Ex-WWE Superstar Mandy Rose I'm Making 'Life-Changing' $$$ ... Thanks To OnlyFans!!!

Amanda Saccomanno
BUSY BEE
TMZSports.com

Former WWE Superstar Mandy Rose says she's raking in the dough outside the squared circle... telling TMZ Sports she's super grateful for those supporting her "lucrative" OnlyFans career.

Rose -- real name Amanda Saccomanno -- was famously booted from Vince McMahon's org. back in 2022 after racy images from her former subscription site were leaked on social media.

But instead of letting the scandal take the wind out of her sails, Mandy has since gone full-send with her sexy content ... and when we spoke to her this week about her adult modeling career, she was over the moon about how successful her new venture has been.

"It's been amazing," Mandy said. "Financially, I have been doing really well. And honestly, personally and mentally, I've been doing amazing. I have so much more time to spend with my family and just get involved in more things that I never thought I'd get involved in."

Mandy said she appreciates the opportunity she had with WWE and thanks the promotion for everything it's done for her career ... but wants her fellow wrestlers to know it's not the "end all, be all."

As for O.F., Mandy loves how she's able to document all parts of her life and interact with her biggest followers ... and, of course, the money.

In fact, she tells us she's helping out her family with her income as they relocate their family business.

"It's been kind of life-changing, I must say ... I'm really blessed, but I will say that I have a lot of financial freedom right now which is really amazing. That's why I'm so grateful that I'm able to help my family right now and kind of rejuvenate their business they got going on, and just continue with my future."

"So, it's been pretty lucrative, not gonna lie."

There's more -- Mandy also talks about her wrestling career ... and those who love watching her in the ring will want to check out what she said!!

Alicia Keys This Girl Has the Tea!!! ... Files Trademark For 'Alicia Teas'

Alicia Keys is dipping her toes in the beverage game, but not booze ... the singer filed a trademark for her own lines of teas, and it seems to be inspired by a gift from Swizz Beatz.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Alicia's company, AK Worldwide, filed to lock up rights to the name, "Alicia Teas" for a line of teas -- an obvious pun on her own name that fits perfectly in the world of drinks.

And, here's the funny part -- it all seems based on a gift from her boo!

Swizz pulled out all the stops for AK's birthday in 2020, gifting Alicia her own personal line of teas ... something folks rarely get to unwrap on their big day.

Swizz even joked the line would eventually be sold in Starbucks stores worldwide ... so this could be a sign that fans of the coffee chain could be waking up with a daily dose of "Alicia Teas" pretty soon!

Viral Fighter Jet Witness That F-35 Could've Killed Me! ... Wants Those Responsible Held Accountable

The man who went viral for describing the "screeeech" a fighter jet made before crashing says the chances of his death were high ... and he wants the government to get to the bottom of what happened.

Randolph White
5 MINUTES OF FAME
TMZ.com

Randolph White, sitting alongside his wife, Carrie, tells TMZ ... he could've been killed by the missing F-35 jet that practically crash-landed in his South Carolina backyard on Sunday -- calling it a real "near miss."

He thinks officials and the military should go through a thorough investigation and find out what the hell went wrong ... and he even wants whoever's to blame to be held responsible for the potentially fatal catastrophe.

SCREEEEEEEEEEECH
WBTW News 13

As we reported, Randolph gained traction online for the hilarious way he described the fighter jet crashing nearby -- calling the sound it made something "between a screech and a whistle" before giving his own, wild impression.

BTW, Randolph gave us a new version of the sound ... and it's just as great.

Randolph tells us he's not all that interested in his internet fame, but Carrie and their kids sure are loving it! The guy admits he isn't used to his celeb status, but he'll take it.

911 AUDIO

FYI, 911 audio revealed the pilot ejected out of the aircraft and landed in someone's backyard ... apparently hurting his back. As you can imagine, the dispatcher was pretty confused about the rare call-in.

Still no word on what exactly went wrong, but Randolph thinks folks need to get to the bottom of it -- and that's coming from an A-lister like him!!!

Guess Who This Kid In Plaid Turned Into!

Before this smiling girl with her ponytail turned into a model and television host, she was just rockin' her plaid dress on the first day of school and growing up in Germany ... before moving to the United States back in the 90s.

You probably have seen her rockin' some angel wings over the years, as she was the first German model to become a Victoria's Secret angel. And, if you're still not sure who this kiddo is ... she tends to get in the middle of Howie Mandel and Sofia Vergara.

Can you guess who this cute kid is?

Writers Guild of America Reaches Tentative Agreement Amid Ongoing Strike Talks

UPDATE

7:55 PM PT -- The Writers Guild of America and the labor group representing studios and streamers have reached a tentative deal on a new contract ... according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The latest round of negotiations between the WGA and the AMPTP is said to be wrapping up soon ... with either an agreement to end the strike, or a signal to hit the picket lines again.

Leadership from both parties -- including a reported handful of high-profile CEOs from the major studios -- have been hashing out a new deal over the past several days ... which has crept into the weekend and into the wee hours of the night.

As of Sunday, reports say the AMPTP has given WGA its "best and final" offer ... a leaked line that hasn't sat well with normie members -- who are scoffing at the notion of that.

Basically, the WGA has to read all the fine print now and make sure they're good with the terms the studio bosses are offering ... and it sounds like the devil is in the details, as lawyers pore over the paperwork and go back and forth with union brass -- who, of course, speak on behalf of countless individuals who are currently on strike from East to West.

A lot of the nitty gritty pertains to money, AI and more guaranteed writers in writer rooms -- among other sticking points -- but the idea that these terms from AMPTP are the best they can realistically do suggests they won't come to the table for a while if WGA turns it down.

There's also this ... Yom Kippur -- the holiest of Jewish holidays -- is literally about to start come sundown Sunday ... and many have reported the AMPTP wants an answer before then.

Considering it's already past 6 PM PT right now ... something tells us this baby is gonna get kicked down the road and dealt with another day. Don't get us started on SAG-AFTRA ... which is on its own strike right now, and which isn't anywhere near a deal either.

As the clock ticks, everyone's waiting for a yay or nay ... and it's still crickets at this point.

Maluma Fan Throws Phone ... Stops for Major Tsk, Tsk Moment

092423-maluma-kal
FANS STRIKE AGAIN
TMZ.com

Maluma is the latest celeb to get something chucked at him during a performance -- but you gotta see how he dealt with it ... homeboy turned into a disappointed parent.

The Colombian singer was doing his thing at a concert Thursday in San Antonio ... cruising along just fine -- that is, until somebody near the front row hurled their cell phone at him, which made contact.

Fortunately, it didn't hit him in the head or anything -- looks like the phone just tapped his torso -- but the guy definitely noticed it ... and he completely stopped down.

Check out this footage, obtained by TMZ, that captures Maluma's reaction ... it's hilarious.

The dude comes over to the side of the stage, apparently IDs the perp and then gives 'em a big no-no finger wag -- the way a dad might to a toddler or something. The message is clear ... don't do that!!!

Now, for some context ... eyewitnesses tell us the reason the phone might've been tossed to him is because just moments earlier -- Maluma had actually grabbed another fan's phone and taken a selfie with it. Presumably, this person was trying to get something similar.

Get this ... we're told the phone actually stayed up there for the rest of the show -- unclear if it was returned. The thrower was allowed to stay, though, to finish out the concert.

'Selling the OC' Kayla Cardona Backs Brandi Marshall ... Alex Deserves Racism Flak

Alex Hall has been getting dragged after what some perceived as her trying to make a Black woman sound angry and unhinged -- and a fellow cast member says it's well-deserved.

We spoke to 'Selling the OC' star Kayla Cardona -- who's very familiar with what has fans up in arms now that Season 2 has officially come to a close ... with unsettled business between Alex and Brandi Marshall -- who got in a huge fight on the show.

Kayla Cardona
FACE THE CONSEQUENCES
TMZ.com

The drama between them all stems from Brittany Snow's ex, Tyler Stanaland ... and Brandi accusing Alex of being "messy" when it comes to pursuing him. It was a feud that simmered all season and eventually came to an ugly head during an argument in Cabo -- which was caught on camera and obviously aired on Netflix.

During that shouting match ... many felt Alex was hurling racist microaggressions at Brandi by suggesting she was going to swing on her and trying to paint her as violent. That didn't occur in the moment -- Brandi kept her cool -- but there was a lot of chatter after the fact.

Like we said, AH has been taking it on the chin on Twitter ... and in our convo with Kayla -- who was front and center for all of that during filming -- she says succinctly, "If the shoe fits."

Take a listen for yourself to see what she remembers from that day ... and what apparently happened off-camera too. Based on how KC describes it -- it sounds like things might've been even nastier behind the scenes.

When asked if she felt like the Oppenheim brothers should've stepped in to diffuse things ... she stops short of criticizing them specifically -- but the implication is that the production can, at times, be a little too toxic for everyone's comfort.

Jonathan Majors Calls Meagan Good 'Missus' ... Hinting at Marriage?!?

Jonathan Majors just dropped a major hint that he and Meagan Good might be husband and wife -- 'cause the dude called her something you really only say when you're married.

The actor was at the Black and White Gala in D.C. Saturday night -- which was hosted by the Congressional Black Caucus. Meagan was one of the key people speaking at this shindig -- and it looks like JM was backing her up on stage.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Meagan said she was happy to be there and to see so many Black faces come out for a positive cause. Toward the end of her brief remarks, she turned to Jonathan and said ... "Babe, you want to say anything?"

His response is telling ... Jon replied, "Y’all heard the missus, so that’s what it is."

The crowd's reaction was kinda two-fold ... they cheered with praise, but there was also a sense of ooh'ing and ahh'ing over what he'd just implied -- namely, that she's Mrs. Majors.

There wasn't any further elaboration from either Jonathan or Meagan, but people are off to the races online with the intrigue. Obviously, that'd be a huge deal if they were, in fact, hitched ... as they've only been together as a couple for a handful of months now.

While their relationship is seemingly fairly new -- they've been tied at the hip, both here in the States and abroad. We've seen Jon and Meagan jet-setting all over the world of late, and when it comes to his criminal case in NYC ... she's been right by his side there too.

Meagan has caught flak by some for standing by him amid disturbing allegations -- but she clearly feels he's an upstanding dude. Mind you, JM has claimed innocence from the start.

We've also seen Jon do the right thing in public amid this tumultuous time -- just the other week, he was out here in L.A. breaking up a fight between high school kids.

Adele More Wifey Talk in Vegas ... Are You Married or What???

092423_adele_kal September 2023
NOT A FOOTBALL WIFE
TMZ.com

Adele sure does love a good tease -- 'cause she keeps on suggesting she's a married woman again ... this time, the latest example includes her using a very special title.

The singer was doing her usual thing in Vegas Saturday ... chatting it up with guests during her residency show, and going on a random tangent. Here, she's talking sports -- American football, specifically, and how she just doesn't understand the game.

In video obtained by TMZ, she says her "partner" Rich Paul loves the NFL ... which is why she's now trying to get into the sport more -- despite her admitted ignorance of it.

At one point as she's talking here, Adele says she's "not the greatest wife when it comes to football" and it gets a laugh from the crowd. On its face, it sounds like she's indicating she and RP and happily hitched couple.

TikTok / @adeleslittleloveee

Remember, just a couple weeks ago ... Adele was referring to Rich as her "husband" -- this after she'd already sparked marriage rumors over a year ago when people noticed a book at her house titled "The Pauls."

Adele has yet to address any of this speculation, but it sounds like she's happy with the guy.

NASA Capsule Back on 🌎 w/ Asteroid Stuff!!! ... Years-Long Expedition

Humans are one step closer to figuring out the mysteries of the universe -- and it's all thanks to a NASA capsule that just got back with some space soil ... from a long way away!

The capsule was shot down from a larger mother ship spacecraft called OSIRIS-REx, which got launched into the sky a whole 7 years ago ... with the idea being that it'd travel billions of miles to reach a huge asteroid named Bennu, which while far ... it's still within reach for us.

NASA wanted to study debris from this asteroid, which is said to be very, very old. Scientists say the samples collected are going to help us understand more about our origins, not to mention other discoveries about our solar system and maybe even the galaxy at large.

It took a while, but the capsule finally touched down Sunday ... landing in a Utah desert, where NASA deployed helicopters as part of a recovery team. Seems they wanted to be extra careful with this thing -- even when they got back to the lab, it was hazmat suit galore.

As for what exactly the samples consist of ... it's mostly just rocks and dust, but considering it comes from an asteroid that likely traveled from a far distance, precaution is necessary.

While this is the first such asteroid mission for NASA, Japan's space agency has already beat us to it ... a couple different times, actually. Still, it's a major accomplishment for the U.S. -- and just another example of people venturing out into space more and more now.

With the samples back here on Earth, they'll now go to Texas for further study. NASA says it plans to reveal its findings sometime in October.

Super Bowl LVIII Usher to Perform at Halftime Show!!!

UPDATE

9:09 AM PT -- Usher said... “It's an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can't wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they've seen from me before. Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I'll see you real soon.”

And the Super Bowl Halftime winner is ... USHER!!!

Apple Music just made the big announcement, with the help of Kim Kardashian. If you believe in spontaneity ... you see Kim calling Usher for the big reveal. After all, she's now an actress!"

GETTING THE BIG CALL
Apple Music

Super Bowl LVIII will go down at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, in February 2024.

There has been no announcement of other singers ... organizers typically wait until closer to the event to announce who else will be performing.

As you know, last year Rihanna performed at the Halftime Show and did it alone. Remember, her big reveal was that she was pregnant with Riot!

Kourtney Kardashian's Poosh Malibu Mayor Erupts Over Event ... Says City Bent the Knee

UPDATE

9:55 AM PT -- An event attendee said that there were no more than 100 people attending the privately held wellness event for friends of Poosh.

Kourtney Kardashian is being indirectly blasted by the Mayor of Malibu -- who says folks working on behalf of her company appear to have gotten a rubber-stamped "A-OK" for a shindig in the 11th hour ... by none other than the City itself.

Mayor Bruce Silverstein laid it all out on Facebook Saturday -- detailing what he claims was a shady sign-off on a permit that allowed Kourtney's camp to host a private event at a home they rented in the Mayor's neighborhood ... which he later came to learn was tied to her Poosh brand.

092423_kourtnesy_karashian_kal
POOLSIDE POOSH PARTY

It's worth reading his post to get the full context of what he's alleging here, but essentially -- it amounts to preferential treatment that he says is far too often granted to the rich and famous of Malibu. This time, he says it just so happened to work out for a Kardashian.

As for what he's specifically fuming over ... Silverstein says when he noticed the event getting set up at this empty house next door this week -- with truckloads of crap getting unloaded -- he asked what was going on ... and says he was told it was an influencer event. The Mayor says he informed the organizers that they needed a permit for that sort of thing -- and then proceeded to follow up with City staff to see if that was actually happening.

We'll spare you all the details, but basically ... the Mayor alleges that the City approved a Special Events Permit for the event planners working on behalf of Poosh -- and he goes on to claim that it seems to have been green-lit in record time, and under what he claims are possible false pretenses ... as it pertains to what the event was described as, how many people would be attending, the setup/breakdown procedure and resident notice required.

And yet, the Mayor claims everyone appears to have just looked the other way on all of it -- and he suspects all of this was done to appease a high-profile resident of the area.

The Mayor says he's disheartened by this -- as he goes on to explain that the regular citizens of Malibu hardly ever get the red carpet rolled out for them for things they wanna do -- having to wait weeks for a permit, as he notes -- but for a celeb ... immediate turnaround. He also says these type of events are a huge headache for the normies -- both in a safety capacity, but also as a general nuisance when it comes to noise, traffic, etc.

Silverstein says this is part of a much larger issue that he aims to address soon at the next City Council meeting ... and while he certainly seems upset with Kourtney and/or the people working with her on this particular get-together, he's much angrier at the powers that be that he suggests are willing to bend the knee at a moment's notice ... a culture he's tired of.

A couple points worth noting ... Poosh documented their Malibu bash on social media (it's all over their IG Story) but it's not clear if Kourtney herself attended it. Silverstein doesn't say she did or didn't ... but he does sound angry that her brand was given a clear path to seemingly do what it wanted at the drop of a dime -- at least according to him, anyway.

One last nugget that's worth mentioning ... we've learned that the Poosh party was actually put together via a major PR agency (Harper Sloane) -- so Kourtney's involvement in this is truly unknown at this point. Yes, she's the face of the company -- but we have no idea whether she herself knew about this event or what her participation in it was, if any.

Nonetheless, the Mayor believes this has got to stop, and it sounds like he's not dropping it.

Alleged Police Brutality CA Deputy Body Slams Teenage Girl ... Caught On Video

092423_cop_bodyslam_kal
BODYSLAMMED BY POLICE

A California deputy was recorded committing alleged police brutality, body-slamming a teenage girl and nearly knocking her unconscious.

Disturbing footage of the terrifying ordeal was posted on Instagram late Friday night after Victorville PD deputies were called to squash a fight at Victor Valley High School earlier in the evening.

The video opens just after the deputy has hoisted the 16-year-old girl into the air, and then you see him aggressively throw her to the ground. Like a rag doll, her body goes limp.

People rush over to help her, including the photog ... the girl seems completely out of it and barely conscious.

A rep for Victorville PD tells TMZ ... deputies tried to disperse the rowdy group by firing pepper balls at them, but it didn't work.

The crowd then converged on the deputies as the girl tried to seize the pepper ball launcher.

That's when "the deputy pulled the female away causing her to land on the ground," according to police. Yet, the video clearly contradicts the PD's statement.

The teen was taken to a local hospital for treatment, but the extent of her injuries and her condition were not disclosed.

Cops said they arrested a 16-year-old boy for punching a deputy in the face and later booked him into a juvenile hall due to his age.

The D.A. is currently reviewing the matter to determine if charges are warranted against the boy -- and the girl.

Police brass would not comment on whether they're investigating the actions of the heavy-handed deputy, or if he would face any discipline.

Britney Spears Got Heads Up on Jamie Lynn Joining 'DWTS' ... News Well-Received

Britney Spears wasn't blindsided by her little sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, joining "Dancing With the Stars" -- in fact, she was fully aware and approved ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us, Britney got a heads up about JL appearing on the competition show before the news came out -- and we're told Britney actually took it well.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

No word on who exactly delivered the update to BS, but our sources say she was fully supportive of Jamie Lynn ... and, apparently, even excited for her sibling.

Now, again, we don't know who looped Britney in -- but whoever did clearly did so with their famous rift in mind, as they've had a rocky history. At times, Britney embraced her sister ... but, she's also trashed her. A lot stems from JLS's book last year.

The status of their relationship has felt a little iffy at times -- especially as Brit has continued airing grievances about her family at large on social media -- but after hearing this ... it would appear the Spears sisters are on somewhat good terms right now.

Jamie Lynn is getting seriously accommodated ahead of her time on 'DWTS,' which kicks off Oct. 10. She's been allowed to rehearse near her home in Tennessee, on account of the fact she's a hands-on mom of 2.

This, of course, isn't Jamie's first stint in reality TV either ... she was recently on FOX's "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test."

*NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, Destiny's Child We're Not Singing at Super Bowl LVIII ... Despite Fan Speculation

Fans have been thinking former groups *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, and Destiny's Child will all take the stage at this year's Super Bowl ... turns out, it's not gonna happen.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... despite rumors that the 3 iconic musical bands of the past will join forces for Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, it's just not the case.

We're told the groups haven't been approached to perform, and no conversations are going down to turn it into reality.

The internet's been going nuts after rumors spread about *NSYNC and Destiny's Child being slated to perform at next year's big game ... and the dream expanded to include the Backstreet Boys.

The nostalgia train has really taken off since *NSYNC reunited at the MTV VMAs and got back in the booth to record the first song in decades for the new 'Trolls' flick.

TMZ broke the story, *NSYNC has no plans to start a tour, residency, or album despite speculation, but that doesn't mean the Super Bowl is off the table, right? Wrong.

Cops: Julio Urias Alleged Dom. Violence Victim ... Bloodied After Incident

The woman who Julio Urias allegedly roughed up at a soccer match earlier this month had blood coming out of her nose following the incident ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports.

In addition, we're told the woman also had strangulation marks on her as well as redness on her face.

The alleged altercation happened on Sept. 3 at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles during the LAFC vs. Inter Miami match ... and our law enforcement sources say it appeared to all start after Urias had been taking photos with female fans at the venue.

We're told the woman who was with Urias got upset over the picture-taking ... and left early -- but as she was walking toward a gate, the Dodgers star came up from behind her, put his arm around her, slammed her against a fence, and pulled her hair.

Law enforcement sources tell us Urias then allegedly swung at her ... though it's not yet known if he landed a punch. We're told Urias' entourage then broke up the apparent scuffle -- but when Urias and the woman later got into a car service, cops say they were told something further may have gone down between the couple.

As we previously reported, Urias was arrested at the scene ... and booked on a felony domestic violence charge. He went on to post $50,000 bail.

Cops say they are still investigating the incident ... and we're told they're interviewing witnesses -- while looking for additional video of the alleged incident.

Since the arrest, the Dodgers have distanced themselves from the 27-year-old ... cleaning out his locker and wiping away his images from Dodger Stadium.

The MLB, meanwhile, has placed the pitcher on administrative leave while it investigates the allegations.

The left-hander -- who last pitched for L.A. on Sept. 1 -- had been up and down this season ... logging an 11-8 record with a 4.60 ERA.
