because she felt that self-confessed cannibal Daniel Rakowitz was also similarly not responsible.

The details of the 1991 case are super grim ... Rakowitz killed his roommate and aspiring dancer, Monika Beerle, dismembered her, boiled her remains, ate some and put the rest in a soup he served to the homeless in Tompkins Square Park.

1:16 PM PT -- Rosie O'Donnell's rep tells TMZ ... "Rosie had a conversation with Jimmy before she guest-hosted for him. She shared her idea about the Epstein survivors, and he told her it would be best for her to do it on YouTube. And she did. She had a great time hosting, loves Jimmy and the show."

Rosie O'Donnell wanted to have Jeffrey Epstein survivors on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" when she was a guest host last month ... but she says ABC nixed her pitch and told her that would never happen.

The former TV show host revealed the broadcaster's alleged editorial choice on an episode of "The Jann Arden Podcast" ... saying she wanted to spend her last night on the show chatting with victims of the infamous pedophile.

Rosie says she was told that her idea wasn't going to air ... so, instead, she did a video with 8 Epstein survivors and posted it to her social media account.
