Britney Spears seems agitated/remorseful/hurt over the estrangement of her 2 sons, and is blaming it on Kevin Federline doing a TV interview.

Britney hopped on social media Saturday and said at one point she had physical custody of her kids more than Kevin -- when they were 6 through 9 years old.  She says she had them 70% of the time.

As we reported, the 2 kids -- 16-year-old Sean Preston and 15-year-old Jayden James -- have not seen their mom going on 6 months, and Britney says, "Since they've been gone I've honestly felt like a huge part of me has died."

This is an about-face from the anger she directed at her kids on social media, calling them "hateful," which triggered backlash.

She also said they were money-grubbing since child support payments were going to stop in a few years ... insinuating that's why they went on TV.

Custody of the 2 children has been a centerpiece of the family conflict. Before the conservatorship was established, a family law just stripped Britney of all custody and gave her supervised visitation conditioned on random drug testing.

Once the conservatorship was created and things became stable, she regained custody and it was about 50/50. Over the years, that began to wane and the kids spent way more time with Kevin than Britney.

Britney went on ... "Like literally I have no purpose anymore -- they were my joy, they were my everything. I look forward to seeing them."

Leo DiCaprio is back in action ... hitting up a lit party Saturday night in NYC, and he wasn't the only big celeb there.

Leo was at the Revolve Party at Casa Cipriani in lower Manhattan, with his signature cap pulled down as he hung at the bar.

Jared Leto was also there, dressed down, yakking it up with a bunch of folks. Jared seemed more social ... Leo was pretty much hanging by himself.

Lots of parties in The Big Apple as Fashion Week kicks off.

As we reported, Leo recently split with Camila Morrone. Leo split with Camila after 4 years of dating, which makes it substantially a quarantine romance.

As for Camila ...she was hanging out a week ago with Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber. She also partied with Kaia Gerber for Kaia's 21st birthday.

Rapper Swae Lee has a 1-year-old child, TMZ has learned ... and he's filed in L.A. court to establish joint custody.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Swae had a daughter back in 2020 with Brazilian model Aline Martins. He filed in July and will ask for 50/50 custody of 1-year-old Angel.

Aline discussed it all in an interview with Jornal Extra last year, telling the outlet, “I would like him to give love and be a present father, but I won't be humiliating myself either. I think my daughter doesn't deserve that."

It's unclear what the conflict is ... but we're told Swae's motivation for going to court is that he wants a real relationship with his daughter, and that includes sleeping at his home and spending significant time with her. He also wants a holiday schedule. Our Swae sources say the reason for filing court docs is to set the ground rules before any problem arises.

We're told Swae has been paying Aline money for the kid, but she had claimed last year that she had accumulated $15k in debt from expenses, prenatal care, and rent.

For those unaware, Swae's current girlfriend Victoria Kristine uploaded pics from her baby shower last week ... she captioned the gender reveal with "Our little wild one is on the way." She made the initial pregnancy announcement earlier in August. BTW ... they're having a boy.

Josh Duhamel seems to have gone back to his roots to apparently say "I do" with Audra Mari, only to then hit up a local watering hole near his stomping grounds.

Eyewitnesses are telling us the actor got hitched Saturday in Fargo, North Dakota -- a ways from his hometown in Minot, where he was born and raised -- and looks to have done the deed atop a rooftop at a place called the Jasper Hotel ... this according to someone who claims they saw the set up and ceremony from across the way.

Afterward, we're told Josh and Audra popped into a tavern in town known as Duffy's ... where they were knocking a few back and enjoying their time with the patrons on hand. The owner of the place, Chris Litton, tells us it was super casual -- just Josh, Audra and about half a dozen people who came in for drinks and hung around for 30 minutes before splitting.

As you can see from a photo posted on Duffy's FB page ... there's Josh in his tux and Audra in her wedding dress, and it looks like they're having a good damn time. Our sources say it's possible JD and the missus were bar hopping -- apparently, it's something a lot of people do out there after tying the knot. But it's also possible they were on their way to the reception.

We know they were in town ... 'cause Josh posted a photo from a local brewery in Fargo on Friday.

Assuming they did, in fact, get married -- which certainly seems to be the case -- it's not that surprising that Josh did something this down to earth ... the dude is known for being super humble and not nearly as into the Hollywood lifestyle other celebs are. And with this, he's further proving that he's a salt-of-the-earth kinda guy -- ditto for Audra too!

He'd previously said he didn't want or need much flash when it came to his nuptials -- other than close family and friends, some good tunes ... and, apparently, a shot or two.

Josh and Audra announced their engagement in January, this after being together for since at least late 2019. He was previously married to Fergie, but they divorced the year he met AM. We've reached out to Josh's team for confirmation -- but at any rate ... congrats!!!

Courtney Tillia is getting a ton of support and inspiring other teachers ... after throwing in the towel as an educator and becoming a millionaire as an OnlyFans model.

Courtney tells TMZ ... she's received an outpouring of supportive messages from teachers after TMZ revealed she racked up over $1M through her OnlyFans accounts in just over 3 years.

Something everyone knows ... teachers are grossly underpaid, so she's clearly getting the attention of her former colleagues, many of whom are struggling financially. She's gotten DMs from folks who say they're considering quitting teaching -- not necessarily a good thing for society, but it's a reality until teachers are paid more.

One user wrote, "Amazing! My Wife's a teacher and is also considering an OF account."

Courtney's husband is not only supportive of her move to OnlyFans ... he's the one who started taking pics to post and he's still in the mix. Oh, yeah, he also likes the money!!!

She says she really misses her students, but doesn't miss the job at all. She says she felt underpaid, unappreciated and strangled by school district control. She's now the master of her own destiny.

A Las Vegas sex worker is down to ensure the Raiders are REALLY taken care of all football season ... by offering her VIP services at discounted prices to all players and staff!!!

The potential real MVP is 5'9" blonde Ariel Ganja, who works at the famous Chicken Ranch brothel ... and she tells TMZ Sports she's offering a 50% off special to the org. for her sexual services this 2022-23 season as a "thank you" for bringing excitement to LV.

"I'm offering my VIP package to Raiders players and staff because the team has brought so much positivity and joy to the Vegas area and have helped boost my business at the brothel, thanks to the throngs of fans that visit Sin City to see the Raiders play," Ganja says.

The exclusive bundle also includes a free limo ride to the Chicken Ranch ... as well as a personal entrance to a private bungalow, so those who redeem the deal can come and go in secrecy.

Ganja tells us she hopes this turns into a business deal with the team and makes her the "Official Sex Worker to the Las Vegas Raiders."

"The Las Vegas Raiders have an official gaming partner and an official beer and wine partner," Ganja said. "Why not have an official sex work partner?"

"I hope to treat my Raiders VIPs so well that they’ll be compelled to make me the team’s 'Official Sex Worker.'"

Larsa Pippen has her new home base in Miami ... 'cause TMZ has learned she's scored a brand new penthouse.

We're told 'The Real Housewives of Miami' star scooped up the condo earlier this year for $3.375 million, and it's a steal at that price ... seeing as how it was on the market for $3.9 million.

The 4 bedroom, 5 bathroom pad is full of luxury -- the building comes with 5 pools (1 pool is so passe), a game room, boxing studio, fitness center and even a recording studio!!!

Literally something for everyone.

If that isn't enough ... the penthouse is located just minutes from Miami Beach and South Beach.

As you can see, there's a ton of space -- 3,312 sq. feet to be exact -- for entertaining good "friends" like Michael Jordan's son, Marcus.

It also has floor-to-ceiling windows ... great lighting for all those IG selfies Larsa might will definitely take.

Larsa had been, until recently, renting in Cali after selling her Fort Lauderdale mansion last September for $10.5 million.

Now, she's back in South Florida, with a brand new place to call home.

Sarah Snook's looks are strategically gorgeous!

Here is 23-year-old version of the Australian actress looking quite elegant with an updo and a red lip at the "Water For Elephants" premiere in Sydney back in 2011 (left). This was the same year she was cast in the drama/romance film "Sleeping Beauty."

And, 11 years later ... the beautiful "Succession" star -- who's nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for this year's Emmy's -- recently let her hair down at a screening in New York City (right).

She may be the best looking in the Roy family, but ...

The question is ...

"Old Streets" rapper 2KBABY isn't letting his face tat critics stop his grind ... if anything they're motivating him ahead of the release of his "Scared 2 Luv" album.

We caught up with 2KBABY this week ... fresh out the tattoo parlor, of course, where he added even more ink to his face -- including a pair of hearts and the album title on opposite sides of his face.

Despite the hearts, 2K didn't get much love from the fans, just a lot of noise from the haters ... and he tells TMZ Hip Hop the reactions tested his patience a bit.

Call it a colorful act of defiance, but 2K says he'll keep pushing the limits of his body art -- he does NOT care about pain, and actually had some words for rappers who use numbing creams while getting tatted.

As for fan reactions -- he says he'll be watching to see how many of his 600K followers are down for the long haul. Everyone else is invited to dine on his genitalia ... although, he used slightly more colorful words.

Less aggressively, the Louisville-born rapper told us 'S2L' will be a collection of cinematic songs ... reflecting his life experiences and delivered in audio format.

Behind this scooped-out shot is a musician from Fort Lauderdale, FL ... and although he may tend to stay out of the public eye ... he doesn't shy away from performing alongside some of the music industry's biggest stars.

In 2011, he performed at the "Think Pink Rocks" concert with Mac Miller, Sean Kingston, Asher Roth and Flo Rida. And just when you think he couldn't keep up with some of the best ... think again! He scored gold when Simone Biles played the love interest in his "Overnight" music video.

Tommy Lee is going where many others have gone before him to show a little skin -- namely, OnlyFans ... where TL suggests he'll post penis pics and then some.

The Mötley Crüe drummer was performing in Vegas Friday night -- the final stop on the band's tour -- and at one point, he made a little speech to the crowd ... saying he was kinda bummed his explicit photo was taken down by Instagram, so he found a solution.

The answer, it seems, is to head to OF -- where Tommy says you can post what you want without any fear. He then showed off the goods ... not his front side, but the back.

Indeed ... the words "Only" and "Fans" were plastered across his ass for the whole world to see.

Tommy took to IG soon afterward to confirm he had in fact started an account, posting a similar shot of his butt and adding this caption as well ... "You heard it here tonight www.onlyfans.com/TommyLee 😜 cum join me over there for fun that Instagram won’t let us have here!" He also added some pics of his wife, Brittany Furlan --  maybe as a tease?

Many will recall ... Tommy threw up a nude about a month ago out of nowhere, which took the internet by storm. He later said he did it in drunkenness -- but now, it sounds like he wants to throw up more. He'd be far from the first celeb to jump over to the sultry site.

Halle Bailey finally showed the world what she looks like as Ariel in "The Little Mermaid" reboot, but per usual -- Twitter's found a way to ruin it ... by tearing down Jodi Benson.

Here's the deal ... Disney dropped the new 'Little Mermaid' trailer Friday, and while most everyone was in awe of the first look at Halle under the sea -- some couldn't help but draw comparisons to the original voice actor who played Ariel back '89 ... that'd be JB.

Some were grabbing clips from the animated film, including iconic singing parts, and putting them up side by side with Halle's -- going on to mock Jodi's performance, by saying she sounds "a little flat."

There was more mocking ... including folks posting shots of Halle's Ariel next to the animated Ariel and noting that HB has a ton of Grammys noms, while cartoon Ariel (aka, Jodi) had zero. FWIW, 'The Little Mermaid' did in fact win a handful of Grammys at the time.

Bottom line though ... they're besmirching the iconic work Jodi did all those years ago.

There was also someone who was trying to create drama between these two ... which appears to be completely manufactured. They posted a screenshot of what looks to be a post on Jodi's IG story, showing a photo of animated Ariel with the caption, "Love my Ariel."

The Twitter user who grabbed this is trying to make it seem like Jodi posted this in response to the trailer coming out -- and as a shot at Halle, but that's not the case ... it's an old post.

Fact is, Jodi has been nothing but supportive over Halle's casting -- something a good handful on the bird app noted as they tried to shut down this anti-Jodi narrative building among rabid Halle stans. The question ... why can't we celebrate each woman's take???

There's been some racist uproar over the fact Halle, who's Black, was cast at all in this role -- and now, this response seems to be extreme opposite reaction -- at the expense of Jodi.

Harrison Ford doesn't tear up much, but for his new 'Indiana Jones' movie -- he did just that ... promising it'll leave an impression.

The legendary actor was on hand Saturday during the D23 Expo, where the Mouse House is showing off a ton of projects they got in the works ... and the fifth installment to the beloved franchise was among the most highly anticipated.

Word is, they showed the first trailer for 'IJ5' ... and right afterward, HF came out on stage himself to talk to the crowd which had packed the place. It was here that he got emotional.

Check it out -- Harrison says this latest turn as Indy packs a punch, and not just that ... but he says it has a lot of heart, just the originals did. While saying this, the dude seemed to get a little choked up -- to which the audience responded positively with cheers and applause.

He also shouted out his costar, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who's also in the flick -- saying she's a big reason why this one rocks. As he puts it, 'Indy 5' will "kick your ass."

Also of note ... Harrison says this is gonna be his last outing as the titular character, telling the crowd this is the last time he falls down for us. The guy's literally 80 years old, so ... totally understandable.

In any case, sounds like this will be one you can't miss.

William and Kate appear to have extended an olive branch to Harry and Meghan -- inviting them to Windsor Castle to take in the public tributes for the Queen.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were on hand Saturday, standing shoulder to shoulder with the new Prince and Princess of Wales as they stepped out and observed the scores of flowers and cards left by commoners outside the palace gates ... and there were a lot.

Each couple bent down and got a closer look at what the Brits had left there ... and they all seemed to be in harmony, not too distant and definitely showing solidarity in their mourning.

It's quite a sight, considering things haven't been all that great between Harry and William of late -- evidenced in the fact that they hadn't even seen each other immediately prior to the Queen's death ... when PH and MM were in and around the U.K. within a stone's throw.

Still, it appears they've put their differences aside at this most crucial time and are finally together. The crowds loved to see it too -- Harry and Meghan were especially getting a lot of attention as they shook hands and greeted folks.

Swedish House Mafia had their fans dancing in the pouring rain, despite their team begging them to cut things short in order to save millions of dollars worth of equipment.

The DJ trio sold out Banc of California Stadium Friday in LA while the rain poured down for almost the entire show. Sources close to the group tell us their team begged the guys to end things early on several occasions in order to preserve equipment, but they insisted to keep playing for their fans.

We’re told as a result, millions worth of audio and stage design equipment will need to be repaired or entirely replaced.

SHM has been rocking shows across the US over the last few weeks, and LA was the biggest outdoor show they’ve done on tour … they even added more effects for the venue.

Of course, the group headlined closing night of Coachella earlier this year, after dropping their album “Paradise Again.”

A$AP Rocky won't pass on the opportunity to dap someone up -- even if that means he's gotta do it right above the mother of his child, Rihanna, from down below.

That's exactly what happened early Saturday morning in NYC, where the couple (and new parents) were hanging out at a joint called the Canary Club in downtown Manhattan -- where we're told they hung out for about an hour and enjoyed themselves with friends.

Speaking of pals, AR seems to have ran into an old one on the spot -- we got video of him greeting a good buddy of his, whom he appeared genuinely surprised and happy to see.

The next part is a little awkward, just 'cause he goes for a handshake/hug -- but does it right over RiRi ... and the other guy damn near almost takes a tumble onto her, seated directly underneath them both. The scene is funny to watch, because at one point ... Rihanna actually grabs A$AP's waist, as if to tell him -- "YO, WHAT THE HECK?!"

Rocky eventually pulls away and introduces the friend ... and that was that. He and Rihanna left together as if nothing had happened, so it was all gravy in the end.
