Oprah Winfrey didn't throw a huge party for her 70th birthday, and she didn't ask for a bunch of gifts either ... instead, she seemed content with a healthy run along the beach.

The legendary talk show host celebrated her birthday milestone Monday, posting a video on social media showing her jogging on a California beach with a friend and one of her dogs. Looks like she had a pal (or perhaps a trainer) who was jogging alongside her.

The media mogul captioned her IG post ... "Celebrating 70 with a run on the beach. #healthisthebestgift. Thank you for all the birthday love." The hashtag is probably good news for Oprah's friends and loved ones ... it's gotta be hard to find a gift for a billionaire!

BTW ... Oprah added Jill Scott's timeless song "Golden" to the post ... and she's certainly looking pretty fit in her golden years. That's the bigger point -- O showing off the fact she works out, which is timely considering her recent confession to using weight-loss drugs.

Fact is ... she's caught a little flak of late for what people perceive as "taking the easy way out" -- this after she denounced drugs like Ozempic, before doing an apparent about-face.

Here, however, she seems to be telegraphing something ... namely, she gets active too.

The beach run obviously dovetails with her latest health transformation ... as we reported, last month Oprah revealed she dropped 40 pounds in 2023, thanks in part to doctors prescribing her some medication.

With this, though ... O seems to be suggesting exercise was part of the drop in poundage. Hard to say if this will appease people like Jillian Michaels -- she seems very anti-Ozempic.

Travis Scott isn't down with concert venues ordering staff to wipe up mosh pit sweat, apparently -- and when he noticed it happening in Miami, he offered a janitor the ultimate PTO!!!

Footage from Trav's 'Utopia' tour stop Sunday night showcased Cactus Jack's generous side ... after peeping the man wielding a mop to clean up after all the sweaty ragers.

He immediately halted the show, and questioned the venue's motives for having the guy tarnish his mosh pit's essence.

Travis then ordered the janitor to drop the mop and soak up the rest of the show as a fan -- because he was paying him $5K to do so!!!

As the crowd got charged up by Travis' random act of kindness, he lit them up even more by dropping his Playboi Carti-assisted banger "Fein" on the crowd, causing them to lose it ... and sweat even more.

The Utopia Tour has been uplifting spirits for months -- just ask 50 Cent's son Sire, who seemed to be lovin' the "I Know" rapper's live set more than his own dad's moves on stage!!!

Florence Pugh got caught in a vulnerable state while shooting "Oppenheimer" -- namely, when she and Cillian Murphy were naked ... during which cameras weren't rolling.

The actress shared this cringeworthy story at a recent screening of the blockbuster, where there was a Q&A ... and where FP revealed there were some technical difficulties at one point in the production, and it came at the worst time ... during a sex scene.

If you've seen the movie ... you know there's at least 3 sex scenes where Florence and Cillian are nude -- so it's unclear which one exactly this happened for, but it sounds awkward.

Apparently, while they were filming this intimate scene, one of the main cameras broke ... and the whole crew had to hit pause while they worked on it to fix the problem. That left Florence and Cillian standing by (naked) as they waited for the issue to be resolved.

Luckily, FP had a good attitude about it all -- her whole point here is that 'Oppenheimer' was very much like an old-school Hollywood production ... and she's talking about how in awe she was by everyone and how they handled their craft. Even during this stop-down, she says she found stuff to appreciate ... and learned a thing or two about the equipment, etc.

Her point about the set being like a classic Hollywood movie isn't lost on us either -- considering Christopher Nolan's rep for wanting his cast/crew to be in the moment (and, allegedly, not to sit down either) ... this kinda makes sense that Florence and Cillian stuck around during this.

You'd figure the stars of a major film like this could head back to their trailers during this in-between time ... not so for a CN flick though, apparently! On his set, you see it through.

Anyway, sticking with it for these inconveniences clearly paid off for Florence and Co. -- 'Oppenheimer' is an Oscar darling this year, and is primed to win a bunch of awards.

Shannen Doherty's finally catching a break amid her grueling stage 4 cancer battle ... revealing there's been a miracle breakthrough after she took a gamble.

On Monday's installment of her "Let's Be Clear" podcast, the actress says her radiation oncologist, Dr. Amin Mirhadi, put her on a new cancer infusion ... but when they didn't see a difference after 4 treatments, her medical team wanted her to try something else -- though she asked to stick it out.

Sure enough, Shannen's body became receptive to the treatment after the sixth and seventh treatments ... adding she's pleased things are finally working in her favor health-wise after rolling the dice.

She explains the drug breaks down the blood-brain barrier ... which can prevent chemotherapy drugs from reaching the brain tumor cells to destroy them. In Shannen's case, anti-cancer drugs are now able to penetrate her tumor cells via the weakened barrier.

Shannen's continuing with the treatment, saying she believes God's seen her struggle and is intervening.

Shannen was first diagnosed with breast cancer back in 2015, and after 2 years of chemo, she was in remission. Though devastatingly, the cancer returned in 2020 and spread to her brain last year.

Kristin Juszczyk has gone official ... just days after her custom NFL fits went viral -- with some help from Taylor Swift -- the league granted her a licensing deal to use their logos on her designs!

The deal was struck this week, according to Sportico ... allowing Juszczyk -- who is married to 49ers star fullback Kyle Juszczyk -- will be able to legally use the logos of NFL teams for men's and women's clothing.

The financial terms of the agreement aren't known.

Kristin's brand is one of the hottest things going right now ... all since she received the best free marketing ever from Swift, who rocked her puffer coat design (an ode to Travis' #87) to the frigid Chiefs vs. Dolphins game in Kansas City on January 13.

Brittany Mahomes also wore a custom Juszczyk jacket with Patrick Mahomes' jersey number ... as did Olympic gymnastics legend Simone Biles, who wore a bubble vest representing her husband Jonathan Owens.

Olivia Culpo -- who's engaged to Christian McCaffrey -- also modeled a 49ers bustier by Juszczyk for the Divisional Round game this month.

And, it's not just the WAGs rockin' Juszczyk's custom designs ... "Twilight" actor Taylor Lautner wore a dope Aidan Hutchinson jacket at a Detroit Lions playoff game a few weeks ago.

While Juszczyk's amazing work has just recently grabbed the public's attention, she's been building the business for years, and now the hard work has paid off.

"She’s been grinding for years now and working so hard," Kyle said.

"I'm so happy to see her get her stuff out there, everybody sees it and recognizes it was hers."

Sydney Sweeney is about to upgrade someone's garage in a major way ... because a custom 2024 Ford Mustang GT she designed herself is part of a new giveaway.

The actress is once again teaming up with Ford, and this time they're holding a contest for one lucky fan to win her super sweet Mustang.

Sydney's custom designs are pretty awesome ... inspired by Sydney's Brittany Blue 1966 Mustang, this car features a Robin's Egg Blue exterior with a crushed glass clear coat and 20-inch chrome rims.

Under the hood, Sydney's signature is emblazoned on the engine.

Sydney and Ford's collab logo, a heart bolt emblem, is featured on the dashboard and exterior side panel ... and it's embossed on the leather seats.

SS is big on nighttime cruises ... so she added color-changing LED stars across the headliner. Pretty cool stuff.

The contest begins today and runs through Feb. 7 and Sydney and Ford say they're looking for someone who defies stereotypes with their pursuit of their passions.

Sydney's doing that some herself ... she's really big into cars and the mechanics behind them.

Participants can enter to win by sharing their stories on the Ford Instagram or TikTok channels.

And, get this ... Ford actually made two of these Mustangs ... meaning the contest winner and Sydney will have identical cars!!!

Lindsay Lohan is spreading her wings in the States lately -- she was just recently in NYC for some promo work -- and now, she's in Georgia ... where her little one is tagging along.

The actress popped up in Alpharetta, GA Monday -- about 40 minutes outside of Atlanta -- where she and her husband, Bader Shammas, were on a nice little walk with their baby boy, Luai, who was chillin' in his stroller ... with dad taking care of push duties, as LiLo snacked.

If you're wondering what the heck Lindsay and co. are doing in the southern state right now -- you might be happy to hear it's likely work-related ... namely, a new Netflix movie.

She was recently announced to star in yet another Christmas flick opposite Kristin Chenoweth -- this after having been in a different Xmas movie for them a couple years back, 'Falling for Christmas.'

Seems the streamer liked her stuff and signed her up for another one! BTW, we recently got Kristin at LAX ... and she had some kind words for Lindsay -- saying she's a pleasure to work with.

Seeing how films/shows are constantly filming in the state of Georgia -- and with 'Our Little Secret' already in production -- it's a safe bet that's exactly what LiLo's shooting right now. Lucky for her, she's got her family right by her side ... which seems to be her new norm.

It's interesting ... Lindsay normally lives abroad in Dubai, but lately -- she's been here in America for business. Like we said up top ... she was just in the Big Apple a couple weeks ago for the premiere of the new 'Mean Girls' ... in which she had a brief cameo/appearance.

Taylor Swift fans around the world can breathe a sigh of relief ... the mega pop star is searchable again on X!!!

In a statement released Monday, X's rep, Joe Benarroch, broke the news about Taylor after her name was blocked from being searched on the platform last weekend following a flood of sexually explicit AI images of the singer.

Benarroch wrote that X had reinstated all searches for Taylor after temporarily blocking them due to the raunchy images.

The spokesman promised to "continue to be vigilant for attempts to spread this content and will remove it wherever we find it.”

As millions of Taylor fans recall, they woke up Saturday to the harsh reality of not being able to search for the music giant on X.

All they got when they typed in Taylor's name was an error message, essentially saying there was no news about her on the app, formerly known as Twitter.

Ariana Madix just hit the "Great White Way" in a big way ... making her Broadway debut in the revival of the legendary musical, "Chicago."

The "Vanderpump Rules" star strolled out on stage at the Ambassador Theatre in Manhattan Monday night, playing the role of sexy, blond-haired Roxie Hart in the Tony Award-winning play.

By all measures, Ariana's performance was a 10 on a scale of 10, receiving a standing O at the end of the show.

Check out the video ... Ariana took a bow with the rest of the cast at the foot of the stage. She then accepted a bouquet of flowers and addressed the audience, giving props to the "Chicago" orchestra. She left the stage after taking one more bow with "Chicago" actress, Amra Faye-Wright, who played Velma Kelly.

Two of her 'VPR' costars, Lala Kent and Scheana Shay, were right there in the crowd lending their support, along with Ariana's boyfriend Daniel Wai, and her mom, Tanya.

There's a new video game where Batman gets a final sayonara from his worst foes -- and fans of the late Kevin Conroy are absolutely fuming over it ... calling it a terrible send-off.

The game's called 'Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League' -- due out in a few days -- and some of the footage from a particular scene involving the Dark Knight (voiced by Conroy) is already making the rounds online ... which depicts this version of Batman's brutal death.

Indeed, in this universe ... Harley Quinn fires a bullet into Batman at close range, officially killing him off -- and people who grew up watching Conroy's Batman are kinda losing it.

There's a number of reasons why folks are mad -- but the biggest one, it seems, is that some feel this is a disrespectful way to leave Conroy's legacy as the Caped Crusader. It is, in fact, the last time he played Batman before tragically passing in 2022 from cancer.

While this game's developer/distributor (Rocksteady/WB) likely didn't foresee Conroy dying so suddenly -- diehards of his character and the superhero at large are still dragging these companies through the coals for the decision to off Batman like this ... very wham bam.

However, others are actually pushing back against the outrage ... for two good reasons. One ... it's a freaking video game/fictional character -- and all this is pretty damn silly, TBH.

More importantly, though, many are rightly pointing out that Conroy himself signed up for this story when taking the job -- and considering how closely he cherished the role/character of Batman for as long as he did it ... some think the angry mob should respect his decision.

History for Elon Musk and Neuralink ... the billionaire says there's now a human being fitted with the neurotech startup's brain chip for the first time.

Elon made the big announcement Monday on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter, claiming the early results are looking good.

Musk says the patient, part of Neuralink's first human test group, received the implant Sunday and is recovering well.

Elon adds ... "Initial results show promising neuron spike detection."

The brain chip, Elon explains, is called Telepathy ... and he says it "enables control of your phone or computer, and through them almost any device, just by thinking."

Put another way, Elon says ... "Imagine if Stephen Hawking could communicate faster than a speed typist or auctioneer. That is the goal."

Neuralink's first human trial involves people who have lost the use of their limbs.

Elon's company is testing the safety of the implant and the surgical robot that inserts the chip in the brain. Neuralink says it also wants to see how the futuristic tech works in the real world.

The FDA cleared the way for this trial back in May, and this is just one step in a long process toward final FDA approval.

Jonathan Majors is speaking out about his life after the guilty verdict, and before sentencing in the domestic violence case -- and he says he's staying positive and doing okay in the aftermath.

TMZ got the "Creed III" actor out Monday in West Hollywood, where despite the judgment blindsiding him, he told us he's been relying on faith and prayer for some light amid this dark time ... adding, "God is good."

A focus on religion definitely seems to be doing him wonders .. Majors was grinning, happy, and relaxed during our interaction -- though when pressed on matters regarding future work, he drew the line ... telling us that was enough for now.

Work-related matters are clearly a sore subject for JM ... he was booted from a series of projects following his guilty verdict, including all Marvel projects -- which is, generally, a financial pinnacle for any actor, so we can only assume it was a bummer for him when they pulled the rug from under his feet.

Of course, it would be in bad taste for major Hollywood studios to be attached to Majors after his recent legal battles.

Remember ... he was convicted on 2 of 4 counts after being accused of roughing up his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari -- the charges included reckless assault and harassment ... though he was acquitted of aggravated harassment and intentional assault.

Jonathan maintained his innocence earlier this month to ABC News in his first interview since the verdict ... though, he expressed regret over how he handled things with his ex.

It remains to be seen if he'll say that in front of the judge when he's sentenced -- that's scheduled for Feb. 6, and he faces up to a year behind bars.

Former UFC champion Jamahal Hill was offered a plea deal in his domestic violence case, TMZ Sports has learned.

Prosecutors extended the deal to Hill earlier this month, according to court documents. As part of the proposed agreement, Hill would plead guilty to one charge of domestic violence ... in exchange for the dismissal of the aggravated domestic violence charge they had initially hit him with following his arrest in November.

Hill is expected to make a decision on the offer by a court hearing in March.

We reached out to Hill's attorney for comment ... though so far, no word back yet.

We broke the story ... Hill was arrested back on Nov. 27 after his brother, James Hill Jr., told police the MMA fighter roughed him up at his Kent, Michigan home following a series of arguments the two had gotten into over Thanksgiving weekend.

Cops say James told them Jamahal "sucker punched" him with a closed fist -- before hitting him a second time. Police said in court documents James sustained a swollen face during the altercation -- adding that he was also "missing a front tooth that he stated got broke when Jamahal assaulted him."

The doors to "Stranger Things" will remain slightly ajar after its final season, but not for a pesky Demogorgon ... just for normies to get a chance to own a piece of the Byers' home.

Yes, it's true, you can now invest in a piece of Netflix history -- that is, if you're willing to drop a little dough. Allow us to explain, 'cause it's actually pretty neat, especially if you're a big fan.

An investment as small as $100 on the real estate platform, Arrived, will snag you a share in the Fayetteville, GA, home featured in external-facing shots of the Byers' home, where some key scenes were set in the first season ... in particular the alphabet/holiday lights on the wall featuring Winona Ryder.

Shares will be available to anyone while supplies last, and shareowners will earn rental income generated by the property on a quarterly basis.

That's an Eleven out of ten effort by the owners to cash in on the real estate market!!

The vacation rental will be decorated using funds from the shares, and the owners are hoping fans can chip into the renovation process to pay tribute to the original show setup ... with some nostalgic 80s-inspired Easter eggs dotted throughout.

Upon completion, fans will be able to book a stay at the property ... where they can hang out and listen to vinyl records in Jonathan's room, play D&D in the den and explore the 6-acre property on old-school BMX bikes.

We broke the story ... the home sold in 2022 when an investor made a cash offer above the $300k asking price. Now, that investor is seemingly trying to capitalize on what they paid by getting others to chip in for a co-op-type deal.

From the "Upside-Down" to "up-for-sale," ... here's your chance to get in with some Hawkins history.

Strong start to the week at TMZ -- and you can tell by how fiery out TV shows were from from to back ... touching on all things Super Bowl, especially as it pertains to T-Swift.

On 'TMZ Live,' you best believe we were talking Taylor Swift and her next stop in her football journey alongside Travis Kelce -- and yes, that'd be the big game itself in the Super Bowl ... which is exactly where she (and all Swifties) will be two Sundays from now.

Yes, she has a show in Tokyo the night before ... and no, it doesn't matter -- 'cause she'll be front and center. One thing she won't be doing at SB LVIII ... upstaging Usher whatsoever.

'TMZ on TV' was a riot Monday ... much of which had to with Britney Spears apologizing to Justin Timberlake after trashing him in her book -- something nobody really saw coming.

Her "apology" seemed to come out of nowhere this weekend ... but it did shed some light on how she feels about her ex -- and, perhaps, how she made him look in the memoir. The staff had their own ideas on the bigger implications ... and whether this was even needed.

Finally, we arrive at 'TMZ Sports' ... where, yes, we were talking Super Bowl again -- only this time ... focusing on a different famous lady tied to an NFL stud ... Olivia Culpo

She got a little teary-eyed when the 49ers won their game ... peep to find out why!

Former reality TV star Frank Herlihy was in his mid 20's when he was cast to be a part of 'Vanderpump Rules' -- Bravo's hit reality show, first airing in 2013, led by the one and only restaurateur and television personality Lisa Vanderpump.

Frank poured up Big Pinky's with some of television's most dramatic stars including Stassi Schroeder, Jax Taylor, Tom Sandoval, Scheana Shay, Kristen Doute and Katie Maloney.

Herlihy was fired from SUR during the show's first season after -- not only overcharging a customer -- but threatening to pull the customer's underwear over their head if they didn't walk away from him.
