The guy behind the Vegas massacre bought some of his weapons at a gun store right near his Nevada home ... a place that touts itself as the best spot in town to buy firearms ... and guitars.

Stephen Paddock loaded up at the Guns & Guitars store in Mesquite, NV -- where you can buy a semi-automatic rifle on a Monday ... and come back for a guitar session every other Tuesday.

Seriously ... the place is currently running a student guitar special, $99 for a guitar with a strap and 4 picks ... while offering a free box of ammo with the purchase of a handgun.

Want to combine the best of guns and guitars? They also sell an M-16 Machine Gun Guitar for $225.

So far, no word on which guns Paddock bought from G&G -- but store officials confirmed he was a customer ... on the gun side of the store.

The store issued a statement saying, "All necessary background checks and procedures were followed" when Paddock bought guns from them.

"He never gave any indication or reason to believe he was unstable or unfit at any time."

Montia Sabbag spent 2 hours with law enforcement Monday and she fielded a slew of questions about who may have secretly recorded her sexual liaison with Kevin Hart and then tried extorting him.

We were at Lisa Bloom's law office Monday morning when 2 investigators from the L.A. County District Attorney's office showed up to interview Sabbag.

Bloom says the investigators did not treat Sabbag as a suspect in the 2-hour meeting. We're told they all went over the events of the August 19 weekend in great detail.

We're told Sabbag offered her theory on who may have secretly recorded her and Kevin in his hotel room, but it's just a theory.

Team USA soccer star Alex Morgan was told by police to leave Disney World in Florida on Sunday after an incident at a bar in Epcot Center, TMZ Sports has learned.

Morgan was part of a group that included several MLS stars including Giles Barnes and Donny Toia, who were also 86'd from the park.

We're working on details from the cops -- but witnesses tell us the group had been partying at a pub in the U.K. section of Epcot Center when things got rowdy inside.

Our witnesses say Morgan and her group were arguing with another group -- and ultimately the Orange County Sheriff's Dept. got involved and told everyone to leave.

In total, 4 people were booted -- including Donny's wife, Courtney.

The OCSD tells TMZ Sports, "These are the individuals that were trespassed from Disney on Oct. 1st."

The group had posted a photo outside a Disney World restaurant earlier that day.

Jason Aldean -- who was performing at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Vegas when shots first rang out -- is now voicing his despair, pleading with Americans to act civilly.

Aldean says he's gone through a variety of emotions since the Sunday night massacre -- fear, anger, heartache and compassion. He says, "The world is becoming the kind of place I am afraid to raise my children in."

And then he says, "We aren't Democrats or Republicans, Whites or Blacks, Men or Women. We are all humans and we are all Americans and it's time to start acting like it and stand together as ONE!"

He ends with an elusive wish ... "Time to come together and stop the hate!"

With reports that Bradley Cooper has been offered to play the role of Vince McMahon in an upcoming biopic, we asked John Cena the most important question about the movie ...

Is Bradley too cute to play Vince?

Some background ... there are a ton of unconfirmed reports that WWE Studios is moving forward with what's essentially being described as an origin movie about Vince. It's reportedly called "Pandemonium."

Some of the early criticism of the flick is that it's a SUPER sensationalized version of the real story of McMahon -- and with Cooper's name floating around, seems like the rumors could be true.

But Cena doesn't think so -- telling TMZ Sports the former Sexiest Man Alive has the right amount of cuteness to play the most powerful man in pro wrestling.

Can't argue with those dimples.

Coldplay paid tribute to Tom Petty during their Monday concert in Portland, Oregon as the rock legend was taking his final breaths.

Chris Martin and co. covered Petty's epic "Free Fallin'" with R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck at the Moda Center. They also opened the gig with a moment of silence for the Las Vegas mass shooting victims.

The group does a good job, although Martin can't match Petty's high notes.

TMZ broke the story ... Tom suffered a fatal cardiac arrest Sunday night and died later in the hospital. He was 66.

Al Pacino, Jack Nicholson and a bunch of other huge celebs were all under one roof to honor the late Harry Dean Stanton.

The flock of stars hit up No Name in L.A. Monday night to pay tribute. Warren Beatty, Elliot Mintz, John Savage, Henry Buck and Anjelica Huston were all there too.

Check it out ... Mintz gave his take on what made Harry so great while Pacino and Anjelica shared some thoughts on the horrific Vegas tragedy.

Tom Petty's tragic death has left Hollywood shocked, saddened but also thankful for his tunes and influence ... and plenty of stars are honoring the rock and roll legend, including fellow legend Paul McCartney.

Musicians and other celebs alike flocked to social media Monday to pay tribute and offer words of condolences after TMZ broke the story that Tom had gone into full cardiac arrest and was taken off life support.

As you might imagine, many fellow rockers spoke on his passing ... including John Mayer and Peter Frampton.

We lost another Goodfella -- Chuck Low, who famously played Morrie Kessler died at the age of 89.

Low was a close friend of Robert De Niro -- he was actually his landlord when he first got into acting ... eventually co-starring with him in "Goodfellas."

He reportedly died at a nursing home in New Jersey on Sept. 18 and, having served 30 years in the service ... got full military honors.

Low's most memorable role came as Morrie of Morrie's Wigs fame. His pal De Niro actually got to whack him. He went on to land roles in "The Sopranos," "Scent of a Woman" and "The Mission."

You'll recall Frank Vincent, who also starred in "Goodfellas" and 'Sopranos,' died the week before Low.

America's terrorist organization isn't a four-letter word, it's only three ... as in the NRA, according to Public Enemy's Chuck D.

Chuck's outrage was obvious when we asked how he was feeling about the mass shooting in Las Vegas -- and he's laying blame squarely at President Trump's feet. As far as he's concerned, the administration's blindly backing the NRA ... even in the wake of atrocities.

Still, PE's frontman sounded hopeful things will eventually change ... but says it's on the next generation to make it happen.

Chris Williams apparently has a forgetful mind ... because that's allegedly why the R&B singer ended up in handcuffs for stealing.

Sources tell us the incident went down Saturday at a Kohl's in McDonough, Georgia where Chris walked in with a tote bag and wearing a baseball cap. We're told he went to the back of the store and grabbed a pair of JBL headphones ... priced at $99.99.

We're told he threw the headphones into his bag and tried walking out. When security stopped him, we're told Chris said he simply forgot he bagged them.

By then, cops were called and arrested him. The "I'm Dreamin'" singer was arrested and booked for petty theft, a misdemeanor. He was released after a couple hours.

We've reached out to Chris for comment, so far no word back.

What's Gucci? Oh, just rampant sexual harassment at one of its high-end stores ... so claims an ex-employee in a new lawsuit.

Chanel Falasco is suing the giant luxury brand claiming her manager at the downtown Chicago store followed her into a storage room and pulled out his penis. According to the suit, he also bombarded her with crude comments about her ass and gave her the nickname ... "booty."

In docs, obtained by TMZ, Falasco says the manager tried kissing her and grabbed her by the neck, torso and ass. She claims in 2015 she was mortified when he pulled down his pants in the storage room ... and told her to perform oral sex on him, or "at least just touch it."

Falasco says she complained to a higher-up, but Gucci didn't do nearly enough to address the situation ... especially because it knew the manager had behaved inappropriately with other employees before.

Daniel Franzese is best known for playing Cady's classmate Damian -- alongside his on-screen BFF Janis played by Lizzy Caplan -- in the 2004 Lindsay Lohan comedy, "Mean Girls." Guess what he looks like now!

O.J. Simpson could be eating home cooked meals again -- if his daughter's grocery store run in Vegas is any indication.

O.J.'s oldest daughter, Arnelle Simpson, was coming out of a Trader Joe's Monday with a cart full of goodies, and photogs asked if she was whipping up dinner for dad.

It's unclear if he's staying with her, but it would make sense for them to break bread. Simpson told the Nevada Parole officials he planned to stay in the area for now.

Mike Tyson, Kid Rock, The Chainsmokers ... just some of the big names digging into their pockets to help the victims of the horrific Las Vegas shooting.

After the Oakland Raiders donated $50,000 to the Las Vegas Victims' Fund -- a GoFundMe page set up by Clark County Commission Chair Steve Sisolak -- several huge stars kicked in with $10,000 donations including Florida Georgia Line.

Shelley Adelson, daughter of casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, also kicked in $10k.

We've also confirmed L.A. Rams pro bowl tackle Andrew Whitworth ponied up $25,000 to the fund.

Hoda Kotb has also added $1,000.

According to the GoFundMe page, the money raised "will be used to provide relief and financial support to the victims and families of the horrific Las Vegas mass shooting​."
