Mark Hamill had a moment -- an emotional one -- at the 'Star Wars' Celebration in Orlando.

Mark and Harrison Ford took this shot backstage with Billie Lourd, Carrie Fisher's daughter. As Luke put it ... "So much like her mother in so many ways- it was almost as if we were cuddling our Princess again."

Billie was in 'The Force Awakens' and will be back in the same role, Lieutenant Connix, for 'The Last Jedi' next year. She paid tribute to her late mom during Thursday's celebration. Not a dry eye.

The Force is with her.

Jennifer Lopez dressed to impress the entire Dominican Republic as she touched down y mira ... worked like a charm!

J Lo arrived at La Romana International Airport in the D.R. with her family for her first-ever concert there slated for Saturday night. Her 9-year-old twins, Max and Emme, are along for the ride, and the whole fam is staying at Casa de Campo Resort and Villas for 10 days of R&R.

As for her Dominican-American boo, Alex Rodriguez, we're told he's planning on joining her shortly.

J Lo was a hit on arrival ... easy to see why.

The Pentagon just released video of the largest non-nuclear bomb in the U.S. arsenal explode in Afghanistan, killing 36 ISIS soldiers.

The bomb -- dubbed MOAB or "Mother of All Bombs" -- had never been used before in combat. The bombing was months in the making ... before Trump took office.

A founding member of the band Jamiroquai has died.

Keyboardist Toby Smith recorded the band's first 5 albums between 1992 and 2002, which contained a number of the group's hits, including "Virtual Insanity," "Deeper Underground" and "Space Cowboy."

Smith, who was only 46, passed Tuesday. The band's Facebook page says he'd been fighting an illness for a long time and had "shown signs of beating it."

Smith stayed in the music business, producing and managing groups and artists.

Jamiroquai's original bassist, Stuart Zender, said in tribute, "I love you so much. My big brother Toby crossed over to the other side ... The most talented musician I have ever had the honor to make music with."

RIP

Sam Hunt will be a married man Saturday after he ties the knot with fiancee Hannah Lee Fowler in his Georgia hometown ... TMZ has learned.

Sources involved in the wedding tell us ... the ceremony will go down in Cedartown, Georgia and it will be a small affair -- close family and friends only.

That doesn't mean Sam's doing it on the cheap ... quite the opposite. We're told renowned Nashville bridal designer Olia Zavozina is all over the wardrobe ... she's designing duds for the men and a super expensive wedding dress for Hannah. She's also dressing Hannah's bridesmaids.

She recently designed Hunt's outfit for the ACM Awards.

The ceremony and reception will be videotaped, but we're told Sam and Hannah will NOT sell their wedding photos to any of the mags.

The couple got engaged in January ... so it's a pretty quick turnaround.

Wedding season has begun!

Joe Jonas is all good to the power of 2!

Joe and gf Sophie Turner were strolling through the SoHo district Thursday in NYC and it's pretty damn clear Joe's delivering the goods. Actually ... more like good, good, and Sophie seems plenty satisfied.

If her smiling face doesn't say it all then just take a closer look ... it's literally written all over her left hand and in plain view -- "Joe Gives Me Da Good Good."

Good work, Joe ... and get it, Sophie!

Gigi Hadid is a NO shortcuts kinda chick ... at least when it comes to her famously flat stomach.

Gigi was out in NYC with her bro, Anwar, and mom, Yolanda, when she tackled the question everyone's been asking this week after she was spotted showing off her abs.

The pic was reminiscent of scores of IG models, and Kardashians, who promote Flat Tummy Tea products -- but Gigi drove one point home with our guy: Do NOT lump me in with the K sisters!

Besides, her real secret is 21.

Katy Perry is such a tease, rolling into a Santa Monica studio with a top secret envelope labeled KP4 ... a not-so-subtle hint at her upcoming album.

She's technically released 4 studio albums already, but only 3 have been under the stage name Katy Perry. She used to go by Katy Hudson.

Kelly Rowland was unfazed by the fur protest that hijacked her book signing, showing no signs she'll change her wardrobe.

Kelly landed at LAX Thursday and only chuckled when our photog asked about the animal rights protest Wednesday at a New Jersey bookstore where she was hawking her new book, 'Whoa, Baby.'

Kelly was Coachella-bound -- even with her old group mate having to bow out -- and had no problem telling us which performer she wants to see most.

Chelsea Clinton's smile says it all -- get yourself someone who looks at you the way her hubby does.

The former First Daughter couldn't hide her Colgate smile while getting lost in her husband Marc Mezvinsky's eyes ... as they took a stroll through the Lincoln Center for the YAGP Gala: Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow ballet performance at the David Koch Theatre in NYC.

Gotta wonder ... what did Marc say or do to make her smile like that.

The Bellagio hotel in Vegas was on fire Thursday night ... literally.

Flames shot up from the roof of the hotel/casino, which created chaos on the Strip. The main artery was shut down as the Fire Dept. struggled to contain the blaze.

People inside the hotel were evacuated, but no injuries ... at least none that were reported.

The fire became the biggest show in town, as tourists gawked at the scene.

Angelina Jolie is putting permanent roots down in L.A. ... she about to become the proud owner of the historic Cecil B. DeMille Estate.

The 6 bedroom, 10 bath pad was on the market for just shy of $25 million, and we're told Angelina paid close to asking.

Stories surfaced that Angelina was considering making an offer, but we've learned she did, the offer was accepted and it's now in escrow.

The home -- considered one of the best in L.A. -- was built in 1913. The famed director lived there until his death in 1959.

Her neighbors will include Ellen Pompeo, Casey Affleck, Natalie Portman, Lauren Graham, Will.I.Am and David Fincher.

The most anyone paid for a home in the area is Lydia Hearst, who plunked down $13 mil, so Angelina's purchase is nearly double.

Rosa Parks changed the course of American history while Dr. David Dao MIGHT change United Airlines' policy, so it's insulting to compare them at all ... so says Rosa's niece.

Urana McCauley tells TMZ what happened to Dao on the United flight is wrong and unfortunate, but it's by no means even remotely close to what her aunt endured as a civil rights pioneer.

Dao's attorney raised a lot of eyebrows Thursday when he quoted a supporter who called Dao the "modern day Asian" version of Parks.

The analogy bombed at the news conference, and ditto with Urana ... who makes a compelling case here for it to NEVER happen again.

Kanye West hasn't hit the stage since November -- and despite heavy speculation -- that's not gonna change at Coachella ... TMZ has learned.

Rumors have been swirling 'Ye would make his big comeback this weekend in the desert. He's featured on "THat Part" by ScHoolboy Q -- a performer this year -- and has worked with Travis Scott (who will arguably play the biggest show of his career at Coachella).

Fans thought Scott's appearance was a big clue Kanye would resurface.

Multiple festival sources are clear ... Kanye will not perform at Coachella ... period.

Kanye's no stranger to the music festival ... he jumped onstage with A$AP Rocky last year and famously headlined in 2011.

No one's saying when Kanye will resurface.

Ryan Lochte's relationship with Brazil is dead ... the swimmer says he'll NEVER go back to the country after his infamous gas station incident at the Olympics.

Here's the thing ... Lochte says he might be banned from the country -- but that's not exactly the case.

The truth is it's still dangerous for Lochte to go back to Brazil since he's still charged with filing a false police report for claiming he was robbed at gunpoint during a night out with Olympic swimmers.

Officials saw it a different way, claiming security guards drew guns on the swimmers after they vandalized a gas station bathroom ... and then urinated in public ... and demanded Lochte's crew fork over cash to cover the damages.

Prosecutors have offered Lochte a plea deal -- essentially a $20,000 fine -- but Lochte hasn't accepted the deal. So, if he does go back to Brazil, he risks being detained and possibly jailed.

But it doesn't sound like that's gonna be a problem since Lochte tells TMZ Sports there's no chance in hell he'll ever return to Rio.
