Mark Davis is apparently interested in exhausting every option to add to his massive fortune ... 'cause the Raiders owner was just seen hoping to score some cash on a slot machine at an airport in Vegas!!

According to one social media user, the billionaire got in the gambling sesh before the Raiders took on the Packers on "Monday Night Football."

His game of choice ... "Wheel of Fortune" -- but based on his reaction to the flashing lights in front of him, it doesn't seem like he was finding a whole lot of wealth.

But, if that was the case, Davis can certainly afford to take the hit ... after all, the 68-year-old is reportedly worth $2.3 BILLION!!!

It seems the slot machine play was all interrupted regardless when a lady friend arrived. She appeared to be the same person Davis sat with during the MNF game at Allegiant Stadium.

Mario Lopez is pissed that the Golden State is focusing on healthier candy instead of other issues he finds far more pressing -- and he's letting his followers know about it publicly.

The longtime 'Extra' host fumed over Governor Gavin Newsom recently signing AB 418 into law -- which has become known as the "Skittles ban" ... although that's a little misleading over what this actually requires in California going forward.

Essentially, the law requires companies selling food in the state to remove certain additives ... which CA now deems harmful. One of the big-ticket chemicals being targeted is Red Dye 3 -- prominently found in Skittles -- and corporations have until 2027 to get their act together.

That's not how it's been advertised though -- many are falsely peddling this new law as an outright ban of Skittles, and it seems ML got ticked off over a social media headline.

He writes, "Crime is through the roof, worst drug epidemic ever & homelessness at an all time high in CA… Let’s focus on Skittles." Mario's criticism actually got a lot of praise in the comments, with folks saying he was right to point out the priorities seem out of whack.

Others, however, noted that this is actually a good thing ... and will help keep Californians safer in the long run. There've been a number of concerns over these now-banned additives in food -- which were never approved by the FDA, to begin with -- including cancer fears.

So, in other words ... Mario can still have his Skittles if he wants 'em -- not that he looks like he eats much of them, anyway. Tasting the rainbow ain't going anywhere!

Do you think Gov. Newsom's new 'Skittles ban' is a good idea? Vote below.

Julia Fox says her relationship with Kanye West was all for show -- claiming she was used as a prop for Ye ... something she can now talk about 'cause she didn't sign a legal doc.

The actress/influencer spills the alleged beans in her new memoir, "Down the Drain," which just hit the shelves Tuesday ... and according to Page Six, she details her whirlwind romance with Kanye that lasted for just a couple months starting at the tail end of 2021.

Per JF, Ye first entered her life when a friend of hers asked to pass along her number to him ... apparently, he'd inquired about her. Once she connected with Ye, Julia says he called her dozens of times ... and that they talked for a long time, noting it was mostly him yapping.

Eventually, he invited her to join him for NYE down in Miami ... and flew her and her friends out, leading to their now-famous first public date. However, it sounds like their first face-to-face meeting actually happened at a club -- where they got touchy-feely pretty quickly.

During their initial in-club meeting in Miami, Julia says Kanye took her out to a parking lot at one point ... claiming he took a piss right there in public, spurring her to block and cover him from gawkers. Once he finished and zipped up, she says they made out hot and heavy.

The next day, at Carbone, Julia says Ye bluntly asked her to be his girlfriend and if she was cool taking their new union public -- it was at this point JF says she felt like the whole thing was a sham, considering photos of that exact moment were being snapped by a pap.

Shortly thereafter, Julia says she was asked to showcase several outfits arranged by Ye ... saying she felt like a "show monkey." During one of these fittings, she felt like a certain top didn't feel right -- to which Ye allegedly replied, "I'll get you a boob job if you want."

Julia says their pairing continued to feel manufactured ... saying Ye sent a bunch of photos of them to an outlet and asked her to write a blurb. She writes, "I feel like he’s using me in some weird, twisted game. It makes me feel dirty."

Eventually, they went to Paris -- which was memorable fashion-wise -- and she says they argued a lot there ... which even led to them getting chastised as a big shot party.

Once she was back in NYC, toward the end of it all, Julia says Kanye invited her and her friends to a hotel ... where he gifted them Birkin bags, something JF describes as feeling like a farewell present from him. She also says he made them recreate the opening sequence of the Birkin gifting video several times, and claims he made them pose for staged pictures. Again, more fakery.

BTW, in the midst of all this ... Julia says Kanye sent her an NDA to sign, which she never did -- and that finally came back to serve as the final nail in the coffin. She says he said they couldn't continue seeing each other if she didn't sign it -- and she was fine with that.

Kylie Jenner is getting support from Jewish organizations in America for her pro-Israel social media post ... and those same orgs are ripping those who shamed her into deleting that post.

As we've reported, Kylie shared and then deleted a post from StandWithUs on Sunday morning, following the deadly Hamas terrorist attack ... she reposted an image of the Israeli flag with the caption, "Now and always, we stand with the people of Israel!"

But, following tons of backlash in the comments, Kylie pretty quickly 86'd the post.

Roz Rothstein, co-founder and CEO of StandWithUs, tells TMZ ... while the org is pleased Kylie reposted their account in the first place, "It's a shame that some people cannot express themselves honestly because of intense pressure and intimidation by Hamas sympathizers."

Kylie was far from the only celeb expressing support for Israel in the wake of the 9/11-type terrorist attack ... Gal Gadot, Bono, Sarah Silverman, Jamie Lee Curtis, Amy Schumer, Madonna, Natalie Portman and Mark Hamill also came out strong for Israel.

The folks over at the American Jewish Committee say the now full-blown war between Israel and Hamas provides a moment where celebrity can be used for good.

AJC spokesman Richard Hirschhaut tells TMZ  ... Kylie "did the right thing and acted with her heart with her initial post" and she "should be applauded for speaking up and speaking out."

He says the exact opposite happened, as Kylie became "a subject of vicious and ugly scorn" ... but he hopes she puts the post back on her IG, because "the power of social media and the power of celebrity is desperately needed at this moment when Israel is at war and under attack by a terrorist organization that is barbaric, inhumane and immoral."

In addition to Kylie, the AJC is calling for "influencers across the spectrum to demonstrate moral courage and amplify moral clarity by supporting Israel's high moral ground."

The Jewish org says Hamas terrorists are using social media to show their "sheer barbarity" ... and it feels celebs with large followings should use their platforms to push back with messages of love, support and solidarity with Israel.

Mia Khalifa has kissed her deal with Playboy goodbye ... the adult entertainment brand dropped her after sharing her controversial thoughts about the Israel-Hamas attacks.

Playboy sent out an email to its subscribers Monday, after Mia expressed her pro-Hamas thoughts online -- the company said, "Mia has made disgusting and reprehensible comments celebrating Hamas’ attacks on Israel and the murder of innocent men, women and children."

It goes on to say the company encourages free speech and expression ... but adds, "We have a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech." Playboy says it's terminated its relationship with her, "including deleting Mia’s Playboy channel on our creator platform."

The former porn star-turned-influencer has been scrubbed from the company's Centerfold platform ... her page has been replaced with a simple "Not Found" graphic.

As we reported, Mia caught heat over the weekend, as Israel was being attacked by Hamas terrorists ... writing things like, "Tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal."

Despite the hate she got, Mia doubled down -- writing, "I’d say supporting Palestine has lost me business opportunities, but I’m more angry at myself for not checking whether or not I was entering into business with Zionists."

Wild scene at the famous Santa Monica Pier ... a man claiming to be armed with a bomb climbed the iconic Ferris wheel before ultimately being taken into custody.

The crazy scene played out Monday afternoon at the tourist attraction ... with cops saying it all started when the guy told folks he had a bomb on him, and then started climbing the carnival ride.

The Santa Monica Police Department says as the man scaled the Ferris wheel, he was shouting at officers down on the pier ... but they couldn't make out what he was saying as he hung out in the middle of the spoke.

Shocked onlookers watched in horror as a standoff ensued, and it didn't take long for helicopters to start swirling overhead.

The Ferris wheel stopped and folks who were on the ride became stuck ... and they had to be rescued by a Santa Monica Fire Department cherry picker truck.

About an hour into the affair, the guy started climbing down from his perch on the 85-foot tall ride ... appearing to communicate with law enforcement.

Savannah Chrisley looks like she's super into her new boyfriend ... because they were all over each other at a Zach Bryan concert, and wearing matching outfits to boot.

The "Chrisley Knows Best" star and her new boo, former college football player Robert Shiver, packed on the PDA at an Alabama rodeo Saturday .... kissing and hugging in the VIP section while Zach was on stage.

Throughout the show, Savannah kept a hand either on Robert's back or in one of his back pockets ... and he did the same with her.

Savannah also seems like one of those girls who love coordinating fits with their dude because she and Robert were rocking matching Zach Bryan merch.

This relationship is fairly new ... Savannah revealed last month she was talking to Robert, who is mainly known for 2 things ... playing football for Auburn University and surviving his ex-wife's alleged murder-for-hire plot.

The rodeo appeared to be a double date of sorts, too ... Savannah's younger brother, Grayson, was also there with his girlfriend.

Folks who wanna be Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce can play make-believe on Halloween -- and it's a lock that lots of people will do just that, much to the joy of one costume shop raking in the dough.

A rep for 3 Wishes, an online Halloween retailer, tells TMZ ... their Taylor and Travis-inspired getups this year are far and away the most popular costumes, as people snap 'em up in droves. So much so, they're completely sold out!

Customers have been able to double-dip a bit, up to this point -- 3 Wishes has had 2 different TS costume options ... a solo "Pop Star" one and a separate item that actually paired the pop star costume with a whole other football player outfit. Naturally, that's in the style of the Chiefs tight end ... right down to his jersey number.

Those were selling for $27.95 and $119.95, respectively, but now -- 3 Wishes says its inventory's been ransacked by fans wanting to resemble the new showbiz "it" couple. They had 500 of the solo TS costumes, and 300 of the duo costumes.

We're told the Taylor/Travis duo costume is their second-fastest-selling product in the company's history -- with their 'Tiger King' costume from 2020 still reigning supreme. 3 Wishes says they're out of stock right now, but will re-up on the 16th.

Drake is framing Joe Budden as a failed rapper, but KNXG Crooked says that's a low blow -- not just for Joe, but for all MCs who go on to use their expertise for hip hop commentary.

TMZ Hip Hop chopped it up with Joe's former Slaughterhouse bandmate in the wake of the "For All The Dogs" feud. While they weren't on the best terms when Slaughterhouse broke up, Crooked's surprisingly on Joe's side as he feels Drake's disses cut him just as deep!

Crooked acknowledges JB as a pioneer in hip hop podcasting -- alongside the late Combat Jack and incarcerated Taxstone -- and says Joe was well within his rights to criticize Drake's "For All the Dogs" ... just as much as Drake had the right to respond.

Drake told JB his stock pales in comparison because he owns a private jet compared to JB's "modest" house in New Jersey to shut him up, but Crook doesn't believe the beef is serious.

Crooked says Drake and Joe have a deep admiration for one another -- something he can attest to personally.

He harkened back on the days of Slaughterhouse touring, circa the top of the 2010s, and says Joe was actively listening to Drake on the tour buses. Crooked adds ... there's no need for Joe to dust off his MC mic going forward, as his podcast platform is mighty enough!!!

Asante Samuel says if Tom Brady came out of retirement and rejoined forces with the New England Patriots ... he'd almost certainly win his eighth Super Bowl this season.

"This terrible team that everybody sees is a terrible team," Samuel told TMZ Sports on Monday, Brady "can come right now, today, and win a Super Bowl for the New England Patriots. Because that's Tom Brady."

Samuel made the bold claim while discussing the state of the 2023 Patriots -- who, with a 38-0 loss to New Orleans on Sunday, are now just 1-4.

The former All-Pro said the bad losses are all further proof that Bill Belichick has largely been a failure when Brady is not under center for his teams. In fact, he said it's all showing that TB12 was the one most responsible for the Patriots' dynasties.

"I don't understand why is it such a big drop off when one man leaves the 53-man roster -- why is it such a big dropoff and you can't replace it but you're supposed to be a great coach?" Samuel said.

Samuel, who played for Belichick and alongside Brady from 2003 to 2007, added that he thinks Brady could solve all of this team's woes ... if he just simply showed up.

"I compare this team to the 2015 Super Bowl champions," Samuel said. "I see the same exact team -- it's only minus Tom Brady is the difference. And I can see Tom coming and leading this to the Super Bowl."

He continued, "My point in saying that is Belichick is a guy there that's not providing much for the team. And it's showing over and over and it's getting worse and worse."

Before this little guy -- hangin' with his pops at the pool -- turned into an MTV personality who's always up for a challenge, he was just working on his summer glow and growing up during the 80's in Boston, Massachusetts.

Making his first television appearance on "The Real World Paris" ... this blue-eyed dude has definitely gotten into some fist fights in front of millions, and you can definitely pick up on his Boston accent, especially when he's getting rowdy and ready to go head-to-head!

Need one more clue? Johnny Bananas might be able to help you out!

Shannon Beador is getting herself some treatment after her recent DUI bust ... but it's not preventing her from going on tour with her fellow 'Housewives of Orange County' castmates.

Sources close to Shannon tell TMZ ... she is taking responsibility and accountability for her arrest and is currently enrolled in an outpatient behavioral wellness program with an alcohol component.

We're told Shannon still plans on participating in her upcoming 'Tres Amigas' comedy shows with Tamra Judge and Vicki Gunvalson -- and although alcohol's been a big part of their act ... Shannon won't be drinking, and they're adjusting the show to focus more on their friendship.

TMZ broke the story ... Shannon was arrested last month over what cops say was a wild ride in her car that ended with her slamming into someone's Newport Beach home, damaging a concrete planter and nearly crashing through the front door.

Surveillance footage of Shannon's alleged drunken night shows her zipping through a residential area before crashing into the property.

Remember, cops on the scene say they found Shannon pretending to walk her dog before they booked her on 2 misdemeanors ... DUI alcohol plus hit-and-run.

Leida Margaretha, known from her time on "90 Day Fiancé," has been arrested ... after allegedly using her place of work to steal thousands of dollars.

According to cops in Portage, Wisconsin, they were notified last week by the owners of Loggerhead Deco -- a glass bottle decorating company -- that Margaretha made "fraudulent payments and withdraws to several outside business accounts and customers" using the company's account info.

Cops say some victims have reported several thousands of dollars missing from their accounts ... and Margaretha is now facing charges of Theft from a Business Setting, Forgery, and Wire Fraud Against a Financial Institution.

Police say she may be hit with additional charges as the investigation continues.

Fans of the show would have a hard time forgetting about Margaretha -- joining the cast in season 6, she moved from Indonesia to Wisconsin to live with her fiancé, Eric Rosenbrook.

Brody Jenner wouldn't settle for plain java when he ran out of his fave creamer -- instead, the guy opted for something sweet from his baby mama's breast ... a perfect replacement, for his taste!

The 'Hills' star raised eyebrows recently with a new video he and his pro surfer fiancée, Tia Blanco, uploaded, documenting their first month with their newborn, Honey, who's feeding on breast milk at the moment.

The reason that's relevant ... Brody filmed himself wondering if he could swap almond milk for boob juice, and then gave it a try alongside Tia -- who also indulged in a breast milk latte.

It sounds like BJ was quite impressed ... calling his special blend, "Delicious!" Tia, however, didn't think it was much of a game-changer -- saying it just tasted like a cup of Joe!

Either way, now dad knows how his baby daughter feels when she's filling up -- and BTW, breast milk is pretty freaking nutritious, obvi for infants, but Brody thinks it'll do his body good, too!!!

The soon-to-be-married couple welcomed Honey in July -- not long after they announced their engagement in June. Of course, with the news of their child came a very revealing video of their home birth.

Israel has U.S. citizens trapped within its borders, including a mother of 3 who is doing everything she can to keep her young children safe as the Hamas attacks continue.

Daniella joined us Monday on "TMZ Live" from Jerusalem, where she's been forced to stay put -- with her 9-year-old, 6-year-old, and 2-year-old.

She says she's one thousands of Americans who went to Israel to celebrate the Jewish holiday, Simchat Torah, but now airlines have canceled all flights out of the area as Hamas missiles continue to fly through the sky above them.

Daniella says her family is really on their own in Israel -- the U.S. Embassy is currently closed, and she's now frantically searching for other ways to get out of the country that don't involve taking a plane.

She also says she's repeatedly had to take her children into bomb shelters amid the attacks ... adding she's been struggling to explain to the little ones why their world has been turned upside down.

Jamie Foxx was in the mood for some late-night scares this weekend -- hitting up Universal Studios' creepy theme park after hours ... finding both fans and monsters.

The actor swung by Halloween Horror Nights Sunday, posing for a cool pic while standing around a bunch of the costumed actors, who seemed more star-struck than they did frightful. That might have to do with Jamie's stance here ... full-on bad ass mode!

Indeed, JF set the tone ... and the HHN crew followed, it seems. That's pretty different than how most guests get treated when they enter the spooky grounds -- usually, folks get followed around and terrorized by the employees ... and celebs aren't exempt.

BTW, Jamie wasn't the only famous face who was enjoying the evening ... other stars like Ariana Madix of 'Vanderpump' fame were in attendance with some pals, as was former "Euphoria" star Barbie Ferreriera and the great Nicole Richie. They all seemed to get the VIP treatment.

We'll probably see a lot more A-listers drop in over the next few weeks -- Halloween Horror Nights is a fall time tradition here in SoCal ... and that goes for Hollywood's elite too.

Now, whether they all get an awesome photo-op like this, though, remains to be seen.
