Tom Brady and Irina Shayk are no more ... calling it quits on their brief, but super attractive romance.

Sources connected to the former pair tell TMZ the two eventually "fizzled out" after some time together, no drama or scandal ... it just came to an end. The signs have been on the wall recently that things were likely over ... as each has spent a lot of time in separate cities.

Earlier this week, Tom was spotted in Miami and Irina was in New York. Obviously, it's a quick flight ... but the fact we haven't seen them together is a telling sign.

It was back in July and August when things really heated up between the two -- she spent the night at his place in Los Angeles, got affectionate in his car and even took a trip overseas ... spotted coming out of the same London hotel.

Some started to wonder if Irina had gotten back together with her ex, Bradley Cooper, early last month when she posted a pic of him on social media.

At the time, sources told us Irina and Tom were still together ... and don't forget, she's got a kid with Cooper, so they maintain a level of friendship.

So while Tom and Irina may be donezo, something tells us neither of them will have a problem lining their next partner up ... it's a whole lot easier when you're both rich and really, really good-looking.

An accused con man came up with a bizarre, yet hilarious scheme to get out of paying his restaurant tabs ... he faked heart attacks on TWENTY occasions!!!!

The alleged scam artist, identified as Aidas J., took on a "typical Russian tourist" persona as he hit various eateries in Alicante, Spain, where he moved from his home in Lithuania, according to news reports. He would then go about swindling the establishments.

In his latest grift, Aidas sat down in El Buen Comer and ordered a seafood dish and two whiskies.

After he knocked it all back, he tried to slip out the door without paying. But an eagle-eyed employee blocked him and demanded he pay the $36.80.

Aidas said he needed to get the money from his hotel room, but, when that excuse didn't fly, he pretended to be sick and slumped to the floor.

Of course, the staff was dubious and contacted the police. Responding officers immediately recognized Aidas as the notorious scammer whose been arrested numerous times for the same hijinks.

Aidas was arrested for the unpaid $36 bill and hauled off to the police station. Usually, he spends a few days in jail and then he's back out doing his thing.

Former Major League Baseball pitcher Danny Serafini is in some MAJOR trouble ... 'cause he just got arrested for serious felonies!!

Serafini and his alleged accomplice, Samantha Scott, were busted in Nevada Friday for the 2021 fatal shooting of Robert Gary Spohr and attempted murder of Wendy Wood.

Cops said the victims were Serafini's in-laws, but they wouldn't characterize the relationship between the ex-Minnesota Twins player and Scott.

According to a June 2021 press release, officers were called to a home in North Lake Tahoe, California, and discovered Spohr had been shot to death.

His wife, Wendy, suffered a bullet wound in the same attack and was rushed to a local hospital, where she was released after treatment. She passed away a year later.

Security video from their house shows a hooded masked man with a backpack lurking around the property in the hours before the bloodshed. Investigators have not disclosed a motive, and formal charges have yet to be filed against Serafini and Scott.

Meryl Streep and her husband, Don Gummer, have been living separate lives for six years.

The Oscar-winning actress and her sculptor spouse "will always care for each other," even though "they have chosen lives apart,” according to a statement obtained by the New York Post. The couple has not filed for divorce, as far as we know.

Streep was spotted wearing her wedding band Monday as she attended the Princesa de Asturias Awards 2023 in Spain. But Gummer was not by her side and the last time they were seen together was at the 2018 Academy Awards.

In 1978, the two met through Streep's brother after her boyfriend, John Cazale, had died from lung cancer. The pair got married soon after, but in recent years, they have kept their relationship under the radar.

They own 3 beautiful, sprawling homes in Connecticut, NYC and Pasadena, California.

Bill Maher has an urgent message for kids who are considering college -- DON'T GO ... and if you must, avoid Harvard at all costs because it will turn you into an idiot.

The 'Real Time' host unloaded on elite colleges, which have lost their tolerance for ideas that don't check the "right" boxes.

He, of course, raised the war currently raging in the Middle East, where the prevailing view on college campuses is to excuse and/or ignore the worst terrorism since the Holocaust and support Hamas. He noted 34 student groups at Harvard signed a petition condemning Israel, and 5 groups retracted their support, saying they didn't read the petition carefully enough.

Bill calls Harvard and other elite schools a daycare center where the toddlers can fire the adults. Of course, the President of Harvard and the other schools have approached the war and other issues with deafening silence.

But boy, did BM go in on Harvard, saying if ignorance were a disease, Harvard Yard would be the Wuhan Wet Market.

And then he ticks off a list of Harvard grads, including Ted Cruz, Ron DeSantis, Pat Robertson, Tom Cotton, Jared Kushner, Steve Bannon, George W. Bush, calling them eminently face-punchable!

Rams receiver Demarcus Robinson was robbed at gunpoint in Los Angeles on Friday morning ... and cops say they were told the brazen thieves made off with over $100K worth of jewelry.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Sports ... officers responded to calls of a robbery outside a Los Angeles area hotel just after midnight.

Cops were told two men approached the 29-year-old football player, pointed firearms at him ... and demanded he hand over his valuables -- which included a pricey watch.

Our sources say Robinson obliged ... and the thieves took off. Thankfully, the wideout is said to now be doing OK despite the circumstances.

Cops say they've launched an investigation into the matter ... though, so far, no arrests have been made.

Robinson began his career with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016 and helped Patrick Mahomes win Super Bowl LIV in 2020. He joined the Rams this offseason -- but he's yet to record a catch through five games.

The Houston Astros and Texas Rangers nearly got into a bench-clearing brawl after a beanball incident during the 8th inning of their Friday night championship game.

The teams were going head-to-head in Game 5 of the American League Championship Series when Houston relief pitcher Bryan Abreu wound up and hurled a 98.9 mile-per-hour fastball, striking Rangers batter Adolis Garcia in his left arm.

Check out this video posted on X ... Garcia looks furious as he pushes Houston catcher Martín Maldonado, while the umpire gets between them.

Both teams then pour onto the field and run toward each other, gathering in one big heap near home plate.

The players start yelling and shoving one another, but the tense situation never escalates into a full-scale fight.

Still, Garcia continues to blow off steam as his teammates hold him back -- and eventually escort him off Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX.

The umpires ejected three people: Abreu, Garcia and Astros manager Dusty Baker.

When the game resumed, the Astros went on to beat the Rangers 5-4. The Astros now hold a 3-2 lead in the series as they travel back to Houston for Game 6.

Taryn Manning and her makeup artist are adding to their list of bizarre incidents ... this time, Holly Hartman was arrested for driving Taryn's car, which had been reported stolen.

Law enforcement tells TMZ ... Holly was taken into custody Wednesday morning in West Hollywood after sheriff's deputies pulled her over and discovered the 2004 Chrysler Crossfire she was driving was hot.

We're told deputies called Taryn, who would only tell them the car belonged to her ... and she refused to indicate whether she wanted to press charges against Holly.

The case, we're told, will now be sent to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office for possible criminal charges.

It's unclear when the car was reported stolen ... but we're told the report originated in Palm Springs, which is a pretty long drive from WeHo.

Taryn and Holly have a rocky history. Although they've been close for many years, Taryn was arrested for allegedly attacking Holly in 2012, though the charges were eventually dropped.

Britney's book is proving to be explosive, and it's breaking pre-sales records ... also, Kim K could have ended up as a juror in a murder case -- crazy! So we gotta ask ...

Fat Joe keeps a world of luxury around him, and that includes his wheels ... recently snagging a $750K custom Rolls-Royce Cullinan with a bunch of sick features.

The Don ordered the custom Rolls-Royce 4 months ago -- an impromptu purchase after he saw a version of the wide-body Rolls while he was out in Dubai.

We're told Joe FaceTimed Will Castro from Unique Whips on Speedvision the second he saw the vehicle, and asked Will to build him one.

Will tells TMZ Hip Hop the job proved to be challenging for the team ... Joe demands the absolute best and the kits are made to order and delivered from Europe.

Joe's dropped $100k for the car's body, and Will and his crew added 24” wheels and tires ... the whole thing took the team over a month to build.

Will did all the bodywork, paint, carbon work and will be self-delivering Joe his new car this weekend. The latest cartraption marks the 3rd Rolls-Royce SUV Will and the team has done for Joe ... just last year, they hooked him up with a sweet RR orange-and-black ensemble.

Robin Thicke knows how to get the spooky party going; however, do you have what it takes to detect the minor switch-ups within these "blurred lines?" Twerk your way right into these two similar images ... Quick, before it's lights out!

"You know you want it!"

Dee Snider is cool with politicians on both sides using his band's anthem on the campaign trail ... but he's drawing a line when it comes to anyone spewing QAnon conspiracies.

We got the Twisted Sister frontman at LAX and our photog asked him where he stands on politicians playing "We're Not Gonna Take It" ... now that campaign season is about to heat up.

Dee says Republicans and Democrats have his blessing to play the song at rallies, appearances and in ads ... but says the same does not hold true for any candidates who go full QAnon.

The issue with QAnon for Dee ... it's all a bunch of lies and BS, and he feels there's already enough of that in the world.

Dee's made his feelings on QAnon well-known on social media over the years ... and he's doubling down here.

We also asked Dee how he feels about the U.S. military using the song as a battle cry now that another war has erupted ... and he explains why the armed forces are more than welcome to rock out to Twisted Sister.

These celebs are here for a gourd ol' time ... heading to the pumpkin patches and snatching pumpkins in their prime! While some stars fled to pumpkins galore in batches, some opted for flying solo to enjoy the patches!

Talk about #squashgoals ... Mandy Moore, hubby and kiddos were the cutest pumpkins in the patch, Ray J hit the hay with his son and posed for a precious pumpkin pic, and social media stars Brooklyn and Bailey were twinning with their pretty, precious finds.

NLE Choppa's mom is worried sick for her son, saying she hasn't heard from him in hours ... and asking anyone who may have contact to get in touch with her ASAP.

Choppa's mom, Angela Potts, posted the concerning message Friday, writing, "Y’all help me pray over my child. He plans on moving back to Cottonwood where we worked hard to get out of just for a mixtape SMH! I ain’t talked to this boy in hours and he usually doesn’t do this. One thing I know about my son is that he doesn’t go ghost for any reason."

She continues with a message to her son, "Whatever your working on I pray GOD is guiding you. If y’all hear from him PLEASE CONTACT ME ASAP ! To the fans he wants to please thanks a lot."

What's unclear is whether or not NLE gave Angela -- who is also his manager -- a reason to believe he could be in trouble, or if he's just faced a lot of pressure in keeping up with his own career.

We should note ... a message on NLE's Instagram story (posted by management) also encouraged fans to reach out to Angela if they see the rapper.

Bravo allowed its "Real Housewives" stars to get way out of control -- fueling them with booze and a party environment -- which allegedly led to a man hired as a butler to be sexually abused ... according to a lawsuit he's brought against the network.

The guy, Marco Vega, says he was hired on during season 2 of "Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip" as a butler at Dorinda Medley's Blue Stone Manor in Massachusetts the cast visited in September 2021. Vega says the women were drinking heavily -- shots of bourbon and cocktails included.

He says at one point, a woman came out to perform a strip tease for the housewives, and once that stopped, show producers told him to, "go over and get the women dancing!"

In Vega's lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, he claims during the dancing, Phaedra Parks slapped him on the butt and Brandi Glanville ran over to him, pulled him over to her by the back of his shirt and ripped it off ... exposing his bare chest.

Vega says Glanville yelled, "Earn your money, Marco. Take your shirt off. Do something!"

Vega says after the wild party, he returned to his hotel -- and filled his wife in on the night. Vega claims she was very upset, and the whole thing has caused him some serious marital issues.

Marco's suing Bravo because he says the network has a pattern of encouraging the housewives to engage in sexually inappropriate behavior. He's not suing Brandi or Phaedra.

Race car driver Christy Georges-Barnett turned $25 into more than a MILLION BUCKS at a Las Vegas slot machine ... and her reaction to the big hit was priceless!!

The 63-year-old -- who currently races USRA Dirt Mods and Super Trucks -- won the jackpot earlier this week at the famous Caesars Palace on the Vegas strip.

The luxury hotel and casino shared a bystander's TikTok video of the moment Barnett went hysterical ... showing her yelling, "It's a million dollars," at the slot machine.

The crowd was in complete shock ... and the camera zoomed in on the machine to make sure viewers could clearly see the winning pot was over $1.18 million.

BTW, Christy is one of the best female racers out there ... and her need for speed took off after she decided to buy a dirt bike when she was just 20 years old.

Since then, she's become a 4-time Dirt Track Pro Stock Track champ, a 4-time Open Wheel Dirt Modified Track champion, a 2-time 3-wheeler Flat Track champ (250cc), and the list goes on.

Georges-Barnett is also the only woman to win an UMP Dirty National title and the fastest woman in a NASCAR at Bonneville Salt Flats (208 MPH).

Her husband, Sherman Barnett, also races in stock cars, Super Trucks, Modifieds, Xmods and Late models ... so maybe they take the hunk of cash and get a nice whip!!
