Corinne Olympios Hangin' with BF ... No Prob with this Pool Encounter

Published | Updated

Corinne Olympios spent Xmas day enjoying the Miami Beach sun with her boyfriend.

The former "Bachelor" and "Bachelor in Paradise" contestant was hanging with Jon Yunger. She's been seeing him since May.

This pool encounter turned out a lot better than a previous outing last year, when Corinne accused DeMario Jackson of sexually assaulting her on the set of "Bachelor in Paradise." She claimed she was super drunk and did not give consent to the sexual contact. The allegation brought filming of "BIP" to a halt.

An investigation -- which included video of the encounter -- concluded Corrine was a willing participant and there was no sexual assault. Filming resumed, but Corrine and DeMario were no longer on the show.

Corinne and DeMario since made their peace.

Demi Lovato Celebrates Xmas With Family

Published | Updated

Demi Lovato was in the holiday spirit on Xmas day, celebrating with friends and family.

Demi looked relaxed and content as she snuggled with her dog. Demi had a special ornament made with the face of her dog, Buddy, who was killed in 2015 by a coyote.

She scored a few cool gifts for Xmas, including some Hermes mugs.

Lovato is back in the game after spending time in rehab, following a near-fatal overdose back in July. She posted this recently ... "Someday I'll tell the world what exactly happened, why it happened and what my life is like today."

Sofia Vergara Nick Lives in Louisiana, Eh? Show Me Proof!!!

Published | Updated

Sofia Vergara doubts her ex truly lives in Louisiana -- where they're at war over 2 of their frozen embryos -- and now wants a court to force him to prove it.

The "Modern Family" star just filed a new motion in her never-ending legal fight with Nick Loeb, asking a judge to make him fork over documentation to confirm he's a real Pelican State resident, after allegedly refusing to cooperate with her lawyers' requests.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Sofia says Nick's claim that he's settled down in Plaquemines Parish, LA -- a pro-life state that recognizes embryos as human beings -- doesn't pass the smell test, because he hasn't ponied up convincing evidence to support it ... like grocery store receipts, or bank info from the area to show he's got a life there.

Sofia doesn't say it outright, but it's strongly implied she thinks he's full of it, and wants a judge to compel him to hand over paperwork to her legal team.

FWIW ... Nick's lawyers claim he rented a place in PP, LA and is registered to vote, but wouldn't tell us how often he stays at the property, if at all. He also set up a trust fund for the embryos, and has named them Emma and Isabella.

As we reported ... Sofia believes Nick is only suing for control of the embryos as revenge for her dumping him, and that he's out to ruin her marriage to Joe Manganiello.

'Glee' Actor Jesse Luken Busted for DUI After Car Crash

Published | Updated

"Glee" actor Jesse Luken allegedly put his car through hell before getting busted for DUI.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Glendale cops got a call about a car crash. When they arrived on scene, they found Luken's Toyota up on the curb with the airbag deployed. There were no other cars involved. The right front tire was mangled.

We're told Luken -- who played the dirty blonde jock Bobby 'Boom Boom' Surette on the hit show and has tons of other TV credits to his name -- was in the driver's seat and reeked of booze. He took a field sobriety test ... which cops say he bombed.

Luken was arrested for DUI. He was booked and later released.

"Glee" cast members have had their share of problems. Mark Salling committed suicide while awaiting sentencing in his child porn case. Cory Monteith died of a drug overdose. Naya Rivera was busted for domestic violence.

We've reached out to Luken ... so far, no word back.

We got our hands on the terms of Santana's supervised release and he'll have to submit to a drug test within 15 days of tasting freedom ... according to the docs. He'll also have at least 2 more drug tests to complete ... the timing of those will be determined by his probation officer.

We broke the story ... the Dipset MC was sentenced to 27 months behind bars in his airport drug case. In addition to the testing, Juelz will have to enter a drug treatment program once he gets out.

LET'S GET EVERYONE INVOLVED

Deontay Wilder may have created a big-time movie role for himself -- because Michael B. Jordan tells us he LIKES the boxer's idea of playing Clubber Lang's son in "Creed 3."

Remember, Wilder -- the heavyweight champion of the world -- recently told TMZ Sports he's gunning for a Hollywood career ... and suggested playing the offspring of Mr. T's famous character in "Rocky III."

PASSIONATE ACTOR

Hey, Michael B. is already playing Apollo Creed's son ... and "Creed II" was all about Ivan Drago's son ... so why not let Clubber's kid get in on the action???

"It's a good idea! It's a cool idea," Jordan told us in L.A. ... while praising Deontay Wilder.

Michael B. told us the 'Creed 3' storyline is still up in the air -- so it seems like Wilder has a real shot. Plus, Michael pointed out how Sylvester Stallone and his crew have always loved using real boxers in the 'Rocky' movies.

The one big issue ... Michael pointed out Deontay (at 6'7") is way bigger than Clubber Lang ... since Mr. T is only 5'10".

But, don't worry ... our photog came up with a solution right on the street.

'L&HH' Star K. Michelle I Forgive Meek ... But I'm Not Cool with Nicki

Published | Updated

K. Michelle says she's moving past her beef with Meek Mill and wants him to make the most of his newfound freedom ... but she's not singing the same sweet tune when it comes to Nicki Minaj.

The singer and 'Love & Hip Hop' star sat down with Raquel Harper for a recent episode of "Raq Rants" on BET, and Michelle says she forgives Meek for replacing her with Nicki on their hit song, "Buy A Heart," a decision she considered total betrayal.

Remember, K. Michelle says the song was intended for her ... before it landed on Nicki's record, featuring Meek -- back when they were still banging. KM's always blamed Nicki for shady music biz deals.

Michelle wishes Meek well and encourages him to keep making a positive impact in the community, warning him to stay outta trouble so he doesn't end up back in jail.

As for Nicki ... Michelle says they'll never be friends, because Nicki tried to snatch her Dreamchasers chain.

"Raq Rants" returns Jan. 8 at 11 PM on BET. On the West Coast, if you have Dish or DirecTV, it's on at 8 PM.

IT'S BUSINESS

Kelly Oubre Jr. is laying down the gauntlet to Russell Westbrook, LeBron James, James Harden and all the other clotheshorses of the NBA ... saying it is he, NOT THEM, who is the best dressed.

Oubre was just featured on GQ.com for his fashion sense ... with the article praising him as being "on fire" this season and perhaps being king of the NBA closet.

We got him out in rainy D.C., and after asking how he felt about being traded from the Wizards to the Suns (it's just business to him), we had to ask straight-up who the best dressed in the league is.

"Kelly Oubre."

He's no doubt the hot hooper right now ... but the competition is FIERCE ... just last week, James Harden put it down in a Versace snakeskin short suit that had Twitter buzzing.

Just know Kelly, now that you've put it out there ... everyone is coming for YOU!

Kansas City Royals Prospect Surprises Parents for Xmas I'm Paying Off Your Entire Debt!!!

Published | Updated

Grab your tissues ... this tearjerker's brought to you by Kansas City Royals prospect Brady Singer who surprised his parents with a VERY expensive gift that'll earn him an award for Son of the Year.

Singer posted this video on Christmas Day ... which begins with Singer's mom opening a red envelope. She starts reading Singer's heartfelt letter ... and if it doesn't give you all the feels, nothing else will. Singer's mom reads out loud: "I just wanna say thank you for everything you've done to help me reach my dreams ... Both of you constantly took off of work and spent every dime you made just to put a smile on my face."

Then ... her jaw drops. SINGER WIPED OUT THEIR ENTIRE DEBT!!!

Singer was selected by the Kansas City Royals with the 18th overall pick earlier this summer. He's a right-handed pitcher with huge potential ... which explains why the Royals paid him $4.25 million to sign with them instead of returning to Florida.

Another sign the Royals wanted Singer badly? They paid him well above the slot value of an 18th overall pick. Yeah, he's that good. And, he's a byproduct of his parents' hard work and sacrifices ... which is why Singer wanted to SHOCK them with an incredible gesture.

You've done good, Singer. Now sit back and relax, mom and dad.

Florida Police Dog Dies in Line of Duty ... After Saving Cops' Lives

Published | Updated

Terrible news out of Florida after a police dog was shot and killed by a suspect ... and the K9 is being credited for saving the lives of officers.

The sad incident went down on Xmas Eve in Wellington, Florida ... where Palm Beach County Sheriffs confronted several individuals cops say were wanted on attempted first-degree murder and armed robbery warrants.

According to local reports ... one of the suspects ran and that's when Cigo -- a 3-year-old canine -- gave chase. But the suspect shot Cigo before a deputy returned fire ... hitting the suspect and severely injuring him. Cigo, however, would later be pronounced dead at an animal hospital.

Shortly after Cigo's death, several tributes were posted in honor of the fallen officer. The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office tweeted, "He gave his life to save others. He's a good boy and he will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace #K9Cigo."

The Sheriff's Office also posted this heartbreaking video of Cigo's handler devastated from the loss.

Terrence Howard Pops the Question ... to Ex-Wife Mira Pak

Published | Updated

Terrence Howard wants another go-around at marriage life with his ex-wife, Mira Pak ... so he proposed to her over the weekend and she said yes!!!

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ ... the "Empire" star popped the question Sunday night at Crustacean Beverly Hills in front of friends and family. They were all dressed for the occasion ... Terrence dapper as usual and Mira in an elegant gown.

Mira's main accessory was a doozy ... a beautiful 7-carat VVS diamond and rose gold engagement ring commissioned by celeb jeweler Ben Baller. We're told the ring is worth about a million bucks.

After the proposal, Terrence gave an emotional toast in front of Mira and her friends ... saying, "It took me 45 years to find you but now that I have you in my 50th year, I will spend the rest of eternity at your side."

Terrence and Mira go way back -- they were married in 2013 but she filed for divorce in 2015 while she was pregnant with the couple's first kid, Qirin. They rekindled earlier this year and sparks flew again like never before.

This isn't the first time Terrence has married an ex-wife. You'll recall he married Lori McCommas in 1989. They divorced in 2003 but they got married again in 2005 ... only to divorce 2 years later. Terrence was also briefly married to Michelle Ghent from 2010 to 2013.

Second time's a charm, right? Congrats!!!

KRISTMAS AT THE KARDASHIANS

The Kardashians broke with tradition Monday ... their big Xmas Eve bash was not held at Kris' krib ... but it definitely did not disappoint.

The party went down at the Hidden Hills home of Kim and Kanye, and gotta say ... it was pretty spectacular. The main party area was kinda dream-like ... with fluffy clouds scattered about.

Kim and Kanye had a bunch of snow hauled in, so the kids could sled down a slope.

The guest list was impressive -- J Lo, Alex Rodriguez, Sia, Paris Hilton, Dave Chappelle, Kimora Lee Simmons and Tyler, the Creator.

And, get this ... the singer -- John Legend, who performed a bunch of songs off his Xmas album, "A Legendary Christmas."

Check out North planted on Kanye's shoulders as he dances to his buddy, John.

The Kardashians Xmas card this year is predominantly girls. It's pretty fitting that the matriarch of the predominantly female family was given a baller gift ... for Christmas, Kris got a custom-made Goyard suitcase, which runs upwards of $15k.

Just another fashionable reminder that they're rich as f***.

LeBron James Apologizes for 'Jewish Money' IG Post 21 Savage Follows Suit

Published | Updated

12/25 -- 21 Savage has also apologized ... saying, "the Jewish people I know are very wise with [their] money so that's why I said we been gettin Jewish money. I never thought anyone would take offense. I'm sorry if I offended everybody. Never my intention. I love all people."

LeBron James busted out a big "Sleecha" to Jewish people on Sunday -- after posting a photo on Instagram with the caption, "Getting that Jewish money."

Long story short, LeBron says he thought it was a "compliment" to Jews.

James was actually quoting a lyric from the 21 Savage rap song "ASMR" -- but there was a backlash online from people who felt someone as famous and powerful as LeBron shouldn't be pushing old Anti-Semitic stereotypes.

"Apologies, for sure, if I offended anyone," James told ESPN ... "That's not why I chose to share that lyric. I always [post lyrics]. That's what I do. I ride in my car, I listen to great music, and that was the byproduct of it."

"So, I actually thought it was a compliment, and obviously it wasn't through the lens of a lot of people. My apologies. It definitely was not the intent, obviously, to hurt anybody."

Despite LeBron's intent, there have been hundreds of books and articles written over the years about why the "Jews and Money" stereotype is a dangerous one.

Quite simply, it's been used a rallying cry to fuel anti-Semitism for hundreds of years.

As far as the NBA is involved, ESPN reports he will not be fined for the posting the lyrics.

Donald Trump Crushes Child's Dream ... You Still Believe in Santa???

Published | Updated

Donald Trump spread a little Christmas pain when he challenged a 7-year-old child who apparently dares to still believe in Santa Claus.

Trump and Melania fielded some NORAD calls on Xmas Eve, when the President asked the child if he still believes in Santa. It seems the kid said he did, and Trump responded, "At 7 it's marginal, right?"

Trump bitched the other day that he was sitting in the White House alone after the government shut down over the budget crisis. He had planned to spend the holiday at Mar-a-Lago.

This is the first time Trump has appeared in public since the shutdown began 3 days ago.
