Hollywood Exes

Britney Spears seemed to have Justin Timberlake top of mind Tuesday ... as she seductively danced to a song featuring her ex-boyfriend.

In a video posted to Instagram, Brit was decked out in a skimpy outfit -- a see-through mini dress with underwear and heels -- while Timbaland's "Bounce" played loudly in the background. Justin, Dr. Dre and Missy Elliott were also credited on the 2007 track.

Brit wrote in the IG caption, "The nasty version," apparently referring to her sexy moves as the music was pumping.

Kristin Cavallari is trying to unload what was once her dream home, but that doesn't mean she's dunzo living alone or trying to move in with boyfriend Mark Estes.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Kristin and Mark are NOT in the cohabitating stage, despite much speculation their romance is heading to the next level. We're told Kristin and Mark's relationship is really strong, but they're not ready to live together full-time.

While many people assume Mark and his brother still live in Montana -- mainly because their TikTok name is the Montana Boyz -- ME actually has his own place in Nashville, where Kristin plans to spend some time while she's house hunting. We're told she'll also stay at her L.A. condo.

Holly Madison is facing some heat from Crystal Hefner's legal team ... they say the former Playboy model is causing "serious harm" to the late Playboy mogul's widow.

In a cease and desist letter, obtained by TMZ, Crystal's lawyer calls out Holly for her podcast interview with Hugh Hefner's son, Marston -- ripping her remarks on the episode as "malicious and intentionally misleading."

Holly, Marston and Bridget Marquardt chatted on the May 12 episode of the "Girls Next Level" podcast, and according to the letter ... they insinuated Crystal kept Hugh "doped up" during the final years of his life in order to take advantage of him financially.

Khloe Kardashian went out to grab a bite with her ex, Tristan Thompson this weekend -- without any kids around -- and while some might've thought the spark was back ... it ain't.

KK and Tristan were photographed walking out of Nobu Malibu Sunday -- where they were clearly dining together ... even though they appeared to stagger their exits, and ended up leaving in separate cars.

There were lots of other people with them, but none of their children -- which raised alarms among some who thought they were back together ... but we're told that's just not the case.

Ariana Grande's making sure fans know "the boy is mine" ... stepping out with Ethan Slater for a rare date night out.

The "Wicked" costars attended the 2024 Stanley Cup playoff game Saturday at the Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, FL, where they cheered on the Florida Panthers ... a team Ariana grew up watching as an FL native.

While Ariana and Ethan tend to keep a low profile -- he is still in the middle of a divorce -- the duo's been stepping out more together lately. Last week, Ariana went to Ethan's week-long residency at Cafe Carlyle in NYC.

Sam Asghari's status as Britney Spears' most recent ex-husband is not something he can bank on to keep him relevant on his new job -- instead, he's gonna have to shine solo for "The Traitors."

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... while he's shooting Peacock's hit competition series, Sam's pretty much got a gag order when it comes to Britney -- he's not allowed to say anything negative, or even positive, about her.

Our sources say it's clear Britney doesn't want a peep out of Sam about her, period.

Sam Asghari's professional life is going pretty well after divorcing Britney Spears ... as he's set to make his official foray into reality TV.

The actor and model was announced as part of the season 3 cast for Peacock's popular competition series, "The Traitors" ... and he'll be appearing alongside some reality TV greats -- including "Vanderpump Rules" star Tom Sandoval and "Selling Sunset" star Chrishell Stause.

Other notable participants include Zac Efron's brother Dylan, Bob the Drag Queen, 'RHONY' alum Dorinda Medley, wrestling star Nikki Garcia, Bachelor Nation's Gabby Windey and Wells Adams, "Big Brother" vets Britney Haynes and Danielle Reyes and "Survivor" stars Carolyn Wiger, Jeremy Collins and Rob Mariano.

Britney Spears has spent time reuniting with her nearest and dearest in recent years, and now you can add her ex-fiancé, and former co-conservator, Jason Trawick to that list ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Britney got together with Jason during her trip to Las Vegas last week with her brother Bryan. We're told she and her bro are still tight with Jason, and they reached out to him to say they were going to be in town and would love to catch up.

Our sources also tell us Jason now lives in Vegas so the meet-up totally made sense -- and they wound up hanging out together, on at least one occasion, at Resorts World Las Vegas.

Julie Bowen acknowledges she helped her "Modern Family" costar Sarah Hyland leave an abusive relationship in the past ... and also says she didn't even think twice about it.

The actress talked about Sarah's 2014 breakup on Monday's episode of "The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcast," and when it was pointed out to her that SH had shouted her out for helping her at the time, Julie made it seem like it was a no-brainer and NBD.

Julie explained her intervention was the obvious thing to do, just a case of "a responsible adult that happened to be around at the right time." She says she was sure others would have done the same.

Lenny Kravitz might be a well-known sex symbol ... but that’s kinda fading in light of this news -- namely, him being celibate for a whopping 9 years while on his spiritual journey.

The music icon says he's ditched casual flings for nearly a decade until he finds the right woman -- a move inspired by his dad, NBC news producer Sy Kravitz, cheating on his mom, Roxie Roker, a well-known actress famous for her starring role in "The Jeffersons."

Reflecting on the infidelity, Lenny told The Guardian his dad predicted he’d end up living the same lifestyle, and it turned out to be true. After his marriage to Lisa Bonet fell apart in 1991, Lenny acknowledged he began acting like a player.

12:55 PM PT -- We've now spoken to other witnesses at the party who claim Alexander "AE" Edwards was the instigator, as he ran up on stage and initiated physical contact with Travis Scott.

Travis Scott and Tyga's camps are leaving their mark on Cannes, courtesy of an all out melee inside an after-party ... and from the looks of things, a few ice packs will be needed.

TMZ Hip Hop got video showing multiple angles of the altercation, which also involved Cher's boyfriend Alexander "AE" Edwards and 808 Mafia producer Southside -- and it all went down at acclaimed promoter Richie Akiva's event.

Cassie has just spoken out about the horrific video of her then-boyfriend Diddy brutally beating her, and her words were clearly chosen carefully given the NDA she signed to settle her lawsuit.

Cassie posted on Instagram early Thursday ... "Thank you for all of the love and support from my family, friends, strangers, and those I have yet to meet. The outpouring of love has created a place for my younger self to settle and feel safe now, but this is only the beginning. Domestic Violence is THE issue. It broke me down to someone I never thought I would become."

She goes on ... "With a lot of hard work, I am better today, but I will always be recovering from my past. Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to take this matter seriously. My only ask is that EVERYONE open your heart to believing victims the first time. It takes a lot of heart to tell the truth out of a situation that you were powerless in."

Diddy's apology video for his brutal 2016 assault of ex-GF Cassie Ventura has blossomed a ton of new opinions and commentary ... from Bad Boy associates and beyond.

Kelly Price -- who recorded with Diddy and the late Notorious B.I.G. several times in the '90s -- didn't cast the disgraced mogul out completely ... offering up prayers of encouragement on social media, while commenting underneath his upload this weekend.

The gospel singer's benevolence while the Cassie video is still on top of people's minds didn't sit well with many though -- and the intense backlash forced Kelly to clarify herself in a 12-minute rebuttal, with her message being ... hate the actions, love the man in a nutshell.

Dean McDermott's firing off at trolls shocked at Tori Spelling's acceptance of his new girlfriend ... this despite seemingly obvious tension between the exes.

The actor jumped into the replies of a post featuring his new girlfriend, Lily Calo, to defend himself and his estranged wife after several fans said they couldn't believe Tori liked the post ... essentially showing her support.

In response to one comment which seemed to really upset him, Dean wrote, "It’s because she is a highly evolved and compassionate loving person, which is a lot more [than] I can say for the trolls commenting on this post."

Matt Prokop -- a former child actor who was the subject of a restraining order for allegedly abusing Sarah Hyland -- has been arrested in Texas, TMZ has learned.

Victoria PD Sergeant Dailey tells TMZ ... Prokop and his girlfriend were out together Saturday when she allegedly told someone Matt assaulted her. Police were called to the location, but say the two were gone when they arrived.

About an hour later, cops say they received a call about a disturbance at another spot in Victoria ... where they say they found Matt and his girlfriend.

1:13 PM PT -- A rep for InterContinental Hotels & Resorts tells TMZ ... "This hotel is no longer under IHG management, and we do not have any access to prior incident records or footage."

10:56 AM PT -- Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... there is no record cops can track down as it pertains to this 2016 incident at the InterContinental, so it doesn't appear to have been mentioned to cops in a police report, or otherwise reported to the authorities.

In terms of cops opening a case on this now, LAPD tells TMZ ... For cases before January 2020, it's a 3 year statute of limitations -- and after January 2020, it's 5 years. In other words, there's no chance cops will dive into this specific incident for potential criminal charges at this point, at least as far as the LAPD is concerned.

Diddy brutally beat up his ex-girlfriend Cassie at a hotel in L.A. 8 years ago -- something she detailed in her lawsuit ... and which we're now seeing for the first time on camera.
