Most stars love their fans, and others really want to know who the real ones are ... can guess who this fan-favorite actor is?

We ran into this guy back in 2016 and told him about our love for a certain mystery-solving dog he formerly shared the screen with ... and he wanted to know how hardcore we were about our knowledge of the franchise!

Yvonne Lime, who acted in movies alongside Elvis Presley and Katharine Hepburn, is dead.

Yvonne died Friday, according to Childhelp, a national nonprofit organization she co-founded that's dedicated to helping abused, neglected, and at-risk children.

The cause of death is unclear but Yvonee's nonprofit says she "passed away peacefully."

Yvonne was born and raised in Glendale and she graduated from the Pasadena Playhouse before getting into Hollywood ... appearing in a bunch of movies in TV shows in the 1950s and 1960s.

She appeared opposite Elvis in the 1957 flick "Loving You" ... and they went on some dates during production ... with Elvis even bringing her to Graceland for Easter weekend in 1957.

Yvonne's first movie role was in 1956 when she landed a part in "The Rainmaker," which starred Hepburn and Burt Lancaster.

In '57 before the Elvis movie, Yvonne played Michael Landon's girlfriend in "I Was a Teenage Werewolf."

Yvonne married TV producer Don Fedderson in 1969 ... and she later served as president and CEO of his company, Don Fedderson Productions, managing the rights to huge TV shows like "The Betty White Show," "Family Affair," and "My Three Sons."

She was 90.

Absolute tragedy in the comedy world ... beloved comedian and actor Floyd Vivino -- better known as Uncle Floyd -- has died at the age of 74.

The news was announced by his brother Jerry on Facebook late Thursday night ... he revealed Floyd passed away peacefully at 6:05 PM on January 22 after a two-and-a-half-year battle with ongoing health issues.

Jerry wrote, "Rest in peace big brother. You will be missed, but always remembered by friends, family and your loving fans," adding the family will hold a private funeral, with a public celebration of life to be announced later.

Wunmi Mosaku must really be feeling all the love from Hollywood, given how she landed her first Oscar nomination Thursday morning ... and it turns out she felt the exact same way on the set of "Sinners."

The actress viewed the movie's team as her family while they worked on the flick, telling Deadline she became "the closest I've ever been to a cast and crew in my whole career" as she collaborated with Michael B. Jordan and director Ryan Coogler.

Mosaku played a hoodoo practitioner in the flick, a high-concept premise that portrayed a pair of twin brothers opening up a juke joint in the South during the Jim Crow era, and ending up battling a group of vampires.

Mosaku said the movie was made with "so much love," and she's "so grateful that it’s not been taken in vain."

She added she "never thought about award season when taking a role," which is fine and all ... though she might change her mind after this one, as she's up for Best Supporting Actress.

"Sinners" collected an unprecedented 16 Oscar nominations ... two more than the previous record held in a three-way tie between "La La Land," "Titanic," and "All About Eve."

Colossal news for Ryan Coogler’s "Sinners" ... the horror flick just made Oscar history with a massive 16 nominations!

"Sinners" officially blows past the longtime three-way record of 14 noms held by "All About Eve," "Titanic," and "La La Land" ... and you can bet the cast and crew were losing it after Thursday morning’s announcement.

The haul includes Best Picture, Michael B. Jordan for Leading Actor, Wunmi Mosaku and Delroy Lindo for Supporting Actress and Actor ... and even a nod in the brand-new Best Casting category.

Danielle Brooks is about to be up at the crack of dawn announcing those Oscar nominations ... and she’s already got some very strong opinions on who’s about to clean up!

We caught up with the actress at LAX Wednesday, and she made it clear her pick to dominate this year is "Sinners" ... saying she thinks the film could have its own "Moonlight" moment with a surprise Best Picture win.

You gotta catch the full clip ... Danielle goes hard for "Sinners," but she also name-checks another major contender that’s high on her list too.

"High School Musical" was a slam dunk hit for Disney 20 years ago, but not for Bart Johnson -- who played Coach Bolton -- because he tells TMZ the movie f***** up his career at first!

It may be hard to believe, but Johnson tells us his acting career took a turn for the worse despite his skyrocketing fame as Zac Efron's on-screen dad and East High's head basketball coach in 'HSM.'

Check out our clip ... Bart tells TMZ he was "put out to pasture" for being a dad in a Disney movie, and it took a whole decade to get his career back on track.

Scott Foley is pumped he got to work with Neve Campbell and David Arquette again on the upcoming 'Scream 7' movie ... and we got him on video signing a deadly object.

We caught up with the 'Scream' star Wednesday in New York City as he was being hounded for photos and autographs ... and our photog asked him about Neve's return to the slasher franchise.

Scott reprises his 'Scream 3' character, Roman Bridger, in the new flick, and Neve is back as Sidney Prescott after skipping 'Scream 6' ... and Scott tells us it was great to reconnect with Neve and David, who is also back as Dewey Riley, after missing 'Scream 6' as well.

Lizzo looked like a dolled-up Barbie at the Los Angeles premiere of Paris Hilton's "Infinite Icon: A Visual Memoir" documentary Tuesday night ... showing off her dramatic weight loss in a skin-tight dress!

Check out the pics -- the singer is radiating confidence in a curve-hugging light pink mini dress paired with bedazzled heels. She elevated the pretty 'n pink look with a pair of sparkling hoop earrings that brightened up the pink carpet thanks to her half-up, half-down hairstyle.

Lizzo looked like she had a grand ol' time at the premiere ... watching the doc seated next to Paris herself with Demi Lovato on the other side. Other A-listers supporting the night's star included Heidi Klum, Carmen Electra, and more -- just check out our gall!

Andy Serkis is dropping hints about the cast for a new movie in 'The Lord of the Rings' franchise ... and it sounds like he went to bat to get the band back together.

We got the guy who plays Gollum in the 'LOTR' trilogy at LAX on Tuesday and asked about the new movie he's directing and starring in, "The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt For Gollum."

Andy's reprising his role as Gollum and Ian McKellen is returning as Gandalf, with Elijah Wood expected back as Frodo Baggins ... and while Andy didn't want to give too much away as far as cast, he did go on the record saying he "loved" the OG cast, which also featured Viggo Mortensen and Orlando Bloom.

Chris Pratt’s no stranger to staying ripped for his Marvel role as Star-Lord, but even when he’s not in superhero mode, he says he’s always got one thing on his mind -- not letting himself go.

Speaking on 'GMA' Tuesday, Chris told the hosts he’s always just "six weeks away from the right body" ... so he doesn’t have to suffer to get back to that lean, superhero-ready shape for the role he’s expected to reprise in "Avengers: Secret Wars."

As we all know, starting from scratch would be brutal ... something Chris has documented plenty of times on social media, showing off his workouts and diet as he went from full-on dad bod days to Marvel superhero status.

Robert Redford wanted to "change the world" with the Sundance Film Festival, according to his daughter Amy.

She said Robert was aware of "so many stories out there that needed to be told that weren't being told," which he wanted to promote through his work in the festival.

Filmmaker Roger Allers -- perhaps best known for co-directing Walt Disney Feature Animation's "The Lion King" -- has died.

Film producer Dave Bossert confirmed the death on Facebook, writing, "I am deeply saddened by the news that our friend Roger Allers has passed on to his next journey. We were just trading emails this past week while he was traveling in Egypt, which makes this loss feel all the more unreal."

Bossert worked with Allers on many films through the '80s and '90s and described Allers as "one of the kindest people you could hope to know and work alongside."

Some stars out there really know how to hold the attention of a group ... can you guess who this crowd-pleasing comedian is?

We ran into this actor back in 2016 when he was taking selfies with fans in L.A., and even though it was more than a couple years since he'd done stand-up ... he still knew how to work a room -- well, a crowd anyway!
