Ja Rule is getting a head start on Mother's Day with a heartfelt gesture for some special women and their kids.

The "Always On Time" rapper and Sei Less Restaurant's co-founder Ivi Shano joined forces Tuesday in NYC to host an uplifting luncheon dedicated to moms who had their lives altered by the criminal justice system -- 40 mothers and their children, to be exact!!!

TMZ Hip Hop got a video of Ja greeting and socializing with the moms ... the luncheon was a partnership between The Ladies of Hope Ministries and REFORM Alliance.

G Herbo is issuing a stern PSA after an encounter with a fan rubbed him the wrong way -- so, he's putting everyone on notice ... daddy duties top being a celeb any day of the week!!!

The Chicago-born rap star was in an airport Tuesday when he decided to drop a vid ... one that very accurately conveyed his agitation.

Herbo explained he constantly gets bombarded with photo requests in airports while he's carrying his kids, most of the time he's moving with his hands full and it's really grinding his gears!

Denise Austin's swimsuit model daughter is officially off the market ... the fitness icon's offspring got married over the weekend -- and the wedding was a lavish one.

Katie Austin -- who followed in Denise's footsteps as a workout instructor before becoming a Sports Illustrated bathing suit beauty -- tied the knot on Saturday in La Quinta, Calif. with her longtime partner, Lane Armstrong.

The two got the nuptials done outdoors at the Austins' desert property ... amid a myriad of flowers, chandeliers and string lights.

Seeing David Archuleta's mother watch the music video for his new song -- one he could not have written without her -- might be more emotional than the song itself.

TMZ got this exclusive clip ... showing the former "American Idol" runner-up sitting with his mom, Lupe Bartholomew, for her first viewing of the vid for, "Hell Together" -- as he tells her she's the inspiration behind the track.

Lupe visibly reacts to the images -- it features a lot of home video footage she helped pick out, scenes of David singing in a church with angelic-looking women dancing.

Kourtney Kardashian's ready to talk about her emotional struggles after her son was born ... revealing she felt weird at work -- even though she had Rocky with her.

The reality television star posted to Instagram Saturday, sharing behind-the-scenes photos and videos from a day shooting promotional photos of videos for the upcoming season of "The Kardashians."

For the most part, the pics and clips show Kourtney standing in front of a green screen ... listening to directions from the crew while one shot focuses on the tight bodysuit she wore at some point.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard has already given back her wedding ring to estranged husband Ryan Anderson ... because the piece of jewelry meant quite a bit to him, TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Gypsy Rose tell TMZ … she felt it was the right thing to give back the ring -- as it was a family heirloom given to Ryan by his mom. We're told Gypsy Rose left the ring with Ryan when she made the decision to end her marriage  ... along with an apology note next to their bed on March 22.

The note read ... "I'm sorry, you and I deserve happiness."

Gypsy Rose Blanchard ya le devolvió su anillo de bodas a su marido Ryan Anderson, pues la pieza de joyería significaba mucho para él, según ha averiguado TMZ.

Fuentes cercanas a Gypsy Rose le dicen a TMZ que sintió que era lo correcto, ya que era una reliquia familiar que Ryan había recibido de su madre. Nos dicen que Gypsy Rose le dejó el anillo a Ryan cuando tomó la decisión de poner fin a su matrimonio junto con una nota de disculpa en su cama el 22 de marzo.

La nota decía: "Lo siento, tú y yo merecemos ser felices".

Houston Rockets star Jalen Green welcomed a baby girl to the world earlier this year ... but the mother has zero issues with the fact he's expecting another kid with his current girlfriend, Draya Michele -- 'cause TMZ Sports is told there is absolutely no bad blood in the situation.

Our sources tell us Green is, in fact, the father of a baby born on Feb. 12. The mother is 23-year-old California student Myah Iakopo.

We're told Green and Iakopo knew each other for a while ... but they were not ever in a serious relationship. Regardless, the former 2nd overall pick has vowed to be super involved in baby Peace Moira's life ... and is financially supporting the child as needed.

Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn Birkhead's all grown up ... rocking an outfit previously worn by Janet Jackson and attending Kentucky Derby events with her dad, Larry.

The 17-year-old appeared in Larry's recent Instagram post ... smiling in a couple cute father-daughter pics on the way to the Barnstable-Brown Gala -- a star-studded lead-up to Saturday's big race.

Check out the pic ... Dannielynn's in a full black get-up here, covered in zippers Larry said he bought from Julien's -- a popular auction house.

Edgar Lansbury, a Tony-winning producer and brother of late TV & Film star Angela Lansbury has died ... according to a post from one of his former stars.

Peggy Gordon -- who appeared in the original off-Broadway cast for the show "Godspell" -- shared the news on Facebook earlier this week. She didn't provide a cause of death but said his memorial would take place in the fall.

Edgar, born in London in 1930, first rose to prominence on the Broadway scene in the early 1960s ... when his show "The Subject Was Roses" starring Martin Sheen won him the Tony Award for Best Play.

The Bella Twins haven’t entered the squared-circle in years, but they aren't ready to hang up their boots ... telling TMZ Sports they aren't ruling out an in-ring return in the future -- they're just waiting for the right moment.

We chopped it up with the former WWE duo on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs on FS1) this week ... and asked them about the possibility of stepping back into the ring after some time away.

The sisters admitted they miss being in on the action ... but there has been some more important business to attend to lately -- motherhood.

Jeezy is firing back at his estranged wife, Jeannie Mai, whom he claims is out to smear him just because he didn't wanna have a second kid with her ... alleging she's out for revenge.

The rapper filed new legal docs in his divorce case with Jeannie, and he's offering up a firm defense to Jeannie's bombshell claims from last week -- in which she alleged Jeezy was reckless and abusive ... and that he'd gotten physical on at least one occasion.

Here in this new paperwork, obtained by TMZ, Jeezy once again denies any such notion -- just like he did when she first leveled the claims -- and asks a rhetorical question ... if I was so dangerous and abusive, why were you trying to have another baby with me???

Brooke Shields' daughters may be college-aged adults, but they're still mommy's girls at heart -- something their mother confessed to ... very proudly, we might add.

The actress swung by SiriusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show" Thursday, where she spilled on her incredibly close bond with daughters Rowan and Grier -- who are 20 and 18, respectively -- confirming they all still share a bed sometimes.

She explains ... "You know, the minute my husband is on any type of work trip or gone or something, you know, they still sleep in the bed with me. We still watch rom-coms. They're my babies and they will never not be."

John Leguizamo might not remember Patrick Swayze fondly all these years later -- but he might be pleased to know the feeling was mutual ... so says PS' brother.

We spoke to the late actor's sibling, Sean, who tells TMZ ... he actually recalls having a conversation with Pat on the heels of them wrapping production for their 1995 film 'To Wong Foo' -- in which Patrick and John both starred as drag queens.

According to Sean ... Patrick relayed to him that he found JL to be a difficult person, that he had an attitude and they butted heads a lot on set ... so that part of John's story's confirmed.

Ryan Gosling is staying away from heavy material when it comes to acting these days -- and the reason is simple ... he's got a family now, and doesn't wanna be a drag around them.

The actor talked to The Wall Street Journal about this -- explaining that he's simply not taking certain roles that he feels are too dark or psychologically screwy ... because accepting that kind of work will ultimately have an impact at home, with Eva Mendes and their kids.

RG says he considers what sorts of parts/movies will be good for the whole fam -- and he'll dive into stuff that he thinks will help him bond with his partner and their two daughters.
