Fuentes policiales nos dicen que la llamada inicial para el control de bienestar la realizó un miembro del equipo Smart de la policía de Los Ángeles (un grupo que se encarga de las evaluaciones mentales). Los policías tomaron la decisión de ir a la casa de Britney Spears porque la persona realmente tenía algún conocimiento de Britney y su situación y no era sólo un fan.

Una vez que los oficiales llegaron, hablaron con la seguridad de Britney y les aseguraron que ella estaba bien pero no quería hablar, así que se marcharon.

El abogado de Britney llamó a la policía más tarde ese día y les preguntó acerca de la visita. Le aseguraron que sólo hicieron la visita porque la llamada fue hecha por alguien que conocía a Britney y que no hacen los controles de bienestar siguiendo las llamadas de los fans.

El último truco de Instagram de Britney Spears fue lo suficientemente llamativo como para hacer que la policía fuera a su casa para asegurarse de que estuviera a salvo.

Fuentes policiales nos dicen que recibieron una llamada el miércoles expresando preocupación por Britney en base a su reciente conducta en las redes sociales. Nos dicen que los oficiales estaban familiarizados con el video del cuchillo, así que por precaución, los oficiales del Departamento del Condado de Ventura salieron a la casa de Britney.

Nos dicen que Britney estaba en casa y que los oficiales pudieron hablar con ella y determinar que estaba bien así que se marcharon.

Fuentes directas nos dicen que varias personas llamaron a la policía después de que Britney publicó el video del cuchillo. Uno de ellos es una persona que le tuvo que hacer un control a Britney en el pasado y se alarmó.

La situación no es tan sorprendente dada la preocupación expresada por la seguridad de Britney esta semana después de que ella publicó un video de sí misma bailando con dos cuchillos. Spears afirmó que los cuchillos eran falsos, pero sonaban bastante reales cuando los golpeaba.

En otro video, publicado una hora después de que Britney mostrara sus habilidades con los cuchillos, aparecía con un corte en la pierna y un vendaje alrededor del brazo.

Aunque ella no dijo específicamente cómo sufrió las nuevas lesiones, muchos creen que fueron causadas por los cuchillos. Suponemos que esto fue lo que causó las llamadas a control de bienestar.

Fue a principios de este año cuando los policías realizaron un control de bienestar en la casa de Britney después de que los fans se preocuparon por su seguridad cuando su cuenta de Instagram desapareció. Britney estaba bien, más tarde reactivó su cuenta y le dijo a los fans que apreciaba su preocupación pero que todavía estaba molesta por tener a la policía presente en su casa.

Como ya hemos informado, los fans de Britney también se han preocupado por sus perritos. Las mascotas parecían asustadas en el fondo de su video con cuchillos pero las autoridades no han tomado medidas.

9:38 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell us the initial call for the welfare check was made by a member of the LAPD Smart Team (a group that handles mental evaluations). Cops made the decision to go to Britney Spears' house because the person actually had some knowledge of Britney and her situation and wasn't just a fan.

Once officers arrived, they spoke with Britney's security who assured them she was OK, but didn't want to speak ... so the deputies left.

Britney's attorney called the cops later that day, asking about the visit, and deputies assured him they only made the visit because the call was made by someone who knew Britney ... they don't make the welfare checks for fan calls.

Britney Spears' latest Instagram stunt was enough to get the attention of police ... who visited the singer's home to make sure she was safe.

Law enforcement sources tell us they received a call Wednesday expressing concern for Britney based on her recent conduct on social media. We're told deputies were also familiar with the knife video, and out of an abundance of caution, deputies from the Ventura County Sheriff's Department went out to Britney's house.

We're told Britney was home, and deputies were able to speak with her and determine she was OK ... so they left.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... several people called the cops after Britney posted the knife video, and one of them is a person who actually did a welfare check on her in the past and was alarmed.

The situation isn't all that surprising given the amount of concern expressed for Britney's safety this week after she posted a video of herself dancing with two knives. Spears claimed the knives were fake, but they certainly sounded real when she banged them together.

In another video, posted about an hour after Britney showed off her knife skills, she appeared to have a gash on her leg and had a bandage wrapped around her arm.

While she didn't specifically say how she sustained the new injuries, many believe they were caused by the knives ... which may have led to the welfare check calls.

It was earlier this year when cops performed a welfare check at Britney's home after fans became concerned for her safety when her Instagram account disappeared. Britney was fine, later reactivating her account and telling fans she appreciated their concern but was still annoyed to have the cops show up at her house.

As we first told you, Britney's fans have grown concerned for her small dogs as well. The pets looked scared in the background of her knife video, but authorities haven't taken action.

We covered it all on the latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Los grandes fans de "Shrek" tendrán la oportunidad de vivir como un ogro durante un par de noches porque su icónica casa del pantano ha sido recreada y está disponible en Airbnb.

La casa cubierta de musgo se encuentra en las colinas de las Tierras Altas de Escocia y es una réplica perfecta de la de las películas de animación. El anuncio lo "publicó" Burro y algunos afortunados fans podrán pasar 2 noches en la villa pantanosa a finales de octubre.

La gente va a ser capaz de recostarse en "la cama del ogro", relajarse en el ambiente de "luz de las velas de cera de oídos" y por la mañana van a comer waffles, tal como burro hubiera querido.

Incluso tiene el retrete de Shrek directamente al lado del edificio principal, así que si usted siente las ganas, podría recrear la escena icónica del comienzo de la película de 2001.

Las personas que deseen revivir su infancia pueden solicitar la reserva del Pantano de Shrek a partir del 13 de octubre de forma GRATUITA. En honor a esta oportunidad única, Airbnb también está haciendo una donación a HopScotch Children's Charity que ayuda a algunos de los niños desfavorecidos de Escocia.

Any huge fans of "Shrek" will have the opportunity to live like an ogre for a couple of nights ... because his iconic swamp home has been recreated IRL, and it's going live on Airbnb.

The moss-covered home is located in the hills of the Scottish Highlands and is a picture-perfect replica of the one from the animated flicks -- the listing is "hosted" by Donkey and some lucky fans will be able to spend 2 nights at the swampy villa at the end of October.

Visitors will be able to kick up their hooves in the secluded pad, relax in the ambiance of "earwax candlelight," and in the morning, they'll be eating waffles -- just like Donkey would've wanted.

It even has Shrek's outhouse directly next to the main building ... so if you're inclined, you could recreate the iconic scene from the beginning of the 2001 film.

People wanting to relive their childhood can request to book Shrek's Swamp beginning October 13 for FREE. In honor of this rare opportunity, Airbnb is also making a donation to HopScotch Children's Charity, which gives back to some of Scotland's disadvantaged children.

Alex Hall has been getting dragged after what some perceived as her trying to make a Black woman sound angry and unhinged -- and a fellow cast member says it's well-deserved.

We spoke to 'Selling the OC' star Kayla Cardona -- who's very familiar with what has fans up in arms now that Season 2 has officially come to a close ... with unsettled business between Alex and Brandi Marshall -- who got in a huge fight on the show.

The drama between them all stems from Brittany Snow's ex, Tyler Stanaland ... and Brandi accusing Alex of being "messy" when it comes to pursuing him. It was a feud that simmered all season and eventually came to an ugly head during an argument in Cabo -- which was caught on camera and obviously aired on Netflix.

During that shouting match ... many felt Alex was hurling racist microaggressions at Brandi by suggesting she was going to swing on her and trying to paint her as violent. That didn't occur in the moment -- Brandi kept her cool -- but there was a lot of chatter after the fact.

Like we said, AH has been taking it on the chin on Twitter ... and in our convo with Kayla -- who was front and center for all of that during filming -- she says succinctly, "If the shoe fits."

Take a listen for yourself to see what she remembers from that day ... and what apparently happened off-camera too. Based on how KC describes it -- it sounds like things might've been even nastier behind the scenes.

Britney Spears no fue sorprendida por la noticia de que su hermana pequeña, Jamie Lynn Spears, se uniría a "Dancing With the Stars". De hecho, ella era plenamente consciente y lo aprobaba, según ha indagado TMZ.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo nos dicen que a Britney le avisaron de que Jamie Lynn aparecería en el programa de competencia antes de que la noticia saliera a la luz, y nos dicen que Britney se lo tomó muy bien.

No se sabe exactamente quién se lo comunicó a Britney, pero nuestras fuentes dicen que apoyó totalmente a Jamie Lynn y que, al parecer, estaba incluso emocionada por ella.

Ahora, una vez más, no sabemos quién se lo hizo contó a Britney, pero quien lo hizo claramente debe haber tenido en cuenta la famosa ruptura entre ellas, ya que han tenido una historia difícil. A veces Britney ha estado cerca de su hermana, pero también la ha destrozado, y mucho se deriva del libro que Jamie Lynn publicó el año pasado.

El estado de su relación se ha sentido un poco dudoso a veces, sobre todo porque Brit ha seguido ventilando quejas sobre su familia, por lo general en las redes sociales, pero después de escuchar esto pareciera que las hermanas Spears están en buenos términos en este momento.

Jamie Lynn se está preparando seriamente para su participación en 'DWTS', que comienza el 10 de octubre. Se le ha permitido ensayar cerca de su casa en Tennessee, debido al hecho de que tiene dos hijos.

Britney Spears wasn't blindsided by her little sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, joining "Dancing With the Stars" -- in fact, she was fully aware and approved ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us, Britney got a heads up about JL appearing on the competition show before the news came out -- and we're told Britney actually took it well.

No word on who exactly delivered the update to BS, but our sources say she was fully supportive of Jamie Lynn ... and, apparently, even excited for her sibling.

Now, again, we don't know who looped Britney in -- but whoever did clearly did so with their famous rift in mind, as they've had a rocky history. At times, Britney embraced her sister ... but, she's also trashed her. A lot stems from JLS's book last year.

The status of their relationship has felt a little iffy at times -- especially as Brit has continued airing grievances about her family at large on social media -- but after hearing this ... it would appear the Spears sisters are on somewhat good terms right now.

Jamie Lynn is getting seriously accommodated ahead of her time on 'DWTS,' which kicks off Oct. 10. She's been allowed to rehearse near her home in Tennessee, on account of the fact she's a hands-on mom of 2.

A couple of "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" stars are dealing with something many businesses across L.A. are facing -- the homeless crisis ... an encampment popped up right outside their offices.

The tents were spotted outside The Altman Brothers office in Bev Hills as recently as Wednesday -- the place where brothers Josh and Matt Altman work both on and off the Bravo series.

Fans of the show know folks like the Altmans have made careers selling luxury properties all across Los Angeles, so to have a homeless camp on display just steps from their business comes with some irony.

Photos taken Thursday show the encampment is gone -- we're told the city stepped in and had the camp dismantled.

As we reported, Jennifer Garner was spotted offering up more than just a helping hand to a homeless man in L.A. this week  ... offering him the shoes off her feet and getting a nearby photog involved to make sure he got what he needed.

Una pareja en la lista de los más millonarios de Los Ángeles está lidiando con algo más que muchos negocios en la ciudad: se enfrentan también a la crisis de las personas sin hogar, pues un campamento apareció justo afuera de su oficina.

Las carpas fueron vistas afuera de la oficina de los hermanos Altman en Beverly Hills el martes por la noche y también el miércoles. Este es el lugar donde los hermanos Josh y Matt Altman trabajan de vez en cuando en la serie de Bravo.

Los fans de la serie saben que personas como los Altman han hecho carrera vendiendo propiedades de lujo por todo Los Ángeles, por lo que tener una tienda de campaña a pocos metros de su negocio viene con cierta ironía.

Fotos del lugar tomadas este jueves muestran que el campamento ya no estaba ahí, dado que la ciudad intervino y lo desmanteló, según nos han dicho.

Como informamos, Jennifer Garner fue vista este domingo ofreciéndole una mano a un hombre en Los Ángeles. La actriz le ofreció sus zapatos y le pidió a un fotógrafo cercano que se involucrara para asegurarse de que recibiera lo que necesitaba.

George Clooney estaría haciendo las maletas y dejando el Lago Como, ya que se dice que se estaría deshaciendo de su villa frente al mar, luego de más de dos décadas allí.

El actor habría puesto a la venta su enorme casa italiana, según el medio italiano Oggi, que dice haber confirmado con un agente inmobiliario local que supuestamente está involucrado en la venta.

Yasemin Baysal, es citada en la nota diciendo: "Los rumores también habían circulado años atrás, pero esta vez son verdad", y continúa diciendo que una agencia de Milán se encargará de la mayor parte de la transacción, pero se niega a decir cuál exactamente.

Lo que sí ha revelado es que un cliente potencial está muy interesado en el piso de George. En cuanto a su precio, no parece haber una cifra exacta. Se estima que la villa de Clooney fue valorada en hasta 100 millones de dólares el año pasado, pero el agente de bienes raíces le dice a Oggi que una cifra más realista está en algún lugar entre los $75 y $85 millones.

De cualquier manera, es un buen margen de beneficio para George y su esposa, Amal. Clooney compró el lugar en 2002 por 10 millones de dólares a la famosa familia Heinz y lo ha tenido en su poder desde entonces. En cuanto a por qué se van, Oggi informa que a Amal no le gusta la zona, y supuestamente prefiere Provenza, que está en el sur de Francia.

Compraron otra finca allí hace no mucho tiempo y se mudaron también. No está en el agua como su mansión de Como, es más privada y está en el campo, en un viñedo. Durante años, la presencia de Clooney en Como ha atraído a un montón de prensa y ojos curiosos.

A primera vista, parece que los Clooneys quieren algo un poco más discreto y escondido, y sin duda lo han conseguido con su nueva compra.

George Clooney is apparently packing up his bags and leaving Lake Como in the dust -- the dude is said to be unloading his waterfront villa ... this after more than 2 decades there.

The actor is reportedly putting his massive Italian home on the market -- this according to Italian outlet Oggi ... which says it's confirmed with a local real estate agent purported to be involved in the sale.

This woman, Yasemin Baysal, is quoted as saying ... "The rumors were also going around in previous years, but this time it's true." She goes on to say that an agency in Milan will be handling the bulk of the transaction -- but refuses to say which one exactly.

What she does reveal, though, is that one potential client is very interested in GC's pad. As for how much it's going for -- there doesn't seem to be an exact price listed. Clooney's villa was estimated to be valued at as much as $100 million last year ... but the real estate agent tells Oggi that a more realistic ask is somewhere in the ballpark of $75-$85 mil.

Either way, it's a helluva profit margin for George and his wife, Amal. He bought the place way back in 2002 for a reported $10 million from the famed Heinz family ... and he's had it in his possession ever since. As for why they're bailing ... Oggi reports Amal doesn't like the area, and supposedly prefers Provence -- which is in the South of France.

They bought another estate there not too long ago and moved in as well. It's not on the water like their Como mansion is ... this one is super private, in the countryside, and sits on a vineyard. For years, Clooney's presence in Como has drawn a lot of press and eyeballs.

On its face, it would seem the Clooneys want something a little more low-key and tucked away, and they certainly got that with their new buy.

Shawn Mendes se enfrentó a una crisis mientras sacaba sus compras de la maleta, porque desafortunadamente, ¡¡se le cayeron al suelo!!

Había terminado una carrera al supermercado el jueves, cuando experimentó el percance. Se había vuelto a recoger las cosas de su Range Rover, cuando para su mala suerte, los artículos se cayeron uno tras otro, con la bolsa vaciada por completo.

Shawn, que todavía luce barba, hizo todo lo posible para atrapar la comida que caía, pero fue en vano. Todo se fue abajo, así como la puerta de entrada que se cerró ante él, posiblemente como guinda de la torta a este momento cómico perfecto.

Eventualmente, Shawn llegó a la parte delantera para recoger las patatas antes de regresar al interior con la comida que alcanzó a rescatar.

Shawn Mendes faced a produce catastrophe while unloading groceries at home ... because his food took a tumble right out the trunk!!!

He finished up a grocery run Thursday but experienced the mishap in his driveway when he went around back to grab the goods out of his Range Rover -- unlucky for him, the items came pouring out of his trunk, with the bag tipping over entirely.

Shawn, who's still rocking his beard, tried his best to catch the falling grub, but to no avail. It all went down as his driveway's gate closed on him ... with, arguably, perfect comedic timing.

Shawn eventually came around the front to pick up the rogue potatoes before heading back inside with the salvaged food.

Sophie Turner is fighting hard to get her kids out of the United States and over to Europe ... but that's not stopping her from enjoying some QT with her kiddo stateside in the meantime.

Sophie was spotted out with the estranged couple's daughter, 3-year-old Willa, Thursday while running some errands in NYC. Both mom and tot had big smiles on their faces as they walked hand and hand with another female friend tagging along.

No signs of Joe, but that's not at all surprising given the drama that unfolded between the two earlier in the day.

Sophie sued Joe, claiming they had an agreement to raise their two daughters in the UK, where they believed they'd live a safer and healthier life. Sophie claims Joe's hidden the kids' passports, preventing her from taking them outside the U.S.

As for Joe's part, he sent us a lengthy statement explaining a Florida judge ruled neither parent is allowed to relocate their children outside of the United States while divorce proceedings continue.

Sophie Turner está peleando duro por sacar a sus hijas fuera de Estados Unidos y llevárselas a Europa, pero eso no le ha impedido disfrutar de algunos momentos cariñosos con su hija, mientras tanto.

Sophie fue vista con su hija de 3 años, Willa, el jueves mientras hacía algunos mandados en Nueva York. Tanto la madre como la niña tenían grandes sonrisas mientras caminaban juntas de la mano en compañía de otra amiga.

No hay señales de Joe, pero bueno, eso no es ninguna sorpresa dado el drama que se desató entre los dos temprano en el día.

Sophie demandó a Joe, alegando que tenían un acuerdo para criar a sus dos hijas en el Reino Unido, donde creían que vivirían una vida más segura y saludable. Sophie afirma que Joe ha ocultado los pasaportes de las niñas, lo que le impide llevarlas fuera de EE.UU.

Por su parte, Joe nos ha enviado un extenso comunicado en el que explica que un juez de Florida dictaminó que ninguno de los padres puede trasladar a sus hijas fuera de Estados Unidos mientras dure el proceso de divorcio.

Joe Jonas has fired back at Sophie Turner, saying Sophie is the one who has crossed the line, violating an order by a Florida judge by trying to take their kids permanently to England.

Joe's rep just issued a lengthy statement, in response to Sophie's claim Joe has "abducted" their kids by refusing to hand over their passports so they can return to England per their agreement.

Joe's response ... "After multiple conversations with Sophie, Joe initiated divorce proceedings in Florida, as Florida is the appropriate jurisdiction for the case. Sophie was aware that Joe was going to file for divorce. The Florida Court has already entered an order that restricts both parents from relocating the children. Sophie was served with this order on September 6, 2023, more than two weeks ago."

So, Joe is saying Sophie's position would squarely violate the Florida order keeping the kids where they are.

He also makes it clear ... although he believes the kids' home is in the United States, he's open to sharing custody with her, even if she moves permanently to England. "Joe is seeking shared parenting with the kids so that they are raised by both their mother and father, and is of course also okay with the kids being raised both in the U.S. and the UK. The children were born in the U.S. and have spent the vast majority of their lives in the U.S. They are American citizens."

Joe's rep says their team is surprised by Sophie's latest move ... "Joe and Sophie had a cordial meeting this past Sunday in New York, when Sophie came to New York to be with the kids. They have been with her since that meeting. Joe's impression of the meeting was that they had reached an understanding that they would work together towards an amicable co-parenting setup."

And then, the turn ... "Less than 24 hours later, Sophie advised that she wanted to take the children permanently to the UK. Thereafter, she demanded via this filing that Joe hand over the children’s passports so that she could take them out of the country immediately. If he complies, Joe will be in violation of the Florida Court order."

Joe also takes issue with the allegation he is effectively abducting the kids ... "This is an unfortunate legal disagreement about a marriage that is sadly ending. When language like "abduction" is used, it is misleading at best, and a serious abuse of the legal system at worst. The children were not abducted. After being in Joe's care for the past three months at the agreement of both parties, the children are currently with their mother. Sophie is making this claim only to move the divorce proceedings to the UK and to remove the children from the U.S. permanently."

The legal reality ... now that they are no longer a family living together, their deal is not binding on the divorce judge. The North Star for divorce judges is what is in the best interests of the children.

Do you think the Sophie Turner/Joe Jonas divorce war will get uglier? Vote below.
