Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx are on the waterfront ahead of New Year's Eve -- and on the issue of jet skis ... Katie's leading the charge into battle.

The couple mounted some WaveRunners Saturday in Miami, and made a splash cruising around Biscayne Bay ... where Katie served as the pilot, and Jamie her trusty #2. She was ahead of him for most of the ride, and really seemed to have a handle on things.

KH and JF have been in Florida on a romantic getaway since at least Friday, where they've been staying in a luxury yacht ... just the two of them, as far as we can tell.

Going out as a couple has been a gradual progression for them since last September, when they first went public with their longtime relationship. Since then, they've been seen out together more and more ... and this is just their latest display of being boo'd up.

If Tekashi 6ix9ine made a Christmas list this year, he must have forgotten to check it twice ... because his daughter got jack squat from her dad.

Sources close to the rapper's family tell TMZ ... his baby mama, Sara, and their 3-year-old girl, Saraiyah, have not heard a peep from him since he's been locked up on federal racketeering charges, and that includes Christmas Day.

We're told while 69 managed to gift his girlfriend Jade a brand new G-Wagon while he's behind bars -- which she proudly flaunted on Instagram -- but he didn't deliver anything to Saraiyah for the holidays.

Our sources say 6ix9ine hasn't exactly been a present father to Saraiyah, despite the image he's tried to project online ... so the absence of gifts isn't a big surprise.

It's interesting ... 69 was present for his girl's 3rd birthday party in October -- just hours after he dodged jail time in his child sex case -- and looked happy to be hanging with his family.

There's a bright side, though -- we're told despite Saraiyah being forgotten by her father, she got a lot of nice Xmas presents from the rest of her family ... and has plenty of love and support.

If wine, cheese, meat and Kenny G is your idea of a great time for New Year's Eve ... keep reading 'cause you're in luck.

The famous saxophonist will headline the Blue Note in Napa Valley this weekend to ring in the New Year. And, just as impressive as Kenny performing is the menu itself for NYE. The joint's bringing in nearly 100 pounds of steak to cover its brunch and dinner ... plus 550 pounds of dessert!!!

There's gonna be 30 pounds of white chocolate alone ... and more than 500 glasses of wine are expected to be guzzled. It's Napa, duh. The Blue Note expects to meat out more than 200 burgers, and 400 of Kenny's special cocktails made with his very own Hana Gin.

There'll be a pre-fixed 3-course dinner ... including a butternut squash soup with fried goat cheese. The main course -- short rib marmalade. For dessert, try the white chocolate mousse with toasted macadamia nuts.

Pucker up because we've got enough puppy love to go around!

These famous faces are prepared for more than just a peck at midnight ... take a lap through our gallery of sloppy celeb pooch smooches and see the stars that are ready for a crazy canine kiss!

Sam Darnold learned a brutal rookie lesson Friday -- if you don't take care of your offensive lineman ... YOU GET YOUR WHEELS JACKED!!!!

At least, that's according to Jamal Adams ... who says the Jets QB's Christmas gifts to his O-Linemen were so trash -- the big fellas literally ripped the front wheels straight off his whip!!

"Damn, Sam! Damn, Sam I Am!!! They got your ass, rook!!!!," Adams says.

There was some initial confusion with Adams as to why the Toyota assault took place ... with Jamal thinking Darnold had completely forgotten to get gifts for the guys who protect his life.

Turns out ... Sam DID get them presents -- they just sucked.

"He did get 'em gifts. He did. He did. They just didn't like 'em!!!"

Worst part of the whole situation? It's pouring in NY ... so, Sam's gotta deal with that mess in the rain on a Friday.

Kanye West gave Kim Kardashian a $14 MILLION Xmas present.

Kanye made a deal to buy a mega-unit in a super, super exclusive Miami Beach condo building, dubbed "Billionaire Beach Bunker" ... TMZ has confirmed.

The 18-story building is occupied by hedge fund gazillionaires and ridiculously rich land developers.

We're told Kanye scoped the place out on his own while in town for Art Basel, and Kim had never even seen it. Kanye has fairly deep ties to the city. He's a regular at the Basel. Kim also did a show there ... "Kourtney & Kim Take Miami."

Our sources say Kanye secretly made the offer this month and surprised Kim on Xmas day.

The unit sounds awesome. It's 4,700 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths and an insanely large terrace. The building is tricked out with a gym, pool and spa.

Obviously, it's right on the beach.

They actually got a deal ... sort of. It was originally listed at $15.5 million.

Page Six first confirmed the story. The deal is set to close next month.

This is one clever way to avoid visiting family during the holidays -- Jean-Jacques Savin has boarded a vessel in an attempt to cross the Atlantic Ocean relying only on the current and wind.

After spending months to build a barrel-shaped capsule, the 71-year-old Frenchman jumped in his vessel off the coast of El Hierro in the Canary Islands. His mission -- to cross most of the Atlantic and ultimately reach the Caribbean ... either Barbados or the French islands of Martinique or Guadeloupe.

According to reports ... Savin's gonna spend the next 3 months inside his vessel that's already 11 miles away from his origin. He's reportedly gone just 1 to 2 miles per hour since leaving Wednesday.

Savin -- who funded the $66k trip through crowdfunding and a sponsor -- calls the expedition a "crossing during which man isn't a captain of his ship, but a passenger of the ocean." He reportedly loaded up his 10-foot by 6-foot vessel with a bottle of Sauternes white wine and a block of foie gras to celebrate New Year's Eve. He's also got a bottle of Saint-Émilion red to celebrate his 72nd birthday in January.

Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost have a hell of a weekend update ... PDAing in Argentina's capital city the day after Christmas.

The 'Avengers' and 'SNL' stars are in the touristy town of Palermo in Buenos Aires. They were total normies ... sightseeing, holding hands and walking arm in arm. It seemed pretty intimate ... nevermind their bodyguard.

The couple spent Xmas weekend in El Calafate, where they took in the massive Perito Moreno Glacier ... a must-see when visiting the southern part of Argentina.

As we first reported ... Scarlett and Colin started dating back in June 2017 and things really heated up during a romantic dinner a couple weeks later.

Stefon Diggs won Son of the Year AND Brother of the Year awards in just a couple hours on Christmas ... 'cause the WR got his mom a new car and his bros diamond chains!!!

The Vikings superstar started his Santa impression Tuesday with a Mercedes ... delivering it to his mom on the holiday in a fashion she'll never forget.

"You get 1 mom... here’s something for the lady that put up with all my craziness. Merry Christmas everyone," Diggs wrote.

But, his bag of toys didn't end there ... the dude also had diamond shovels (get it, Diggs??) made by Al the Jeweler for his brothers!!!

It's a huge Christmas haul for the Diggs fam ... but don't worry -- we got a feeling this is a trend that'll continue for years -- Stefon just signed a 5-year, $72-MILLION deal!!

Eddie Murphy's family tree was on full display this Christmas ... and he looked like a proud papa right in the center of it.

The comedian was encircled by his 10 children Tuesday in a holiday family photo that included his fiancee, Paige Butcher, along with her mother and his mom, Lillian. The pic was shared on Instagram by his eldest daughter, Bria.

Eddie's smiling while holding his daughter he shares with Paige, Izzy Oona, while Paige introduces their newborn son, Max Charles, to the world. The boy was born November 30.

Murphy's other kids in the pic include his oldest son, Eric, whom he shares with Paulette McNeely, his son, Christian, whom he shares with Tamara Hood, his daughters, Bella Zahra, Zola Ivy, Shayne Audra and Bria and son Miles Mitchell ... he shares those 5 with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy.

And rounding it out, front and center, is his daughter, Angel Iris, whom he shares with Mel B.

The photo marks the first time Eddie's posed with all 10 of his kids. Bria captioned the pic, "Merry Christmas!!!"

He's already got the right beard, and on Christmas Eve ... James Harden went full Santa Claus and provided presents for families who could use an assist.

The NBA superstar partnered with Target and Karen Civil on Monday, letting 70 kids run wild in a Pearland, Texas store with loaded up gift cards for a personal shopping spree!

We're told each card had a couple hundred bucks on it, and the best part ... the kids had no idea they were in for this treat.

Donald and Melania Trump took a top secret sleigh ride overnight to Iraq to surprise the troops ... and wish them a Merry Christmas.

The 2 flew out of Washington late on Christmas and traveled overnight to the Al Asad Air Base west of Baghdad ... marking the President's first trip to see U.S. troops in a combat zone since his presidency began.

Trump's Press Secretary, Sarah Sanders, says POTUS and the First Lady are meeting with the troops and senior military leadership to thank them for "their service, their success, and their sacrifice."

The trip was reportedly kept under wraps for security reasons, and comes during tough times for the Prez in D.C. ... 5 days into the partial government shutdown.

There's also a NY Times report alleging Trump received his infamous bone spurs diagnosis to help avoid the Vietnam War draft from a foot doctor as a "favor" to his father, Fred Trump.

According to the report ... the daughters of the podiatrist claim their dad -- who rented his office from Fred -- performed the favor to get in good with his landlord.

Mark Wahlberg's beach bod is the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.

The "Instant Family" star is enjoying the holidays with his family in Barbados at the Sandy Lane Hotel, and hit the Caribbean sand Wednesday for some Boxing Day fun in the sun and a cool dip in the sea.

Mark's muscles are already an eye-catcher, but even more so when matched with his colorful trunks and cross necklace bling.

Drake's son has some creative talent, and the proud papa wants the world to see.

Drake posted this pic of his son Adonis' handiwork ... an abstract in blue, green, yellow and red paint with some telltale handprints!!!

The one-year-old's papa captioned the pic, "Adonis > Picasso don't @ me."

Drake became a first-time dad last year, confirming during the Summer he had a son on his album, "Scorpion" ... although pretty much everyone knew by then anyway.

Corinne Olympios spent Xmas day enjoying the Miami Beach sun with her boyfriend.

The former "Bachelor" and "Bachelor in Paradise" contestant was hanging with Jon Yunger. She's been seeing him since May.

This pool encounter turned out a lot better than a previous outing last year, when Corinne accused DeMario Jackson of sexually assaulting her on the set of "Bachelor in Paradise." She claimed she was super drunk and did not give consent to the sexual contact. The allegation brought filming of "BIP" to a halt.

An investigation -- which included video of the encounter -- concluded Corrine was a willing participant and there was no sexual assault. Filming resumed, but Corrine and DeMario were no longer on the show.
