Daryl Hall wants to move the music outside for his hit show, "Live from Daryl's House" -- but first he'll have to battle an upstate New York town in court.

Daryl's House, the venue where the show is taped, recently filed suit against Pawling, NY for blocking the joint from building an outdoor stage. The town's beef is all about occupancy. Daryl's team says it's being forced to cut it from 318 people to 198 ... or risk getting shut down altogether.

Negotiations had been underway between Pawling officials and management at Daryl's House for the outdoor stage expansion, but they're at a standstill until the numbers game is settled.

Daryl's House says if forced to abide by the lower number, they'll suffer millions of dollars in damages. Hall's jammed on the show with the likes of Wyclef Jean, Kenny Loggins and Elle King.

Jon Gosselin got more dressed up than down for his big debut as a male stripper, and about the only skin he showed was his legs ... in a grass skirt.

The former reality star took the stage Saturday night in Atlantic City, and slipped into all kinds of outfits -- Secret Service agent, firefighter and even a hula dancer -- but never once took off his shirt or pants.

So much for weeks of rehearsing. Walk ... squeeze fake fire hose nozzle ... walk again. Still, women put a few bucks in Jon's waistband.

Guess they were happy to NOT see much.

Paris Jackson spent some time with Caitlyn Jenner on the heels of starting a friendship with one of Caitlyn's daughters.

Paris attended the GLAAD Media Awards Saturday night at the Beverly Hilton, and ran into Caitlyn. Just last week, Paris was spotted shopping in L.A. with Kendall -- which makes sense since PJ is breaking into the modeling biz. Little professional advice.

Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian are not getting married, which is our takeaway after learning her bid to use the Kardashian name to hawk merch has been officially rejected.

We've learned Kim, Khloe and Kourtney were successful in blocking Blac's petition to own the rights to the name Angela Renee Kardashian.

We broke the story ... the sisters didn't want Blac to profit off the family name -- even if she did marry Rob -- so they filed legal docs to stop it. They claimed it created confusion in the marketplace.

Chyna never responded ... and now she's taking the L. Rob can do whatever he wants so marriage is a possibility, but Kris is still buttering his bread and she's pulling all the strings.

Translation -- Blac Chyna's stuck being just Blac Chyna.

Ben Affleck's juggling a lot of roles these days, and his face looks like he got his 2 biggest ones confused Saturday at his daughter's soccer game.

Ben had his full Batman scowl going on the sidelines of Seraphina's match. Maybe he was thinking about "Justice League" promo work ... or maybe someone blew a call in the game.

French Montana has a very charitable policy when it comes to kids hawking candy -- give 'em the money first, ask questions later.

We got French leaving Le Jardin in Hollywood Saturday night, where he helped out a teen selling sweets by handing him cash -- looks like a $100 -- and giving him props for working hard.

Watch his face after he gives up the hundo though. French assumed the kid's a high school athlete raising money for his team, but seems to realize he should've confirmed that sooner.

In the end, French seemed convinced he didn't get ripped off ... which is more than we can say for The Game, who called out the kids as candy "hustlers."

Stephen Belafonte got in the crosshairs of the feds after his brother bragged Belafonte was in possession of a gun ... a gun he is prohibited from owning.

We're told The Department of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms got wind of his brother's comments and went to a judge last week asking for a warrant because Belafonte was reportedly convicted of domestic violence in 2003. He had allegedly gotten into a drunken fight with the mother of his child. As part of the conviction, he was prohibited from possessing firearms.

TMZ broke the story ... the ATF showed up to Belafonte's Hollywood Hills home Friday and waited for him to show to serve the warrant. We're told no gun was found.

Fetty Wap's moving past his robbery by spending quality time with his baby girl, who just turned 1 -- and whose best present didn't cost a dime.

We got Fetty Saturday night at Lure, and asked him about 1-year-old Khari's birthday party this weekend, and what kind of gifts she got.

Not only did he come up with the perfect answer, he also included some props to Masika, Khari's mom.

Justin Trudeau wants a rematch with Matthew Perry after getting his ass kicked in grade school and Matt telling the world about it -- FIGHT!!!

The Canadian PM said "I've been giving it some thought, and you know what, who hasn't wanted to punch Chandler? How about a rematch @MatthewPerry?"

You'll recall ... Matt went on Kimmel earlier this month and told the story of how he once beat up a younger Trudeau for "excelling in a sport."

Now, JT tweeted the challenge on April Fool's day, so chances are he's joking. But it would be awesome!

As long as nothing happened to Trudeau's face, that is.

Maybe Tom Brady's $500,000 valuation for his stolen Super Bowl 51 jersey ain't so far off after all -- because "Shark Tank" star Robert Herjavec says he's down to pony up that kinda dough.

Bobby Shmurda's traded his microphone for a clerking gig while he's behind bars, but he's still making stacks ... of coins.

TMZ has learned Bobby is working in the prison commissary at Clinton Correctional Facility in upstate New York. Our law enforcement sources tell us the former hip-hop star is raking in between 10 to 25 cents an hour ... which comes to a weekly haul of $7.75, at most.

We're told the "Hot N****" rapper, who's serving 7 years for murder conspiracy, has also had beef with other inmates. He got into a brawl in November, but corrections officers broke it up before anyone was seriously hurt.

Bobby did 30 days in Iso and lost phone privileges. And get this ... during that same period, Bobby was also banned from buying anything from the commissary.

Captain Lee Rosbach claims someone filed for bankruptcy for him without his knowledge or consent and he has no idea why ... but he's on the hunt and is looking for revenge.

The "Below Deck" sea captain tells TMZ ... he was shocked to hear reports of his bankruptcy case while he was out at sea filming for season 5.

Lee notified the Dept. of Justice which launched a federal investigation, targeting 2 individuals whose names also appear on the bankruptcy docs -- Maurice Clarence Jeffries and Edward Tinsley. Lee says he doesn't know either. The feds seem to be buying Lee's story.

The "Below Deck" Captain says he has hard proof it's all BS ... the signature on the bankruptcy petition is forged and the social security number is wrong.

WWE star Baron Corbin would send Conor McGregor's ass to the hospital if the beefing stars actually fought ... according to WWE legend Taz.

Candy Crush's creators say a competitor is trying to hook players by stealing all the addictive stuff that made them top dog in mobile gaming ... so now they're out to crush 'em in court.

King.com, the maker of the wildly popular Candy Crush and Bubble Witch mobile games, is suing JoyFox, the makers of the similarly-named Cookie Crush and Bubble Mania, for having "slavishly copied the creative combination of elements that King selected to create a unique and engaging experience."

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Cookie came out 2 years after Candy with nearly identical fantasy worlds where players collect points and complete tasks by aligning candies into rows of 3 matching sets.

JoyFox pulled the same crap, according to the suit, with its Bubbly Mania -- a not-so-cleverly named "blatant clone" of King's Bubble Witch ... which has nearly identical "wand-wielding female protagonists" with cat sidekicks.

King wants JoyFox to stop selling the games and fork over every tasty penny it's made off them. You just want to get back to your game. We know.
