Justin Timberlake Let's Talk Super Bowl Halftime!
2/1/18
Justin Timberlake faced the media in Minnesota -- and talked all about his Super Bowl halftime performance on Sunday ... and (shocker) he charmed the hell out of everyone in the room.
JT said Tom Brady is on his "man crush" list and has shut down the possibility of an 'NSYNC reunion.
As we previously reported, Joey Fatone told us he wasn't going to Minnesota to perform in the show.
Timberlake says the focus is on his new band. We'll see if he's telling the truth ...
Miss America Cara Mund was also in the house ... and she asked a question while rockin' her tiara.
JT also said his goal is to get Al Michaels to "shake his booty" -- and teased that he'll be performing 'Can't Stop the Feeling.'

Phoenix Open Streaker Naked Breakdance Moves?! ... Hilarious Video
The streaker who busted onto the green at the Phoenix Open on Wednesday didn't just run around -- he TRIED really hard to pull off some naked breakdance moves ... and TMZ Sports has the footage.
The wannabe dancer is Adam Stalmach -- a 24-year-old idiot who somehow snuck onto the 17th fairway during the Pro-Am in front of hundreds of people ... and put on a naked show before cops rushed in and arrested him.
Shocker ... cops say he was probably wasted.
He's been charged with indecent exposure and two counts of disorderly conduct.
Also, he kept his socks on the entire time ... so technically, not a full streaker???
Good luck with the hangover, bro ...

Kate Upton I Can't Wait to Tell My Full Story ... Of Sexual Misconduct by Paul Marciano
Kate Upton is itching to tell everyone about what she claims was sexual abuse at the hands of Guess co-founder Paul Marciano.
Our photog got Kate Wednesday arriving at LAX, and she made it clear she's going to offer more than a Twitter headline when the time is right. Upton wrote on Instagram Tuesday, Marciano should not be allowed to use his power to sexually harass women, though she was not specific.
The S.I. cover model wouldn't say if she was a victim or if she was speaking out on behalf of other models, but it seems like she has a personal story.
Kate also believes people at Guess were complicit in protecting and enabling Marciano.
So far Marciano has not responded.

Jay-Z I Want the Roc Sign to be Mine ... At Long Last!!!
Jay-Z is officially trying to lock down the Roc-A-Fella diamond hand sign for himself ... TMZ has learned.
The hip-hop mogul just filed legal docs to obtain exclusive rights to the iconic symbol -- which Jay's been flashing for years.
He applied for a trademark to use the diamond hand sign in a variety of entertainment services in either music, video, TV or film.
Interestingly, Jay was sued over the symbol in 2005 by Diamond Dallas Page -- but the case was settled out of court, and it doesn't look like DDP ever trademarked it for himself.
As far as hip-hop fans are concerned, Jay's always owned the Roc symbol -- this would just make it official.
"Throw your diamonds up 'cause we in this bitch another 'gain!"

Quavo to Amazon Skrt on Down to the ATL ... You'll Get a Migos Song!
Quavo's got a message for Jeff Bezos and the rest of Amazon's bigwigs deciding where to put their second headquarters -- come to Atlanta and get cultured!
We got the Migos rapper Thursday at Phipps Plaza in the ATL, and he gave one helluva pitch ... offering to deliver something special if Amazon drops its HQ2 in his hometown.
He also pretty much made Offset's fiancee, Cardi B, an official member of the Migos gang -- and addressed who will be Offset's best man at the wedding. Peep Q's freestyle.
Btw, we shot this video several hours before we broke the story Quavo was allegedly involved in a Grammy night brawl and robbery in NYC. So, he might be talking to NYPD before Bezos.

Hannibal Buress Drunken Arrest Dismissed ... First Amendment, Baby!!!
Hannibal Buress is off the hook for his drunken arrest in Miami, courtesy of the First Amendment ... TMZ has learned.
During a hearing Thursday morning, prosecutors announced they were dismissing the case. You'll recall ... Hannibal had drunkenly asked a police officer to call him an Uber. When the officer refused, Hannibal got belligerent, and after arguing with cops ... they arrested him for disorderly intoxication.
The comedian's attorney, Brian Bieber (no relation), tells us Hannibal's exchange with the officer was fully protected by the First Amendment.
As Bieber put it, "It's not a crime. We're pleased the prosecutors reviewed the fact and dismissed the case."

J Lo Rubbing Elbows with Paul Marciano On Heels of Abuse Allegations
Jennifer Lopez was forced into an extremely awkward position Wednesday night ... having to schmooze with Guess co-founder Paul Marciano just hours after he was accused of sexually abusing models.
J Lo, along with Alex Rodriguez, chatted up Marciano at Guess HQ in downtown L.A. -- she was the guest of honor at the launch party for her new Guess campaign. The timing couldn't have been worse.
Kate Upton had just made the allegation that Marciano has been abusing models. Wednesday's event had been planned for weeks, and our Guess sources say Kate was invited ... so she clearly knew her bombshell would land right in the middle of Marciano's big night.
Interesting that J Lo wasn't swayed by Kate's claim -- and also that Marciano still showed up and addressed his guests. We're told he made no mention of the allegations.

Kylie Jenner She May End Up on a Mountaintop!!!
The property Kylie Jenner inspected last week is perfectly suited not just for privacy, but for Howard Hughes-type privacy.
We've obtained areal pics of the Hidden Hills site where Kylie's eyeing the mega-mansion that's being built on a mountaintop. She hasn't purchased the property yet, but she's seriously thinking about it.
The house will eventually be a 15k sq. ft. palace on 7 acres of land.
TMZ broke the story, the home's construction plans call for:
-- 9,187 sq. ft. first floor
-- 5,304 sq. ft. second floor
-- 2 huge garages (1,200 sq. ft and 1,468 sq. ft)
-- 1,836 sq. ft. of covered porches
-- A cabana for the pool
Check out the property size compared to a local high school.
It's unclear if Kylie intends to purchase the property for herself or if she'll buy it and flip it ... but whoever ends up living there will have plenty of space to roam.

Jim Carrey Legal Battle with Ex-GF's Family Dismissed
Jim Carrey's long, drawn out legal war over his ex-girlfriend's death won't end in a courtroom, because the lawsuits filed by Jim and her family have been dismissed ... TMZ has learned.
As we reported ... Cathriona White's mother and estranged husband filed wrongful death suits against Carrey after she died of a drug overdose in 2015. They claimed Jim had given her STDs and her despair was part of the reason she killed herself. Carrey filed a countersuit, and accused White's family of trying to shake him down for money
Now, according to court docs filed last week in Los Angeles ... both suits have been dismissed. They've been dismissed with prejudice, meaning neither side can refile. That's commonly a sign of a financial settlement.
We've got calls in to reps and attorneys for both sides.

Joe Jonas Back Into the Swing of Things ... Ahead of Wedding
Screw cake by the ocean -- Joe Jonas is getting into shape by the pool before his big wedding ... and it looks like his workouts are in full swing.
Joe was seen getting his Russian kettlebell swing on Wednesday at the Bondi Icebergs Pool near Sydney, Australia -- where he seemed to be working up quite a sweat.
After his exercise, he hopped into the famous pool for a dip.
As we reported ... Joe asked girlfriend Sophie Turner to marry him this past October, and she said yes. However, a wedding date has yet to be announced.
Depending on how much time he's got -- probably a lot since 'GoT' ain't coming out 'til next year -- maybe he should consider the MMA grind again. Seemed to work wonders back then.

Anthony Scaramucci Tapped for T-Mobile Super Bowl Ad ...Then 86'd
Anthony Scaramucci almost had the last laugh on Donald Trump, because T-Mobile offered him a fortune to do a Super Bowl ad, but then mysteriously pulled the plug ... TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the deal tell us the behemoth mobile carrier contacted Scaramucci's reps a few weeks ago and offered in the mid-6 figures for a surprise ad during the game. We're told the premise was Scaramucci at a podium fielding questions about T-Mobile, and whenever someone had their information wrong he'd scream, "Fake news!!!"
Days after the offer was made, it was pulled with no explanation. Sources connected with the former White House Communications Director say they believe it was yanked because of Scaramucci's politics.
We reached out to T-Mobile ... but the company was radio silent.
