Miss Colombia has extended her 15 ... we've learned she's just signed a deal to become Vin Diesel's love interest in "xXx: The Return of Xander Cage."

Sources connected with the production tell us Ariadna Gutierrez will play Vin's love interest, and her part is not insignificant. She's in 6 scenes and has 3 pages of dialogue.

Our sources say Ariadna's off to the Dominican Republic Tuesday to begin shooting. It will be her first movie role.

Vin's snagged some other people who have recently grabbed headlines ... UFC superstar Conor McGregor will also appear in the flick.

Abe Vigoda's family is demanding an apology from the Oscars, saying leaving him out of the "In Memoriam" segment was a final injustice to his memory and career.

Carol Vigoda tells TMZ ... "Last night the Oscars dismayed many and cheated Abe Vigoda by not paying tribute to the immense professional energies and talents that he brought to the industry."

She added, "Let's not forget the personal and family sacrifices that were willing made to achieve that essential devotion. The Oscars fell short in many ways and as my father Abe Vigoda said the Oscars have earned, 'one demerit.'"

Carol's also not going to buy the excuse that Abe -- who starred in "The Godfather," "Look Who's Talking" and countless other films -- was omitted because he died too recently (Jan. 26, 2016) because David Bowie was included ... as was Alan Rickman.

Carol says there's a "hole in my heart that needs to be filled."

Dr. Luke is not letting Kesha get away with embracing Lady Gaga for Sunday night's Oscars performance ... he's lashed out at her saying "Til It Happens to You" has nothing to do with her.

Luke is responding to Kesha's tweet, "thank you @ladygaga and VP @JoeBiden for bringing attention to sexual assault at the oscars. it hit very close to my heart for obvious reasons."

Luke's attorney, Christine Lepera, tells TMZ, "Ms. Sebert [Kesha], who in sworn videotaped testimony from 2011 stated that she had never been sexually abused or drugged by Dr. Luke is neither a victim nor the appropriate person to be held up as an example for this important issue."

Kesha -- who's vacationing in Turks and Caicos -- claims Luke threatened her into denying allegations of rape during the depo.

Leo DiCaprio is a seasoned actor, but he's a neophyte when it comes to Oscar etchings ... so he proved when he took his trophy upstairs to get it engraved.

You gotta watch the video -- there's wonderment in Leo's eyes as the woman burns his Best Actor title onto the prize.

Feels like an odd word to describe it, but this is kinda ... adorable.

The Vanity Fair Oscar Party was the place to be after the ceremony.

It went down in Bev Hills at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts. Lots of stars stopped by, including Chris Rock, Louis C.K., Dave Chappelle, Sarah Silverman, Vince Vaughn, Jeremy Renner, Adrien Brody, and Alejandro Iñárritu.

When you sit through 3 hours of that ... you deserve to party.

Sam Smith suggesting he might be the first openly gay man to win an Oscar ... pissed off screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who's now calling out Smith.

Not long after Smith won Best Original Song for the "Spectre" theme ... Black, who is openly gay, tweeted a reminder that HE won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay in 2009 for "Milk."

He also claims Smith is infatuated with his fiance, olympic diver Tom Daley.

The "first" argument might seem kinda petty -- especially since Smith didn't state he was first as fact -- but Black tells TMZ, "I think knowing our collective LGBTQ history is important. That's all. We stand on the shoulders of countless brave men and women. We should honor that."

As for the shot about Daley ... Black wouldn't elaborate. We've reached out to Smith, but no word back.

Fun fact: Elton John also won an Oscar, long before Black, in 1994.

Smith has now apologized.

Leo DiCaprio celebrated his Oscar win by puffing on a vape pen and sipping a cocktail.

Leo was at Ago restaurant in WeHo to celebrate his win, and he was the center of attention.

When he left, someone gave him a bottle of booze. And the weirdest thing ... someone ran out after Leo's car with his Oscar, almost as if someone forgot to take it.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton went for the glitz at the Vanity Fair Party ... sort of.

Gwen killed in a red sheer dress ... Blake wore jeans.

On the other hand ... guess who was more comfortable?

Charlie Sheen wanted everyone to know he's HIV free -- at least that's what his wardrobe seemed to be screaming at Elton John's AIDS Foundation party.

Charlie's t-shirt at Elton's annual Oscar event read, "Stay positively negative." Sheen has maintained there's no trace of HIV in his blood ... ever since announcing last November he'd contracted the virus.

The event raised more than $6 million for AIDS research, and if some thought Sheen's clothing selection was in questionable taste -- Elton and his husband David Furnish didn't seem to mind.

Kesha's not fully unplugged during her Caribbean vacay -- she tuned in for the Oscars and used the buzz around Lady Gaga to put a spotlight on her sexual assault allegations against Dr. Luke.

Last night she thanked Gaga and Vice Prez Joe Biden for "bringing attention to sexual assault at the Oscars."

As we've reported, Kesha jetted to Turks & Caicos over the weekend to escape her legal problems, but she was obviously watching when Biden intro'd Gaga's performance of "Til It Happens to You."

Kesha's review -- "It hit very close to my heart for obvious reasons."

Salma Hayek's beloved dog was shot and killed by a neighbor, TMZ has learned, and cops have closed the case because the dog was trespassing on his property.

As we reported, Salma's 9-year-old dog, Mozart, was found dead last week at her Washington state ranch.

Cops launched an investigation and tell us Salma's neighbor confessed to shooting the dog, but there were extenuating circumstances. The neighbor told police he was sick of her dogs coming onto his property and attacking his dogs, which he says happened every time Salma's caretaker took the pets for a walk.

The neighbor told cops... several of Salma's dogs were in his garage on the day in question ... and he used a pellet gun to scare the animals away. The neighbor said he had no intention of killing any of the animals and cops also believe the pellet gun ordinarily would not be lethal.

Briana Jungwirth says she'll strike a custody deal with Louis Tomlinson, but his new girlfriend is a deal breaker.

TMZ broke the story, Louis and Briana struck a temporary custody deal hours before an emergency court hearing in which the One Direction singer was set to tell a judge she was holding their 1-month-old hostage in order to squeeze more money out of him.

Sources connected to Briana tell us, she's also deeply concerned about Louis' new GF, Danielle Campbell. Briana does NOT want Danielle to interact with her kid, in part because it could confuse the infant and interfere with a critical bonding period.

We're told Louis wants to take little Freddie to his L.A. home and spend time ... with Danielle present. Briana is adamant that should not happen. We're told she only wants Louis to spend time with Freddie at her home.

As we reported, the temporary deal gives Louis modest visitation but no overnights. They're still negotiating child support.

Eddie Redmayne could learn a thing from Tracy Morgan about how to werk it in heels ... and eat a danish.

The Oscars put together a brilliant skit about how this year's nominated films would look if black actors landed roles in them. Tracy deserves a trophy -- or at least a pastry.

Joseline Hernandez struggled before scoring "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" ... appearing on a failed stripper reality show under a different name ... Shenellica.

TMZ scored footage from a 2007 pilot shot at Diamond Cabaret in Miami. The show was produced with the hopes of landing a Showtime deal, to compete with HBO's "Cathouse" series.

We're told Joseline -- a stripper at the club -- struck a deal in which she got $400 to appear on screen. And yes, she demanded cash.

FUN FACT: We're told producers were afraid if the show sold, Joseline and some of the other girls might not pass the psych evaluation.

Stevie J might agree.

Madonna's gotta be thinking, "Rocco wouldn't have broken his arm if he were living with me."

The 15-year-old was hanging out in London with fellow celebuspawn Brooklyn Beckham.

We don't know how Rocco messed up his arm, but we DO know Madonna has been privately griping about Guy Richie's permissive parenting.

Rocco and Guy are due in court soon, unless Guy and Madonna are able to strike a custody settlement.
