celebrity kids

Before this lil' Florida gal in her Minnie Mouse tee turned into a Bravoleb, she was just a theater kid dancing around the house, riding horses at just 6 years old and dreaming of becoming a Broadway star!

She may have started out as Scheana Shay's "backup dancer," but she received rave reviews for her singing and dancing gig on Broadway earlier this year ... Perhaps you heard about her show's scandal that rocked the world.

Jalen Green and Draya Michele aren't letting the haters on their relationship get to them ... telling TMZ Sports the critics can think what they want!!

We caught the couple -- with their new baby girl in tow -- as they were out and about in West Hollywood this week. While many people have voiced their opinion on the couple's 17-year age gap ... they are not letting the haters get to them.

"We try to stay off the internet and not really listen to that kind of stuff," 39-year-old Michele said. "We block it out and mind our business."

Tom Cruise engaged in some risky business Saturday ... hitting up Taylor Swift's London show -- after skipping his daughter's high school graduation.

Swifties captured TC walking into Wembley Stadium for Night 2 of the show ... and, check out the clip, 'cause he's got time for just about every fan he passes -- slowing down to say hello and take pics with excited fans.

He's clearly the life of the party ... big grin gleaming as he makes his way toward what we imagine's a swanky, private area to watch Taylor perform.

Kim Kardashian went all out for North West's 11th birthday -- because we're now getting an inside peek into the festivities ... and it honestly looks like a little kid's dream come true.

Check out these new photos and video obtained by TMZ that show exactly what North's big bash out in New Jersey looked like from within ... they show what the kiddos were up to at the American Dream mall in East Rutherford, where North and her besties had a blast.

As you can see, North and her pals took over the place in their matching "I❤️NW" shirts -- a twist on the famous "I❤️NY" slogan, obviously -- and they enjoyed all sorts of rides and activities that were there just for them, including a photo op with SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs.

Kyle Richards is firing back at haters giving her daughter grief for getting a pricey ass car for her 16th birthday -- saying kick rocks ... 'cause she's a good kid and deserves it.

We spoke to the "RHOBH" star in L.A. Thursday ... and we asked if all the flak that she and Mauricio Umansky are getting is warranted -- this after they gifted 16-year-old Portia a brand new Porsche Cayenne, which is valued at a little under $100k ... more or less.

Of course, the internet was all up in arms about the new whip -- saying a 16-year-old doesn't need that type of sweet ride at such a young age ... but KR here says she disagrees.

Marcus Jordan wants the world to know he's NOT dating the woman he was spotted with in Paris this week ... setting the record straight about his dating life and confirming he's proudly "single AF."

TMZ Sports shared the video on Thursday ... showing Michael's son chopping it up with a woman named Gabrielle Wright at the Amiri fashion show.

Gab actually shared video from the event ... and the two didn't even sit right next to each other.

Before this sweetie pie in her fancy schmancy headband turned into a talented pop superstar, she was just a kiddo growing up in Edison, New Jersey with her two younger bros and playing the violin, viola, cello and guitar!

Growing up, she looked up to popular musicians like Justin Bieber and Alanis Morissette, and her dreams came true in 2015 when she was featured on the Biebs' track "The Feeling." She's also known for her collab and hit song with The Chainsmokers.

"Thinking you could live without me/Thinking you could live without me!"

The 2024 Celtics easily handled the Dallas Mavericks. But, how would Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown's squad do against the last Boston team to bring a title to Beantown? We asked NBA champ Eddie House!

Not only was the longtime pro a member of the '08 team (he played for BOS from 2007 to 2010), he's also close to this year's Celtics ... he covers the team for NBC in Boston.

So, put Tatum, Brown, Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford and the rest of the hoopers on a court against Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo and the rest of the '08 team, WHO WINS?!

"We win," Eddie said of his 2007-2008 team ... before explaining his rationale.

"We're not going to allow them to shoot all them threes. We're going to run them off the threes. And I feel like defensively, we were a better team defensively. Now, offensively, because of the threes and the way the game is played now, I'll give them the edge [offensively]," House explained.

"But we're going to knock that down. We're going to make it a drag-out game. And if it's a close game, I'm putting the ball in Paul Pierce's hands and I feel like he's going to deliver every single time. But don't get it twisted. I love this team."

Bottom line ... House isn't throwing shade. He simply believes that out of the two super-talented squads, his would emerge victorious.

There's much more with House ... we asked the NBA champ what the often maligned (during the Finals, at least) Luka Doncic must do if he wants to win a championship. We also discussed whether or not the treatment of Kyrie Irving crossed a line.

Plus, we asked Eddie about his hoops star son, Jaelen House, who's hoping to get drafted this year. What advice is the longtime pro giving his boy?

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker rarely keep their hands to themselves -- so their latest sex confession shouldn't be all that shocking ... but it will be to a lot of people!

During Thursday's episode of "The Kardashians," the Poosh founder admits she and Travis snuck in a banging when she was already 3 centimeters dilated while pregnant with their son, Rocky.

As shown in the episode ... Kourtney first began feeling contractions on Oct. 29, 2023, and they headed to the hospital that evening, as KK was 2 centimeters dilated and experiencing light bleeding.

Jenna Dewan's a new mom again -- welcoming her third baby and second with her fiancé -- this despite the fact that her divorce with Channing Tatum is still underway.

The actress broke the happy news Thursday -- revealing the newest member of her family in a couple sweet Instagram posts ... sharing pics from the hospital of her daughter, whom she named Rhiannon Lee Kathryn Kazee.

Jenna and her soon-to-be-husband, Steve Kazee, are clearly overjoyed about their baby girl -- whose face they aren't hiding either, unlike other celebs ... the kid's face is front and center.

Jennifer Lopez is out in Italy on a boat -- and Ben Affleck is here in Cali on a motorcycle ... hammering home the fact that they're worlds apart these days.

The actor was photographed enjoying some quality time with his son, Samuel, Wednesday ... in L.A. ... riding around on a motorbike. The kid seemed to be having a good time on the cruise about town ... smiling while clinging to his A-list dad's back.

Of course, J Lo was nowhere in sight ... as she was spotted catching some rays in Positano earlier Wednesday ... hanging out with some friends of hers, sans family.

Houston Rockets star Jalen Green and his girlfriend, Draya Michele, hit the town for a lunch date on Wednesday ... and they brought their little bundle of joy along!!

TMZ Sports caught up with the parents at Cecconi's in West Hollywood just minutes ago ... and the two had their newborn baby girl in tow.

Jalen and Draya -- who have been linked to each other since August 2023 -- welcomed the addition to their families on Mother's Day (May 12) ... so, understandably, they requested we not conduct the kid's first interview just yet.

12:50 PM PT -- Remy Ma is now reacting to her son's arrest, telling TMZ ... "We stand by JaySon's innocence and pray that the NYPD will conduct a complete and thorough investigation to reveal the truth. This is undoubtedly a difficult time for my family and me. While we sincerely appreciate the love and support we have received from all of you, we kindly ask for privacy as our legal team works to prove JaySon's innocence."

Remy's son is being represented by attorney Dawn Florio, and Remy says, via the law office, "As his mother, I want to address this situation personally but have been strongly advised by his legal counsel not to say anything -- as most people in similar situations are informed by their attorneys due to it being an active case.

Remy Ma's eldest child and another man are being accused of first-degree murder -- they're currently in police custody.

Forget a stage, Kanye West's 8-year-old kid's future might just be on the hardwood ... check out some highlights Kim Kardashian posted of their son from a recent youth basketball game -- Saint West can ball!!

The SKIMs co-founder posted the clips on her Instagram page Tuesday night ... showing the little guy scoring at will against his peers.

The youngin' -- rocking a blonde fauxhawk and lime green sneakers -- was shown hitting a long 3-pointer, dribbling in and out of defenders ... and finishing at the basket too!!

Before this sweet girl with blunt bangs was stirring up the drama on reality TV, she was just snuggling with her grammy's cat in Staten Island, waitressing tables and heading off to the shore!

After not reporting to the Shore Store, her first season of reality television came to an end, and she was booted from the house and her costars. She returned for season 2 in Miami but lasted only a couple episodes.

Almost a decade went by before she made her big return to her cast mates in 2018 ... "Um Hello?!"

Rick Ross had a wish granted this past Father's Day ... he doled out his FINAL child support payment to his ex-GF Tia Kemp ... who's not too happy he made the news public!!!

Rozay was all smiles as he asked his followers on Sunday if they would rather celebrate Father's Day, or writing your last child support check. He sorta gloated as both events were falling on the same day for him!

The "Aston Martin Music" rapper apparently finished his financial obligation to his son William Roberts III and called the fact it was happening on Daddy's day an act of God -- mo money, less problems for him!!!
