Cardi B was the undisputed queen of SummerSlam 2025 -- hyping up the crowd as host and serving looks while turning the arena into her own personal runway.

Catch this clip -- Cardi was making sure all eyes were on her before the smackdowns even started Saturday... rocking a wild, feathery fit that looked like she was ready to take flight straight outta MetLife Stadium.

It wasn’t just glitz and glam -- there was some BTS action, with Triple H giving Cardi a pre-show pep talk backstage, with the moment ending with a big ol' hug.

'Golden Bachelor' star Mel Owens is shaking off the recent age-shade and diving into the good life -- spotted on the beach, cameras rolling and a whole squad of stunners by his side!

Hit play on the clip -- Mel was living it up at Zuma Beach in Malibu Friday with a whole crew of gorgeous gals, looking like one hell of a group date. Age? Who cares! Mel’s face said it all -- he clearly thought they were all 10s.

TBH, you’d think these ladies were fresh outta their 20s -- all slaying their summer 'fits as they strutted into Malibu West Beach Club. One even snuck in a quick touchy-feely move with Mel on the way in that didn’t go unnoticed.

Johnny Manziel is joining the drama between fellow former quarterback Cam Newton and rapper and podcast host, Gillie Da Kid ... even taking a swipe at Gillie with a threat of physical violence!

This is the sitch -- Gillie and the former Panthers star have been trading barbs over Cam omitting Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts from his lineup of the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL. Gillie is a major Birds fan ... so he was not happy.

You'll see in the social media clip the "Million Dollaz Worth of Game" podcaster held up a Super Bowl trophy and rubbed it in Cam's face that he never earned one -- and the jab didn't sit well with Johnny.

We all know celebs love to party -- and this former NFL tight end showed a crowd of onlookers he was in a different class of debauchery on a wild night out in Hollywood!

Olympic gold medalist Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend, fellow athlete Christian Coleman.

The Team USA Olympic sprinter was taken into custody on Sunday at SeaTac Airport in Washington State after a TSA agent reported a woman assaulting a man while leaving the security checkpoint, an incident report obtained by TMZ says.

The reporting officer says they reviewed security footage showing a verbal altercation escalating into a physical one when Richardson shoved "Coleman hard enough that it [sent] him crashing into a nearby column."

Denzel Perryman, a linebacker for the Los Angeles Chargers, was arrested on Friday in Los Angeles, TMZ has learned.

According to law enforcement sources ... the NFL player was picked up by the South Los Angeles Sheriff's Station officers Friday evening and booked on a felony charge of possessing an assault weapon.

We're told he was en route to the gun range when cops searched his car and found he had 2 AR rifles and 3 handguns in his trunk -- with the rifles being non-compliant, which is illegal in California.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are at it again -- riding high on life, grinning through it all, and living their best royal rebellion.

6-year-old Archie is already a little adventurer in the making. He’s still in the early stages of surfing -- taking after dad, who's also taken up surfing in California.

Any talk about Serena Williams' body transformation is going in one ear and out the other ... 'cause the tennis legend tells TMZ Sports she's feeling like a million bucks!!

Williams, 43, has been sharing photos of her new slimmed-down physique on social media over the past few months ... which sparked plenty of reactions -- both positive and negative.

Williams doesn't seem to care one bit either way ... as she brushed off the critics outside Hotel Fouquet in New York City this week.

If Kevin Durant, James Harden and Russell Westbrook had stayed together in Oklahoma City, there would be a couple more championship banners hanging in the Paycom Center rafters ... at least, that's according to Serge Ibaka.

The former Thunder center -- who played alongside the trio of future Hall of Famers during their stint in OKC -- told TMZ Sports out at LAX this week he's sure they all would have some more championship bling in the jewelry cases if the team had just found a way to keep everyone together.

"Minimum two," he told us.

WWE Superstar Tiffany Stratton is set to take part in her first SummerSlam match Saturday night at MetLife Stadium ... but don't think any nerves are running through the champ -- 'cause she tells TMZ Sports she is "never afraid!!"

We caught up with the WWE Women's Champion out in NYC ahead of her title defense against Jade Cargill ... and it's clear she couldn't be more excited to go out and put on a show.

"I am super excited," she said. "It's my first SummerSlam ever, so I'm making history on top of the two-night SummerSlam."

Hulk Hogan's always going to be remembered as one of the most famous wrestlers of all time ... and that even holds true on his death certificate.

TMZ Sports obtained the certification of death for Hulk ... and as you can see, the document lists his occupation as a professional wrestler in the entertainment industry.

Hulk's death certificate lists a bunch of stuff we already knew ... his date and place of death, his birthday, his birthplace, his race, his education, his marital status, his widow's name, his parents' names ... but it's still surreal to see.

Stephen Nguyen is coming to the defense of Jason Herzog after the well-respected MMA ref opted NOT to stop his fight with Mohammad Yahya ... despite his opps face being destroyed during the UFC on ABC event!

TMZ Sports spoke to the 32-year-old, 10-2 fighter just days after the controversial fight -- which resulted in one of the more grusome injuries we've seen -- and while many may believe Herzog dropped the ball, Nguyen isn't one of them.

"To be honest, when I was in the actual fight, I saw his eye, but I almost didn't think anything of it. Like, obviously this guy's still throwing hard at me. Yeah, his eye was messed up, but his hands said different," Nguyen told us.

"The guy was throwing, he was still throwing everything he had at me."

Ultimately, the fight was stopped after the second round (meaning SG won by TKO) ... but it wasn't Herzog who pulled the plug. Instead, it was the Octagon-side physician.

And, Yahya, 31, wasn't happy with the decision.

"Literally right when I got my hand raised, I talked to [Mohammad], he's telling me that he still wanted to keep fighting. And, you know, I have a lot of respect for that," Nguyen explained.

"We don't even know each other, but now we know each other so well, and obviously it's a warrior's code, you know, and I have nothing but respect for anybody that walks in [the Octagon], but especially for him, he fought his heart out."

So, what's next for Nguyen ... fresh off the impressive win? What's he going to buy with the $50k bonus he received??

Kenneth Sims Jr. is out to prove he belongs among boxing's elite ... and to do that, he plans to dominate Oscar Duarte in the ring Saturday night!

That's what Sims Jr., 31, told TMZ Sports ahead of his August 2 bout against Duarte (29-2) ... a fight going down in his hometown of Chicago.

"I haven't fought in Chicago since I was a teenager," Sims Jr. said. "There's a lot of people that's coming that never seen me box in person. It's gonna be a good weekend. Put on a show for my whole city."

These sexy ladies are feeling feline fierce for Frisky Friday, but can you scratch off the catsuit and sniff out the celeb in question?

From singers to reality TV stars, actresses and athletes ... roll through stylish singers like Beyonce and Katy Perry -- or dare we say, "Kitty" Perry -- who are pawsitively purrrfect onstage, but can you guess their sassy looks on the streets?

And keep an eye out for Kim Kardashian, Serena Williams and more A-listers ... All they're missin' is their whiskers 😜!

Brooke Hogan knows best ... and, right now, what's best for her is getting back into music!

Sources close to Brooke tell TMZ ... after Hulk passed away last week, Brooke reconnected with her ex-boyfriend Yannique Barker -- a record producer and son of the SoBe Entertainment founder Cecile D. Barker. Yannique was the boyfriend Hulk was referring to in the infamous leaked N-word tape.

Brooke was once signed to SoBe ... and, we're told she has now re-signed to the label -- good news since she has nearly an entire album recorded.
