Gal Gadot & Chris Pine Get New 'Wonder Woman' Costar ... Sweet Fanny Pack, Bro!!!

Chris Pine is back from the dead, or part of a ridiculous dream sequence, in the next 'Wonder Woman' flick ... based on pics from the set. Ummm ... spoiler alert?

Chris was spotted Wednesday in Virginia with costar Gal Gadot. We knew Chris was returning to his role of Steve Trevor, but since he died in the first one ... we don't how HOW he's coming back. There's a big clue, we think, in this pic. Two words: FANNY. PACK.

The sequel is set in 1984, so the stylish wardrobe piece makes sense.

Since the sequel fast forwards about 66 years, we're guessing science or time travel has to be involved for Steve to still be alive -- but it can't be a dream sequence. NO ONE would include a fanny pack in a dream!

We do know, Gal and Chris will battle Kristen Wiig, who's playing supervillain ... Cheetah.

Blake Griffin Making Out with Mystery Blonde ... Suffers No Injuries

1:58 PM PT -- Turns out Blake's mystery blonde is none other than Francesca Aiello -- the owner of Frankies Bikinis. Good choice.

Even in the off-season, Blake Griffin's rebound skills are on point -- just ask the blonde chick he was sucking face with in his Land Rover.

The NBA star and his mystery woman are definitely living on the edge. Saturday's date night included riding around on Bird scooters in L.A. ... which, considering Blake's history of injuries, might not have been the smartest option.

A better, safer idea? Sitting in Blake's whip and making out ... which they also did.

No clue yet who the lucky lady is, but she's the first woman he's been spotted with since he and Kendall Jenner broke things off.

We think we can safely speak for the entire Pistons organization here: Date all ya want, Blake ... but lay off the Birds!

Kylie Jenner Back in Shipshape Shape

Kylie Jenner is back in action, hitting up The Nice Guy in WeHo and looking like the whole pregnancy thing was just a dream.

Kylie showed up for a birthday party in a 2-piece satin suit ... pal Harry Hudson, a musician, turned 23. She arrived with her BFF Jordyn Woods.

No sign of Travis Scott. We're guessing grandma Kris did babysitting duties with 4-month-old Stormi ... or maybe she sprung for a babysitter. Based on what we know ... she can afford it.

Helen Mirren Takes a Spill ... But She's OK

Helen Mirren went tumbling down after leaving an interview at the Cannes Film Festival ... but fortunately the dame is a-okay.

The 72-year-old actress went down Saturday morning after being interviewed on Martinez Beach during the 71st annual film fest ... but was quickly helped to her feet and handed her shoe, and appeared to be relatively unharmed.

She told reporters afterward she sprained her wrist but is doing fine, and the good news is ... she still looked as elegant and fancy as ever in her royal purple coat.

The isn't the first fall for Helen at Cannes -- she tripped going up the stairs at a movie premiere in 2016 -- but hopefully it's her last.

Be careful, Dame Helen!

Kanye West Still Smiling On Heels of Big Album News

Kanye West is looking quite comfortable these days ... and we're not just talking about his outfit.

The rapper was spotted leaving Nobu in Malibu with some friends Friday night in a t-shirt, sweatpants and a light jacket ... and couldn't look happier about the way things are going lately.

Kanye's been in a great mood for a few days. We saw him smiling leaving his office after giving Charlamagne Tha God a preview of his new album, before announcing he's actually releasing TWO albums in June ... one with Kid Cudi.

SHOWING LOVE

Then of course, there was his social media PDA with Kim Kardashian at a party for Kourtney's 39th bday ... something rarely seen from the couple.

Clearly, it's good to be Kanye right now.

Abby Lee Miller Prison Made Me Tough as Nails ... Check Out the Mani!

Abby Lee Miller is halfway back to normal on the heels of her prison release -- 'cause she just got her nails done on the outside for the first time in almost a year.

Abby was spotted Thursday hitting up Pampered Hands -- a nail salon in WeHo -- just a couple days after being transferred to an L.A.-area halfway house to finish her sentence.

As you can see ... the former "Dance Moms" star was all smiles, and even appeared to be rockin' a dance-themed shirt. Old habits die hard, we suppose. Oh, and in case you're wondering ... she's allowed to go out for stuff like this, so long as it's approved.

Abby Lee Miller Room to Move ... Settles in at Halfway House

Abby Lee Miller is stretching her legs in her new digs on day 1 of her post-prison life.

We got these pics of Abby walking around a common area Wednesday morning at the Los Angeles-area halfway house where she's now a resident. The Residential Reentry Center will prep the "Dance Moms" star for a return to civilian life.

As TMZ first reported, Abby checked into the facility on Tuesday ... and will be getting counseling ahead of her May 25 release date. She has been serving her time for tax fraud since last July in the Victorville, CA prison.

As for her body transformation from being behind bars ... her baggy clothes make it hard to tell exactly how much Abby's slimmed down, but she's said to have dropped around 100 lbs. over the past 7 months.

Justin Bieber WWJD? Show Compassion for the Less Fortunate

Justin Bieber is showing compassion for folks who are down on their luck ... and this could have religious overtones.

Bieber was spotted Wednesday plopping himself down onto an L.A. sidewalk after a SoulCycle sesh to chat up a homeless man and woman who were sleeping on the pavement.

We're not sure what he was talking to them about, but he was clearly interested in what they had to say ... and was in no rush to wrap up the convo.

It's hard to ignore the fact that this is one of the holiest weeks of the year for Christians, and Justin has steeped himself in church life.

Mel B In Case You Forget ... I'm a Spice Girl!!!

Mel B's so obsessed with being in the Spice Girls, you might say it's scary ... and if you didn't say it, her wardrobe spells it out.

Mel was out in WeHo Tuesday wearing a pink coat emblazoned with her Spice name ... Scary. There were a few clues for anyone walking behind Mel, too -- the back of the jacket's bedazzled with the famous line "ZIGA ZIG HA" from their huge hit, "Wannabe."

Mel was hanging with her hairdresser pal, Gary Madatyan, near BOA Steakhouse when she was photographed in the throwback uni, which is about to be all the rage again.

We broke the story ... Mel and the rest of the Spice Girls signed with their old manager, Simon Fuller, and have agreed to reunite for a tour later this year.

Rick Ross Body on the Mend And So Is My Family

Rick Ross is looking thinner, but also much stronger after his intensive care health crisis -- and he's even taking time to deal with family matters.

Rick was out with his mom, Tommie Roberts, earlier this week in Fort Lauderdale. The Boss was feeling good enough to floss for photogs as he left an attorney's office. We're told he's in the process of hammering out a child support agreement with his baby mama, Tia Kemp.

Tia and Rick have been going HAM on each other on social media in recent months ... with her accusing him of neglecting their son and calling his family ugly. For his part, Rick's claimed Tia's just salty over the fact he banged her sister first.

If Rick's ready to take on that battle, he's gotta be close to being fully recovered from that hospital stay. Silver lining?

Eric Dane Doctor's Got a Brand New Bag

Eric Dane might be having a major blonde moment in the wake of him and his wife filing for divorce -- that, or he's just really feeling himself ... we're not sure.

The "Grey's Anatomy" star was spotted rockin' a brand new 'do Tuesday in WeHo -- combed up and to the side ... and a bit more bleached than what we're used to seeing. He was also wearing a pair of cool sunglasses, with a very cool coat. Ladykiller, are we right?

We broke the story ... Eric's wife of 14 years, Rebecca Gayheart, filed for divorce last month, and Eric responded with a very similar filing. He agreed to her spousal support request, as well as her bid to gain joint legal and physical custody of their 2 kids.

Now that most of the dirty work appears to be settled ... time to get back to channeling McSteamy.

Brad Pitt I'm Here for Oscar

Brad Pitt's back in the Hollywood scene ... anything for Oscar.

Brad made a rare appearance at the Gersh Oscar Party at the famed Chateau Marmont on the Sunset Strip. He was flanked by his manager, Cynthia Pett-Dante, and was all smiles. Brad's kept a pretty low profile since splitting from Angelina Jolie.

The appearance comes on the heels of Brad signing on for Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" ... a film about a struggling actor who lives next door to Sharon Tate at the time of the 1969 murders.

As we reported ... Sharon's sister's not happy about it.

Nick Jonas Bloody Good Hook-Up Down Under With Hot Mystery Girl

Nick Jonas isn't gonna let a little thing like an open wound on a hot chick's knee crush his game, as proven by this footage of their epic day ... complete with public makeout sesh.

Nick and his bro Joe are gallivanting around Australia this week, but Nick went solo on Wednesday for a hot date that got off to a rough start when his date banged up her knees during a bike ride.

Not to worry, he rescued the sexy sheila (Aussie for babe) in distress by sweeping her off her feet -- and gnarly knee.

NICK AT NIGHT
MEGA

Nick and his chick did lunch, did the beach, did a romantic nightcap at Sydney's Watson's Bay Hotel -- then, most likely, did each other.

They didn't even try to hide their hot and heavy hook-up, and we're told they left together after the place cleared out.

Beats the hell outta tossing balls with your bro.

Chris Pratt Gettin' to Joe You ... Coffee Dating Blonde?

Chris Pratt looked like a single guy back in the dating saddle as he met up with a woman ... who happens to look a lot like his estranged wife.

The "Jurassic World" star was at an L.A. Coffee Bean Wednesday, and had a friendly embrace with the hot mystery blonde.

It's unclear if this was a romantic hookup, or purely platonic ... but, fact is, a lot of people in Hollywood are anxiously waiting for Chris to get back on the dating scene after last year's split from Anna Faris.

We know Anna's moved on with cinematographer Michael Barrett -- he's even met her parents.

If Chris really is ready to start dating again, looks like his game is still strong ... based on the smile on his lady friend's face.

Emily Ratajkowski Spotted After Surprise Wedding With New Hubby, Sebastian

Emily Ratajkowski clearly wanted folks to see her after her blitz wedding this week, so she stepped out in spots with her new hubby ... mission accomplished.

The new bride and her groom, Sebastian Bear-McClard, went out for the first time in public Saturday night for dinner in NYC after their courthouse marriage the day before. Em rocked a matching leopard print outfit ... meanwhile, Seb was feelin' blue.

As we reported ... Emily and Sebastian tied the knot Friday at City Hall with a couple friends in attendance. She and her guy had only been dating a few weeks. Social media star, The Fat Jewish, was one of the people who appeared to serve as a witness.

No word on a honeymoon yet ... date night's a start, though, we guess.

Sam Smith & Brandon Flynn Smokin' Smooch Always Before a Stoge

Sam Smith and his boyfriend, Brandon Flynn, were burning up the UK this weekend in more ways than one ... but it was mostly by (tongue in) mouth.

Sam and Brandon were spotted out in London Saturday night with Sam's sister, Lily, taggin' along. As any couple would, the 2 lovers stopped for a peck in the street. Kidding ... it was more like a full-blown movie make-out sesh, actually. Awww, young love!

At some point, Brandon was seen with a lit cigarette in hand -- as was Lily. Can't blame 'em -- something this hot is often followed up by some tobacco and nicotine ... even though smoking is awful.

One thing's for sure -- these two aren't shy about showing affection in public ... as seen here, here and here.
