Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann have finally listed their house, and a new court order hopes to keep the peace while they're still under the same roof ... giving Kim exclusive use of the basement/nanny suite and Kroy the primary bedroom.

New court docs, obtained by TMZ, lay out the living arrangements, stating, "Neither party shall enter the other party’s individually awarded space in the marital residence without permission." The docs also state they'll share common areas like the kitchen and living room.

What's more ... in an effort to protect the couple's 4 young kids, it's ordered both Kim and Kroy act civilly towards one another, further stating, "Neither parent shall disparage the other parent in the presence of or earshot of the minor children."

The documents also state neither parent can eavesdrop while the other has time with the kids ... and the kids can't be used as messengers from one parent to the other.

While the order may sound drastic, it's certainly necessary as things in the Zolciak/Biermann household have been anything but cordial since the couple filed for divorce.

TMZ broke the story, during one instance where cops were called, Kim accused Kroy of locking her out of their primary bedroom -- and refused to open the door, even for officers.

BTW ... the new arrangement officially gives the green light on the sale of the couple's Georgia mansion. We were first to report when the home hit the market for $6 million ... money that will certainly go toward the couple's massive debts.

The teens accused of fatally mowing down a retired police chief with a stolen car giggled in court Tuesday -- smirking at the victim's family and flipping them the bird.

Jesus Ayala, 18, and Jzamir Keys, 16, appeared for a morning hearing in a Las Vegas courtroom after they were indicted on charges of murdering former top cop Andreas Probst and other serious felonies.

An 8NewsNow camera crew filmed the suspects in their blue jail uniforms, smiling and laughing as they sat watching the court proceedings.

At one point, the pair covered their faces with their hands to shield themselves from the cameras. As they were led out of the courtroom, they grinned smugly at Probst's wife and daughter -- and made the offensive gesture at them.

After the hearing, Probst's daughter, Taylor, blasted the teens, telling KSNV, "These guys did not respect the court whatsoever. They were just dicking around the entire time."

She went on, "They were flipping us off. How can you sit there after taking a man's life and act like such an entitled punk?"

On August 14, the suspects were allegedly driving in a stolen car down a Las Vegas street -- when they intentionally rammed into the back of the 66-year-old Probst while he was riding his bicycle, killing him.

Earlier that day, they did the same thing, crashing the vehicle into another cyclist, who fortunately suffered only minor injuries, according to police.

In both cases, the offenders shot videos of their deliberate attacks -- while they were chuckling. Newly released surveillance footage shows them running away from police -- and one of them wearing a face mask.

Travis Kelce knows he's doing the right thing in dating Taylor Swift ... and it's all thanks to Chiefs head coach Andy Reid giving his stamp of approval on the relationship.

Big Red gave a glowing review of the pop superstar following the Chiefs' big win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday ... saying "Taylor can stay around all she wants" as Kelce continues to ball out every time she attends his games.

Travis addressed Reid's comments on his "New Heights" podcast with his brother Jason on Wednesday ... saying the coach's endorsement is a good sign.

"I love Coach Reid, man," Taylor's boo said. "What a guy. Listen, when you’re getting Big Red’s approval and blessings, you know you’re doing something right."

Of course, Jason noted Travis' stats see a huge spike whenever T. Swift comes around ... saying he averages nearly 100 yards a game when she's present, and just 46.5 when she skips.

Kelce laughed it all off ... saying there's no way he couldn't know about Taylor's impact on his game -- considering everyone's talking about it on social media.

7:31 AM PT -- Jason Alexander's got a bad case of revisionist history, at least when it comes to how sober he and Britney Spears were on their wedding day. Eight years after the ceremony he told ABC News they'd been drinking and had "party favors."

When asked if he meant drugs, he coyly pointed out alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes are all drugs. Point is, they were far from sober, and Britney fans are calling him out for lying.

Jason Alexander, Britney Spears' ex-husband, is clapping back at her claim she only married him because she was drunk and bored ... instead, he insists it was true, sober love.

Jason, who was married to Britney for a whopping 55 hours in 2004 before getting an annulment, tells TMZ ... readers shouldn't believe a word Britney says about their marriage in her new memoir.

In "The Woman In Me," Britney says she and Jason "got sh**faced" before tying the knot early one morning in Las Vegas back in January '04 ... adding, "People have asked me if I loved him. To be clear: he and I were not in love"

Britney also writes, "I was just honestly very drunk -- and probably, in a more general sense at that time in my life, very bored."

JA says that's BS because they were absolutely in love and weren't boozing -- which, btw, is exactly how their wedding officiant described the couple in a previous interview.

Jason says they've been friends since childhood, and he still cares for and loves her -- however, he adds, he'd never buy her memoir, and would only accept a copy if it was signed ... and, even then, he admits he'd probably "sell it to the highest bidder."

So much for the love!

Britney's revealed a ton of bombshells in the book ... and Jason says, in his opinion, Britney's abortion from her pregnancy with Justin Timberlake was a "horrible decision." Jason believes the two would've had enough money to raise a kid and get help as well.

He also weighed in on Britney's rationale for her nude photo posts ... saying he sees it as "childish behavior" from a mother, but he believes Justin cheated, and then broke up with Brit in response to her cheating. That's his 2 cents, anyway.

Chris Pratt says his mother-in-law, Maria Shriver, has held onto a treasure trove of Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt's childhood achievements ... and that revelation has folks debating trophy hoarding.

The actor shared some pics Tuesday of Katherine with her plastic gold, and said, "Maria has been storing special items from Katherine’s childhood for years. Which is so very thoughtful."

He jokingly added, "I cannot say how proud I am of my wife for being a fourth-grade problem-solving superstar. There’s also a trophy for 'most improved two-year-old' in swim class. Wow!!"

Chris then dropped the punch line, pointing out Katherine was the only 2-year-old in that swim class. Hey, still counts for something!

He said the huge smile on Katherine's face must be Maria's "payoff for the work it took to store this stuff."

Chris put it all in perspective, saying ... "To pray one day that your children will look back on their childhood with glee is a blessing. It is the hope of parenthood."

But, here's where the debate started -- Chris asked, "real talk… once your kid goes through the stuff, is it okay to toss? I mean… do we need the 'I was on a sports team trophy?'"

He's probably thinking about it, because he's got 3 kids -- 10-year-old Jack with Anna Faris, and 3-year-old Lyla and 1-year-old Eloise with Katherine -- so it's a question he's for sure gonna need an answer sooner than later.

Folks have been chiming in the comments, sharing their thoughts on the trophy topic ... so let's settle this debate.

Britney Spears is over the moon over the spectacular success of her tell-all memoir, "The Woman in Me" ... and she jumped online to thank her millions of fans for their help in breaking records.

The singer hopped on Instagram Tuesday night -- the same day her book dropped -- to share her excitement ... "My book is the highest selling celebrity memoir in history and it’s only day 1 !!!"

She went on to thank the fans for their support, with good reason ... the book's sitting atop both Amazon and Barnes and Noble's best sellers lists since it debuted. It hasn't shown up on the New York Times Best Sellers List ... at least not yet.

As you know, Brit left a lot of juicy details about her past on the pages of her memoir ... dishing about her rocky relationship with Justin Timberlake -- claiming she had an abortion at his behest.

She also talked about her conservatorship, left a glowing review of her ex, Sam Asghari, and wrote about how her former hubby Jason Alexander "got sh**faced" before getting married in 2004 -- something Jason told us was total BS.

Natalee Holloway's brother has serious doubts Joran van der Sloot has found God after killing his sister ... and he's ready to hand the murdering monster a beatdown if he ever walks free.

Matt Holloway has been a correctional officer in the past, and while he tells us his experience is that many inmates turn to religion ... he also thinks van der Sloot is lying through his teeth about making that change.

He thinks van der Sloot was only honest about Natalee's death for selfish reasons -- the fact is, he struck a plea deal -- and Matt promises he will "whoop his ass" the day the killer is a free man.

That could happen in about 22 years. Van der Sloot got a 20-year sentence last week in Alabama when he pled guilty to extortion and wire fraud and confessed to killing Natalee. However, he'll serve that sentence concurrent to the 22 years he has left to serve in Peru for murdering a woman and drug trafficking down there.

Right now his scheduled release date is June 2045, when he'll be 57.

We also talked with Matt about why he thought it was practically impossible to nail van der Sloot for Natalee's killing all those years ago -- and he feels van der Sloot's father being a high-profile attorney in Aruba interfered in the investigation.

Matt says he's certain corruption was at play in van der Sloot dodging authorities for over a decade ... and he's calling out Aruba for, in his eyes, purposely dropping the ball. He is also calling for the Aruban government to look into any potential charges it could bring against van der Sloot now that he's copped to killing Natalee and misleading police.

In his chilling confession, van der Sloot said he took a cinder block and smashed Natalee's head in on the beach in 2005 -- this after she denied his sexual advances by kneeing him in the groin.

Sergio Brown has been transported from San Diego to Illinois ... where he's now set to go in front of a judge on Wednesday to face two separate charges in connection with his mother's death -- first-degree murder and concealment of a dead body.

The Maywood Police Department said in a statement to TMZ Sports late Tuesday evening the hearing will begin at 9 AM CT at a Maywood courthouse -- several miles from where Brown allegedly killed his 73-year-old mom and dumped her body near a creek behind her home.

Police released Brown's latest mug shot in announcing the updated charges against the former football player ... and, according to a spokesperson for the Maywood Police Dept., he was wearing a Ben Roethlisberger jersey as he was being processed.

Brown had been behind bars in Southern California since Oct. 10 ... after authorities pulled him out of Mexico -- where he was spotted dancing and partying in the days following his mom's passing.

Video shot from inside of a plane just after Mexican officers apprehended Brown showed he was very uncooperative as they tried to extradite him back to the U.S.

It's unclear if law enforcement faced any sort of similar issues while transporting him from SD to Illinois this week.

Jenelle Evans says she can't trust anyone in her life, not even her own family, and she's reeling in the wake of her husband being charged with child abuse.

The 'Teen Mom' star just broke her silence on the child abuse charge against David Eason in a case involving her 14-year-old son Jace ... going after police and the folks closest to her.

Jenelle says ... "I do not trust anyone around me ... I have no idea what human being I can trust anymore, not even my own blood."

She continues ... "I'm being fed all these different stories from different people. People trying to get on my good side.. To then betray me over and over."

Jenelle does not name names in her social media posts ... and she also takes aim at the North Carolina cops who oversaw the child abuse case saying ...

"YOU WOULD THINK POLICE WOULDN'T MAKE A ONE SIDED POLICE INVESTIGATION. THEY DIDN'T CONDUCT INTERVIEWS, DIDN'T ASK ANY INFORMATION FROM THE PARENTS."

"THIS SEEMS LIKE A VERY BIAS SITUATION LIKE EVERYTIME BEFORE. I TRUSTED THAT DETECTIVE WITH ALL MY HEART.. FORGOT YOU CAN'T TRUST COPS... SILLY ME."

TMZ broke the story ... David was charged with a misdemeanor after Jace ran away from David and Jenelle's home back in September, prompting an investigation. It was the third time Jace had run away from home in about a month's time.

Remember ... Jenelle got custody of Jace from her mother, Barbara, earlier this year and he's David's stepson.

Richard Roundtree, famous for playing the lead role in "Shaft," is dead after a battle with cancer.

The actor died Monday as a result of pancreatic cancer, according to his manager Patrick McMinn. We're told Richard was diagnosed two months ago, and his family was with him when he died at his home in Los Angeles.

Richard is best known for playing detective John Shaft in the original 'Shaft' movie franchise ... including the 1971 OG film, "Shaft," the 1972 sequel "Shaft's Big Score!" and the 1973 trilogy, "Shaft In Africa."

RR was regarded as the first Black action hero in Hollywood ... and his breakthrough performance in "Shaft" saw him nominated for New Star of the Year at the Golden Globe Awards.

The face of the 'Shaft' franchise, Richard also starred in the 1973 'Shaft' TV series.

When 'Shaft' got a remake in 2000, Richard reprised his role as John Shaft alongside Samuel L Jackson, who plays Shaft's nephew. He also plays the character in the 2019 version.

Richard also had a role in the famous "Roots" miniseries ... playing the role of Sam Bennett.

More recently, Richard played Gabrielle Union's father in the drama series "Being Mary Jane."

Gabrielle says working with Richard "was a dream" ... and she's remembering him as "the coolest man in the room with the BEST vibes." She says folks "literally run over to come see him...we all loved him."

The last time we talked to Richard was in 2018 when he told us about filming 'Shaft' reboots with Samuel L.

Richard was 81.

Britney Spears unveils loads of crazy stories in her new memoir, many of which went down in the mid-2000s ... a tumultuous time when she lived in this Bev Hills mansion that became infamous the night she was committed.

Her spacious former pad is located in a gated community called The Summit, with the roughly 7,500-square-foot home even being considered "paparazzi-proof" because of how exclusive it is.

It's got some sweet perks like a home theater, chef's kitchen, saltwater swimming pool, jacuzzi and tons of backyard space.

Britney moved into the bougie pad in 2007 -- not long after filing for divorce from her ex, Kevin Federline -- and she was still living here when she melted down in early 2008 and was placed on a mental health hold.

You'll recall, an ambulance raced to the home and paramedics strapped Britney to a stretcher ... removing her as photographers swarmed, and TV helicopters hovered above to get shots.

Brit was taken to Cedars-Sinai for treatment.

As we reported, she first listed the home in 2008 with Tomer Fridman of Compass ... and ended up selling the place in 2012 for $4,253,000 -- more than $1 million above the original asking price. We were told she got multiple offers for the home, too.

Sources added she was getting out of there and moving in with her then-fiance, Jason Trawick.

Britney's mansion sold again in 2021 -- this time by "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" stars Josh and Matt Altman -- when it went for $6.1M.

Chris Long says "Tush Push" play haters need to kick rocks ... telling TMZ Sports if teams have such a problem with it, they should simply learn how to stop it.

The "Brotherly Shove" has become one of the most polarizing issues in the NFL this year ... after the Philadelphia Eagles have found a way to turn the ugly QB sneak into a first-down-making machine.

Some have argued it's unfair, while others have said it's so convoluted, boring, and even dangerous -- the NFL needs to ban it.

But Long -- who won a Super Bowl with the Eagles in 2018 -- said the league should do no such thing ... explaining he believes the play's detractors are just envious of the Birds.

"The Eagles running it looks totally different than the Niners running it or some other team," the 2008 first-round pick said. "And I think people are just mad at Philly. No one likes us, we don't care."

Long tells us teams shouldn't look to Roger Goodell to fix their problems with the play ... and instead, they should just "draft bigger guys." Or, better yet, he said just avoid third- and fourth-down-and-short plays against Philly altogether!!!

Before you could pick out these trick-or-treaters by their famous faces, they were just some cute kiddos reppin' their festive spirit!

Big names like Sam Smith and Heidi Klum are just a couple of the youngsters who sported adorable costumes in hopes of collecting large amounts of sweets and treats, but can you guess who they are?

This actress's breakout role came from playing Hit-Girl in the movie "Kick Ass" ... but who is the unknown kid dressed as Tinker Bell?

"That '70s Show" put this little Flintstone in the spotlight, but do you know the mystery child who's ready to ring some doorbells?

LeBron James pulled out all the stops for his first fashion statement of the 2023-24 season ... rocking over $28,000 worth of Louis Vuitton for opening night!!

King James -- who is entering his 21st season -- clearly wanted to come up with a special look for the Los Angeles Lakers opening game against the Denver Nuggets at Ball Arena ... and he certainly didn't disappoint.

The 19-time All-Star forward is covered in Louis V ... from the $5k damoflage tweed chic collarless jacket and $1,250 pants to the $1,220 LV checker derby kicks.

He didn't stop there -- the Speedy Bandouliere 40 he's holding comes with an $11k price tag, and the briefcase will set the Average Joe back another $9,500.

So yeah, Bron's whole look is fit for a king.

BTW, some of those pieces LBJ is wearing are from Pharrell's men's Spring-Summer 2024 collection. The famous producer/rapper became the high-end brand's new men's creative director in February ... and debuted his items in Paris this summer.

James wasn't the only player showing up in style on Tuesday -- Michael Porter Jr. wore a signed Peyton Manning Broncos jersey ... and Peyton Watson was reppin' Deion Sanders with his own autographed "Coach Prime" gear.

High flyer Aaron Gordon also put his interesting taste on display ... going with a sleeveless burgundy blazer and shorts.

As for James' look ... anyone who wants to get their hands on the same items will have to wait just a bit -- pre-order sales start the first week of December.

Jenelle Evans' husband, David Eason, has been charged with child abuse in a case involving Jenelle's 14-year-old son, Jace.

We don't yet know the circumstances surrounding David's charges, but we do know the investigation was opened up after Jace ran away from home. The charge is a misdemeanor.

TMZ broke the story, Jace snuck out a window at David and Jenelle's home back in September ... running off into the woods and prompting a police response. Once he was located, cops started diving into the case as possible neglect as it was the third time Jace had run away in about a month's time.

While it's unclear exactly what happened, we're told there's video of an assault involving Jace ... and both cops and child protective services had the video in their possession.

Our law enforcement sources tell us while Jenelle hasn't yet been charged, there's a possibility she could eventually face charges as well. Jace is David's stepson.

It was earlier this year when Jenelle got custody of Jace from her mother, Barbara, who had cared for him from a young age as Jenelle was deemed an unfit parent.

You might remember the incident from 2019 when Eason shot and killed the family dog after it allegedly bit their young daughter in the face ... Eason was not charged for that incident.

Dunkin' Donuts allegedly dished out a very hot, and very expensive cup of coffee ... a franchise in Georgia just settled a lawsuit over some spilled java for $3 million.

Here's the deal ... an elderly woman in Atlanta sued after claiming she suffered third-degree burns when her Dunkin' Donuts coffee spilled on her lap as she sat in her car in the drive-thru of a DD in Sugar Hill, GA.

The woman, represented by Benjamin Welch at Morgan & Morgan, claimed the lid was not secured on the coffee cup, causing a spill she says burned her body so badly she had to get extensive skin grafts and re-learn how to walk.

The law firm says the incident happened back in February 2021 ... and now there's been a settlement, with the woman set to receive $3 million from the Dunkin' Donuts franchisee.

Morgan & Morgan says the woman racked up more than $200k in medical bills, and still struggles with day-to-day life as a result of the burns, which require her to apply creams and ointments several times a day.

The lawsuit and settlement bring back memories of a famous 1994 lawsuit against McDonald's, when another woman claimed she was burned by hot coffee.
