Kemsley told Extra there are two sides to every story ... and while she says she can't talk to the press about the specifics of her case while it's still pending, she admits she likes fashionable clothes and she spends "a lot" of money on fashion -- because it's her money, and she can do what she wants with it.

Bruce Springsteen dropped by the penultimate episode of "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" on Wednesday to give the host a proper sendoff ... and used the spotlight to rip Donald Trump and CBS parent company, Paramount Skydance.
