Paris Hilton's Ex-BF Chris Zylka 2nd Engagement Goes Boom!!! Hailee Lautenbach Ends It

Paris Hilton's ex-boyfriend Chris Zylka is no longer engaged to actress Hailee Lautenbach ... TMZ has learned.

Hailee tells TMZ ... "Ending the engagement was the best decision I've ever made in my life." And, if that response sounds familiar to anyone -- it was nearly identical to a statement Paris dropped to Cosmo UK after she and Chris called off their own engagement in 2018.

As for when the split occurred? Sources say Hailee and Chris ended things back in January ... shortly after the duo moved to L.A. together from Portland, OR.

We're told the exes are no longer living together, which is not a given these days -- yes, we're looking at you Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix.

Their split comes almost a year and a half after Chris popped the question -- infamously without a ring -- before the Seattle marathon in 2022.

They struck up a romantic relationship after first meeting on the set for the movie "Model House" ... which awkwardly enough, is coming out on April 5. Something tells us you won't see them sitting side-by-side to promote it.

This is Chris' second attempt at heading to the altar. Remember, in January 2018, he proposed marriage to the Hilton heiress -- of course, that time he did have a ring ... a 20-carat sparkler to be exact.

The engagement was short-lived, however, as Chris and Paris called things off by November of that same year.

Paris went on to marry Carter Reum in 2021, and they've had 2 kids together.

Meanwhile, Chris is back on the market.

Jason Tartick Zips Lips on Kat Stickler Rumors ... Keepin' Love Life Private

Keeping Things Private
TMZ.com

Jason Tartick says he's trying to keep his love life more private these days ... and he's sticking to that resolution so far -- 'cause he's dodgin' Kat Stickler questions.

We spoke with the financial guru/television personality Wednesday in NYC, asking him about all the online buzz about his entanglement with social media star Stickler ... but JT's not kissin' and tellin' -- if he's kissin' Kat at all, that is!!!

Instead of addressing the rumors head-on, Tartick decided to plug his podcast "Trading Secrets" ... saying she's a guest on an upcoming episode. That did nothing to cool rumors.

Jason says he's trying to keep his romantic life closer to the vest these days, pretty much leaving all the Kat Stickler talk at that.

Rumors began to catch heat after gossip site DeuxMoi shared an anonymous tip about the two going out for some grub. Of course, KS apparently recorded a podcast episode with Tartick -- so maybe it was just a business dinner? Nah.

Either way ... it seems Jason's ready to move on in the dating world -- or, at least he seems to be thinking about it based on our convo with him. Pretty big news given he and his ex-fiancée Kaitlyn Bristowe broke things off just seven months ago.

The pair broke their news to their thousands of followers in an IG post ... saying they respected each other, wanted to remain friends, and would co-parent their two dogs together.

BTW ... Jason's also got advice for all the influencers who might be affected by TikTok possibly getting banned in the U.S. -- check out the vid for that helpful hint.

Kicking things off on "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles discussed Meghan King's staunch defense of Olivia Rodrigo for handing Plan B birth control at her St. Louis concert ... something that sparked outrage and backlash among many across the country.

MK doesn't think Olivia has anything to apologize over, but Olivia changed her tune regardless.

Celebrity Scramble Guess Who!

Hidden behind this cute squishy face is an actor/singer who landed his first movie role in "The Beat Beneath My Feet" starring Luke Perry. He usually comes with a chiseled jawline and a charming English accent, so beware of the incoming clues and see if you can unscramble the unknown figure.

No question he's worked with some of Hollywood's hottest stars ... he played Cinderella's prince charming and cozied up to Camilla Cabello. And, his newest film premiered yesterday where he plays the love interest of Anne Hathaway's character.

Can you determine who this handsome fella is?

Shakira Gerard's Career Came First ... Sacrificed For Love

Shakira fans have been waiting almost a decade for a new album ... and her ex Gerard Piqué may be to blame -- at least, according to Shakira herself that is.

The singer-songwriter sat down with the Sunday Times for an interview published Saturday ... where she revealed she actually put her career on pause to support Gerard turning his playing days in Barcelona.

Shakira explained she made a lot of sacrifices in the name of love -- one we know didn't last -- deciding to take care of the kids rather than focusing on her music.

Of course, Gerard and Shakira broke up during the summer of 2022, with rumors of infidelity swirling as the pair went their separate ways.

X / @HelianHdz

Shakira's path has taken her out of Spain and down to Miami where she's made fast friends with David Beckham -- who she said she knew back before she started dating Gerard, when DB played for Barcelona's rival, Real Madrid.

The Colombian star said she's in constant contact with Victoria Beckham ... and she's hoping to take her son Milan to a soccer match down in Miami -- leaving dear old dad totally out of the equation.

Shakira stayed above the whole Piqué fray during the interview BTW -- though she did admit it seemed like cosmic justice that one of his old soccer rivals Sergio Ramos presented her with a Latin Grammy.

She also skipped over talking about her tax fraud case -- instead choosing to focus on her first studio album in seven years, "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" which translates to "Women No Longer Cry" ... bit of a wink and a nudge to a certain ex?

In any case, seems Shakira's finally focused on herself again ... and Gerard better be on the lookout for bitter fans who might've wanted an album a bit sooner.

James Charles Congress Too Focused on TikTok ... Bigger Problems to Fix!!!

Congress' potential TikTok ban isn't sitting right with some people ... especially influencers it's going to affect like James Charles -- who absolutely trashed the government.

The controversial social media star was at the 35th annual GLAAD Awards and -- while walking the red carpet -- he was asked about the potential TikTok ban that just passed through the House of Representatives.

Charles didn't mince words ... doing on an expletive-laden tirade that's sorta taking social media by storm at the moment where he laments the number of issues the U.S. is facing -- and makes it clear he doesn't think TikTok is one of them.

JC points out that the TikTok bill is relatively new to the discussion table ... whereas lots of other bills have languished in front of the governing body for years.

James says -- if nothing else -- that should show people Congress really can get things done ... but, only when it's something that truly benefits them.

Charles says this is exactly why people need to get out and vote ... especially important given that it's an election year, he says.

As we reported ... the bill calls upon ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, to sell off the social media platform or lose access to the American market anyway -- and it passed in a rare bipartisan landslide, moving to the Senate on the back of a 352 to 65 vote.

Anyhoo, Charles' reaction to the bill's passing is generating some buzz online ... and -- while most people agree he's in the right -- many of them are giving him kudos begrudgingly ... oftentimes making it clear they're not big fans of his.

Hey, sometimes ya gotta give it up when someone seems to be speaking for a whole generation.

Greg Vaughan Soap Opera Star Hospitalized ... Fluid in Lungs From Altitude Sickness

Greg Vaughan's recovering after a scary illness sent him to the hospital ... and, it turns out it's all because he got too high, too fast.

The soap opera star -- best known for playing Eric Brady on nearly 1,000 episodes of "Days of Our Lives" and Lucky Spencer on over 600 episodes of "General Hospital" -- posted a couple photos from earlier this week of him hooked up to an oxygen machine.

Vaughan assured fans he was doing just fine before but had to rush to an urgent care after getting hit with a really bad case of altitude sickness.

GV says he took his kids to Breckenridge, Colorado for a skiing and snowboarding trip, but started feeling tired, congested, and short of breath just a day into what was supposed to be a fun, relaxing vacay.

Greg says he popped some NyQuil and drank a ton of Pedialyte ... but that didn't fix the problem, and he ended up heading down the mountain to seek some medical attention.

While he thought the issue wasn't going to be anything too serious ... Vaughan's lucky he didn't try and tough through this illness -- 'cause he says the oxygen level in his blood was at a paltry 54% and fluid was filling his lungs.

Vaughan says they hooked him up to a couple IVs and told him it was probably best he head for some lower altitude.

Greg's ultimately using his experience as a teaching moment ... telling people the Rockies are no joke -- so be careful on your next ski trip.

From "General Hospital" to generally hospitalized ... glad you're feeling better, Greg!

Diddy Supporting Kanye at Rolling Loud ... 'WLM' Beef Wrapped Up???

Diddy and Kanye West haven't been on good terms for a while ... but, now it seems they might be mending their relationship -- 'cause Diddy pulled up to Kanye's Rolling Loud set!

BACKGRID

The rapper/producer made a rare public appearance Thursday at the show in Los Angeles and walked into KW's performance alongside his twin daughters, Jessie and D'Lila Combs.

Check out the vid ... Diddy brought his whole crew to the set -- he always rolls deep -- and appeared to pull up as Ye's and Ty Dolla $ign's "Keys To My Life" played over the speakers.

And Diddy made the evening a whole family affair ... 'cause he was also spotted in the back/side stage area with his son Justin while watching the controversial performance.

The show certainly had people up in arms ... 'cause instead of performing live, Kanye and Ty stood onstage and just played recordings of their songs -- leaving lots of fans disappointed.

Unclear how Diddy felt about the show ... or if he and Ye sat down for a conversation -- 'cause they kinda gotta clear the air about their viral 2022 beef.

Remember, Puffy sat down for an interview on "The Breakfast Club" where he called Kanye's hella controversial White Lives Matter t-shirts "tone deaf" back in 2022.

Well, Kanye didn't like that one bit, and he ultimately shared some private messages between him and Diddy -- including one where he accused Diddy of being sent by Jewish people to threaten him.

Diddy wanted to meet in person ... but Kanye called him a federal agent and threw in a big "f*** you" for good measure.

It was all pretty unhinged ... and it seemed the two hadn't made up -- at least not publicly. But, now with Puffy at the show, ya gotta wonder if some words have been said behind the scenes.

So are the two officially burying the hatchet ... or did Diddy's kids just really wanna see Ye? Vote below!

Teresa Giudice & Luis Ruelas Lockin' Lips Outside L.A. Eatery ... New 'RHONJ' Season Will Expose 'Liars'

Teresa Giudice and her husband Luis Ruelas look like they're in a never-ending honeymoon phase ... 'cause the pair just can't keep their hands off each other.

The lovestruck couple went out to eat at Nusr-Et Steakhouse in Beverly Hills Friday night, and they packed on the PDA ... lockin' lips for the whole block to see.

Check out the pics ... the duo's clearly connecting well here -- literally and figuratively -- while grabbing a high-quality bite to eat.

It's all a bit shocking given one of the most recent 'Real Housewives' trailers ... which appeared to show them fighting amid supposed trouble at home -- including someone claiming Louie's blowing all their money.

A photog asked the couple about married life in light of all that, and the two had nothing but glowing comments to make about their relationship.

Ruelas said the two are so much better than good ... in fact, he says they're so happy people feel the need to try and tear them down.

Check out the vid ... TG says she's excited for the new season of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" to come out because everyone telling lies about them will finally be exposed ... going as far as saying she's finally going to be vindicated.

Meanwhile, the happy couple's stayin' busy in L.A. with Giudice working on a project she's keepin' secret for now ... while Ruelas is rolling out Vinivia -- a new platform for influencers that he says could fill space left behind by TikTok.

Seems like they're putting those rumors to rest ... happy smooching, you guys!

Honey Boo Boo Mama's Got No Money For Me ... Jewelry Over My College???

"Mama June: Family Crisis" is staying true to its name ... 'cause Mama June and Honey Boo Boo are fightin' over money -- specifically cash for college.

On Friday night's episode of the hit reality TV show, Mama June told her daughter Alana -- better known as Honey Boo Boo -- that she didn't have the money to help pay for her college tuition ... info that totally shocked the rest of the family.

While MJ said during the ep that she couldn't give her daughter any money because she's still trying to rebuild her finances, Alana pointed out she spent money on her husband Justin Stroud's thick gold chains.

Alana's not the only one feeling like Mama June's cheaping out when it comes to her BTW ... her sister Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird called out her mom for not helping Alana during a confessional.

122923_mama_june-kal 12/29/23
SPEAKING NONSENSE

Remember ... Lauryn and her husband Josh took on caring for Alana while Mama June was in the throes of her drug addiction -- so, it's not surprising LE's taking her sis' side on this one.

Honey Boo Boo basically summed up her feelings in a later confessional ... straight-up saying Mama could help everyone else, but when it came to her, she said her mom's never got anything for her.

BTW ... Alana started college back in the fall. She's studying nursing at Regis University in Colorado, and she says she got a $21,000 scholarship -- enough to make a dent in those college expenses for sure.

As for the dent in her relationship with Mama June ... unclear if they've worked that one out yet.

Celine Dion Looks Terrific In New Family Pic ... Amid Health Disorder

Celine Dion is bouncing back from her debilitating health issues, posting a photo on Instagram that shows her looking strong with her three sons by her side.

On Friday night, the iconic singer uploaded the happy pic to her IG account, which captured Celine with a beaming smile, while standing with her arms around two of her sons as the third sat before them.

The siblings, Rene-Charles and twins Nelson and Eddy -- were also grinning ear to ear, seemingly indicating their mom is feeling better.

In the caption, Celine provided an update on the prognosis for her disorder, Stiff-Person Syndrome, after first recognizing that it was SPS Awareness Day.

Celine wrote that she was diagnosed with SPS in 2022 and has been trying to overcome the autoimmune disorder ever since, highlighting that it's one of the hardest experiences of her life.

But she gave hope to her millions of fans, saying that she is determined to one day return to the stage to perform and to "live as normal of a life as possible."

She also expressed deep gratitude for the love and support she has received from family members and other supporters. She ended with words of love and encouragement for anyone impacted by SPS, vowing to beat the disease together.

You may recall ... Celine was forced to pull the plug on her tour after she made a video announcement that she was suffering from SMS at the end of 2022. Her condition has prevented her from being able to perform.

However, she was met with a standing ovation last month at the Grammys when presenting Album of the Year -- an award that went to Taylor Swift.

Per Johns Hopkins Medicine ... SMS is defined as a rare autoimmune neurological disorder that most commonly causes muscle stiffness and painful spasms that come and go and can worsen over time.

Elon Musk Compares Don Lemon To 'Wonka' Brat ... Amid X Show Drama

Elon Musk upped the ante in his ongoing beef with Don Lemon, comparing him to Veruca Salt — the bratty child in the 'Willy Wonka' films.

In a Friday night post on X, the billionaire mogul wrote, "Don 'Veruca Salt' [lemon emoji]" linking the former CNN moderator to the spoiled girl character, who whined about wanting things from her wealthy dad throughout the famous 1971 flick.

As you know, the bad blood between the two men stems from Elon canceling Don’s contract to host his own TV show on the X social media platform, which is owned by Musk.

Earlier this week, Elon got pissed at Don after they sat down for an interview that was scheduled to appear on X, but never did.

Don asked some questions that rubbed Elon the wrong way, prompting Musk to terminate the deal they had together before the show even aired.

Don then went on CNN – his former employer – to discuss what happened with host Erin Burnett. A few clips of the Elon interview were aired, giving a window into the line questioning that annoyed Musk. Hate speech on X and Elon's ketamine use were among the topics talked about.

The New York Post reported Friday that Don issued a list of demands to Elon during contract negotiations, including a free Tesla Cybertruck and $8 million with $5 million paid upfront.

Cara Delevingne Looks Shattered After Mansion Devastation

Friday was a very tough day for Cara Delevingne after her $7 million L.A. mansion burned to the ground – and the devastation was written all over her face.

Check out these photos obtained by TMZ ... Cara looked shattered in the backseat seat of a car, leaving the Kit Kat Club at the Playhouse Theatre in London following her performance in "Cabaret" Friday night.

In one snap, the model placed a hand against her head while seemingly staring into space as her mother, Pandora, seated beside her, tried to comfort her.

Other pictures showed a side view of Cara inside the car, covering her face with her arm. Cara's dad, Charles, also came out to show much-needed support for his daughter after the devastating blaze.

She had first insinuated her 2 cats had perished in the fire, but she later clarified on Instagram her felines were just fine. Still no word yet on how the kittens were rescued.

The Los Angeles Fire Department's arson unit is investigating, but, we're told, that's just SOP.

YG Still Hot And Heavy With Saweetie ... Dashes Break Up Rumors

YG squashed rumors he and Saweetie called it quits ... bringing her out onstage at Rolling Loud California and professing his love to her.

The rapper was performing at the hip hop festival in Inglewood Friday night when he stunned the crowd by sharing the mic with Saweetie after the two reportedly broke up in January.

Check out the vid ... YG was rubbing up behind Saweetie and nuzzling her as he wrapped his arms around her body.

After their brief, sexy interlude, Saweetie started walking off stage as YG followed her, repeatedly saying, "I love you, girl."

Well, there you have it, folks. Rumors officially squashed!

As you know, YG and Saweetie were first spotted packing on some PDA in May 2023 while vacationing at a resort in Cabo, Mexico -- getting photographed sucking face poolside.

Fast forward to January 2024 ... The Shade Room reported the pair amicably ended their 7-month relationship.

But, the next day, YG responded by posting an older video of him and Saweetie getting cozy at a Beyonce concert, suggesting they were still an item.

And now we know they are.

Bill Maher People, You're Not all Clinically Depressed Rails on Bogus Mental Health Diagnoses

031624_bill_maher-kal
SADDY PROBLEMS
HBO

Bill Maher has had it up to HERE with lots of people who have self-diagnosed themselves with mental health issues when they actually have none.

The 'Real Time' host says lots of people have confused depression and other mental health issues with the game of life.

BM is quick to say there are indeed folks with real clinical depression and other mental issues, but it's almost become trendy to glom on to these diagnoses without ever getting evaluated by a medical professional. In fact, he says 75% of American adults who are on antidepressants have never been diagnosed.

He cites Elmo -- yes, Elmo -- who recently asked on social, "How's everybody doing?" The responses were unreal -- as Bill says, it became a suicide hotline.

Maher's not saying some of these cries for help are not real ... just that some/many are way overblown.

Check out the vid and judge for yourself.
