Jamie Lynn Spears is going home after "Dancing with the Stars" judges and fans showed her the door in just the second round of this season's competition.

The former "Zoey 101" star came up short -- relative to her fellow dancers -- on Tuesday night's show, she and her partner, Alan Bersten, were eliminated after falling into the bottom 2 of the night, along with ex-football star Adrian Peterson.

Jamie Lynn's nixing certainly came as a shock to the judges, who gave her a 16 out of 30 for their cha-cha routine. Derek Hough even called the elimination "a shocker." He also said earlier in the night that their moves were "a big improvement from last week."

As we reported, Jamie Lynn performed the tango last week, getting 15/30 in her 'DWTS' debut. Her mom, Lynne, was cheering for her on the sidelines ... while her sister, Britney, was absent -- as expected -- and completely unmentioned on the show.

We learned Britney was given a heads-up that her little sis was going to be on season 32 of the competition series, and she actually took the news pretty well. Brit's ex-husband Kevin Federline said he was rooting for Jamie Lynn all the way from Hawaii! No word if he actually cast a vote for her.

Sources close to production told us Jamie Lynn was able to rehearse at a studio near her home in Tennessee before the show began last week ... making it easy for her to balance her dancing with being a mother of 2.

Silver lining, she's able to return to full-time mommy mode now that 'DWTS' is behind her.

An annual homecoming event at Morgan State University was marred by violence Tuesday after five people were shot and injured on campus -- and at least one gunman is still at large.

The bullets started flying in the evening after the crowning of Mister and Miss Morgan State, which happens every year at the historic Black college in Baltimore, Maryland, around this time.

Baltimore PD said officers were patrolling the grounds when they suddenly heard a burst of gunfire as attendees of the event were emptying out of an auditorium at the Murphy Arts Center to go to a coronation ball in another building nearby.

Cops warned there was an active shooter loose around the arts center and one of the dormitories -- and issued an order for everyone to shelter in place.

Moments later, officers responding to that area stumbled upon the shooting victims -- four men and one woman between the ages of 18 and 22.

The victims, four of whom were students, were rushed to a local hospital, where they were treated for non life-threatening injuries.

A SWAT team searched high and low for the gunman but came up empty-handed, as police officials noted there could be more than one assailant still on the run.

Cops also determined there was no longer an active shooter on campus and lifted the shelter in place order by early Wednesday morning.

Brian Austin Green says raising his gay son felt like he was navigating uncharted waters ... but he's making it clear he's got no issues with anyone's sexuality, and he's calling out anyone who feels otherwise.

The former "Beverly Hills, 90210" star opened up about raising his now 21-year-old son, Kassius, on Lance Bass' podcast, "Frosted Tips"' ... saying the situation was all new to him, but it was a challenge he welcomed with open arms.

Lance couldn't help but compliment the actor, claiming it's gotta be a blessing to have Brian as a dad, especially growing up gay.

Brian said there really aren't a lot of differences between gay and straight kids, and it bugs him when other people say they do have a big problem with gay people.

Brian's adamant that someone's preference when it comes to partners isn't a big deal -- a revelation he's, in part, attributing to his relationship with Kassius ... and he says he's been trying to make others see it the same way as him.

Martina Navratilova was clearly furious with an interview Interior Secretary Deb Haaland did with a drag queen earlier this week ... panning it as a "pathetic parody of women."

Haaland's video with Pattie Gonia -- an environmentalist who's described herself as a "professional homosexual" in the past -- was posted to the politician's X page on Monday in order to celebrate LGBT History Month.

In the clip, Haaland can be seen talking with Gonia outside of the Stonewall National Monument in New York City in an effort to highlight its importance to American history.

Navratilova, however, was obviously not a fan of the content ... going after it with a scathing tweet on Tuesday.

"Is this a joke?" the 66-year-old tennis legend wrote. "The pathetic parody of women continues."

When one fan responded, "Butch lesbians always faced the same derision. 'Not really a woman.' We should all embrace each other. And this is a drag queen, not a trans person. They're certainly not trying to pass for female!" -- Navratilova immediately fired back with another tweet.

"And how exactly are we supposed to know the difference?" she wrote. "And please do not compare males to butch females. Thank you."

Navratilova -- who is openly gay -- did not expound on her issue with the video further.

Joanna Krupa is a single woman again in the eyes of the law, 'cause her divorce has been finalized ... and it sounds like a net zero for both her and her now ex-husband.

The former 'Real Housewives' star settled up with Douglas Nunes -- who initially filed for divorce earlier this year ... following 5 years of marriage. Now, thanks to a California court, they're both free to go on their merry ways.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, the terms of their split are pretty equitable -- at least based on what's public ... including child support, spousal support, etc.

They will share joint legal custody ... the breakdown of physical custody was not disclosed in the docs. Neither will receive child support. They both waived spousal support.

The division of assets is not laid out in the docs.

Joanna has officially 86'd her married name ... her OG surname has been restored -- Krupa.

Dramatic video captured the moment a small plane fell from the sky in Oregon, crashing into a home and killing two people onboard while seriously injuring a third.

Check out the footage ... which shows the aircraft plunging to the earth as it spirals through the air Tuesday night.

The man filming the clip is clearly shocked by what he's seeing, repeatedly saying, "Yo, what the f**k!!"

Eventually, the single-engine plane disappears from our view and ends up slicing through the roof of a house in the city of Newberg, about 25 miles southwest of Portland.

Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue says 3 people were on the flight and two died at the scene while the other was airlifted to a local hospital with severe injuries. Everyone inside the house was safely evacuated.

Fox 12 Oregon reported the plane took off from Hillsboro Flight Academy approximately 20 miles away. The school trains its students to become professional airline pilots.

Machine Gun Kelly got into a heated confrontation with DJ Kerwin Frost on the side of the road ... and the pointed exchange is all on video.

A witness tells us MGK was riding shotgun in a Rolls Royce in Sherman Oaks Tuesday when his driver pulled over ... allowing MGK to hop out and confront Kerwin, who was riding an electric bike.

In video, obtained by TMZ, MGK gets in Kerwin's face as he tries to ride off on his bike, blocking his path and leading to some verbal sparring ... though it's unclear what either was saying.

Ultimately, cooler heads prevail ... and the two sit down on a curb to talk things out.

We're told MGK then got back into his car, and Kerwin hopped back on his bike ... and they both went their separate ways. It's unclear what happened leading up to the confrontation ... or if MGK and Kerwin have any sort of beef.

Rep. Nancy Pelosi says she's getting the boot from her Capitol office as a new pro tempore Speaker ascends to power -- and the eviction comes at a really inconvenient time.

The former Speaker of the House announced late Tuesday she'd gotten an email from Rep. Patrick McHenry's office -- this after he was named the GOP's interim Speaker following Kevin McCarthy's ousting -- which told her to beat it by Wednesday.

The email reportedly reads, "Going to reassign h-132 for speaker office use. Please vacate the space tomorrow." McHenry's camp is also apparently threatening to rekey the room.

The problem ... Pelosi isn't even in D.C. right now -- she's in Cali mourning the death of her close friend Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who just died last week. Pelosi's pretty peeved about being evicted, calling the move a "sharp departure from tradition" -- noting she'd given other ex-Speakers in the past their own office spaces for as long as they wanted.

She also notes she won't be able to retrieve her belongings in time seeing how she's on the West Coast and won't be back in D.C. for at least a couple days. Pelosi says this is petty.

She says, "Office space doesn’t matter to me, but it seems to be important to them. Now that the new Republican Leadership has settled this important matter, let’s hope they get to work on what’s truly important for the American people."

FWIW, Pelosi is among a select few members of Congress who had extra offices -- in addition to the one she's getting kicked out of ... she has a main one in the Cannon House office building, where the fire alarm got pulled over the weekend by a fellow Dem.

Taylor Swift has a chance to make it 3 consecutive trips to see Travis Kelce's games, and the Mayor of Minneapolis is leading the cheers for her to do so this coming weekend ... TMZ has learned.

Mayor Jacob Frey tells us he and the rest of the city are ready to welcome TayTay with open arms this Sunday, which is when the Kansas City Chiefs play the Minnesota Vikings for an afternoon match-up -- he even has an on-the-nose message to encourage her.

Frey says, "We know All Too Well the positive impact Taylor Swift has on the cities she visits -- Minneapolis is no exception."

The Mayor has fond memories of her tour stop in Minneapolis earlier this year, adding ... "Her two, sold-out concerts at U.S. Bank Stadium in June led to a record-setting tourism weekend including booked-up hotels and packed downtown restaurants... boosting our local economy beyond our Wildest Dreams."

Here's how you know Mayor Frey has his fingers crossed ... "If Taylor chooses to come back to Minneapolis [sometimes known as Swiftieapolis] this weekend, we’ll be Ready For It. It’s possible she will have to console Travis Kelce after the Vikings beat the Chiefs, but there are plenty of great spots across town for them to go on a date and lift their spirits!"

FWIW, the Swiftieapolis thing is real ... they literally changed city's name (if only for a short time), so yeah -- with his clear knowledge of Taylor's catalog -- it's fair to say Hizzoner's a full on Swiftie.

Fact is, every NFL city would feel this way ... as Taylor's proven to have massive appeal in terms of media attention, and consumer spending across multiple industries, that usually translates to more traffic ... and oftentimes, more moolah, too.

The 2 NFL games she's attended have turned out to be a ratings bonanza for Fox and NBC, the networks that televised them. Next week, it's CBS's turn and it sounds like Mayor Frey wants to get in on the action as well.

The man alleged to have kidnapped 9-year-old Charlotte Sena doesn't have many defenders in his corner -- including his own flesh and blood, who says the guy should die.

Craig Ross Jr.'s adult son, Joshua, was at Ross' upstate NY home in Porter Corners Monday -- the same place investigators visited -- and actually talked on camera about how he feels about the entire case.

Shockingly, Joshua completely disavows his father, saying he and his sister want nothing to do with the guy -- and couldn't care less if he dropped dead tomorrow.

Joshua has, even more, to say beyond that ... watch the clip for yourself, it's pretty brutal.

One thing that's clear from his sentiments -- the relationship between Ross Jr. and his kids is strained, and they're distancing themselves from him by a mile and a half ... especially in light of what he's been accused of carrying out.

Remember, cops took Ross Jr. into custody overnight and charged him with first-degree kidnapping -- among other crimes -- in connection to Charlotte's days-long disappearance.

Charlotte vanished into thin air during a camping trip with her family -- this after she was last seen on a bike ride in Moreau Lake State Park. A massive search got underway when she never returned for dinner ... and fortunately, she was found safe and sound on Monday.

As it turns out ... cops say Ross Jr.'s own ransom note led to his capture -- with DNA leaving a direct trail to his location -- and the police ended up finding the girl in a kitchen cabinet within his remote camper in Milton, NY.

"Love is Blind" star Ismael "Izzy" Zapata's engagement to the woman he met on the hit Netflix series looks to be in jeopardy because she isn't the woman who joined him during a recent stop at a tattoo shop.

If you're a fan and haven't seen the new season yet ... here's your spoiler alert!

Now, witnesses tell TMZ ... Izzy and a mystery female companion were at Hermosa Ink Collective Monday in Hermosa Beach, CA. We're told it seemed like they were together on a date, and at one point, Izzy rested his hand on her leg.

Izzy also shared some pics Monday on Instagram, showing himself grabbing a drink and downing some pizza in Hermosa Beach ... but he left the woman out of all the images.

We should note -- Izzy's wearing the same outfit in his IG shots as he wore to the tattoo shop, so it seems like a good bet the unknown woman was taking the photos for him.

Izzy's date is significant because fans of the show know he and Stacy Snyder are 1 of the 2 remaining couples from the pods currently on the show ... and on last week's episode, Stacy's dad, Dale, grilled Izzy about his intentions in their relationship.

If Travis Kelce starts going off in the next couple weeks, John Salley says Chiefs fans can thank Taylor Swift for it ... telling TMZ Sports he believes a committed relationship with the pop star will help the tight end's game tremendously.

As for why ... the four-time NBA champion says it's simple -- Kelce spending his time with just one woman going forward this year will free him up to focus way more on ball.

"He now doesn't have to worry about 100 DMs," Salley told us out in Los Angeles this week, "or making sure certain girls got tickets. He can be focused, right?"

"So, he has practice, go to sleep, talk to his girl. That's easier than when you get to be the playboy that he used to be."

And, if for some reason Kelce even thinks about straying from a relationship with the "Love Story" crooner ... Salley made it clear he believes there's just no way her fanbase will let it happen.

"You can't do that," the former Lakers center said with a smile. "Those Swifties got cameras!"

Of course, it's unclear if Kelce and Swift are even looking for something serious ... while the two obviously have some sort of romance brewing -- there's no indication yet whether boyfriend/girlfriend labels are on the horizon.

Before this girl in pink voiced Beaver Girl in the film "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs," she was hitting the ice skating rink and growing up as a child actress in Los Angeles, California with her two older sisters.

She starred in "The Kissing Booth" films alongside Jacob Elordi, and when she's not reading over her scripts ... you can find her on the 'gram sharing some cool shots with her 19 million followers. She's currently gearing up for her role in Netflix's "A Family Affair" which is set to drop in 2024.

Krayzie Bone says he spent 9 days fighting for his life in a hospital ... literally.

The Bone Thugs-N-Harmony rapper just posted a picture from his hospital bed on social media, and he's thanking God for being alive.

Krayzie says ... "Just fought for life Literally for 9 days straight. And I only won the battle this time because I know Jehovah God was with every step of the way fighting for me."

As we reported ... Krayzie needed at least two surgeries to address internal bleeding, which he now says was threatening his life.

KB was hospitalized last month after he started coughing up blood ... so doctors ran some tests and discovered a bleeding artery in one of his lungs ... and he twice went under the knife.

When Krayzie was in the hospital, tons of celebs and sports figures wished him the best ... and he says he's thankful for all the prayers.

Cops say surveillance video shows the moment an 11-year-old youth football player shot two of his teammates during an altercation at a practice in Florida on Monday ... and the footage is shocking.

In the clip, you can see a boy race to a vehicle in a parking lot, grab a gun from the passenger-side seat, and then fire on another boy who had his back turned.

Seconds later, you can see a woman grab the firearm from the kid's grasp ... before appearing to chastise him in the parking lot.

According to cops, the incident happened at around 8:20 PM at the Northwest Recreation Complex football field in Apopka ... after the 11-year-old and two other 13-year-old youth football players had gotten into an argument. They say when the child fired off the single round, it hit the others -- catching one in the upper body while clipping another in the arm.

Both boys are expected to recover from their injuries ... a surprising revelation, considering how frantic a woman was in a 911 call placed just seconds after the shot went off.

In the audio, you can hear a woman claiming to be the mother of one of the boys asking for medical help repeatedly after she says her son was shot in the back.

Cops say when officers got to the scene, they arrested the 11-year-old. They added that he's since been charged with one count of second-degree attempted murder.

"Nobody wants to arrest an 11-year-old, by any means," Apopka police chief Mike McKinley said of the matter during a press conference on Tuesday, "but based on our investigation we feel those charges are warranted."

Kylie Jenner's mega-mansion is beginning to take shape ... getting a roof and true layout years after construction on the massive project first began.

Kylie's 5 acres of land finally has the full structure visible, sitting on top, with what might be a large garage attached to the side. Obviously, there's still a lot of work to be done, but progress is progress.

Kylie first scooped up the property in 2020 for $15 million, and work began early '21. When everything is all said and done, it will reportedly have 15 bedrooms, as well as an infinity pool, an underground garage and a sports court.

As for her neighbors, Will Smith is super close, as are sisters Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe as well as her mom, Kris Jenner.
