Actress and former Miss Dominican Republic Massiel Taveras has a lot to say about the 2024 presidential election outcome -- and she’s letting TMZ know she’s thrilled with the results.

Catch the video -- Massiel’s all but waving a Team Trump flag with her celebratory energy ... she's not holding back on why she thinks Kamala Harris' star-studded support squad did little to help her campaign.

Massiel dives deep ... saying she thinks with God on your side, all the Hollywood backing in the world doesn’t matter.

Vice President Kamala Harris may've lost the 2024 Presidential Election, but her future is still looking bright ... the politician could rake in the dough with speaking engagements.

Darren Prince, the CEO of Prince Marketing Group, tells TMZ ... the VP could easily bring in $200K to $250K per speaking engagement after her highly publicized presidential campaign.

Per Prince -- who represents celebs like Magic Johnson, David Goggins, and Hulk Hogan -- it wouldn't be hard to book Harris for gigs around the world ... she'd just have to talk about her life and experiences, which she already did on the campaign trail.

The MLB's best two-way player is down to just one arm for the time being ... Shohei Ohtani had shoulder surgery this week -- and as you can see, one of his wings is now immobilized by a sling.

Ohtani went under Dr. Neal ElAttrache's knife on Tuesday in L.A. to repair the labrum he tore while trying to steal a base in Game 2 of the World Series -- and on Thursday, he appeared in OK spirits.

Rockin' a burnt-orange cap and a pair of sweats, Ohtani's left arm was held close to his body by a big ol' brace -- but he didn't seem to be too hindered.

Dua Lipa's pulling a "Houdini" ... disappearing from the stage in Indonesia before the show even begins -- 'cause she says it ain't safe enough for her to perform.

The singer-songwriter announced she's canceling Saturday's show in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, about 5 hours ago ... telling fans she's enjoying the beautiful country and is ready to perform -- but a safety issue with the staging is stopping her from doing so.

DL says she was really looking forward to the show, and she's super disappointed she can't jam out with her fans in the country ... saying it especially hurts 'cause she hasn't performed in the country in a long time. She last reportedly played there in 2019.

Andrew Yang says Kamala Harris made a major misstep during the campaign ... claiming she should've spent a few hours in Austin, Texas -- speaking to Joe Rogan!

The 2020 presidential candidate stopped by "TMZ Live" Friday to talk about why Democrats performed so poorly in this election ... and, we asked him if he thinks Kamala messed up by turning down an interview on "The Joe Rogan Experience."

Yang says she totally messed up by turning down the show ... 'cause Joe reaches millions of people -- many of them voters Harris didn't already have in the bag.

10:15 AM PT -- A family source confirms to TMZ ... Bhad Bhabie does have cancer. She's currently under the care of a doctor.

Bhad Bhabie issued a cryptic message that has many of her fans concerned, implying that she may have cancer.

Bhabie, AKA Danielle Bregoli, hopped on Instagram Thursday and posted, "I'm Sorry my cancer medicine made me loose [sic] weight. I'm slowly gaining it back. So stop running w the worst narratives."

Of course, it's a mystery what all that means ... but Bhabie recently revealed her dramatic weight loss in photos she posted to her social media accounts.

Mark Wahlberg says the fire at his Mexican food restaurant in Las Vegas wasn't so bad ... 'cause it never got into the building -- and, his funky bunch opened it an hour after the fire.

We talked with the actor on "TMZ Live" and he set the record straight ... explaining a firepit malfunctioned and went up in flames -- officially making Flecha Cantina the "hottest restaurant in the world" according to Wahlberg.

Joking aside, MW explains the fire was outside the building ... and only appeared to scald the indoor dining room because of the reflection coming off the windows.

Alan Ruck is weighing in on the results of the 2024 presidential election ... sharing his belief that "misogyny" played a role in Kamala Harris' big loss.

We caught up with the "Succession" star at LAX after the election, and he admitted he was feeling blue after watching the Vice President lose to President-elect Donald Trump at the ballot box.

However, as Alan told us, he isn't dwelling too hard on the disappointing outcome ... expressing a hope to "get through" the next 4 years.

The 2025 Grammy Nominations were announced Friday and as expected, Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" is being considered for some of the biggest honors!!!

Kendrick's monster diss record against Drake raked in 5 nominations ... Song and Record of The Year, Best Rap Song and Performance, and Best Music Video -- the last nom being a double win for K. Dot.

He co-directed the visual with Dave Free!!!

It's no surprise Kendrick is set to headline next year's Super Bowl halftime show ... "Not Like Us" is the No. 1 song on Billboard's Hot Rap Songs chart with 21 weeks at the top ... in addition to debuting on top of the Hot 100.

It's wild to think Kendrick could go down in history for calling Drake a pedophile on digital wax -- but, if you remember, we caught up with Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. right after the song took off and he had a hunch Grammy voters would be leaning toward it.

The Grammys go down Sunday, Feb. 2 in L.A. -- a week before Kendrick takes the Super Bowl stage.

Tobias Dorzon -- a former NFL running back-turned-celebrity chef -- was shot during an alleged attempted robbery Tuesday night in Maryland ... and now police are searching for four people involved in the violent act.

Dorozon -- along with a female acquaitance -- were shot as they were returning from dinner, according to a statement from cops. They were taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, per a report.

Lil Durk was charged with 2 additional felony counts in his murder-for-hire plot on Friday ... the Chicago rap star is being accused of conspiracy and using interstate facilities to assist in the assassination of Quando Rondo's cousin.

Feds outlined the new charges and are essentially treating Durk as the kingpin of the operation in a superseding federal grand jury indictment.

Durk and his 5 co-defendants have yet to enter a plea ... the charges are stemming from the August 2022 shooting outside a Los Angeles gas station close to the Beverly Center shopping mall.

The 2025 Grammy nominations gave props where they're due, but also had some jaw-dropping snubs -- including of Ariana Grande.

The singer's seventh album, "Eternal Sunshine," got the cold shoulder in the Album of the Year category -- a major miss that kinda steals the spotlight from her 3 other noms. But, with all the "Wicked" movie buzz this year, she was probably too busy to go full throttle on promo, so that might’ve played a part.

It wasn’t just Ariana -- Dua Lipa, a Grammy darling since her 2019 Best New Artist win, also didn’t snag a single nomination for her album, "Radical Optimism."

Donald Trump's got a new pack watching his back ... 'cause new video shows robot dogs keeping a close eye on the president-elect.

New video taken at Mar-a-Lago shows the robotic rovers prancing across the lawn ... check it out, they're patrolling outside the club, looking for danger. No need for the dogs to go feral on anyone in this clip -- but, they're ready to sic some bad guys if they try to get at Trump.

We've confirmed with a Secret Service source ... these are assets used by the agency, equipped with surveillance technology and a ton of sensors to beef up their protective operations.

Teddi Mellencamp's soon-to-be ex-husband is responding to her recent divorce petition ... and, he's specifically saying they've got a prenup he wants the court to enforce.

Edwin Arroyave filed a response to Teddi's divorce petition in Los Angeles Friday ... listing the date of separation as November 1 despite Teddi's claim they split on October 20.

Arroyave is also claiming there’s a premarital agreement in place ... which he wants to be enforced when it comes time to divvy up the assets.

Beyoncé's country crossover has really paid off -- she’s finally getting some award season love for "Cowboy Carter" ... 'cause she's infiltrated some major country categories in the 2025 Grammys!

After Queen Bey's massive award season snubs earlier this year, she’s just bagged a whopping 11 Grammy nominations, making her officially the most-nominated artist this year -- and of all time.  Among the big nods -- Best Country Performance for "16 Carriages," Song of the Year for "Texas Hold 'Em," ... and, most impressively, Album of the Year.

Beyoncé's "Tyrant" didn't quite make the cut for Best R&B Song this year, marking her only submission that didn't earn a nomination. But with all her others, it’s safe to say it's a pretty spectacular Grammy season for her -- with all the country love a long time coming.

Taylor Swift has made history with her latest Grammy nomination ... becoming the first female artist to be nominated for Album of the Year 7 times.

The pop star was previously tied with music legend Barbra Streisand for the honor ... as they both previously achieved 6 nominations in the top Grammys category.

However, with the release and critical success of her 11th studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department," Swift nudged past Streisand.
