"Jersey Shore" stars Sammi Giancola and Vinny Guadagnino's dueling engagement announcements on April 1 were not a part of a prank war ... well, not entirely.

Sammi Sweetheart's engagement to boyfriend Justin May did, in fact, happen ... as the MTV personality assured her followers her relationship update was not an April Fools' Day joke. She says Justin popped the question on March 16, but they made the risky decision to share the news -- and first photos of the diamond ring -- on April 1.

Her costars offered up some sincere reactions ... as Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Angelina Pivarnick and Pauly "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio all shared their congratulations in the comments section.

Daniel Tosh afirma que Kylie Jenner está embarazada de Timothée Chalamet... pero nos informan que es mentira.

El comediante dejó caer esta bomba en el último episodio de su pódcast, afirmando que habló con un empleado de la tienda de comestibles de Malibú recientemente, preguntando por qué estaban cerrados un día de semana, y él asegura que el trabajador dijo que los KarJenners estaban filmando allí.

Tosh dice que este empleado afirmó que estaban filmando el final de la próxima temporada de "The Kardashians", y durante la escena de compras de supermercado de la familia, KJ aparentemente revela que está esperando de nuevo, lo que haría que este sea su tercer hijo.

Daniel Tosh is claiming Kylie Jenner is pregnant with Timothée Chalamet's baby ... but we're hearing it's bullcrap, and there's zero truth to it.

The comedian dropped this would-be bombshell on his latest podcast episode, claiming he spoke with a Malibu grocery store employee recently, asking why they were closed one day in the week -- and he says the worker told the KarJenners were filming there.

Specifically, Tosh says this employee claimed they were filming the finale for the upcoming season of "The Kardashians" ... and during staged grocery store shopping being done by the fam, KJ apparently reveals she's expecting again -- which would make this her third kid.

Gerry Turner and his wife Theresa Nist are currently living in separate states -- but despite the distance, the sun isn't setting on their relationship ... in fact, it's quite the opposite.

Sources close to the 'Golden Bachelor' stars tell TMZ the couple -- who married in a 'Golden Wedding' special on Jan. 4 -- are doing the long-distance thing, with Gerry chilling at his Northern Indiana lake house while Theresa's over in New Jersey.

We're told there are a few reasons why they haven't taken the leap to live together just yet ... and a lot of it has to do with the fact that moving is a complete and total hassle.

Dean McDermott's not letting his relationship woes slow him down, 'cause he's keeping it moving after Tori Spelling filed for divorce ... which he says was inevitable.

Check out this clip of Dean that was shot over the weekend -- on the heels of Tori filing -- and you'll see he's not really sweating it all that much, or so it seems. He's being interviewed by a pap as he gets into his car ... and is asked directly about the divorce.

Dean is looking cool as a cucumber ... as he reassures a pap he's doing good, despite everything going on. He calmly admits the decision to end things was a long time coming -- adding that despite the split ... things aren't bitter between him and TS.

After "The Real Housewives of Potomac" began shaking up its cast last week, some fans online began begging for reality TV icon, Omarosa to join the series -- but this is unlikely to happen ... TMZ has learned.

Omarosa tells TMZ … she is far too busy with law school and preparing for the bar exam to participate in 'RHOP' for season 9. "The Apprentice" alum says she wasn't even aware fans were pushing for her to join the Bravo hit, admitting she has never even considered becoming a 'Housewife' before.

However, O says she's not opposed to joining 'Housewives' in the future -- as she's a fan of the franchise. Though she clarifies neither Bravo nor casting has reached out to her about signing up for the series.

Kim Zolciak filmed a reality show pilot with her daughters Brielle and Ariana, but her estranged hubby Kroy Biermann is completely MIA from the project ... TMZ has learned.

Production sources tell us ... despite the awkwardness of Kim and Kroy still living under the same roof, cameras were rolling at their Georgia home in January after a production company approached Kim, asking to document her post-split life.

Our sources say the pilot has been getting shopped around for over a month now ... and there's one particular network showing a lot of interest. We're told Bravo -- Kim's old 'RHOA' stomping ground -- isn't the network where the series would potentially land.

Kim Zolciak filmó un piloto de un reality show con sus hijas Brielle y Ariana, pero su marido Kroy Biermann está completamente desaparecido del proyecto, según ha averiguado TMZ.

Fuentes de producción nos dicen que a pesar de la incomodidad de que Kim y Kroy sigan viviendo bajo el mismo techo, las cámaras estuvieron filmando en su casa de Georgia en enero, después de que una compañía de producción se acercara a Kim, pidiendo documentar su vida después de la separación.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que el piloto se ha estado vendiendo durante más de un mes y hay una cadena en particular que ha mostrado mucho interés. Nos dicen que Bravo, el antiguo territorio de Kim en "Real Housewives Of Atlanta", no es la red donde potencialmente aterrizaría la serie.

Angelina Pivarnick vivió el sueño de todo millennial al unirse a AJ McLean de Backstreet Boys y Joey Fatone de *NSYNC y disfrutó como cualquiera de nosotros lo haría.

TMZ obtuvo un video con la estrella de "Jersey Shore" disfrutando de un concierto lleno de los boy band en Newark, Nueva Jersey la semana pasada. Joey y AJ estuvieron en el New Jersey Performing Arts Center y Angelina estaba al frente y al centro como una megafan.

Parece que su adoración por los muchachos valió la pena, porque la invitaron al escenario para cantar y bailar y ella hizo mucho de ambas cosas.

Angelina Pivarnick lived every millennial's dream by joining Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean and *NSYNC's Joey Fatone for a show ... and yes, she rocked out like any of us would.

TMZ has obtained video featuring the "Jersey Shore" star enjoying a boy band-filled gig in Newark, NJ last week ... where Joey and AJ teamed up for a concert at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, and where Angelina was front and center as a megafan.

It seems her adoration for the fellas paid off ... 'cause they brought her onstage to sing and dance ... and she did plenty of both.

Chef Stuart O'Keeffe is popping off on all the behind-the-scenes drama on Netflix's "Queer Eye" ... especially since he was initially cast to be one of the Fab 5 before production gave him the boot.

We got Stu leaving Pastis in NYC ... and he tells us he's glad he didn't end up being part of the series after the Rolling Stone article unveiled all the mean girl vibes behind the scenes -- which is particularly dicey since the show's all about changing people's lives for the better.

Stu's also questioning how "Queer Eye" can continue shooting another season and convince viewers they're a tight-knit, unified team ready to lend a helping hand. Remember, the expose alleged there was no love lost between the show's leads, Antoni Porowski, Bobby Berk, Jonathan Van Ness, Karamo Brown and Tan France.

Christine Quinn buscó la ayuda de la policía esta semana, alegando que su marido podría haber intervenido su habitación, lo que coincide con lo que dijo en la solicitud de su orden de restricción temporal (TRO).

Fuentes policiales le dicen a TMZ que los oficiales de LASD respondieron a una llamada el martes justo antes de la medianoche en un hotel de West Hollywood. La estrella de "Selling Sunset" les habría dicho que creía que alguien estaba vigilando digitalmente su habitación con cables y micrófonos.

We're told she also expressed fear someone was trying to get her credit card info.

Automated tattoo machines are just a passing fad and won't ever replace human-to-human interaction in the ink game -- that's how a couple flesh-and-blood masters of the craft see it.

We spoke with "Ink Master" winner Bobby Johnson and fellow contestant Aaron Davis -- who both appeared in Season 15 together -- about the recent robot-human tattoo collab that took the internet by storm, and both guys slammed the entire concept.

Right off the bat, Bobby calls the tech tattoo trend ridiculous ... likening it to a factory production line of food, and calling it out for lacking heart and passion.
