Jennifer Lopez will not be hitting the road this summer after all -- as the singer is canceling her planned tour outright, even before it starts ... TMZ has learned.

A rep for Live Nation tells us Jen's "THIS IS ME...LIVE" tour -- which was supposed to get underway in June and hit a bunch of North American venues through August -- is getting completely scrapped.

The reason ... we're told, J Lo is "taking time off to be with her children, family and close friends." Jen herself also addressed the cancelation, hopping on her site OntheJLo to say, ... "I am completely heartsick and devastated about letting you down. Please know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t feel that it was absolutely necessary."

Robert De Niro's latest round of Trump-bashing has cost him a new accolade -- 'cause an org says they're taking back what they planned to give him ... and they're citing his politics.

The actor was all set to receive an award next week in D.C. from the National Association of Broadcasters -- namely, the NAB Leadership Foundation's Service to America Award ... and it seems Bob's appearance in NYC this week pre-Trump conviction is the key issue here.

They say, "This event is proudly bipartisan, uniting those from across the political spectrum to celebrate the impactful work of local broadcasters and our partners."

A Ukrainian model says she's gonna sue the Cannes Film Festival -- threatening to file a lawsuit over her now-viral physical encounter with a security guard ... yep, that same one.

Sawa Pontyjska told BBC News she's all ready to go with a legal complaint against the organizers of the film festival ... claiming she was assaulted by a female security guard while attending the "Marcello Mio" premiere -- something that was caught on camera.

Footage of the face-off went viral during the event, especially after the same security guard got into an argument with Kelly Rowland earlier in the day.

Chris Evans is clearing the air after a picture of him signing what some claimed to be a bomb went viral -- which is good, considering everything going on with Israel-Gaza.

Captain America shut down social media speculation that he was apparently signing an Israeli bomb for use in Gaza -- taking to an IG Story Thursday to clarify those claims were BS ... adding the photo was actually taken during a USO tour back in Dec 2016.

Chris says he participated in the trip alongside a group of actors, athletes and musicians to express gratitude to U.S. service members ...  and that what he signed was commemorative.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds turned their bestie Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour into quite the date night ... packing on the PDA during the singer's latest show.

The A-list couple stopped by Madrid's Santiago Bernabéu Stadium Thursday to watch their close pal's concert for the second night in a row -- and they were in the mood to smooch.

RR and BL -- who were once again joined by their children James, Inez and Betty -- made the most of their night out ... as fans caught Blake and Ryan sharing a kiss while they were out in the crowd when they had a moment to themselves.

Will Smith hit the L.A. premiere of his new movie with his wife Jada Pinkett Smith ... making their first public appearance in months since their separation bombshell dropped.

Check out the pics -- the actor rocked the "Bad Boys: Ride or Die" red carpet at TCL Chinese Theatre Thursday with Jada, their kids Jaden and Willow, and his son Trey from his previous marriage to Sheree Zampino.

The couple looked stylish as they posed in front of cams ... putting on a united front, something we haven't seen since JPS spilled in October about their secret 7-year separation.

William H. Macy's taking a strong stance against violence -- in movies and television, that is ... claiming it's negatively impacting the entire world, and being pretty dang earnest too.

The actor discussed his feelings about violent cinema during his appearance on fellow actor Brett Goldstein's "Films To Be Buried With" podcast ... saying he thinks the senseless violence in film cheapens each death and downplays human life in general.

Macy says, "I swear to God, you kill one person, there's nothing more dramatic than that. You kill 18 people, it's just porn. The only thing you can do to make that more dramatic is kill 18 more."

Brad Pitt's daughter, Shiloh, apparently wants nothing to do with him -- or at the very least, nothing to do with his last name ... 'cause she's dropping his surname officially.

Shiloh Jolie-Pitt -- who just turned 18 a few days ago on May 27 -- filed paperwork requesting a legal name change ... specifically, dropping the "Pitt" from her last name and making her new name simply "Shiloh Jolie."

Mind you ... this doc was literally filed on Monday, which was on Memorial Day ... and also happens to be her 18th birthday. So, it seems this was one of the first things she wanted to do as an adult.

Marvel chief Kevin Feige promised a "crude and rude" popcorn bucket for "Deadpool & Wolverine" ... and, boy, did they deliver.

Ryan Reynolds revealed the new buckets on X Thursday, posting a suggestive video of a hand caressing the item ... which is shaped like Wolverine's head with its mouth wide open.

At one point, butter dribbled down the face of the popcorn bucket ... which may be too suggestive to even spell out.

Natalie Portman and Paul Mescal are not romantic despite their sighting across the pond earlier this week that sparked speculation they may be dating ... TMZ has confirmed.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us the Oscar-winning actress and the Irish star are just pals -- and have been for a long time now -- even though they were looking pretty damn friendly this week in North London.

While we're told they're not romantically involved, Natalie and Paul have clearly struck up quite the friendship ... in fact, our sources say they've known each other for a while.

Michael Jackson's nephew Jaafar's jumping right into a thriller night ... getting dead-dolled up just like Uncle Mike for a recreation of the "Thriller" music video.

New photos from the set taken earlier this week show Jaafar looking just like Michael -- a common sight during filming that still doesn't get old -- clad in the iconic red leather get-up.

But, fans will probably focus more on his face ... 'cause the makeup's a dead ringer for Michael's in the 1983 music vid -- emphasis on "dead!!!"

Jennifer Lopez may know what "orange drink" is, but no one else does ... so, the singer had to finally explain it to the world ... capping off a viral trend about her old bodega order.

J Lo set the record straight in a new interview with Harper's Bazaar, in which she confessed she doesn't have a brand name for the now-viral drink -- which she mysteriously referenced a full year ago in a Vogue interview -- but she described it in extensive detail.

Jen says ... "It’s just a plain orange drink. It came in a little plastic container with a little bit of aluminum foil over it. And it wasn’t called anything except orange drink or grape drink or whatever. There was an orange, a grape, and a fruit punch."

Nicole Kidman getting hot and heavy in the sack with Zac Efron is not something you hear every day... but that's exactly what happens in their new film and we have a sneak peek at some of their sexy scenes.

Check it out ... On Wednesday, Netflix dropped a trailer for the movie, "A Family Affair," ahead of the June 28 premiere – and the two A-list actors can't keep their hands – or bodies – off each other.

In the 2-minute clip, Kidman and Efron are seen tangled up half-naked on a bed before they intensely make out against a wall.

American actor Max Thieriot was just a teen when he played Seth Plummer -- the teenager attempting to exile his new caretaker after losing his dad -- in the 2005  family comedy film "The Pacifier."

Max shared the big screen with Brittany Snow as the popular, pretty teenager who looks after her 4 younger siblings, Zoe Plummer, Vin Diesel the FBI agent now looking after the kids, Shane, and Lauren Graham as the caring principal who falls in love with Shane, Claire.

Just one year prior, Max made his acting debut, co-starring in the action film "Catch That Kid" with Kristen Stewart.

Kim Kardashian's making waves in Hollywood -- 'cause she's on Variety's latest "Actors on Actors" series, which also features Jon Hamm ... who once took a nasty shot at her.

The reality star has been paired up with Oscar-nominated actress Chloë Sevigny for the show -- which highlights the who's-who of the acting biz ... and interestingly, Jon is on the lineup as well ... albeit, talking to a different actor, Kristen Wiig.

Still, his shared presence on 'Actors on Actors' with Kim has many remembering him talking s*** about her way back in the 2010s ... when he labeled her stupid, and a "f***ing idiot."

Jerry Seinfeld's calling for the grand return of dominant masculinity -- even though, he ironically acknowledges he's not exactly the poster boy for that trait himself.

On the "Honestly with Bari Weiss" podcast, Jerry admitted his comedy career's taken him on quite a childish journey instead of his desire to embody traditional masculinity. Still, he's not backing down on his ideas about what it means to be a "real man."

JS gave examples ... reminiscing about the icons of masculinity who wowed him during his childhood -- names like John F. Kennedy, Muhammad Ali, Sean Connery, and Howard Cosell, guys who grew up admiring and aspiring to be like -- all of which he says are gone.
