Kanye West The Test

0-4afxtc1n

Kanye West was faced with a big challenge -- walk through an airport with photogs and fans hounding him and Kim Kardashian without losing his temper ... and he passed with flying colors.

Kim and Kanye were walking with baby North through the airport in Melbourne over the weekend ... and security did nothing to stop a slew of fans from walking up to them and snapping pics.

Not only did Kanye not snap ... he even smiled a few times! What is going on here?!?!?

Kanye pled no contest in March for beating up a photographer at LAX back in July 2013. He got 24 months informal probation as part of the plea deal ... so flipping at an airport again would probably land him some jail time.

Still ... it's amazing to see him so restrained.

Joan Rivers Write This on My Tombstone ...

0-tyca2n1w

Joan Rivers spoke prophetically about what she wanted on her tombstone one month ago -- and the words she chose were classic Joan.

She was at LAX back in August when a photographer -- with whom she clearly had a good relationship -- jokingly asked about her health ... and what she would want her epitaph to say.

Check it out ... it's simple, honest -- and no one could possibly argue against it.

R.I.P. to one of the greats.

0-szjifxqf

McKayla Maroney isn't letting the nude photo hacker ruin her life -- laughing off questions about the scumbag during an outing in Bev Hills Tuesday.

The Team USA gymnast was strolling into an office building with her mother Tuesday when she told the photog her fans were being supportive throughout the ordeal.

McKayla originally claimed the nude pics allegedly hacked out of her phone were fake -- but later sent a legal letter to porn sites demanding they pull them down because she was UNDERAGE when they were taken.

Kim Kardashian & Rita Ora Drama Brewing ... On Same Flight Out of LAX

0-jgayfqau

Kim Kardashian and Rita Ora ended up on the same flight out of Los Angeles Monday, which wouldn't be a big deal ... until you remember Kim has MAJOR BEEF with Rita!!!

As TMZ first reported, Kim still blames Rita for her bad breakup with Rob Kardashian ... which she considers the cause of a lot of his problems since then.

Things are still so bad between them ... Kim refused to sit near Rita at the VMAs.

Rita arrived about 30 minutes before Kim -- who was with Kanye West and North -- but they probably ended up in first class together.

Power up the noise-cancelling headphones.

0-eqnxq8rh

Jon Voight says he's delighted Brad Pitt finally made an honest woman of his daughter Angelina Jolie ... even though they didn't invite him to the wedding.

The father of the bride was leaving breakfast in L.A. when he told a photog he's anxious to catch up with the newlyweds and celebrate their wedding.

JV doesn't seem the least bit bitter about not getting an invitation -- but things did get a little awkward when the photog asked when he'd be raising a glass to Brad and Angie.

Watch, ya gotta feel for Jon a little.

Queen Elizabeth's Guard Tongues Tourists On Camera!!

0-nu8a60p6

Here's something to get Queen Elizabeth's britches in a bunch -- video of one of her famous Royal Foot Guards slacking on the job, but in a pretty funny way.

The radical break with royal tradition went down at Buckingham Palace ... where the guard in question decided to put on a show for tourists -- cracking smiles, making faces, and sticking out his tongue.

QE2's protectors usually stand stoned face and never react to anything.

This guy might be smiling in the unemployment line right now.

Mariah Carey Divorce is Hot Topic ... Too Hot

0-l2e5q9kb

Mariah Carey had a chance to spin her divorce with Nick Cannon, but she said it's simply "too hot" to talk.

Mariah was walking around NYC Monday with her nephew. As the video starts, you can see Mariah putting on a large hat she had just purchased.

But when the photog asked her to comment on her split from Nick, she pled the fifth ... citing the weather. FYI, it was only in the mid 80s in New York Monday.

As TMZ first reported, the Nick and Mariah split is a done deal. It's just a matter of when they make it official.

Lady Gaga Soothes Crying Baby Goo Goo Gaga

0-wxqs9da4

Lady Gaga is flat out baby crazy ... which is no surprise given her last name is gaga.

We see babies get handed to politicians and celebs all the time ... but when you turn one over to Gaga, you'd better be ready for a show.

And Gaga -- who was in Australia prior to her artRAVE Tour -- did NOT disappoint.

There are no small gigs for Gaga ... especially in front of a live audience ... so this lucky kid got itself a PITCH-PERFECT performance ... which we're guessing was done for the benefit of the cameras.

Gaga, get that high note ready for us, in ... 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...

Justin Bieber Illegally Drives Can-Am on Sidewalk Almost Nails Disabled Woman

0-novcv557

Justin Bieber took his Can-Am Spyder into Bev Hills Thursday ... and when traffic got too congested for his taste, he maneuvered it onto the sidewalk where he rode illegally ... almost hitting someone.

Watch the video closely ... you'll see Bieber comes off the sidewalk at an intersection, and comes close to creaming an elderly woman with a walker.

He clearly doesn't care ... because seconds later he's rocking out to music as he waits at a light.

BTW ... Bieber's on probation for the egg throwing incident, which means he's not allowed to violate any laws. Lucky for him ... no cops in sight.

Mariah Carey Muzzles Nick in Divorce!

0-w5lsex0d

Mariah Carey has gagged Nick Cannon -- but not in a good way. He's not allowed to say boo about their divorce ... or else.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Nick and Mariah's lawyers hashed out a confidentiality agreement as part of their divorce ... and it's completely one-sided.

Nick is barred from saying anything about the split. If he does, there are severe financial penalties. But Mariah has the right under the agreement to announce the split on her terms.

Nick is clearly following orders ... check out the video from NYC Thursday -- he zipped it.

Nick is allowed to say they're now living separately ... which he's already done. But he cannot say anything about the divorce.

As TMZ first reported ... the divorce is a "done deal" ... the property settlement and child custody have already been hashed out.

Drake and Rihanna Together and Very Possibly Banging Again!

0-uoa83z7k

So Drake and Rihanna walk into a club ... which means they were banging, right?

The former couple hit up Griffin nightclub in NYC Monday night ... and according to photogs they were there for nearly 2 hours and left at around 3 AM -- 21 minutes apart.

Eyewitnesses inside the club tell TMZ ... Drake and Rihanna had tables next to each other and were deep in conversation, flirtatious and whispering in each other's ears.

Enough evidence for you?

Kourtney Kardashian I Got Screwed Buying a Mold-Infested House!

Kourtney Kardashian is crying cover-up ... claiming the house she bought from Keyshawn Johnson is infested with dangerous mold that was masked by a coat of paint ... sending her family fleeing for their safety.

We're told Kourtney's decorator found the mold when he installed some fixtures.

Kourtney and the kids checked into the Montage hotel in Bev Hills Monday. The photo agency didn't get Scott Disick ... but we're told he arrived later. The family just returned from the Hamptons and decided it was too dangerous to move back into the house -- especially since Kourtney is pregnant.

Sources connected with Kourtney say she's on the attack ... ready to sue anyone who's responsible. She believes the fresh paint over what she claims is mold is the smoking gun.

We've made multiple calls to Keyshawn ... but haven't heard back.

Super Agent Scott Boras RIPS JERRY MAGUIRE Bromance Is Bad for Business

0-liep8pjm

Jerry Maguire did not complete Scott Boras-- in fact, the super-agent tells TMZ Sports the '96 flick was a blueprint on how NOT to handle a player-agent relationship in the real world.

Boras -- who reps some of the biggest stars in MLB and famously negotiated Alex Rodriguez's $275 million mega deal in 2007 -- was at LAX this weekend when he told us the Tidwell-Maguire bromance in the movie is bad for business.

"The best thing you can do for a player probably is to handle that a little bit differently ... make sure he's more about decision making and what he needs to do and more about his relationship with his loved ones and your relationship is probably more of a professional one."

To quote Bob Sugar ... "It's not 'show friends' -- It's show business."

Brock Lesnar The NEW Champ is Here

0-15ma8nuu

Brock Lesnar's appetite was still in full effect after his epic SummerSlam victory Sunday night ... so he decided to wash down John Cena with a steak dinner.

Lesnar hit up Morton's in downtown Los Angeles with Paul Heyman after becoming the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. He brought his championship belts with him to dinner ... and they still have Cena's name on them!

But Lesnar didn't let his performance rest on its laurels ... he was still talking serious smack about Cena even after the match. He also drops a hint about the future of dual belts.

Eat. Sleep. Conquer. Repeat.

Reese Witherspoon Dancing Queen (GREAT VIDEO!)

0-l7yv98xx

Reese Witherspoon was the funnest girl in Capri, Italy Wednesday ... rocking out the way only white girls can during what looks like a wedding-related event.

Reese whipped her hair back and forth -- champagne in hand -- as she rocked out to "I Will Survive."

It's unclear how many times Anema e Core - The Tavern refilled her glass, but we're guessing several.

Judging from the video, she had enough to get footloose, but she was not "beyond."

We love Reese!
