Published | Updated

The usually flawless Jennifer Lopez finally made a questionable wardrobe decision during a recent taping of "American Idol."

The color screams failed bridesmaid dress -- and it's way too loose on her -- but thankfully the curves underneath are still 100% Jenny from the block.

Chris Hemsworth & Elsa Pataky Malibu Muscle House For Sale

Published | Updated

Chris Hemsworth and wife Elsa Pataky's up for grabs Malibu home will give you a pretty good idea of how Thor packed on the muscle.

They've listed their 5-bedroom, 6-bath crib for $6.5 mil ... which isn't ON the water in the 'Bu but does have views of the Pacific and lots of privacy. Chris also converted the 3-car garage into a gym.

Elsa and Chris are only ditching the beautiful home because they moved back to his native Australia with their 3 kids.

They clearly like to keep things Aussie -- since they bought the home from "Crocodile Dundee" actor Paul Hogan in 2013 for $4.8 million.

Johnny Manziel CUT

Published | Updated

The Cleveland Browns have officially cut socialite and occasional football player Johnny Manziel ... announcing the move Friday via the team's Twitter account.

It wasn't unexpected ... most league insiders thought the Browns had grown weary of Manziel's antics -- including a grand jury investigation into an incident with his ex-GF -- and new head coach Hue Jackson had been publicly lukewarm on the idea of keeping Johnny around.

As for Manziel ... he's seemed completely unaffected by the career uncertainty, hitting up hot spots in Miami, Vegas, and L.A. all in the last month and partying with the likes of Scott Disick.

It's been reported up to three teams are still interested in subsidizing Manziel's club hopping ... and he told TMZ Sports he's completely dedicated to football ... so we're guessing this isn't the last we've heard of him.

THE FINE IS WAY TOO HIGH!

Rick Hilton has sympathy for the enemy, as in Marriott ... because he thinks his family's rival hotel got the shaft when it was ordered to fork over $27 million to Erin Andrews.

Rick and Kathy Hilton were at LAX when we asked what they thought about Monday's verdict -- Andrews was awarded $27 mil from the Nashville hotel and $28 mil from Michael David Barrett.

The grandson of Hilton's founder didn't hesitate -- he says the number is way too high. He thinks Marriott will appeal, but also hints there's a way they could've avoided this.

GET THAT AWAY FROM ME!!

Kim Kardashian tried to break her little girl's paralyzing fear of Snapchat ... by putting her on Snapchat -- and the result was kinda precious.

In the ultimate irony, North West has a slight case of social media phobia ... as we all learned from the video Kim posted on Thursday night. She just doesn't dig those scary faces, guys.

Watch ... doesn't look like North is gonna easily snap out of this, but we're guessing Kim and Kanye West won't stop trying to cure her.

Fun fact: Visiobibliophobia is the the fear of social media.

Cesar Millan The Pig's Okay ... Now It Walks the Dog

Published | Updated

Cesar Millan insists the pig that was bitten by an over aggressive dog during a training session ... is totally fine now, and video from his show proves it.

TMZ broke the story ... Animal Control went to Cesar's training center to investigate an incident shown on "Cesar 911." He was trying to train a French bulldog with a penchant for attacking its owner's pot-bellied pigs -- but the dog ended up biting a pig's ear.

Nat Geo, which airs the show, says Cesar created a "safe and controlled environment" to rehabilitate aggressive dogs. It stresses he took precautions before "making initial corrections and removing the leash." And although the dog attacked it says the pig was tended to immediately, healed and showed "no lasting signs of distress."

EVERYTHING'S SWINE

Video shows Cesar putting the dog and the pig back together the next day ... and the pig actually walks its attacker.

It's unclear if the clip is enough to clear Cesar from animal cruelty charges, but Nat Geo seems to be saying ... since the dog was cured, the end justifies the means.

Oscars Girl Scouts Troop The $65,000 Lie ... We Barely Got Crumbs

Published | Updated

The Oscars or the Girl Scouts -- or some mystery benefactor ... is hanging 28 little girls out to dry -- after swearing Chris Rock's bit earned $65k ... we've learned the money is nowhere to be found.

You'll recall Rock and the Oscars got Inglewood, CA's Girl Scouts Troop 5215 to work the crowd of celebs, hawking Thin Mints, Tagalongs and more. Near the end of the show, Chris said they raised $65k.

But Latoya Edwards, whose daughter is in Troop 5215 tells TMZ someone's screwing them over. She claims the National Girl Scout Council informed them the Academy would be donating the $65k to the Greater L.A. Council ... but that hasn't happened, and the Academy isn't returning calls.

Mind you, Troop 5215 isn't getting rich quick. Edwards says due to nonprofit rules her local chapter would only get $1,000 of that money, but her bigger concern is her scouts are getting used in a public relations lie.

Previously Girls Scouts of America and the Academy both bragged about the $65k they'd raised -- but now GSA seems to be wiping its hands clean. A rep would only tell us, "The donation process is determined by local councils."

Translation: We have no idea where the $65k is. Edwards claims the Greater L.A. leaders are also in the dark and as for the Academy? We contacted reps, but no word back yet.

Edwards says her Girl Scouts were honored to participate -- and is happy they were able to unload 400 boxes -- but she wants the world to know, as of now, there is NO fat check pouring into the Inglewood chapter.

And yes ... that's how it crumbles.

Morena Baccarin & Ben McKenzie It's a 'Bat' Girl!

Published | Updated

Morena Baccarin and "Gotham" co-star Ben McKenzie welcomed their first kid together ... daughter Frances Laiz Setta Schenkkan.

Frances was born on March 2. The couple's reps confirmed the baby girl and mom were "happy and healthy."

As for the name ... it appears to be a collaborative effort. Frances is McKenzie's mom's middle name and Setta is Baccarin's mother's maiden name. Schenkkan is Ben's real last name.

Baccarin's pregnancy has been a little complicated -- she's been hashing out a nasty divorce to soon-to-be ex Austin Chick, with whom she already has a 2-year-old son, Julian.

USA Today first reported the birth. This is McKenzie's first kid.

Drake Money War Show Me the Profits! Jas Prince Sues Middle Man

Published | Updated

While Drake's rolling out hit after hit, Jas Prince -- the guy who discovered him -- keeps getting the shaft because one exec isn't keeping up his end of the deal ... according to a lawsuit.

Jas Prince is going after Derrick Lawrence, who co-owns Aspire Music. According to the suit, Prince has a very specific contract regarding his finder's fee for Drake. Here's how it works: Young Money pays Aspire 1/3 of its Drake profits, then Aspire keeps 1/3, and gives the other two-thirds to Prince.

In the suit, Prince says the problem is Young Money hasn't paid Aspire, so he's getting zippo -- and he's wondering why Lawrence isn't suing to get the money. JP points out the contract requires Aspire to use "best efforts" to get the funds.

Sources connected to Prince's company say they think something fishy's going on at Aspire -- that it's possibly struck a side deal with Young Money, and cut JP out of the equation.

Lawrence tells us there's no side deal, and Aspire's received zero Drake profits from Young Money. Sounds a lot like Young Money owner Lil Wayne's beef with Cash Money, right?

You know what still rolls downhill.

Porn Star Mary Carey Files for Divorce ... Claims Erectile Differences

Published | Updated

Porn star and ex-politician Mary Carey is ending her marriage and says it's all because she's super horny and not getting enough nookie.

Mary filed the divorce docs last week in L.A. and cited irreconcilable differences -- but she tells TMZ, at least for her, the marriage to electrician Mario Monge crumbled over their lack of sex.

She claims Mario wanted her to be a housewife, get rid of her XXX moniker and go by her maiden name, Mary Ellen Cook. She admits she just didn't want to let go of her porn alter ego.

Still, it was no quickie ... the marriage lasted more than 6 and a half years. The ex Cali gubernatorial candidate is requesting spousal support, their '03 Cadillac, '04 Corvette and North Hollywood apartment. They don't have any kids.

As for the single life, Mary says she's ready to "meet people and have lots of sex."

Bone Thugs-N-Harmony Krayzie Cancels Tour ... Battling Potentially Fatal Disease

Published | Updated

Bone Thugs-N-Harmony rapper Krayzie Bone was forced to postpone his tour because he's battling the same disease and flu like symptoms that killed comedian Bernie Mac.

Krayzie tells TMZ he suffers from sarcoidosis, an autoimmune disease that attacks the lungs. He thinks he came down with an intense case of pneumonia during a Canadian tour because his sarcoidosis meds weaken his immune system.

His doctors didn't want to take any chances, so they ordered Krayzie to cancel the rest of his gigs and head back to L.A. for treatment.

The rapper expects to make up the missed shows once he recovers.
