Gossip / Rumors

Rob Kardashian may not only be re-emerging, he might be trying to hook up with the likes of Karrueche Tran.

Rob just posted a pic of his iPhone screen that shows a conversation he was having with Chris Brown's ex, which included a sexy pic of herself. He captioned it, "I like when she send me pictures."

As for the contact info on his phone, he lists her as "Karrooooooooochieeeeee."

Remember, Brown has a penchant for threatening anyone who appears to get close to his ex, including Tyson Beckford.

Rob is trying to downplay chatter that he and Karrueche are banging by saying, "Yall dumb af. I been Friends with Karoooooch since high school. F*** outta here with your negative s***."

Nick Cannon sure seemed to be giving a signal the story that he's now hooked up with a former "America's Got Talent" contestant is BS ... because he hit the town Wednesday with a different girl.

Nick and Winnie Harlow showed up at Mr. Chow, where he clearly knew the paparazzi would be out in force. Winnie is a model for Diesel who was a contestant on "America's Next Top Model."

There were reports he's dating Samantha Johnson, who looks vaguely similar to Mariah, but it appears Nick wanted to squash those rumors.

Jessica Simpson wasn't drunk during her HSN debut and you'd know that if you watched the entire two-hour segment ... which would be more painful than eating glass.

Sources close to Jessica say the clip circulating of her giggling and slurring is just part of her personality that surfaces from time to time. They say for the lion's share of her time on the show, she was lucid and polished.

They say 2 hours without a script creates inevitable less than perfect moments.

An HSN source also says she was not drunk.

Fact is ... HSN is singing her praises, saying Jessica really knows how to drive a sale.

Beyonce dropped a giant clue for all those people speculating she's pregnant again -- and they're gonna be disappointed.

Bey raised a glass of bubbly for a photo during her family vaca in Italy, and then posted the pic ... no doubt a not-so-subtle response to all the baby buzz.

Shots of Beyonce in a one-piece swimsuit earlier this week fueled speculation Blue Ivy was going to become an older sister. Besides the champagne ... consider the fact that riding around on boat after boat wouldn't pair well with morning sickness.

We can already hear the conspiracy theorists -- "She's not drinking the champagne!"

Always leave 'em guessing.

Jaden Smith's got himself an older woman, and he's showing her off all over NYC.

17-year-old Smith was out with his 19-year-old girlfriend Sarah Snyder in SoHo on Wednesday after attending a NYFW show. Snyder is a social media fashionista with a ton of followers.

Reports say the two have been together for a few months and judging by the pics, the youngins are getting pretty comfortable with each other.

We know what you're thinking ... age of consent in NY State is 17.

BTW -- if Sarah looks familiar -- it's because she was arrested in NY for allegedly stealing a $16,000 Hermes Birkin bag back in June.

Christie Brinkley is still with the band.

The uptown girl had dinner with rocker John Mellencamp Monday night in downtown Manhattan ... fueling rumors they've hooked up.

She's hasn't been linked to anyone since 2008 when she divorced her 4th husband. Mellencamp recently broke it off with longtime GF Meg Ryan and also has 3 marriages under his belt ... so lots in common to talk about at dinner.

Travis Scott is a real kiss and tell kind of guy ... or he's just under Rihanna's spell.

Scott had a show in Santa Ana, CA Monday night when he let the entire sold-out crowd know just how lucky he's getting with Rihanna. Scott cleverly switched up the lyrics to his track, "3500."

The original lyrics are, "One time for the trill bitches that'll let me touch it.”

But watch at about 13 seconds you'll hear ... "One time for the RiRi that'll let me touch it.”

This video ... combined with their recent make-out sesh at NY Fashion Week ... should convince doubters RiRi and Travis are the real deal -- or maybe it just looks like a giant PR stunt.

One little U.S. Open loss isn't gonna break Serena Williams and Drake -- they went extremely public with their relationship at her fashion show in NYC.

The PDA went down right after Serena's Fashion Week event ... and not only did they share a kiss on camera -- his lips to her hand -- but she also used a bunch of his songs during the show.

Here's the thing though, you really gotta see how these 2 are staring into each other's eyes backstage.

Actress Sanaa Lathan -- who has the #1 movie out right now -- is #2 this year on the people French Montana has dated.

Our photog got the star of "The Perfect Guy" out at Mastro's in Bev Hills Monday night, and her reaction to Khloe Kardashian's ex was coy but revealing.

Lewis Hamilton took a Rihanna detour (it's the thing to do, after all) ... but ended up right back with Kendall Jenner -- 'cause they were spotted out in NYC together looking pretty cozy.

The Kendall/Lewis rumors started swirling earlier this year when she was walking around the Monaco Grand Prix wearing what looked like his chain.

But then hurricane Rihanna started blowing in August, and it sure as hell looked like Lewis had moved on ... but you know how RiRi romances go.

Cut to NYC ... where it's now Fashion week. It's a huge event for KJ, so it's interesting that Lewis is hanging with her again. Kinda like when she showed up in Monaco for him.

Rihanna has pretty much connected the dots ... she's dating Travis Scott.

RiRi and Travis left the Gramercy Theatre Wednesday night where he had just performed. It's the third time they've been together this week.

Side note: Check out how Rihanna air kisses her fans. She has the antiseptic greeting down pat.

Here's Drake's dad ... trying to play it cool when asked how he feels about his son gettin' up close and personal with the greatest tennis player who ever lived recently -- but what does it all mean?!!?

It's an interesting clip ... and not just because Dennis Graham hit up 1 OAK on a Tuesday.

Look, we all know Drake and Serena had a thing a few years ago -- and seem to have reconnected again recently, as evidenced by these pics of the two all over each other at an Italian restaurant.

But when we asked Dennis about his son's relationship with Serena -- it was all about deflection, deflection, deflection.

So, is this Dennis trying hard not to say anything to tick off his son ... or do you really think he doesn't know what's going on with the two?

Check out the clip ... and notice the OVO owl chain he's wearing.

Drake is taking this SWOLL patrol thing very seriously, especially in the arms department ... and it might have something to do with impressing his lady friend Serena Williams.

Champagne Papi hit the gym -- it was a curls-for-the-girls day ... and you gotta think all that upper body strength will come in handy on date night. Fact is, Serena's physique is world class -- so you'd expect Drizzy to step up his game too.

When Serena's the gain, you don't mind the pain.

The Weeknd and Bella Hadid made it photographically official Tuesday night ... leaving a club hand in hand.

They've been dating on the down-low for 4 months but last night clearly wanted it known ... they're together as they locked hands leaving Up and Down Nightclub in NYC.

A little background ... she's 18, he's 25.

Good looking couple for sure.

Fred Durst is being credited for getting Slash and Axl Rose talking again -- possibly for a reunion -- and he not-so-coyly hinted that Guns 'N Roses are about to go on tour.

Fred was leaving Craig's in West Hollywood Monday night when our photog invited him to take credit for what could be one of the most awesome reunions in years.

Don't let this photo fool you ... Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are not getting back together.

The pic was taken Thursday, and it looks like the former couple is simpatico. But sources closely connected to the couple tell TMZ, there is no reconciliation and no chance for one.

We're told Ben has actually moved out of the family house, where he was staying in the guest quarters. He's currently living in a Pacific Palisades home.

As for the photo, our sources say Ben and Jen are civilized, especially when dealing with issues involving their 3 kids.

As one source says, "The damage is already done. They're leading separate lives."
