Donald Trump is getting called out in court for allegedly lying in the middle of the last presidential debate -- not about politics or Kamala Harris, but about the "Central Park Five."

The 5 men who were wrongly accused of a violent series of attacks in Central Park back in 1989 are taking issue with something Trump said on Sept. 10 in Philadelphia, during the debate with Harris.

If you recall, Harris brought up Trump calling for the execution of the Central Park Five ... something he did in a full-page ad in multiple newspapers, including the NY Times, after they'd been arrested in '89.

Kendrick Lamar is finally addressing his chart-topping Drake diss "Not Like Us" -- in true Gemini fashion ... there's a time for peace and a time to fight!!!

The future Super Bowl halftime performer was asked what "Not Like Us" meant to him by his longtime friend and "All The Stars" collaborator SZA for his Harper's Bazaar cover story Monday ... he says "Not Like Us" embodies his persona!!!

"'Not Like Us' is the energy of who I am, the type of man I represent," K. Dot told SZA with a laugh. "Now, if you identify with the man that I represent  … This man has morals, he has values, he believes in something, he stands on something. He’s not pandering."

Kim Kardashian's adding another candle to the cake, and she's wasting no time -- already kick-starting the bday festivities bright and early!

The reality queen took to her IG Stories Monday, flaunting some seriously sizzling shots in a skintight nude dress she cheekily dubbed "Birthday Suit" -- because if Kim's gonna turn 44, she's doing it with a bang.

The dress, a jaw-dropping piece from Diesel's Spring/Summer 2024 collection, retails for a cool $2,081 -- and clearly loving the look, Kim couldn’t resist sharing another snap, this time zooming in for a close-up of her cleavage.

Britney Spears is flipping the script and putting herself first after a few marriage misfires ... dropping a bizarre post where she revealed she actually married herself -- and proudly called it one of her best decisions ever.

In classic Britney style, she shared one of her signature disjointed clips Sunday, rocking a white lace slip dress and veil for full bridal vibes, spilling the tea in the caption that her fairytale "I do" to herself actually went down a little while back.

Britney wrote, "The day I married myself … Bringing it back because it might seem embarrassing or stupid, but I think it's the most brilliant thing I've ever done!!!"

Rick Singer is owning up to his role as the mastermind behind the notorious "Varsity Blues" college admissions scandal ... but he’s already back to advising wannabe students while serving his sentence.

The controversial figure, serving the rest of his 3.5-year prison sentence in a California halfway house, told 'GMA' that even right after the scandal broke -- when it was revealed he was helping rich kids pay for special admission into elite colleges -- desperate parents were still flooding him with requests to pull the same strings for their own children.

Rick made it clear that after his prison sentence is complete, he’s confident he can legally kick-start his business again, helping students get into colleges or enter the workforce -- especially since he’s already doing it right now.

Sunday Night Football came to a halt late in the third quarter last night ... when a fan with a Pro-Donald Trump sign ran on the field -- all while the former U.S. President was in the building!

The woman's sign read ... "TRUMP SECURE BORDER" and "KAMALA OPEN BORDER"

Ultimately, security corralled the fan (who people are saying is IG model Claudia Rose) near the 50-yard line ... and she went without a fight.

Addison Rae is giving her best Britney Spears impression for her latest outing in Los Angeles ... with one very special accessory rounding out the look.

The Internet personality stepped out in L.A. with friends Sunday, rocking platinum blonde hair, denim cutoff shorts, a white T-shirt twisted into a little top, and tan heeled boots ... an ensemble eerily similar to one Brit rocked in the early '00s.

The outfit could've easily been a tribute to the legendary pop star ... as Addison also carried around a can of Pepsi as she hit the streets in her racy day look.

Liam Payne's girlfriend Kate Cassidy is stepping back into the public eye after the tragic death of her pop star boyfriend.

The late singer's love has been spotted for the first time since the One Direction alum fell to his death in Buenos Aires, Argentina last week ... and the influencer appears to be keeping a low profile in the wake of the tragedy.

Kate, who had been dating Liam for about 2 years before his death, was seen out and about in Florida Sunday, where she ran an errand to grab some dog food not far from her Palm Beach abode.

It was a bad night to be a bottle of booze in the Dodgers' clubhouse Sunday -- 'cause L.A. deleted more than a few to celebrate its huge NLCS victory ... with Shohei Ohtani leading the way!!

Check out how the MLB superstar and his teammates celebrated their Game 6 win over the New York Mets ... they took down container after container of alcohol in epic fashion.

Ohtani was seen spraying down his pals with multiple liters of champagne ... before several other Dodgers returned the favor, and poured Budweisers down his throat.

Liam Payne's sister Nicola is hoping the singer has "finally found peace" after he fell to his death in Argentina last week.

The One Direction alum's older sister posted on Instagram in the aftermath of Liam's death ... paying tribute to the late pop star and revealing her initial reaction to the tragic news.

As Nicola put it ... she learned of Liam's passing through a news notification on her phone, which left her hoping the update was "untrue."

She added ... "I have spent days hoping that it was a mistake and somebody got it wrong. You were truly too good for this earth, you are an angel who just lived for making people smile and happy. You have always shown kindness to everyone you met and it shows with just how many people have confirmed what we always knew!"

As Nicola continued, she declared herself and the rest of the Payne family Liam's "biggest fans always and forever" ... praising her little brother for his "brilliant" talent and dedication.

Before signing off her note, Nicola promised to keep Liam's legacy alive, especially for the singer's son, Bear ... who he welcomed with Cheryl Cole in 2017.

She noted ... "We will make sure Bear knows about his daddy and how much you loved him, we promise this."

Nicola's tribute comes shortly after Liam's other big sister, Ruth Gibbins, posted to social media, in which she apologized for not being able to "save" the singer.

Countless others have honored Liam in the wake of his passing, too ... including Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Simon Cowell, Ed Sheeran and Rita Ora.

As TMZ previously reported, Liam fell to his death from a third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires last Wednesday. The singer had been in Argentina to support his former 1D bandmate Niall's concert at the Movistar Arena earlier in the month ... ultimately choosing to extend his visit.

Police have said Liam jumped from his hotel balcony ... and that a possibly hallucinogenic drug, called "cristal," may be to blame. However, police are waiting for final test results for substances found in Liam's hotel room before confirming. The investigation is ongoing.

Diddy says he's the victim of pure character assassination by witnesses and their attorneys in his federal criminal case -- and he claims it's depriving him of the right to get a fair trial.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Diddy says he has a constitutional right to a fair trial, but he's not gonna get one if his detractors -- namely his multitude of accusers and their lawyers -- don't stop flapping their gums to reporters.

As you know, Diddy was arrested in September on federal charges of racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion, and transportation for purposes of prostitution. He faces a possible life sentence in prison if convicted.

Portnoy was so excited, his "BFFs" podcast posted the letter Sunday on Instagram with a caption that read,  “What a gift from @taylorswift to @stoolpresidente at last night’s Eras Tour.

Aaron Rodgers threw two picks on the field on Sunday night and then added one more off of it -- as cameras caught him diggin' for gold in his nostrils right on the sidelines of the Jets game.

Check out footage from NBC's "Sunday Night Football" broadcast ... as Rodgers and his New York squad were getting pounded by the Steelers in Pittsburgh, the signal-caller took a few swipes at his nose.
