Family

Garrison Brown was negatively affected by social media before his death -- and it impacted his own sense of self-worth ... this according to one of his siblings.

The "Sister Wives" star's actual sister, Madison Brown Brush, hopped online to post an emotional video reflecting on her brother's untimely passing -- and she spoke a lot about his mental health struggles, while also acknowledging pointing to mental health convos at large.

Maddie explains her brother was battling issues internally -- and even says he felt he wasn't doing enough with his life ... using social media as a comparison point.

She also says something pretty poignant ... namely, social media isn't real.

Maddie goes on to explain how she and the rest of the family have been dealing with Garrison's suicide -- describing how difficult it's been finding a new sense of normal.

She urged her followers to remember that social media is just a snapshot into someone's life -- it doesn't show everything. Remember, Garrison's loved ones say he seemed perfectly happy online ... having just adopted a new cat days before he died by suicide.

Maddie goes on to say that she's going to continue putting a spotlight on mental health ... and sends a message to people who might be battling demons -- telling them that if they're not feeling fulfilled with how they're spending their time, they gotta change that ASAP.

We broke the story ... Garrison was found deceased in his Flagstaff, Arizona home earlier in March. Flagstaff PD told us that no foul play is suspected, as Garrison appeared to have suffered from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

He was only 25.

Dr. Jenn Mann has advice for Elizabeth Hurley -- keep your clothes on around your grown son ... 'cause it goes beyond the pale of what she considers a healthy parent-child dynamic.

The "Couples Therapy" doc tells TMZ ... even though the actress' 21-year-old son Damian is a consenting adult, the fact that he's directing his mom's sex scenes is a major boundary breach between parent and child -- at least from her POV, anyway.

With two best-selling parenting books under her belt -- "SuperBaby: 12 Ways to Give Your Child a Head Start In the First 3 Years" and "The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy, Confident Kids" -- the renowned psychotherapist is speaking from experience when she advises against simulating sex in front of your kid. In her eyes, it's just not the best way to operate.

Jenn does acknowledge that this is a Hollywood thing -- calling out the biz for its lack of boundaries ... noting that Damian directing his mom's sex scene for her upcoming erotic thriller "Strictly Confidential" really blurs the lines ... presumably between voyeurism and art.

She also tells us she finds it downright bizarre that Hurley felt liberated by her son witnessing her being intimate on-camera ... adding the only reason she'd understand EH's empowerment is if she was merely boosting his directing career. Aside from that ... she doesn't get it.

Jenn's not shy in pointing out that Liz and Damian's relationship seems to push boundaries that might be crossing into taboo territory, violating cultural norms ... and she gets why others, like herself, would have a negative reaction to the whole situation.

JM says she thinks Liz and Damian might be best suited for therapy -- and lucky for them, she's a wiz in that field.

As we reported ... EH told Access Hollywood her son Damian made her comfortable during an intimate scene where she wears some seriously skimpy clothing while getting steamy with another woman.

While most others would recoil at the idea of seeing their parents in such a scene ... Liz says she enjoyed it so much, she'd be totally down for a little more mother-son collaboration in the future.

Mark Coleman has been released from the hospital after nearly dying in a huge house fire last week ... the UFC legend provided an update to his many fans just days after saving his mom and dad.

"God is great 👊❤️🙏," the 59-year-old retired fighter said on Monday via IG video caption, writing, "I am healing up very well."

"My lungs are sore. My eyes are burnt but I’m very much alive and well. I feel so blessed it’s in my higher power's hands. He wants me to move forward today and I am."

Coleman -- who was hospitalized with smoke inhalation after saving his parents from a house fire in Toledo, Ohio, early Tuesday morning -- thanked all his fans for their prayers, especially for his late dog, Hammer, who sadly perished in the blaze.

Mark also said he hopes the incident encourages people to make the most of life ... before it's too late.

"I'm one of the luckiest men in the world," the UFC Hall of Famer said.

"I can't thank you enough. I'm just grateful. I'll continue to motivate people to move forward and be a better version of themselves. You never know when you're gonna need it, so let's go. Let's start today. Tomorrow's not promised. Get moving!"

BTW, his loyal fans stepped up in a big way, including financially, making over 2,600 donations to a GoFundMe to help with medical expenses ... raising over $121k!

Usher ganó a lo grande la noche del sábado en los NAACP Image Awards, alzándose con las estatuillas de Artista del Año y al Premio del Presidente, pero fue su discurso de pura gratitud hacia su madre lo que dejó a todo el mundo boquiabierto.

El cantante de R&B subió al podio en la 55ª ceremonia anual en el Shrine Auditorium de Los Ángeles después de que el Presidente y CEO de la NAACP, Derrick Johnson, le diera a Usher el codiciado Premio del Presidente.

Durante su discurso de aceptación, Usher dio apasionadas palabras sobre su madre, Jonnetta Patton, atribuyéndole todo el mérito de su exitosa carrera.

Usher le dijo a la audiencia llena de estrellas que su madre le mostró el propósito de ser capaz de hablar con el mundo a través de su música.

También destacó que su madre superó la industria del entretenimiento dominada por hombres y repasó sus habilidades en las reuniones para llegar a los mejores acuerdos para su hijo, poniéndolo en la cima de la industria.

En varios momentos, la emotiva multitud aplaudió a Usher, mostrando su aprobación hacia él. Pero Usher no se detuvo allí, también mencionó que las mujeres en la industria a menudo no reciben el reconocimiento que merecen.

El cantante también se llevó a casa el premio Entertainer of the Year, superando a Colman Domingo, Fantasia Barrino, Halle Bailey y Keke Palmer. Además, Oprah Winfrey, le entregó el premio.

Las victorias de Usher fueron bien merecidas, como ustedes saben, Usher ha arrasado últimamente con su residencia en Las Vegas, la que cerró a finales del año pasado, por no hablar de una memorable actuación en el Super Bowl 2024.

Usher won big at the NAACP Image Awards Saturday night, lassoing statues for Entertainer of the Year and the President's Award -- but it was his speech of sheer gratitude for his mom that took everyone by storm.

The R&B singer stepped up to the podium at the 55th annual ceremony at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles after NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson bestowed Usher the coveted President's Award.

During his acceptance speech, Usher delivered his passionate words about his mom, Jonnetta Patton, giving her full credit for his successful career.

Usher told the star-studded audience that his mom taught him the purpose of being able to speak to the world through his music.

He also highlighted that his mom overcame the male-dominated entertainment industry and brushed up on her boardroom skills to cut the best deals for her son, putting him on top of the industry.

At several points, the emotional crowd clapped for Usher, showing their approval of him. But Usher didn't stop there ... he also mentioned women in the industry often do not get the recognition they deserve.

The singer also took home the Entertainer of the Year award, beating out Colman Domingo, Fantasia Barrino, Halle Bailey and Keke Palmer -- that award was given to him by none other than Oprah Winfrey, too.

The Usher wins were well deserved ... as you know, Usher has been killing it lately with his Las Vegas residency which he closed out at the end of last year -- not to mention a memorable performance at the 2024 Super Bowl.

Bueno, esto sin duda demuestra que los tiempos cambian, ¡Lindsay Lohan está empujando un cochecito de bebé!

LiLo estuvo en Beverly Hills el sábado junto con Luai -de 8 meses de edad-               y su marido, Bader Shammas, y algunos otros miembros de la familia.

Estuvieron en una institución de Los Ángeles -La Scala- para un pequeño almuerzo. El restaurante era muy famoso en su día, y hablando de viejos tiempos, es increíble cómo Lindsay ha enderezado su vida desde los primeros días de TMZ.

Es madre y esposa y parece serena y feliz. También está actuando de nuevo, con cierto éxito.

Más tarde ese mismo día, Lindsay y Bader fueron a Giorgio Baldi -un lugar de celebrudades- para comer algo.

Well, this certainly proves times change ... Lindsay Lohan is pushing a baby stroller!!!

LiLo was out and about in Bev Hills Saturday, along with 8-month-old Luai and hubby Bader Shammas, and a few other family members.

They hit up an L.A. institution -- La Scala -- for a little lunch. The restaurant was super famous back in the day, and speaking of back in the day ... it's amazing how Lindsay has reset her life from the early days of TMZ.

She's a mom and a wife and seems serene and happy. She's also acting again, with some success.

Later that day, Lindsay and Bader hit up another celeb hotspot ... Giorgio Baldi for some grub.

¡Diddy y Kanye West no han estado en buenos términos por un tiempo, pero ahora parece que podrían estar arreglando su relación porque Diddy estuvo entre los asistentes al set de Kanye en Rolling Loud!

El rapero y productor hizo una rara aparición pública en el show de Kanye el jueves en Los Ángeles, junto a sus hijas gemelas Jessie y D'Lila Combs.

Echa un vistazo al video, Diddy trajo a toda su tripulación al set y parece que llegó cuando Ye y Ty Dolla $ign estaban pinchando "Keys To My Life".

Y Diddy hizo del show un asunto de familia porque también fue visto en la parte lateral del escenario con su hijo Justin mientras observaba la polémica actuación.

El espectáculo sin duda dejó a algunos molestos, porque en lugar de actuar en vivo, Kanye y Ty se pararon en el escenario y solo tocaron grabaciones de sus canciones, dejando a muchos fans decepcionados.

No está claro cómo se sintió Diddy sobre el espectáculo, o si él y Ye se sentaron a conversar, porque tienen asuntos que aclarar desde su viral bronca de 2022.

Recuerden, Puffy conversó con "The Breakfast Club", donde llamó las camisetas de White Lives Matter de Kanye como camisetas de "sordo" en 2022.

Bueno, a Kanye no le gustó ni un poco y compartió algunos mensajes privados entre él y Diddy, que incluían uno donde acusaba a Diddy de ser enviado por personas de la comunidad judía para amenazarlo.

Diddy quería reunirse en persona, pero Kanye lo llamó agente federal y lanzó un gran "f*** you" por si acaso.

Todo fue bastante desquiciado y parecía que no habían hecho las paces, al menos no públicamente. Pero ahora que Puffy está en el show, cabe preguntarse si se habrán dicho algo detrás de escena.

¿Así que los dos están oficialmente enterrando su disputa o los hijos de Diddy solo quieren ver a Ye? ¡Vota abajo!

Diddy and Kanye West haven't been on good terms for a while ... but, now it seems they might be mending their relationship -- 'cause Diddy pulled up to Kanye's Rolling Loud set!

The rapper/producer made a rare public appearance Thursday at the show in Los Angeles and walked into KW's performance alongside his twin daughters, Jessie and D'Lila Combs.

Check out the vid ... Diddy brought his whole crew to the set -- he always rolls deep -- and appeared to pull up as Ye's and Ty Dolla $ign's "Keys To My Life" played over the speakers.

And Diddy made the evening a whole family affair ... 'cause he was also spotted in the back/side stage area with his son Justin while watching the controversial performance.

The show certainly had people up in arms ... 'cause instead of performing live, Kanye and Ty stood onstage and just played recordings of their songs -- leaving lots of fans disappointed.

Unclear how Diddy felt about the show ... or if he and Ye sat down for a conversation -- 'cause they kinda gotta clear the air about their viral 2022 beef.

Remember, Puffy sat down for an interview on "The Breakfast Club" where he called Kanye's hella controversial White Lives Matter t-shirts "tone deaf" back in 2022.

Well, Kanye didn't like that one bit, and he ultimately shared some private messages between him and Diddy -- including one where he accused Diddy of being sent by Jewish people to threaten him.

Diddy wanted to meet in person ... but Kanye called him a federal agent and threw in a big "f*** you" for good measure.

It was all pretty unhinged ... and it seemed the two hadn't made up -- at least not publicly. But, now with Puffy at the show, ya gotta wonder if some words have been said behind the scenes.

So are the two officially burying the hatchet ... or did Diddy's kids just really wanna see Ye? Vote below!

"Mama June: Family Crisis" is staying true to its name ... 'cause Mama June and Honey Boo Boo are fightin' over money -- specifically cash for college.

On Friday night's episode of the hit reality TV show, Mama June told her daughter Alana -- better known as Honey Boo Boo -- that she didn't have the money to help pay for her college tuition ... info that totally shocked the rest of the family.

While MJ said during the ep that she couldn't give her daughter any money because she's still trying to rebuild her finances, Alana pointed out she spent money on her husband Justin Stroud's thick gold chains.

Alana's not the only one feeling like Mama June's cheaping out when it comes to her BTW ... her sister Lauryn "Pumpkin" Efird called out her mom for not helping Alana during a confessional.

Remember ... Lauryn and her husband Josh took on caring for Alana while Mama June was in the throes of her drug addiction -- so, it's not surprising LE's taking her sis' side on this one.

Honey Boo Boo basically summed up her feelings in a later confessional ... straight-up saying Mama could help everyone else, but when it came to her, she said her mom's never got anything for her.

BTW ... Alana started college back in the fall. She's studying nursing at Regis University in Colorado, and she says she got a $21,000 scholarship -- enough to make a dent in those college expenses for sure.

Celine Dion is bouncing back from her debilitating health issues, posting a photo on Instagram that shows her looking strong with her three sons by her side.

On Friday night, the iconic singer uploaded the happy pic to her IG account, which captured Celine with a beaming smile, while standing with her arms around two of her sons as the third sat before them.

The siblings, Rene-Charles and twins Nelson and Eddy -- were also grinning ear to ear, seemingly indicating their mom is feeling better.

In the caption, Celine provided an update on the prognosis for her disorder, Stiff-Person Syndrome, after first recognizing that it was SPS Awareness Day.

Celine wrote that she was diagnosed with SPS in 2022 and has been trying to overcome the autoimmune disorder ever since, highlighting that it's one of the hardest experiences of her life.

But she gave hope to her millions of fans, saying that she is determined to one day return to the stage to perform and to "live as normal of a life as possible."

She also expressed deep gratitude for the love and support she has received from family members and other supporters. She ended with words of love and encouragement for anyone impacted by SPS, vowing to beat the disease together.

You may recall ... Celine was forced to pull the plug on her tour after she made a video announcement that she was suffering from SMS at the end of 2022. Her condition has prevented her from being able to perform.

However, she was met with a standing ovation last month at the Grammys when presenting Album of the Year -- an award that went to Taylor Swift.

Celine Dion se está recuperando de sus debilitantes problemas de salud, publicando una foto en Instagram en la que se ve fuerte con sus tres hijos.

El viernes por la noche, la cantante subió la foto a su cuenta de IG, donde aparece con una radiante sonrisa, mientras está de pie con los brazos abiertos alrededor de dos de sus hijos, mientras el tercero estaba sentado delante de ellos.

Los hermanos Rene-Charles y los gemelos Nelson y Eddy, también aparecen sonrientes, lo que parece indicar que su madre se encuentra mejor.

En el pie de foto, Celine proporcionó una actualización sobre el pronóstico de su trastorno, después de reconocer que era el Día de la Concienciación del Síndrome de Persona Rígida.

Celine escribió que fue diagnosticada con SPS en 2022 y ha estado tratando de superar este trastorno autoinmune desde entonces, destacando que ha sido una de las experiencias más duras de su vida.

Pero dio esperanza a sus millones de fans, diciendo que está decidida a volver algún día a los escenarios para actuar y "vivir una vida lo más normal posible".

También expresó su profunda gratitud por el amor y el apoyo que ha recibido de sus familiares y otros seguidores. Terminó con palabras de amor y aliento para cualquier persona afectada por el SPS, prometiendo vencer la enfermedad juntos.

Se pueden recordar que Celine se vio obligada a desistir de su gira después de que anunciara que padecía este trastorno a través de un video a finales de 2022. Su condición le ha impedido ser capaz de actuar nuevamente.

Sin embargo, fue recibida con una gran ovación el mes pasado en los Grammys al presentar el Álbum del Año, un premio que fue para Taylor Swift.

Friday was a very tough day for Cara Delevingne after her $7 million L.A. mansion burned to the ground – and the devastation was written all over her face.

Check out these photos obtained by TMZ ... Cara looked shattered in the backseat seat of a car, leaving the Kit Kat Club at the Playhouse Theatre in London following her performance in "Cabaret" Friday night.

In one snap, the model placed a hand against her head while seemingly staring into space as her mother, Pandora, seated beside her, tried to comfort her.

Other pictures showed a side view of Cara inside the car, covering her face with her arm. Cara's dad, Charles, also came out to show much-needed support for his daughter after the devastating blaze.

As we first reported ... Cara's L.A. area estate went up in flames early Friday morning, turning into a smoldering black carcass after firefighters put out the flames.

She had first insinuated her 2 cats had perished in the fire, but she later clarified on Instagram her felines were just fine. Still no word yet on how the kittens were rescued.

The Los Angeles Fire Department's arson unit is investigating, but, we're told, that's just SOP.

El viernes fue un día muy duro para Cara Delevingne después de que su mansión de 7 millones de dólares en Los Ángeles se quemara hasta los cimientos, y la devastación se notaba en su cara.

Echa un vistazo a estas fotos obtenidas por TMZ, Cara parecía destrozada en el asiento trasero de un carro, mientras dejaba el Kit Kat Club en el Teatro Playhouse de Londres después de su actuación en "Cabaret" el viernes por la noche.

En una foto, la modelo aparece con una mano en la cabeza y mirando al vacío mientras su madre, Pandora, que está sentada a su lado, trata de consolarla.

Otras imágenes muestran una vista lateral de Cara dentro del carro, donde aparece cubriéndose la cara con el brazo. El padre de Cara, Charles, también estaba en el vehículo para mostrarle su apoyo a su hija después del devastador incendio.

Como informamos por primera vez, la propiedad de Cara en Los Ángeles se incendió en la madrugada del viernes, convirtiéndose en un montón de humo y cenizas luego de que los bomberos lograran controlar las llamas.

En un primer momento, había insinuado que sus 2 gatos habían perdido la vida en el incendio, pero más tarde aclaró en Instagram que sus felinos estaban bien. Todavía no se sabe cómo fueron rescatados los gatitos.

La unidad de incendios provocados del Departamento de Bomberos de Los Ángeles está investigando, pero nos dicen que es solo el procedimiento habitual.

Cara Delevingne's tragic house fire may have been electrical in origin ... at least that's what her mom and dad are saying -- who are out in the UK to support their daughter's play.

The model's parents, Charles and Pandora, got interviewed by a photog Friday in London -- where it seems the whole family's in town as Cara performs there at the Playhouse Theatre. They were asked if they knew how the fire started, and they said they did.

Check it out ... Charles says a rogue powerline may be to blame after a "very windy" night in Southern California. He also says that it was an electrical fire that got out of control.

FWIW ... we're hearing from our law enforcement sources that an official cause still hasn't been attributed just yet -- and officials are still in the early stages of the investigation.

BTW, despite reports suggesting this being investigated as arson -- our sources tell us that's not entirely accurate. While an arson unit is in the mix as they look into this -- we're told arson is not being seriously suspected. It's SOP to have arson looked into for a fire like this.

We broke the story ... Cara's L.A.-area home caught ablaze in the early hours Friday -- prompting a massive turnout from the fire department, part of which was caught on video.

The situation almost became even more heartbreaking after Cara shared a photo of her two cats on Instagram, seemingly suggesting they may have perished in the flames.

Cara later clarified that her felines were fine, sharing the happy update with her Instagram followers. It's unclear if the cats were rescued by the firefighters, per se, but somebody obviously got them out safe and sound. Cara thanked firefighters regardless.

It seems that Charles and Pandora didn't get the news of her cats being okay at the time of this interview -- 'cause they say here that they were still missing as far as they knew ... but luckily, they've been located.

Pandora also shared some insight into Cara's heartbreak over the sad scene, explaining that her model daughter "had her whole life" in the torched residence -- and had apparently lost a lot of items in the fire. She also says Cara is devastated ... and understandably so.

The show must go on, though ... Cara still showed up to do her Friday night performance at the Playhouse Theatre -- and her parents were right there to support her.

Ethan Crumbley's parents have been convicted of involuntary manslaughter in connection with the crime committed by their son ... an outcome at least one criminal defense attorney sees as both a troubling sign and a great lesson for parents.

We spoke with attorney Mike Cavalluzzi -- a Los Angeles-based lawyer -- about the verdicts on "TMZ Live" Friday, and, while he said he's concerned about the expanding criminal liability ... he's also seeing it as a wake-up call for parents.

As Mike explains it, school shootings in the United States have become far too commonplace, and he says he views verdicts like this as a way to stop people from buying weapons these shooters end up using to harm others.

Mike also called the potential changes parents will make from Thursday's verdict opportunities rather than consequences -- as in, giving people the opportunity to make good parenting decisions.

Basically, MC says the verdicts will likely keep parents on high alert ... and, hopefully, that will help parents see the warning signs before it's too late.

As you know ... Ethan Crumbley -- who killed four students during a 2021 shooting at Oxford High School in Michigan -- received life without the possibility of parole back in December, but his parents were also charged in connection with the crime.

Ethan's parents -- James and Jennifer Cumbley -- were both found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for being criminally negligent in the lead-up to their son's shooting ... with prosecutors even claiming James bought Ethan the gun he used days prior.

Jennifer was found guilty in early February while James got his guilty verdict Thursday ... but both are scheduled to be sentenced April 9.
