Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom popped their cherries at Usher's Florida concert Thursday night, swallowing the fruit as part of a game in front a ton of excited fans!

The famous couple attended Usher's gig at Kaseya Center in Miami, but they weren't the only bold-faced names in the audience.

Jeff Bezos and fiancée Lauren Sanchez -- who turned 55 Thursday -- also attended the show with Usher at one point going into the crowd to give Bezos a high five.

Wendy Williams is dealing with her own health issues, but she's still an active mom ... making a rare public appearance to support her son at his college graduation.

The former TV talk show host was photographed out in Miami Thursday ... driving around the area on a mobility scooter in a fashionable silver and black dress.

Check out the pics ... Wendy's riding around, flanked by a couple armed guards -- a wide-eyed look on her face while driving around "The Magic City."

Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr are getting back to where they once belonged ... onstage together in the UK!!!

The Beatles stars made their surprise reunion on Thursday night at the O2 Arena in London, all apart of McCartney's "Got Back" tour, which has gone across Europe and Latin America.

McCartney introduced his former bandmate as, "The one and only Mr. Ringo Starr!" Needless to say, the crowd went absolutely wild.

Pornhub will no longer be available in Florida ... a major response to a new state law requiring age verification to visit adult platforms -- and one porn star tells TMZ the stand is a double-edged sword.

Here's the deal ... Pornhub's parent company, Aylo, opted to block access to horny Floridians rather than comply with the law taking effect on Jan. 1, requiring a state ID be shared to prove that would-be lookers are 18.

Maitland Ward tells TMZ ... Pornhub is "not perfect" and could do more to ensure minors are not viewing the free site, but as she sees it -- Florida tracking people's porn habits is a slippery slope that'll make horndogs mighty uncomfortable.

Applauding Pornhub's stance, which is seen as standing for free speech, Maitland anticipates the decision will push more people to paid sites of stars and, of course, OnlyFans.

Still, MW points out that by pulling out of Florida, the popular Canadian-based site is alienating a huge population that might hold a grudge ... in only one of the four states where it is legal to film professional porn ... so the decision is a big deal.

Paid sites require a credit card, so sharing an ID with that information does not seem as invasive ... but again -- PH is free, so uploading a driver's license is seen as going too far.

Chris Jericho is set to defend his Ring of Honor World Championship Friday in NYC ... and the self-proclaimed "King of New York" tells TMZ Sports he is prepared to go all out in his main event match against Matt Cardona!!

Babcock caught up with the legendary wrestler ahead of the ROH Final Battle PPV -- a showdown Jericho believes is the biggest opportunity his opponent has ever had in his career.

"Win, lose, or draw, this is the biggest stage he has been on in a long time," he said. "I'm expecting a great match from him. But he knows what to expect from me, which is one of the greatest of all time as the world champion in the main event."

While kids are certainly trying to make their way onto Santa's nice list, plenty of parents -- including your favorite celebrities -- are being a little naughty by pranking their children into behaving well this holiday season.

We're, of course, referring to the annual Elf on a Shelf tradition ... where parents discreetly hide Santa's helper around the house in order to keep an eye on the kiddos -- and report back to the North Pole on who is being naughty or nice.

Now, if you aren't sold on the parenting hack, just know your favorites, like Jason Biggs and Zooey Deschanel, are going all out during the Christmas season with their Elf on a Shelf high-jinks.

Before this wickedly cool kid turned into an a-list celebrity -- touring around the world and hittin' the big screen -- she was just dressing up in her finest Dorothy costume, posing in front of the tree and singing Christmas carols all day and all night ...

Growing up in Boca Raton, Florida she enjoyed dancing, acting and singing from a young age. She's entertained on the big stage for over a decade, but perhaps her biggest dream came true, recently starring as the popular girl in town!

John Mayer has officially purchased the Jim Henson studio lot ... and he appears to have a clear vision on how he wants the studio to look in the future ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Mayer and producer/director McG have finalized their deal to buy the iconic Jim Henson Studio. Despite previous reports claiming the deal was in the $60 million range, our sources say it closed for around $45 million.

We're told Mayer will oversee the recording studio, and McG will manage the other facilities on the lot.

Over the years, the Henson recording studio has been home to music's biggest acts including Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney, Ozzy Osbourne, The Supremes and more. It's also where "We Are The World" was recorded.

We're told a name change for the studio is coming ... though an exact name has not been decided on yet.

However, renaming the Jim Henson studio may be the biggest change coming under new ownership. We're told Mayer and McG are set on keeping the studio running with no major changes — including keeping the same staff.

We're told preserving the history of the building means everything to the duo -- and so does making sure it stays the premier recording studio on the West Coast for years to come.

As we reported ... last month, Mayer and McG went under contract the buy the historic Hollywood property. Mayer already has a connection to the property -- holding offices in the building.

We confirmed with the ADL the username its people observed was @targetedbloodsport -- and according to them, the account featured the phrase, "Totally nice day," similar to "Totally normal day" ... which the ADL claims is used by racists or white supremacists.

MrBeast is being defended by a renowned Egyptian archaeologist ... who clarified the YouTuber didn’t spend the night at the Great Pyramids of Giza while filming for an upcoming video.

Egyptologist Dr. Zahi Hawass, the country's former Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, tells TMZ that MrBeast did pay a small fee to film in the Pyramids for 7 days in early December -- but made it clear to us that no amount of cash would've let them sleep inside the ancient structures.

Instead, Dr. Hawass tells us the YouTuber was allowed to shoot his project in the Pyramids once public touring was concluded each day, and then would go sleep at a camp set up 3 to 5 miles away. We're told this is standard protocol for folks looking to film at the Pyramids -- so, there was no special treatment going on for MrBeast.

Lizzo got candid with Keke, saying she had always appreciated them as dancers ... so when they suddenly turned on her, hitting her with legal complaints while she was living her dream, it came as a complete surprise to her.

Rankins tells us that -- outside of the actors he personally worked with -- he had no idea who would be in the film ... so no indication he would star alongside Beyoncé, her daughter Blue Ivy, Thandiwe Newton or the like.
