Chris Pratt looked like a single guy back in the dating saddle as he met up with a woman ... who happens to look a lot like his estranged wife.

The "Jurassic World" star was at an L.A. Coffee Bean Wednesday, and had a friendly embrace with the hot mystery blonde.

It's unclear if this was a romantic hookup, or purely platonic ... but, fact is, a lot of people in Hollywood are anxiously waiting for Chris to get back on the dating scene after last year's split from Anna Faris.

We know Anna's moved on with cinematographer Michael Barrett -- he's even met her parents.

Louis C.K. is out of hiding, and he's getting public support from a famous friend ... a female famous friend, mind you, in the wake of his sexual harassment scandal.

Parker Posey and Louis were out for a stroll Wednesday in NYC. Parker had a guest spot on his show, "Louie" ... and it appears she's sticking by her friend through his tough times. It's been about 4 months since Louis stepped up and apologized for sexually harassing multiple women with whom he'd worked.

The women coming forward prompted Netflix, HBO and FX to cancel all their C.K. productions, and his movie, "I Love You, Daddy," was shelved. No word on if he's attempting to get back to work.

Mariah Carey is living large ... in a 12,000 square foot mega mansion in Beverly Hills ... TMZ has learned.

Mariah just signed a long-term lease for the mansion and it don't come cheap ... $35,000 a month.

The house, which sits on one precious acre -- is pretty rad ... 9 bedrooms, a guest house, a 2-story foyer for dramatic entrances and amazing city views. It also has a spa ... seriously.

Carey moved on from the home she shared with former fiance James Packer.

The house had other famous occupants in the past ... notably, Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill.

Ain't nuthin' but a g-string baby ... and Johnny Manziel loves it!!

The QB hit the beach in Miami for a little fun in the sun with his fiancee, Bre Tiesi -- who turned heads in a tiny electric green bikini ... and it was gooood.

Manziel has been training his face off for his football comeback -- recently doing sand drills with his former Cleveland Browns teammate, Joe Haden.

Of course, Bre looks amazing ... but Johnny looks great, too -- putting back some of the muscle he had lost when he was partying his way out of the NFL.

Senator Cory Booker is stunned that Congressman Don Young tried pitching the Holocaust as a serious defense for arming teachers ... calling the pro-gun notion "outrageous."

We got the senator from New Jersey on Wednesday in D.C. and asked him what he thought of Rep. Young suggesting the Holocaust wouldn't have happened if Jews had their own guns.

Booker admits he hadn't heard the remarks or seen the video himself -- but says it doesn't take a genius to know the idea is historically inaccurate and highly offensive. Uh, ya think?

Donald Trump Jr. is "one and done" when it comes to his civic duty, and looks pretty damn happy about it.

We got Trump Jr. outside the Manhattan criminal courthouse where he reported Wednesday morning for jury duty. As we reported ... the President's son was actually selected as a potential juror in an attempted robbery case, but obviously didn't make the cut.

On his way out, he looked as thrilled as most Americans are when they get released from jury duty.

Harvey Weinstein's insurance company wants no part of his multiple sexual misconduct lawsuits ... and is marching into court to make sure it doesn't get burned.

Chubb Indemnity Insurance Company just filed docs asking a judge to declare it's not responsible for defending Weinstein in 11 lawsuits. According to docs, obtained by TMZ, the cases all relate to his "pattern of intentional, egregious sexual predatory behavior" over 30 years.

The company says its policies issued to Weinstein specifically do NOT cover sexual misconduct or harassment. Chubb says it's already informed Weinstein he's on his own in his legal battles.

According to Chubb, Weinstein's lawyers are challenging that in at least one of his lawsuits.

Desiigner is being sued by a woman who says he put her on blast, calling her a fraud after she helped his sister get into college ... TMZ has learned.

Jessica Brown is pissed about the rapper's Instagram post from last August ... where he referred to her as a "fraud," and warned his followers to stay away from her and her "college scams."

Jessica is the president of a company called College Gurl, which she says educates young people on how to pay for college -- and she says she helped Desiigner's sister, Siera Shelby, get into Howard University. In addition ... Jessica says she helped Siera get a storage unit while she was at school.

For some reason, Siera left Howard ... according to Jessica, and left belongings behind in the storage unit. Jessica claims she tried to return the stuff, but was told Siera didn't want it. Shortly thereafter, she says big bro Desiigner stepped in, and lit into her on IG, to more than 1.5 million people who follow him.

Evan Rachel Wood is pouring her heart out -- describing her struggles as a rape victim -- in order to get Congress on board with passing a bill of rights for survivors.

Evan Rachel spoke to the House Judiciary Committee, and made a very emotional speech about her life after being raped twice. While she applauded the #MeToo and Time's Up movements, she told committee members on Tuesday ... "Waves of memories and detail came flooding into my brain" when she heard victims' stories.

The actress says 7 years after her rapes, she was diagnosed with long term PTSD, and would often clutch a baseball bat when she went to bed.

She implored the U.S. Representatives to pass the sexual assault survivor's bill of rights in all states. It's currently only passed in 9 of them.

Donald Trump Jr. is facing a Manhattan judge ... he showed up for jury duty Wednesday, and there's a chance -- slim, we think -- he could be selected to serve as a juror.

President Trump's oldest reported to the New York County Criminal Court building -- and it was pretty obvious someone in the First Family was there. Secret Service is swarming around the building, and there's a huge line to enter the courthouse ... most likely due to increased security with a Trump in the house.

We called his office, and we were told he's "happy to be there."

According to the NY Post ... Junior was selected for a jury panel, along with about 80 other potential jurors, in an attempted robbery case.

Lisa Marie Presley has to ante up $100,000 to her estranged husband ... a particularly difficult task since she says she's flat broke.

The judge in her divorce case ordered the payment to Michael Lockwood within 30 days. It's unclear how she'll pay the loot, because she claims she's $16 million in the hole.

Lockwood has claimed Lisa's lying about her assets, alleging she rakes in way more money than she spends.

More money woes for The Weinstein Company -- one of its credit card companies is coming after it for a huge unpaid bill.

American Express filed legal docs Wednesday claiming TWC's corporate account has an outstanding balance of more than $1.38 million, and the money's due immediately ... plus court costs.

It's unclear where TWC spent all that dough, but as we reported ... it plans to file bankruptcy in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, because it's been hemorrhaging assets and dealing with multiple lawsuits.

Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian are making Tokyo their personal catwalk ... stuntin' all over the city in some pretty revealing fashions.

The double K krew are over in Japan, shooting for 'KUWTK,' and the sisters went on a daytime shopping spree Tuesday, before stepping out in some seriously stylish outfits at night.

Kim and Khloe channeled some Yeezy vibes during the day -- long trench coats, body-hugging short dresses, etc. -- but they switched it up when the sun went down.

One interesting wardrobe choice here -- a very pregnant Khloe, who opted for the exact opposite of traditional maternity wear.

Donald Trump's been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, the second consecutive year that's happened, but there's a problem -- his nominator might not be on the up and up.

The Prez reportedly got the nom from an anonymous American for his "ideology of peace by force" -- which sounds like an oxymoron -- but Nobel peeps were suspicious. Institute Director Olav Njolstad filed a police report because he thinks there's good reason to believe Trump's nomination is "a fake." He added, that's probably how the Prez got nominated last year, too.

Here's the issue -- the process for nominating Peace Prize candidates is highly restricted and limited to government officials, former laureates and some professors.

Njolstad's concern seems to be that Trump's nom was entered by someone without proper cred ... hence the call for cops to track down the source.

George Clooney and Scooter Braun are secretly working behind the scenes for the March for Our Lives campaign ... and TMZ knows this all because we wanted to find out how many MFOL t-shirts were sold.

One of our producers emailed members of the campaign triggered by the Marjory Stoneman Douglas shooting. She wanted to know how many sweatshirts, t-shirts and other merch items have been sold to raise money for the upcoming marches -- in particular, the march in Washington to ban assault rifles and end gun violence.

We were told over 22,000 items have been sold, but our producer wanted to know more, and she was referred to a woman who is running the fundraising campaign. Turns out ... the woman works for Scooter Braun.

After more digging, we found out Scooter is deeply involved in the fundraising efforts but was determined not to take the spotlight away from the students, so he used one of his employees for cover. As you know, Scooter organized the Manchester charity event for the victims of the Ariana Grande concert bombing.

We also found out Clooney, who donated $500k to March For Our Lives, is actively working behind the scenes to provide various forms of help. And sources at MFOL tell us Clooney is the one who started the behind-the-scenes work and recruited Braun and others.

We're assuming they've done all this on the QT because they feel it would diminish the impact of the movement if celebrities appear to be running the show -- the students are the ones changing hearts and minds and it's important it stays that way.

Clooney tells TMZ, "Amal and I fully support the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas. We've donated money to help pay for their march. But the march and all of the activities surrounding this movement belong to the young people across the country."

Alaskan Congressman Don Young says if Jewish people in Nazi Germany were armed, they could have prevented the Holocaust -- and that's his argument against gun control.

The U.S. representative was fielding questions about how to make schools safer in the wake of the Parkland, FL mass shooting when he floated his jaw-dropping theory. He was responding last week to Dimitri Shein, a democrat running for Young's seat, who recorded their heated exchange.

Young actually said, "How many Jews were put into the ovens because they were unarmed?"

Young is an NRA member who's down with arming school teachers. He's said video games and the breakdown of American families are to blame for epidemic gun violence. In video of his town hall-style meeting (around 2:10), Young added ... 50 million Russians were killed because they didn't have guns.

There was plenty of vocal support for Young's theories during the meeting.

For what it's worth, there was a Nazi law prohibiting Jews from owning guns -- but remember, they would have been battling Hitler's army, which was steamrolling entire countries.
