Cillian Murphy's looks over the years have earned him a BIG STANDING O!

Here is a 26-year-old version of the fresh-faced fella at the premiere of "Intermission" -- just one of his many iconic films -- back in 2003 (right). This was one year after he rose to prominence with his breakout role in "28 Days Later."

And, 21 years later and just coming off a golden win at last weekend's Globe Awards, Mr. Murphy put his icy-blue eyes on full display (left) and proved he can STILL GET IT with his plump lips and defined facial features.

Clearly, he's doin' something right, but the question is ...

¡Los looks de Cillian Murphy a lo largo de los años le han valido una GRAN ovación!

Aquí vemos a un joven de 26 años con un rostro fresco en el estreno de "Intermission", una de sus muchas e icónicas películas, en 2003 (derecha). Esto fue un año después de que saltara a la fama con su papel en "28 Days Later".

Y, 21 años después y habiendo recibido una victoria en los Globos de Oro el pasado fin de semana, el Sr. Murphy exhibió sus ojos azules como el hielo (izquierda) y demostró que TODAVÍA PUEDE CON SUS labios carnosos y rasgos faciales definidos.

Claramente está haciendo algo bien, pero la pregunta es ...

Escondida en esta foto hay una señora de Livingston, Nueva Jersey, que ha estado haciendo reír desde principios de los 2000. Puede que sea la más joven de 6 hermanos, ¡pero sin duda dice lo que piensa y deja caer el micrófono! ¿Adivinas quién es?

A esta cómica le encanta esquiar por la montaña (¡pero hacerlo en topless, por supuesto 😜)! Y, cuando no está compartiendo sus viajes en las redes sociales, disfruta encender un cigarrillo y acurrucarse con Bert y Bernice.

Concealed in this mashed-up photo is a lady from Livingston, New Jersey who's been providing laughs since the early 2000s! She may be the youngest of 6, but she definitely speaks her mind and drops the mic! Can you guess who she is?

This comedian loves a good ski run down the mountain (but do it topless of course 😜)! And, when she's not sharing her travels on socials, she enjoys lighting one up and snuggling with Bert and Bernice.

Forget the dating rumors about Jeremy Allen White and Rosalía ... the two are officially item because we caught them embracing in an intimate kiss!

The couple was photographed going out Thursday for a walk to buy a pack of cigarettes in downtown Los Angeles. During their trip, Rosalía got passionate with Jeremy as he stood back against a car.

Check out these images, obtained by TMZ ... the lovebirds left no doubt about their relationship status, locking lips as Rosalía wrapped her arms around Jeremy. In other pictures, the pair clutched each other tightly and held hands as they strolled down a city block.

Of course, rumors about their budding romance have been swirling for a while. Last month, Jeremy was spotted giving the Spanish singer a few pecks on the cheek while cuddling in the cold December breeze in Westwood.

In October 2023, they were seen out at the Santa Monica farmers market where Jeremy's arms were overflowing with flowers.

This past week, though, Jeremy went solo to the Golden Globes, where he snagged the award for Best Performance by a Male Actor in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy for his role as chef Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto in the Hulu series, "The Bear."

Olvídate de los rumores de romance entre Jeremy Allen White y Rosalía. ¡Los dos son oficialmente pareja porque los pillamos abrazados y dándose un beso íntimo!

La pareja fue fotografiada el jueves por la noche mientras daba un paseo para comprar cigarrillos en el centro de Los Ángeles. Durante el trayecto, Rosalía se apasionó con Jeremy mientras este se apoyaba contra un carro.

Echa un vistazo a estas imágenes obtenidas por TMZ, los tortolitos no dejaron ninguna duda sobre su estado sentimental, acercando sus labios mientras Rosalía envolvía sus brazos alrededor de Jeremy. En otras fotos, la pareja aparecía muy abrazada y tomados de las manos mientras paseaban por la ciudad.

Por supuesto, los rumores sobre su incipiente romance han estado dando vueltas durante un tiempo. El mes pasado, Jeremy fue visto dándole a la cantante española unos cuantos besos en la mejilla mientras se abrazaban en Westwood.

En octubre de 2023, fueron vistos en el mercado de agricultores de Santa Mónica, donde los brazos de Jeremy estaban rebosantes de flores.

Esta semana pasada, sin embargo, Jeremy acudió en solitario a los Globos de Oro, donde se llevó el premio al Mejor Actor en una Serie de Televisión Musical o Comedia por su papel de Carmen "Carmy" Berzatto en la serie de Hulu, "The Bear".

Browns legend Josh Cribbs has come down with Joe Flacco Fever ... but diagnosis aside, he believes the NFL's Comeback Player of the Year award still belongs to Damar Hamlin ... telling TMZ Sports he believes the Bills safety earned the recognition after resuming his NFL career this season.

38-year-old Flacco has exceeded all expectations since joining the Browns in November ... leading Cleveland to a 4-1 record after Deshaun Watson and Dorian Thompson-Robinson went down with injuries.

Despite helping the Browns reach the playoffs, Cribbs -- who had nothing but praise for the former Super Bowl MVP -- says Hamlin's story is simply too special to pass on when the league recognizes players at the end of the season.

"Right now, I say it's Damar Hamlin," Cribbs told us this week. "He came back to life on the field. He came back to life to play back again in the NFL. He is a player who essentially lost his life on the football field."

Of course, Damar saw a bit of action in the 2023-24 season ... a special moment for the player and the entire NFL after he suffered cardiac arrest against the Cincinnati Bengals on Jan. 2.

"For him to have lost his life on the field and then came back, I definitely would give it to Damar Hamlin," Cribbs says.

The former return specialist gives Flacco his flowers, though ... commending the guy for going from "being on the couch with a beer" to becoming Cleveland's improbable hero.

Cribbs has full confidence in Flacco's abilities to take the Browns deep in the playoffs ... but even if they make it to the Super Bowl, he says it'll be Watson's team no matter what next season.

Cribbs backs his belief ... saying considering the Browns are paying Deshaun a massive contract, there's no way he isn't under center in 2024.

"Flacco is the now, Deshaun is no question the future," Cribbs said. "Not because of what he did in Houston, not because of what Flacco is doing right now. He's the future because he's got $230 million guaranteed. So, there is no discussion about it. He is the quarterback of the future."

Ava DuVernay's just like the rest of us ... thrilled that Angela Bassett's finally bagged an Oscar at the Governors Awards, but she's also clarifying it's its own thing -- separate from an Academy Award at the big show.

TMZ got the director out in NYC, where she made the distinction between the Governors Awards and the prestigious, world-renowned Academy Awards coming up in 2 months ... where bagging a shiny gold statuette is the pinnacle of every actor's career.

Ava says it was high time for the Academy to honor Angela's body of work. Of course, she's also been nominated for 2 acting Oscars -- Best Actress for 1993's "What's Love Got To Do With It" and Best Supporting Actress for 2022's 'Wakanda Forever' -- but has yet to win one.

With that said, Ava -- who's one of the Academy Governors herself -- was thrilled to witness Angela get this well-deserved recognition ... and made it clear the Governors Award and Academy Awards are separate entities.

She also raves about getting to watch Ms. Bassett do her thing, and was especially inspired by her acceptance speech.

As for Angela ... she was stoked to be highlighted -- urging fellow Black actresses to think of who their ancestors intended them to be ... telling them to remain courageous.

She also paid tribute to the empowered women she's represented in her roles -- real queens like Tina Turner, Rosa Parks and Coretta Scott King ... and, of course, Wakanda's fictional Queen Ramonda.

Ava DuVernay es como todos nosotros... está encantada de que Angela Bassett finalmente haya recibido un Oscar en los Governors Awards, pero también aclara que no es exactamente el verdadero premio.

TMZ se reunió con la directora en Nueva York, donde hizo la distinción entre los Governors Awards y los prestigiosos y mundialmente conocidos Premios de la Academia que se celebran dentro de dos meses, donde llevarse una brillante estatuilla dorada es el pináculo de la carrera de todo actor.

Así que si usted está celebrando que Angela finalmente se ganó un Oscar después de perder en 2 nominaciones anteriores -en 1993 con "What's Love Got To Do With It" y en 2022 con "Wakanda Forever", Ava está diciendo, momento... este aún no es el real.

Sin embargo, Ava nos dice que está muy feliz de que su "hermosa hermana" haya sido reconocida por su trabajo en general en la ceremonia de los Governors Awards, donde su amiga Regina King le entregó el premio.

Ella también delira sobre poder ver Angela hacer lo suyo en el escenario y dijo que se sintió especialmente inspirada por su discurso de aceptación.

Angela instó a sus compañeras actrices negras a pensar en lo que sus antepasados querían que fueran, diciéndoles que sigan siendo valientes.

Kevin Hart dice que nunca lo verán abriendo la ceremonia de los Oscar como anfitrión, porque mientras le va bien haciendo sus rutinas de standup para arenas llenas y estadios, dice que un teatro lleno de estrellas es una audiencia difícil para los comediantes.

Han pasado 5 años desde que Kevin renunció a la actuación después de que salieran a la luz viejos tweets homofóbicos, pero no es por eso que está dando este consejo. Más bien, se está refiriendo a algo que Jo Koy podría haber aprendido de la forma más difícil.

Kevin dice a Sky News que los Oscar lo hicieron bien un año -el 2019, el año en que se echó para atrás- al usar a un grupo de personalidades para co-presentar la ceremonia durante toda la noche, pero no han vuelto a esa fórmula.

Él admite que tendría una ventaja como anfitrión de galas de premios, porque tiene relaciones con varios de los invitados. Pero dice que para otros es una molestia.

Básicamente, dice que los días de los comediantes como anfitriones de los premios, al menos cómodamente, han terminado. Jo Koy podría estar de acuerdo con eso después de que sus chistes sobre Taylor Swift y las "grandes tetas" de Barbie no cayeran nada bien en los Globos de Oro.

Kevin estaba apoyando a Koy, sin embargo, y dijo que ahora hay demasiada presión en lo que se considera una broma y lo que no.

Jimmy Kimmel vuelve por cuarta vez a los Oscar este año. Él ha sido relativamente suave hasta ahora, así que vamos a estar atentos a su nuevo repertorio de chistes.

Por cierto, tenemos otro gran comediante para opinar sobre el manejo de Jo, a saber, Anthony Anderson y parece concordar con Kev en lo difícil que es actuar en unos premios.

Kevin Hart says you won't ever see him opening up the Oscars as the host, because while he's fine doing standup in packed arenas and stadiums -- he says a theater full of A-listers is a tough room for comedians.

It's been 5 years since Kevin stepped down from the gig after old homophobic tweets surfaced, but that's not why he's advising other comics against the job ... instead, he's referring to something Jo Koy might've learned the hard way.

Kevin tells Sky News the Oscars got it right one year -- 2019, the year he backed out -- by using a bunch of personalities to cohost the ceremony throughout the evening, but they haven't gone back to that formula.

He admits he'd have an advantage hosting award shows, because he has so many established relationships with the guests -- but he says for others, it's a grind.

Basically, he says the days of comics hosting award shows, at least comfortably, are over Jo Koy might agree with that after his jokes about Taylor Swift and Barbie's "big boobs" bombed at the Golden Globes.

Kevin had Koy's back, though ... saying there's too much pressure now on what's considered jokes and what's not.

Jimmy Kimmel's returning for his fourth stint at the Oscars this year ... he's been relatively tame so far, so we'll be watching to see how his fresh batch of jokes go over.

BTW, we got another big-time comedian to weigh in on Jo's handling of the job -- namely, Anthony Anderson ... and he seems to be in alignment with Kev here on how tough of a gig these types of award shows are.

As he told us at LAX this week ... you get with your writers and do the best you can with the amount of time you're given. In Jo's case, he says he had about a week before showtime. Noted!

Amy Sedaris ended up on the floor at the National Board of Review Awards Gala, but the actress/comedian did what she does best ... and turned the fall into some comedic gold.

Amy was at the NYC event Thursday night, presenting Paul Giamatti with the award for Best Actor for his work in "The Holdovers" -- but the excitement turned into a bit of panic when she took a tumble while walking away from the podium.

Paul quickly rushed over to help the "Elf" actress, but it must not have hurt too bad, at least at the moment ... because she jokingly stayed flat on the floor while Paul returned to his speech, getting a big laugh from the star-studded crowd.

The NBR's Instagram page even poked light-hearted fun at Amy's fall -- sharing another angle of her on the floor next to Paul, writing, "Paul Giamatti literally floored presenter Amy Sedaris with his nuanced comic performance." Well played, NBR.

As for the wins, Lily Gladstone and Martin Scorsese took home Best Actress and Best Director awards for "Killers of the Flower Moon," Mark Ruffalo won Best Supporting Actor for "Poor Things," Bradley Cooper was bestowed the NBR Icon award, and Paul's costar Da'Vine Joy Randolph went home with the Best Supporting Actress award.

Other big names in attendance were Michael J. Fox, Zac Efron, Elizabeth Olsen, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Ethan Hawke, Daniel Day-Lewis and many more.

Fat Joe, Wyclef Jean and Jelly Roll used their combined musical talents to spread more awareness for their Power to the Patients healthcare advocacy ... by bringing the message right to Congress' doorstep.

The artists performed last night at Hamilton Live in D.C. for about 500 Congressional and government officials, and TMZ Hip Hop got video from inside the show.

The trio's message was clear -- they're all calling for President Joe Biden to act immediately!!!

Wyclef corralled members of Congress onto the stage and passed them the mic while having them chant to Biden, "Power to the Patients" much to the amusement of Joe in the back ... pretty funny stuff.

Jelly Roll is coming off his Best New Artist win at the CMTs, but flexed his hip hop roots performing Eminem's "Lose Yourself" ... a motto he's applied to his career given his recent success.

Sources at the event tell us Joe, Clef and Jelly all met backstage and shared their fondness for each other's careers -- we hear Joe in particular is a huge fan of JR's "Need A Favor" hit from last year.

Robert Downey Jr.'s joking about Robert De Niro's reaction to RDJ's win at the Golden Globes and hooking us up with a great soundbite -- even just for the sake of being glib.

We got the "Oppenheimer" star Wednesday outside "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and our photog asked him about De Niro mistakenly standing up when the winner for Best Supporting Actor was being read. It was a quick little mix-up on Bob's part -- but people definitely noticed.

In case you missed it ... RDJ and RDN were both up for the same award -- Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in any Motion Picture -- which went to "Robert ... Downey Jr." When De Niro heard "Robert" though, he started to stir in his seat ... almost as if he'd won ... only to be let down when a different last name followed.

RDJ's having fun with it all here, telling us ... "Nothing's better than losing."  Mind you, he was doing this in the middle of signing autographs and shooting the s*** a bit.

He's joking, of course, and the reason we know that is because we asked what he meant -- with Downey Jr. adding ... "I just wanted to give you a good quote." Indeed, it was!

Looks like RDJ's still in good spirits after the big win for his role as Lewis Strauss in "Oppenheimer" ... he didn't just bless us, but he also gave autograph hounds what they wanted too. He also walked away with a big fat peace sign for the whole gang.

Selena Gomez is going dark yet again on social media -- this after a somewhat messy moment at the Golden Globes ... which Selena says is much ado about nothing.

The pop star/actress announced she was stepping away from her online accounts Tuesday -- writing ... "I'm off social for a while. I'm focusing on what really matters." She posted a quick clip of her boyfriend, Benny Blanco, playing with some kiddos ... presumably family.

Two things ... this is just the latest "break" that Selena has taken amid public scrutiny/backlash -- not to mention the latest declaration that she must step away. Remember, she did something similar recently amid the Israel-Hamas war, among other times.

Second ... this just further confirms that Selena's serious with BB -- after Sunday's show, she posted a shot of them smooching backstage, so she's not shying away from the relationship.

While some of her fans are certainly supporting her, others are for sure rolling their eyes.

Fact is ... a social media pause doesn't really need to be announced -- and yet, for whatever reason, SG continues to feel like she needs to broadcast her personal plans to the world.

Of course, this comes after she denied the gossipy convo seen 'round the world at the Globes -- where Selena was telling Taylor Swift something juicy ... which everyone perceived to be about Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner. She said that was BS, as did he.

Tim told us straight up that he has no issue with Selena, and strongly suggested neither did his boo -- even though not everyone has been convinced of that based on their history.

Selena Gómez se está yendo a negro una vez más en las redes sociales, después de un momento un tanto desordenado en los Globos de Oro, que Selena dice que en realidad es mucho ruido y pocas nueces.

La estrella del pop y actriz anunció que se alejaba de sus cuentas el martes, escribiendo: "Voy a dejar mis redes por un tiempo. Me estoy centrando en lo que realmente importa". Ella publicó un clip rápido de su novio Benny Blanco jugando con algunos niños, presumiblemente familia.

Dos cosas ... Este es solo el último "descanso" que Selena se toma en medio del escrutinio público y contragolpe, por no hablar de la última declaración de que se alejará. Recuerden, ella hizo algo similar recientemente a causa de la guerra entre Israel-Hamas.

En segundo lugar ... Esto confirma que Selena va en serio con Benny Blanco después del show del domingo. Publicó una foto de ellos besándose en el backstage, por lo que no está rehuyendo de la relación.

Aunque algunos de sus fans la apoyan, otros están poniendo los ojos en blanco.

El hecho es que una pausa en las redes sociales en realidad no necesita ser anunciada, y, sin embargo, por la razón que sea, Selena Gomez sigue sintiendo que tiene que difundir sus planes personales al mundo.

Por supuesto, esto viene después de que ella negara el supuesto cotilleo que vio todo el mundo en los Globos de Oro, en donde Selena le estaba contando algo jugoso a Taylor Swift que todo el mundo percibió que se trataba de Timothée Chalamet y Kylie Jenner. 

Ella dijo que era mentira, al igual que él.

Tim nos dijo directamente que no tiene ningún problema con Selena y sugirió fuertemente que tampoco su novia, a pesar de que no todos están convencidos de ello.
