Britney Spears is getting over Sam Asghari by getting on a plane ... and, at least on the surface, she doesn't seem to be sweating the divorce as she has fun down in Cabo San Lucas.

The singer was showing off some moves at a bar called Baja Diablo ... where she was feeling the music Sunday, along with her bodyguard and a female friend in red. The bodyguard was definitely multitasking -- taking a phone call, dancing with Brit and, of course, watching her back.

Britney's dancing was a bit toned down compared to the moves she normally shares online ... but she was hardly shy as other bar patrons watched her.

Of course, some people were definitely trying to grab a moment, or photo, but Britney's security waved them off as they yelled out her name.

BARING IT ALL

As we reported, Britney certainly hasn't been sulking since Sam filed for divorce last month -- despite saying she was "a little shocked" ... she's shared some old footage of her havin' fun with some shirtless men, and also posted a topless video of herself.

TMZ broke the story, Sam called things off after he believed Britney was cheating on him with a staffer at their home ... and they've cut off all contact with each other.

If Britney's in need of any post-breakup therapy, looks like she's finding it in Mexico.

Britney Spears está superando el divorcio con Sam Asghari yéndose de viaje a Cabo San Lucas y Parece estar pasándolo de maravilla.

La cantante mostró algunos movimientos en un bar llamado Baja Diablo, donde mostró alguno de sus pasos durante la noche del domingo junto a su guardaespaldas y una amiga de rojo. El guardaespaldas fue definitivamente multitarea, contestando llamadas telefónicas, bailando con Brit y, por supuesto, cuidando su espalda.

El baile de Britney fue un poco apagado en comparación a los movimientos que normalmente comparte en línea, pero no se mostró tímida mientras otros clientes del bar la miraban.

Por supuesto, algunas personas estaban tratando de capturar un momento o una foto, pero la seguridad de Britney les hizo señas para que se alejaran mientras gritaban su nombre.

mostrandolo todo

Como informamos, Britney ciertamente no ha estado inactiva desde que Sam le pidió el divorcio el mes pasado, a pesar de decir que estaba "un poco sorprendida", ha compartido algunas viejas imágenes de ella divirtiéndose con algunos hombres sin camiseta y también publicó un video en toples de sí misma.

TMZ publicó la historia; Sam canceló las cosas después de que él creía que Britney lo estaba engañando con un empleado al interior de su casa y han cortado todo contacto.

Si Britney necesita terapia post ruptura, parece que la está encontrando en México.

Divorcio de Kevin Costner Christine en racha perdedora Juez propina nueva derrota

La ex esposa de Kevin Costner, Christine Baumgartner, está en una racha perdedora, ya que acaba de ser condenada a pagar los honorarios del abogado de Kevin por algunas de sus travesuras.

Como ya informamos, el mes pasado la abogada de Kevin, la reina en divorcios, Laura Wasser, preguntó a Christine si entendía el acuerdo prematrimonial que firmó. Es una pregunta importante porque hay indicios de que Christine impugnará el acuerdo prematrimonial, y entenderlo antes de firmarlo es crucial.

Christine y sus abogados esencialmente dijeron que no entendían lo que significaba "entender".

Hubo MUCHAS idas y vueltas entre los abogados, y la factura de Kevin por intentar obtener una respuesta a la pregunta ascendió a 14.237,50 dólares.

El caso volvió este miércoles a los tribunales, cuando el juez determinó que Christine debe pagar una factura de más de 14.000 dólares a Kevin.

La resolución se produce días después de que Kevin ganara una gran victoria sobre la manutención de sus hijos. Christine pedía 248.000 dólares al mes, pero Kevin argumentó que la cantidad realista y adecuada era de unos 63.000 dólares al mes. El juez aprobó los 63.000 dólares.

Aún no está claro si Christine impugnará el acuerdo prenupcial. Si lo hace y pierde, tendrá que pagar los honorarios del abogado de Kevin incurridos en la defensa del acuerdo prenupcial.

Kevin Costner Divorce Christine Ordered to Pay His Attorney's Fees ... So Now You Understand!!!

Kevin Costner's estranged wife Christine Baumgartner is on a losing streak, because she's just been ordered to pay Kevin's attorney's fees over some shenanigans.

As we reported, last month Kevin's lawyer, disso queen Laura Wasser, asked Christine if she understood the Premarital Agreement she signed. It's a significant question because there are signs Christine will challenge the prenup, and understanding it before signing it is relevant.

Christine and her lawyers essentially said they didn't understand what "understand" meant.

There was A LOT of back-and-forth between lawyers, and Kevin's bill for trying to squeeze an answer to the question amounted to $14,237.50.

The case is back in court today, and the judge just ordered Christine to pay Kevin the $14k+ bill.

This comes days after Kevin won a huge victory over child support. Christine was asking for $248,000 a month, but Kevin argued the realistic and appropriate amount to pay was $63k a month. The judge signed off on the $63k.

It's still unclear if Christine will challenge the prenup. If she does and she loses, she'll have to pay Kevin's attorney's fees incurred in defending the prenup.

Joe Jonas, Sophie Turner Ring Camera Video/Audio was Lynchpin to Divorce

Joe Jonas saw/heard something with Sophie Turner that was the last straw in his decision to file for divorce, and it involves a ring camera.

Multiple sources who have direct contact with Joe tell TMZ ... Joe had access to a ring cam that he said captured Sophie saying and/or doing something that made him realize the marriage was over.

TMZ broke the story ... Joe and Sophie's marriage had been on the rocks for at least 6 months, and it was all over a significant difference in lifestyles. As one source put it, "She likes to party, he likes to stay at home. They have very different lifestyles."

As we reported, over the last 3 months, Joe has had the kids almost all the time. Sophie has been in London, but Joe and his bros were touring the U.S. and he had his 2 small kids in tow.

We know Joe had been in touch with at least 2 divorce lawyers last week. Interestingly, both lawyers are in L.A., yet he decided to file divorce docs Tuesday in Florida.

Joe and Sophie said in a joint statement Wednesday, "After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage. There are many speculative narratives as to why ..."

We reached out to Sophie's team ... they had no comment.

In a joint statement posted Wednesday, the two say, "After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage."

They continue, "There are many speculative narratives as to why but, truly this is a united decision and we sincerely hope that everyone can respect our wishes for privacy for us and our children."

As we reported, Joe filed for divorce from Sophie in Miami Tuesday, asking for joint custody of their daughters, ages 1 and 3. The couple has a prenup and, according to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Joe wants a judge to establish a parenting plan between him and Sophie that allows for "frequent and continuing contact with both parties."

The docs also reveal the children have most recently been staying with Joe in Miami and "other locations throughout the United States" as he and his brothers tour the country.

TMZ broke the story over the weekend, the two had reached an end in their relationship and Joe was looking for a divorce attorney ... once that happened, he got the ball rolling quickly.

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

Joe Jonas y Sophie Turner Hablan sobre su divorcio Nuestro matrimonio se acabó

Joe Jonas y Sophie Turner finalmente han decidido romper el silencio y referirse al término de su matrimonio, el que describen como "cuatro años maravillosos".

En un comunicado conjunto publicado este miércoles, los dos dicen: "Después de cuatro maravillosos años de matrimonio hemos decidido mutuamente poner fin a nuestro matrimonio de manera amistosa".

Y continúan: "Hay muchas especulaciones sobre el porqué, pero realmente es una decisión conjunta y esperamos sinceramente que todo el mundo pueda respetar nuestros deseos de privacidad hacia nosotros y nuestros hijos".

Como hemos informado, Joe solicitó el divorcio de Sophie en Miami el martes, pidiendo la custodia compartida de sus hijas de 1 y 3 años. La pareja tiene un acuerdo prenupcial y, según los documentos judiciales obtenidos por TMZ, Joe quiere que un juez establezca el plan de crianza de ambos, que permita un contacto "frecuente y continuo de ambas partes".

Los documentos también revelan que los niños se han estado quedando con Joe en Miami  y en "otros lugares de Estados Unidos", mientras él y sus hermanos recorren el país.

TMZ dio a conocer la historia el fin de semana. Los dos habían terminado la relación y Joe estaba buscando un abogado de divorcios, y una vez que esto sucedió, la bola se puso a rodar rápidamente.

Joe Jonas Files for Divorce From Sophie Turner

Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are headed to divorce court, because TMZ has learned Joe has filed legal docs to end his marriage.

Joe is asking for joint custody of their 2 daughters, 3-year-old Willa and their 1-year-old.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Joe and Sophie have a prenup -- something Joe also addresses in his divorce docs, obtained by TMZ. There's more in here as it pertains to their kids -- including the fact that Joe wants a judge to establish a parenting plan between him and Sophie that allows for "frequent and continuing contact with both parties."

Another interesting tidbit in his petition ... Joe confirms what we've known since this weekend -- namely, that the two children have been residing with him of late. Here in the docs, though, he makes sure to note where ... Miami, as well as "other locations throughout the United States." In other words, he's been taking them with him on the road as he's toured.

The issue of child support is also addressed in Joe's docs ... he says both parents can pay to support their children and that they should both be required to do so. With that said, JJ wants a Florida court to establish what's fair ... and to take health insurance for the kids into consideration in determining that.

TMZ broke the story ... the couple has been having problems for around 6 months. Joe has been shopping for divorce lawyers for at least a week. He filed in Florida. He's repped by Tom Sasser, who handled Tiger Woods' divorce.

As for why Joe filed for divorce ... a source with direct knowledge tells us this ... "She likes to party, he likes to stay at home. They have very different lifestyles."

As we reported, Joe has been taking care of the children pretty much all of the time over the last 3 months. When it comes time to hash out a custody arrangement, he could ask for significantly more than 50% physical custody, and our sources say that's likely.

Joe and Sophie started dating in 2016, got engaged the following year and tied the knot in a Vegas ceremony in 2019.

It's the first marriage for both 34-year-old Joe and 27-year-old Sophie.

We covered Joe and Sophie's split on the latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Joe Jonas y Sophie Turner se dirigen a la corte de divorcio. TMZ se enteró que Joe ha presentado documentos legales para poner fin a su matrimonio.

Joe está pidiendo la custodia compartida de sus dos hijas, la de tres años de edad, Willa, y la otra de tan solo un año.

Fuentes directas nos informan que Joe y Sophie tienen un acuerdo prenupcial.

TMZ publicó la historia, la pareja ha tenido problemas durante unos seis meses. Joe ha buscado abogados de divorcio durante al menos una semana. Él presentó la petición en Florida y su representante legal es Tom Sasser, el abogado que manejó el divorcio de Tiger Woods.

Como informamos, Joe ha cuidado a los niños casi todo el tiempo durante los últimos tres meses, incluso mientras la banda estaba de gira por los Estados Unidos.

Joe y Sophie empezaron a salir el 2016, se comprometieron al año siguiente y se casaron en una ceremonia en Las Vegas en 2019.

Es el primer matrimonio tanto para Joe, de 34, como para Sophie, de 27.

Joe Jonas Wearing Wedding Ring Despite Looming Divorce

Joe Jonas has been shopping for divorce lawyers, as TMZ first reported, but he's not giving up the symbol of marriage ... he was wearing his wedding ring Sunday night at his concert.

Joe and his bros performed at the Moody Center in Austin, and the gold band on his ring finger was impossible to miss.

It's unclear what message he's sending, but it comes after fans noticed he had not been wearing the ring recently and people began to wonder if the marriage was in trouble.

TMZ broke the story ... Joe and wife Sophie Turner have been having problems for the last 6 months and Joe's team has contacted at least 2 divorce lawyers over the past few days for the purpose of ending his marriage.

Sophie was rocking out at Yankee Stadium at the Jonas Brothers’ kickoff concert last month but has been MIA ever since.

As we reported, Joe has been caring for the couple's 2 young children most of the time over the last 3 months, even as the band toured the U.S.

TMZ also noted that regardless of whether he rocks the ring or doesn't ... our sources are firm on this much -- their marriage is circling the drain and on its way to family court in due time.

FYI ... Sophie has been open about her mental health struggles, telling Dr. Phil on his podcast she was sometimes bedridden with depression.

However, it looks like he goes back and forth between putting it on and taking it off. Just yesterday, he posted a shot of him and his brothers for Labor Day ... and there, he's wearing it. Of course, some fans took that to mean everything's A-OK -- which we know it isn't.

On the surface, it seems there's been no outward signs of trouble. Joe and Sophie have attended events together. However, in recent weeks ... Joe has been seen not wearing his ring.

And they recently sold their Miami mansion. They bought that place just a year ago ... and sold it fairly quickly, for a decent profit.

Joe and Sophie first linked up in 2016 ... and got engaged a year later. In 2019, they were married -- Vegas-style -- and have been living the family life ever since ... quickly welcoming their first kid in 2020 ... and another in 2022. A lot has happened for them in 4 years.

Professionally, Joe and Sophie have been busy -- mostly JJ, though. He's gone on tour with his brothers recently and is scheduled to perform through the winter. Sophie's done some TV/movie stuff in recent years -- but isn't nearly as active as she was during her 'GoT' days.

BTW, they're both still young ... Joe's just 34, and Sophie's only 27.

We reached out to reps for Joe and Sophie. So far, no word back.

Joe Jonas y Sophie Turner Se divorcian

Actualización

10:29 AM PT -- Aquí hay una foto de Joe andando sin anillo hace apenas unas semanas en Nueva York, mientras iba por un café.

Sin embargo, parece que el rostro de Jonas Brothers va y viene en eso de ponerse y sacarse el anillo. Ayer mismo publicó una foto de él y sus hermanos durante el Día del Trabajo, en donde aparecía con él puesto. Por supuesto, algunas fans tomaron esta foto como una señal de que estaba todo bien, lo que sabemos que no es así.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Independientemente de si lleva o no el anillo, nuestras fuentes son firmes en decir que su matrimonio está dando vueltas por el desagüe y se dirige a los tribunales de familia.

Joe Jonas y Sophie Turner estarían por divorciarse, según ha indagado TMZ.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le han dicho a TMZ, que Joe le pidió a su gente que se contacte con al menos dos abogados de divorcio en Los Ángeles, y que estaría a punto de presentar los documentos de divorcio para poner fin a su matrimonio con Sophie.

Nuestras fuentes también dicen que la pareja ha tenido "serios problemas" durante al menos seis meses.

Agregan que en los últimos tres meses, Joe ha estado cuidando de sus dos hijas pequeñas "casi todo el tiempo", incluso mientras andaba de gira con su banda. Nos dicen que actualmente Joe está con las dos niñas, mientras su grupo toca por todo EE.UU.

A primera vista, pareciera que no hay signos de problemas en la pareja. Joe y Sophie han asistido a algunos eventos juntos. Sin embargo, en las últimas semanas el cantante y músico ha sido visto sin su anillo de matrimonio.

Y recientemente vendieron su mansión de Miami. La pareja había comprado el lugar hace apenas un año y lo pusieron en venta bastante rápido por una ganancia decente.

Profesionalmente, Joe y Sophie han estado ocupados, sobre todo JJ. Junto a su banda ha estado de gira recientemente y tiene previsto actuar durante el invierno. Sophie, por su parte, ha hecho algunas cosas en televisión y cine en los últimos años. Pero ya no está tan activa como en sus días junto a Game of Thrones.

Por cierto, ambos son jóvenes... Joe tiene 34 años y Sophie solo 27.

Boyz II Men's Shawn Stockman Defends Britney Comments Conservatorships Aren't All Bad!!!

UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION
TMZ.com

Shawn Stockman is doubling down on his comments about Britney Spears -- this after catching flak from fans -- 'cause he says not all conservatorships are created equal.

We got the Boyz II Men singer at LAX again Monday, and it sounds like there was some backlash from #FreeBritney folks over what he said last week regarding her situation ... namely, he felt getting her back into a conservatorship might be a good idea.

DIVORCED DANCING

Check out what he has to say about it now ... it's pretty insightful.

Essentially, Shawn explains the apparatus of a conservatorship in and of itself isn't necessarily a bad thing -- despite what some have apparently tried preaching to him.

GET BRITNEY BACK
TMZ.com

The reason SS knows that --he has personal experience in this department -- and considering his understanding of how conservatorships work ... the haters might wanna reconsider how they're discussing this issue.

Now, Shawn does say that *if* people in Britney's life were abusing the conservatorship -- which she alleges was the case as it pertains to her father, Jamie -- that's obviously no bueno ... and he condemns that. But on the issue of conservatorships in general -- which have been demonized -- Shawn says they can actually be quite helpful for certain folks.

BARING IT ALL

Shawn also makes the point that even diehard Britney fans truly don't know her or what she needs -- and he suspects, based on behavior she's displaying, that she could use some people in her corner to better guide her through this precarious time.

Bottom line ... he wants the best for her, and anything to further that -- he's all for it.

Kevin Costner Wife's Child Support Cut in Half ... Actor will Pay $63k a Month

Kevin Costner just found out how big of a check he has to cut to his estranged wife Christine Baumgartner each month for child support ... and he's going to be happy.

The judge in Kevin and Christine's divorce ruled Friday that Kevin's going to be forking over $63,209 -- that's exactly what he said was appropriate. $63k is less than half of what she was getting in temporary support -- $129k. And remember, she originally asked for $248k a month.

ANOTHER DAY IN COURT
TMZ.com

It's an end to a bitter back and forth between Kevin and Christine over how much he should be ponying up.

During Friday's hearing, Kevin took the stand and answered some questions from his lawyer, Disso Queen Laura Wasser, saying ... "Somehow in this unusual world we didn't make it and I'm sorry."

Kevin said his biggest concern going into the relationship with Christine was having kids and getting divorced ... because he had 3 kids with his first wife and got divorced. Kevin and Christine ended up having 3 kids and getting divorced too.

Remember ... Christine originally asked for $248,000 a month in child support, but Kevin claimed she was padding the bill simply because he could afford it ... with Costner claiming the actual amount she needs for their kids is around $51k a month.

In the end, the judge went closer to Kevin's figure.

The actor's testimony also featured Kevin saying he wanted to pass his properties down to his kids and he said, "I don't hide money from my wife."

Kevin Costner Takes Stand In Divorce Battle ... Talks 'Yellowstone' Fallout

Kevin Costner says he didn't return to his hit show "Yellowstone" more so because of scheduling issues and money rather than any rumored beef with creator Taylor Sheridan.

The actor testified during Friday's divorce hearing in Santa Barbara and got into his ugly "Yellowstone" exit, saying he left a ton of money on the table.

Kevin was being grilled on the stand by lawyers for his estranged wife Christine Baumgartner ... they kept asking about his finances and how much money he made for "Yellowstone."

Kevin's testimony included juicy nuggets on his falling out with the show ... saying negotiations for a potential sixth season broke down over scheduling issues, creative differences, and money.

The way Kevin explains things, there were issues with the creative process and he "tried to break the log jam" but Paramount "walked away," after he asked for $12M to film the season.

Kevin says he had scheduling conflicts with his new movie "Horizon" because "Yellowstone" wanted to shoot a two-part season in the same year which would require him to shoot the first half, go do his movie, then return for the second half.

ANOTHER DAY IN COURT
TMZ.com

He claims he moved things around with his film to accommodate the show but "Yellowstone" wasn't ready to shoot the second half on time.

Kevin's testimony is super enlightening ... at the time, there were rumors his exit was mired in an alleged beef with Sheridan, the show's creator, and they were rumored to hate each other.

And, get this ... Kevin said he "will probably go to court" over his "Yellowstone" ending.

The court hearing is breaking for recess as Kevin and Christine fight out over how much child support he must pay her.

Kim Zolciak It Wasn't Kroy's Idea to Sell the House ... It Was Mine!!!

090123-kim-zolciak-kal2 9/1/23
LISTEN TO ME
BACKGRID

Kim Zolciak says it wasn't Kroy Biermann's idea to sell their house that is teetering on the brink of foreclosure ... it was hers.

Kim hit up Il Pastaio Friday night, and she said flat out ... the decision to sell their home was mutual.

TMZ broke the story, Kroy has filed for divorce a second time, although Kim has been acting like it's only a matter of time before he pulls the plug on it again. She's been wearing her wedding ring -- though not last night -- and is pooh-poohing the notion they're really getting divorced.

Kroy's lawyers have a different take ... they're saying Kroy is as serious as a heart attack ... he wants out.

At least from the filing, it looks pretty nasty.  He wants sole custody of their minor children and exclusive use of their home, for as long as they have it.

Kroy locked Kim out last month and left her pillow on the doorstep.  She called the cops.

If this isn't a good storyline for 'Housewives,' we don't know what is.
