'My Unorthodox Life' Star Julia Haart Files for Divorce from Silvio Scaglia

Julia Haart -- the star of Netflix's "My Unorthodox Life" -- just filed for divorce from her husband of 3 years.

According to court documents, obtained by TMZ, Haart filed the paperwork in Manhattan on Wednesday to divorce her husband Silvio Scaglia. The two tied the knot in June 2019.

Rumors that the couple was separating began to circulate last December ... today's filing brings truth to it.

It’s interesting … the two have recently looked happy on social media. Julia posted 6 days ago about filming season 2 of the Netflix show ... both with smiles on their faces.

Julia and her family became world-famous by being featured in the Netflix docu-series which had just been picked up for a season 2.

Julia and Silvio share no children together but both do have children from previous marriages. Julia's 4 children -- Batsheva, Miriam, Shlomo, and Aron -- are all featured on the show.

While much hasn't been revealed for what the second season will tackle, it looks like this divorce could be taking center stage.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell We Will Re-Evaluate Hiring Rules ... In Wake Of Flores Lawsuit

020922_roger_goodell_kal FEBRUARY 2022
HOPING FOR BETTER OUTCOMES
NFL Network

Roger Goodell says the NFL will re-evaluate its hiring process rules in the wake of the Brian Flores lawsuit ... telling media members Wednesday, "We want to see Black head coaches in the NFL."

Goodell addressed the media in person for the first time since Flores alleged teams have been racist when it comes to hiring coaches -- and the commissioner made it clear the league is taking the claims seriously.

Goodell, who spoke at length with reporters in front of SoFi Stadium ahead of Super Bowl LVI, said they're going to look at everything from top to bottom to make sure the NFL has an equal hiring process.

"We want to see Black head coaches in the NFL," Goodell said. "And coaches of people of color, and eventually gender. That we think is all important."

Goodell said the league will look at the Rooney Rule -- which requires teams to interview minority candidates for vacant head coaching roles -- and will consider abolishing it if he thinks it'll help lead to more diverse hirings.

Goodell also said they'll look into adding and removing policies in an attempt to ensure teams are being all-inclusive in their searches for coaches.

"We're going to talk to other people -- have independent people come in and look and help us evaluate it -- because it's sometimes hard to evaluate your own policies and procedures," Goodell said. "And make sure that we're doing everything that we possibly can to create that opportunity for everybody to make sure that we are an inclusive league and make sure we get the outcomes that we want."

The NFL currently has just two Black head coaches -- Houston's Lovie Smith and Pittsburgh's Mike Tomlin. Former 49ers coordinator Mike McDaniel -- who is bi-racial -- was also hired by the Dolphins last week.

Flores, meanwhile, was not hired by the eight teams with vacancies after he was fired by the Miami Dolphins -- despite being considered arguably the best head coaching candidate on the market. He's now suing the league, asking the court to fix the NFL's alleged discriminatory hiring practices, in addition to damages.

Kanye West Begs for Reunion w/ Kim & Fam ... Leaves L.A. on Commercial Jet

Kanye West is still openly pining for Kim Kardashian -- and had plenty of time to think about her at the airport ... 'cause it looks like he flew commercial.

The rapper-producer just made his true feelings known once again on Instagram -- screen-grabbing photos of her and their kids featured in a new issue of Vogue she's covering ... while begging higher powers to reunite them all.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Underneath the pics, his caption reads ... "GOD PLEASE BRING OUR FAMILY BACK TOGETHER."

Yeah, no doubt about it -- the dude is still very much in love with Kim ... and wants to patch things up, despite all the evidence that that isn't going to happen -- and despite repeated attacks directed at Kim.

Interestingly enough, Kim talks about her divorce in the new issue of US Vogue, released Wednesday, where she graces the cover. Kim says, "For so long, I did what made other people happy, and I think in the last two years I decided, I'm going to make myself happy."

She continues, "And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it's important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I've chosen myself. I think it's okay to choose you."

Like we said, Ye had a lot of time on his hands last night to mull those feelings over, even prior to boarding his latest flight. The reason ... he was acting like a normie at LAX Tuesday evening, and went through TSA before boarding a commercial jet.

It's a surreal sight, especially since KW rolled up in a full-head face-covering ... one which he actually had to remove once it was his turn to step on through. Usually, celebs of his status fly private and/or deal with security checkpoints away from all the crowds ... but not this time.

Seems Ye wanted to be a man of the people on Tuesday -- and now, he clearly wants to be a family man again too.

Ironically, the Vogue issue leads with a telling quote right from the jump -- with Kim saying, "I've chosen myself." Not a great sign for what her estranged hubby wants ... think it's safe to say she's fully moved on.

Shaq Shows Off Nasty Feet Again On TV ... 'That's Not Ash, That's Dry Skin!!!'

Want to see another up-close look at Shaquille O'Neal's nasty feet?!

Neither did we, but the L.A. Lakers legend decided to show them off anyway on the "NBA on TNT" broadcast on Tuesday night -- and, yup, they're still gross as hell.

The Big Diesel gave the look at his gnarly feet during a pregame segment with Dwyane Wade, Adam Lefkoe and Candace Parker ... and EVERYBODY on the set was super grossed out.

Lefkoe noted the ash ... while Wade said the guy needed some Gold Bond STAT.

But, Shaq decided to take the grossness to a whole 'nother level ... saying, "First of all, that's not ash. That's dry skin!"

Wade and Lefkoe were so traumatized by it all ... they made a hilarious skit about their recovery.

Of course, this is far from the first time Shaq's proudly showed off his nasty tootsies ... he's put them on TV before and all over his social media.

They're pretty funny if you can get past the grotesqueness ... but, yeah, if we never saw them again, we'd certainly live.

MEGAN FOX & BRIAN AUSTIN GREEN Divorce Is Official

Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green are officially ex-husband and wife, because a judge signed off on their final divorce settlement.

The exes got the judge's stamp of approval Tuesday. We broke the story ... Brian and Megan hashed out the agreement back in October, and were just waiting for the court to make it the real deal.

Remember, the divorce settlement said they agreed to joint legal and physical custody of their 3 boys ... and while the docs didn't say much about child and spousal support, there was a reference to a settlement agreed upon outside of court.

Sources connected to the former couple told us they did not have a prenup ... and in California, that means anything they acquired during their 10-year union would be 50/50.

Megan's also having her legal name reverted back to Megan Fox from Megan Green.

Megan and Brian got hitched on a Maui beach in 2010, and she filed for divorce in 2015, but the papers were eventually withdrawn in 2019.

She filed for divorce again in November 2020, and this time they took it all the way through to the end.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

As you know, both Megan and Brian have already moved on.

Megan got engaged to Machine Gun Kelly just last month, and they allegedly celebrated by drinking each other's blood.

Brian had a few flings, but now he's dating Sharna Burgess ... and they're expecting their first child together.

Mazel tov to all 4 of 'em!

Kurt Zouma Authorities Take Soccer Star's Cats ... After He Was Seen Kicking Animals On Video

Authorities in the UK have confirmed to TMZ Sports that Kurt Zouma's cats have been taken from the soccer star after he was seen on video kicking and slapping the animals.

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals tells us the two cats were taken this week ... as it continues to investigate the footballer for animal abuse.

"The two cats are now in RSPCA care," a spokesperson for the RSPCA said in a statement. "Our priority is and has always been the wellbeing of these cats."

"They've been taken for a check-up at a vet and then will remain in our care while the investigation continues."

As we reported, 27-year-old Zouma was seen on video, obtained by The Sun, kicking a cat across the floor over the weekend. He was also seen in the footage slapping a cat.

Zouma -- a member of the French national team -- apologized for his actions following the video's release ... saying there are "no excuses" for his behavior.

He added that the cats were "perfectly fine" and said that this would never happen again.

Despite the horrifying video, Zouma's West Ham team still allowed him to play in its game Tuesday -- and reporters on the scene said he was booed nearly every time he touched the ball.

No word on when the RSPCA investigation into Zouma will wrap ... the spokesperson told us, "We continue to investigate so we cannot comment further at this time."

Joe Rogan My Advice, Don't Take My Advice!!! Jabs at Himself in Stand-Up Routine

Fall back, Neil Young ... Joe Rogan's plenty capable of ripping himself, and is openly questioning why anyone would take medical advice from the freakin' host of "Fear Factor."

Rogan was onstage Tuesday night in Austin doing stand-up, and dug into his recent podcast controversies ... saying he was disgusted seeing the compilation video of his repeated, uncensored use of the n-word.

Rogan told the crowd -- whose phones were locked to block all recordings -- "That was racist as f**k. Even to me! I’m me and I’m watching it saying, ‘Stop saying it!’ I put my cursor over the video and I’m like, ‘Four more minutes?!'”

He was even more self-deprecating when it came to the COVID-19/anti-vaxx criticisms ... saying he's completely unqualified to offer medical advice.

He's made the point before, but this was more biting -- “If you’re taking vaccine advice from me, is that really my fault? What dumb s**t were you about to do when my stupid idea sounded better? ‘You know that dude who made people eat animal dicks on TV? How does he feel about medicine?’ If you want my advice, don’t take my advice.”

FINALLY OFF MY CHEST
The Joe Rogan Experience/Spotify

While Rogan was making lemonade out of lemons last night ... earlier Tuesday he dropped a new "Joe Rogan Experience" and, once again, painted himself as a victim. In the first episode since his video apology for the n-word flak, he called the compilation vid a "political hit job" -- but added he had no issue apologizing for things he regrets.

Ex-Fitness Influencer Sued You Fed Bullcrap ... To Folks with Eating Disorders!!!

A former fitness influencer sold bogus meal plans to a ton of people dealing with eating disorders -- so says the State of Texas, anyway ... which is taking her to court.

The woman’s name is Brittany Dawn Davis, and she’s being sued by the Texas Attorney General’s Office for what they claim was an outright scam perpetrated on scores of women between the years of 2014 and 2019 ... when she’s alleged to have dished out countless meal and exercise regimens that were the opposite of personalized and safe.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Per the lawsuit, Davis sold herself as someone who overcame an eating disorder with proper workouts and healthy eating ... which prosecutors say led to countless people soliciting her services to do the same. Except, instead of getting personalized advice that would help them ... the Texas AG claims she fed ‘em BS, in the form of super low-calorie diets that were actually detrimental to a lot of those who actually needed to put on weight.

Davis is also alleged to have responded to people who emailed or DM'd her with cookie-cutter messages, like "You’re killing it!" and a bunch of hype lines that hardly addressed the specific needs of each client. Plus, a lot of her ex-customers claim she’d often fall off the face of the earth after just one or two interactions ... even though the AG says many signed on with the expectation of regular one-on-one consultations.

S*** hit the fan for Davis in 2019 when the backlash became so big she finally had to address it on camera ... offering a tearful apology and vowing to make things right. Unfortunately, it sounds like it was too little, too late for the AG.

The State of Texas is asking for damages of up to a million bucks ... citing what it calls false, misleading or deceptive practices.

As for Davis, it looks like she has moved on to a new venture -- hawking religious retreats and spiritual guidance as a devout Christian.

Julia Fox On Kanye No Worries About Him Pining for Kim ... 'He's with Me Now!!!'

020922_julia_fox_kal
WHAT I LIKE
CALL HER DADDY/SPOTIFY

Julia Fox sounds pretty damn confident about her relationship with Kanye West ... 'cause she's at least saying she isn't concerned about him trying to get back with Kim Kardashian.

Julia was on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast and opened up about past run-ins with the law, sexual fantasies and of course, Ye.

"I'm sure there's still some residual feelings, and that's normal, it's human," Fox said about any lingering feelings he has about his estranged wife. She boasted, "I also know that he's with me now. And that's all that matters."

When asked if they have labels, Fox replied, "I call him my boyfriend and he calls me his girlfriend." She even had a response for those that doubt their relationship ... "Time will tell, you'll just see,"

Julia was also asked about her preferences when it comes to porn, and she had some specific genres locked and loaded -- “I’m into weirdly, like, partner swapping and then watching, more [foursomes] vibes,” she shared.

Check out the clip, because she even explains why she's into that. Listen up, Ye!!!

On the topic of a future with her BF, Fox says there have been "us" and "we" conversations happening, but a lot of their relationship has been on a whim and last minute.

Of course, this podcast was recorded before Ye's post begging God to bring his family back together. Gotta wonder if that's shaking Julia's confidence at all.

J Lo & Ben Snuggle at 'Marry Me' Event ... Foreshadowing Much???

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck know exactly how to stir the pot ... and getting all gooey-eyed for each other while standing in front of "Marry Me" signage had the desired effect.

The couple was all snuggled up with each other as they entered the screening for her upcoming flick Tuesday night at the Directors Guild of America in L.A. -- and let's keep it real ... everyone was thinking the same thing.

Yeah, we know it is just the movie's title, but it's also the topic everyone's raised since about 15 minutes after they reunited last year. J Lo was all smiles in a white lace dress while cozied up to Ben is only fueling that.

Hey, from the looks of it ... everything seems to be all peachy in BenniferVille right now. Maybe even more solid than when they were first engaged 18 years ago.

Of course, it would be way too on the nose for Ben to pop the question just as this movie's hitting theaters, and it's Valentine's Day. It's just too expected. Right?

Then again ... there's always reverse psychology!!!

Basically, we have no idea what's in the future for J Lo and Ben's future. But, they look happy.

Island Boys' Flyysoulja 'Gotta Stop Gang Violence!!!' Sends Condolences to Victim's Family

STOP THE VIOLENCE
TMZ.com

Alex Venegas, aka Flyysoulja from the 'Island Boys', is doing all he can to make amends with the family of an 8-year-old shooting victim ... after finding out his friend is suspected of killing the little girl.

As we reported, Andrew James Thomas was arrested during a raid at Flyysoulja's rented Florida home. He says the bust, and news of Thomas' alleged involvement in a murder, came as a total shock ... and now he tells TMZ, he'd love to help the child's family if they can connect.

For now, he's urging folks to stay away from gang violence. The TikTok star says he wants to be a positive role model, and encourage others to be better citizens ... because he hates seeing innocent people get hurt.

Flyysoulja was home Monday when cops descended on Thomas -- and he told officers his friend had urged him to hide a gun, but Flyysoulja says he refused to help him at all.

Cops ended up booking Thomas for gun possession, violation of probation for a separate robbery case, and first-degree murder for the deadly drive-by shooting of the child in Palm Beach.

While Flyysoulja and his twin bro became internet-famous last year for their viral and unintentionally hilarious "Island Boy" freestyle -- they're taking the raid very seriously.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Flyysoulja tells us he has a daughter -- so, the fact a little girl was killed in the drive-by has really shaken and inspired him to get more vocal about preventing gang violence.

'Friday' Star Anthony Johnson Cause of Death Revealed Alcohol Killed Him

Anthony Johnson died from years of hard drinking ... according to the medical examiner, and it's something his wife wanted people to know.

His autopsy report, obtained by TMZ, cites "chronic ethanol use" as the "Friday" star’s cause of death -- while also noting the manner of death was natural.

The doc states there was no alcohol or common drugs of abuse found in his system when officials ran a toxicology test. One other thing ... the coroner's office found he'd recently tested positive for COVID, although signs of pneumonia weren't detected.

His widow, Lexis, tells us Anthony’s legacy will live on through a foundation she’s creating in his name. She also says she wants the cause of death to be public knowledge as a warning to others about the lethal effects of alcohol.

Lexis is making it her mission now to teach youth about the dangers of alcohol, as she's volunteering at church to talk to teens. In addition to Anthony, Lexis has other close friends who lost their children due to alcohol. She now wants Anthony's legacy to inspire others to put the bottle down. BTW, we're told she told the ME about AJ's alcohol use.

As we reported ... Johnson was found lifeless last year in an L.A.-area store. He was rushed to the hospital and later pronounced dead.

Obviously, he was most famous for playing Ezal in the original "Friday" flick, but had a good handful of other parts under his belt as well, including in movies like "Menace II Society," "House Party," "The Players Club" and others.

Hollywood was in shock upon hearing the news, and none other than Offset helped to cover funeral costs for the family.

He was 55. RIP

Eminem opened his 'Mom's Spaghetti' brick-and-mortar restaurant in his hometown back in September. The menu is inspired by the rapper's lyrics in "Lose Yourself" ... Spaghetti with Toasted Garlic Bread, Spaghetti with Beef or Vegan Meatball, and a S'ghetti Sandwich (which is literally a piece of Eminem's childhood).

“It’s not the kind of pasta you’d expect if your grandma came from Italy on a boat … it’s more like the spaghetti you’d know if your mom came from Michigan on a bus,” says Mom’s Spaghetti co-owner Curt Catallo.

BTW ... Postmates is holding a sweepstake to win limited-edition jars of Mom’s Spaghetti’s sauce signed by Eminem.

Floyd Mayweather Hands Out $100 Bills To Kids ... At Lakers Game

020822_floyd_mayweather_kal
FOR THE KIDS
TMZSports.com

Christmas wrapped up nearly two months ago, but Floyd Mayweather still did his best Santa impression outside of the Lakers game on Tuesday night ... doling out $100 bills to kids!

It was a super generous act for the legendary boxer ... who said, "I'm all about giving back to the kids" as he forked over cash to youngsters who were trying to sell candy bars at Crypto.com Arena.

In total, Floyd handed over $400 or $500 to the kids ... and he didn't blink an eye parting ways with the money -- adding, "The kids out here selling candy, they ain't doing nothing wrong."

Floyd then promised to repeat the gesture "every time" he sees them at the games going forward.

It should be noted ... Mayweather did not take any candy in return for the cash, a sign that he's taking his upcoming exhibition match later this month pretty dang seriously.

As for inside of Crypto.com Arena ... well, let's just say Money's postgame interaction with the kids was much more entertaining -- 'cause L.A. got blown out badly in front of Mayweather by the Milwaukee Bucks, 131-116.

Aretha Franklin Family Bummed Over 'Respect' Snub ... Jennifer Deserved Oscar!!!

All Aretha Franklin's family's asking is for the Motion Picture Academy to show Jennifer Hudson a little R-E-S-P-E-C-T ... and its failure to even nominate her isn’t sitting well with them.

Aretha’s niece, Sabrina Owens, tells TMZ she’s disappointed about the Oscar snub because she feels JH did a fantastic job in the biopic, "Respect" -- one worthy of recognition, and feels her aunt would’ve agreed.

She also says the film project was Aretha’s baby while she was alive -- she was heavily involved in shepherding it to production, and even hand-picked Jennifer for the lead role.

Sabrina explains ... her aunt was a perfectionist who took pride in her work, and would’ve liked to see an Oscar nod for Jennifer’s turn.

Ditto for Brenda Franklin Corbit, Aretha’s first cousin and former backup singer. She tells us she’s heartbroken about Jennifer being left out, adding the Academy made a huge mistake ... as she feels JH poured her heart and soul into the role and knocked it out of the park.

And get this ... Brenda even suggests Aretha would’ve been seriously upset about the exclusion because she definitely had Oscar on her mind while putting the whole thing together.

It kinda goes without saying, but Brenda hopes Jennifer knows the Franklin family at large thinks she made Aretha proud ... and they consider her one of their own.

The Hudson snub is one of many that people are up in arms about. In addition to her, Lady Gaga fans are crying foul for her not getting a nom for "House of Gucci."

Fact is there's always disappointment with the Academy after Oscar noms come out -- can't win ‘em all, after all -- but dissing the Queen of Soul?

Her family's confident Aretha's reaction would sound very familiar.

Tim Ryan Mondays Should Be Federal Holidays ... During NFL Playoffs!!!

DOWN WITH MONDAYS
TMZSports.com

Wouldn't it be perfect if ya didn't have to worry about school or work after a Sunday filled with awesome playoff football??

Well, if it were up to Congressman Tim Ryan, you wouldn't -- 'cause he tells TMZ Sports he believes everyone should have Mondays off during the NFL playoffs!!

"Every Monday during NFL playoffs we should have federal holidays," Ryan tells us. "I mean, you shouldn’t have to go to work or school after some of these football games. You kidding me?!"

Of course, Cincinnati's public schools announced last week that staff and kids would have the day after the Super Bowl off to celebrate (or mourn) the result of Sunday's big game.

Ryan -- who's a native of Ohio --  is prepared to take that move a step further ... saying that should be the norm for everyone during the playoffs!!

Finally -- some politics we all can agree on ... now make it happen!!

There's more. Ryan -- a representative for Ohio's 13th congressional district -- is a lifelong Browns fan ... and although his team won't be playing in Super Bowl LVI, Tim made it very clear who he'll be rooting for.

“You gotta go with Joe [Burrow]," Ryan said, "1000 percent."

"It’s Ohio. He’s a complete badass and he hasn’t forgotten where he came from. And when you're from Ohio, those are the three criteria."
