Bianca Censori threw us a curveball this Halloween ... ditching her usual barely-there look for a surprise cover-up, proving even she can play it a little coy when she wants to.

The Aussie model hit the club in Harajuku, Japan, with her man, Kanye West, on Thursday, rocking a baby-blue ensemble -- and even though it was more fabric than we’re used to seeing from her, she still brought the heat with an insanely skintight fit.

Bianca paired her figure-hugging turtleneck with tiny nude shorts, putting those legs on full display. While some might still call it risqué, for Bianca, this was an unexpectedly demure look ... and she seemed to be really getting into it!

Halloween 2024 has come and gone ... and, some celebs saved their best outfits for the holiday -- pulling out all the stops as October came to a close.

Sports star Livvy Dunne saved the day in her Wonder Woman outfit ... flashing her powerful muscles while curled up on the couch. Charli D'Amelio went for grace over brawn, turning heads in her "Black Swan"-inspired outfit, And, pop star Maluma and his fam dressed as a family of cowboys.

Ed Sheeran wasn't monkeying around in his interpretation of an AI photo blending him and a primate ... hopping on a table and smiling while dressed in a big chimp costume.

Camila Cabello's night nearly took a turn when she and her friend both hit the ground hard outside of the Chateau Marmont Halloween party ... though, thankfully there was no gory horror movie injury to worry about.

We caught up with the singer-songwriter outside the glitzy Chateau Marmont Halloween party in L.A. Thursday night ... and, before we could even ask a question, her friend took a pretty nasty spill on the pavement.

Check out the clip ... CC's friend falls over and the pop star can't help but start to laugh before she goes over to pick her buddy up -- only to hit the ground as well.

Fat Joe is adding his 2 cents to the brewing conversation that today's hip hop journalists are big trash, spurned over backlash from Kendrick Lamar giving his first "Not Like Us" interview to SZA!!!

The Bronx rap legend sat down for a new interview to discuss the fleeting practice of artists having journalists ask them fair questions, in exchange, to be able to alter the narrative on their own platforms. Fat Joe says the coverage of Tupac Shakur and Biggie's beef led to their demise!!!

"I also believe that the old guard of hip-hop journalists created a lot of conflict and might even have blood on their hands," Joe explained.

Tyler, The Creator cursed out Taylor Swift's Swifties for bringing up his old lyrics in hopes of getting him canceled ... he's doubling down on his wildest words!!!

On Halloween, Tyler surprised his Boston fans with a “Chromakopia” album concert to promote his latest project after he defiantly released it Monday -- against music industry standards.

The release shot Tyler to the top of the Global Spotify Artist chart for 3 consecutive days ... knocking Taylor of that perch, and likely sparking the ire of Swifties everywhere.

But, he fired back defiantly ... addressing Taylor's army while on top of the Converse Flagship Store -- "I got Swifties all mad at me with their racist ass ... Bitch, go listen to 'Tron Cat' -- I don't give a f***!!!"

A former Playboy model claims she was at a Diddy "Freak-Off" with a soundtrack ... music from one Jennifer Lopez.

Rachel Kennedy says it all went down in Japan in 2000, when she and 2 friends met Diddy at a topless club and he invited them back to his hotel suite.

Kennedy, who appeared on the Daily Mail's "The Trial of Diddy" podcast, says she thought she was going to a party -- but when she arrived the only person in the room was Diddy in a bathrobe.

It ain't the Christmas season 'til Mariah Carey declares, "It's Time," and she's done just that -- ushering in the festive season in her true diva style.

Just after the clock chimed midnight on Nov 1, the Queen of Christmas went from Morticia Addams, dancing a dark tango with Gomez in a shadowy mansion, to full holiday mode in a festive twist that only Mariah could pull off.

Mariah's Halloween-to-Christmas magic hits when she throws a knife at Gomez, which he dodges, and boom ... she's twirling in a festive red dress as the spooky mansion melts into holiday cheer -- and, of course, her holiday banger, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" is playing.

Heidi Klum's Halloween bash is always a wild event -- but this year it was totally out of this world!

The supermodel and her hubby, Tom Kaulitz, dressed up as Mr. and Mrs. E.T. -- the extra-terrestrial character from Steven Spielberg's 1982 classic alien film -- for her annual spookfest, which was held at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC.

Heidi brought E.T. to new heights, recreating the glowing fingertip of the movie's strange but kind visitor from a faraway galaxy. She wore a mechanical E.T. costume head with a portable mouth and eyes, which were controlled remotely by Heidi's handlers.

Kamala Harris trotted out another major celebrity endorsement on Thursday -- and this time it was Jennifer Lopez, who blasted Donald Trump for throwing what many perceived as a racist rally at Madison Square Garden.

The Democratic presidential nominee and VP held her own rally in Nevada on Thursday evening -- and J Lo made her much-anticipated appearance onstage with Kamala, and the two shared a big hug in front of a large crowd.

Stepping up to the mic at a podium with the VP seal, Jennifer gave an emotional speech slamming Trump for his MSG event, where the Republican presidential nominee allowed comedian Tony Hinchcliffe to trash Puerto Rico.

Shawn Mendes says he's still figuring out his sexuality, but he does have one thing figured out ... he looks damn good without a shirt.

The singer-songwriter ditched his shirt again Thursday while checking out his Halloween decorations at his home in Los Angeles ... showing off his tattoos and his rock-hard abs.

We've seen Shawn more and more since he addressed years-long speculation about his sexuality earlier this week during a concert at the famous Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado ... and, he looks happy after getting a huge weight off his chest.

3:54 PM PT -- Young Thug could be home very soon ... he was just sentenced and may not have to serve any more time behind bars if he successfully completes 15 years of probation.

On Thursday afternoon, Judge Whitaker imposed the sentence, which amounts to 40 years in total.

It's a bit complicated, but here's the gist -- he was given time served for 5 of the years plus 15 years on probation.

There is also a backloaded 20-year prison sentence that could kick in after probation ... but he'll only have to serve that time behind bars if he doesn't successfully complete his probation term.

If he keeps his nose clean during probation, the judge said that part of the sentence would be commuted.

His lawyer Brian Steel also requested he still be allowed to associate with co-defendants, his brother Quantavious "Unfoonk" Grier and Sergio "Gunna" Kitchens, in order to continue his rap career.

The state had been recommending Thug serve at least 25 years in prison, but it appears the judge went in a very different direction.

Young Thug decided to enter a guilty plea in his YSL RICO case ... which will bring an end to his part in what has become the longest trial in Georgia history.

On Thursday -- Halloween '24 at that -- Thug switched his original plea he made in 2022 and pleaded guilty to his role in criminal street gang activity.

He also pleaded no contest to conspiracy to violate the RICO Act and leading a criminal street gang.

Snoop Dogg's diving into the holi-daze ... featuring prominently in the expanded "Snoop on the Stoop" collection so that fans can bring home their own version of the rap legend.

Check out the merchandise ... Snoop's woven into a Christmas sweater bearing the words "Merry Chrismizzle," waiting to be hung on the tree in a red convertible ornament, sitting atop a dog house on a mug, and overall just vibing for the holidays.

Beyoncé is getting backup from her father, Mathew Knowles, after Donald Trump ripped her for not singing at a Kamala Harris rally.

Trump roasted Queen Bey on Wednesday in Green Bay, Wisconsin ... telling his supporters both Beyoncé and Kamala Harris were met with boos at the VP's Houston rally after Bey didn't perform.

However, Beyoncé's dad, who was at the Houston event last Friday, begs to differ ... telling TMZ, "I can unequivocally say no one was booing. That's just a lie."

Lizzo crushed the Halloween game this year -- leveling up with several costumes such as a mighty mash-up of Edward Scissorhands and SZA, AKA "Edward SZA Hands."

The singer also painted her entire bod bright red and donned a voluptuous "hunny bunny" body suit corset. She topped off the look with a long blue wig.

She swiped this "Face Card" credit card costume on her social media ... A shoutout to Beyoncé's "Heated" from Bey's 2022 Renaissance album. The Yitty shapewear owner rounded out the costume with a black jumpsuit and held on tightly to some Chanel shopping bags.

12:47 PM PT -- The video of Megan Thee Stallion admitting to lying to Gayle King about having sex with Tory Lanez is new, but a source close to Tory's criminal shooting case tells TMZ ... Meg testified during the trial that she had a sexual relationship with Lanez.

10:32 AM PT -- Megan Thee Stallion's admission she lied to Gayle King about having sex with Tory Lanez is catching the attention of Tory's legal team.

Ceasar McDowell, CEO of Unite the People, the nonprofit law firm that reps Tory, tells TMZ ... "The fact that Megan lied about her sexual relationship with Tory obviously makes her an unreliable witness. If someone lies in front of millions of people, how can you trust what they say any other time?"
