Browns WR Corey Coleman Denies Apartment Brawl Allegations

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Corey Coleman has been named in a police report stemming from an alleged fight at an apartment complex on Saturday ... but is adamant he did nothing wrong.

Sources tell TMZ Sports ... Coleman was involved in a massive brawl that broke out in a Cleveland apartment complex around 4 AM on Saturday.

We're told the incident involved 2 groups of people -- Coleman was allegedly part of a 4 person group. The other group had 6 people.

At some point, an argument broke out and it got physical. We're told someone was injured in the melee and was taken to the hospital with bruises and ruptured eardrum.

Coleman's exact involvement is unclear -- but his agent, David Mulugheta, has issued a statement denying wrongdoing.

"Unfortunately Corey Coleman's name has surfaced in a police report concerning an incident that occurred in the lobby of the apartment complex in which he lives," Mulugheta says.

"Corey, while aware of the incident, denies the allegations that have been made and looks forward to clearing his name."

Emma Roberts Gets a Ring On It ... Take Two?

Emma Roberts put some weight on her left ring finger ... with a diamond piece that has all the markings of engagement ring #2 from Evan Peters.

Emma was out in Bev Hills Wednesday sporting what looks like a diamond and onyx ring. Interesting timing on the new bling ... considering she and longtime on/off bf Evan are just a few months into their latest reunion.

As we told you, the couple was spotted back in November doing some major PDA after they'd broken off engagement #1 earlier in 2016. They've had a rocky road at times -- a domestic violence incident in 2013, but maybe the kids have worked it out. Again.

The new ring's a big change from the old one. People change.

Hailey Baldwin Chandler Parsons Isn't Scoring ... We're Just Buds!!

Hailey Baldwin is blocking NBA star Chandler Parsons' shot ... or at least rumors he's taking a shot at dating her.

Sources close to Hailey tell us ... she's been friends with Chandler for a long time, but just isn't into him like that. They were spotted together in November for Hailey's birthday, sparking the rumors, but we're told it was just a meal between pals.

As for Chandler hooking up with Kendall Jenner -- our sources say that's also just a friendly thing ... at least for now. He knows her through Hailey.

'This is Us' Star Chrissy Metz Gastric Bypass Didn't Sideline Me It's a Bum Knee

DOWN BUT NOT OUT
TMZ.com

"This Is Us" star Chrissy Metz needed a wheelchair for a bum knee ... NOT because she underwent gastric bypass surgery.

Chrissy was in a wheelchair Tuesday at LAX ... because she hurt her knee in Florida during Xmas. She has some lingering pain but should be at full strength in a few days.

The wheelchair suggested she might've actually gone through with the surgery ... after her character, Kate Pearson, vowed in the last episode to have gastric bypass. Her people tell us she absolutely did not have gastric bypass.

Chrissy's people tell us the bum knee shouldn't impact shooting the show, or this weekend's Golden Globes, where she's nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

Antonio Gates I'm Coming Back For The Team ... Not For The Record

I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE

Antonio Gates needs just 1 TD to break Tony Gonzalez's all-time record -- but that's NOT why he's coming back next year ... telling TMZ Sports the Chargers can be "special" in 2017.

Gates tied TG at 111 touchdowns in the last game of the season -- then immediately announced he was returning for a 15th NFL year ... one that will see him playing at age 37.

Most thought it was so he could snag one TD to put him over the top ... but when we got Antonio out in L.A. he made it clear it's about the team's chances to be great ... not his chance to be legendary.

"I'm not coming back just for one touchdown."

Good man ... 'cause we would.

WHAT KURSE?
TMZSports.com

For the SECOND time this week, Kendall Jenner kicked it with alleged ex-flame NBA star Chandler Parsons ... this time, the two partied all over Hollywood -- begging the question ... back on?

The night started at Staples Center -- where Kendall was spotted in the crowd as Chandler and his Grizzlies took on the Lakers (they lost).

Later that night, they were both spotted at Craig's. Chandler played it cool when asked about Kendall.

The next meet-up was at Delilah. Kendall and her BFF, Hailey Baldwin, got there first. Chandler went separately.

After that, it was on to 1 OAK -- where multiple sources say they continued to hang.

And all of this just days after they were spotted at a Bentley dealership in L.A. at the same time on Monday.

Coincidence? Probably not ...

HIS KO'S COMIN'

Cody "No Love" Garbrandt says he was MERCIFUL to Dominick Cruz -- claiming he could've knocked him out "multiple times" at UFC 207 ... but was having too much fun toying with the guy.

Cody joined the guys on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs Tuesday night on FS1) -- and said he could pinpoint the moment he knew he had the fight locked ... but carried Cruz to the 5th round "for fun."

Garbrandt says he had such a great time beating Cruz he wants a rematch -- and says next time, Cruz won't make it past the 2nd.

Check out "TMZ Sports" weeknights on FS1.

Nicki Minaj, Meek Mill Possibly Over and Out

It's smellin' like a breakup between Meek Mill and Nicki Minaj.

Both Nicki and Meek performed separately in Miami for New Year's Eve, and they also partied separately afterward. Nicki performed at E11even nightclub and then stayed to party. Meek performed at Dream Nightclub 2 miles from E11even and stayed there.

Nicki showed up at E11even at 11:30 PM, but Meek didn't show up at Dream until 2:40 AM, which would have given him plenty of time to ring in 2017 with Nicki.

Meek was also partying in New York on December 30 ... with Nicki nowhere in sight. On January 1st, Meek went to LIV nightclub in Miami and she wasn't there.

We're told they weren't together on Christmas Day as well.

Given their history of hanging together around the holidays, it's interesting.

Don McLean This Chick's Not My American Pie! Even If She Wants To Be

Don McLean says don't let big diamonds fool you ... he's not engaged to a smokin' hot, much younger babe ... hmmmm.

Paris Dylan is NOT his fiancee ... so says Don's rep, who adds the relationship is strictly professional.

The 22-year-old model's been blowing up her page with pics of her and Don together for the holidays, with captions like "Aloha & Merry Christmas from my Donny and I" ... all while wearing a fat rock on her ring finger.

Paris does Don's social media. You'll recall his wife filed for divorce earlier this year.

So bye bye, Paris. No Mrs. American Pie here ... so they say.

JLo A Girl Can Change Her Mind I Went to Vegas for Drake!!!

So this is interesting ... JLo changed her mind about the whole "stay at home for the holidays" thing and headed off to Vegas to watch Drake perform.

JLo's sources told us a few weeks ago she was cancelling her lucrative appearance in Miami for NYE because she got a new home last year, and was working so much she had no time to enjoy it. What better time, she said, than the holidays where she could relax with family.

So why Vegas, and why Drake? People in their camp say something's going on, but we're still skeptical because they have new tunes together.

To be continued ...

T.I. & Tiny Don't Stick a Fork In 'Em Just Yet

There's still hope for T.I. and Tiny ... because we're told they're still very much on talking terms despite the divorce ... and there are major signs they could call the whole divorce thing off.

TMZ has learned ... after Tiny filed for divorce Dec. 7, the two have gotten together in person at least twice and sources very close to the couple tell us "things got romantic."

We're told there are still major issues with the relationship -- the word that keeps being thrown around on both sides is "trust."

At the core ... T.I. and Tiny have been together for nearly 20 years and really do seem to love each other.

By the way, T.I. was at Tiny's home around Christmastime and they got along great.

Bottom line ... if Vegas took action on these two, we'd bet on a reconciliation.

J Lo and Drake Fake Love, Papi?

Drake and Jennifer Lopez are officially cuddling on camera ... but this pose looks too good for us to believe it's anything but genius marketing.

Drake and J Lo both posted this same pic early Wednesday morning, showing them getting cozy ... with Drizzy looking right into the camera with those dreamy eyes.

The 2 artists recently announced they're working on new music together, which is why they say they've been hanging out so much lately ... despite rumors they're hooking up.

With that now out there, we gotta say ... this kinda makes us feel no ways.

'Breaking Bad' Star Blasts Political Rival's Lawsuit ... She's a Bad Loser!!

Hillary's emails got nothing on a political scandal rocking the state of New Mexico ... and it's fitting a "Breaking Bad" star's at the center of it.

Steven Michael Quezada, who played Agent Gomez on the hit show set in N.M., got sued by Patricia Paiz, whom he just defeated for County Commissioner of Bernalillo County's District 2.

Paiz claims Quezada's wife filled out his election documents, which is a violation of campaign laws. What's more, Paiz says Quezada was not even in New Mexico the day the docs were filed, which she says is required under state law.

Quezada is callng BS ... firing back with these photos he says prove he was indeed at the County Clerk's office the day in question.

Short story ... Paiz wants the County Commissioner to rule Quezada was not eligible to run and therefore he can't be elected, which would give her the win by default.

Quezada points to the fact that he kicked her ass ... 62% to 38%.

Gisele Ummmm ... Pregnant??

Can't ignore the obvious ... Gisele Bundchen had a pretty obvious bump during a modeling shoot in Brazil earlier this month -- begging the question ... preggo???

Gisele and Tom Brady were extra touchy-feely during a DeflateGate vacation to Italy back in September ... back when G's belly was its typical flat self.

So, could baby #3 be on the way for the 36-year-old supermodel ... or was it just a big lunch?

Donald Trump Singers Fear Blackballing If They Perform at Inauguration

There's a secret scare in the music world over Donald Trump's inauguration ... some singers and bands want to perform but they're getting cold feet because they're worried it will hurt their career.

Sources in the music industry connected with people who have been "on the list" tell us ... some of the singers and groups have floated rumors they might perform to judge the public reaction ... which by and large has scared them into running for the hills instead of towards the Hill.

We're told trial balloons were floated by at least 4 camps ... we're told everyone's so scared of the backlash the camps will never admit they've even entertained the prospect of singing at the inauguration ... they're all so worried it will negatively impact the artists' careers.

It's a sea change from every other inauguration. Up to now it didn't matter if it was a Dem or a Republican ... there were enough big stars willing to perform it wasn't a problem.

As we've reported, Trump is not obsessing over big names at the inauguration or the various balls. He just wants "traditional" events.
