Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce's new steakhouse is almost here ... and the three-time Super Bowl champs are making sure to give every item on the menu their personal stamp of approval ahead of its grand opening!!

The duo's restaurant, named 1587 Prime, is located on the ground floor of the Loews Kansas City Hotel -- just eight miles northwest of Arrowhead Stadium.

The official ribbon-cutting is set for September 17 (which just so happens to be Mahomes' birthday) ... but before they welcome everyone in to chow down, they had to taste the menu themselves.

Xavier Worthy appeared shocked when Taylor Swift name-dropped him during Travis Kelce's "New Heights" podcast last week ... admitting on-camera the moment was "crazy."

The Chiefs' social media team played the clip for their wideout on Monday and filmed his reaction ... and it's not hard to see he was thrilled with the shoutout.

"I ain't going to lie," he said, "she's the biggest pop star in this generation. So, it's crazy to have somebody running around the house screaming, 'We drafted you.'"

A lucky buyer is now livin' the California dream after scooping up former NBA star Derek Fisher and Gloria Govan's beautiful L.A.-area mansion -- and they scored it for under $3 million!

As we previously reported, the couple -- who married in 2021 -- listed their Chatsworth estate back in January ... a Mediterranean-style home with a bunch of luxury perks.

The 5,691-square-foot mansion, built just four years ago, features five bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, with the primary suite boasting a Four Seasons bathroom.

Anthony Edwards is making sure kids in Houston have shoe game going into the 2025-26 school year ... by donating a bunch of his signature adidas sneakers!!

The CEO and founder, Molo, shared the donation on Instagram ... saying Edwards had over 150 pairs of his Adidas AE 1 sneakers delivered to their charity.

"But they talk behind my back," Mya wrote in the video on Monday.

4:58 PM PT -- Linda Hogan reached out to TMZ to clarify her earlier comments ... she now tells us her ex-husband Hulk Hogan wouldn't have been a supporter of California Gov. Gavin Newsom ... 'cause the fam never went along with liberal policies. As far as she's concerned ... no one likes Gavin! So, the meme was lame -- and only worked to confuse some fans.

Gov. Gavin Newsom is trying to beat Trump at his own game as far as ridiculous A.I. memes go ... but his latest post featuring Hulk Hogan was just too painfully stupid, the WWE legend's ex-wife tells TMZ.

Here's the deal ... on Sunday morning, Newsom threw X into chaos with an A.I.-generated image featuring Kid Rock, Tucker Carlson, and Hulk -- sprouting angel wings and a halo -- blessing him under the caption "so nice." Obviously, the meme was meant to rile up Trump and his supporters, since they've shared similar memes in the past in sincere support of the president.

Linda Hogan tells TMZ … For anyone confused about the troll game Newsom is playing with his Trump-esque posts, Hulk couldn’t stand Newsom, and was as far from liberal as you can get.

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland's rendition of "Let Me Love You" at a team meeting was so good, it's getting top praise from the original artist himself -- Mario!!

TMZ Sports spoke with the popular R&B musician about the 10th pick in the 2025 draft's recent performance as part of his rookie initiation ... and he couldn't say enough good things about how the former Michigan star made it his own.

If you haven't checked it out yet ... Loveland had social media on fire for singing (and moving) along to the 2004 smash hit -- with most folks applauding his effort.

The social media sensation-turned-WWE Superstar took some time to pen a message to his 27 million Instagram followers on Monday ... saying "God delivered in every way."

"To make unforgettable and everlasting memories with the people you love most is truly the greatest blessing humans can experience."

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.

Khamzat Chimaev is back in the UAE after securing the UFC middleweight belt less than 48 hours ago ... and the folks at home are already treating him like the champ by rushing to greet him at the airport!!

Footage of the 31-year-old arriving in the country started making the rounds on social media Monday ... showing a ton of people waiting to get a glimpse of the big winner as soon as he touched down.

Rocking the belt on one shoulder with a flag draped over him, Chimaev took time to pose for photos and sign some autographs for those in attendance.

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!"

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.

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.

Undrafted free agent Isaiah Bond officially has an NFL home with the Cleveland Browns after being accused of sexual assault earlier this year -- inking a fully-guaranteed deal worth millions just days after his case was no-billed.

21-year-old Bond -- a projected early-round pick in the 2025 draft prior to the allegations -- put pen to paper on a three-year, $3.018 million contract on Monday, according to multiple reports.

It shouldn't come as a huge surprise -- on Thursday, Bond thanked the Orange and Brown in his statement addressing the legal update ... and said he would prove them right in believing his side of the story.

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.

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."
