FANGIRLING OUT

Rihanna and Natalie Portman are the duo we didn't know we needed ... until now, that is -- 'cause they came together in the most epic of ways, with mutual adoration for the other.

Check out this clip that's making the rounds ... you see RiRI fangirling hard after running into Natalie in Paris -- where she tells her she's the "hottest bitch in Hollywood." NP ain't shy about dishing out the compliments either ... 'cause she's clearly a fan of Rihanna as well.

Rihanna shamelessly makes it crystal clear she's well acquainted with ALL of Natalie's acting resume ... in particular, commending her abilities for pulling off the perfect innocent impression. Yeah, she's not kidding about being a fan -- you know she's seen her work.

Natalie, for her part, is pretty taken aback that RiRi is star-struck ... saying she may faint by all the love being poured on her. Like we said, she's certainly familiar with Rihanna too.

It's pretty funny to watch -- usually, Rihanna has a cool, calm, collected demeanor about herself in just about everything she does ... but here, she's like a kid in a candy store!

The exchange doesn't end there ... Rihanna asks someone to take a snap of them, to which they happily obliged. The two mega stars posed for a pic ... flashing big smiles.

Yeah, she's probably gonna frame that one ... maybe ditto for Natalie.

Rihanna Fanática de Natalie Portman 'La más hot de Hollywood'

Modo Fan con Natalie

Rihanna y Natalie Portman son el dúo que no sabíamos que necesitábamos hasta ahora. Ambas se reunieron, en la más épica de las formas, con una adoración mutua por la otra.

Echa un vistazo a este clip que está circulando por todas partes. En él se ve a Rihanna en modo súper fan después de encontrarse con Natalie en París, donde ella la llama la "bitch más caliente de Hollywood". Natalie Portman tampoco fue tímida a la hora de repartir cumplidos, porque es claramente una fan de Rihanna también.

Rihanna deja muy claro que conoce muy bien todo el currículum de Natalie, elogiando particularmente sus habilidades para lograr la perfecta impresión de inocencia. Sí, no está bromeando sobre ser una fan, es fácil darse cuenta que ha visto su trabajo.

Natalie, por su parte, le dice que podría desmayarse por todo el amor que vierten sobre ella. Como hemos dicho, también está ciertamente familiarizada con Rihanna.

Es bastante divertido de ver. Por lo general, Rihanna tiene una actitud fría, tranquila y serena en casi todo lo que hace, pero aquí es como una niña en una tienda de dulces.

El intercambio no termina ahí, Rihanna le pide a alguien que les tome una foto, a lo que ellas acceden encantadas. Las dos mega estrellas posaron juntas muy sonrientes.

Sí, probablemente Rihanna va a enmarcar esta foto, tal vez lo mismo para Natalie.

Oliver Stone Apologizes To Ryan Gosling ... Sorry For The 'Barbie' Barb

Oliver Stone has issued an apology to Ryan Gosling for blasting the actor for playing the role of Ken in the wildly popular "Barbie" film, while calling his own comments ignorant.

The legendary director posted a statement Monday on X, praising the movie for its "originality" and "themes" after he accused Gosling of accepting the role of Barbie’s boyfriend solely for monetary reasons in a recently resurfaced 2023 interview.

In his post on X, Stone wrote that he “was able to see 'Barbie' in a theater back in July and appreciated the film for its originality and its themes.” He added, “I found the filmmakers’ approach certainly different than what I expected. I apologize for speaking ignorantly.”

Stone also gave kudos to "Barbie" director Greta Gerwig, saying her 2017 flick, "Ladybird," was one of his favorites that year. As you know, Gerwig's "Barbie" was the highest-grossing film of 2023, raking in more than $1.4 billion at the box office while costarring Margot Robbie as Barbie alongside Gosling's Ken.

Stone made his controversial statements about Gosling during a June 2023 interview with City A.M. -- just weeks before Barbie was to be released in theaters.

Stone told a reporter Gosling was "wasting his time if he's doing that s*** for money," referring to "Barbie."

The director also slammed Gosling for being "a part of this infantilization of Hollywood." Stone added, "Now it’s all fantasy, fantasy, fantasy, including all the war pictures: fantasy, fantasy."

Lil en "Coyote Ugly" ¿La recuerdas?

La actriz estadounidense Maria Bello tenía poco más de 30 años cuando interpretó a Lil, la rubia y ardiente dueña del bar "Coyotes", en la película "Coyote Ugly" en el año 2000.

Maria compartió la gran pantalla con Piper Perabo en el papel de Violet Sanford, aspirante a músico, John Goodman como Bill, el padre de Violet, Adam Garcia como el Sr. O'Donald, interés amoroso de Violet y, por supuesto, LeAnn Rimes y Tyra Banks son otras de las notables barwoman de la película.

Justo un año antes del estreno de "Coyote Ugly", Bello protagonizó "Payback" con Mel Gibson, y en 2004 coprotagonizó con Johnny Depp "Secret Window".

Adivina qué aspecto tiene ahora.

Lil In 'Coyote Ugly' 'Memba Her?!

American actress Maria Bello was in her early 30's when she played Lil -- the rough around the edges, hot blonde bar owner who managed the 'Coyotes' -- in the boot-stomping bar film "Coyote Ugly" back in 2000.

Maria shared the big screen with Piper Perabo as the aspiring musician, Violet Sanford, John Goodman as Violet's father, Bill, Adam Garcia as Violet's love interest, Mr. O'Donald ... and of course LeAnn Rimes and Tyra Banks are other notable bar babes in the movie.

Just one year prior to "Coyote Ugly's" release, Bello starred in "Payback" with Mel Gibson, and in 2004 she co-starred with Johnny Depp in "Secret Window".

Guess what she looks like now!

LOVE LETTER TO OAKLAND
TMZ.com

Too Short is adding filmmaking to his resume ... and he's already scored some Hollywood heavy hitters for his movie, "Freaky Tales," which recently premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.

He spoke to us Monday on "TMZ Live," about the "anthology horror-movie-thriller-comedy" ... which depicts 4 interconnected stories during 1987 Oakland, and heavily features his music.

TAKING OVER SUNDANCE

The film serves as a "love letter to Oakland," and also mirrors Short's experience growing up there in the eighties -- and he tells us his emotional attachment to the project is even more significant because he's an executive producer and narrator for it.

He acknowledges it also means a lot to the others involved -- most noticeably its A-list cast that includes Tom Hanks, Pedro Pascal, Normani, and the late Angus Cloud. It's also directed by "Capt. Marvel" writers/directors Ryan Fleck and Anna Boden -- which is major.

After the movie's debut, Short took advantage of his time in Park City, UT ... deciding to hit the slopes for his first time.

HITTING THE SLOPES

He tells us he didn't need much convincing to give it a whirl, because he's always been adventurous and agile, even at 57.

While he mostly got the hang of it, things went downhill fast, literally, when he ended up on a mountain he couldn't navigate as a beginner -- forcing his ski instructor to rescue him.

Actor de "Mi Pobre Angelito" está hospitalizado y aplazan su juicio Por violencia doméstica

El juicio por violencia doméstica por el que está pasando el actor de "Mi Pobre Angelito" —Devin Ratray— se ha retrasado después de que sus abogados le informaron al juez que fue hospitalizado "en estado crítico".

Un miembro de la familia le dice a TMZ que Devin —más conocido por su papel de Buzz McCallister— ha sido dado de alta del hospital de Nueva York y está de vuelta en casa descansando por prescripción médica.

No se sabe la razón por la cual el hombre de 45 años terminó en el hospital, o incluso cuando fue que pasó, pero en los registros judiciales se nota que estaba fuera del estado cuando su emergencia médica fue notificada.

La pesadilla médica del actor provocó un aplazamiento en su caso judicial. La selección del jurado se fijó para comenzar el lunes en un tribunal de Oklahoma, pero ahora, todo el asunto ha sido reajustado para antes del juicio el próximo mes, y todo causa de la hospitalización.

Devin fue detenido tras las acusaciones de que golpeó a su ex novia durante un altercado borracho en diciembre de 2021, con la ex diciendole a la policía que la empujó, le dio un puñetazo en la cara, y presionó sus manos contra la garganta y la boca.

TMZ obtuvo la declaración jurada de causa probable, cuando Lisa le dijo a las autoridades Devin dijo: "Así es como se muere".

Fue fichado por delito grave asalto doméstico y agresión por estrangulamiento, así como delito menor asalto doméstico. Más tarde fue puesto en libertad bajo fianza de 25.000 dólares.

Devin tuvo su primera comparecencia ante el tribunal en febrero de 2022, entrando en una declaración de no culpabilidad, pero las cosas se han movido lentamente desde entonces.

'HOME ALONE' STAR DEVIN RATRAY HOSPITALIZED ... DV Trial Delayed!!

"Home Alone" star Devin Ratray's domestic violence trial has been delayed ... after his lawyers informed the judge he was hospitalized "in critical condition."

A family member tells TMZ ... Devin -- best known for his role as Buzz McCallister -- has now been released from the NYC hospital and is back home resting on doctor's orders.

No word as to what landed the 47-year-old in the hospital in the first place, or even when -- but court records do note he was out of state when his medical emergency went down.

The actor's medical nightmare triggered a hold-up in his DV case as jury selection was set to begin Monday in an Oklahoma courtroom ... but now, the whole thing's been reset for pretrial next month, all 'cause of the hospitalization.

A rundown of his legal woes ... Devin was arrested following accusations he beat up his ex-GF during a drunk altercation in December 2021 ... with the ex-GF telling cops he pushed her, punched her in the face, and pressed his hands against her throat and mouth.

TMZ obtained the probable cause affidavit at the time ... in which Lisa told authorities Devin said, "This is how you die."

He was booked for felony domestic assault and battery by strangulation, as well as misdemeanor domestic assault and battery. He was later released on $25K bond.

Devin had his first court appearance in February 2022, entering a not-guilty plea ... but things have moved slowly since then.

Norman Jewison -- the director known for 'Jesus Christ Superstar' and other hits -- has died.

Other movies he directed throughout his career ... 'Fiddler on the Roof,' 'The Cincinnati Kid,' 'Rollerball,' 'And Justice for All,' 'Best Friends,' 'F.I.S.T.,' 'A Soldier's Story,' 'Agnes of God,' 'In Country,' 'Only You,' 'Dinner with Friends' ... and many more.

Jamie Dornan aparentemente pensó que estaba teniendo un ataque al corazón el año pasado luego de experimentar síntomas preocupantes, sin embargo, fue una falsa alarma.

El susto fue revelado a través de un amigo suyo -el locutor escocés Gordon Smart- durante una aparición en la BBC en "The Good, The Bad and The Unexpected", donde contó esta historia que involucra a Jamie y algunos otros amigos con los que visitaron Portugal el año pasado.

Después de una noche de fiesta, Smart dice que algunos en su grupo comenzaron a sentirse muy enfermos al día siguiente, y terminaron enviando a con Gordon al hospital. Ya que sentía un hormigueo en la mano y en el brazo, Smart pensó que estaba teniendo un ataque al corazón, pero más tarde le dijeron que había sido infectado por una oruga local.

En concreto, Smart dice que le dijeron que debía haber entrado en contacto con orugas de la procesionaria del pino, las cuales tienen pelos venenosos por todo el cuerpo y que pueden infectar a los seres humanos. No suelen ser mortales para las personas, pero pueden matar a los animales.

De todos modos, dice que cuando regresó al hotel donde se alojaba Jamie, vio que Jamie también estaba conectado a un equipo médico y notó que había sufrido los mismos síntomas.

Con el tiempo, los síntomas de ambos se aclararon y en términos de cómo podrían haber entrado en contacto con estos pequeños bichos, Smart dice que parecen estar en todos los campos de golf, que es donde los chicos estaban vagando justo antes de caer enfermos.

Jamie no se ha referido a la historia. El mundo es salvaje... tomen precauciones.

The Good, the Bad and the Unexpected/BBC

Jamie Dornan apparently thought he was having a heart attack and might die last year after he started experiencing tell-tale symptoms for a heart attack ... but he was just buggin' out.

The actor's health scare was revealed through a friend of his -- Scottish broadcaster Gordon Smart -- during an appearance on the BBC's 'The Good, The Bad and The Unexpected'  ... where he told this wild story about him, Jamie and some other pals hitting Portugal last year.

After a night out, Smart says some in their group started to feel really sick the next day -- with GS getting sent to the hospital ... as he felt tingling in his hand and arm. Smart thought he was having a heart attack ... but was later told he'd been infected by a local caterpillar.

Specifically, Smart says he was told he must've come into contact with pine processionary moth caterpillars -- which have poisonous hairs all over their bodies, and which can infect humans. They're not usually deadly for people -- but they can, in fact, kill animals.

Anyway, he says when he got back to the hotel where Jamie was staying -- he saw JD, too, was hooked up to medical equipment ... and noted he'd suffered from the same symptoms.

Eventually, both of their symptoms cleared up -- and in terms of how they might've come into contact with these little buggers ... Smart says they seem to be all over golf courses there, which is where the boys were roaming just before coming down with their illnesses.

Jamie hasn't addressed the story himself. It's a wild world out there ... take precautions, y'all.

CELEB DOG BREEDER STITCHED UP AFTER FRENCHIE ATTACK ... Lip Ripped Off Face!!

A celebrity dog breeder had his lip hanging on by a thread ... after a French bulldog viciously bit him in the face.

Ronnie Wright of Famous Owned Bullies tells TMZ ... he needed 11 stitches this week when an adult Frenchie at a client's house lunged at his face as he went to kiss it.

He didn't have much time to stop the gush of blood from his mouth ... telling us when he walked into the house to wash it off another Frenchie pounced onto his leg -- though he managed to kick it off.

Ronnie tells us when he looked in a mirror, his lip was hanging off his face and he was rushed straight to the ER.

Currently, he's still super swollen ... meaning it's hard for him to talk, eat, or sleep. He has been dealing with dogs his entire life and Frenchie's for 16 years and never had a single incident.

To rub salt in the wound ... he's gotta have reconstructive surgery when his stitches come out ... 'cause the bite ripped out a piece of his lip cartilage.

Ronnie, based in Carlsbad, San Diego, has built a successful career for himself ... entrusted by clients including Snoop Dogg, Wiz Khalifa, Jamie Foxx, Selena Gomez, and more -- so the attack undoubtedly comes as a shock.
