ELECTRIC MOVES

Angelina Jolie isn't afraid to cut a rug, not even in front of her daughter, Zahara, who she joined at a freshman event for Spelman college ... dancing to the electric slide!!!

Angelina hit the dance floor Saturday night while attending the annual freshman send-off ... all smiles while she busted a move with her kiddo and others at the event. Jolie dances to the popular song for a bit, before rooting for others from the sideline.

The event welcomes new students in the area who will attend historically Black colleges Spelman and Morehouse ... introing new students to faculty and alumni as well.

Clearly, mama Jolie couldn't be happier about Zahara's choice for the next 4 years.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

If her dance moves and huge smile weren't convincing enough... Angelina also took to Instagram, writing, "Zahara with her Spelman sisters! Congratulations to all new students starting this year. A very special place and an honor to have a family member as a new Spelman girl".

Tiger Woods Turned Down LIV Golf's $700-$800 Mil ... Greg Norman Says

Tiger Woods could have been nearly $1 BILLION richer if he had joined LIV Golf this year ... so says Greg Norman, who confirmed the new, Saudi-backed league offered the legend around $700-$800 million to defect from the PGA Tour.

Norman, who's LIV Golf's CEO, revealed the details of the staggering offer during an interview with Tucker Carlson that aired on Monday night -- saying the huge proposal came from the league even before he had officially taken the executive role with the org.

"That number was out there before I became CEO," Norman said. "So, that number's been out there, yes. And, look, Tiger's a needle mover, right?"

"So," he added, "yes, that number is somewhere in that neighborhood."

Tiger, of course, did not accept the offer ... and when he spoke about the new golf org. while at The Open in Scotland last month -- he ripped some of golf's biggest stars for taking the money and bolting from the PGA Tour.

"I think that what they've done is they've turned their back on what has allowed them to get to this position," Woods said of the LIV golfers -- which includes huge names like Phil Mickelson, Bryson DeChambeau and Dustin Johnson.

"TURNED THEIR BACK"
The Open

Woods also called out Norman for his role with LIV at the July event -- saying he didn't believe the former golf star was doing things that were "in the best interest of our game."

"What these players are doing for guaranteed money, what is the incentive to practice?" Woods added. "What is the incentive to go out there and earn it in the dirt? You’re just getting paid a lot of money upfront and playing a few events and playing 54 holes. They’re playing blaring music and have all these atmospheres that are different."

LIV Golf officially kicked off with an event in London in June -- and during the tournament, the PGA Tour announced indefinite suspensions for anyone competing in it.

'90 DAY FIANCE' JORGE NAVA Gets Married in Vegas

Jorge Nava doesn't need another "90 Day Fiancé" ... because the reality TV star is now a married man after getting hitched, Sin City style!

According to online records, Jorge got a marriage license and tied the knot with Rhoda Blua, and she's taking his last name.

We're told Jorge and Rhoda got married Sunday at a Las Vegas wedding chapel, and then spent part of their night gambling at The Cosmopolitan hotel and casino.

Folks who were there say another couple watched Jorge and Rhoda jump the broom, then that foursome went gambling together on the Vegas strip.

Jorge and Rhoa went Instagram official back in June 2020 ... a couple months before he filed for divorce from his first wife, Anfisa, who was featured with him on season 4 of "90 Day Fiance."

Remember ... Jorge and Anfisa got married on Aug 1, 2017 after being a big hit on the TLC show. They did not have any kids.

On the other hand, Jorge and Rhoa already have 2 kids together -- a son, George, and a daughter, Zara.

Mazel tov!!!

A mother in New Jersey has some major beef with Chuck E. Cheese, accusing the popular kid's mascot of racial discrimination for seemingly ignoring a high five attempt.

The woman, who goes by Umm Safa on Twitter, posted a video she says she shot on July 30 at the CEC location in Wayne, NJ showing her daughter excitedly jumping up and down before reaching her hand out. You can see the mouse high five white kids on the stage before seemingly ignoring the little black girl.

What's not clear is whether or not the person inside the costume could actually see the little girl, but that doesn't matter to Safa.

Safa writes, "My 2yo was racially discriminated against. As you can see, he gives all of the yt kids hi-5s & PURPOSELY ignored my black baby. When confronted, he ignored me as well. The manager made excuses for him."

Safa says the manager tried to explain that the person in the costume couldn't see the little girl, and she's "sorry I feel that way" ... but Safa exclaims, "This is getting out of hand!!!"

Ansel Elgort Making Out with Woman in Italy ... Amid GF Breakup Rumors

Ansel Elgort seems to have a new lady in his life -- at least based on these shots of him sucking face in public with a gal who's definitely not his longtime dancer girlfriend.

The "West Side Story" star was feeling cozy in Capri Monday, but wasn't alongside Violetta Komyshan ... with whom Ansel's been romantically involved for years. Instead, this appears to be a mystery woman who's grabbed the attention ... of his hands and lips.

These pics, obtained by TMZ, show Ansel getting a handful of his lady friend's backside as they get ready for a dip in the ocean. They had company too ... another unidentified woman who joined them at the beach and a restaurant.

As you can see, the brunette and Ansel locked lips in the water as she wrapped her legs around his waist.

There have been rumors for months now that VK and Ansel split, and it's possible his Italian vacay without her confirms that. We've reached out to his reps, but no word back yet.

Ansel and Violetta were out together in NYC for opening night of the play "Funny Girl" back in the spring -- and they also reportedly bought a pad together in NYC.

Hey, they'll always have Broadway!

'WHY DON'T WE' DANIEL SEAVEY Gets Restraining Order Against Fan Who Broke Into House, Slept in Bed

Daniel Seavey, a member of the band Why Don't We, just got a restraining order against the obsessed fan who broke into his home and slept in his bed -- claiming this wasn't the first time she's popped up in his life.

Sources close to Seavey tell us ... the woman's on the loose again, after being released from a 72-hour psych hold ... and according to his docs, she’s repeatedly showed up at his gym ... so there's clearly a recurring problem.

The court’s order, obtained by TMZ, requires her to remain 100 yards away from Seavey … and to steer clear of the rocker’s house, whether he’s there or not.

As of now, the woman has not been arrested or charged, but Seavey is understandably concerned, saying he's "in fear of what she may do upon release." Thing is ... she HAS been released.

As we reported, the 23-year-old snuck into his house through an open window and stayed the night -- sleeping in his bed and putting on his clothes.

As for why ... she told police the ink on his arm was all the inspiration she needed to sneak in and shoot her shot.

Ben and Jen See The Marriage Certificate ... From Las Vegas Wedding

It took a couple decades, but Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez finally have a marriage certificate ... and TMZ has the first look.

We obtained the official document from Ben and Jen's surprise wedding in Sin City, and it shows the couple got married at the famous Little White Wedding Chapel on the Las Vegas strip.

Ben and J Lo's marriage was performed by Pastor Ryan Wolfe ... and they got hitched in front of a witness named Kenosha Booth.

The certificate also has Ben and Jen's legal names ... Benjamin Geza Affleck and Jennifer Lynn Lopez ... and shows J Lo wanting to take Ben's last name and be known as Jennifer Affleck after marriage.

TMZ broke the story ... Ben and Jen got their marriage license last month in Clark County, NV and tied the knot after flying into Sin City.

J Lo posted a ton of pics and videos from the surprise wedding, showing her in her wedding dress and Ben in his tux.

Jennifer says they made it to the chapel just before it closed, and that's reflected in the marriage certificate ... Ben and Jen got the marriage license July 16 and the certificate says they were married July 17, with Jen saying it went down a little after midnight.

Ben and Jen spent their honeymoon in Paris, an emotional trip featuring an infamous boat nap and a make-out session in front of their kids, and they've got another big celebration on deck.

Jake Paul Challenged By Bola Osundairo ... Fight Me Saturday!!

READY FOR ACTION

Hasim Rahman Jr. out -- Bola Osundairo in ... vs. Jake Paul?!

If one of the brothers who assisted Jussie Smollett in his hate crime hoax gets his way, that's exactly what'll happen ... 'cause Bola tells TMZ Sports he's ready to fight Saturday night at Madison Square Garden, as was originally scheduled.

“Do not cancel that fight Jake Paul. Fight me instead. I am ready to fight this Saturday," 28-year-old Bola said Monday afternoon.

SCARED & UNPROFESSIONAL

The 2-0 pro fighter (who also had several amateur fights) tells us he's a superior fighter to both boxers Jake was set to scrap with August 6.

"I’m ready to fight. I’m better than Hasim Rahman Jr., or Tommy Fury. I’m actually ranked higher than Tommy Fury and he has 8 pro fights, and I have 2 pro fights. He’s ranked 340, I’m ranked 193."

23-year-old Fury -- Jake's original opponent -- dropped out of their fight after having Visa issues, leaving him unable to reach the U.S.

Of course, Bola was one of the two brothers who assisted Jussie in his hoax attack ... before cooperating with authorities. Smollett was ultimately convicted of 5 felonies.

In ways, the fight makes more sense than Rahman Jr., who's significantly bigger than Jake (Hasim previously fought weighing over 260 pounds). The fight fell apart over weight issues ... the 12-1 boxer wasn't going to be able to make 200 pounds, as was contractually obligated.

080122_hasim_rahman_kal_1
NOT A FAIR SHAKE
TMZSports.com

Bola is 6'1", 188 pounds ... virtually identical to the 6'1", 190 pounds that Paul weighs.

And, Osundairo says he's more well-known than Rahman Jr. ... so it'd be an even bigger draw.

"People know me. People know of me. I’m one of the Nigerian brothers involved in the Jussie case, the Jussie Smollett case. So it will sell, this fight will sell. People know me more than Hasim Rahman Jr. Nobody knows him outside of boxing."

Bola ended with a shot at Jake (and Jussie).

"This will be a real fight. This won’t be like the Jussie Smollett fight. This will be a real actual beatdown, Jake Paul. So after I beat you up your name's gonna change to Jackie Paulette."

Guess Who This Toothy Kiddo Turned Into!

Before this little girl with pigtails was a Grammy award-winning musician, she was just your average kid waiting for the tooth fairy to come, hanging out with her brother and growing up in Los Angeles, California.

This cute kid had much success as a teenager and has continued to rake in numerous awards ... aside from her Grammy wins, she's accumulated Video Music Awards, Billboard Awards and lots more! Her success is definitely shared with her brother who is also deemed a successful musician himself.

Need one more hint? She enjoys making music in her childhood bedroom.

Can you guess who she is?

Deshaun Watson Women Org. Rips 6 Game Suspension ... 'Insulting & Dangerous!'

"It is unacceptable, insulting, and dangerous!"

That's the National Organization of Women (NOW) responding to Deshaun Watson's six-game suspension for sexual misconduct ... telling TMZ Sports it clearly shows "money talks, and women are unheard."

Watson's six-game suspension was announced Monday after disciplinary officer, former U.S. District Judge Sue L. Robinson ruled the Browns QB violated the NFL's personal conduct policy, sidelining Watson for roughly a third of the season.

NOW -- the nation's leading organization for women's rights -- says the ruling is "unacceptable, insulting, and dangerous" ... but not surprising, 'cause the league and its players have been in similar situations before.

"The NFL has had a violence against women problem for years -- and everyone knows it," NOW said.

I'LL PROVE MYSELF
Cleveland Browns

It's worth noting the NFL didn't hand down the suspension ... that was the former judge's call. In fact, the NFL reportedly wanted Watson to receive a significantly stronger suspension.

The league can appeal the decision, if they choose.

National Organization of Women also called out the Browns organization for giving Watson a $230M contract despite the accusations, 20+ lawsuits, and a pending suspension.

"They re-structured his contract to make the majority of his $46 million first-year payout a “signing bonus,” not tied to him playing actual games," NOW said.

"Shame on the Cleveland Browns for rewarding Deshaun Watson and shame on the NFL for perpetuating a system where money talks, and women aren’t heard."

In fact, NOW believes the 26-year-old shouldn't see a dime from the contract, on top of demanding the NFL change its policies.

"Deshaun Watson must not be allowed to profit from his horrific behavior," NOW said, "and the NFL must change its business model that allows, enables, and hides sexual misconduct into one that respects women and holds abusers accountable."

Watson -- who was never criminally charged -- settled 23 of the 24 lawsuits (as of Sunday). Barring an appeal that's upheld, Watson will be available to play QB against the Ravens Week 7.

Killer Mike & 2 Chainz Rip ATL City Council Over ‘Nuisance’ Ban ... Don’t Silence the Little Guys!!!

Atlanta rap sheriffs Killer Mike and 2 Chainz are fired up about getting their City Council to stand down on a proposed ban impacting local residents getting nightclub permits.

2 Chainz introduced himself briefly, but quickly passed the mic Monday to the more experienced Mike ... who let the Council know he was present back in May and was disappointed in the lack of movement on the issue.

He passionately stated his case ... that the “public nuisance” ban targets local business owners, who are largely Black, and would effectively erase the city's cultural identity -- which has already happened in NYC, L.A. and Miami.

Mike also warned that allowing corporations to hold dominion will spell immediate doom for the working class locals and urged the Council to reverse course ... instead of waiting for the public backlash.

He also reminded everyone ATL celebs and entertainers fund the city’s immediate efforts so -- like a Spike Lee joint -- they should do the right thing.

Outside, 2 Chainz rallied the troops and spotted a few creative billboards in protest.

Jon Stewart D.C. Shouting Match Over Vet Bill ... Makes Peace Afterward

Jon Stewart is fired up again in D.C. over the veteran bill he's fighting to get passed -- but this time, his anger was much more focused and raw than last week.

The former 'Daily Show' host got into a heated shouting match Monday just outside Capitol Hill, where he was facing off with conservative political commentator and media personality Jack Posobiec -- who apparently dropped in on Jon's ongoing lobbying efforts.

It's unclear what exactly precipitated Jon's wrath here, but one thing's for sure ... the dude is absolutely irate as he accuses Posobiec of acting in "bad faith."

A later video shows Jon in a much calmer state ... and Posobiec says cooler heads prevailed in the end. It sounds like whatever they were arguing over at first was resolved, because he actually shakes hands with Mr. Stewart.

Posobiec actually says he was on Jon and the veterans' side all along, and it seems Jon came to that realization too. What can't be denied is Jon Stewart's passion for this issue -- if his presence and powerful words alone weren't enough proof, take a look at the video.

Lil Durk Taking Time Off to Recover After Explosion on Stage

Lil Durk is going to be taking some time off after a scary incident during his set at Lollapalooza left the rapper with injuries to his face.

Durk posted a pic of himself at what appears to be a medical facility Sunday with the caption "Due to the incident that happened at Lollapalooza in Chicago on stage, I'ma take a break & focus on my health. I finished my performance yesterday for my fans. Appreciate y'all."

Durk was midway through performing his verse from Pooh Shiesty's “Back In Blood” record when there was an explosion of smoke super close to him on stage … causing Durk to back up, wiping and covering his face with his shirt.

Ironically or not, he went on to perform his verse off Nardo Wick's "Who Want Smoke??"

It's currently unclear if the explosion was planned, and Durk was just in the wrong position or if the effect happened unplanned.

Safety first!

Australia $1.8K McCrackdown on McMuffins ... Passenger Fined for Food in Luggage

Talk about inflation ... 2 McDonald's McMuffins are costing an airplane passenger nearly $2K, because Australia's dropping hefty fines to keep a certain non-Covid virus out of the country.

The unnamed passenger flew from Bali to Darwin, Australia last week, but committed a major culinary crime by leaving 2 undeclared egg and beef sausage McMuffins in their luggage ... according to Aussie officials. Even worse ... airport agents also found a ham croissant!

While the not-so-happy meal bust might seem funny to us, it's costing that passenger a $1,874 fine!!! The hero agent here is a biosecurity detector dog named Zinta ... part of Australia's crackdown on food safety and prevention measures following an outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease.

Australia's Department of Agriculture says Zinta sniffed out a "range of undeclared risk products."

So yeah, those McMuffins ended up costing more than the flight!

Lesson here ... if you wanna be a more evolved traveler into Darwin -- or anywhere else in Australia -- eat BEFORE you travel, 'cause nothing's getting passed Zinta and co.

Beyonce Taking Out Line In 'Renaissance' Album ... Following Ableist Backlash

Beyonce clearly heard the backlash from a group who felt a lyric on her new album was ableist and offensive ... because she's cutting it from the track.

The song "Heated" on Bey's "Renaissance" album ... features the line, “Sp*zzin’ on that ass, sp*zz on that ass.” After being called ableist for using the word, Beyonce decided to scrap and replace it, according to Variety.

Her team says the word was never intended to be used in a harmful way, but they're swapping it regardless.

The singer was met with distaste online pretty quickly when the album dropped ... with one saying she's still a powerhouse of a performer, before adding "But that doesn’t excuse her use of ableist language.”

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Of course, the slang comes from the word "spastic," which refers to muscle spasms -- many have conditions where they're unable to control the spasms that occur throughout the body.

This decision follows Lizzo's call to do the same thing -- as we reported, she dropped her single, "Grrrls," back in June ... which had the line "Hold my bag, bitch/ Hold my bag/ Do you see this s***?/ I'm a sp*z."

After receiving similar backlash, she switched the line to "hold me back," and offered up an apology ... adding "As an influential artist I'm dedicated to being part of the change I've been waiting to see in the world."

Mystikal Arrested for Rape, DV in Louisiana

Mystikal stands accused of rape again in Louisiana ... and he's back behind bars after a weekend arrest.

A rep for Ascension Parish Sheriff's Office tells TMZ ... the rapper was booked and processed Sunday on a first-degree rape charge, as well as charges related to domestic abuse, battery by strangulation, false imprisonment and property damage.

We're told no bond has been set, and he has yet to see a judge. As for what allegedly happened to spur this latest arrest ... the Sheriff's Office says their deputies responded to a hospital over a reported sexual assault, and interviewed the alleged victim themselves.

Based on that interview and apparent minor injuries that cops say this person sustained ... they felt there was enough there to go pick up Mystikal and slap the cuffs on him. The investigation is ongoing.

BTW, Mystikal has faced similar allegations in the past -- including somewhat recently. You'll recall ... he was charged with rape in the same state back in 2017 -- but beat the case when the charges were dropped for lack of evidence.

He was also accused of sexual battery in 2003, to which he pled guilty and served 6 years of hard time. We've reached out to his reps for comment, so far no word back.
