celebrity kids

Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott have welcomed their second child to the world, and .... it's a boy!!!

Kylie announced the birth of her son Sunday, saying the kid was born on Wednesday -- and indicating the baby's sex by posting a blue heart. The photo she posted to break the news features what appears to be Stormi's hand reaching out and touching her little brother.

KJ also tagged Travis in the post. No word on a name yet -- but we're sure that'll be forthcoming.

As we reported ... the Kylie pregnancy news broke in August after a few weeks of speculation and internet sleuths finding signs almost daily that she was expecting.

Not long after the cat was outta the bag ... Kylie officially announced her pregnancy herself with an emotional video documenting the early stages and featuring Travis, Stormi and Kris Jenner.

Kendall later revealed that her sister broke the big news to her the old-fashioned way ... by calling her up and showing her the sonogram.

What was interesting about Kylie's second pregnancy, is that she was a lot less private about it than her first. She got out of the house a lot more, and wasn't afraid to flaunt her baby bump in public either.

Kylie previously stated she felt pressure to have a second child and give Stormi a younger sibling, so now that she's done it ... the official Kardashian crew kids count is 11. And, Caitlyn Jenner's grandkids tally is up to 20!!!

Before this pipsqueak throwing up the peace sign was landing some of the most difficult tricks in the rink, she was just another baby with bangs training for the Olympics in Arcadia, California.

This cute kid is best known for representing the United States with her amazing figure skating skills ... she hasn't only made a remarkable impact for America in Winter Olympic Games, but also on the future of the sport itself.

She has won numerous bronze and silver medals over the course of her career but only has taken home the gold once.

Kanye West is making shocking claims about Kim Kardashian -- now suggesting she's under the impression he wants to take her life ... this as it appears she's blocked his number.

Ye was at it again Sunday ... posting a fresh round of all-caps IG captions, taking aim at his estranged wife. Only this time -- he's making allegations that are straight-up disturbing ... actually saying Kim thinks he's got a bounty on her head.

His latest post features a screengrab of a text he seems to have sent to someone which reads, "Send me Kim's number." The caption that follows is this -- "YESTERDAY KIM ACCUSED ME OF PUTTING A HIT OUT ON HER." He then continues to describe how he feels, of late, that he's been accused of being on drugs, stealing from the Kardashians and also that he had to "BEG" to attend Chicago's birthday party a few weeks ago.

He adds, "NOW IM BEING ACCUSED OF PUTTING A HIT ON HER THESE IDEAS CAN ACTUALLY GET SOMEONE LOCKED UP THEY PLAY LIKE THAT WITH BLACK MENS LIVES WEATHER ITS GETTING THEM FREE OR GETTING THEM LOCKED UP IM NOT PLAYING ABOUT MY BLACK CHILDREN ANYMORE."

For the record ... there's no indication that Kim has accused Kanye of putting a hit out on her -- not that we can see, anyway.

And yet, there's more ... shortly before throwing out that wild accusation, Kanye posted another all-caps message -- only this one is purported to included exchanges he says he had with one of Kim's cousins.

His caption is pretty long here, but essentially ... he's saying that even members of Kim's own family -- outside of her immediate unit, that is -- are actually reaching out to him in private to agree about his stance on parenting. He also claims that in the same breath, they're kinda gaslighting him and asking for favors too ... like new Yeezys for their kids.

On top of putting Kim's family's business out there, Kanye also seems to be harping on a point he's been making a lot lately -- namely, the fact he feels his late mother ruined his relationship with his father, Ray. The two of them have rekindled in recent years ... which has been well-documented by Ye and co.

Throughout all these posts over the past several days, he's been saying he isn't going to let the same thing happen to him and his own children.

Kanye West has expressed, very publicly, his discontent over his and Kim Kardashian's daughter, North, being on TikTok -- but we're told ... the 8-year-old can't even log on without mom's permission.

Sources close to the former couple tell TMZ ... North doesn't have her own TikTok account, nor does she have the app on her own phone any longer. Instead, we're told North can only access TikTok through a joint account on Kim's phone -- and only uses it in her mother's presence.

Not just that ... but our sources say the comments for North and Kim's account are fully disabled. We've even spoken to sources at TikTok who tell us ... North and Kim's account passes the company's terms and conditions for minors.

Now here's why Ye might be in a tiff over this ... according to another source in the know. We know there was, in fact, an incident recently where North did go live on TikTok from her own phone -- but our sources say Kim disciplined her over that and made the changes then.

We're told Kim, Kanye and his cousins even had a discussion over the incident, and they agreed to the new parameters that North is now confined to ... aka, no social media on her phone, and only being able to hop on through her mom's account with her mom there too.

With that said ... our sources say it's confusing to Kim that Kanye is making a big fuss about North's recent video, because she thought everyone was on the same page from before.

As for why an 8-year-old would even have her own phone ... sources close to Kim tell us it's so she can have a direct line to her dad, and vice-versa. Of course, we're told that phone is fully monitored with all the parental blocks you can imagine -- and to reiterate ... there are no social media accounts on it at all.

Kanye West now has someone in his corner over his very public spat with Kim Kardashian over parenting -- and that'd be one Candace Owens ... whose support he appreciates.

Ye took to IG Saturday to thank the conservative political pundit for voicing support over whether Kanye and Kim's daughter, North, should be on TikTok or not -- and in CO's POV, the kid definitely shouldn't ... because she says it's harmful for young girls.

Candace says Kim's wrong on this issue, going on to say ... "It's actually Kanye that is trying to protect his daughter in this regard and Kim is spinning this as 'obsession' and 'control'" ... adding there are other ways for kids to creatively express themselves besides TikTok.

KW was definitely feeling the love, and made sure Candace knew about it ... posting a lengthy caption that expressed just how much it meant to him that she was standing by his side ... while others, apparently, keep their vote of confidence on the DL with Ye.

He writes, "THANK YOU CANDACE FOR BEING THE ONLY NOTEWORTHY PERSON TO SPEAK ON THIS ISSUE THERE'S A LOT OF CELEBRITIES SCARED TO SAY SOMETHING IN PUBLIC BUT THEY'LL TEXT ME IN PRIVATE AND SAY THEIR ON MY SIDE."

Kanye adds, "I WILL NO LONGER PUT MY HAND THROUGH A BLENDER TO HUG MY CHILDREN MY MOTHER TOOK ME TO CHICAGO WHEN I WAS 3 AND TOLD MY DAD IF HE CAME TO CHICAGO HE WOULD NEVER SEE ME AGAIN SO I BOUGHT THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR I DREAM OF A WORLD WHERE DAD’S CAN STILL BE HEROES."

This latest dustup comes after Kim filmed a TikTok with North ... which pissed off Kanye, as he's made it clear he doesn't want his kids on there. Kim accused him of attacking her, and essentially brushed off the TikTok use as NBD ... especially compared to his behavior.

Hank Williams Jr.'s son wants some of what Britney Spears has -- freedom from a conservatorship ... one he alleges his father quietly placed him in 18 months ago.

Sam Williams -- himself a country singer who's worked with the likes of Dolly Parton -- posted an eerily silent video to YouTube earlier this week ... and in it, he holds up handwritten signs explaining his alleged plight.

Sam claims his father and half-sister, Holly Williams, put him under a conservatorship back in August 2020 ... 55 days after his sister, Katie Williams, was killed in a car accident.

In the video, the 24-year-old singer nervously looks around the room before holding up one more sign that reads, "I want out."

The caption on the clip says, "I've been quiet a long time now. I want out of this, and I don't mind people knowing. They took my grief process, my spirit, my money, my car, my home, and everything possible in order to 'protect me.' Well, I need protection from them."

Interestingly, Sam and his father were photographed together in November 2021 at Nashville's Country Music Hall of Fame -- where they were celebrating Hank's induction -- although, Sam doesn't look all that thrilled to be there.

We've reached out to Hank Jr. and Holly's attorneys and reps multiple times, but haven't gotten any response. However, TMZ has confirmed through court records ... Hank did file a petition for an emergency conservatorship in August 2020, and it was for Sam. We've been unable to confirm the current status of the conservatorship.

Sam released his debut album, "Glasshouse Children," right around the same time the conservatorship docs were filed.

The record features collabs with Dolly and Keith Urban. At the time, he told People it was a difficult record to complete while mourning his sister -- "I definitely broke and went through a really, really, really hard time. I'm still climbing out of it. But, it's the 'still climbing' part that is the most important. That'll just always be a big part of my story."

Sam referenced that pain in his YouTube caption, saying, "I have worked my broken heart to quits since my dear Katie left for Home. I do not deserve this. This is a scary step but I don't see what else to do here. I am ashamed of my family and embarrassed. I am beyond done. I have my spirit back. Get. Me. Out. Please."

Portland-based actor Andy Lindberg is best known for playing the conniving kid Davey "Lardass" Hogan -- who enters the Great Tri-County Pie Eat with the intention of creating a barf-o-rama amongst the viewers and his peers in Gordie's campfire story -- in the iconic 1986 coming of age film "Stand By Me."

Lindberg shared the big screen with some of the biggest stars in the '80s including Wil Wheaton as the pistol-wielding storyteller, Gordie Lachance, Jerry O'Connell as the safety first friend, Vern Tessio, Corey Feldman as the four-eyed companion with a looney dad, Teddy Duchamp ... and of course River Phoenix as the brave younger brother, Chris Chambers.

Before this rosy-cheeked little lady gained a following by her self-produced shows on YouTube, she was just another blue-eyed girl cuddling up for the camera in Gold Coast, Australia.

This blushing baby was inspired to start her career -- as a singer, model, and actress -- by her older brother who has made waves in music. You may recognize him for his lovely voice ... or for dating a rockin' singer who's been known to make headlines.

Recently, this celebrity personality was in the news for having a near-death experience and being hospitalized for a broken neck. Thankfully she's okay now!

Michael Jackson has moonwalked on down to Broadway -- and on opening night ... his kids saw him take the stage anew, but not without some hand-wringing.

All three of MJ's children attended the world premiere of "MJ: The Musical" Tuesday night in the Big Apple, with Paris and her older brother, Prince, stepping out in front of cameras before curtains were raised ... posing proudly side by side.

Michael's daughter wore a chic red patterned dress, and Prince kept it classic with a black suit and tie. Their younger brother, Prince Michael (aka Blanket), was later seen exiting the Neil Simon Theatre with his siblings, also suited and booted.

While adoring MJ fans were thrilled to see the late performer's brood show up for him in force ... critics could not be appeased, because they're pissed about the contents of the play itself -- specifically, what it covers ... or rather, what it doesn't cover.

Word is, the show follows Michael's life in the early '90s when he embarked on his now-famous "Dangerous" world tour, during which he traversed the globe for an astonishing number of concerts and banked millions upon millions of dollars for charitable efforts.

Sounds great ... but the problem is, there's no mention of a huge scandal he faced at the time -- namely, accusations of child abuse and a subsequent lawsuit from Jordan Chandler and his family, whom Michael eventually settled with for a rumored $23 million.

Because the Broadway production skips over that topic entirely, some are calling it a sanitized version of MJ's legacy ... particularly this chapter of it.

Before this stylish sweetheart was a marvelous addition to any genre of film, she was just another posin' pipsqueak all dressed up for the camera in Sacramento, California.

This little lady got her start at a young age when she starred alongside Beverley Mitchell in a speedy Disney Channel original movie. Later, she continued to have featured roles in some of the most beloved comedy films ... such as "13 Going On 30" and "Trainwreck."

Now, her career has been launched into stardom by winning numerous prestigious awards and entering into the Marvel Universe.

Pete Davidson's a chip off the ol' block ... the question -- did Kanye West knock his block off?

The answer is no, but we'll explain why it's a fair question in a minute.

Yeah, Pete's tooth looks chipped, but it's not.  Our Pete sources tell TMZ ... he's shooting a movie that requires a chipped tooth, so it's fake.  We don't know which movie, but we know he does not have a chipped tooth.

Oh, the baby ... it's Malcolm, the newborn of Olivia Munn and John Mulaney, whom they now call "Uncle Pete." Pete's reaction ... "Babies are all head." You hear Olivia and John cracking up in the background.

As for the Kanye thing ... remember, he recently said in a song he would kick Pete's ass.

Before this cheesing child was one of the top athletes of his time, he was just another cute kid smiling wide for the camera in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

This adorable all-star is best known for not only scoring touchdowns, but scoring multi-million dollar deals in the NFL. Even though this MVP baller has played for multiple teams over the course of his successful career, he recently signed with one of the final four contenders heading into playoffs this upcoming weekend.

With his skills, fans may be rooting for him on their home turf this Super Bowl!

Child actors and twin sisters Noelle and Cali Sheldon were only toddlers when they were slung into stardom after they were cast to play the adorable daughter Emma Geller-Green on the final few seasons of the hit television sitcom "Friends."

The cute little girls shared the screen with some iconic actors including David Schwimmer as the bumbling lover and newly neurotic father, Ross Geller ... and Jennifer Aniston as Ross' star-crossed partner and new mom, Rachel Green.

The sisters were more recently cast as the terrifying twins in the 2019 freaky film "Us."

Before this handsome mini-man was making audiences laugh with his kooky television characters, he was just another smirking sweetheart ready for his school portrait in Waterloo, Iowa.

This cute kid got his start when he and his two best friends formed a hilarious comedy group ... they rose to fame with their online antics and eventually earned a well-deserved spot on a lineup of Comedy Central shows.

Now, this comedian has shown off his singing voice in pitchy pictures and even scored a role alongside John Goodman in an off-beat, dark comedy streaming on HBO.

Before this adorable baby was one of the lead roles in an epic franchise film series, he was just another blonde boy growing up in Melbourne, Australia.

This little cutie may be a big-time actor, but he's not the only one in his famous family who is a sight for sore eyes on the screen ... he is one of three successful brothers in the industry. Even though he is known for a popular trilogy adapted for film, he has also shown off his romantic-comedy skills in the past.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

Regina King's only son has tragically died.

Ian Alexander Jr. took his own life Wednesday, according to law enforcement, the day he turned 26.

Ian is the son of Ian Alexander Sr., who married Regina in 1997. They were together 10 years before divorcing.

Regina said, "Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian. He is such a bright light who cared so deeply about the happiness of others. Our family asks for respectful consideration during this private time. Thank you."

Regina and her son would sometimes walk the red carpet together for events and it was apparent how proud she was of him.

As for tributes ... they are cascading in ... "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Garcelle Beauvais said, "My heart breaks for you @ReginaKing Ian was sweet & kind."

Marc Lamont Hill echoed that ... "Sending all of my love and condolences to Regina King. I pray that she's surrounded by love and healing energy."

Ian once said of Regina, "She's just a super mom. She doesn't really let bad workdays or anything come back and ruin the time that we have. It's really awesome to have a mother who I can enjoy spending time with."

When Regina turned 50 in 2021, Ian posted this on Instagram ... "Happy birthday to my co, so extremely proud of you and inspired by your love, artistry and gangsta. To be able to watch you take this lifetime by its neck and make it yours is something i will forever be grateful for. But to have you as my mother is the greatest gift I could ask for. To be all that you are while always having the time to be there, love and support me unconditionally is truly remarkable. The whole marvel universe ain't got s*** on you, your the real superhero! Love you mom! This day and everyday YO DAY!!"

And ... just a couple of months before he died, Ian posted a throwback pic of him, his mom and a friend, with the caption ... "My joys 🥰."

Ian was 26.
