A family dog had the scare of a lifetime -- yanked into an alligator’s jaws right from his Florida backyard -- and while he somehow made it out alive, his injuries are nothing short of brutal.

The pics are rough -- the German Shepherd named Zeus suffered a fractured jaw and deep puncture wounds ... he had his jaw realigned and wired shut by a veterinarian, all after he broke free from the gator that busted through the backyard fence in Wesley Chapel, near Tampa, and dragged him to a nearby pond.

Zeus’ owner, Susan Alkhatib, told WFLA it all unfolded in a blur last week -- the whole family rushed outside to watch in horror as the gator thrashed around with Zeus' head locked in its jaws.

Glen Powell's ex-girlfriend, Gigi Paris, is breaking her silence two years post-split -- saying the actor's swirling Sydney Sweeney hookup rumors amid their relationship left her utterly shattered.

On the "Too Much" podcast Tuesday, Gigi let loose about Glen's PR stunt for "Anyone But You," which left her high and dry ... so much so, that with a heavy dose of sarcasm, she hoped Glen and Sydney would actually end up together to make her dramatic April 2023 exit worthwhile -- and even hoped they're still madly in love!

Gigi delved into the Glen and Sydney drama, revealing she had two choices -- play along with the PR buzz about their rumored hookup, or stand up for herself and say she wasn't cool with it, ultimately deciding to walk away.

The plane crash that took the life of dirt track racing legend Scott Bloomquist has been ruled a suicide.

According to a National Transportation Safety Board final report, obtained by TMZ Sports ... Bloomquist appeared to intentionally fly his aircraft into a barn on his family property in Moorseburg, Tenn. "as an act of suicide."

Officials wrote in the report the cause of death was blunt force injuries.

Massive rough patch for Macklemore -- masked bandits hit his Seattle home, swiping thousands in jewelry and bear-spraying the nanny while kids were inside the house.

Check out this dramatic doorbell footage -- the nanny, shaken and desperate, banged on a neighbor’s door, seeking refuge ... after two men wearing black outfits, vests and face masks broke into the home very early Saturday morning through a patio door.

The nanny reportedly told police the intruders sprayed her in the face with bear mace and demanded to know where the jewels were kept ... she said one of the men yelled at her, "Where are the jewels, b****?"

"Bebe??" More Like "Bae-be!!!"

Bebe Rexha recently vacay'd in Croatia ... and based on the bootylicious pics, she got her daily dose of Vitamin Sea, with her bikini buns on blast. The sexy singer hit the back of the boat for a quick photo sesh before headin' deep!

The 2025 BET Awards were absolutely lit -- especially 'cause performers Snoop Dogg, Mariah Carey, Teyana Taylor and more absolutely crushed it onstage.

Dive into our gallery for the juiciest highlights from L.A.'s Peacock Theater Monday night... Ashanti, Jennifer Hudson, T.I., and Bow Wow didn't just bring the house down -- they demolished it!

The judge has finally weighed in on whether to grant Diddy a mistrial ... and he's giving the disgraced music mogul a big thumbs down.

Hell no, Judge Arun Subramanian told Diddy as the 20th day of his federal racketeering and sex trafficking trial kicked off Tuesday.

Remember, this whole issue came up last week when Bryana Bongolan -- Cassie's friend -- took the stand and testified Diddy dangled her over the edge of a 17th-floor balcony at Cassie's Los Angeles apartment around September 26, 2016.

Mariah Carey is 'Obsessed' with herself and proud ... celebrating her "iconicness" as she took home her first-ever BET Award Monday night.

She noted ... "It took me a while, but I finally realized life is far too short to live for anyone else's approval, which is something I always did. So I decided to own who I am. My extra-ness, my fabulousness, my and yes, my success and my iconicness."

Nikki Bella was back in a WWE ring after making her surprise return at the "Royal Rumble" in January ... and one coworker gave her anything but a warm welcome -- with Liv Morgan savagely referencing her highly publicized divorce from Artem Chigvintsev.

The 41-year-old swung by "Monday Night Raw" in Phoenix to talk about the brand's upcoming all-women Pay-Per-View, "Evolution," next month. While hyping the event, she listed some of the talented women currently on the WWE roster ... without mentioning Morgan.

Morgan then popped out ... and made it clear she wasn't gonna take the omission lightly -- while chalking it all up to Bella being jealous of everything going on in her life.

Splish, splash, can you guess which Hollywood hottie put her curves on blast in this eye-popping photo?

Here are a few clues: The 29-year-old is known for her acting work in "Players," "Smoky Knights," and "Powerless." Oh, and her older sister starred on Disney's "High School Musical."

And, we couldn't help but to flash you with a different angle ... you're welcome!

Triple H couldn't script a better fight than the one that broke out during Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final on Monday ... with Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers players duking it out right on the ice!!

The chaos took place midway through the final period ... when Oilers center Trent Frederic cross-checked Sam Bennett of the Panthers. All hell broke loose at that point ... with four other one-on-one fights unfolding from there.

The officials tried their damnedest to break up the scraps ... with some even finding themselves right in the middle of the action.

8:00 AM PT -- In an earlier version ... TMZ inaccurately reported that Justin Baldoni's lawyers filed a motion to dismiss Blake Lively's claims in her lawsuit.

Blake Lively may have thought her legal drama with Justin Baldoni was finally behind her after her stunning court victory ... but JB's lawyer says the case is just getting started.

As you know ... Blake scored a big win Monday when a judge tossed out the claims Baldoni made against Lively, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and the New York Times in a $400 million lawsuit.

Baldoni accused them of defamation over an article about Justin's ugly feud with Blake behind the scenes of their 2024 film, "It Ends With Us." He insisted it was all part of a smear campaign against him.

Get ready to fangirl ... 'cause two more BTS members have wrapped up their mandatory military service, meaning the long-awaited boyband reunion is just around the corner!

BTS members RM and V are officially out of the South Korean military ... and their discharge was a total spectacle with swarms of fans, AIA the BTS Army, swarming Chuncheon City to welcome the duo back.

V thanked the fans for sticking around and teased them to hang tight a bit longer for a "really cool" comeback performance.

Tyler Perry minced no words at the BET Awards Monday night ... taking the chance to rip into President Donald Trump's America for erasing Black history right before the country's eyes.

Here's what went down -- TP hit the stage and gave an impassioned speech following a sweet story about him and his son leaving footprints in the sand together.

In the speech, he likened the footprints to those his fellow Black Americans have left on the country through its history, while delivering a sobering warning ... "They are removing our books from libraries, they are removing our stories and our history, they are removing our names from government buildings. It’s as if someone wants to erase our footprints."

Kate Upton's been blessing us on and off the big screen for years, but today's chick flick ain't about the "The Other Woman," it's about THIS woman, and this woman only ... It's her lucky 33rd birthday!

The Sports Illustrated veteran first made a splash with her voluptuous looks displayed on the magazine's swimsuit issue in 2011.

Upton became a (hot) mom back in 2018, but that hasn't stopped her from performing her showstoppin' looks -- like in this pool snap.

Check out our gallery and send off this birthday babe with your best wishes 😘!

The top federal prosecutor in Southern California has issued a stern warning to an alleged rock-throwing Los Angeles protester — we're coming for you!

On Monday night, the U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, Bill Essayli, released a wanted poster with a photo of Elpidio Reyna and a video purportedly showing him hurling stones at federal agents in vehicles driving by him.

In a statement, Essayli said Reyna can run, but he can't hide after tossing rocks at the agents departing from a command center in Paramount — a city in L.A. County where demonstrators protesting the Trump administration's immigration raids turned violent on Saturday.
