A Boeing 737 had to quickly brake when the plane's engine looked like it was starting to fall apart ... and the whole ordeal was caught on video.

The Southwest Airlines flight, heading from Denver to Houston, took off Sunday morning ... when some of the passengers noticed a piece of metal ripped off the side of the plane and flapped around as the plane began its takeoff.

Check out the video ... the engine cowling covering the sides of the giant turbine flies up, seemingly only held together by a few strands of stray metal -- at first, not slowing down the jet one bit.

C.J. Snare -- better known as the lead singer of hard rock band FireHouse -- has died ... TMZ has confirmed.

Snare's daughter, Heather, tells us ... her father passed away Friday afternoon after a lengthy cancer battle. She says his official cause of death is cardiac arrest.

Snare helped form FireHouse in 1987 after his former group -- Maxx Warrior -- broke up. He stayed with the band for nearly 40 years until his death.

Miley Cyrus' family has lots of cross-connections with exes, and Miley's sister Noah Cyrus is the latest to cross-connect ... with Liam Hemsworth.

Liam posted a thirst trap pic of his chiseled bod with veins on his biceps so big they look like they might explode. And guess who liked the pic -- yep, Noah.

As you know, there's history here, folks. Miley dated/lived with Liam for years and married him in 2018. The marriage lasted less than 2 years and it was not a Paltrow kind of breakup, for sure. So Noah liking the post is, well, problematic.

Instagram model Jade Ramey is squarely saying Diddy accuser Rodney Jones is lying that she was a sex worker for the rap mogul.

Ramey acknowledged to ET she had a relationship with Diddy, but ... "Dating someone doesn’t directly correlate to any of the false allegations made."

She wasn't done ... "How unfortunate we’ve entered a time where caring for someone or falling in love is worthy of scrutiny in the court of public opinion. What may be amusing for you is real life for others, and my feelings have never been for entertainment, nor are they up for discussion."

Don Lemon finally got hitched to his longtime fiancé, Tim Malone, Saturday night ... and a bevy of TV and other stars came out to see the fancy ceremony in NYC.

The former CNN host married Tim at Manhattan's Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church five years after Don first announced their engagement on Instagram.

The two looked spiffy dressed in their suits and bow ties with velvet jackets. They also brought along their two cute white pooches to watch them exchange their vows.

Jason Kelce's luchador mask after the Chiefs' Super Bowl win wasn't a one-time thing -- the recently retired NFL star donned the look once again ... making a surprise appearance at WrestleMania!!

The future Hall of Fame Philadelphia Eagles center and his former teammate, Lane Johnson, crashed the party amid legend Rey Mysterio and Andrade's tag-team match against Dominik Mysterio and Santos Escobar on Saturday ... helping the former duo get the victory.

Of course, Kelce famously rocked a similar look after his brother, Travis, won the world title over the San Francisco 49ers in Vegas back in February ... wearing a wrestler mask as he chugged beers alongside Taylor Swift.

The raids on Diddy's L.A. and Miami homes may've made national news ... but real estate tycoon Josh Flagg isn't convinced the legal drama will impact the value of the properties.

We caught up with the "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" star ... who says Diddy's residences are still worth a pretty penny -- despite being tied to a sex trafficking investigation conducted by Homeland Security.

Josh, an L.A. native, speaks about the Bad Boy Records founder's Holmby Hills estate, which Diddy scooped up for $40M in 2014. The broker boasts it's centrally located in the A-list neighborhood and is in good condition ... aside from the feds trashing it during the raid.

A "Bring It On" sequel seems more possible by the day with Kirsten Dunst even talking about it ... and another cast member told us she'll don her pom poms again ... on one condition.

Nikki Bilderback -- who played Whitney in the hit 2000 movie -- tells TMZ ... she'd absolutely do a sequel provided it comes with a good script and the other ladies sign on.

NB says the movie needs to hold its own because so many generations of fans love the film. She says she gets fans from 12 to 50 telling her how much they love the flick ... and she doesn't want to let them down.

Baron Davis is in favor of Bronny James' decision to declare for the NBA draft ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks it's very possible LeBron's kid turns out to be a far better pro than a college basketball player.

The former Clippers star gave us his thoughts on the matter out at LAX on Friday afternoon ... just hours after Bronny said he'll test the NBA waters while leaving the door open for a return to school.

Davis said he could see Bronny getting picked up by an org despite a quiet freshman season at USC ... explaining the pro game simply might fit him better.

The Rock proved ring rust is just a myth on Saturday -- returning to the squared-circle for the first time since 2016 at WrestleMania 40 ... and ending the epic match with the win!!

The Final Boss and Roman Reigns paired up against Cody Rhodes and Seth "Freakin'" Rollins in a tag-team match to cap off WWE's first night of festivities ... and the whole thing was fireworks from start to finish.

In fact, action broke out outside of the ropes numerous times ... and Cody and Seth were in for a world of pain, as Rock -- a real-deal exec with WWE's parent company, TKO -- made it clear to the ref early on ... if he counted, he's fired.

The comic book where Batman first swooped onto the scene has set an impressive milestone ... netting its highest public sale since it first graced newsstands nearly 85 years ago.

Detective Comics #27 fetched a jaw-dropping $1.825 million on auction site ComicConnect -- and TMZ can reveal this ain't the buyer's first rodeo, 'cause while this is the most expensive version of the comic in his collection, it's not the first copy he's purchased.

This savvy collector believed so much in the rarity and demand of Batman's first appearance in comics back in 1939 ... he recently shelled out over a half mil for a lower-grade version.

And, once you've taken down these shredded bods, we dare you to take on a civilized round of Who'd You Rather with this year's WrestleMania pros!

Lauren Graham's remembering her almost-boyfriend Matthew Perry ... specifically, the last birthday gift she ever got from him -- and, it reflected his own passion.

After giving his thanks to the crowd, MW decides to crack a joke ... saying he'd keep hold of the record until Swift eventually came to the stadium in the fall.
