Ariana Grande was spotted out with her ex Ricky Alvarez in Texas before a concert in Austin ... sending fans into a frenzy and sparking romance rumors online ... but it's not what it looks like.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... Ari has friends in Austin for her birthday -- she turned 33 today -- and Ricky is one of the friends.

They were snapped at a restaurant Thursday, but our sources insist there is nothing romantic between Ariana and Ricky this time around.

'Real Housewives of Miami' star Dr. Nicole Martin and Anthony Lopez quietly exchanged vows ... TMZ has learned they've actually been husband and wife for the last four months.

We obtained the couple's marriage license from Miami-Dade County, which shows Nicole and her longtime love got hitched March 17 in Coral Gables, Florida.

The newlyweds tried to keep the milestone private, with neither Nicole nor Anthony publicly announcing they'd officially tied the knot.

Taylor Swift sounds like she said "yes" to more than one dress ... she's expected to have several wardrobe changes during her upcoming wedding celebration

Taylor will switch up her look multiple times during her and Travis Kelce's wedding festivities next weekend ... according to Page Six.

She's said to be wearing multiple designer looks ... with custom dresses by Monse designers Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia, who were currently the co-creative directors of Oscar de la Renta.

The pop superstar actually wore Monse this week when she hopped on stage during Travis' Tight End University event in Nashville. We told you all about the exciting surprise performance ... and Monse designed the black strapless asymmetrical dress she rocked.

JWoww's making it crystal clear ... if you're upset you didn't score an invite to her surprise wedding, you're only proving why you didn't make the cut.

The "Jersey Shore" star is firing back after we broke the story Angelina Pivarnick and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro were left off the guest list for her wedding to Zack Carpinello.

JWoww says her social media has been flooded with comments over the guest list ... and she's calling out what she describes as fake friends and even family members for leaking details about her private day.

Benson Boone and Alix Earle have taken their rumored chemistry center stage ... sharing a passionate kiss in his newly released music video after weeks of dating speculation.

Benson's "The Time of My Life" music video, which dropped Thursday, features the singer and Alix as the stars of a theatrical love story. The pair go from backstage banter to a fantasy romance ... rowing together in a boat, sword fighting in a tavern, battling a dragon, and even getting married before sealing it all with a kiss in the final scene.

The release comes after TMZ first reported Alix was starring in the video and spent the week filming alongside Benson. Our sources told us their chemistry on set was undeniable, with Alix constantly laughing around Benson and the vibe between them feeling flirty.

Dorit Kemsley isn't letting Boy George's public criticism get under her skin ... brushing off his Father's Day outrage by suggesting he's simply being dramatic.

We got "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star out Wednesday and asked her about Boy George blasting what many assumed was a Father's Day dig aimed at her estranged husband, PK Kemsley.

Dorit pushed back on that assumption, questioning who said the post was even about PK before brushing off George's reaction, saying he's got "the flair for the dramatic."

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce might be getting married at Madison Square Garden after all ... though it may still be a more intimate affair than the 1,000-person event that's also going down.

TMZ has confirmed the pair is having a gathering of around 100 people on July 2 ... the day before the main wedding celebration is set to go down. The New York Times was the first to report this news.

It's unclear what the pair plan to do on July 2 ... but, given it's a smaller group before a wedding celebration, it seems highly likely this could be the actual wedding itself -- or perhaps a welcome bash for close friends and family.

LaVar Ball has revealed that he and his wife of 30 years, Tina Ball, have taken their talents to Splitsville.

Check out the clip ... the father of NBA stars Lonzo, LaMelo, and former NBA G-Leaguer LiAngelo, was on N3on's podcast and revealed for the first time that he and Tina are no longer together.

It seems like she made the decision, and LaVar -- while he certainly seems hurt by it -- is rolling with the punches.

Tia Mowry is officially off the market -- and while she's more than happy to gush about her new man, don't expect wedding bells just yet!

Check out our chat with Tia in NYC, shortly after she hard-launched her boyfriend, Javone Williams. We asked whether another trip down the aisle could be in the cards, and she definitely responded ... pretty quickly, too.

Tia said a lot without saying a lot -- read into that what you will -- but one thing's crystal clear ... Tia is absolutely smitten, telling us everything's going amazingly with Javone.

Jenni 'JWoww' Farley pulled a fast one on her loved ones ... springing a surprise wedding on them!

She invited 50 people -- who thought they were going to a screening of her upcoming movie, "Nanny Cam" -- to the Madison Modern Social in Old Bridge, New Jersey ... to see her and wrestler Zack Carpinello tie the knot.

JWoww told People they spent months keeping their nuptials a secret ... going so far as to make movie-themed invites and set up a red carpet.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are keepin' quiet when it comes to their wedding plans ... but New York City's permit office might be doing the talking for them.

The couple is planning a massive July 3 wedding event at Madison Square Garden ... and now it looks like our reporting is being backed up with paperwork ... sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ a permit was filed with NYC to close streets around MSG from July 2 through midday July 4 -- for a July 3 event.

Event planners have requested space for tents, canopies, and trucks around the arena ... while city officials are moving forward under the assumption a major Swift-related event is headed to MSG.

Brooks Nader and Taron Egerton haven't broken up ... but that's because Brooks says they were never officially dating.

We got the model and actress Wednesday in Venice Beach in between scenes for the "Baywatch" reboot she's starring in ... and our photog asked her how things were going with the "Rocketman" star.

While Brooks and Taron were spotted going out for a couple dinners in Santa Monica a couple months ago ... it sounds like their spark didn't ignite like a rocket engine.

Brooks says she's single and ready to mingle with guys on fun dates, like she did with Taron ... though she makes it clear she's not dating him or anyone else, at least for now.

Wyndham Clark just won the U.S. Open ... but instead of talking birdies and bogeys, he's airing out a relationship saga involving Baker Mayfield ... and it sounds like his chick picked the football over golf.

Check out the clip ... Wyndham tells the story with a smile, making it clear there's no bad blood these days ... but the internet still had a field day with the unexpected confession.

Kandi Burruss and her ex-husband, Todd Tucker, are getting along well enough to take family vacations together ... but that doesn't stop them from having the occasional petty argument.

Kandi and Todd -- who were married from 2014 until their split was finalized earlier this year -- took their kids to a fancy resort for a much-needed vacation ... and KB shared a video of her ex in a beach chair, reading a book.

Todd's boning up on "Daily Prayers For Men" ... which Kandi says is ridiculous -- because in all their years together, she never saw him with a book even remotely like the one he's reading.

Drake might want to tread lightly around Sophie Brussaux ... his baby mama just married a Muay Thai fighter!

Sophie -- the mother of Drake's only son, Adonis -- married Efe Caliskan on Sunday in a ceremony in North York, Toronto.

Her new hubby is a professional fighter who recently made his MMA debut ... and he's no chump because he won that fight in a unanimous decision.

Heather Locklear's still got it ... looking beautiful and flashing a sunny smile while running errands with her boyfriend Lorenzo Lamas.

The two stars were spotted getting things done in Tinseltown on Tuesday ... with Heather decked out in a low-cut top and matching pants as she went to the bank and stopped by a nail place.

Heather's clearly still taking care of her bod -- even stretching while chatting with the front desk worker at the nail spot ... believe it or not she is 64, though you certainly can't tell from looking at her.
