Conor McGregor & GF I'm a Lover & a Fighter!!! ... Couple's Trip to Italy

Conor McGregor's PR tour has touched down in Italy -- where the UFC superstar is still trying to prove he's just your average family man ... and not a violent maniac.
Just days after Conor went on ESPN to apologize for punching a man in the face at a pub, McGregor and his girlfriend, Dee Devlin, flew over to the Amalfi Coast for some R&R.
4/6/19
Conor also brought along his personal photographer to Italy to capture some lovey-dovey pics of the couple ... which we're sure they'll post on social media shortly.
Of course, Conor is desperately trying to push the narrative that he's not a bad guy ... telling Ariel Helwani last week his violent outbursts are a result of being "baited" by troublemakers.
The problem, obviously, is that video evidence doesn't seem to jive with Conor's explanation ... the guy at the Irish pub was just SITTING THERE when Conor punched him in the face.
And, the phone-smashing incident in Miami also seems to have been more about Conor being a jerk than the other guy antagonizing him.
And, don't forget about the 2018 bus attack ... when Conor chartered a plane from Ireland to New York to try and jump Khabib Nurmagomedov ... injuring several innocent people in the process.
The good news ... Conor is using his injured left hand to lift weights during his Italian vacation which is a good sign if he's REALLY hoping to fight again in 2019.
Stay tuned ...

Ex-'Shahs of Sunset' Star Lilly's Husband Files for Divorce

Exclusive

2:12 PM PT -- According to the divorce docs -- obtained by TMZ -- Mir does not list an official date of separation. He cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for the couple's split. He also wants the court to terminate any ability to award spousal support to Lilly.
One of the former stars from "Shahs of Sunset" is being knocked down a few pegs in the hierarchy, 'cause her husband wants a divorce.
Lilly Ghalichi's husband, entrepreneur Dara Mir, just filed court docs, seeking a divorce from his wife of just 2 years. They got in May of 2017, and Lilly put up an intricately-made video of their traditional Persian wedding on YouTube.
She wrote of her nuptials at the time ... "I wanted to share something special with you guys, so I decided to share my wedding video. It was the most incredible day of my life, I wish I could marry my husband a million more times."
Lilly went on to say of her husband and matrimony, "I hope you guys enjoy our video, and I hope you all have your fairy tale wedding one day." This didn't age well, did it?
Anyway, Lilly and Dara have at least one kid together, so custody might be something they need hash out further down the road. Presumably, they also have some shared assets and/or property that'll have to be divvied up as well.
Lilly appeared on 'Shahs' for two seasons between 2012 and 2014. She had an on-again, off-again relationship with a guy named Ali, from whom she clearly moved on after her time on the show.
Back to the drawing board.

Future Alleged Baby Mama Claims ... I've Spent $100k Raising Our Child!!!

Exclusive

12:56 PM PT -- Future's alleged baby mama is speaking out ... claiming she's already out $100,000 after giving birth to a girl she claims is his.
Eliza says she hasn't worked since she was 5 months pregnant, and was forced to sell her car to make ends meet. She claims Future made promises to her, then ghosted, so she took him to court as a last resort. She also says he forced her hand to make her look bad on purpose.
Bottom line ... Eliza says she doesn't need Future to take care of her, but she wants him to support the kid and not abandon "an innocent child."
Future's got more baby mama drama on his hands ... a woman in Florida just slapped the rapper with a paternity case alleging she gave birth to his SEVENTH CHILD!!!
Eliza Seraphin filed legal docs in Broward County, alleging Future is the father of her 4-month-old girl. According to docs obtained by TMZ, Seraphin -- known to her 320k Instagram followers as Eliza Reign -- claims Future ghosted her ever since she gave birth on April 19.
She wants a judge to declare Future the baby daddy and make him ante up child support. Eliza wants the child support retroactively and she wants Hizzoner to tack on hospital expenses she incurred during pregnancy.
Baby mama drama's nothing new for Future, who back in January told radio legend Big Boy he became a father for the sixth time when his son, Hendrix, was born in December.
Future told Big Boy he wants to have more kids ... never mind the legal drama that's followed with in the wake of several births. You'll recall Ciara's had beef with Future over their 5-year-old son.
We've reached out to Future for comment ... so far, no word back.

Post Malone Hooked by Crazy Magic Trick ... At UK Music Festival

Exclusive

Post Malone was practically speechless after witnessing a scary version of Russian Roulette, involving a fish hook, 4 strings and a trick that grabbed PM ... hook, line and sinker.
The impromptu magic show went down Saturday night at the Reading Festival in the UK, where Post was performing. While hanging backstage with Tyla Yaweh, local illusionist Ryan Tricks gave the "Beerbongs & Bentleys" rapper a chance to inflict some serious pain.
Here's how the trick works -- Ryan puts a fishing hook into his mouth, which has four strings looped through it ... but only one of them is actually tied and firmly attached.
Now the queasy part ... Post was tasked with yanking on three strings (his manager, Dre London, ended up helping in the end) to see if he could pick the string that wasn't knotted.
You gotta watch this -- it's totally reminiscent of Christopher Walken and Robert DeNiro in 'Deer Hunter' -- except this is REAL LIFE. Honestly, we can't tell if this was a trick or just Ryan getting super lucky.
Post didn't seem too sure either, but he was more than happy to celebrate with the guy. Beers, of course ... what else???

File Under: Moguls Stick Together!!!
Diddy is throwing his support behind his friend, Jay-Z -- and clapping back at the haters who have been blasting Jay for getting into bed with the NFL.
As we previously reported, Jay and NFL commish Roger Goodell announced a partnership earlier this month -- where Roc Nation will head up music, entertainment and social justice efforts for the NFL.
Some went after Jay saying he turned his back on Colin Kaepernick after publicly supporting the QB in the past. Jay explained that he's trying to turn Colin's kneeling protest into a tangible change for people affected by police brutality.
Now, Diddy is going to bat for Jay too -- while continuing to show support for Colin as well.
"Hov is one of the greatest to ever do it, he has been there more than anybody from the hip hop culture, including me," Diddy said on social media.
"He always has been so selfless and fights for other people. We as a people can not be divided and conquered at this time!!"
As for Kap, Diddy said he's proud of the QB -- adding, "I’ll continue to support him in every way possible."
Diddy says he believes Jay will do some incredible things in his partnership with the NFL -- explaining, "It’s time to play chess not checkers."
Diddy also spelled out why he cares so much about Jay-Z's success.
"I was just watching everything last week but it hurt me to my heart because I know this man personally. He’s one of the most genuine and intelligent black leaders we’ve ever had. We cannot go against each other, there’s not enough of us. I applaud Jay Z and I applaud the NFL for bringing him in."
"This isn’t just about the NFL, it’s about how black and brown people are treated daily across this country. We have to come together and make the hard decisions, nobody is going to do it for us."
"I believe in taking action, taking steps towards the right direction and I support all my brothers that are out here taking ACTION."
"Together we are unstoppable. #BLACKEXCELLENCE!!"

Mama June's house is a mirror image of her real life -- a shambles ... and neighbors are PISSED.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Mama June's neighbors in Hampton, Georgia are fuming because her house is giving the neighborhood a trashy reputation. TMZ's obtained pics showing the evidence ... a huge dumpster truck on her front lawn is the biggest non-attraction.
We're told neighbors reached out to the Homeowners Association to complain about the massive list of violations. That dumpster truck on her front lawn? We're told it's been there for at least a week. There are several trash cans filled to the brim and trash strewn everywhere.
There's more ... a broken window is boarded up ... making it look like the house is abandoned. There's also an AC unit mounted on a window ... a huge no-no, according to the HOA.
The garage door is still dented from when Mama June's BF, Geno, slammed into it with an SUV. As we first reported ... Mama June had a garage sale earlier this month and her behavior was pretty bizarre, to say the least.
As we told you ... Honey Boo Boo's not moving back to her home until Geno's gone. And maybe until the house is in tip top shape.

Colin Kaepernick Hits Gym after Andrew Luck Retirement ... Stayin' Ready

If you stay ready, you don't have to GET ready ... and Colin Kaepernick looks ready!
The quarterback hit up a gym in New York City on Sunday to get his pump on ... just in case that phone rings from an NFL team.
Kap was sporting Nike head to toe -- the company has not only stuck by Colin, but has featured him in ad campaigns over the years.
Our Kap sources tell us Colin's been hitting the gym DAILY and working out with a QB coach regularly ever since he last stepped foot on an NFL field back in 2016.
Now, with Andrew Luck announcing his retirement on Saturday ... and other teams trying to figure out their quarterback situations, seems the timing could finally be right for a Colin Kaepernick comeback.
In fact, Colin's pal, Eric Reid, recently said he'd like to see Kap get a shot with the Carolina Panthers if (and only IF) Cam Newton is too injured to play after suffering a foot injury during a preseason game.
Reid stressed that he supports Cam and is rooting for Cam -- but says Kap would be an excellent Plan B.
Kaepernick has made it clear to friends and fans that he wants to keep playing football -- and recently debuted a counter on his social media pages showing the days he's been out of work.
Kap's only 31-years-old with Super Bowl experience ... just sayin'.

New James Bond Movie Aston Martin Goes Through Car Hell During Italian Chase Scene
James Bond is back to handling his classic ride in classic 007 fashion -- which means somewhere an Aston Martin is getting driven fast and hard.
The next Bond flick -- "No Time to Die" -- is shooting right now in Matera, Italy, and on Sunday they tackled an intense car chase scene on the windy, narrow streets of Piazza San Pietro Caveoso.
What's rough about these stunts is how much rubber-to-the-road abuse this Aston Martin DB5 takes on set. Sure, it'll make for some great action sequences -- but the value of this gorgeous ride will be dwindled down to practically nothing after what it goes through here.
It's kinda funny ... the stuntman on set sorta looked like Daniel Craig at certain angles, but we HIGHLY doubt DC was behind the wheel for the kinda power steering you're seeing here. Unless he's gone full Tom Cruise, of course. Sometimes a guy's just gotta take the reins, but considering Daniel's already suffered an on-set injury ... pretty sure he tapped out for this stunt.
Aston Martin wasn't so lucky. If this car could speak, it would've bowed out of this scene, for sure!
Typical Bond -- ruining great cars since the '60s ... all for the sake of saving the world.

Shawn & Camila We. Can't. Stop. Kissing!!! Major Amore at NYC Cafe
The only thing on the menu when Camila Cabello does dinner with Shawn Mendes is ... Shawn Mendes -- and she enjoyed seconds, thirds and fourths on a NYC sidewalk.
The pop couple took the most visible table possible at Extra Virgin Sunday night in the West Village, and proceeded to make out almost non-stop through their meal. Honestly, there are plates and glasses on the table, but doesn't seem like Shawn or Camila touched 'em -- too busy kissing.
On the lips, on the cheek, on the neck ... they couldn't get enough of each other. It's almost like they're reliving their high school years -- y'know from like 5 years ago.
A lot of people blew them off initially as a publicity stunt -- they started dating back in June, right around the time they dropped their hit song, "Senorita."
We'll say this ... IF it started as just good PR, it's looking like more than an act at this point.
For what it's worth -- "Senorita" is #2 on the charts.

Go Topless Pride Parade NYC Folks Stand Abreast For the Right to Bare Nips
A group of 100 or so people marched down the streets in NYC with their tops popped off and their boobs hanging out freely ... all in the name of equality.
The 2019 Go Topless Pride Parade went down Sunday, with several women going completely bare-chested to advocate for the right to be topless in public -- just like men -- without fear of being arrested or shamed.
Along with the topless gals, several fellas joined the cause by either wearing ridiculous bras or simply going topless themselves ... and there was live music too!
The parade came on the eve of Women's Equality Day in the U.S., which is celebrated Monday in honor of the passing of the 19th amendment giving women the right to vote.
The parade participants believe women have the same constitutional right as men to go topless in public, and there's nothing disorderly about the conduct of baring your breasts.
So far, 35 states in the U.S. have gone topless, but clearly ... there's more half-naked work to be done.

Nick Turturro went NUCLEAR on Dodgers star Joc Pederson over the weekend -- with the actor claiming Joc FLIPPED HIM OFF during the game ... and now they're enemies for life!!!
FYI, the "NYPD Blue" star is a HARDCORE Yankees fan -- and was sitting front row at Dodgers Stadium on Sunday to watch his Bombers take on the Blue Crew at Dodgers Stadium.
Nick was going crazy during the game -- celebrating and cheering so hard, he was featured several times during the broadcast on FS1.
But, after Joc's first at-bat (a solo home run), Turturro claims Pederson looked right at him and shot him the bird ... for essentially no reason!!!
"Can you believe this?! I'm sitting here in the front row, Joc Pederson just flipped me off for nothing! I was just looking at him," Nick said.
"I guess 'cause I got a Yankee jersey??? It's alright, Joc. Now, you're on my s**t list!!! Now, I'm in your head!"
Nick's rant continued ... "I'M OFFICIALLY IN YOUR HEAD!!! I can't wait 'til you come up again!!!"
Yep, the Turturro curse was in full affect ... and it worked!!! Joc didn't get another hit the rest of the game and the Yankees ended up winning 5-1, taking the series 2 games to 1.
This beef is far from over ... with the Dodgers and Yankees killing it right now, it's VERY possible they could meet up again in the World Series, which would be AMAZING!!!
A ton of stars were in the building for Sunday's game -- from Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union to Ray Romano and Pat Sajak ... it was the hottest ticket in town!!!

'Bachelorette' Star Robby Hayes Puts Sex Tape Drama Aside ... Makes Out with Scheana Shay
Robby Hayes found the best way to forget about his alleged sex tape with Lindsie Chrisley -- find another hot ex to hook up with.
The former 'Bachelorette' and "Bachelor in Paradise" star got very handsy and kissy with "Vanderpump Rules" star Scheana Shay on Sunday outside a pool party at the Encore Beach Club in Las Vegas.
The 2 were all over each other and didn't care who noticed ... Scheana even had her name clipped in her hair for easy identification.
Of course, this is nothing new for the reality TV stars. They were spotted holding hands and frolicking in Hawaii last summer ... despite claiming they were just good friends. Looks like their getting very friendly again.
Robby's fun with Scheana comes while he's in the midst of a nasty sex tape situation with Chrisley. We broke the story ... he submitted evidence to federal prosecutors related to Lindsie's extortion claim against her estranged father, Todd, and brother Chase.
As we first reported ... Lindsie filed a police report earlier this month dropping the bombshell allegations.
Good for Robby for not letting it get him down.

A$AP Rocky has returned to the Big Apple, and his happy-go-lucky vibes are palpable ... this after his turbulent experience in Sweden.
We got the Harlem-based MC Sunday night going in and coming out of The Bowery Hotel in NoHo, Manhattan, where our camera guy asked how he was feeling being stateside again after being held in Swedish custody for about a month. "Happy AF" is an understatement.
Rocky was even more ecstatic as he was leaving, telling us what his takeaway is after going through what he did -- an arrest, a long holding period, a trial, and an eventual guilty verdict (but no further jail time), just to recap. Watch ... life's simple when you're free.
As we've reported ... A$AP's been on the West Coast quite a bit since touching back down in America -- going to Kanye's Sunday Service, and even headlining a show in Anaheim.
Based on how he's been acting since he's been back ... you can tell the dude's got a new outlook on life. As he says here, he's no troublemaker ... just a "pretty motherf***er."
Welcome home, bud.

The 11-year-old violinist for who Simon Cowell hit the golden buzzer on "America's Got Talent" is onto the semi-finals, and his next performance could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars ... TMZ has learned.
Tyler Butler-Figueroa is not only Simon's pick to win it all this season, but the young leukemia survivor has impressed the judges and become a fan fave with his visionary violin work and energy ... and he's on the cusp of landing a huge recording deal.
According to Tyler's semi-finalist contract -- obtained by TMZ -- if he wins 'AGT,' he'll score a $100,000 advance on his first album, with the possibility of making another $100k in bonuses based on sales. Plus, he'll get royalties on the music.
If he DOESN'T win ... he only gets a $25k advance. The good news -- win or lose, it's all about sales. If people are buying Tyler's album, he can still make up to $100k in bonuses.
And, there's this -- according to the contract, if Tyler goes on to make a second, third, fourth or fifth album with his label, his earning potential's the same regardless of how he finishes on 'AGT' ... up to a $275k advance if he gets to album #5.
Seems like he's already a big winner.
Tyler advanced to the semis earlier this week after nailing "Don't You Worry Child" by Swedish House Mafia. This, of course, after he wowed Simon with his talent -- and his story -- in the auditions round.
Good luck, kid!!!

30-year-old Gronk famously hung up his spikes this past spring ... but there haven't been many people who have believed he's truly done with football.
Wiggins -- who's still plugged in with the Patriots -- says count him on the side that thinks Gronk's going to make a comeback ... telling us, "I would bet money -- at this point in time, I'm, like, 97% sure he's going to come back."
And, why? Jermaine thinks Rob is just going to miss playing too much to not eventually come walking back into Bill Belichick's locker room later this year.
"He loves the limelight," Wiggins says ... "And, what better way to keep continue to build the Gronk brand by being out on the field?"
As for how successful Gronk will be after such a long layoff from football, Wiggins says he thinks the future Hall of Famer will have no trouble getting back into form.
In fact, Wiggins tells us he thinks the time off will actually HELP Gronk!!
"He's still got plenty of gas left in the tank," Jermaine says ... "He'll be back. I'm telling you. Watch."
