Shareef O'Neal says he's not only ready to take on LeBron James in a 1-on-1 match -- he's VERY confident he could get buckets on the King and says Bron should call him to set it up!!

It was just a few years ago when Reef was 15 that he told us his dream was to play against Bron -- and now that he's closer to making that happen, we asked how he thinks he'd do.

FYI, Shareef is 17 -- one of the best high school players in America -- and just committed to play college ball at the University of Arizona after his senior year.

The good news ... Shareef's clearly got some of Shaq's confidence -- telling us he would easily rack up some points on the NBA legend.

But the best part of the video is the end when Shareef delivers a message to Bron -- "You know how to contact me. I'm ready for a game."

Antonio Sabàto, Jr.'s calling it quits with his wife and the divorce is getting nasty ... with her making allegations of drug abuse as he launches a run for Congress.

The former soap star filed docs on December 27 to split from Cheryl Marie after a 5-year marriage. They have a 6-year-old son together and in docs, obtained by TMZ, she says she's concerned about the kid's safety due to Antonio's drug addiction.

Cheryl claims Antonio has struggled with prescription drugs ... specifically benzodiazepines -- a class of drugs that includes muscle relaxers, anti-anxiety meds and sleep disorder meds.

In her divorce docs, she says Antonio's admitted using crystal meth before they got together in 2009. She does, however, concede the birth of his daughter from another relationship motivated him to get sober.

Antonio tells TMZ ... he admits going to rehab for issues with sleeping pills. He's not trying to hide it, and says he's an outspoken advocate on addiction issues. However, he added, "Whatever else she says is just a bunch of lies."

A staunch Trump supporter ... Antonio filed docs last week to run for Congress and his platform will reportedly include dealing with the opioid crisis and drug addiction.

Jon Voight is patching things up with Angelina Jolie, and he took time to send her a warm Mother's Day greeting.

We got Jon Saturday night leaving Mastro's Steakhouse, when we asked about his Mother's Day plans he basically made a video greeting card for his daughter. Makes sense ... the longstanding tension between them's been cooling.

Jon had a sushi dinner with Angelina and 4 of his grandkids last week in Bev Hills. They were seen leaving out a back door within moments of each other.

Whatever the reason for the reunion -- Jon says he just wants to keep the love train rolling.

Russell Wilson and Ciara don't give a crap what the Internet says about their family ... baby Future's gonna hang with his stepdad whether you like it or not.

Ciara posted this video Sunday afternoon of Future Jr. getting his Mother's Day on with Russ right next to him. Yeah, the kid's cute as hell, but this clip's more significant than that.

Russell caught some heat from online trolls who thought he was out of line for including Future's son when he said, "our kids."

1:00 PM PT -- Rogers PD issued a statement saying Travis encouraged people to rush the stage at his show, bypassing security protocols in the process. They add ... several people were injured, including a security guard and a cop. A source close to Travis tells TMZ that he saw available space in the general admission toward the front, so he invited seated guests in the back to come forward. We're told he had no intention of putting anyone in danger.

Travis Scott's concert in Arkansas came to a rude ending when cops hauled him way for inciting a riot ... TMZ has confirmed.

Travis was performing in Rogers, Arkansas Saturday night, and according to several witnesses the officers met him as soon as he left the stage. Law enforcement sources tell us he was booked for inciting a riot, endangering welfare of a minor and disorderly conduct. He was released without bail around 11:30 PM. He'll also have to return to Arkansas for a court date.

You'll recall ... he got busted for the same thing a couple years ago at Lollapalooza in Chicago.

More recently, Travis encouraged fans in NYC to jump from balconies. It's kinda his thing ... getting fans super turnt, but cops in Arkansas weren't having it.

It doesn't appear Kylie Jenner was with him last night. Not shockingly, #freetravisscott is already a thing ... even though he's already free.

Celebs owe a lot to their mothers -- they wouldn't be here without 'em, after all -- and on Mother's Day ... there was no shortage of gratitude.

Stars flooded social media with pics honoring their mamas -- and in many cases even themselves and/or their spouses -- including shots from Miley Cyrus, John Legend, Bella and Gigi Hadid, John Stamos, Mariah Carey, Kris Jenner, Cristiano Ronaldo, Ivanka Trump, Tom Brady, Kevin Hart, Bindi Irwin, Cindy Crawford, Ariana Grande ... and many, many more.

Drake did the impossible ... by escorting his little cousin and her date into prom, he actually made it cool to have a chaperone. Just this once.

Drizzy did his cuz, Jalaah Moore, a major solid by showing up this weekend in Memphis. And as you'd expect ... he spoiled the couple and made 'em total ballers. Sources close to the family tell TMZ Drake flew in Saturday ... ordered them a white Rolls Royce to drive them to prom, and also paid for their custom matching outfits.

Drake also crashed the dance at Fairley High School -- major social points for Jalaah -- but we're told he didn't perform ... just hung out. We imagine the other chaperones were as starstruck as the kids.

Afterward, he threw Jalaah a party at Hard Rock for about 400 of her suddenly super-close friends.

BTW, Drake's dad is Jalaah's grandma's bro. So, yeah ... best 2nd cousins ever!

Katy Perry is in the homestretch ... negotiating a deal to become the anchor judge on "American Idol," and the announcement is expected to go down Tuesday.

TMZ broke the story ... 'AI' honchos set their sights on Perry after their bid for Kelly Clarkson went south and she joined "The Voice." Sources familiar with the negotiations tell us Idol's goal is to announce Katy is joining the reboot during the ABC Upfronts this week. Our sources say they will not announce the other 2 judges because 'Idol' hasn't even decided who it wants.

As we reported, Ryan Seacrest will almost certainly be the host.

Here's the challenge. Idol went off the air on FOX because it became too expensive to produce, and everyone involved in the show doesn't want a repeat of that problem. Seacrest and Perry will not come cheap, for sure ... so the other 2 judges can't break the bank.

Fact is, Idol's last few seasons had big stars, but the show didn't get bang for its buck. We're told the other judges will likely be a songwriter and a music producer.

Our sources say producers and the network don't feel the need to get 3 big singing stars on the panel, because ultimately the show is about the competition and making it interesting.

Bottom line: Sorry, Steven Tyler. It ain't gonna work out ...

David Foster is a man of his word ... he not only showed up at a birthday party for one of our camera guys, but he brought Christie Brinkley -- and they both sang!

The legendary songwriter/producer walked into the Stinking Rose, grabbed a seat at the piano and started playing a string of hits ... including "I Will Always Love You" and "Got to Be Real." In honor of Christie, he even launched, briefly, into Billy Joel's "Uptown Girl."

There's been buzz about David and Christie dating for a few months. They didn't confirm anything, but c'mon ... he brought her to a TMZ photog's party. That's gotta seal the deal.

Foster also brought his singer pal, Sheléa Frazier ... that's her doing "Got to Be Real."

Our guy, Kris, first mentioned his party to David on a lark at Craig's a couple weeks ago. We'll say it ... we didn't believe he'd actually do it, but here's proof David's not your typical entertainment icon.

Kendall Jenner nearly had a seriously awkward moment when she and A$AP Rocky ended up at the same party as her ex, Lakers guard Jordan Clarkson -- except Jordan had the smoothest reaction.

The trio were all at the Peppermint Club in WeHo Saturday night. Remember, Jordan and Kendall were a thing just last fall ... so you could understand him not being too thrilled to see her with her new guy.

But score one for Jordan ... we got him as his car was pulled around, and asked about bumping into Kendall. His reply was basically, "I'm a playa!" And then he piled into his ride with 3 hot chicks!

Meanwhile ... Kendall and A$AP did the sneak out separately thing trying to avoid cameras. Fail.

"Lakers win! Lakers win!!"

JetBlue gave a family the ole heave ho off a flight after a dispute with flight attendants over birthday cake ... that left 2 little kids in tears.

The Burke family was flying out of JFK Airport to Las Vegas earlier this month when things got heated. According to Cameron Burke -- who shot video of the incident -- he and his family had the cake as carry-on. It was special ordered to celebrate his wife's 40th.

The Burkes say a flight attendant first argued with them over whether to place it in overhead or under the seat ... and then another attendant arrived and said it couldn't be on board at all. Cameron says that 2nd attendant, the "mean" one told him he was being "non-compliant" when he attempted to calm things down.

He admits he asked her, "Have you been drinking?" -- because he felt she was being erratic and irrational about a cake. In the video, you can see the Burke kids getting upset ... especially when police showed up.

Officers escorted the Burkes, who went peacefully, off the plane. A JetBlue spokesman told ABC7 -- which first reported the story -- the Burkes were yelling and cursing at the crew, and disruptive.

Cameron denies that, and says he's already talking to attorneys about filing a lawsuit.

Katy Perry has officially lost her appetite for cherry pie ... she literally can't stomach another bite.

Katy was out pumping up her new single, "Bon Appetite" this weekend at the Wango Tango concert in Carson, CA -- and noshed on a big ole cherry pie. It's been her big promo gag lately for the song.

Unfortunately, Katy has her limits when it comes to snacking on pie ... and this time she spit it out with a very grossed out look.

Must not have been her recipe, but that face is priceless.

Russell Wilson simply tried to wish his wife, Ciara, a happy Mother's Day, but some Future fans are giving him flak for seemingly claiming the rapper's son as his.

Russell's note on social media to Ciara said, "Nothing better than spending time with you. You are an amazing mom & I'm so grateful." Good so far.

Then, he added, "I get to spend the rest of my life with you & raising our kids. I love you!"

The "our" is what has haters jumping on Russ, not-so-kindly reminding him he shouldn't claim another man's kid. In Russell's defense, baby Future spends a majority of his time with mom and stepdad ... thanks to the custody settlement.

On the other hand ... Russ's fans were also quick to jump to his defense.

File this under no good deed goes unpunished, and ... happy baby mama drama day!

Katy Perry is in line to fill the first judge's chair on the new "American Idol" and negotiations have already begun ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the talks tell us Katy is very interested, and is open to scheduling potential tour dates around the show's taping schedule. We're told ABC is fully on board as well and the only snag at this point is, of course, money.

As we first reported ... negotiations with Kelly Clarkson stalled due to her salary demands, and she decided to bail and coach on "The Voice" instead.

That left 'Idol' behind the 8 ball to land a big name ... and Katy fits that bill ... and then some.

Jane Kaczmarek is raising the bar with her good looks!

Here’s a 48-year-old version of the "Malcolm in the Middle" mom in Los Angeles back in 2003 (left) and 14 years later ... everyone’s favorite dysfunctional TV mother at a premiere last month (right).

Oh mama!

The question is...
