I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN
TMZ.com

The tenant Kevin Costner allegedly confronted over a cozy relationship with his estranged wife is speaking out ... telling us things never got sexual with Christine Baumgartner.

We got Daniel Starr leaving a Starbucks in Ventura Wednesday, and our photog asked him point-blank if he ever hooked up with the actor's estranged wife when he was living at the Costner's beachfront guest house in Carpenteria.

It's not a random question ... the Sun reports Kevin confronted Daniel about his relationship with Christine, claiming the 2 were spending lots of time together on the property while Kevin was off filming.

Daniel was kinda coy when we asked him if there really was a confrontation -- but he was clear about any alleged cheating ... telling us they never hooked up, and were just friendly with each other.

No beef here, according to Daniel ... he says he has no problem with Kevin, even though he moved out a few months before his 12-month lease was set to end.

Daniel says he only had a landlord-tenant relationship with Kevin ... and he's hoping the estranged couple can resolve their divorce amicably for the sake of their children.

While it seems Daniel had a front-row seat to the end of Kevin and Christine's marriage, he doesn't want to speculate about what led to the split ... and it sounds like he just wants to make a clean break.

As we reported ... Kevin claims Christine is refusing to leave the home, and she now wants $248k a month in child support.

The divorce is ugly, but Daniel says he just wants peace for everyone involved.

Elvis Presley Estate Officials Slam 'Priscilla' ... Ex-Wife Praises New Movie

The upcoming movie on Elvis and Priscilla has enraged some members of the Elvis Estate, who say the flick is a travesty.

Multiple officials connected to the estate tell TMZ, the film, "Priscilla," was produced without the Estate's knowledge or consent ... and they're ripping it as another Priscilla money grab.

The movie is written and directed by Sofia Coppola and its based on Priscilla's famous 1985 memoir, "Elvis and Me," telling the story of their early romance. Jacob Elordi plays Elvis opposite Cailee Spaeny as Priscilla.

One Estate official who saw the film describes Coppla's writing and directing as "horrible," adding "It feels like a college movie. The set designs are just horrific, it's not what Graceland looks like."

Priscilla has a very different take ... she tells TMZ, "I am very excited to see the interpretation of my book by the masterful Sofia Coppola. She has such an extraordinary perspective and I have always been such an admirer of her work. I'm certain this movie will take everyone on an emotional journey."

It sounds like the movie does take the Elvis officials on an emotional journey ... just not a good one.

Money has been a bone of contention with the Presley family lately ... as we reported, Priscilla settled her legal beef with her granddaughter Riley, who paid Priscilla a lot of money -- we're told millions of dollars -- to end her beef over who will control Lisa Marie's trust.

The movie is due out in October ... and it will be interesting to see if moviegoers agree with Elvis estate officials or Priscilla.

Barack Obama The Acropolis Is Bootyful!!! Michelle Knows What I Mean

Barack Obama is taking in one of the most hallowed sites in ancient Greece ... but he's clearly more impressed with his wife Michelle's rear end! Smart man.

The former President apparently couldn't resist playfully giving Michelle a helping hand Wednesday during a stop at the famous Acropolis in Athens, palming her booty as they walked up a staircase together at the venue.

As you can see, Barry O has his left hand on Michelle's right cheek as she climbs the stairs in front of him. Their daughters, Malia and Sasha, were nearby ... hopefully they didn't have to witness Dad's PDA play.

Barack, Michelle and the girls are in Greece for an Obama Foundation event ... and it looks like they took a little time out from their business trip to do the tourist thing.

Based on what we're seeing here, it seems Barack and Michelle still have that spark. They first met way back in the summer of 1989 when they worked at the same law firm, so this fire's been burning for decades.

Not sure what the weather is, but it's looking 🔥 in Greece!!

Shaun White, Nina Dobrev Twinning In NYC ... While Sharing Scooter

Shaun White and Nina Dobrev are basically morphing into the same person at this point -- the couple threw on some matching outfits and shared an electric scooter as they zoomed through NYC this week!!

The retired snowboarder and his actress girlfriend decided to squeeze together on one vehicle as they coasted to their destination ... but they didn't seem to mind, 'cause they were both smiling from ear to ear!!

To make things even more adorable, White and Dobrev matched for the occasion ... rocking all black tops and bottoms, white shoes and sunglasses.

36-year-old Shaun took control of the steering during the joyride ... while Nina, 34, appeared to multitask and check out her phone. Gotta give the "Vampire Diaries" star some props 'cause she was wearing a bit of a heel!!

White and Dobrev first met in 2019 ... and have been inseparable ever since.

The two are still going strong after taking their relationship public during the COVID-19 pandemic ... but the gold medalist recently said he's in no rush to get engaged just yet.

Mod Sun Not Interested In Round 2 With Avril ... She's Not Into It, Either

Mod Sun is not looking for a second shot at love with Avril Lavigne now that she's single again, as he feels that ship has sailed for him ... but the feeling is mutual.

Sources close to Mod Sun tell TMZ … he's moved on from Avril and has no interest in getting back with her.

Remember ... Mod Sun and Avril got engaged last year, but she dumped him and went public with Tyga in March -- a move Mod called a full blindside -- but, as we first reported, that whirlwind romance has now run its course.

However, Avril certainly isn't looking for a reconciliation either, as a source close to the star tells us, "Avril has been extremely busy working on new music and is excited about the future.  She has no intention of looking back at things that didn’t work for her previously."

BREAKUP BLUES
TMZ.com

While Mod Sun was initially devastated by Avril calling off their engagement, our sources say he's now in a good place in his life and doesn't want to get back with her.

In fact, Mod Sun is on the European leg of his tour, where he's teasing some new songs inspired by his breakup with Avril.

We're told the rocker used his pain to create new music, and he refuses to let himself go down a road of hurt and lies again.

As for Avril ... TMZ broke the story, she and Tyga split after a few months together -- but our sources are adamant -- the two remain super close friends and both are working in the studio separately on new music.

As they say ... plenty of fish in the sea, and neither wants to pick up their old catch.

THE WORLD IS HIS OYSTER

Al Pacino's newborn son won't be pressured to follow in his famous father's footsteps ... the child's mother says the kid is free to pursue pretty much anything he wants.

We got Al's girlfriend, Noor Alfallah, Tuesday in Los Angeles and our photog asked if she's going to put their kid into acting.

Noor tells us her baby boy "can do anything he wants" ... so it sounds like he's going to have some say in his future, which is a good thing.

Al's much younger baby mama also told us she's excited for motherhood ... as we first reported, she recently gave birth to a boy they named Roman Pacino.

Of course, Al is 83 ... which means he will be 101 by the time Roman turns 18.

Hopefully, dad's around to see whatever Roman grows up to become ... actor or otherwise.

Jonathan Majors is heading for trial in his assault case, and his new girlfriend Meagan Good is firmly in his corner as he faces the judge for the first time.

The actor made his first court appearance Tuesday, strolling into a Manhattan courtroom while holding hands with Meagan.

They both wore sunglasses as they ducked into court, and after his hearing was over they left together.

Jonathan heard it straight from the judge ... his trial date is now set for Aug. 3, and if he doesn't show up in person, a warrant could be issued for his arrest.

As we reported, NYPD arrested Jonathan back in March for misdemeanor assault, aggravated harassment, attempted assault, and harassment after allegedly slapping his ex-girlfriend in the back of a taxi.

Canelo Alvarez Yacht Day W/ Wife ... Skimpy Swimsuits In Porto-Fun-O 🔥🔥🔥

Canelo Alvarez's Italian vacation continues ... the boxing superstar and his wife ditched their clothes for a couple of tiny swimsuits, hopping aboard a luxury yacht for a day of fun in the sun near Portofino!

32-year-old Alvarez and his 26-year-old wife, Fernanda Gómez, are vacationing in Northern Italy ... and after some luxury retail therapy earlier in the week, the couple decided to take things to the water.

Canelo, wearing red trunks, and Fernanda, in a teeny bikini, were spotted jumping off the back of the yacht, before going for a dip.

Alvarez, who is arguably the best pound-for-pound boxer in the world, also worked on his diving.

When the couple, who married in May 2021, were done aboard the big boat, they threw on clothes (a Dolce & Gabbana shirt in Canelo's case) and grabbed a bite to eat outside a local cafe.

Canelo, who doesn't yet have an opponent, says he'll return to the ring in September ... but a grueling training camp has got to be a million miles from Alvarez's mind!

Jay-Z and Beyoncé were coolin' out in Cannes at a beachside restaurant ... a nice little lunch date while Bey tours Europe on her "Renaissance" Tour.

TMZ obtained video of Jay and Bey trying to stay under the radar while strolling along a pebble-strewn path as they headed toward a ship on the French Riviera Monday afternoon.

As you can see, Jay seems totally chill in his T-shirt, shorts and sunglasses. Bey, also in summer gear, appears to be in tourist mode with a camera slung over her shoulder. The two are surrounded by security telling fans to keep their distance.

We're told Jay and Bey had earlier arrived by boat to have lunch at La Guérite -- which is known for its seafood, salad and pasta dishes and boasts amazing views of the Mediterranean Sea from its island terrace.

Our sources didn't know what Bey and Jay consumed during their 1.5-hour feast -- but it all sounds pretty scrumptious. Where the lovebirds were headed on the boat after leaving the restaurant is anyone's guess ... but we're sure it won't disappoint.

Canelo Alvarez Romantic Italian Vacay W/ Wife ... Shopping + PDA!! 💏

Canelo Alvarez clearly wanted some R&R before returning to the ring in September, so the boxing superstar grabbed his beautiful wife and darted off for a romantic vacation in Portofino, where the smoke show couple were seen packing on the PDA! 🔥

32-year-old Canelo and 26-year-old wife Fernanda Gomez were photographed in Italy Sunday afternoon, Father's Day, enjoying the European holiday ... where they shopped in several luxury stores, including Dolce & Gabbana.

Alvarez and Gomez, who married in May 2021 (just a few days after Canelo broke Billy Joe Saunders' face in their fight), were seen kissing and holding hands in between the retail therapy.

Portofino, located in Genoa on the Italian Riviera, is a hot spot for some of the richest and most successful people from Europe and America.

The couple also posted a photo on social media of their view, seemingly before a meal ... and it's breathtaking!

Alvarez last fought on May 6, in his hometown, where he easily handled John Ryder, winning by unanimous decision.

Canelo now plans to fight again in September, but his opponent has not yet been announced. Alvarez has made it clear he wants to rematch Dmitry Bivol, the only man to beat him outside of Floyd Mayweather.

September is about 10 weeks away meaning training camp is close ... and a romantic Italian vacay isn't a bad last hurrah before the grueling work begins! Turns out there are perks to being the most famous boxer in the world!

"I can’t believe he’s been growing in my belly for 5 months already."

Sean and Veronika's adorable pup even got in on the photo shoot... wearing a bandana that read, "I thought I was the baby!"

The longtime couple first met in Washington, D.C. when McVay was working with the now-Commanders ... and they went public with their relationship in 2016.

They got hitched at a star-studded wedding in 2022.

Jay-Z & Beyoncé Bidet, Doors & More from Former Home Sellin' On eBay!!!!

If you've ever wanted to use the same bidet Jay-Z and Beyoncé perhaps did, look no further ... because unique items from one of their swanky former homes have made their way to eBay.

Eric from "Eric’s Architectural Salvage LA" tells TMZ … he has some sweet items up on the site, all from a pad they rented -- in addition to the bidet, which has an asking price of $2,400, Eric's selling some sconces, exterior lights, and a huge, arched metal door frame.

There are also some beautiful French doors, which could actually be spotted inside the home before the whole place was redone.

As we reported, the Carters signed a one-year lease for a Holmby Hills mansion back in 2015, and the owner sold the place after they moved out.

Eric says the new owners of the spot wanted to do a complete renovation, resulting in the scrapped items making their way to Eric in 2017.

He says his company purchases all types of items that demolition companies and developers are looking to ditch.

So if you're crazy in love with these pieces -- ya better go grab 'em!

Jennifer Lopez Shirtless Pic of Ben on Father's Day ... Ripped and Rugged!!!

Jennifer Lopez is kinda flexing on everyone by making sure we all know she's got a serious hunk o' man in Ben Affleck ... by posting a thirst trap to honor his daddy status.

BA was front and center on J Lo's Instagram Sunday as she dropped a sweet Father's Day tribute gallery. Her first slide is a bathroom mirror pic of Ben shirtless ... which shows that he's in great shape, and maybe even pantless.

There's another couple of photos with more clothing ... shots of the 2 of them snuggling together.

Her caption reads, "Daddy Appreciation Post Happy Father’s Day Papa." She adds, "And Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing Papas out there!! We love you and appreciate you more than you will ever know."

Ben and Jen don't share any children together, but he's got kids of his own -- and ditto for her, obviously. They've done well at blending their families, as the brood always seems to be hanging out together in just about every setting. Makes sense, they are married now.

Conor McGregor's Fiancée Jets To NYC ... Standing By UFC Star Amid Rape Allegations

Dee Devlin is making it clear she's standing by Conor McGregor despite recent rape allegations ... jetting out to NYC this past weekend to spend a loving Father's Day with the UFC star.

McGregor shared photos of the couple's holiday celebration on his Instagram page Sunday evening ... and in the pics, you can see Devlin looked as in love with the 34-year-old as ever -- even though he was just accused of sexually assaulting a woman a week prior.

Wearing her engagement ring, Devlin was seen in the pics embracing McGregor ... and at one point, rubbing one of his feet. The two were also seen smiling ear-to-ear as they were surrounded by their three children.

"The Best Fathers Day yet!" McGregor wrote in a caption on the pics. "Happy Fathers Day, gents. God bless."

Devlin, who's yet to publicly comment on the accusations, has been dating McGregor for over a decade ... getting engaged to the fighting star back in 2020. McGregor just revealed last week they're expecting to have their fourth child later this year.

TMZ Sports broke the story ... McGregor was accused of kissing a woman without her consent, forcing her to perform oral sex, and then attempting to sodomize her during a violent attack inside of a restroom following Game 4 of the NBA Finals back on June 9 at the Kaseya Center in Miami.

Kourtney Kardashian 1st Comes ❤️, Then 👰 Then Comes a Baby (Bump)!!!

Kourtney Kardashian broke her big baby news this weekend -- and it seems this was a well-kept secret ... 'cause her baby bump is actually pretty big, which she just revealed online.

The eldest Kardashian sister posted new photos of her belly Sunday -- this after letting the world (and her husband) know that she was newly expecting in awesome fashion. As it turns out, it appears she's quite far along ... meaning she's been sitting on this for a minute.

We're not gonna play doctor and pretend we know where she's at in the pregnancy -- but at first glance, it would seem she's well into the first trimester ... and then some, perhaps.

As for the pics themselves ... they're absolutely adorable. You see Kourt and Trav hugging up on each other -- smooching, hugging, and even a little drumming (kidding, of course) with TB playfully using his sticks on her stomach. The dude even goes in to kiss the baby-to-be.

It's interesting ... we know for a fact Travis was completely stunned to learn that Kourtney was pregnant -- based on his reaction to the announcement, which went down live during a Blink-182 concert. As we all know ... KK blasted the news out via old-school signage.

However, considering how preggo she looks here ... you gotta wonder, how the heck did the dude not pick up on it any sooner??? He's living/sleeping with her -- and yet, she appears to have been able to keep this one under wraps until it was time to let everyone know.

Obviously, her sisters were probably in the know about her bun in the oven -- and considering how much she's showing ... maybe even Shanna Moakler was privy to it too ... as she claims she has been for weeks. If that's the case -- well done keeping it on the DL.

As you know ... this would be Kourtney's fourth child -- she has three others with her ex, Scott Disick -- and it marks Travis' third. They've hinted at wanting kids of their own since getting hitched ... following a whirlwind romance that ultimately became a fairy tale.

Now, it looks like their wish will be granted with a new life. Congrats again to the soon-to-be parents!
