'The Office' Star Brian Baumgartner College Bar Bender ... Leaves a Big 69!!!

Brian Baumgartner -- aka Kevin Malone from "The Office" -- was the life of the party at an Iowa bar this week, throwing back shots with college kids and leaving a meaningful tip.

We got these pics of Brian crashing country night at Bo-James bar in downtown Iowa City ... and you can tell he had one hell of a night!

Folks who were there tell us Brian surprised everyone when he strolled in at 9 PM on a Wednesday, and he was cutting loose and boozing it up like a frat bro. We're told Brian was downing Crown and Cokes, and he even climbed behind the bar to do a little bartending!

As you can imagine, Brian's rager was a big hit ... and we're told everyone was clamoring to buy him a round. Brian's a celeb, so he asked the bar staff to charge his card so he could leave a tip -- and they both had fun with the number 69!

Brian's in town for a speaking engagement at the University of Iowa, and we're told he partied the night away at the student hangout until 1 AM. Booze wasn't the only thing on Brian's brain ... he also played darts and belted out some country songs.

Can we all go back to college?!?

Idris Elba at Coachella DJ Set Killed ... Packed House Under Yuma

041419_idris)elba_kal
CROWD PLEASER

Idris Elba -- aka DJ Big Driis -- showed off his turntable skills at Coachella Saturday night ... and people were definitely interested in witnessing it firsthand.

The British actor headlined a set during Day 2 of the festival, coming onstage under the Yuma tent around 9 PM in front of what appeared to be a packed house of spectators.

In this up-close footage, obtained by TMZ, you can see just how far back the crowd went, and just how into the music they were. We're told Idris mostly stuck to house music during his two-hour show. He didn't bring any special guests out as far as we know -- but he really didn't need to ... the crowd was all in on his vibe. And, besides, it's Idris-Freakin'-Elba.

It's funny -- Idris stars in a new Netflix film called "Turn Up Charlie," in which he plays a professional DJ-turned-nanny ... with hilarious results. Obviously, he was perfect for that role.

What's that saying about life imitating art?

Here's Bruce Willis getting down on the harmonica in Harlem, singing and jamming out on stage during a jazz show ... and the video is amazing!!!

We got these clips of Bruce at The Apollo Theater last week, where he and lots of celebs showed up to salute the Jazz Foundation of America ... and ya gotta see Bruce bring the house down!!!

Bruce was one of the last acts to perform, and you see him showing off his pipes and playing the hell out of the harmonica during a 5-minute solo set with the jazz band, Sweet Georgia Brown. The song he's singing is his very own, "Devil Woman."

Other celebs joining Bruce at the event include Common, Keegan-Michael Key, Danny Glover, Patti Smith, Tony Bennett, Quincy Jones and Bettye LaVette.

We're told Bruce's performance was a big hit ... the crowd started chanting "Bruno," his musical alter ego.

LEO INCOGNITO
TMZ.com

Leonardo DiCaprio is back in the desert for another year of Coachella -- and it looks like he's there with his latest boo thang ... who was apparently being a very good girl.

Leo was spotted late Friday night/early Saturday morning at the Poppy x Google Midnight Bloom after-party around 2:30 AM, where he was sporting his usual incognito getup ... a dark hoodie, a hat and sunglasses. It's really not even a disguise anymore, dude.

Anyway, the shindig drew a number of celebs ... we're told folks like Paris Hilton, Nick Young, Trae Young and even Cuba Gooding Jr. were there. And, of course, Leo and who we believe might be his 21-year-old Argentinian model (ex-?) flame, Camila Morrone.

In this video, obtained by TMZ, you see him stand up at one point and pet the girl who was sitting next to him ... right on the noggin. It's unclear if this is Camila, or some other chick he's cozied up with since ... but he's obviously comfortable enough to do a head pat.

Leo and Camila haven't been seen together in public since at least November of last year -- which seemed to cap off a whirlwind 2018 romance that also placed them at Coachella.

She got pretty handsy with him during a day party hosted by none than his former ex, Rihanna. And, the next day ... he returned the favor by clinging on to her for dear life.

If this is, in fact, a new chick ... well, that's nothing new. But, if it's actually Camila ... weeeellll, that's actually pretty surprising. Might the Wolf actually be settling down???

Selena Gomez, Cardi B Rocked the House ... Coachella, Day 1

Cardi B and Selena Gomez weren't the headliners Friday at Coachella, but you coulda fooled the crowd.

DJ Snake was performing on Day 1 and about an hour in Cardi B appeared followed by Selena.

BTW ... Selena hasn't performed for a year -- the last time we saw her onstage was when she joined Taylor Swift in May 2018 during her Reputation tour. Selena skipped Coachella last year. During the 2017 Festival, she made her relationship with The Weeknd public ... now her ex.

Cardi and Selena only performed one song -- "Taki Taki" ... the 2018 song they recorded with DJ Snake. Nevertheless, it was the highlight of the night.

Cardi's not scheduled to perform at the festival this year. Remember, last year she performed when she was very, very pregnant.

Jaden Smith Whips it Good at Coachella ... With Special Guest Jordyn Woods

Jaden Smith was all about fam Friday at Coachella ... bringing out the Kardashian's current arch-enemy -- one Jordyn Woods.

The 20-year-old took the stage with a Tesla overhead ... suspended by chains. As for why ... Jaden has a long-standing relationship with Tesla's creator -- Elon Musk.

The car was lowered to the stage, and Jaden performed atop the whip.

Towards the beginning of his set, Jaden paid homage to Nipsey Hussle before bringing his sister, Willow, out on stage. She also performed, singing "Icon" along with her brother.

As for Jordyn ... she jumped on stage and danced around the Tesla. She wasn't there long, but she was clearly there to make a point ... Jaden and his fam support her. BTW, Jordyn was surrounded by security the entire time she was on stage.

After the performance, Jordyn was hanging with a guy ... we don't know who, but he was all over her.

As for the Kardashians ... Kendall was there with pal Hailey Bieber, cheering Jaden on. No sign of any other Kardashians Friday at the Festival, although they're all expected to show up ... for sure on Easter Sunday when Kanye performs a Sunday Service in the AM.

Kirk Douglas Camping It Up at 102!!!

Kirk Douglas has a lot going for him ... including longevity, because he's still out having fun at the ripe old age of 102!!!

Kirk was camping in grandson Cameron's backyard Friday ... maybe it's not full-blown camping, but still ... the guy's 102 and hangin' in a tent.

Mr. Spartacus was laying on an inflatable mattress with a couple pillows for support ... poolside, of course.

Kirk was rockin' a pair of sunglasses as he took in the sights.

His son, Michael, has said his dad is still super engaged ... he loves FaceTime.

The elder statesman has become one of the most beloved and enduring figures in Hollywood over the years. He celebrated his 100th birthday at the Beverly Hills Hotel, which opened just 4 years before he was born. BTW ... despite a stroke in 1996, Kirk works out with the help of a personal trainer.

Kirk has 94 acting credits including, of course, the iconic "Spartacus." His most recent film, "Illusion," was released in 2004. Kirk's been nominated 3 times for an Oscar, but never won.

He's been married to Anne Buydens for 64 years.

Soulja Boy You Took Our Money and Bailed!!! ... Pay Us $25k or Else

Soulja Boy's has a brand new 5-figure headache to distract him while he sits in jail for the next 2 weeks or so ... it's a potential lawsuit for skipping out on a recent concert.

The legal threat's coming from a promoter named William Hicks, who claims Soulja accepted $8,750 as payment for a gig last weekend in Birmingham, Alabama. Hicks says, in a letter fired off to Soulja's camp, the money was wired back in January ... but the rapper was a no-show.

According to the letter, obtained by TMZ, Soulja waited until hours before the show to cancel ... which totally screwed Hicks. He says he's out money for booking hotels and lost profits on the show itself. He called out Soulja on social media and, of course, SB responded savagely.

Hicks wants Soulja to cough up at least $25k for his troubles ... or face a lawsuit.

We're guessing Soulja hasn't seen the letter yet, because he's behind bars. As we reported ... he was arrested Thursday after a judge found he violated probation.

He's going to remain in custody until a hearing scheduled for April 30 -- and that's already forced him to cancel at least 2 scheduled shows. It remains to be seen if he gets sued for those.

Dwyane Wade Parties with Timberlake ... After Final NBA Game

Dwyane Wade's NYC retirement party turned into a good Bye-Bye-Bye Bash Wednesday night ... when Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel stopped by to celebrate D-Wade's career!

The party was crazy -- a '70s-themed rager at Catch NYC with costumes and great music and basketball stars ... including Wade's good friend, Carmelo Anthony!

TMZ Sports obtained video from inside the party where you can see D-Wade, Gabby and Justin all gettin' down on the dance floor!!

Earlier in the evening, Wade posted a triple-double as the Miami Heat lost to the Brooklyn Nets 113-94.

A ton of Wade's friends were in the Brooklyn crowd -- including LeBron James, Carmelo and Chris Paul ... the entire Banana Boat crew.

Wade also gave his jersey to Carmelo after the game.

So, this is it ... Wade has finally closed the book on his 16-year NBA career that features 3 NBA championships, an NBA Finals MVP, 13 All-Star appearances, he won an Olympic gold medal for Team USA and he was also the NBA scoring champ in 2009.

He was also named to 8 All-NBA teams during his run.

So, what's next for Dwyane? Dude's got options in everything from fashion to TV announcing to acting ... and also helping his superstar sons as they get ready to play at the college level.

Congrats!

Kelly didn't even have to sing ... we're told he picked up the mic just for fun.

The crowd inside the club was super small, only about 50 people showed up for Kelly. We're told he rolled up at 10:30 PM and didn't come out to greet fans until 2 AM.

DOING WHAT I GOTTA DO

Kelly went on Instagram before his paid gig, asking the media to take it easy on him when he's seen in the club drinking and partying. He made it clear he's just showing up to collect a check.

NEVER TOO EARLY

Carson Kressley thinks it's a BEAUTIFUL thing that Dwyane Wade's family took his 11-year-old son to the Miami gay pride parade this weekend ... because families should support each other.

As we previously reported, Gabrielle Union took 11-year-old Zion Wade to the massive festival on Sunday where they danced and celebrated at one of the largest LGBTQ events in the country.

Dwyane was on the road with the Miami Heat but posted messages of support and said, "We support each other with pride."

FAMILY PRIDE

There has been some blowback from haters who think Wade's kid is too young to attend a pride parade -- but Kressley immediately shot that down and said those people don't understand what Pride is really about.

"I would say [to those people] come to a gay pride [event] and you'll see how beautiful and embracing and how diverse and how wonderful it is ... and kids should be there to see it!"

He added, "It's a beautiful thing. It's great when parents bring their kids."

Kressley has been a leader in the LGBTQ community for years -- and was the grand marshal at the 2018 Come Out with Pride parade in Orlando.

CHUGGIN' BREWS
@marchmadness

Virginia won the title, but NO ONE had more fun than Travis Kelce ... 'cause the NFL star was pounding brews while supporting Patrick Mahomes' team!!

Kelce's Cincinnati Bearcats were eliminated in the 1st-round of the tourney, so with no horse in the race, he decided to show love for his QB's Texas Tech squad as they took on the Cavaliers.

Mahomes was SUPER into the game, constantly cheering and firing up his TT fans. Kelce was the perfect wingman -- making sure no beer got left behind.

Of course, Texas Tech lost in overtime. Still, a helluva run for the Red Raiders.

As for the winners, NFL star Chris Long was also in the house cheering on his alma mater -- while clutching a Coors Light -- and after the game, he had a message for Virginia coach Tony Bennett.

"Tony’s way too stable a person to have a twitter and he won’t read this but when I see him I’m going to hug him and tell him he’s the single most important figure in UVa athletic history."

Long also had some nice words for the enemy -- saying, "Everyone from Texas Tech I met was super classy and cool."

"Great run. Knocked off some great teams. A game for the ages tonight."

Congrats!

Virginia Basketball Burn The Couches!!! ... To Celebrate Title

The IKEA furniture didn't stand a chance in Charlottesville after Virginia won the NCAA championship Monday night ... because there was a SOFA INFERNO right on the streets!

The Cavaliers defeated Texas Tech in an overtime thriller in Minnesota to clinch the school's very first national title -- and the fans back home in VA went crazy to celebrate.

Check out this footage of UVA fans setting fire to a couch and dancing around while chanting "Seven Nation Army" by the White Stripes in video shot by reporter Austin Kellerman.

Fortunately, no one was hurt and cops reportedly didn't make any arrests -- so all in all, pretty harmless fun.

Other students and fans flooded campus to chant and cheer -- the videos are insane!

NHL's JT Brown Arrested ... Two Drunken Altercations Before Game

NHL forward JT Brown was arrested just hours before his Minnesota Wild team took on the Dallas Stars on Saturday ... 'cause cops say he was involved in TWO drunken altercations.

The Wild stud -- who was the first-ever NHL player to protest during the national anthem -- went out partying in Dallas the night before his team was set to play in Big D.

The problem ... cops say he got wasted -- and caused such a big scene with employees and patrons inside a local bar -- he was booted off the premises.

But, cops say JT later returned around 2 AM ... and drunkenly got into it AGAIN with bar employees -- and this time, cops say they decided to arrest him.

We're told JT was processed for public intoxication, a Misdemeanor C violation.

One of the crazier parts of the story?? The Wild kept Brown out of its game Saturday night but said it was because he was battling an illness.

For his part, Brown released a statement, saying, “I would like to apologize to the Minnesota Wild, my teammates, family, and fans for the poor decision I made."

"I went out the night before our last game in Dallas, put myself in a bad situation, and take full responsibility for my actions. I have learned from my mistake and will make sure it does not happen again."

JT scored 3 goals in 56 games for the Wild this season.

FAMILY PRIDE

Gabrielle Union was dancing her ass off at the Pride Festival in Miami Beach this weekend ... and it was all to show support for her 11-year-old stepson, Zion.

Zion is Dwyane Wade's son from a previous relationship but he lives with Dwyane and Gabby full-time and Gabby treats him like blood.

While Wade wasn't at the event -- the Miami Heat had a game in Toronto -- the NBA star was certainly proud of his family, saying:

"Zion had his own cheering section today. Wish I was there to see you smile kid."

The Pride Festival in Miami Beach is one of the biggest LGBTQ events in the country -- with more than 145,000 people flocking to South Beach last year to celebrate together.

Gabby was having a blast -- dancing, taking pictures with fans and signing autographs.

Zion was sporting a rainbow ribbon and a big ol' smile!

Dwyane posted a photo of his older son, Zaire -- a HUGE prep basketball star -- with Zion at the parade along with the caption, "We support each other with pride."

He added, "It's a family thing."

Pretty awesome, if you ask us.
