Britney Spears isn't estranged from all of her relatives these days -- she's still got her brother, Bryan Spears, in her corner ... who's actually with her in Mexico as she parties it up.

The pop star shared a brief sneak peek at a recent getaway south of the border she was on -- or still be in the middle of -- Thursday by posting a video that shows her having a good time with her older bro ... and from the sounds of it, they might be knocking back drinks.

In the clip ... Britney can be seen filming a group of musicians, but then there's a jump cut of her standing next to Bryan in the middle of a town, and he says -- "Let's go to the bar."

Hulk Hogan isn't ruling out Mike Tyson in his forthcoming match against Jake Paul ... noting the boxing legend still has a lot of fight left in him.

We got the WWE legend on "TMZ Live" Wednesday, where he shared his thoughts on Mike and Jake's highly anticipated fight ... which has been rescheduled for November following MT's health scare last month.

As Hulk put it ... the health incident on the plane was merely a minor setback, reminding viewers the legendary boxer is known as "Iron Mike Tyson" for a reason.

Danny O'Donoghue says a night out with Tom Jones ended with him in the hospital ... 'cause he couldn't keep up with the legendary crooner -- despite being 40 years younger!!!

The singer -- best known as the front man of The Script -- says he once tried to go drink-for-drink with Jones while they both starred on the UK version of "The Voice" in the early 2010s.

O'Donoghue says he and Sir Tom hit a hotel in Manchester one night and started drinking champagne around midnight -- and, they didn't stop until around 6 AM.

50 Cent and Rep. Lauren Boebert hung out at the White House during the rapper's visit to Capitol Hill ... and there are some definite flirty vibes in the air, or so it seems.

Fiddy and the Colorado Republican cheesed for the cameras Wednesday in D.C. ... and as you can see, they're locked into a pretty snug embrace here and flashing some huge smiles to boot. So yeah, they're definitely cozy.

Boebert fired off the first flirty social media post ... telling 50, "I'd still love you if you flipped burgers at Burger King ... I used to do that myself! Thanks for the photo, great to meet you!"

Kathryn Dennis' recent DUI isn't the only legal woe on her plate, but it is the only one that's pressing at the moment ... 'cause a hit-and-run case her car was involved in is still in limbo.

Here's the deal ... the "Southern Charm" star might've recently been involved in a DUI bust in South Carolina -- but there's another case that has ties to her (or her vehicle, more like) in the same state ... in which her car is alleged to have been involved in a hit-and-run.

This happened way back in October -- Kathryn was identified as a suspect in a hit-and-run investigation after a sheriff’s deputy was injured outside an elementary school ... although she was never arrested or charged with a crime because they couldn't pin her as the driver.

If Luka Doncic was hopin' his viral moment with a postgame beer Thursday night would lead to some free suds ... he can stop holding his breath -- 'cause TMZ Sports has learned the company that makes the beverage says it's got no plans to send a care package his way.

A rep for Fulton Beer tells us while they appreciated that Doncic grabbed one of their Lonely Blonde ales following the Mavericks' big Game 5 win over the Timberwolves, they're not hooking him up -- because, simply, they're fans of the losing team!

The company is actually based out of Minnesota ... so, needless to say, Doncic can stop waiting for an on-the-house goodie bag of the tasty brews now.

Luka Doncic just wanted to enjoy a cold one after leading the Dallas Mavericks to the NBA Finals, but Michael Finley had other plans ... smoothly jacking the superstar's beer in a hilarious moment.

The 25-year-old Slovenian hooper and his teammates celebrated the franchise's first Western Conference title since 2011 on Thursday ... easily handling the Minnesota Timberwolves in Game 5 of the series, 124-103.

Naturally, the Mavs were in great spirits after clinching a matchup with the Boston Celtics ... but when Luka posted up alongside his pops and sipped a blonde ale during the postgame festivities, the former pro-turned-exec intervened.

Jelly Roll's sober strategy involves just a dash of drugs ... 'cause he says he needs marijuana to live a clean lifestyle -- claiming without it he'd go back to harder stuff in a heartbeat.

The singer-songwriter opened up about his coping mechanism during an interview with Taste of Country ... admitting he smokes weed to stay away from other drugs he's used in the past.

JR says, "I think a world without weed, Jelly Roll’s drinking codeine and popping Xanax and snorting cocaine again, but a world with weed, I’ll be alright" -- it's a bold statement, and Jelly admits it's a hot-button issue to argue Mary Jane keeps him sober.

Reality TV star Kathryn Dennis had a total meltdown after she was pulled over for drunk driving in South Carolina ... and her dramatic tear-filled arrest was all caught on video.

The former "Southern Charm" star was not so charming during her leading role in this police dashcam footage obtained by TMZ. Cops raced to the scene Monday following her 3-car collision in Goose Creek, SC.

Police say Kathryn was intoxicated behind the wheel of her vehicle with "glossy eyes" and alcohol on her breath, leading to her getting booked for DUI.

Morgan Wallen's paying the price for his bad behavior -- his recent arrest means he won't be seeing his name in lights outside his swanky new Nashville bar.

Nashville's Metro Council says the country singer's chair-throwing shenanigans have tarnished the city's rep -- and as a result, he won't get a neon sign outside the bar ... a la Garth Brooks, Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan and every other country crooner who has a downtown bar.

The Council voted overwhelmingly against letting Morgan's name join the neon club -- only 3 members were on board, while 30 gave it a hard pass.

Elle King's finally addressing her flubbed Dolly Parton performance in full ... chalking up the alcohol-infused moment to dealing with difficult issues in her life -- and, praising DP's grace.

The singer hopped on Chelsea Handler's podcast "Dear Chelsea" when she ruminated on the disastrous January performance ... calling the incident a huge mistake and diving into the lead-up to the show.

EK says she'd been going through something major at the time ... and the day of the performance was significant in whatever this major trauma was. She didn't get into detail about what exactly was troubling her ... but whatever it was caused her PTSD, she says.

3:14 PM PT -- Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ, Brad Pitt's side is scoffing at Tenute's countersuit -- as they feel they only tried getting into the Chateau Miraval biz because of his name-recognition and deep involvement with the company ... which they're now trying to smear.

We're told Chateau Miraval is only as successful as it is because of how Brad has run it -- and the notion he plundered it for his own personal gain is absurd and nonsensical ... as it would only hurt him if he did the things they're claiming he did.

Bottom line ... we're told BA feels Tenute (a subsidiary of Stoli Group) is blowing hot air that it's tried litigating in other courts to no avail -- and that Brad isn't sweating their accusations.

LeBron James put the wine in Wine and Gold on Monday ... hitting up the Cleveland Cavaliers' home playoff game against the Boston Celtics with an entire bottle of vino in hand.

The local hero hit up his old stomping grounds to catch the Game 4 matchup at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse ... and when Bron, Savannah and his agent, Rich Paul, made their way to their courtside seats, the folks in attendance showed their appreciation for the Cavs legend.

The team even gave James a special shoutout on the Humongotron ... with a brief montage of his Cavs career highlights, including Cleveland's thrilling 2016 NBA Finals win over the Golden State Warriors.

Kylie Jenner and her supermodel sister Kendall Jenner made quite the splash on social media when they puckered up for some pictures and shared the sibling selfies on Instagram.

The Calabasas locals are bosses of more than a fishy-faced photo … Kendall pours it out in the business world with her 818 Tequila brand ... while her lil’ sister Kylie sprang to billionaire status with her self-titled cosmetics brands, and also launched her Sprinter vodka sodas.

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.

Jana Kramer called out the fact Travis Kelce is a bit of a party animal -- something she doesn't think is a great quality ... and which she hopes doesn't rub off on Taylor Swift.

The "One Tree Hill" star crapped on the Chiefs tight end on her podcast, "Whine Down," where she made a pretty scathing comment about Travis' nightlife habits ... namely, the fact he seems to enjoy a beverage or two while out on the town.

She says, "To me, he’s always drunk. Every time I’ve ever seen a video he’s just always drunk." JK then pivoted to Taylor ... saying she hopes T-Swift doesn't follow his lead.
