Olivia Culpo Bikini Photo Shoot ... In 115 Degrees!!!

Don't think bikini models are tough? Try striking poses all day long in a 115 degree desert ... like Olivia Culpo!!!

The former Miss Universe set up shop in Palm Springs on Sunday for a photo shoot with Vital Proteins ... where she had to pretend she wasn't bothered by the scorching heat!!

Don't worry, Olivia had umbrella holders and people with water bottles waiting on the set to spray her down any time she overheated.

The good news? She pulled it off ... the photos are straight fire!!!

It's the first time we've seen Olivia back in the U.S. since her vacation with boyfriend Danny Amendola.

Seems he didn't make the trip to Cali -- he's battling the heat in Texas instead.

Mayra Veronica Hot And In A Sticky Situation

The 4th of July might be over, but Mayra Veronica is not ready to ditch the stars and stripes, although she might want to change her top.

As several parts of 'Merica undergo a heat wave, Mayra found a way to cool off after a bike ride on the Santa Monica Pier in SoCal, where temperatures over the weekend are predicted to reach triple digits.

Mayra got a little messy with her ice cream, but she still did the American flag justice, especially when she biked away. Popsicles ... not the only thing poppin' this summer.

Joseph Baena Sparks Fireworks w/ Smokin' Hot GF!!

Joseph Baena celebrated the Fourth of July with a little red, white and blue ... and a tall drink of a blonde bombshell.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's son hit the beach Wednesday in L.A. with some friends and his smokeshow of a GF ... model Savannah Wix. They took a dip in the ocean, laid on the sand and soaked up some rays. Joseph and Savannah have been dating for at least a year. They seem to be pretty crazy about each other ... the proof's on his Instagram. He shows her off in a bunch of his posts, and ya can't blame the kid.

And while Joseph was in the ocean, Arnold was shaming us all ... hitting up a nearby Gold's Gym with Hugh Jackman. Arnold continues to be the picture of health. Just 3 months ago, he underwent emergency open-heart surgery for a catheter valve replacement.

Get it, Arnold ... and Joseph!!

David Grutman Selling Celebs' Fave Miami Hot Spot (Kylie & Bella Not Included)

David Grutman didn't invent the party boat scene, but he damn sure perfected it with the help of Kylie Jenner and Bella Hadid -- and now he's unloading their favorite floating playground.

We're told Miami nightclub and restaurant mogul Grutman is selling his 55' VanDutch boat, dubbed The GROOT, for $875k. The 2015 model is stunning and clearly built for ballers -- just ask Rob Gronkowski, Travis Scott and Hailey Baldwin.

It'll be the end of an era for Grutman -- for the last 3 years The GROOT's hosted all sorts of wild parties in the waters around South Beach.

Don't cry him a river just yet. We're told he's about to make a sick upgrade -- which means Calvin Harris, Michael Bay, Scottie Pippen and Ashley Graham will still have a hot spot to hit in MIA.

'WAGS' Star Nicole Williams Wet Hot American Summer

Nicole Williams' idea of patriotic is a star-spangled bandana and a white bikini to match the giant waves that splashed against her awesome butt as she frolicked in the surf.

Williams hit the sand and water in Santa Monica in her own creation. She owns the bathing suit line Nia Lynn and, with a bod and legs like hers, she doesn't need models to show off her collection.

Nicole -- who is married to former football player Larry English -- is about 5'9" and, from the looks of it, she was fighting off at least 3-foot waves with no sweat.

You gotta watch the video ... Samantha's reaction to Saquon's nude pics in ESPN's Body Issue is real, and she's legit impressed!!!

"I do think that you're kind of limiting yourself with a body like that if you don't model," Hoopes says about the 21-year-old NY Giants running back.

"You know, 'cause we all work out to look like that and so if you've already got it, you might as well flaunt it. Right?!"

Samantha knows a little something about the modeling game ... she's posed for Guess, Levi's and has become a fan favorite in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

There's more ... the 27-year-old blonde also weighs in on Gisele's recent comments about it being tougher for models to make it big these days thanks to social media.

Hoopes explains why she believes Gisele has a solid point.

Jeremy Meeks & Chloe Green Parenting Goes South (of France)

Jeremy Meeks and Chloe Green called in some reinforcements for their new baby, jetting off to the French Riviera for a group date night to kick off the week.

The new parents were hanging with friends Monday night in Monaco in what appears to be their first time out together solo since their son, Jayden, was born last month. Among the crew ... Lewis Hamilton and Rita Ora, as well as English reality TV star Vas J Morgan.

Chloe and Jeremy live in the U.K., so getting together with their compadres in a neighboring country probably wasn't all that difficult. She is the heiress to the Topshop fortune after all, and Jeremy doesn't seem to mind international travel on a moment's notice either.

Mind you, the "Hot Felon" was just in L.A. picking up his 9-year-old son from his previous marriage to Melissa Meeks after striking a new custody agreement in their divorce. He was spotted with Jeremy Jr. just this past Thursday at a local Target.

Parenting and partying from sea to shining sea ... all in a week's work.

Melyssa Ford Fractures Skull in Nasty Car Accident ... Claudia Jordan Posts Pic

Hip-hop video vixen and reality TV star Melyssa Ford was badly injured in a car accident this week -- and her good friend, Claudia Jordan, posted a pic from the scene.

The 'RHOA' star shared a photo Saturday of Melyssa lying on the ground surrounded by bystanders after a horrific car wreck she was involved in Thursday. Melyssa was travelling on an L.A. freeway when an 18-wheeler clipped her Jeep, flipping her multiple times.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Claudia says Melyssa suffered a huge gash on her head and brain bleeding -- adding Melyssa doesn't remember what happened and pleading with witnesses to come forward.

Another friend of Melyssa's, Maryam Iman, notes Melyssa suffered a skull fracture and a concussion on top of the brain bleeding. Maryam goes on to say that Melyssa's gash was 10 inches, and had to be surgically sealed with staples and stitches. Both women say Melyssa is lucky to be alive.

The former "Blood, Sweat & Heels" star -- who had a bottle broken on her head in 2014 -- is said to be healing in a hospital under intensive care and constant surveillance.

Get well soon.

Gigi Hadid & Emily Ratajkowski Together in Greece ... That's Already a Yacht of Hotties

Gigi Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski certainly pack a punch while on vacation -- ya know, the old one, two ... as in one and two-piece bathing suits. Whew!

The two models were spotted among a bunch of other babes soaking up some sun on a yacht Sunday near Mykonos Island, Greece. Emily appeared a bit less shy at the front of the boat with her poses. Booty and middle finger out, her 2-piece on full display ... well done.

Gigi, meanwhile, was changing in the back -- slightly shaded, but still smokin'.

Unclear who offers the better view here ... it's all Greek to us.

Victoria's Secret Model Stop Bugging Me!!!

A Victoria's Secret model clearly didn't heed the warning, "Don't let the bedbugs bite," and now she says it's derailed her career and her life.

Sabrina Jales St. Pierre is suing the Palm Desert Embassy Suites hotel, claiming she was viciously attacked by the creepy creatures back in 2016.

The bites covered much of her body, and even worse didn't heal very quickly. She claims the bites left her not only physically scarred but emotionally as well ... she says she suffered embarrassment and psychological trauma. She says she continues to have nightmares.

According to the lawsuit, she blames the hotel for not properly fumigating.

Bella Hadid No, I Didn't Bang Drake ... Not Me on 'Scorpion'

Bella Hadid isn't the chick Drake raps about hooking up with on his new album ... the two are close friends, and that's it.

Drizzy fans jumped all over the track "Finesse" Friday, trying to figure out the identity of the woman he's rapping about in the following verses:

"Should I do New York? I can't decide. Fashion week is more your thing than mine."

"You and your sister. Too hot to handle."

Bella quickly became suspect #1 ... and the Internet took off with that as fact. However, Bella's speaking up and saying flat-out the chick ain't her.

Hadid just replied to some trolls, saying, "Not me!!! that's disrespectful. WHY CANT PPL BE FRIENDS W/o all the insinuation."

One suspect ruled out ... and a ton more to go.

Kendall Jenner Shacking Up With Ben Simmons ... In $25k/Mo. Rental

Kendall Jenner and Ben Simmons haven't confirmed they're an item yet, but they're already eating from the same fridge, apparently.

Sources tell us the two have been holing up in a $25k/month rental in L.A. It's unclear whose name is on the lease, but they've both been spotted coming in and out of the ultra modern crib frequently, and we're told the lease term is for several months.

The 5 bedroom, 6 bath home has a pool and is centrally located near the Grove and trendy Fairfax area, which explains why they've been spotted around town so much.

Kendall recently purchased Charlie Sheen's old Beverly Hills home, but she's putting some of her own touches on the crib, so this could be her crash pad in the meantime.

The listing was held by Shay Gozlan and Rudy Malka of Living the Dream properties.
