Adele's getting the gold medal in Olympics obsession ... 'cause it seems she's so into the event she put her entire show on pause -- all to watch an 11-second race.

The singer-songwriter performed in Munich, Germany Saturday ... and, in the middle of the show she took a break to watch the women's 100-meter final -- broadcasting it on the stadium's massive screens

A hush falls over the crowd as the race begins ... taking just under 11 seconds for Julien Alfred from Saint Lucia to win the gold. U.S.A. stars Sha'carri Richardson and Melissa Jefferson took silver and bronze respectively.

Simone Biles took another step toward co-owning a gold-medal record ... but, she's going to need to be perfect over her last two events to etch her name in history once more.

The most decorated U.S. gymnast in Olympics history won a gold medal in the vault final Saturday ... the seventh gold medal of her career, putting her just two away from tying the record of nine gold medals -- the most of any female gymnast.

If you haven't watched the event yet -- spoiler alert -- but, it's worth checking out anyway, 'cause Simone's still pulling off moves the world's barely ever seen ... some named after her BTW.

California's furry felines will be out in force all weekend at CatCon -- but one person who probably won't be making a cameo is J.D. Vance!

As you know, Donald Trump's Republican VP pick put his foot in his mouth in a recently resurfaced 2021 interview with then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson in which he referred to Kamala Harris and other U.S. leaders as "childless cat ladies," mainly on the Democratic side.

Of course, Vance's statement didn't sit well with Kamala -- the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee -- and other liberals who have blasted the Ohio senator ever since the clip started circulating again.

Morgan Wallen gave a big treat to his fans at his Kansas City show Friday night – bringing out none other than hometown Super Bowl champions Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.

Check out the vid ... Morgan led the NFL stars through a hallway inside the arena while "WHISKEY WHISKEY," Wallen's collaborative song with Moneybagg Yo, played in background.

9:23 AM PT -- Kamala just responded to Trump’s invitation to debate him on Fox News — and it’s an unequivocal no. She also says Trump is running scared because he originally agreed to the ABC debate with whomever the democratic candidate is and now he’s backing out. She ended by claiming that she would be happy to entertain future debates, but only after the ABC showdown.

Donald Trump just told Kamala Harris “I’m in,” agreeing to debate his Democratic presidential rival and all but promising it will be one wild event.

The Republican presidential nominee posted a Friday night message on his Truth Social platform explaining that he wants to meet Kamala on stage in Pennsylvania for a televised debate that would air September 4 on Fox News.

DT requested a live audience unlike in his first debate on CNN with then Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. Speaking of whom, DT threw a jab at the Commander in Chief on Truth Social, calling him by his Trump-given nickname “Sleepy Joe.”

The U.S. Department of Defense pulled the rug out from under 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed — rescinding his plea deal that would have spared his life.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin axed the plea agreement that was put in place earlier this week between KSM and the overseer of the war court in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, where the Al Qaeda terrorist and his alleged accomplices are being prosecuted.

As you know, KSM and Osama Bin Laden plotted the attacks on the World Trade Center and other American targets, resulting in nearly 3000 people being killed on Sept. 11, 2001. In 2011, Bin Laden was fatally shot by Navy Seals during a U.S.-led special forces raid on his Abbottabad, Pakistan compound.

Burbank PD tells TMZ Wesley was arrested Wednesday ... after they pulled over his black Hummer H2 in Burbank for a traffic violation and asked him for his ID. Officers say they found out Scantlin had an active warrant from a previous case for allegedly having a weapon at an airport.

We’re told when officers asked Wesley to get out of the car, he refused … and after several attempts, a crisis negotiator came to negotiate, but cops say he still wouldn’t budge.

In fact, Zay performed at Larsa's 50th birthday bash a few weeks ago ... and TMZ obtained video of them dancing together.

The judge in Alec Baldwin's manslaughter case in New Mexico is ripping prosecutors for misconduct, which she says prevented the actor from preparing his defense.

In new docs, obtained by TMZ, the judge who dismissed the case against Alec says the prosecution "intentionally and deliberately" withheld evidence from Baldwin's legal team ... namely, live ammunition found on the "Rust" movie set matching the live bullet that killed Halyna Hutchins.

Remember ... during the trial, police investigator Marissa Poppell testified her superiors instructed her to create a report documenting that police had received ammunition and to file it under a different case number than the "Rust" case ... so it wouldn't be visible to the defense.

Bigfoot enthusiasts think they've spotted their man (or animal) in an old documentary that they're digging back up and taking a hard look at ... and honestly, it might be Biggie!

The clip is from the 2001 film "Great North" -- filmed near the Arctic Circle -- and it got posted/circulated on a Bigfoot lovers' Reddit page ... and people online are buzzing about a shadowy figure running upright behind a herd of caribou ... which they think is a sasquatch.

The reappearance of this scene has stirred up the old debate of whether it's real or not -- especially since the film’s director, William Reeve, admitted eight years ago on the YouTube page ThinkerThunker he didn’t notice the mysterious figure until 15 years after filming.
