I ❤️ the '90s Celebs Get In On Yearbook Trend ... All Thanks to AI!!!

It's been looking like a completely different decade on social media lately, as users have flocked to throw themselves right back into the '90s ... and celebs are no exception.

Of course, we're talking about the Epik App -- which uses artificial intelligence to throw people's faces into a collection of stock image yearbook photos that are drenched with late 20th-century styles that reflect what high schoolers might've been wearing some 30-odd years ago.

This trend is all the rage right now ... and you better believe Hollywood is getting in on it too -- with some of the most recognizable faces getting cut and pasted into the past.

Just a handful of the stars who've given Epik a go ... Snoop Dogg, Heidi Klum, Keke Palmer, Nick Carter, Jessie James Decker, Julian Edelman, Chance the Rapper, Steve Aoki, Hoda Kotb, Frankie Grande, Coco Jones, Jenna Bush Hager and Olivia Dunne ... to name a few.

Some other standouts ... Arnold Schwarzenegger's "yearbook" pic is definitely a head-turner, seeing how AI has morphed into something totally unrecognizable -- in a good way!

Another notable AI pic comes courtesy of Hayley Kiyoko ... who actually got turned into a dude. The AI programming tends to do that ... it'll mix and match whatever profile it thinks your face best fits, and sometimes -- that might include a little gender-bending. 😅

Britney Spears Gets Pro-Life, Pro-Choice Support ... After Abortion Memoir Story

Britney Spears' bombshell abortion revelation has rallied both pro-life and pro-choice groups to come to her defense -- but for completely different reasons ... TMZ has learned.

We talked to a number of major orgs that land on each side of this issue ... and all are expressing support and solidarity for Britney after she shared a personal story about once getting pregnant by then-BF Justin Timberlake -- only to decide not to have the kid.

For starters -- the National Right to Life Committee, says they're actually willing to lend Brit a hand ... on account of the trauma she might be experiencing by having to relive this.

An NRLC rep tells us there are a lot of folks in their world who are just like Britney -- namely, women who've had abortions, only to regret it later ... which is certainly how Brit sounds. They say they have services and resources available they'd love to extend to her.

One of those is peer counseling and therapy ... which NRTLC says they have in abundance at any of their many pregnancy centers across the country -- all of which is confidential and judgment-free. The Committee adds ... they're there if Brit wants to reach out.

On the opposite end of the coin is a pro-choice organization -- the Center of Reproductive Rights -- which is also coming out to praise Britney ... but their POV's distinct.

BRITNEY'S BOMBSHELL
TMZ.com

As far as they're concerned ... CORR believes Britney simply sharing her experience, in and of itself, dissolves the stigma surrounding abortion -- which they see as a major win for their cause.

A rep adds, "These conversations are especially necessary right now given that millions of people across the U.S. no longer have this right."

There's one last take on all this ... and it comes courtesy of a pro-life org that's tackling the blame element here -- namely, Britney pointing the finger at JT for being the driving force behind her abortion. We broke the story ... she claims he felt they were too young.

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America says, "Our hearts go out to Britney and every woman who has endured an unwanted abortion ... We hope Britney’s bravery to share her deeply personal wound will give other women the courage to voice their stories of abortion coercion. We should all agree that no woman should endure a painful abortion that she truly does not want." A hodgepodge of reactions, no doubt -- and yet ... they all stand with BS.

Dodgers' Evan Phillips Home Burglarized During Playoff Run ... Cops Investigating

A home belonging to Dodgers reliever Evan Phillips was burglarized earlier this month while he was away trying to help Los Angeles win a playoff series ... this according to cops.

Law enforcement tells TMZ Sports ... the break-in at Phillips' L.A.-area pad happened at some point while he was competing against the Arizona Diamondbacks in the National League Division Series.

We're told one suspect smashed a rear window of Phillips' place, entered the home ... and then allegedly took jewelry and cash totaling over $10,000.

So far, no arrests have been made ... and an investigation remains ongoing.

Phillips, who's been pitching for the Dodgers since 2021, threw 2.1 innings in the series against the D-Backs, giving up no earned runs while striking out three. It's unclear if he was aware of the break-in while on the mound.

It's at least the third time cops say a Dodgers player has had to deal with a burglary at their home in the last few months ... police say places belonging to Max Muncy and Freddie Freeman were also ransacked by thieves this season.

We're told the Phillips case, however, does not appear to be connected to the other two.

The Dodgers, meanwhile, won't have to leave town for another few months ... as their season came to an end following three straight losses to Arizona.

Charlie Wilson Ty Dolla $ign Will Nail Ye Album ... Gotta Voice Like Mine!!!

KANYE'S COMEBACK
TMZ.com

Charlie Wilson has no doubts whatsoever Kanye West's upcoming album is in good hands with Ty Dolla $ign as co-pilot, because according to Uncle Charlie ... Ty's voice is golden as his!!!

TMZ Hip Hop linked with The Gap Band leader at LAX, where he told us all of Ye's existing backstories -- antisemitism, public tirades, lawsuits -- will have no bearing on the quality of his new music.

We broke the story, Kanye and Ty$ were holed up good and tight in the studio last month, with Ye cranking out 10 songs in a week's time.

They're currently shopping the album but unlike Charlie's projection ... so far, major record labels are giving the impression Ye's antisemitic rhetoric left a lasting stain.

Larry Jackson's indie distributor Gamma counts Snoop Dogg, Usher and Rick Ross as clients, and still remains a viable option for the project.

As for CW, he last appeared on Kanye's 2019 "Ye" album, and tells us he's not a part of this new one. Charlie admits he and Ye lost contact, but says with Ty$ on board, it'll be a win for the project.

There's no timetable for the album's release but Ty$ wants to change the hip hop climate, and we gotta believe Ye's on the same page.

Jada Pinkett Smith Fun Dinner With Daughter Willow ... Amid Family Drama

Jada Pinkett Smith and her daughter Willow aren't letting all their family's recent drama ruin their appetites ... or their good vibes, apparently.

Jada and Willow went out to dinner Tuesday at Il Mulino Prime in New York City's SoHo district ... and it looks like they had a rocking good time.

The mother-daughter duo was laughing and smiling as they booked it out of the swanky Italian steakhouse ... where they were likely celebrating the release of Jada's memoir, "Worthy."

Jada and Willow certainly had a lot to talk about over dinner ... as you know, Jada's been spilling all sorts of family secrets during her media blitz for the book -- and even if Willow knew most of the tea, the public reaction to it certainly new to them.

As we reported ... Jada had a lot to say about Willow's dad, Will Smith ... like the fact they've been separated for 7 years and pulling off the charade of presenting themselves like a committed couple.

Jada also spilled her guts about Tupac Shakur, revealed she's had suicidal thoughts, detailed her experiences with psychedelic drugs and dished on Chris Rock ... among so many other things.

All of it could make for an awkward dinner for some families ... but not Jada and Willow.

Bella Hadid looks like she's got a new man in her life because she was all over a cowboy in Texas ... stopping to pack on some PDA before crossing the street.

Check out the video, obtained by TMZ, and shot at the famous Fort Worth stockyards this week. You can see the supermodel kissing, hugging and holding hands with Adan Banuelos ... a big star in the horse riding industry.

Folks who were there Tuesday say Bella and Adan seemed happy on their afternoon outing -- poking their heads into a few shops -- when they weren't making out ... of course.

BTW ... Adan's not just some poser in boots and a cowboy hat, he was inducted into the National Cutting Horse Association Riders Hall of Fame in 2017 as one of the youngest inductees of all time.

As for their connection ... Bella's got a love for horses too. She grew up riding but had to take a break because of Lyme disease, and in March she returned to competitive equestrian.

Giddyup!!!

Sophia Bush Dating USWNT Star Ashlyn Harris On Heels of Both Filing for Divorce

Sophia Bush just filed for divorce from her husband, but she's already dating someone new ... recently divorced U.S. Women's National Team soccer stud Ashlyn Harris.

Sources connected to the pair tell us the "One Tree Hill" actress and Ashlyn are officially a thing. The timing seems sudden, considering Harris only filed divorce docs from her wife and fellow USWNT star Ali Krieger less than a month ago.

Sophia's going through a divorce as well ... in August, she filed docs to end things with her husband Grant Hughes after 13 months of marriage.

While Sophia and Grant did NOT have kids together ... Ashlyn and Ali adopted a boy and a girl during their 4-year marriage ... so it will be interesting to see how Sophia and Ashlyn navigate the family dynamic.

Conor McGregor Won't Face Charges Over NBA Finals Game Incident ... Probe Over

Conor McGregor will not face criminal charges over the interaction he had with a woman at an NBA Finals game earlier this summer ... TMZ Sports has learned.

According to a closeout memo we obtained ... prosecutors said there was "insufficient evidence" as well as "contradicting and/or no corroborating witnesses" to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that McGregor sexually assaulted a woman during a bathroom meetup at the Nuggets vs. Heat game in Miami on June 9.

In the doc, prosecutors wrote they viewed CCTV footage from the Kaseya Center on the night of the incident ... and it showed McGregor and his accuser did go into a men's restroom together for approximately five minutes. They wrote it also showed that after the two left the lavatory, they were seen together in a club inside the NBA arena until they went their separate ways at around 12:40 AM.

Prosecutors added, however, that when they interviewed an attendant who was in the same bathroom ... he told them that while he did see the UFC star and his accuser go into a stall together, he "did not hear any signs of distress or sounds that would corroborate that whatever was occurring was not consensual."

Officials also said they spoke with McGregor's accuser's friend ... who told them the alleged victim never mentioned that Conor had attacked her. In fact, prosecutors wrote in the document that the accuser's friend said the woman had called her mother that same night "to tell her she had met" McGregor.

Prosecutors also wrote in the memo that when the woman initially attempted to make the claim against McGregor to cops ... she asked detectives if they believed the 35-year-old fighter "would like to 'settle' or 'pay her off' if she did not pursue charges."

"In light of the above facts and circumstances," prosecutors wrote in the memo, "the State would not be able to satisfy its burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt."

Barbara Llanes of Gelber Schachter & Greenberg, an attorney for McGregor, said in a statement to TMZ Sports on Tuesday she was "pleased" with the conclusion.

"After a thorough investigation, including a review of videos and interviews with eyewitnesses, the authorities have concluded that there is no case to pursue against my client, Conor McGregor," Llanes said. "On behalf of my client, his family and his fans we are pleased this is now over."

Halle Bailey (Baby) Bumpin' in That Hoodie??? New Pics Fuel Pregnancy Buzz

Halle Bailey is doing little to dispel persistent rumors she's pregnant with her first child ... because if that bump is what everyone thinks it is, she's no longer trying to hide it.

The 'Little Mermaid' star was out in Santa Monica, rocking very casual and very baggy clothing -- sweatpants and a hoodie -- and yet all eyes were focused on her midsection.

Halle was joined by rapper boyfriend, DDG, during the Sunday outing, and the couple looked pretty happy about something -- and most of their fans think they know what that something is.

HB did have a bandage on her arm near her elbow, indicating a possible blood draw. If she's preggo, giving blood is something that's done regularly for all sorts of tests.

It looks like DDG also gave blood too, for some reason, because he had a bandage on his left arm.

Halle first sparked pregnancy rumors last month at the MTV Video Music Awards ... when she wore a large, flowing orange dress onstage to present an award.

She also reportedly remained cautious backstage, greeting celebs with handshakes instead of hugs.

Add it all up and it seems like Halle and DDG are starting a family -- but, to be fair, they haven't confirmed anything. Not yet.

Stay tuned ...

"I WISH I WAS GETTING PAID"
TMZ Sports

The Chargers fan who blew up on social media for displaying a roller coaster of emotions during "Monday Night Football" is putting all speculation to rest ... adamantly denying she was a paid actress or AI bot -- she's just that crazy about her team!!

Merrianne Do achieved overnight fame for her animated expressions while supporting Justin Herbert and the Chargers during their 20-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys at SoFi Stadium ... and many were quick to accuse her of being planted by the team or league for manufactured clout.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

TMZ Sports spoke with the internet's newest celebrity ... and she says the truth is, she's your average fanatic who's super passionate about her squad.

"I wish I was being paid," Do tells us. "If [the skeptics] only knew this is how I am every day. My kids are like, 'Mommy this is how you are at my flag football game, why do they think you're getting paid?' I'm like. 'I know, but they don't know me.'"

As it turns out, it's true -- Do and her husband are truly diehard Charger fans -- the two have season tickets in the second row ... and if they aren't sittin' there, they're posted up in the cabana suites.

"We are diehard fans," she says. "It's always been like this. People that know me know that I've been this crazy football fan all my life."

The internet sleuths have been quick to try and poke holes in Do's explanation ... even posting pics of her in Minnesota Vikings gear -- but she has a reason for that, too.

"I grew up in Minnesota before moving to California almost 20 years ago," Do says. "I don't think you have to be a single-team fan. I love my Chargers and I'm not gonna deny my Vikings. At the end of the day, yes, I've been a Vikings fan, I've been through that journey as a Vikings fan and still am, but I'm here in LA for the past 20 years."

Long story short, Do didn't get a cent for her viral moment ... but knowing how internet fame works, that could all change.

"To anybody that thinks this is paid, I am not paid, I'm still eating my ramen noodles."

Kim Zolciak Wants Physical Custody of Kids

Kim Zolciak is finally responding to Kroy Biermann's divorce filing, and she has some demands of her own ... including primary physical custody of their kids.

The 'RHOA' star filed her counterclaim in court, obtained by TMZ, and she makes no bones about who their 4 children should live with going forward. Kim is asking a judge to grant her primary physical custody of the kids -- but says legal custody should be shared between Kroy and herself.

Kim doesn't get into details about why she deserves to have her children with her full-time ... the only thing she points out in her docs is that she's "a loving, fit and proper parent." She does say Kroy should be granted "liberal visitation" with the kiddos.

Kim also says she's dependent on Kroy for support and maintenance -- which is why she's asking the judge to grant her temporary and permanent alimony, on top of child support.

Keep in mind, this flies in the face of what Kroy asked for in his most recent divorce filing ... where he asked for sole physical AND legal custody -- plus child support, alimony, etc.

In terms of their shared property and assets ... Kim's asking the court to equitably divvy that all up. She also points out they have their Georgia mansion together. As we previously reported, they just listed it on the market for a cool $6 million.

Kroy's been begging for Kim to face the fact the marriage is over ... and now it seems he's got her full attention.

Britney Spears Memoir Justin Timberlake Got Me Pregnant ... Both Agreed to Have an Abortion

Britney Spears has what insiders have described as a "bombshell" in her upcoming memoir, and multiple sources tell TMZ ... that bombshell is that Justin Timberlake got her pregnant and after some heart-wrenching discussions they agreed she would get an abortion.

Multiple sources with direct knowledge of the book tell TMZ ... Britney felt Justin was the love of her life when they were together, and around late 2000 she learned she was pregnant.

She says in the book she was raised not to get an abortion ... part of it was religious and part was just what she learned from her family.

In the book, Britney writes, "I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I'd anticipated." But, she says Justin felt they weren't ready, because they were too young -- both were around 19 at the time.

According to the book, Britney says she was "conflicted," but after some difficult, emotional discussions, they both agreed getting an abortion was the right decision.

Justin and Britney dated between 1999 and 2002. Two sources tell TMZ it was so serious, Britney wanted to marry Justin, but that obviously did not work out.

The decision to have an abortion haunted Britney for years ... something she spoke about in private.

Britney ended up having her first child -- Sean Preston -- with husband Kevin Federline in 2005 and she had Jayden James in 2006.

We reached out to Justin's reps ... so far, no word back.

Britney's memoir -- "The Woman in Me" -- comes out October 24.

Blueface Megan Thee Stallion? Been There, Done That You Want Me to Lie??? 🤷🏾‍♂️

Blueface pulled the ol' George Washington cherry tree defense when confronted about his mom wanting to set him up with Megan Thee Stallion -- and, in the process, seemingly let it slip they once were a thing.

Blue and Jaidyn Alexis were the latest guests on "The Jason Lee Show" when the Meg topic came up -- to which the "Thotiana" rapper blurted out he had "been there, done that."

"BEEN THERE, DONE THAT"

Now, he wouldn't say if they slept together, but suggested they engaged in some thot s**t, and there were some oral sexual favors.

Blueface claims the Stallion tryst went down about 5 years ago when he and Meg were 2019 XXL Freshman together, and he seemed to be in disbelief Jason considered their alleged hookup a scoop.

Meanwhile, Jaidyn stared at her watch, uncomfortably ... as she had to sit through more than just the Megan convo.

Coi Leray's name also came up, and BF's response was the same ... been there, done that.

BF denied being a chatty Patty, and claimed he was just answering every question, even ancient ones, truthfully.

So much for gentlemen not kissing and telling. If nothing else, Megan will have plenty to rap about on her next project ... which she just announced will be done independently.

Rachel Leviss Sells Lightning Bolt Necklace, TomTom Hoodies ... Tom Loses Power Over Me

Rachel Leviss is ridding herself of every memory of Tom Sandoval ... she just sold off a necklace and some sweatshirts with connections to the Scandoval.

The former "Vanderpump Rules" sold her lightning bolt necklace on eBay for $5,300 after an all-out bidding war erupted ... there were 131 offers for the piece of reality TV history.

Remember ... Rachel bought the 14K gold necklace to match one Tom wore on the show and it ended up being a clue to their infamous affair.

In her eBay listing, Rachel noted the jewelry was "symbolic of my devotion to another person who I allowed to have power over me. He no longer does."

Rachel also cut ties with a pair of hoodies from Tom's restaurant, TomTom ... they received 122 bids and sold for $9,500.

She says she wore one of the sweatshirts to BravoCon 2022 before we broke the story of her affair with Tom ... and she later gave the hoodie to Andy Cohen the night "everything blew up in my face."

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Rachel says she's donating the proceeds to the National Alliance of Mental Illness ... a non-profit offering education programs for folks affected by mental illness.

As you know, Rachel stepped away to deal with her mental health in the aftermath of the Scandoval and a combative 'VPR' reunion show ... and she decided against returning for the following season.

Britney Spears 'Everytime' Fan Theory ... Justin Timberlake Baby Honored???

Britney Spears fans are digging for clues after TMZ broke the story revealing she and  Justin Timberlake were pregnant and decided to get an abortion ... believing one of Britney's most famous music videos is a tribute to the baby.

Britney sleuths are training their eyes on her "Everytime" music video and diving into the potential meanings behind the song's lyrics.

As we first reported, Britney claims in her new memoir "The Woman In Me" that Justin got her pregnant when they were dating from 1999 to 2002 and they had some heart-wrenching discussions where they agreed she would get an abortion.

Now fans are honing in on the "Everytime" music video where Britney sings the chorus while a woman gives birth in the background ... and there's a few close-up shots of a woman and her baby ... with fans thinking it's a subtle nod to the baby she could have had with Justin.

There's also the song's chorus ... "And every time I see you in my dreams I see your face, you're haunting me. I guess I need you, baby."

"Everytime" came out in 2003, a year after Justin dropped his massive hit "Cry Me a River" in 2002 ... which he says he wrote as a result of a nasty argument with Britney.

Other lyrics catching fans' attention include ... "I make-believe that you are here. It's the only way I see clear. What have I done?" The next line is, "You seem to move on easy," and fans think she's referencing Justin's response to the alleged abortion.

For his part, Justin hasn't said anything about Britney's claims.

We discussed Britney's book on latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.
