Nate Burleson knows a thing or two about making the jump from the gridiron to the screen ... and he tells TMZ Sports he's got eyes on three players that he believes would be great TV -- including Joe Burrow!!

We caught up with the CBS analyst and host of "Hollywood Squares" in NOLA over Super Bowl weekend ... when we asked which current jocks he thinks could make the same transition he did in retirement.

NOLA legend Cam Jordan made the list ... with Burleson saying he is an "amazing talent." Alongside Burrow, he even mentioned his former LSU teammate and current Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson.

Brooks Nader's newest photoshoot is probably more appropriate for Playboy than Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue ... 'cause she ditched the bikini for an au naturale look on vacay.

The model ran off to Los Cabos, Mexico for a little Valentine's vacation ... and, she decided to really let loose -- throwing off her top and letting it all hang out.

Check out the pics ... Brooks starts with a bright orange top on while her topless gal pal photographs her -- but, she quickly decides to get as naked as her proverbial dancing partner and frees the nipple for the whole beach to see.

Natalia Bryant's not a little kid anymore ... she's a woman who might have a new beau -- 'cause she was spotted with a guy on Valentine's Day.

The daughter of Kobe Bryant -- who turned 22 just last month -- hit the Los Angeles streets for a fun Friday night with a good-looking dude ... leaving e. baldi --a popular Italian joint in Beverly Hills not to be confused with Rihanna's favorite eatery, Giorgio Baldi.

The two were photographed outside the restaurant ... talking and laughing -- with some light PDA happening too. Natalia's got her hand on her maybe friend, maybe something more's chest in at least one pic.

Kanye West's taking a break from his usual online tirades to celebrate a fellow rapper ... 'cause the self-proclaimed "Nazi" just shouted out Drake's new song.

The rapper took to X Saturday to laud praise on Drizzy ... specifically his new "Gimme A Hug" track -- the song where Drake touched on his rap feud with mortal hip hop enemy Kendrick Lamar.

Ye wrote, "Gimme a hug is incredible. Sheeeeeeesh" -- not exactly the most descriptive review ... but, definitely a positive one from the controversial rapper.

Will Ferrell's looks over the years make him one sexy spartan!

Here is a 30-year-old version of the "Saturday Night Live" star rockin' the bowl cut and side burns for his iconic sketch turned movie "A Night At The Roxbury" back in 1998 (left).

And, nearly three decades later Mr. Ferrell was cool and casual at last month's screening of "You're Cordially Invited" in NYC (right). He may be showin' some gray, but in our eyes, he can still get it all night and all day 😜!

With show-stopping impersonations of stars like Alex Trebek, Harry Carey, George Bush  ... the only thing his rugged beauty could use is a little more cowbell!

The question here is ...

Camille Kostek is welcoming Brianna "Chickenfry" LaPaglia to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit fam with open arms ... and she tells TMZ Sports she already has an eye on which social media superstar should be next!!

We spoke with the cover model at the Sports Illustrated party during Super Bowl week in New Orleans ... a few weeks after LaPaglia appeared on the January 2025 digital cover for the publication.

Safe to say Kostek's a big fan of the move ... 'cause she only had great things to say.

Duke Gadd's mother is not happy with Corey Feldman ... 'cause the coroner hasn't ruled on her son's death yet -- so, she doesn't know how "Dr. Corey" can tell everyone he knows how Duke died.

We spoke with Carol Gadd -- Duke's mom and wife of legendary Steely Dan drummer Steve Gadd ... and, she tells us they haven't received a coroner's report yet, so her son's cause of death isn't official.

She says the family was told he had a heart attack -- and a drug was probably involved ... but, no one they talked to has said it was for sure a fentanyl overdose.

Megan Thee Stallion's a savage ... but, that doesn't mean she won't let loose and party -- and, we've got all her hottest shots for you on her milestone birthday.

The rapper turned 30 Saturday ... and, she's supplied years of some of the steamiest photos around  -- letting it all hang out in tiny cocktail dresses and even smaller bikinis.

Check out this pic of MTS wearing a tiny lingerie dress ... booty popping out of the barely-there fabric.

Wendy Williams seems happy to be out of New York City ... smiling wide while scootering through an airport in Miami -- all while her guardianship fight carries on.

The former talk show host was filmed Saturday afternoon shortly after landing at Miami International Airport ... fuzzy black boots and a matching black coat on while maneuvering through the travel hub.

The most eye-catching part of the clip has to be Wendy's face ... 'cause she's clearly overjoyed to be out and about -- a beaming on her journey to a black SUV.

Kevyn Major Howard, best known for his portrayal as Rafterman in "Full Metal Jacket," has died, his family tells TMZ.

Kevyn died Friday in a Las Vegas hospital surrounded by friends and family -- his cause of death has yet to be determined, but he'd been hospitalized for weeks with respiratory issues, his family tells us.

Kevyn was born on Jan. 27, 1956 in Montreal, Quebec ... and with his dual citizenship moved to Los Angeles after college to pursue acting.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori have both had their reps contact a divorce lawyer this week, and that usually means one thing ... and that "thing" does not involve a prenup.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the reps contacted at least one lawyer early in the week, and this was not the first time. Another source with direct knowledge tells TMZ, one of Kanye's reps contacted another lawyer back in October, when TMZ was reporting marital trouble. We're told the rep "was hot, angry." Our source says the lawyer passed on repping Ye.

If they do pull the trigger and file for divorce, it's going to be an interesting case, because sources with direct knowledge tell us, there's no prenup. What makes it even more intriguing, we're told Kanye has actually lost money since he married Bianca. In California, assets and debts are split equally, so on the surface, she could actually owe money.

Katie Thurston's sharing a major life update ... telling her fans she's been diagnosed with breast cancer -- and, she plans to share every bit of it.

The 'Bachelorette' star shared the news in an Instagram post Saturday morning ... telling fans she and her fiancé, comedian Jeff Arcuri, planned to travel the world before settling in NYC -- but, they had to cut it short so she could deal with getting medical coverage for her illness.

She says her recent life has run her through a gauntlet of emotions ... from anger, sadness to denial -- before she emerged on the other side ready to fight cancer.

Tristan Thompson's bouncing back from his recent on-court scuffle with the Toronto Raptors ... announcing he's looking to the future off the hardwood -- with a new role in a massive artificial intelligence endeavor.

The Cleveland Cavaliers star was named the Chief Content Officer and Lead Advisor for TracyAI -- a new project involving Virtuals Protocol, a leader in the A.I. space.

TracyAI -- announced in San Francisco during this weekend's NBA All-Star Game festivities -- will provide new real-time analysis for sports broadcasts ... enhancing the way fans of the sport get to see and understand the game.

Brandon Aiyuk's a speed demon on the gridiron ... but, he had to go very slow earlier this week -- 'cause a cop pulled him over in a new car thinking he may have stolen it.

Here's the deal ... Aiyuk recently purchased a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk -- an SUV valued at around $90K. He drove it straight off the truck, and he says within two miles a cop pulled him over.

Aiyuk filmed his chat with the cop ... who mentions the wide receiver was cited for driving unregistered Dodge Chargers in California -- cars the officer says are routinely a target for thieves.

Controversial TikTok Star Joshua Block just had a major breakdown in Japan ... and his erratic behavior got so bad, police had to get involved.

In video obtained by TMZ ... Joshua -- AKA “World of T-Shirts," who has a following of nearly 4 million -- can be seen screaming incoherently on the street before he repeatedly smashes his face into a wall.

What appears to be his pals grab him and try to make him stop before he really hurts himself ... as JB keeps yelling.

Britney Spears celebrated Valentine's Day with a dance video ... which usually wouldn't be anything out of the ordinary -- but this one got pretty naughty!

Brit posted the vid Friday night ... doing her dance in a practically see-through lacey black top and thong with matching black boots and a hat.

As she has done in several dance videos ... she rubbed along her toned body, making sure to highlight her assets -- but she added a little extra for V-Day when she spanked herself a few times before nearly pulling down her thong to show full-on peach!
