Teresa Giudice is dishing on how she scored a rare selfie with Taylor Swift at Coachella ... without even being a Swiftie.

Remember, the 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' star was in the same VIP section as the singer at weekend 1 of the music festival. Still, as Teresa recently told E! News ... she almost didn't approach Taylor, out of fear she'd bother the Grammy winner, especially since she wasn't a Swiftie.

Apparently, we have Teresa's husband Louie Ruelas to thank for the iconic pic ... as Teresa admitted he was the one who encouraged her to speak to Taylor. She added, "Jennifer Aydin [who’s] on my show, she loves her. I’m like, ‘All right. I’m doing this for Jennifer Aydin.'"

Prince Harry was without his Royal family during his Invictus Games event in London this week -- but he wasn't a man without a country ... 'cause the British public showed up.

The Duke of Sussex attended his big shindig at St. Paul's Cathedral Thursday to help ring in the 10-year anniversary of his famous charity -- and while he didn't have his dad, brother, or any other working Royal in attendance to help him celebrate ... he still powered through.

Harry showed up with a smile on before and after the commemoration ... and he even did a public walkabout to shake hands and exchange pleasantries with Britons on the ground.

Yet another Boeing plane is in the news again after multiple mishaps in recent months -- and this time ... it ended with the aircraft partially on fire ... and people running for their lives.

Check out this wild footage that shows a 737 tilted off a runway at the Blaise Diagne airport near the capital of Dakar Thursday -- and more importantly ... shows flames shooting out from the left engine as emergency crews rush over to put the fire out.

It's pretty dramatic, as you can actually see people fleeing from the scene as they rush to get out of the airplane -- and yes, it's an absolute panic ... appropriately so, considering what's going on.

Kelly Osbourne had many of her fans scratching their heads Thursday, believing she was Kim Zolciak because it was virtually impossible to tell the two apart.

Here’s what happened … celebrity hairdresser Laura Rugetti posted a photo of Kelly on Instagram, which was the spitting image of Kim --  hair, face and all.

Talk about having an AI moment — but the only difference was Kelly’s picture was actually real and it faked out a bunch of her fans who rushed to comment on her headshot.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard believes in her heart of hearts she's Taylor Swift's new muse -- she's convinced one of the singer's new songs is all about her, or at the least ... inspired by her.

Sources connected to Gypsy tell TMZ ... GRB thinks Taylor’s new song "Fresh Out The Slammer" -- from her 'Tortured Poets Department' album -- might be about her December release from prison.

The reason she even suspects that ... we're told Gypsy sees a lot of similarities between the song lyrics and her real life -- almost to a T.

Jenelle Evans is looking for a fresh start amid her split from husband David Eason, and that has her considering a big move ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Jenelle is thinking about a move from North Carolina down to Florida after visiting the Sunshine State last week. We're told she toured 2 or 3 homes in the Central Florida area ... not too far from fellow 'Teen Mom' star Briana DeJesus.

This explains why Jenelle and Briana were recently spotted together, but we're told she isn't planning a full-time return to the 'Teen Mom' franchise ... despite her recent appearance in a trailer for "Teen Mom: The Next Chapter."

Jana Kramer said Travis Kelce is "always drunk" and a bad influence on Taylor Swift -- but she might as well be J Lo to Mariah Carey for him ... 'cause he doesn't even know her.

Sources connected to Travis tell TMZ ... he's taken aback by her inflammatory comments about him on her podcast -- where she characterized him as a party animal and as someone who reminded her of an ex ... in a bad way.

We're told Travis has never met Jana ... and before Tuesday, he wasn't familiar with her whatsoever -- even though she's technically famous from her "One Tree Hill" days, etc.

Cardi B thinks anyone who's offended over her not being able to ID the designer of her dress is faking outrage ... and she's got an explanation for the brain fart.

ICYMI ... Cardi had a bit of a deer-in-the-headlights stare when Emma Chamberlain -- representing Vogue -- interviewed her on the carpet Monday ... and came up empty-handed on the designer's exact identity, and referring to them only by their ethnicity.

The dress was put together by Chinese designer, Sensen Lii of Windowsen -- but Cardi wasn't able to come up with the name in the moment ... referring to them as "Asian and everything."

7:05 PM PT -- Jerry Seinfeld's changing his tune on Howard Stern, and he's issuing a mea culpa to his old pal. He tells TMZ ... "I really feel bad for what I said about my friend Howard Stern in a conversation with David Spade and Dana Carvey, talking about the glut of comedy podcasts."

He adds, "I meant to say he must feel surrounded but I said 'outflanked' which sounded terrible and insulting. And of course, none of these little shows are any threat to his giant show. Anyway, it was bad and I’m sorry, Howie. I still love you. Please forgive me."

Jerry Seinfeld acknowledges Howard Stern is the OG king of sitting around and recording conversations for air -- but says he just ain't all that funny in the age of modern podcasting.

Travis Kelce's entertainment endeavors won't be a problem within the Chiefs' locker room ... so says fellow acting athlete Thomas Q. Jones, who believes the Kansas City tight end's teammates will have zero issue with him pursuing his Hollywood dreams.

TK landed a role in Ryan Murphy's new horror series, "Grotesquerie" ... adding to his growing list of ventures off the gridiron -- including hosting "Saturday Night Live" and the new "Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?" game show.

Jones -- who's built quite the impressive acting résumé himself after retiring from the NFL in 2011 -- joined Charles and Courtney on "TMZ Live" to discuss the three-time Super Bowl champ's news ... and he thinks there are only positives that'll come of it.

It's starting to heat up as we hurtle toward summer, and we've got more hot takes to boot. Check out the best from the Wednesday that was!!!

Jaleel White -- who famously played Steve Urkel -- absolutely did do that ... finally tying the knot with his longtime partner in a gorgeous country club ceremony over the weekend.

Here, KS name-drops Robbie and Maggie Gyllenhaal -- claiming studios like to make one of their films to pat themselves on the back and call it a great day for diversity.
