Tori Spelling's mom Candy says she's in her daughter's corner when it comes to her ending her marriage with Dean McDermott ... and Mama Spelling tells us her kid is doing ok.

We got Candy outside Hermes in Beverly Hills Friday with "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" star Josh Flagg, and she makes it clear -- she will ALWAYS have her daughter's back, especially as she and Dean go their separate ways.

Candy acknowledges that includes helping out financially if needed. As you know, Tori, in the past, has had some financial problems.

Josh, who said he watched Candy & Tori mend their relationship last year, is hoping this split sticks, telling us Tori's someone that deserves to live a happy life ... and having Dean out of the picture, according to Josh, is how that can now become a reality.

You'll recall, things were once tense between Tori and her mom when her dad Aaron Spelling died in 2006 -- when he left Tori a sliver of his $500 million estate. Candy's also had a hard time accepting her relationship with Dean, who married Tori that same year.

As we reported, Dean broke the news last month on social media, saying he and Tori "decided to go our separate ways, and start a new journey of our own."

Manson family killer Leslie Van Houten's recent whiff of freedom will not be snuffed out by California Gov. Gavin Newsom ... he says he won't appeal her upcoming parole.

Newsom's office announced the decision in a Friday afternoon news dump, saying the governor would not challenge an earlier appeals court decision clearing the way for Van Houten's release.

73-year-old Van Houten has been in prison for decades ... after being convicted for the August 1969 stabbing murders of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca.

Newsom's office says he's reversed her parole grant three times since taking office and he's disappointed the appeals court ruled for her to be granted parole. The governor claims he would be unlikely to succeed in challenging her release this time.

Remember ... Van Houten claimed she was immature and brainwashed by Manson as a 19-year-old when she stabbed the LaBiancas to death in their Los Feliz home.

Britney Spears' Vegas trip was filled with drama this week, and the clock is ticking for Madonna to decide whether to perform or postpone. So we gotta ask ...

Dennis Rodman's girlfriend says the NBA legend's new face tattoo featuring a portrait of her was not her idea at all ... explaining to TMZ Sports that when he first told her he wanted to get it, she thought he was "crazy!!!"

Rodman and his GF, Yella Yella, spoke all about the new artwork roughly 24 hours after the former Bulls star got it done ... and the two made it clear to us, The Worm wasn't influenced by anyone other than himself when he decided to get the ink put on his cheek.

"I actually told him not to do it," Yella Yella said. "I'm like, 'What're you doing!'"

Rodman, though, said he was full-go on the idea once it popped into his head ... explaining, "This is my last dance with a woman."

"She's very lovely," he added. "And I thank her for loving me the way I am -- and that's why I did it for her."

Yella Yella says initially Rodman wanted the portrait to be even bigger than what it ultimately ended up being ... leading her to call him both "crazy" and "a wild boy."

Cardi B can entertain and rap for days, but even when she's not onstage ... this gal always slays! Take a mental picture of this side-by-side pic, and try your best to find the changes in the two shots.

The hot momma of two was recently in Paris for Paris Fashion Week and put her curves on full display in a skintight catsuit. Put your "Money" where your mouth is, and see if you've got what it takes to find the minor switch-ups. You may need all hands on deck!

Lena The Plug says the ridicule her husband Adam22 is facing after she filmed a porn scene with another dude is absurd ... and she's defending his honor, insisting he's the opposite of a "simp."

We got Lena in L.A., outside Whole Foods, and she says while she's mostly been getting praise for shooting her first scene with Jason Luv, Adam's become the butt of the joke ... and she says her man doesn't deserve that kinda slander.

Lena believes there's a big double standard at play here, telling us she and Adam have had hundreds of threesomes with other women and no one had any problem with that.

However, she did cop to having mixed feelings about Adam watching her romp with Jason.

FYI, Lena and podcaster Adam22 do the "Plug Talk Podcast" together, where the couple interviews a woman and then hooks up with her. They've been doing that for years, but this is the first time Lena has ever filmed with another dude.

The timing of Adam being comfortable with her sleeping with another man is so interesting... because the two just got married a few months ago in Italy.

Regardless, Lena says she's seen a spike in profits on her OnlyFans after the encounter, adding her first-ever scene with someone other than Adam is something her fans have been begging for, and it doesn't sound like this will be the last time.

As we reported, Adam was getting called "Simp of the Year" after Lena teased her scene with Jason, and he even spoke out last weekend about why letting his wife film with a fellow adult film star was a great career move.

Danny Bonaduce's unloaded his Seattle home while he recovers from a brain procedure ... and it took him less than a month to find a buyer for the pad.

According to property records, Danny's place sold Monday for $1,500,000 ... which is $100,000 under the listing price.

TMZ broke the story ... Danny put the home on the market in early June for $1.6 million, telling us the property became too dangerous for him to navigate while he coped with his health issues.

Danny had surgery last month for a condition called hydrocephalus ... a neurological disorder caused by a buildup of liquid in the brain, and he says recovery is going well.

DB tells TMZ ... "It's been almost a month since my surgery and my walking is already so much better. Exciting to see results, especially so fast. I've been back on the air for a few weeks. Doing great!"

As for Danny's former digs, the place is 2,178 square feet with 3 bedrooms and views of the entire city, including Seattle's famed Space Needle.

The place has a chef's kitchen, a huge walk-in closet, plus premium appliances and outdoor decks.

Danny previously told us the place just had too many rooms and stairs for him to safely navigate, considering his condition. He and his wife are now living in a downtown Seattle condo.

These summer studs have been ripping right into swimsuit season with their abs simmering in the sun. And, with months of preparation and going hardcore in the gym ... there seems to be a common theme amongst these Hollywood dudes: showin' off their rock hard bods!

Add some eye candy to your summer with actors, influencers, TV stars and more; all who have shown up, and boy oh boy are they showin' out ... the proof is in the pics, abs-olutely!

Putting your celeb knowledge on the line ... have you come prepared to identify which Hollywood hunk is in the bare-chested shot?!

Britney Spears and NBA phenom Victor Wembanyama have critically different accounts of what went down before his security guard slapped her, and video of the incident, obtained by TMZ, supports Britney's version.

Check out the video ... you hear Britney approach Victor outside Catch restaurant in Vegas Wednesday night, screaming in a British accent, "Sir, Sir!"

Britney reaches up and taps Victor on his left shoulder. This is important because Victor described Britney "grabbing" him. The video does not support that claim.

You then see Victor's security slap her hand and either his hand struck her face or he made contact with her hand and the force of impact caused her hand to hit her face.

Either way, you hear the slap. As the police said, it does not appear he struck her intentionally ... it was more him swatting her hand away.

Britney's glasses flew off, but she did not fall as she indicated.

After the slap, you hear Britney clearly upset, screaming, still in a British accent, "That's America for you. F*** you all!"

Britney and friends went to dinner after the incident ... where a witness tells us she seemed super pissed.

As we reported, the Metro PD has closed it's investigation and no charges will be filed against Victor's security.

Honey Boo Boo's dad was supposed to check in for some much-needed help to combat his prescription pill addiction at a rehab owned by Lamar Odom, but he's since gone MIA ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Lamar tell us Sugar Bear was scheduled to fly into Kansas Thursday night and begin treatment with Odom Recovery Group at the Gold Bridge Treatment Center for his serious issues. However, we're told he never got on that flight ... and he's giving the Odom group radio silence.

Our sources say Lamar and co. believe SB simply got cold feet, because first he told them he couldn't attend the rehab because of work, then said he couldn't go because he was in the hospital for another health issue.

We're told Lamar's team isn't giving up on Sugar Bear, and hope he'll change his mind on getting help -- but he's not been responsive in their efforts to get in touch.

As we reported ... Lamar purchased 3 rehab centers in California earlier this year, and he's built on that foundation ever since.

Kyle Richards is trying to set the record straight on her love life ... she says she's not single but is mum on rumors about her relationship with country music star Morgan Wade.

The 'RHOBH' star was gassing up her Range Rover in L.A. Friday when a paparazzo asked her about her relationship status.

Kyle says she's not living the single life. She says she's "very good friends" with Morgan, but would not address the buzz about the 2 in the wake of her separation from husband Mauricio Umansky.

There are lots of social media photos of Kyle and Morgan together ... Kyle's clearly a fan of Morgan's music, offering up her favorite song.

Kyle and Mauricio are calling BS on rumors they're divorcing after 27 years of marriage.

Kyle and Mauricio spent the Fourth of July together Tuesday ... posing for photos with his arm around her.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann have pulled off the seemingly impossible ... calling off their divorce despite weeks of nastiness between the two.

According to court docs -- obtained by TMZ -- both Kim and Kroy filed Friday to dismiss their petitions for divorce.

Our sources say the two are really getting along well at the moment, and want to figure out how to make things work out ... especially for the sake of their 4 young kids. We're told love was never an issue between the two, and they've got a solid core.

The filing comes only days after Kim, Kroy and their kids were seen attending church in Atlanta.

As we reported ... the divorce has been seriously contentious. Kroy's accused Kim of having a gambling problem, and she's said she feared for their kid's safety around Kroy because he smokes weed.

TMZ broke the story -- Kim and Kroy fell under serious financial hardships just before the initial divorce filing -- with a more than $1M bill to the IRS.

Ariana Madix says she's certainly in a better place now than a few months ago when it comes to Tom Sandoval and Raquel Leviss ... but that doesn't mean she can totally move on.

We got the "Vanderpump Rules" star leaving her soon-to-open sandwich shop, Something About Her, in West Hollywood Friday -- she admits she's feeling a lot happier now compared to how tense things were for her earlier this year.

As we reported, Ariana's joining the "Dancing with the Stars" cast for its upcoming season, and we chatted with her about that gig, too ... and she tells us she's gettin' her stretches in to prep ahead of the September premiere.

We also bring up a wild hypothetical -- asking her what she'd do if Tom or Ariana get on the competition series as well ... but she's got her doubts the show producers would even think to put her through that kind of ordeal.

Remember, "Vanderpump Rules" started filming its 11th season at the end of last month, with Ariana shooting a scene with her sandwich shop co-owner Katie Maloney.

Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld are having trouble keeping their mouths off each other in Mexico -- 'cause even at a lavish dinner earlier this week ... they were seen sucking face the entire time!!!

Just one day after the two put on a PDA show while taking a swim at their fancy Cabo resort ... the new couple was spotted getting in an oceanside meal -- and it, at times, got a little steamy.

In between bites, the two snuck in a bunch of kisses ... and there was even some heavy nuzzling and cuddling going on as well.

The NFL star and the "Starving" crooner have yet to publicly state they're an item ... but based on everything they're doing while on the out-of-the-country vacay, it's pretty clear this is more than just a fling.

The two were initially linked to each other back in May ... when they got a little snuggly at a sushi dinner -- and it seems things have certainly heated up since then.

It's celebration time for Da Brat, who just had a baby boy ... the end result of her first, and very eventful pregnancy!!!

The record-breaking rapper gave birth Thursday evening in Atlanta to a 7-lb, 20-inch healthy son, and she and her wife Jesseca "Judy" Harris-Dupart named their new arrival, True Legend Harris-Dupart.

Brat tells People she can't believe her son came from her while Judy says they pondered changing the child's name to "PERFECT" upon first impression!!!

Brat added, "Very appreciative for such a blessing of our bundle of joy. This journey has been more amazing than we could've ever imagined."

The couple just copped a new Tesla to assist with their expanding family -- should come in handy for some "legendary" road trips.

The Victor Wembanyama security guard accused of slapping Britney Spears during a wild incident in Las Vegas on Wednesday night will NOT be charged with a crime, cops say.

According to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept. ... an investigation into the allegations concluded on Friday morning -- and "no charges will be filed."

No further details regarding the police probe were revealed.

TMZ broke the story ... Spears had attempted to get Wembanyama's attention while outside of Catch restaurant in the ARIA Hotel -- but in an effort to keep the singer away from the San Antonio Spurs star, Wembanyama's security guard struck her in the face.

Spears claimed she was hit with such force, it rocked the glasses off her head ... and nearly knocked her to the ground.

She demanded an apology ... while her husband, Sam Asghari, said he wanted to see the guard punished.

For Wembanyama's part, he said he had no idea it was Spears who wanted his attention until several hours later.

The No. 1 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft also told reporters Thursday that the whole incident with the guard was kicked off because Spears "grabbed" him from behind.

Spears, though, refuted that claim ... and said she simply "tapped him on the shoulder."

Photos we obtained from inside Catch later in the evening show Spears was visibly agitated at her table -- and according to one eyewitness, she seemed to be in shock ... and, at one point, made a beeline for the bathroom.

Spears has yet to publicly comment on the results of of the police findings.
