'The Bachelorette' Becca Eliminates Blake on Finale ... Our Photos Were Right!
Becca Kufrin just eliminated Blake Horstmann on the finale of '"The Bachelorette" -- which means Garrett Yrigoyen won her heart ... and our photos were spot-on!
The 'Bachelorette' star sent Blake packing on Monday's finale episode, and it's something we saw coming for a long time now. As you'll recall ... TMZ obtained photos of Becca making out with a dude in what appeared to be a big scene for her season.
We weren't quite familiar with her suitors at that point, but it's pretty obvious now this was Garrett all along. This fella's a dead ringer for the controversial contestant.
Speaking of that controversy ... it's unclear if Becca was aware of Garrett's old Instagram behavior while filming or in picking him to be her future husband. In a since-deleted IG account, Garrett was seen liking a number of offensive memes that mocked transgender people, immigrants and the Parkland shooting ... all of which surfaced during the season.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
He's since apologized for those likes and has even started up a new IG handle. Good luck with that, Becca ...

Miley and Liam No Rush to the Altar
Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth are amused by persistent rumors they're splitting up because they haven't tied the knot ... 'cause going to the altar isn't important and, in fact, it may never happen.
It may sound strange if you're older than 35, but sources directly connected to the couple say the formality of marriage isn't important. What they view as important are ... they love each other, they're happy and enjoy each other's company.
We asked the obvious question ... why then get engaged? We're told their engagement back in October 2016 was a symbol of commitment, but it was enough of a symbol for them. Miley has actually said she doesn't want to get married, despite the engagement. She doesn't think it makes a relationship better.
We're told privately they are as tight as any married couple, with very little drama. As one source put it, "They're both super chill and grounded. They're perfect for each other."
As for the breakup rumors ... they literally laugh them off.

Brittney Griner Engaged Again! After Disastrous 1st Marriage
Brittney Griner is gonna try the marriage thing again -- the WNBA star just proposed to her longtime girlfriend with a fat ring ... and she said YES!!
The Phoenix Mercury center popped the question to Cherelle Watson -- the two met while they were students back at Baylor.
Hopefully, Griner's 2nd time on the alter will go better than her first -- a 28-day marriage to fellow WNBA player Glory Johnson that ended in violence.
As we previously reported, both Griner and Johnson were arrested for domestic violence in 2015 after an argument turned physical ... and they ended up in a full-on fight in their Arizona home.
Johnson got pregnant with twins during their relationship -- and when they split, the judge ordered Griner to pay child support to Johnson.
Johnson reportedly moved on and began dating a man. Griner began her relationship with Watson shortly after.
In a social media post to Watson, Griner wrote ... "My best friend, my lover, my partner in life. I love you."
Good luck!

Nothing prudish about these shots of "Jane the Virgin" and Joe LoCicero frolicking Tuesday down in Tulum, Mexico. All this fun went down shortly after Gina posted shots of herself with a huge rock on her left ring finger -- so, they could be celebrating more than a bday.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Gina hasn't announced she and Joe are engaged ... yet, but she was still wearing the ring during their wet and wild makeout session. All signs suggest she said "yes."
Fun fact -- LoCicero is an actor too, best known for playing the role of Don Quixote Stripper on ... "Jane the Virgin."

Faith Evans & Stevie J Eyeing $40 Mil Yacht To Host Wedding Bash!!!
Faith Evans and Stevie J's quickie Vegas wedding ain't gonna cut it ... which is why they're planning a lavish Miami ceremony on a massive luxury yacht.
Sources close to the situation tell TMZ ... Faith and Stevie are serious about locking down The Vessel, a 222-foot yacht that's really more like a cruise ship. They recently toured the $40 million craft, and loved the fact it's got tons of space for up to 600 guests.
We're told Faith asked about the ability to film on the yacht, which has us thinking VH1 cameras will capture the elaborate ceremony for Stevie's reality show, "Leave It to Stevie."
The ceremony could smooth things over with friends and family who, as we first reported, were pissed the couple didn't give 'em a heads-up about the surprise marriage.
We're told Faith and Stevie didn't even discuss a budget when they toured The Vessel.
As they say ... if ya gotta ask, ya can't afford it.

Pete Davidson His Ariana Bunny Tattoo is Missing
3:00 PM PT -- Sources close to the couple tell us there is no trouble in paradise. Davidson covered up the ink temporarily for a movie role.
Pete Davidson appears to have wiped a symbol of his fiancee, Ariana Grande, off his body ... and now the question is ... why?
The 'SNL' star was spotted Sunday in L.A. without Ariana by his side -- but, more importantly, WITHOUT his jet-black neck tattoo of her trademark black bunny mask.
Pete got the Ariana-inspired ink behind his ear early last month by tattoo artist London Reese, who posted a shot of his work on social media at the time. Now, you can still see traces of the tattoo ... but it definitely looks more faded than what it once was.
He also got a thumb tat with Ariana's initials, but you can't tell here if he's still rockin' that.
Here's the thing ... Pete's in the middle of shooting a movie with Machine Gun Kelly right now, and it's quite possible that he simply had the tat covered with makeup for the job.
Pete and Ariana just recently got engaged, and he already reportedly covered up another forearm tat that was dedicated to his ex.

EXCLUSIVE
- 685 shares
Floyd Mayweather Sr. is now a married man -- TMZ Sports has learned the 65-year-old tied the knot in a low-key ceremony back in February ... and we've got the pics to prove it!
Sources connected to the situation tell us ... Floyd and Lois Ann Roberts hit up the Stained Glass Wedding Chapel in Vegas on February 4 and swapped "I Dos" in a very quick and quiet ceremony.
The place offers special Elvis-themed weddings -- but Floyd opted for the more traditional option. Too bad!
We're told Floyd's famous boxing superstar son was NOT at the wedding. However, our Mayweather sources say Floyd Jr. is really fond of Sr.'s new wife -- they've known each other for decades and he considered her family even before things became official.
Sooooo ... congrats!!!

Justin Bieber No More Tunes Before the Wedding ... That's a No Brainer, Bruh
Justin Bieber is getting his priorities in order on the heels of a new hit song ... implying that his wedding with Hailey Baldwin will come before any more new music.
JB was out with his fiancee Sunday in NYC when he got asked by a bunch of paps what's next after releasing a new track with DJ Khaled called "No Brainer." He didn't hesitate long for an answer ... Justin says getting married was the most immediate item on his agenda.
This also appears to be the first time Bieber acknowledges Hailey as his bride-to-be on camera. She was a bit more bashful than he was being put on the spot, but sure seemed to appreciate the sweet shout-out.
We broke the story ... Justin proposed to Hailey earlier this month in the Bahamas. She obviously said yes, and was more than happy to flaunt the huge engagement ring he bought for her ... which set him back $500,000 give or take.
They've been inseparable since getting engaged, and it seems even the prospect of conquering the charts isn't that a big deal to the Biebs with marriage on his mind.

Nick Jonas, Priyanka Chopra Will You Marry Me??? YES!!!
Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are reportedly engaged.
Nick popped the question a week ago ... the day coinciding with Priyanka's 36th birthday, according to People.
The mag says Nick got a Tiffany's store in NYC to shut down so he could buy the engagement ring on the DL.
Here's the thing ... as far as we can tell they've only been dating a little over 2 months.
They were seen together a while ago ... last year they posed at the Met Gala, but they said they were just friends. That seems to be the case, because Nick was dating other women after that. Remember back in March when Nick helped a woman who fell off a bike in Australia and was seen making out with her later that night. We later learned the 2 had been dating.
It seems something's in the air. TMZ broke the story Justin Bieber popped the question to Hailey Baldwin after just a month of dating. And Nick's older brother, Joe, got engaged to "Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner last October.
Congrats!

Model Karlie Kloss Engaged to Jared Kushner's Bro!!!
Model Karlie Kloss is down for the count ... she's engaged to Jared Kushner's baby brother, Joshua.
The face of Estée Lauder and Adidas announced Tuesday she said "yes a million times over" after Joshua popped the question. The 25-year-old model and the 33-year-old entrepreneur have been dating for around 6 years.
Joshua, of course, broke ranks back in March when he joined hundreds of thousands at the nation's capitol advocating for gun control. Karlie was also at that march. Joshua, whose brother Jared is a Trump senior adviser, also attended the Women's March in January 2017.
Unclear how Karlie and her soon-to-be sister-in-law Ivanka Trump will get along -- especially after Karlie said she voted for Hillary Clinton -- but one thing's for sure ... safe to say Karlie and Joshua won't argue about politics.
Congrats!!

Faith Evans' Marriage License No Mention of Marriage to Notorious B.I.G. ... She Blames The Court
Faith Evans married Notorious B.I.G. in '94, but you wouldn't know it based on her recent marriage license -- it makes no mention of her marriage to the legendary rapper -- but Faith is blaming the court for the error.
TMZ's obtained a copy of Faith's marriage license docs and in it she lists her marriage to Stevie J as marriage no. 2. The document references her divorce from Todd Russaw back in 2012, and that's the other marriage. So, what happened to Biggie?
As you know, Faith and Biggie -- labelmates with Bad Boy Records -- tied the knot back in August of 1994 within days of meeting each other. They separated shortly before his 1997 murder.
As for why the document seems to overlook the Faith/Biggie union. Faith tells us the clerk at the marriage license bureau screwed up. She insists she told the clerk the marriage with Stevie was her 3rd.
Evans adds, "Biggie was my first true love, he will always be acknowledged as such. Everyone knows he was my husband."
TMZ broke the story ... Faith and Stevie got married in their Vegas hotel room last week. The secret wedding, however, blindsided family and friends ... and they were not happy about it.

War Machine to Pen Pal Fiancee Our Eternal Love ... 'I Feel in the Marrow of My Bones'
War Machine's got a way with words ... more than enough to make his pen pal-turned-fiancee swoon.
TMZ's obtained a letter the former UFC star wrote to Ashley Farrington ... the woman he proposed to by reading her a poem back in February. As we first reported ... War got down on one knee and asked her to marry him despite having no ring. There's one other thing ... he's serving a life sentence for a brutal attack on his ex, Christy Mack.
War starts his poem by expressing the pain he feels inside. He presses on ... asking Farrington, "Were you once in me? What did God do? Did he cut me open and make out of me, a you?"
As we've reported ... War was found guilty of sexual assault, coercion, battery by strangulation, kidnapping and several other charges. He'll be eligible for parole when he's 71.

It's the big day for Pusha T and his bride, and it turns out ... Pharrell's got a major role, too!
The rapper -- real name Terrence Levarr Thornton -- married his longtime girlfriend, Virginia Joy Williams, Saturday at The Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach, VA in front of some other big time celebs ... like his Best Man, Pharrell.
The couple's wedding program -- obtained by TMZ -- features cool art of all the people in Pusha's wedding party ... which was actually pretty small. Oh, and his brother was the officiant.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are a couple more of the high-profile guests we know about so far, and of course ... looked stylish as ever.
You'll recall, Ye produced Pusha's hit album "Daytona" which was released in May.
The ceremony's now over, but we imagine the reception -- considering those in attendance -- is still going strong.
Congrats to the bride and groom!

Matt Vasgersian Rips Bachelorette Parties ... On Thursday Night Baseball
"Sunday Night Baseball" announcer Matt Vasgersian is under fire for mocking a bachelorette party at Wrigley Field on Thursday -- while on the air -- saying he hates seeing them at MLB ballparks.
"Is there anything more obnoxious than the bachelorette party at the ballpark?" Matt said.
"You're sitting behind like the bridal party -- 'Like, oh my god! We're getting married! Ehhhhhh."
Matt's cohost Jessica Mendoza fired back -- telling him he's wrong and that she would probably have her bachelorette party at a baseball field if she could.
Matt joked that it's probably better than having the party in Vegas.
After the game, people went nuts on Twitter -- some people called him sexist. One person took it a little too far.
"Man, I hope Matt Vasgersian gets beat the f*ck up by a group of tipsy bridesmaids. What a gigantic tool."
