Kim Kardashian I'm Done Being Flashy But I'm Not Selling My Insane Mansion!

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian says she's shunning certain extravagances in her life like jewelry, but that doesn't mean she won't still be living in the lap of luxury.

Sources connected to Kim and Kanye tell us they are NOT changing their plan to move into their $20 million Hidden Hills mansion, which is beyond opulent with 8 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, a spa, movie theater, a make-up room, a lake, and on and on -- 30,000 square feet and all.

By the way, the house was brand new when they bought it, they took it down to the studs and then rebuilt and expanded it at a cost of more than $10 million. They're still months away from moving in.

So, how does Kim reconcile shedding "material things" with her mega-mansion? There's actually a good explanation -- the place will be as secure as Fort Knox and security for them is everything.

For starters, the estate is in a gated community. As for the property itself, it has state-of-the-art security, including cameras, alarms, motion detectors and from what we understand, a safe room.

The place will be flanked by armed security guards -- 24/7.

Kim was on Ellen's show last week talking about how the Paris robbery changed her life and she wasn't into flashy, materialistic things that once defined her life. Fact is ... it's not inconsistent to shun fancy cars and jewelry but still live nicely, when the nice stuff serves a purpose.

GOIN' CRAZY

Travis Scott's fans were packed like sardines at his concert, and the overflow had some fans going over the edge -- literally leaping off a balcony into a mosh pit.

Travis was performing at Terminal 5 Sunday night in NYC ... where fans willingly jumped from the 2nd level to the main floor, totally trusting the sea of fans below to catch them.

We're told some fans jumped to escape the pack and insanely hot conditions, but others were clearly just following Travis' call to get in the mosh pit. The rapper seemed to feel bad for one fan who had to be carried out because of an injury.

Law enforcement sources tell us nobody was cited for the incident and FDNY was not called to transport anyone.

Carl Bernstein Trump Should Be Kissing the Media's Ass!

Published | Updated

President Trump's weekend attack on the press was not only "venomous," but laughable according to legendary journalist Carl Bernstein ... who thinks POTUS needs to show some gratitude.

The guy who cracked Watergate took aim at Trump's presidency when we saw him Sunday in downtown D.C., the morning after Trump skipped the White House Correspondents' Dinner and ripped the "fake news" coverage of his administration.

Bernstein, who was at the WHCD, believes the prez has it ALL wrong when it comes to the media's job description. He also tells Trump to remember how he even got to the White House.

The beef is officially on the grill.

Prince Estate We're Holding Back New Music For Our Reality Show!

Published | Updated

Prince's estate wants to get into the reality show biz, and that's why it went to war to shut down the release of a new album on the anniversary of his death.

Sources close to Prince's heirs tell us the reality show, featuring family members, is in the works right now, and will focus on how their lives have changed since he died.

We're told the family's fighting George Ian Boxill, the producer of the "Deliverance" EP, to keep the music under wraps ... so they can debut it on the show. So, the good news is ... there's still hope the music will see the light of day. The question is when?

We're told the reality show is still in early development. They have a production company on board, but no deal to air yet.

Meanwhile, the court has ordered Boxill to turn over the music to the estate, but he's still fighting that.

LOVE FOR THE GLOVES

Guy says his kid was PUMPED -- but as fate would have it, he didn't get to keep them that long ... because days after the game, they got a call from someone very important asking to hand them over.

The Fieris complied -- but don't worry, the gloves are in a very cool place ... and Edelman made sure he got some cool replacement gear.

It's good to be a Fieri!

Donnell Rawlings Delta Fight Was Totally Avoidable Follow These Rules, Folks

Published | Updated

Donnell Rawlings isn't surprised the Delta fight went down in the ATL ... but he says it was totally avoidable if people would just do a few simple things onboard the aircraft.

We got the comedian Sunday at LAX and asked about the Delta brawl where a pilot punched a woman in who was in an all-out brawl with another passenger. He had A LOT to say.

Donnell's not surprised it went down in Atlanta, and his reasoning is pretty hilarious.

As for the pilot ... Donnell says he must've gotten some combat training somewhere ... like a Trump rally or something.

CREME DE LA CRIME

Fabio says the criminals who burglarized his home were lucky his Rottweilers weren't out, but ultimately it's the governor and state of California's fault it happened at all.

The romance novel legend vented to us about the recent increase in L.A. burglaries -- and he firmly believes the passing of Prop 57, which Gov. Jerry Brown championed, is to blame.

57 made thousands of non-violent crime felons eligible for parole. As we reported, many cops also think those ex-cons are behind the string of burglaries at homes of celebs like Nicki Minaj, Alanis Morissette and many more.

Fabio was reportedly burglarized for about $200k worth, but you can tell he's definitely more pissed about the law than his stuff.

The superstar model and Yankee legend got hitched during the prime of their careers on January 14, 1954, but the marriage only lasted 9 months due to Joe's alleged jealousy.

'Godfather' Cast & Crew The Family Reunites ... Don Corleone Insisted

Published | Updated

Robert De Niro made his team at Tribeca an offer they couldn't refuse ... him, Al Pacino and the rest of "The Godfather" cast and crew on one stage together again.

Bob, Al, Robert Duvall, James Caan, Diane Keaton, Talia Shire and even Francis Ford Coppola himself reunited Saturday for the closing night of the Tribeca Film Festival in NYC.

De Niro got the panel together after a back-to-back screening of Part 1 & 2 of the classic mobster movies. He runs the festival after all ... so it's not like anyone was gonna tell him no. It's also the 45th anniversary of Part 1.

The old cast dished on stuff that went down behind the scenes of the movies -- like the cat that wandered onto Marlon Brando's lap ... or Al and Diane getting loaded after the wedding scene ... or everyone mooning each other at one point on set. Oh, and Paramount's reluctance to cast Al, of course.

As lovely as it might have been to see these stars come together for 2 cinematic gems, the night proved long. Their whole event wrapped 9 hours later.

Leave the double feature ... take the Q&A.

Kim Kardashian Black Magic Woman

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian had her spell on just about everyone who saw her in the 90210 Saturday night -- even in all black ... you couldn't miss her.

Kim was leaving a friend's party in Bev Hills where she was wearing a hugging body suit, jeans and knee-high boots ... with a coat that was almost half on.

She just got home from a vacay in Mexico with Kourtney and some friends, where she was showing off a lot more of her body. Here, she's toned it down -- maybe even doing a different take on the flu look she pulled off so well just a couple weeks ago.

Whatever the outfit ... Kim definitely has the magic touch. Take it away, Carlos.

Delta Pilot Hit Passenger to Release Choke Hold

CLOSE-UP OF THE FIGHT

The Delta pilot who smacked a passenger and then walked away delivered the punch to get the woman to release a choke hold she had on the woman she was fighting ... at least that's what the airline concluded.

When you watch the video, it's confusing. It appears the pilot almost gratuitously delivers the punch out of frustration and then walks away. But a Delta official tells TMZ the video doesn't show everything, and based on interviews with the pilot, eyewitnesses and information from cops ... the pilot saw the woman in question choking out the other woman. And the pilot did what he could to release the dangerous grip.

As we reported ... the pilot was taken off duty after the incident but put back on the schedule after the airline concluded he did nothing wrong.

Neither of the women wanted to press charges against anyone.

Chrissy Teigen Oh, Baby ... Luna

Published | Updated

Chrissy Teigen is one hot mama ... which her baby, Luna, reminds us of very well here.

Chrissy went shopping Saturday with her super-duper cute 1-year-old daughter in New York City. Naturally, Chrissy was showing plenty of cleavage in her model mom outfit.

She's told us her boobs have good days and (allegedly) bad ones, too. Looks like this day was one of the good ones ... for us, at least.

We're sure John would agree. Kendrick in the back seems to as well.

GETTING BACK TO NORMAL

Jamie Lynn Spears is happy to give an update on her daughter's health after an almost fatal incident on an ATV earlier this year -- but don't ask if she'll ride again.

We got Jamie leaving L.A. Sunday after joining Britney at the 2017 Radio Disney Music Awards Saturday night. She told us her 8-year-old daughter, Maddie, is 100% after having to be put on a ventilator in February from an ATV accident.

But watch how she reacts to being asked if Maddie will get back on one of the vehicles that nearly killed her ... not nearly as chatty.

We broke the story ... Maddie's ATV flipped into a pond where she was trapped and submerged for several minutes. She was on a ventilator for at least a day.

Apparently, some things are off limits for Jamie when it comes to her kid.

Chad Johnson Cops Gave Me a Lift But Dumped Me at a Gas Station!!!

Published | Updated

Chad Johnson was lucky to run into a highway patrol officer who was kind enough to give him a lift when his car blew a tire ... but duty called, and Chad was unceremoniously kicked to the curb.

Chad tells TMZ Sports he was driving home from a football game in Miami when he blew a tire. The former Bengals star didn't have a spare, so the whip had to be towed. An officer offered to take him home, and it actually looked pretty awesome for a while -- Chad in the back seat ... vibing out to Kanye.

But then ... a dispatcher sounded the alarm ... someone committed a 187 -- murder -- and the officer had to book it. So he dropped Chad off at a gas station.

He posted the video on Snapchat but didn't explain the circumstances. Mystery solved.
