Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce both traveled more than a thousand miles to end up in the same city ... but they spent the night apart.

Taylor's in L.A. for the Golden Globes Sunday night, and Travis is in town for Chiefs vs. Chargers around the same time.

Taylor, along with pals Brittany Mahomes and Lyndsay Bell, hit up Wolfgang Puck's Spago in Bev Hills Saturday night, sans Travis. It makes sense ... Travis is getting ready for the game, and a night out would have made the wrong kind of headlines.

They entered Spago from the back alley after leaving from Taylor's Bev Hills estate.

The lowdown from inside the restaurant ... nothing spectacular. They laughed, they talked, they ate. She apparently, was a bit preoccupied on her phone ... hmmm, wonder who she was texting?

It's highly unlikely Taylor will attend the game ... the red carpet starts at 3:30 and Travis's game starts around 2 hours earlier ... that is, unless she goes to the Golden Globes in a Chiefs jacket!

As for the girls' night out ... it was a long one. They arrived at 7:30 and left at 11.

Tom Sandoval is getting some sweet revenge on a recently shut down L.A. bakery ... for selling "Sandoval's A Liar" and "Team Ariana" cakes following his Scandoval controversy last year.

News that L.A.'s Sweet Lady Jane bakery was closing down came as a real treat for Tom ... after his "Vanderpump Rules" costar Billie Lee tagged him in the comments of their sad IG announcement, writing "karma!?" with a laughing emoji.

Tom went all in ... commenting everything he'd tried from the bakery had been super dry ... suggesting that others had finally caught on ... leading to their dwindling sales and subsequent closure.

He added their attempts to make money selling cakes negatively using his name hurt his feelings and pushed him over the edge ... and for that, good riddance.

Tom appeared to be in the minority, though, as the bakery was clearly a Hollywood staple ... with Blake Lively commenting she was heartbroken and Chrissy Teigen and Sophia Bush also making their devastation known.

Even though the cake shop hurt his ego, it was probably the least of his concerns ... as he found himself in the biggest celebrity controversy of 2023.

It was tagged #Scandoval by 'VPR' fans when TMZ first broke the story in March ... he'd been cheating on longtime GF Ariana Madix with costar Rachel Leviss ...

If people risking jail time for a mug -- like some are to nab a limited edition Stanley Quencher Starbucks cup -- here's what ya gotta know ... they're making tons of money on the resale market.

It's pretty wild, and a sign of the times ... the pink cups retail for $49.95 at Starbucks branches inside Targets, and folks who've been able to snag them are turning around, and hawking them online for hundreds of dollars.

The resellers are working hard for that big payday, though ... the only way to get the cups seems to be camping outside Target for hours, or fighting through massive crowds in scenes straight out of Black Friday.

Other people are going to even greater lengths to try and cash in -- like the guy who hopped a counter and tried, unsuccessfully, to steal a whole box of the pink goodies.

On eBay, the pink cups are going for $250 to $280 ... and Mercari has them on sale for $225 to $300.

Social media is a factor too ... Stanley cups are wildly popular on Instagram and TikTok ... so there's huge demand and limited supply.

The limited-edition Stanley Cup fever has officially reached new heights ... with a desperate man jumping over the counter at a Target's Starbucks stall to steal a whole box of them.

Unclear which store it happened at ... but the footage picks up as the man kicks his way out of the coffee stall with the goods in hand. Almost immediately, bystanders and potentially store security step in ... with one person wrestling him to the ground.

The box is eventually pried out of the would-be thief's hands after a scuffle on the floor ... but the man appears to walk out of the store with one of the hot pink 40-ounce Stanley tumblers.

Stanley's special-edition cups, co-designed with Starbucks, were released Wednesday ... kickstarting mass chaos nationwide as tumbler enthusiasts pulled out all the stops to get their hands on them -- as seen in other viral clips.

The Burger King employee who went viral for getting a mediocre goodie bag in recognition of 27 years without missing work is finally seeing his dedication pay off ... in a massive way.

Kevin Ford tells TMZ … he bought a house on Dec. 13 with money raised from the GoFundMe his daughter set up for him in the wake of last summer's online fame.

Kevin says he walked away with about $350,000 from the crowdsourcing fund -- it raised almost $500K but GoFundMe took a sizeable chunk -- and he used about half to buy a place in Pahrump, Nevada for $177,000.

Kevin's new place has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and is 846 square feet ... with a covered front deck, fenced-in yard and views of the surrounding mountains. He says he's gonna invest more money into the place too.

With the rest of his GoFundMe cash, Kevin says he gave his daughter a chunk so she could put it toward a home for herself and his grandkids ... and he put the rest away for retirement.

Remember ... Kevin went viral back in June 2022 when his employer gave him a goodie bag with random candies to celebrate him going 27 years without missing a day on the job.

Kevin's daughter piggybacked off his viral moment and set up a GoFundMe so he could visit his family in Texas ... and David Spade was among the big-money donors.

Naturally, Kevin is still working at BK, but there's been a big change -- he says he's now missed one day ... for an appearance on the "Today" show.

Kevin says his new digs are about an hour away from work, but he likes driving so he doesn't mind the long commute.

It's pretty incredible ... Kevin tells us the viral fame literally saved his life. He says he was depressed and the support from strangers not only put a new roof over his head, but also saved his life.

Lisa Vanderpump's original PUMP restaurant's moved to green pastures, but an iconic part of its decor remains as new owners move into the space ... and we're told her olive trees aren't going anywhere.

Mario Vollera owns Roosterfish, which is taking over PUMP's old location in West Hollywood, and he tells TMZ ... when he and the other owners checked out the space, they all strongly requested that the big trees in the outdoor patio stay put.

We're told the trees ultimately ended up being a big part of the sale agreement, and Mario wanted them untouched because they bring prosperity and good luck ... not to mention, they're beautiful and add a lot to the space's ambiance.

TMZ broke the story back in May that PUMP was closing its doors ... and the "Vanderpump Rules" crew -- along with tons of locals and fans -- all said goodbye during its closing weekend in July.

El restaurante PUMP, original de Lisa Vanderpump, se ha cambiado de ubicación, pero una parte icónica de su decoración se mantiene mientras los nuevos propietarios se mudan al espacio y nos dicen que sus olivos no van a ninguna parte.

Mario Vollera es dueño de Roosterfish -que se está haciendo cargo de la antigua ubicación de PUMP en West Hollywood- y le dice a TMZ que cuando él y los otros propietarios revisaron el espacio, todos pidieron encarecidamente que los grandes árboles en el patio al aire libre se quedaran.

Nos dicen que los árboles terminaron siendo gran parte del acuerdo de venta y Mario quería que no se toquen, ya que traen prosperidad y buena suerte, por no hablar de lo hermosos que son.

TMZ publicó la historia de que PUMP estaba cerrando sus puertas y junto a un montón de lugareños y aficionados, todos dijeron adiós durante su fin de semana de cierre en julio.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard se ha convertido en una gigante de las redes sociales, acumulando millones de seguidores y posiblemente preparándose para hacer una fortuna.

Gypsy tiene ahora la friolera de 4.7 millones de seguidores en Instagram. Acaba de publicar sus cuentas de Snapchat y TikTok en su página de Instagram. Además, ella tiene 1.4 millones de fans TikTok.

Ella publicó esto: "Acabo de unirme a SnapChat, estos avatares son impresionantes!" También realizó un especial de Lifetime.

Ella tenía una página de Instagram, pero no era nada fuera de lo común. De eso a 1.2 millones hay mucha diferencia, y lo ha hecho en un período de tiempo muy corto.

En cuanto al futuro... ella se está preparando para hacer un paquete en redes sociales, lo cual es interesante. Antes de que la encerraran casi nadie podía ganarse la vida en las redes sociales, pero los tiempos cambian.

También está trabajando en algún tipo de programa/documental/reality show para A&E.

Por ahora, Gypsy está disfrutando de las cosas simples de la libertad después de cumplir siete años entre las rejas por el asesinato de su madre. Se hace selfies y visita McDonalds y Burger King.

​Gypsy Rose Blanchard has become an instant social media giant since her release ... amassing millions of followers and possibly setting herself up to make a fortune.

Gypsy now has an eye-popping 4.7 million followers on Instagram. She's just pushed both her Snapchat and TikTok accounts on her Insta page. BTW she has 1.4 million TikTok fans.

She posted this ... "Just joined SnapChat. These avatars are awesome!" Also – she pushed the Lifetime special on there yesterday as well.

She had an Instagram page, but it was static at 1.2M upon her release, so she's gained millions in a super-compressed period of time.

As for the future ... she's setting herself up to make a bundle on social media, which is interesting. When she was locked up, almost no one could make a living on social, but times change.

In the money department, she's also working on some kind of show/documentary/reality show for A&E.

For now, Gypsy is enjoying the simple things of freedom after serving 7 years behind bars for the murder of her mother. She's trying her hand at selfies, and hitting up McDonalds and Burger King.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard está celebrando que salió de la cárcel y su familia la está recibiendo con los brazos abiertos.

Tienen que ver estas fotos de la famosa criminal disfrutando de una fiesta de bienvenida con sus seres queridos, incluyendo su padre, su madrastra, su hermanastra y su marido.

Gypsy aparece sonriendo de oreja a oreja en las fotos, posando con su padre Rod Blanchard y su esposa, Kristy. También se reunió con su hermanastra Mia Blanchard.

Parece que la familia se esforzó mucho con la fiesta. Había globos dorados que decían "BIENVENIDA A CASA", además de decoración, pasteles, aperitivos y Champagne.

Gypsy incluso abrió una botella de burbujas al igual que su marido Ryan.

Como ustedes saben, Gypsy salió de la cárcel en libertad condicional el jueves después de pasar siete años tras las rejas por su condena por el asesinato de su madre Dee Dee.

Desde que fue liberada, hemos visto a Gypsy comprando nuevos zapatos, viviendo en un hotel y visitando un McDonald's.

Gypsy y Ryan aparecieron en el autoservicio de Mickey D's el viernes, para su primera comida afuera y parece que se perdieron los Arcos Dorados.

Gypsy Rose Blanchard is celebrating her release from prison ... and her family is welcoming her back with open arms.

Ya gotta see these photos of the famous felon enjoying a welcome home party with her loved ones ... including her father, stepmom, stepsister and her husband.

Gypsy is smiling from ear to ear in snaps from the party ... posing for pics with father Rod Blanchard and his wife, Kristy. GRB's also reuniting with stepsister Mia Blanchard.

Looks like the fam went all out for the bash ... there's gold balloons spelling out "WELCOME HOME" plus confetti, cake, snacks and Champagne.

Gypsy even popped a bottle of bubbly ... as did her hubby Ryan.

As you know ... Gypsy got out of prison on parole Thursday after spending 7 years behind bars for her conviction in her mother Dee Dee's murder.

Since being freed, we've seen Gypsy shopping for new shoes, living out of a hotel and hitting up a McDonald's.

Gypsy and Ryan hit the drive-thru Friday at Mickey D's for her first restaurant meal on the outside ... and it looks like she missed the Golden Arches.

Gypsy's mixing in some quality time with the family too ... at the tail end of the holidays ... and everyone looks super happy.

Dwayne Johnson NO es el virgen de In-N-Out Burger que dice ser.

"The Rock" publicó un divertido video a principios de esta semana afirmando que estaba probando In-N-Out Burger por primera vez. El clip generó mucha atención y resultó ser buena publicidad para la cadena.

Mientras disfrutamos de la producción de Dwayne y su entusiasmo por las hamburguesas In-N-Out, las patatas fritas, el proceso de drive-thru sin problemas y sus amables empleados, nos dimos cuenta de que ha hecho esto mismo antes.

De hecho, esta es la TERCERA vez que Dwayne menciona ir a In-N-Out por primera vez.

Curiosamente, Dwayne publicó un video en Instagram en agosto de 2022 documentando una comida de In-N-Out Double-Doubles, patatas fritas y su propia marca de tequila.

Por supuesto, Dwayne mezcló tequilas reposado y blanco en el mismo vaso para lavar su In-N-Out el año pasado, así que tal vez se olvidó de todo el asunto.

Pero luego está el hecho de que The Rock también publicó sobre su "primera" experiencia en In-N-Out en 2017, esa vez fue solo una selfie con un par de empleados de In-N-Out en la ventanilla de autoservicio.

En su publicación de febrero de 2017, Dwayne añadió un largo pie de foto explicando que su esposa y su hija querían In-N-Out. También prometió "destruir múltiples hamburguesas" si su película "Moana" ganaba un Oscar unos días después... bueno, la película no lo consiguió.

Así que Dwayne ha estado en In-N-Out y ha probado la comida antes de afirmar esta semana que estaba teniendo su "primera experiencia" en la popular cadena.

Anthony Bourdain dijo una vez que conseguiría más likes en las publicaciones de IG sobre In-N-Out que en las fotos con grandes celebridades y parece que Dwayne también quiere algo de eso.

Dwayne Johnson is NOT the In-N-Out Burger virgin he claims to be.

"The Rock" posted a fun video earlier this week claiming he was trying In-N-Out Burger for the first time ... leading to a lot of attention, headlines and pats on the back.

While we enjoyed Dwayne's production and his zest for In-N-Out hamburgers, fries, the smooth drive-thru process and their friendly employees ... we noticed he's done this same thing before.

In fact, this is the THIRD time Dwayne's mentioned going to In-N-Out for the first time.

Funnily enough, Dwayne posted a video on Instagram in August 2022 documenting a cheat meal of In-N-Out Double-Doubles, fries and his own brand of tequila.

Of course, Dwayne mixed reposado and blanco tequilas in the same glass to wash down his In-N-Out last year ... so maybe he forgot about the whole thing.

But then there's the fact The Rock also posted about his "first" In-N-Out experience back in 2017 ... that time it was just a selfie with a couple In-N-Out employees at the drive-thru window.

In his February 2017 post, Dwayne added a long caption explaining his wife and daughter wanted In-N-Out. He also promised to "destroy multiple burgers" should his "Moana" movie win an Oscar a few days later ... well, the movie came up empty.

So, Dwayne's at least been to In-N-Out and tried the food before claiming this week he was having his "first ever" experience at the popular chain.

Anthony Bourdain once said he would get more likes on IG posts about In-N-Out than pics with huge celebs ... and it seems Dwayne's wanting some of that engagement too.

A Palestinian restaurant in NYC recently opened to some bad reviews – and it's all because of its antisemitic menu.

"Ayat" eatery – which had three locations in the Big Apple -- opened a fourth last week in the largely Jewish Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn, upsetting many of the patrons with the offensive language on the menu.

The phrases "from the river to the sea" and "down with the occupation" were scrawled across the menus handed out to fuming customers, who later went on Facebook to blast Ayat's owners for being "openly genocidal."

Of course, everyone knows the slogan "from the river to the sea" has been used as a rallying cry to wipe out Israel. The anti-Defamation League has even labeled the phrase antisemitic.

But, Ayat's owners – Abdul Elenani and his wife, Masoud – chalked it off to a misunderstanding, saying they have "no ill will" toward Jewish people.

In a Facebook post, Abdul wrote that "our interpretation on it is just simply freedom and rights to the Palestinian people between the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea." He added, "We're just against the Zionist mentality of, like, eliminate or flatten now."

As you know, tensions have been riding high in the Middle East since October 7th when Hamas militants attacked Israel, slaughtering about 1,400 Jews, including babies.

A day later, Israel declared war against Hamas – a terrorist group governing the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The Kardashians had their splashy, annual XMAS soiree, and it was pretty glam.

Now that the brood is overrun with kids, it made sense to make it kid-themed, though still swanky. The adults wore cocktail attire, with Kim in a metallic blue, off-the-shoulder gown.

It seems like it was tons of fun, as Kim and the kids sled down a hill with fake snow ... sorry folks, it's the best we can do in SoCal. Check out the vid ... Paris Hilton is right behind Kim.

Even though the snow was fake, North and other kids were pretty chill, waiting their turns to sled down the hill.

At one point Kim and Paris sledded down the hill in an inflatable raft, and busted out laughing when they hit the bottom.

Babyface serenaded the crowd, as the guests, including David Geffen, Nicky Hilton, and O.T. Genasis watched.

And what's a party without Kardashian-branded products ... Coca-Cola bottles with "Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve Party 2023" custom written on the back. And check out the gingerbread house with "Candy Shop" written in script above the door.

Kim showed off the amazing forest in her backyard with snow-covered pine trees dotting the impressive property.

Las Kardashian celebraron su espléndida velada anual de Navidad y fue bastante glamurosa.

Ahora que la prole está plagada de niños, tenía sentido hacerla con temática infantil, aunque siempre elegante. Los adultos llevaban un atuendo de cóctel, con Kim en un azul metálico y un vestido con hombros descubiertos.

Parece que fue muy divertido, Kim y los niños se divirtieron en el trineo por una colina de nieve falsa, lo siento amigos, es lo mejor que podemos hacer. Échale un vistazo al video, Paris Hilton está justo detrás de Kim.

A pesar de que la nieve era falsa, Norte y los otros niños disfrutaban el frío y esperaron su turno para deslizarse por la colina.

En un momento dado, Kim y Paris bajaron en trineo por la colina en una balsa inflable y estallaron en carcajadas cuando llegaron al fondo.

Babyface le dio una serenata a la multitud, mientras los invitados, entre ellos David Geffen y Nicky Hilton, miraban.

Y lo que es una fiesta sin productos de marca Kardashian, Botellas de Coca-Cola con "Kardashian-Jenner Fiesta de Nochebuena 2023" personalizado escrito en la parte posterior. Y échale un vistazo a la casa de pan de jengibre con "Candy Shop" escrito en la escritura por encima de la puerta.

Kim mostró el increíble bosque en su patio trasero con pinos cubiertos de nieve que salpican la impresionante propiedad.
