Richard Marx heroically fought off and restrained an out-of-control passenger during a flight from Vietnam to South Korea ... and his wife, Daisy Fuentes, captured the whole ordeal.

Daisy took a bunch of pics as Korean Air flight attendants and the '80s hitmaker teamed up to take down the man. You can see Richard was throwing elbows and even holding the rope tied around the guy.

According to Daisy and Richard ... the flight crew was "completely ill trained" for combat. One of the flight attendants had a taser, but had no clue how to use it ... at least that's how Daisy saw it.

She says they battled the attacker for 4 hours, and 2 passengers and a crew member were injured. Seoul police arrested the guy when they landed.

Richard Marx. Badass. Who knew?

Kanye West's stay at UCLA Med Center had some staffers hunting for medical info, according to multiple people at the facility ... who tell TMZ a slew of people couldn't resist attempting to look at his info in the computer.

Multiple sources tell us ... members of the Medical Center staff were curious when Kanye was admitted and a number of them attempted to gain access to the computer system. Several sources tell us officials at the Medical Center have conducted an investigation. One source says several dozen people have been or will be fired. Other sources simply say the investigation is ongoing and they expect firings.

Our Kanye sources say they have not been contacted.

Zach Braff and Mitt Romney have a weird connection that involves witchcraft ... in the late 1600s.

This is gonna sound bizarre, but we got Zach heading out of Catch in L.A. Monday night (not the bizarre part), and he confirmed he and the former Mass. Gov found out they're both descendants of the same real-life witch from the Salem Witch Trials.

Her name was Rebecca Nurse, and she was hanged in 1692. There was reportedly no evidence against her, and her death is often credited with changing public perspective on the trials.

2-time Wimbledon champ Petra Kvitova suffered stab wounds to her hand Tuesday morning during a terrifying home invasion attack in the Czech Republic -- and says she's "fortunate to be alive."

Christina El Moussa's relationship with Tarek is officially a flop ... and she wants to make sure he's 100% clear on that.

Sources close to Christina tell us there's absolutely zero chance Christina will get back with Tarek because she's fully turned the page. She'll remain friendly for the sake of their 2 kids and hit show, "Flip or Flop" -- but that's it.

We're told Christina's still dating the contractor who offered her a shoulder to cry on back in May, Gary Anderson -- but even if she weren't, she's beyond the point of ever getting back with Tarek.

As for last week's awkward meet-up at Starbucks -- we're told that's just what co-parenting looks like for Tarek and Christina ... especially since they hand off the kids every week.

As we told you last week ... a source close to the former couple told us they hadn't quite thrown in the towel. Our Christina source wouldn't speak for Tarek, but told us Christina's definitely NOT leaving a light on for her ex.

Cedric the Entertainer isn't playing the Donald-Trump-Is-Not-My-President game ... he thinks people need to shelve their anger and fix some big problems in this country.

We got Cedric Monday night at Catch where he talked about police brutality and a system that assumes guilt.

Prince might be dead, but that doesn't mean he's off the hook with a divorce lawyer who claims the singer signed off without paying his $600k tab.

Cousins Law Firm in West Palm Beach filed a claim with the singer's estate demanding payment of a $599,735.63 bill.

Patrick Cousins tells TMZ the bill dates all the way back to Prince's 2006 divorce from second wife Manuela Testolini.

Cousins says he and Prince were tight and had an agreement the singer didn't have to pay until all the loose ends were tied up. We asked the lawyer what would take 10 years to complete, but he wouldn't say.

Cousins claims he finished everything on April 1 ... Prince died April 21.

Eddie Money is going to get grilled by lawyers for his ex-drummer, who's suing Money for wrongful termination and sexually harassing his fiancee.

The court just ordered depositions for Money, his wife Laurie Mahoney, several band members and the band's agent. The drummer, Glenn Symmonds, claims Eddie ridiculed him onstage for having to pee all the time ... which he says is a side effect of bladder cancer.

Symmonds' fiancee also toured with the band, working the merch booth ... and in the lawsuit, she accuses Money of forcibly trying to make out with her in a bathroom stall.

The couple filed the lawsuit against Money shortly after Symmonds says he was canned.

Now, here's Eddie and Glenn in happier times ...

Hugh Jackman's mouth says he's hanging up his Wolverine claws, but his ripped beach body says otherwise.

Hugh took a dip down in Australia, where someone tried to show him up by flashing even more skin ... downstairs, anyway.

Smuggling. It's not just for drug dealers anymore.

John Legend seems to be walking back his criticism of Kanye West meeting with Donald Trump.

We caught up with the singer Monday at LAX where our photog asks if he'd take a similar meeting.

The lawyers representing women who claim a L'Oréal hair relaxer burned their head aren't just suing -- now they're demanding an urgent recall of the product.

TMZ broke the story ... L'Oréal was sued for selling a celebrity-backed product called SoftSheen-Carson Optimum Amla Legend No-Mix, No-Lye Relaxer -- which the plaintiffs say singed their scalp and made them go bald.

L'Oréal fired back in docs, saying its packaging warns this very danger, and clearly instructs consumers on how to use it safely.

Ben Meiselas and Mark Geragos, who rep the alleged victims, say that's a load of BS ... and add L'Oréal is admitting the product has dangerous chemicals, despite advertising it "protects the scalp and skin."

Geragos' firm says it's downright absurd to blame the women harmed by the product, and they won't relax until the relaxer is completely pulled from the shelves.

Camila Cabello made up her mind a long time ago that she was done with Fifth Harmony -- but only officially gave notice a month ago ... so say sources close to the band.

Unlike Camila's account, sources with Fifth Harmony tell TMZ she just dropped the bomb on them mid-November ... with no prior discussions to her leaving.

We're told label execs and the other girls tried to coordinate meetings with Camila for months, in an effort to talk about the future of the group. Sources say Camila ducked all of those. A therapist was even brought on to work with the members ... again, we're told Camila was a no-show for those sessions.

Beyonce straight-up jacked the Roc-A-Fella logo and slapped it onto one of her music videos ... so claims the guy who claims he designed the logo.

Dwayne Walker says Queen B never asked permission to prominently display the logo in B's "Drunk in Love" music video ... and now he wants the court to put a stop to it and cut him a slice of the profits.

According to the docs ... Dwayne says he owns the rights to the original Roc-A-Fella logo and it shouldn't have been used in her music vid.

It's interesting ... we took a look at the video and the only time you see anything even resembling the logo is a quick shot of Jay Z's glitzy pendant. The rapper's not named or mentioned in the suit.

It's also worth noting Dwayne sued Jay for $7 million over the logo but lost the case back in September.

We've reached out to Bey's reps ... so far no word back.

No matter where the Queen of Christmas goes this time of year ... it seems as if Mariah Carey's jingle, "All I Want For Christmas Is You," seems to just start playing like a holiday soundtrack.

Mimi reveled in the song playing in the background as she hit the ground Monday in the resort town of Aspen. She'll be spending the holidays in a massive Airbnb mansion.
