Iggy Azalea may have worn a tank top about raising hell, but the occasion was to celebrate a new era of drinks that are never too hot or cold ... but just right.

The pop star performed at the Hollywood launch event Wednesday night for Ember, a new line of temperature controlled mugs that keep your drink at the perfect temperature for hours.

After posing for a pic with Ember CEO Clay Alexander ... Iggy made a wardrobe change and put on a tasteful show for her fellow mug enthusiasts.

Ember's a celebrity-backed product that began as a crowdfunded campaign last year, and can now be bought online or in your neighborhood Starbucks.

Louis C.K. is being accused of sexual misconduct -- 5 women claim he either masturbated in front of them, asked to expose himself, or masturbated on the phone with them.

The women went on the record with the New York Times, saying the alleged behavior goes back at least a decade. Courteney Cox and David Arquette confirmed they were notified of one alleged incident -- an actress on a show they were producing claimed C.K. asked if he could masturbate in front of her.

Cox told the NYT, "What happened to Rebecca [Corry] on that set was awful." Corry stayed on the show, "The MidNightly News" ... C.K. was only a guest star.

C.K.'s rep declined to comment to the NYT. We've reached out, too.

C.K. canceled the Thursday night premiere of his new movie, "I Love You, Daddy." The film features a character who pretends to masturbate at length in front of other people.

Nicki Minaj's brother was just found guilty in his child rape trial ... a case that lasted nearly 3 weeks.

The verdict for Jelani Maraj came in Thursday in Long Island ... he was found guilty of predatory sexual assault against a child and endangering the welfare of a child.

He faces 25 years to life in prison. He'll be sentenced on December 14. Nassau County D.A. Madeline Singas tells TMZ ... "We hope that today's verdict will help the family in the healing process."

Mike Tyson got KO'd in Chile -- authorities there denied him entry and ordered him back to the U.S. of A.

Authorities say the former heavyweight boxing champ didn't meet the requirements for entry Thursday because of his rap sheet. The country's equivalent of the FBI posted this pic showing Tyson flanked by 2 detectives.

O.J. Simpson was booted from the Cosmopolitan Hotel in Las Vegas Wednesday night after allegedly getting wasted and then being extremely unruly.

Simpson had been frequenting bars at the hotel since his release from prison. Hotel staff tells TMZ ... at around midnight last night, Simpson was drunk and became disruptive at the Clique bar. We're told Simpson was angry at hotel staff and glasses broke at the bar.

Check out the pic below of Simpson strolling through the hotel Wednesday night.

Farrah Abraham is losing deals all over the place ... first with work, and now with her real estate.

Farrah's finally gotten rid of her Austin home, but for a third less than her original asking price.

She listed the 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath in 2014 for $750k, only a year after purchasing it. No word on the exact selling price but it was in escrow for $520k.

The 3,300 square foot home has some history ... it was featured on the "Teen Mom" catch-up special "Being Farrah," but doesn't look like it helped move the sale. The stone slab work and the built-in BBQ in the backyard probably did though.

Two actors who starred on Shonda Rhimes shows are now officially single ... TMZ has learned.

Liza Weil and Paul Adelstein's divorce has been finalized more than a year after the original filing. Liza stars on "How to Get Away with Murder" and Paul's on "Scandal."

According to divorce docs, obtained by TMZ, Liza and Paul's divorce was signed off by a judge this week after they privately came to terms in August. The details of those terms were not disclosed.

As we reported ... Liza had requested joint custody of their 5-year-old daughter, and they were planning to deal with spousal support in mediation. Weil and Adelstein split after 10 years of marriage.

That's how you get away with a scandal-free divorce.

Ed Westwick is disputing claims by a second accuser that he sexually assaulted her in July 2014.

Aurelie Wynn posted on Facebook that Westwick "pushed me face down and [I] was powerless under his weight. I was wearing a one piece bathing suit that he ripped, I was in complete shock." She adds, "I told the guy I was seeing [Mark Salling] that I got raped."

Westwick just posted, "It is disheartening and sad to me that as a result of two unverified and provably untrue social media claims, there are some in this environment who could ever conclude I have had anything to do with such vile and horrific conduct. I have absolutely not, and I am cooperating with the authorities so that they can clear my name as soon as possible."

Mel B and Stephen Belafonte have settled the domestic violence portion of their nasty divorce.

We're told the 2 have reached an agreement and Mel has withdrawn her domestic violence restraining order against Stephen.

The implication ... it opens the door for Stephen to see his 6-year-old daughter Madison.

We're also told Mel B and Stephen settled a portion of their property division.

There has been no resolution of the Lorraine Gilles matter -- she's the former nanny who claims Mel B pressured her into having 3-ways with the couple. However, we're told they're close to reaching a resolution.

Bernie Madoff's investors who were ripped off for billions of dollars are finally getting some of their money back -- the U.S. has begun the first distribution of funds to his Ponzi scheme victims.

The Madoff Victim Fund -- established by the Dept. of Justice -- will dish out $772.5 million in funds forfeited to the government to more than 24,000 victims worldwide. It's the the first in a series of payments, and eventually more than $9 billion in recovered assets will be returned to victims.

According to Manhattan U.S. Attorney Joon H. Kim ... Thursday's distribution of more than $770 million is "the single largest distribution of forfeited funds in the Department's history."

Charlie Sheen will face zero consequences for allegedly molesting a teenage Corey Haim -- because he never does ... according to his ex-fiancee, Brett Rossi.

Brett was at LAX Wednesday night when she lit up Charlie for, as she put it, "ruining a lot of lives." One of Corey's friends recently claimed 19-year-old Sheen molested 13-year-old Haim on a 1980s film set. Brett described that as a "pretty steep allegation" ... but it's clear she's not ruling it out.

Mark Cuban counseled his longtime friend Michael Cohen on how to stay calm in the wake of the Russian investigation that has Cohen under a microscope.

They had breakfast at Landmarc restaurant in NYC's Time Warner Center Thursday. Cuban tells TMZ, he was there to help "calm him down and talk him off the roof" by relaying his own experience with a federal investigation. Mark was once prosecuted by the SEC for insider trading and was found not guilty.

Cuban says Cohen, Donald Trump's longtime personal lawyer, talked about his relationship with the Prez. But Cuban says the big topic ... Cohen's writing a book about his experiences with Trump and the investigation.

Cuban says Cohen has a publisher and gave him these words of encouragement ... "The truth will set you free."

Here's a disgusting video of a lowlife jockey socking a horse in the stomach before a race in Australia, and we're warning you, it's pretty tough to watch.

It went down in Port Lincoln, Australia when jockey Dylan Caboche got aggravated with his horse, pre-race dismounted and put a right uppercut to the animal's midsection.

What's worse it that you can see the scumbag Caboche was still holding his jockey whip in his hand, making the punch actually more of a jab with the end of the piece of equipment.

Caboche received a 2-week suspension for his actions, and while his horse Reneldasgirl seemed to be okay, but it's amazing that this type of animal abuse didn't warrant a more stiff penalty.

Disgusting.

The day of questioning has arrived for Venus Williams ... the tennis star is about to sit for her deposition in the lawsuit stemming from that fatal car crash back in June.

As we previously reported, the family of Jerome Barson sued Venus -- claiming she's to blame for blocking an intersection and causing Jerome's car to T-bone her in a crash that killed Jerome.

So, what happens today? Barson's lawyers will undoubtedly grill Venus about her driving decisions on that fateful day and try to paint her as negligent.

Venus will most likely fight back and continue to lay the blame on a third unidentified driver who she has claimed cut in front of her -- forcing her car to linger in the intersection.

William H. Macy's paternal concerns aren't limited to his real life kids -- he also cares deeply about Ethan Cutkosky, his TV spawn who just got busted for DUI.

We asked the "Shameless" dad about Ethan's arrest, and he immediately went to bat for the 18-year-old ... telling us he's a good kid. He also had sympathy for child actors who have to grow up in Hollywood.

He was rushing into LAX when we talked to him, but William said he plans to take some time to call Ethan, and possibly offer some fatherly advice. In other words ... the exact opposite of how Bill's Frank Gallagher character would react on the hit Showtime series.

Thank God.

Kevin Spacey's fall from grace is getting worse -- the actor's been dropped from an already finished Ridley Scott film after the director decided to remove him in the wake of more sexual abuse allegations.

It's pretty crazy -- Scott's movie, "All the Money in the World," is scheduled for a December 22 release, and the director is reportedly determined to keep that date despite the need for major reshoots with Spacey's replacement -- legendary actor Christopher Plummer.

According to Deadline ... the reshoots of key scenes are expected to begin immediately and the film's leads -- Mark Wahlberg and Michelle Williams -- are fully on board with the move.

Spacey was billed as one of the movie's main stars and is an important piece of the plot. He reportedly worked on it for 8 to 10 days ... so it seems like Plummer and the rest of the crew have a lot of work to do to make this happen.

As we reported ... more accusations of sexual assault came out Wednesday, with a former TV news anchor claiming Spacey grabbed her son's genitals in 2016.
