Steve Harvey I Should Do All My Breakups On IG!!! Jokes About Lori & Michael B. Jordan Split
Steve Harvey didn't wait too long to start crackin' jokes about his daughter's breakup with Michael B. Jordan ... and admits he might've learned a new way to avoid another costly divorce.
Steve talked about his daughter Lori Harvey parting ways with MBJ on his morning show Monday ... and can't help himself from getting in a laughing mood while doing so.
He says his kids are teaching him to "get out early" from relationships ... and even thinks a breakup on social media is the way to go -- citing court costs as a dealbreaker. Don't forget, the guy's been divorced 2 times, and had quite the fight in court back in 2018.
Steve's ex-wife Mary sued him for $60M over mental anguish, saying she was suicidal in the wake of their 2005 divorce. The judge just threw out her case, because it belonged in front of a judge in Texas ... where the divorce was handled.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
As we reported, Michael and Lori reportedly split after being together for over a year ... the reason is still unknown, but the two hadn't posted about each other online in months.
Lori seems to have scrubbed her socials, removing any trace of MBJ ... so, yeah.

Wild Video Cowboys Lasso Loose Cow ... On Busy OKC Highway
Absolutely wild scene in Oklahoma City on Monday ... a cow got loose on a busy highway -- and two cowboys (not the ones from Dallas!) had to wrangle it in with horses and lassos!!
A news crew's camera in the sky captured the entire incident ... from the pursuit to the moment the cowboys captured the escaped animal.
Two people using vehicles attempted to pin the cow to a fence near the road ... but once that failed, a cowboy riding on his horse sprang into action and took off after the cow with a rope in hand.
COW LOOSE ON OKC HIGHWAY 🐄🤠 Sky 5 was flying over the moments when cowboys and emergency crews wrangled a cow that got loose on a busy Oklahoma City highway. https://t.co/pgZRNirP9R pic.twitter.com/NgnlgqiEEA

The cowboy then threw the lasso out ... and hooked the beast around its neck. A second cowboy came in and lassoed the cow's feet, mercifully bringing the wild chase to an end.
The takedown was heroic -- considering there were cars zooming by at a high rate of speed on the opposite side of the road just feet away.
Still no word yet on how the cow broke loose ... but, fortunately, it appears all parties involved came away from the scene OK.
Phew.

Johnny Depp Dropping $$$ on Indian Food!!! Celebrates Big Win
Johnny Depp broke the bank on Indian food while overseas ... spending the night with his closest friends to celebrate his massive win over his ex-wife Amber Heard.
Johnny and co. hit up Varanasi -- a restaurant in Birmingham, England -- Sunday night, and they did way more than just order a few apps to share. The joint's Operations Director Mohammed Hussain tells TMZ Johnny's bill was in the neighborhood of 50,000 British pounds, or about $60k.
We're told Johnny was joined by pal Jeff Beck and 20 other hungry friends, and the place was closed down to the public so they all could dine in peace.
Mohammed says he was shocked Johnny was stopping by his place, and says the actor was an extremely humble guy ... the two even chatted it up for a while in his private office.
As you know, Johnny's been livin' like a rockstar in the U.K. after his big W in court ... missing the verdict but taking his time overseas to celebrate.
Johnny has said the jury gave him his life back, and a big part of his life has been music. In fact, when Johnny came to Hollywood, his goal was to become a rock star, not an actor.

'Top Gun: Maverick' Paramount Sued Over Film Rights That Story Is Our Family's!!!
Tom Cruise never would've been flying high in 'Top Gun' or its sequel if it wasn't for a story that the films are based on, the rights to which have lapsed ... this per a new lawsuit.
Die-hard fans might already be aware of this -- but the original 'Top Gun' from '86 is based on an article written by a guy named Ehud Yonay ... who wrote a very detailed piece in '83 about fighter pilots in the Navy. Yonay says Paramount snapped up the rights at the time by brokering a deal with him ... and it's well-known the film is based on his story.
That copyright claim Paramount secured at the time had an exclusive ownership period of 35 years ... Yonay's widow and son say they sent Paramount a notice that terminated the studio's rights to the story in January 2020.
The family alleges that Part 2 -- which they insist contains elements of their late dad/hubby's original tale -- wasn't technically completed until May 2021, and they claim it's clearly derivative of Yonay's story.
TOP GUNS – BY EHUD YONAY

California Magazine, May 1983 - the magazine article that inspired #TopGun #TopGunMaverick https://t.co/5SBMJnnxqu https://t.co/es5FNcYFs7 pic.twitter.com/sg9Qu84Q1Z
The timing here is key -- several reports suggest filming for 'Maverick' wrapped in 2019 ... but it will be interesting to see if Paramount claims post-production was completed before January 2020, which the Yonays assert was the cut-off date if Paramount wanted to crank out another 'TG' based on the old license.
Anyway, due to the box office success of the sequel -- upwards of hundreds of millions, globally -- the family is now suing for an injunction to stop Paramount from infringing on the story and, of course, damages. We reached out to Paramount, no word back.
Tom isn't being sued personally.

Amber Heard Sister Posts Message of Support
Amber Heard’s sister has no regrets about the outcome of the Johnny Depp trial -- putting on a united front even in defeat.
Whitney Henriquez shared her support for her “sissy” on IG, this a few days after a jury ruled in favor of her ex-brother-in-law. She didn’t mince words … saying she’d do it all over again. The photo attached was just a hashtag -- #istandwithamberheard.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
WH says, “I still stand with you, sissy. Yesterday, today and tomorrow I will always be proud of you for standing up for yourself, for testifying both here in Virginia and in the UK, and for being the voice of so many who can’t speak to the things that happen behind closed doors."
She adds, “We knew that this was going to be an uphill battle and that the cards were stacked against us. But you stood up and spoke out regardless."
Whitney says she knows what she saw, and would get on the stand for Amber a “million times over.” She also says she still stands with AH — as do others, despite the outcome.
You'll recall, Whitney was one of a handful of witnesses for Team Amber in the 6-week trial down in Virginia — and she was key, because she was the only person who could say they’d seen a physical fight with their own two eyes. Whitney claimed Johnny struck her first, and then went on to pummel Amber at the top of a staircase … aka, the “Kate Moss moment."
The opportunity to testify once more on Amber’s behalf might come sooner than later … assuming her sibling actually follows up with appealing the verdict like she’s said she will.
BTW, FOX Network is airing a new TMZ-produced special this week about the case -- it's called "Johnny vs. Amber: From Love to Hate," and it airs Tuesday at 9/8 CT.

Benny The Butcher is doing his part in helping his Buffalo hometown move forward after a white supremacist gunman murdered 10 people at the local Tops Friendly Market grocery store in May.
Benny and his Black Soprano Family team linked with designers Kat & Nolan Cartwright for a limited edition t-shirt drop with 100% of the profits going to the Buffalo Survivors Fund.
The shirts, which honor all 10 victims with their names, are available now, retail for $40, and only 200 of them were made.
To further emphasize the moment, he also released the new single "Welcome To the States," a political rap record (that flips Kendrick Lamar's "We Cry Together") and details racism and even gives a subtle shoutout to Young Thug and Gunna's ongoing legal drama.
The shooting dampened spirits nationwide ... but particularly hit home for the Griselda rapper, who regularly shops there with his family, as it's only a few minutes from his home.
Because of the incident, his middle-school-aged daughter has yet to return to school.
The accused suspect has since pled not guilty to the murders.

American Airlines Flight Attendant, There's a Fly in My Salad!!!

Exclusive Details

9:28 AM PT -- A rep for American Airlines tells TMZ ... "“We’re concerned about this report, as what the customer is describing is not up to our standards. We are investigating this matter and are working directly with our catering provider in Frankfurt. A member of our team has reached out to the customer to apologize and learn more about their experience.”
You always hear about how bad airline food is — but this is a whole new level … yuck.
Check out this video posted by a man who says he hopped an American Airlines flight from Frankfurt to Dallas-Fort Worth last week — riding business class, no less — and found tiny little bugs crawling around in his salad.
The greens were packaged separately and wrapped in plastic wrap, and sure enough … there seems to be something, or things, squirming around in there.
The passenger griped ... “The business class was over $10,000 round trip and this is the quality of service. Food with live bugs being served and a staff that simply laughed it off and asked if I wanted a different salad.”
He tagged AA too, and they responded — saying they’d flag it to the appropriate team and that it would be addressed.
Next time, pack an extra protein bar. 🤢

G Flip was at the award show and planted a big kiss on Chrishell to celebrate her taking home the trophy. Interestingly, her costar, and ex-bf, Jason Oppenheim was in the crowd too ... along with the rest of her castmates.

Gisele Films Tom Brady In His Undies ... 'Hey New Underwear!!!'
Gisele just gave us all a glimpse of Tom Brady that we've never seen before ... showing video of the greatest of all-time in nothing but his undies!!!
The supermodel just posted video of her hubby in a bathroom on her social media page, showin' off his fit bod and his latest Brady Brand boxer briefs.
Tom appears to be timid in the clip -- but Gisele was clearly loving putting him on camera, asking the Tampa Bay Buccaneers star about his skivvies over and over again in the quick vid.
"Hey new underwear!" Gisele said while laughing. "Let me see. Let me see your new underwear. Is that Brady Brand?!"
Tom, with some sly hand placement to make sure the camera didn't capture too much of his body, eventually threw a towel over his wife's phone -- before the video ended.
As you know ... Brady ventured into the retail industry at the beginning of this year when he launched his own Brady Brand clothing line, and it seems the next item he's lookin' to hawk is underwear.
And, hey, if you look half as good as the 44-year-old, 7-time Super Bowl champ does in them ... might be worth the investment??

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Going Back to Cali ... Board Private Jet, Skip Jubilee Closing
Now we know why Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were so conspicuously missing from the end of the Queen's Jubilee celebrations -- they were at 30,000 feet several hours beforehand.
Harry looked pensive and exhausted in Santa Barbara Sunday morning after the Sussexes and their 2 children flew private from London -- passing on the final Jubilee events, including the People's Pageant, and a surprise appearance by Queen Elizabeth herself.
QE2 kept it brief, but she did come out on her Buckingham Palace balcony to do some royal waving to her subjects gathered for the pageant. It was her first public appearance since the Jubilee began on Thursday, because she'd been feeling under the weather. Once again, she was joined by Prince Charles and Camilla, Prince William and Kate and their 3 kids.
Even if Meghan and Harry had stayed for the finale, it's doubtful they'd have been on the balcony. They'd been banished to a separate room for the Jubilee kickoff, and they sat as far as possible from Kate and William during a church service.
Their early retreat back to their home in Montecito is just one more confirmation of what's painfully obvious -- the U.K. trip was for the Queen's sake, and NOT because things are any better between Harry and his brother and his father. The 3 of them were never photographed together all weekend.
Silver lining ... their daughter, Lilibet, got to meet her namesake and great-grandmother, the Queen.

Kristin Cavallari Jabs at Jay Cutler After Divorce Comments ... I've Been Partying for 2 Years!!!

Jay Cutler's getting one-upped in the post-divorce celebration department by his ex Kristin Cavallari ... who says Jay's got a lot of catching up to do, and also hints he's already violated their settlement.
We caught up with Kristin at LAX, and asked for her thoughts on finalizing the divorce from the ex-NFL star ... who commented about it this week on his "Uncut with Jay Cutler" podcast. Jay boasted about his bank account not really taking a hit in their divorce, and added, "When the settlement came through, I threw a party."
Well, Kristin was pretty much mum to our camera guy on the settlement. In fact, she told us she doesn't think she's allowed to discuss it ... hinting there's a non-disclosure agreement and Jay shouldn't be blabbing either.
Now, as for Jay being in party mode -- well Kristin didn't hold back on that topic. We asked if she'll throw her own post-divorce bash, and she said "I've been partying for 2 years straight" ... a not-so-subtle reference to the divorce filing in April 2020.
You'll recall ... Kristin and Jay called it quits after a decade-long relationship that started after they met at a Chicago Bears preseason game. They got married 3 years later and had 3 kids.
Now that it's over, sounds like they're both celebrating good times.

Bodybuilder Calum von Moger Reveals Gruesome Injuries ... Suffered In Near-Death Fall
Bodybuilding star Calum von Moger just revealed some of the injuries he suffered in a near-death fall last month ... showing he was battered, bruised, scarred and deeply cut on nearly every part of his body.
Posting on his social media page this weekend for the first time since he reportedly crashed through a second-story window in early May ... von Moger showed his body went through hell.
In a video the 31-year-old took from his hospital bed, you can see he required stitches to close wounds on his hands and arms, and also needed bandages all over as well.
von Moger, who reportedly suffered a spine injury in the fall that was so severe it had him in a medically induced coma, also showed a photo of a huge scar on the middle of his back.
"What waking up from a bad dream looks like..." he wrote in the caption on the video.
von Moger added that "it's nice to be alive" ... and thanked all his fans for their "well wishes and prayers" while he was in the hospital.
von Moger, according to reports, returned home from the medical facility in late May -- a few weeks after the fall -- and he was reportedly seen there walking without any assistance.
The former Mr. Universe, who also played a young Arnold Schwarzenegger in the '18 flick "Bigger," did say in an Instagram story, though, that he still has a "long road ahead to recover from this one."
Get well soon, Calum.

Step into Owen Wilson's shoes for just a moment, and imagine how it feels to walk out of your home to this scene -- your luxurious Tesla, freshly stripped by thieves! 😬
We got this shot of Owen's Tesla gently placed on blocks, after the crooks made off with all 4 tires and rims -- leaving him with no way to even drive his car to get it repaired. And, to make matters worse, it all happened while his car was parked right outside his Santa Monica house.
Luckily, the car didn't appear to have any other damages, but we're told he's gonna have to cough up an estimated $4k for the missing wheels. We're sure his insurance broker appreciates the paperwork.
TMZ broke the story ... Owen had parked his car on the street a few weeks ago, and when he went outside ... boom! Instant bummer.
Cops have opened a grand theft investigation, but so far no word on suspects.
Law enforcement sources tell us cops are scouring security cameras in the neighborhood for clues.

LeBron James Triple Logoman Card Hits Auction ... Could Fetch Over $6.6 Mil
-
Exclusive
- 260 shares
A one-of-a-kind LeBron James Triple Logoman card -- which many experts consider the most coveted modern collectible in the world -- is hitting the auction block ... and we're told it could sell for OVER $6 MILLION!!
TMZ Sports has learned that the card, which features 3 NBA logo patches from jerseys worn by the King, is expected to rival the all-time record of $6.6 million -- which a wealthy collector paid for a Honus Wagner T-206 card -- when it hits the block at Goldin Auctions on June 8.
Just the fact the Bron card is being talked about in the same breath as the T-206 Wagner -- considered the "Holy Grail" of trading cards -- is pretty incredible, but to think the Logoman could go for nearly $7 million is insane.
“The LeBron James Triple Logoman card is the undisputed holy grail of modern cards,” said Goldin founder Ken Goldin.
The three NBA logo patches on the front of the card come from a Cavaliers, Heat, and Lakers jersey ... each of James' three teams.
Triple Logoman cards are super rare ... only five were made by Panini as part of their 2020-21 "Flawless" collection. Only one LeBron TL exists.
The back of the card features a small certificate of authenticity ... and details LBJ's four NBA titles.
How badly do collectors want the card? Drake purchased 10 cases (at $46K each) as he attempted to track down the Triple Logoman Bron.
Drizzy -- who has gotten heavy into card collecting -- pulled several Michael Jordan rookie cards, but unfortunately, no dice on the LeBron.
Of course, if the Certified Lover Boy artist really wants it ... bidding starts Wednesday!!

Exclusive

The woman who claims Alaska Airlines gave her the boot because she was too fat has drastically slimmed down ... going under the knife to shed hundreds of pounds.
Ray Lin Howard tells TMZ … she weighed 420 pounds when she was removed from an Alaska flight back in September, and she's since lost 181 pounds following a surgical procedure and changes to her diet and exercise routine.
Ray Lin says she's down to 239 pounds and credits the gastric sleeve surgery performed by Dr. Samuel Kashani ... combined with healthier eating habits and daily walks.
Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.
Remember ... RLH claims she got kicked off her flight for being too fat for her sports bra, alleging harassment and discrimination and saying it was the worst case of "fatphobia" in her life.
But, she used the incident as a turning point, telling us she decided to make a change in her lifestyle following all the headlines.
TMZ broke the story ... Dr. Kashani reached out to Ray Lin after he saw her airline story, with the Bev Hills surgeon offering to perform the gastric sleeve surgery for free -- a sweet deal because it normally goes for $42,000.
Ray Lin says she's happy she went through with the procedure, and while she still loves her curves ... she does want to remove some excess skin after the weight loss.
One more big change for her -- she separated from her husband when she returned home from the surgery.
No word if RLH plans to reach out to the IG model who claims her 22-pound boobs are the reason she was recently kicked off an American Airlines flight.
