Burt Reynolds fans and car enthusiasts alike paid their respects to the late '"Smokey and the Bandit" star ... by rolling up in the classic ride he made famous.

Thousands of people attended Long Island's Motor Mania car show Saturday at Eisenhower Park, which featured a ceremonial parade of 100 Pontiac Firebird Trans Ams to honor Reynolds and his iconic 1977 film. It's called the "100-Trans Am Salute."

Several of the drivers also paid homage to Burt by going all out and dressing like the Bandit ... and rocking a stache. It's probably time to retire the Rebel flag license plates though.

The memorial was organized by the car show's host, Butch Yamali.

As we reported ... Burt's personal car collection hit the auction block at the Mandalay Bay Saturday, including a 1978 recreation of the iconic Pontiac in "Smokey and the Bandit."

Sarah Palin's oldest son has been arrested on new domestic violence charges in Alaska.

Track Palin was busted Friday night after Alaska State Troopers responded to a report of a disturbance at his home in Wasilla. Cops say their investigation revealed he assaulted a female acquaintance at the residence, then took her phone away when she tried to call authorities.

Track allegedly resisted the troopers while being placed under arrest as well.

The 29-year-old was arrested on charges of fourth-degree domestic violence assault, interfering with a report of domestic violence, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.

He's being held without bail at the Mat-Su Pretrial Facility.

This isn't a first for Track either. He was arrested last December for allegedly breaking into his parent's house and beating up his father -- Sarah had to call the cops on him. That case is currently being heard in Alaska's Veterans Court.

Omarosa believes all the crying and shouting Brett Kavanaugh did during this week's Senate hearing proves he's got 2 sides, but as long as everyone's focused on him ... it's a win for the Prez.

We got Omarosa at the Reagan National Airport in D.C. Saturday and asked about her tweet, which questioned how President Trump would react to his Supreme Court nominee crying during his testimony.

She says Kavanaugh's display showed an angry, aggressive side ... and even POTUS can't dispute that. Brett's fondness for drinking beer might be another strike against him with 45 too.

Then again, O says Kavanaugh's Supreme Court drama is exactly what Trump wants right now ... because it keeps everyone from focusing on the Russia investigation.

As we reported ... the Senate Judiciary Committee voted yes to recommend Kavanaugh be confirmed to the Supreme Court Friday, but there will also be an FBI investigation into the sexual assault allegations made against him by Dr. Christine Ford.

L.A. Rams wide receiver Robert Woods might be close to getting his stuff back ... cops have made an arrest in his burglary case.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... Woods' San Fernando Valley pad was broken into Thursday while he was gone -- because he was busy destroying the Minnesota Vikings defense on "Thursday Night Football."

Law enforcement sources tell us ... cops investigating the burglary pulled over a suspect they believed was connected to it Friday, and found items belonging to the Rams WR in his car.

We're told the alleged burglar had other stolen items in his vehicle as well ... so he's being investigated for multiple burglaries in the area.

As we first reported ... cops believe Woods' burglary -- as well as the burglaries at Dodgers slugger Yasiel Puig's house -- are far from random. Police think they're being targeted by crooks because they're pro athletes ... so it's easy to know when they won't be home because they're at their games.

Hopefully, Puig will get some of Woods' good fortune soon ... especially since he's been burglarized FOUR times.

Lindsay Lohan wins the most bizarre video of the month ... as she accuses parents of trafficking her children and then gets punched in the face.

Lindsay, who was in Moscow, gets out of her car and approaches the family -- 2 boys and their parents. She says they're Syrian refugees who need help.

Then it turns ... LiLo accuses them of trafficking their kids, as she speaks in both English and Arabic. At one point she says, "You're ruining Arabic culture."

After tailing the family for a bit and trying to take the children, you see the mother snap and attack Lindsay, socking her in the face.

Cops have made an arrest in the shooting death of 20-year-old LSU basketball player Wayde Sims.

According to the Baton Rouge Police Department ... Dyteon Simpson was taken into custody Saturday morning after admitting to shooting Sims. He's been charged with 2nd degree murder.

Police Chief Murphy Paul told reporters at a press conference Sims suffered a gunshot wound to the head after intervening in an altercation between his friend and Simpson.

Simpson left his glasses at the scene, which were recovered by cops and used to test DNA ... which found a match with Simpson.

Chief Paul says ... "Simpson was questioned and admitted to being in possession of a weapon, admitting to being on the scene and admitted to shooting Wayde as well." The investigation is ongoing.

As we reported ... Wayde was killed outside a Subway restaurant near Southern University's campus early Friday morning, about a 15-minute drive from LSU's main campus.

The FBI is now involved in investigating possible police corruption in connection with Stormy Daniel's arrest at a Columbus, Ohio strip club.

As we reported, Stormy was arrested in July while she was performing at Sirens strip club after several patrons made physical contact with her. It appeared the vice cops were lying in wait for Stormy.

Fact is ... there was no basis to arrest Stormy because the law under which she was arrested did NOT apply to her since she was not a regular performer at the club. The police chief apologized and launched an internal affairs investigation.

What we're told ... some of the officers were pro-Trump and it looked like a personal vendetta.

Well, now the FBI's Public Corruption Task Force has been called in at the request of the police chief.

The task force includes the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.

Miles Teller is seriously jacked as he takes on the role of Goose's son in "Top Gun: Maverick," which leads us to believe there will be a reprieve of the famous volleyball scene.

Miles was leaving a gym Friday in Los Angeles, rocking a porn stache -- clearly in honor of long-departed Goose.

Also, he showed his canine-loving side by carrying a bag from Healthy Spot -- a pet store that also does dog grooming and doggy daycare.

And, check out the back of his sweet, vintage blue Ford Bronco.

Kanye West stopped dead in his tracks early Saturday morning as he listened to a homeless man rap ... and Ye was impressed enough to take the guy into the studio.

Nino Blu is in desperate straits. He became homeless recently and is clearly on the ropes, but he took his shot when he spotted Kanye and swung for the fences.

Ye was clearly impressed, and invited Blu to drop some bars into a mic.

Nino was beyond stoked, calling it a "crazy ass miracle."

Tekashi69's Brooklyn home was swarmed and raided by federal agents Friday ... a search we're told turned up a gun.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Tekashi was not home during the time of the raid. It's currently unknown what prompted the search, or who the gun discovered in the home belonged to.

A source close to Tekashi tells us the rapper was already in the process of moving out of the Brooklyn home that was raided. We're told 6ix9ine had not been in the house for several weeks, and many people -- including movers and cleaners -- have been inside the property lately.

Tekashi hasn't been in NY much over the last several weeks. You'll remember ... he was in Colombia with Kanye West, and had a show in Russia where a fan got stomped out by his crew.

You can see from the pics, multiple agents showed up at the home for the search. We're told NYPD also assisted.

We reached out to a rep for Tekashi ... so far, no word back.

Kim Kardashian & Kanye West hit the town in NYC on the eve of Kanye's 'SNL' performance.

Kim and Kanye were leaving the Electric Lady Studios Friday night, where Ye has been recording music. His new album drops Saturday, and he's already conceded he'll be #2, behind "Tha Carter V."

Kanye Tweeted Thursday, "we're releasing Yandhi Saturday Night, We know it will come in number 2 to my brother Lil Wayne and that's lovely, the universe needs Ye and Wayne music at the same time."

Kim took Saint for a late night stroll while she rocked the hottest of hot pink. North is being carried behind. We don't know if the woman holding the kid is a friend or a nanny.

XXXTentacion had no idea his vocals would be used on one of the most powerful tracks of Lil Wayne's "Tha Carter V" when he was shot and killed outside a Florida motorcycle shop.

Wayne dropped 'TC5' Friday, and the second track "Don't Cry" features a powerful hook from X. However, we're told the vocals weren't originally recorded for the album.

X met with Z3n -- a 22-year-old producer from Florida -- back in February to record a few tracks. Z3n tells us the two hit it off and recorded some material, but the hook that was eventually used by Wayne stuck the most.

Z says he and X never finished the track, but Z kept what they did.

Fast forward to August -- two months after X's murder -- to a meeting with Z3n and music producer in Miami. Z tells us he randomly found the X track while showing him music and he loved it ... then passed it on to Lil Wayne and a Republic Records exec.

From there, it was passed off to Ben Billions for additional production touch ups. after that was completed it ended up in Wayne's hand and X's hook was added.

Z tells us he didn't hear anything more about the track until just a week before the release of 'TC5' when Wayne's people let him know X's vocals would be on the album.

Don't let these two almost identical images of Bella Hadid stop you in your tracks ... keep up the pace and see if you can figure out the differences between these two similar shots!

Amanda Seyfried was both pessimistic and surprised about the Kavanaugh hearings ... on the one hand, saying "We're f**ked" and on the other seeing a ray of hope.

We got Amanda Friday after she landed at LAX, and had thrown in the towel and conceded Kavanaugh would be confirmed because she believes people just don't care. She was floored when our photog informed her the Senate asked the FBI for a 1-week investigation.

Will.i.am is getting blasted for appearing so bored, he was checking his iPhone during a Black Eyed Peas concert.

Will and Co. were performing at the Melbourne Cricket Ground Saturday in Australia -- the main pre-game entertainment at the Australian Football League Grand Final.

Check out the video, as Will checks his phone at least twice as the group sings its hit, "Let's Get it Started."

He later had an explanation ... "Sharing on socials isn't checking phone mid-song ... that's me being a performer & cameraman showing the world how Awesome Australia is."

Nate Diaz is straight trippin' if he thinks UFC will create a 165-pound division for him and Dustin Poirier -- and Dana White tells TMZ Sports it AIN'T HAPPENING!!

Nate's been confusing the hell out of people on social media -- falsely claiming Dana created the weight class for his upcoming fight at UFC 230.

Diaz also suggested he'd bail on the fight if Dana didn't comply with his demand.

We spoke with White who says Nate's been acting "nutty as hell" -- and he expects Diaz to show up and fight at 155 pounds on Nov. 3 ... just as he agreed to do.

Dana says Diaz signed the contract -- "You can't sign a deal and then do the things that he's doing right now, and not fight."
