Spike Lee's documentary on Colin Kaepernick was scrapped, but the decision had NOTHING to do with pressure from the NFL, ESPN's longtime business partner, sources tell TMZ Sports.

The news initially broke over the weekend when the award-winning filmmaker was asked about the project while walking a red carpet, saying, "It's not coming out. That's all I can tell you."

Soon after, Lee and the network released a joint statement, citing "certain creative differences" as the reason for cutting bait.

A Big Brother housemate just served up the sourest move yet -- and trust us, you wouldn’t risk her anywhere near your welcome mat after seeing this!

Catch this clip that was caught on the live feed from "Big Brother" S27 -- housemate Mickey cracks open a fresh bottle of lemonade, chugs straight from the rim ... then pops it right back in the communal fridge like nothing happened.

Total nightmare -- the communal fridge, everyone’s drinks, and not a soul around to catch her in the act ... meaning the house had no clue Mickey’s germs were already swimming in their lemonade!

Gavin Newsom just flexed his trolling skills big time ... posting an A.I. pic of himself getting blessed by the ultimate Trump celeb squad -- and Republicans are foaming at the mouth with fury!

On Sunday morning, California’s governor threw X into chaos with an A.I. fever dream ... Kid Rock, Tucker Carlson, and the late Hulk Hogan -- sprouting angel wings and a halo -- blessing him under the caption "so nice."

The image mimics other fan art of Trump -- which the prez has sometimes shared himself -- featuring various deceased celebs, and even Jesus, with their hands on the president's shoulders. Of course, Gavin's shot didn't land well with conservatives, with one outraged user slamming the post as "Very disrespectful and blasphemy!"

Offset brought vibes and stuff to New York City last night to boost the awareness of his upcoming "Kiari" album for the ultimate test amongst the Big Apple's club crowd!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained video of Offset and his merry band of amigos inside NYC's The Boiler Room ... the rap star hyped up the crowd behind the DJ booth as he ran through some of his new tracks.

The album drops Friday, and judging by the crowd's reaction, he'll have "bodies" moving on the dance floor ... or maybe the bedroom.

Jana Duggar grew up surrounded by babies ... and now, she's finally having one of her own.

The eldest daughter of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar announced Monday she and her husband, Stephen Wissmann, are expecting their first child.

The couple shared photos of themselves on social media kissing, gazing into each other's eyes, and resting their hands on Jana's stomach.

Greg Olsen caused quite the stir after dropping his nickname for Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane on live TV ... 'cause as it turns out, the word he used also has an entirely different meaning.

The moment went down when the Buffalo exec joined Olsen and Joe Davis to talk some ball during the Bills vs. Chicago Bears preseason matchup. With Beane's team down 31-0, the guys tried to lighten the mood ... and that's when the former tight end called him the word and said he was "having a tough one" on Sunday.

"Putting that smile on his face, just bad timing," he added.

Wendy Williams stepped out following a report of her alleged dementia and aphasia diagnosis -- and if you were hoping for a comment, forget it ... her lips were sealed!

The former talk show host was spotted leaving Nobu 57 in NYC over the weekend -- declining questions about the alleged test results but looking happy, healthy ... and, of course, fashion-forward.

Wendy was pure vibes in a sparkling glam outfit, cruising out of Nobu on her mobility scooter and handing cash to a guy asking for food -- clearly unfazed by recent reports of the diagnosis.

Univ. of Nebraska at Omaha basketball player Deng Mayar, who was swimming with a friend, died Saturday in a tragic drowning accident. He was only 22 years old.

Police received a 911 call at 5:45 PM on Saturday stating two individuals were in distress at Blackridge Reservoir in Herriman, Utah -- about 25 miles southwest of Salt Lake City.

Law enforcement said Mayar's friend, Sa Mafutaga, saw him struggling after reaching the shore, so he reentered the water in an attempt to save Deng, who went under about 35 yards away.

Bad Bunny's weekend concert in Puerto Rico drew a bunch of A-listers -- among them Jon Hamm and Becky G -- who danced their buns off during the show!

Jon and Becky got into a dance-off of sorts ... with Hamm hamming it up in a bucket hat and Hawaiian-style getup, while Becky sported a red bra with matching thong.

The "Mad Men" actor was striking poses with his posse as Becky -- ever the singer -- mouthed the words to one of Bunny's songs and sashayed her hips.

Ben Stiller is bringing "Blue Steel" back ... surprising a packed crowd of "Zoolander" fans as his infamous character.

It all went down Saturday night in Los Angeles, during a special screening of the 2001 cult classic at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

Ben -- or should we say Derek -- turned heads by greeting the audience before the movie started ... delivering a hilarious bit as he thanked the crowd and mispronounced the show's organizer, Cinespia.

A female James Bond? Please. Helen Mirren dropped the hammer on that idea -- 'cause she's just licensed that idea to fail!

The iconic Brit told Saga Magazine that even as a hardcore feminist, she’s dead set -- 007 can’t be a woman, because "James Bond has to be James Bond" ... otherwise, it’s a whole different movie. "You can’t have a woman. It just doesn't work," Mirren said.

Pierce Brosnan, Mirren’s "Thursday Murder Club" costar and former 007, agreed -- wishing the next Bond well and saying now he’s just part of the audience, he’s all like, "Show us what you’re going to do!"

Victor Robles -- a Seattle Mariners outfielder -- got thrown out of a minor league game after hurling a bat at a pitcher ... and the video is wild.

Robles is at the plate, when Las Vegas Aviators pitcher Joey Estes fires a high and inside pitch, almost hitting him.

He immediately loses it ... grabbing his bat up off the ground and launching it at Estes, as his helmet flies off his head. The umpire immediately ejects him from the game.

Brooks Nader is no stranger to wardrobe malfunctions ... and, she got her fans to go starry-eyed with a pair of digital stars -- cleverly placed over her exposed boobs!

The model shared some footage from a recent boat trip to her Instagram Stories this weekend in which she's lying back and enjoying the warm glow of the sun.

It seems she leaned a little too far back though ... 'cause her nipples popped out of her low-cut top.

Jose Reyes says the criticism of Juan Soto during his first year with the Mets is unwarranted -- explaining to TMZ Sports the guy can't hit a home run every at-bat!

We got the ex-New York shortstop's thoughts on the Mets and their $765 million man, and he said that while fans expect a lot outta Soto, he's still human at the end of the day.

"He got like what 28 homers, he's hitting .250 something, you know people expect him to do a little bit better," he said. "But for his first year, I think he do good."

Before this blue-eyed kiddo with food on her face was showcasing her effortless beauty all across the globe, she was just rockin' her bandana, hittin' the beaches of Malibu with her siblings and playing volleyball ...

No doubt she's one of the world's most famous models ... You've seen her grace every top magazine cover, but you probably first caught her on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

She's no stranger to the Met Gala, and when she's not runnin' her fashion line, she's a doting mother to her daughter.

Need one more clue? Talk to her bestie Kendall Jenner.
