Blac Chyna's getting ready to move into a new crib ... and it cost her a pretty penny.

TMZ's learned BC just threw down $3 million on a pad in the San Fernando Valley. The house is a knockout -- 6 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms sitting on nearly half an acre. It gets better ... the 7,054 sq. foot home also features a guest house with 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.

Guessing Chyna's big on wine ... the house has a custom-built glass wine cellar. Here's to more wasted appeals!!!

Donald Trump says he's not responsible for the rash of bomb attacks -- a hard one to swallow for sure -- and Megyn Kelly may be out of a job, but she's not hurting for cash. So, we gotta ask ...

Jenna Dewan is officially divorcing Channing Tatum nearly seven months after the couple split ... TMZ has confirmed.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... Jenna filed for divorce from Channing on Friday in Los Angeles, citing irreconcilable differences.

In the docs, filed by powerhouse attorney Samantha Spector, Jenna is asking for joint legal and physical custody of their 5-year-old daughter, Everly. Jenna is also requesting spousal support.

We've obtained Channing's response ... and he's also asking for joint custody. Channing is seeking to block the court's ability to give Jenna spousal support.

Jermaine Dupri believes it's his patriotic duty to lift Stacey Abrams into the governor's mansion in Georgia, but she's gonna need young voters to get there ... which is why he set up a surprise appearance for her.

The ATL hip-hop mogul tells TMZ ... he knows history's at stake with Stacey's candidacy -- she's looking to become the first black female governor in the country. The fact it could happen in his home state is what got Jermaine's political juices flowing, and why he brought her on stage at his So So Def concert last weekend.

Jermaine says getting Stacey in front of 11,000 fans at Atlanta's State Farm Arena was key, because she needs help "to educate our children and get them into good colleges."

As we reported ... tons of celebrities are pouring enormous amounts of cash into her campaign to make it happen.

Paul Pierce is glad Villanova is refusing to visit Trump's White House to celebrate their NCAA basketball title ... saying the tradition is dumb and overrated.

Nova's coach Jay Wright, announced Thursday the team would not visit 1600 Pennsylvania this year -- as NCAA winning teams have traditionally done for years.

In fact, Villanova visited Obama's White House after winning the title 2016 -- but Wright explained, "Two years ago it was the experience of a lifetime for all of us. It’s just a different time."

Fast forward to Thursday night outside Mastro's Steakhouse in Bev Hills -- where we asked Pierce (who visited George W. Bush's White House with the Celtics in '08) if Nova was making a mistake.

"I think that's overrated," Pierce explained ... "Why you gotta visit the White House? You got your trophy, you won your championship."

Paul tells us it's a digital time -- so a simple congratulatory tweet should more than do the job.

Then, he started questioning why the tradition even started in the first place -- strongly implying the tradition is just dumb and unnecessary.

"I don't know why we go to the White House," Pierce said ... "Why did people even start going there?"

BTW ... when Pierce went to the White House a decade ago -- he called it "truly an honor" and even brought gifts for No. 43.

Don't let these two almost identical images of Heidi Klum freak you out ... Clown around a bit and see if you can figure out the differences between these two spooky snaps!

Disappointed in this year's World Series games?? Here's something that'll cheer you up ... the players' smokin' hot WAGS!!!

Boston and L.A. haven't played the most competitive W.S. so far ... but they've hit plenty of home runs off the diamond -- just look at their wives and girlfriends!!!

Justin Turner's wife, Kourtney Turner, steals the show ... but Kike Hernandez's fiance, Mariana Vicente, and Alex Wood's wife, Suzanna Villarreal, came to play too.

In Boston's lineup, Catherine Rodríguez is as hot as an Eduardo Rodríguez fastball ... and Matt Barnes' fiance, Chelsea Zara, rocks the hell out of a bikini.

8:50 PM PT -- NYPD's been able to speak to witnesses and sort out what happened. The retired cop was working security for the 10k Projects exec who was meeting with Tekashi, and our law enforcement sources say everything went to hell when the exec turned away Tekashi's entourage.

We're told Tekashi and his family were taken back to their vehicle, but his entourage went back to the restaurant and confronted the exec ... who's security quickly stepped up. We're told someone in Tekashi's crew grabbed a chair and smashed it over the exec's bodyguard, who then took out his gun and fired.

As we told you ... 6ix9ine's guy was shot in the abdomen.

5:10 PM PT -- We've learned the bodyguard is now out of surgery and in stable condition.

4:45 PM PT -- The shooter didn't get away scot-free. Law enforcement sources tell us a retired police officer was nearby when the gunfire broke out and shot at the suspect, who cops believe he was hit.

We're told NYPD is searching for the perp.

Gunfire erupted during Tekashi69's celebration after his court hearing, and one of his bodyguards was hit ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us, the group was at a restaurant in midtown NYC, celebrating the fact that 6ix9ine dodged a prison sentence and got off with 4 years probation in his child sex case.

Here's what we're told -- Tekashi was meeting a 10k Projects Records exec at the party. A bodyguard for the exec turned away 6ix9ine's entourage, saying the only person who could come into the restaurant was Tekashi himself. Tekashi's security said hell no, and an argument erupted.

During the argument, a third party walked up and fired 4 shots, hitting Tekashi's bodyguard in the stomach. The bodyguard was taken to the hospital.

We're told Tekashi was not involved in the scuffle. Nevertheless, it's interesting just hours before the shooting, the judge warned the rapper to stay out of trouble or risk going to prison.

The Shade Room was first to break the story.

Steve Aoki never knew what it was like to be No. 1 ... until now!!!

We got the EDM superstar at LAX Friday afternoon and our photog wanted to rave about his new song, "Waste It On Me," featuring K-pop group BTS. Steve's excitement was palpable after we brought up the track 'cause he could NOT wait to tell us the big news -- the track's a global success ... reaching No. 1 on iTune's global and U.S. charts. Sorry, Lady Gaga.

It's pretty incredible ... Steve and BTS dropped the track Thursday and in less than 4 hours it had more than a million streams on Spotify. What's more ... this is BTS' first all-English track. They've collaborated twice before ... but this one is something special.

Check it out ... Aoki also explains why BTS' crossover into the states is hugely significant.

John F. Kennedy fans can hit the jackpot with tons of personal items belonging to the famous Prez ... assuming they have a small fortune to spare.

The guys over at RR Auction have a bunch of JFK's stuff including his Harvard cardigan sweater and assassination-related items ... like an original window sash from the Texas School Book Depository and a Lee Harvey Oswald handwritten letter.

JFK's sweater is expected to fetch upwards of $30k. The window sash could go for $25k. It has its original glass and dark green paint just as it did on November 22, 1963 ... the day Oswald opened fire from the book depository, killing President Kennedy.

Oswald's one-page, handwritten letter was addressed to his mother ... but intended for his wife. It's one of the items for more frugal bidders ... expected to go for a paltry $6,500.

Tekashi69 just got a huge break -- he's getting off with probation in his child sex case.

Tekashi was tight-lipped walking into the NYC courthouse Friday to get his sentence. The judge gave him 4 years probation ... which is exactly what the rapper's team had requested. The courtroom, packed with his entourage, erupted in cheers.

Afterward, he addressed the judge directly and embraced his government name, saying he's Daniel Hernandez, not Tekashi69. He added, "I have millions of youth that look at me as a role model and the last place I want to be is incarcerated, they don’t deserve it. Thank you.”

The judge gave him credit for one year, so he effectively only has 3 years of probation left. He'll also have to perform 1,000 hours of community service, and refrain from associating with any gang members and avoid all gang activity. That part might be difficult -- he's repped the Bloods in several music videos.

Any new arrests will be deemed a violation, and he could be resentenced ... which could mean prison.

As we reported ... 6ix9ine pled guilty to one count of Use of a Child in a Sexual Performance back in October 2015, long before he was famous.

In legal docs, obtained by TMZ, prosecutors say Tekashi was at a party in Harlem where a 13-year-old girl was taped engaging in sexual acts with another man while Tekashi, 18 at the time, stood "behind the child making a thrusting motion with his pelvis and smacking on her buttocks." Prosecutors say the child is nude in the video.

The rapper's sentence was deferred for 2 years and, if he complied with certain conditions -- like getting mental health treatment and staying out of trouble -- the judge would only give him probation. The problem for Tekashi was he got arrested in Texas and Brooklyn.

As we reported ... Tekashi had filed a letter with the judge claiming his arrests for assaulting an officer (Brooklyn) and attacking a fan in a mall (Houston) don't constitute a violation of his plea deal.

Tekashi's lawyer, Lance Lazzaro, argued both arrests happened long after the Oct. 2017 deadline on his plea deal -- so 6ix9ine should only get 4 years probation and a youthful offenders program. Prosecutors had recommended he get 1 to 3 years prison time.

Score one for 6ix9ine Daniel.

His rep tells TMZ, "Daniel understands what he must now do moving forward and we will be with him every step of the way. We also want to thank the judge for being very fair and impartial."

Abby Wambach says FIFA's decision to double the prize money for the Women's World Cup is good -- but it's still FAR less from what the men are getting ... AND THAT'S NOT OKAY!!!

We spotted the Team USA soccer legend at LAX hours after the FIFA Council announced the move to increase the prize pool from $15 million to $30 million next year.

The women's champion will now get $4 million from that pool -- while the men's champs (France) just got $38 MILLION from a $400 million prize pool.

"We still got a lot of work to do," Wambach tells TMZ Sports ... "It's like a Band-Aid. They need to pay the women equally."

"The mission of FIFA isn't just to grow the men's game. It's to grow the game of football worldwide."

Ron White won't be able to crack jokes this weekend -- not onstage, anyway -- we've learned he's postponing a number of performances due to a neck infection.

Sources close to Ron tell TMZ ... the comedian was forced to cancel his Thursday show in Bakersfield after swelling in his neck made it difficult for him to breath and move.

We're told Ron checked into a hospital and doctors believed he had a calcium deposit in his neck due to dehydration and being overworked. Doctors initially feared Ron had internal bleeding, but a CT scan came back negative. He's now en route to Los Angeles to see his personal doc.

Parker McKenna, who played Damon Wayans' daughter on "My Wife and Kids," claims her ex-boyfriend beat the crap out of her, and he's now sitting in a Houston jail ... TMZ has learned.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... Parker told prosecutors her ex, YouTube star Chris Sails, got pissed after he saw a DM from another man on her phone, and started beating her so badly, she thought she was going to die.

The alleged incident went down last month in the couple's apartment. Parker claims Chris repeatedly punched and slapped her in the face, and choked her while slamming her head on the ground.

Parker called cops and responding officers noticed she had a black eye and cuts on her neck. We're told she initially claimed a woman who was visiting had attacked her. Two weeks later she recanted, and told cops Sails punched her.

A top official with the doomed Fyre Festival knew the event was a total fraud and tried to cover it up with some social media smoke and mirrors ... according to concertgoers suing the festival honcho.

Grant Margolin -- the Chief Marketing Officer for Fyre -- is being sued by ticket buyers who claim he directed employees to delete Facebook and Instagram comments blasting the festival. According to the suit, hashtags like "fake," "fraud" and "scam" were all scrubbed.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, the plaintiffs -- repped by Ben Meiselas -- say this is significant because it allowed Margolin to continue misleading and luring concertgoers to buy tickets.

Margolin is calling BS, and says social media moderation is a common practice because it's the most important way to defend a brand.

As we reported ... Fyre organizers were sued in May 2017 after the festival looked more like a refugee camp than a luxurious oasis.

Billy McFarland, the festival organizer, was sentenced earlier this month to 6 years in federal prison.
