Forget about James Harden and Lamar ... seems like Khloe Kardashian has already moved on to her next baller -- NFL superstar Odell Beckham Jr.

TMZ Sports obtained pics of the two getting super close at Drake's pool party in Hidden Hills on Memorial Day ... with Khloe droppin' her big ol' butt right on top of the NY Giants superstar.

The pics were taken around midnight -- and our sources inside the party tell us KK and OBJ were "definitely into each other" and "looked like a couple."

By the way, in case there was any doubt the woman in the pics is Khloe -- we found video of KK wearing the same exact dress and Yeezy shoes at a different pool party earlier that day.

Actor Michael Jace -- a regular on "The Shield" -- was convicted of 2nd degree murder in his wife's death.

A jury in L.A. found him guilty of shooting and killing April Jace in 2014. During the trial, the jury heard a transcript of Michael's interview with police ... where he said he only intended to shoot her in the leg while they were arguing about a divorce.

Michael shot April twice in the leg and once in the back, according to prosecutors ... while their 2 sons were in the house.

As we reported ... April's parents called 911 to report the shooting, saying Jace had called them and confessed.

His sentencing is scheduled for June 10, and he's facing 40 years to life in prison.

Justin Martin -- who co-starred with Zac Efron in 'High School Musical 3' -- will be locked up for 18 months after pleading guilty to 5 gun charges ... TMZ has learned.

The Suffolk County D.A.'s office tells us Martin appeared in court Tuesday for sentencing. In addition to the jail time ... he also got one year probation, during which he has to lay off drugs and booze and stay away from the scene of the crime.

As we reported back in July ... Martin ran away from cops in Boston and pointed a gun at officers before he was chased and captured. He pled guilty to assault with a dangerous weapon, illegal possession of a gun and ammunition, carrying a loaded gun and firing a gun near a building.

Justin tells TMZ, "I have matured a great deal in the past year and had to learn some hard lessons because of my actions." He added, "I look forward to moving past this time in my life and getting back to my career."

Britney Spears didn't hit too much traffic Memorial Day weekend because she spent it in a very affordable and reasonably priced Malibu beachfront crib.

Britney stayed at an ultra-modern, secluded pad just on the other side of the Santa Monica Mountains from her Thousand Oaks home. We're told the going rate per night on Airbnb is only $8,000. See, affordable ... for Brit, but she didn't have to pay because they hooked it up.

The property looks amazing ... two open-air buildings plus a pool directly on the beach. Best of all, the 5-bedroom estate is ultra secluded.

Perfect for a little R&R ... when you have 9 and 10-year-old boys bringing over friends.

It's now official ... Mark Salling got booted from his starring villain role in "Adi Shankar’s Gods and Secrets" -- just days after his child porn indictment ... TMZ has learned.

We're told production will start re-shoots of Salling's scenes, and Shankar is personally footing the bill for it. We're told Shankar is going a step further ... donating a percentage of profits from the project to an abused children's charity.

The former "Glee" star was indicted last week on 2 counts of child porn. Shankar reacted quickly, saying ... "Child abuse is a cultural cancer whose tentacles penetrate far deeper than a single celebrity caught with illicit images on his computer."

We're told Salling's replacement has not been cast yet.

Amber Heard screamed to Johnny Depp in the middle of their argument last week, "Stop hitting me!!!" Problem is ... when she screamed Johnny was more than 6 yards away -- so claim 2 witnesses.

Sources connected to the case tell TMZ, 2 security guards -- Jerry Judge and Sean Bett -- were standing in the entryway inside Johnny and Amber's apartment unit, giving them space during the argument, when out of nowhere they heard Amber scream.

The guards say "within a second" they bolted into the living area and saw Johnny in the kitchen and Amber on the couch in the living room -- it's an open floor plan. Both guards say Johnny was at least 20 feet away from her.

We're told, according to Johnny, both he and Amber knew the guards were in the entryway and the scream was a badly executed attempted setup.

The guards -- both of whom are expected to testify next month during the restraining order trial -- also say throughout Johnny and Amber's 15-month marriage, she was the one who flew into rages ... screaming at him, throwing bottles, and charging him. They claim they frequently had to pull her off Johnny.

Amber claims her alleged injuries were caused when Johnny hurled an iPhone at her. The 2 guards support what the responding cops say ... she had no visible injuries. Amber claims there was broken glass on the floor and even submitted photos in her legal docs, but the guards insist there was no broken glass, and the cops say nothing was amiss.

Shaunie O'Neal's got a ton of questions for the mother at the center of the Cincinnati Zoo tragedy -- starting with how the woman allowed her 4-year-old to wander THAT far away.

As a mother of 5, the 'Baskeball Wives' creator has strong opinions about what went wrong at the zoo -- but Shaunie's not laying ALL the blame on the parents. While some critics are calling for social services to get involved ... Shaunie says pump the brakes on that. For now.

Shaunie also tells us how she would have reacted in the same situation. She's only half-kidding ... we think.

Laverne Cox's birthday bash should give you a pretty good idea of what the "Orange Is the New Black" cast gets into when they're not locked inside Litchfield.

Cox, who turned 32, hit up Beyonce's Formation tour Saturday in Chicago, but the party continued Monday night inside a NYC hotel room with her 'OITNB' co-stars.

Check it out ... Flaca, Poussey and Taystee were all there and the rager wasn't a far departure from the Netflix show since there was even a little girl-on-girl lap dancing.

No cops or corrections officers were called.

Amber Heard took the high road by not calling the cops after Johnny Depp allegedly brutalized her, but Johnny's "relentless attacks and outright lies" has now forced her to file a police report ... so says her lawyer.

Attorney Samantha Spector has come out swinging, saying Amber did not file a police report when the alleged incident occurred "to protect her privacy and Johnny's career."

Spector says Heard tried to keep the alleged incident "as private as possible," but Johnny and media reports have now forced her hand. Spector says, "Amber can no longer endure the relentless attacks and outright lies launched against her character," adding, "We took the high road."

Spector says LAPD cops observed injuries to Amber and the disarray in the apartment when they arrived. This is in sharp contrast to what LAPD told us ... that there were no signs of injury and no signs of disarray.

Amber's lawyer says her client "has suffered through years of physical and psychological abuse at the hands of Johnny." They've been married for 15 months.

The UFC fighter who's scheduled to take on Holly Holm in July miraculously escaped injury in a violent shootout in Peru ... though her trainer was shot while exchanging gunfire with the bad guys.

The woman caught in the crossfire is Valentina Shevchenko -- who was reportedly dining at a restaurant in Lima when three gun-toting men in motorcycle helmets came in to rob the place.

Donald Trump is weighing in on the shooting of Harambe, the gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo ... and giving the shooters a thumbs up.

Trump was asked about the horrifying incident -- the 4-year-old boy falling into the enclosure and getting dragged around by the gorilla -- and said, the way he sees it ... there were only seconds to spare.

Victoria's Secret model Shanina Shaik is throwing shade at her ex Tyson Beckford for fighting her fiancé DJ Ruckus' outside a NYC nightclub.

Shanina touched down in Miami and declared she hasn't spoken to Beckford in the last year ... so she's puzzled why he's still got beef. We broke the story ... Shanina's current guy and her ex brawled a couple weeks ago.

Shanina's on Tyson's turf down in MIA, but explained how she plans to avoid any more drama. And then she poured salt in his breakup wound by posting this pic.

Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated his championship the same way he won it -- very, very shirtless ... except now he's on a yacht.

The soccer star -- fresh off scoring the decisive penalty kick to give Real Madrid its 11th UEFA Champions League title -- was hanging with friends Sunday catching rays and a dip off the coast in Ibiza, Spain.

It's like he never got dressed after ripping off his jersey. And, honestly ... why should he?

Drake's Memorial Day party Monday turned pretty ugly when fights broke out and cops came.

We're told police got multiple excessive noise complaints from 9 PM to 10:30 PM, when police paid a visit to Drake's Hidden Hills estate. Things were calmer, so cops left.

We're told girls had been arriving literally by the busload all day. It got extremely rowdy as the day went on and we're told several girl fights erupted. A neighbor tells us at one point paramedics showed up but we don't know the circumstances.

Amber Heard is now fighting her domestic violence battle on 2 fronts ... the LAPD is sticking to its story the cops who responded to the 911 call saw no evidence of injury and no disarray in the apartment.

Amber's lawyer said Monday, "The LAPD officers viewed not only the disarray that Johnny had caused in the apartment but also the physical injuries to Amber's face."

TMZ broke the story ... the cops who responded say they saw no evidence of injury, no disarray ... no evidence of a crime. An LAPD official tells us they are sticking to their story.

Johnny says Amber is lying ... he never struck her with an iPhone. As we reported, 2 bodyguards were in the entryway of the apartment during the argument and they heard Amber scream, "Stop hitting me!" They say within a second they entered the living area and saw Amber sitting on a sofa in the living room and Johnny at least 20 feet away in the kitchen.

Amber's lawyer says she was trying to protect Johnny's career and that's why she did not file a police report but she'll do it now, because her character is being assassinated.

Rapper Troy Ave's nursing a gunshot wound to his right leg and facing an attempted murder charge ... both from behind bars.

The accused shooter from T.I.'s NYC concert last week was wheeled into a court Monday ... where he entered a not guilty plea. Troy was arrested -- from his hospital bed -- last week after NYPD released surveillance video of him opening fire inside the venue.

Troy's attorney, Scott Leemon, says that video doesn't show the full story of what happened before and after Troy opened fire. He could still be charged with murder if ballistics testing connect him to the death of his bodyguard, Ronald McPhatter.

The NY Daily News got pics of police wheeling him into court. The judge ordered him to be held without bail.
