The 79-year-old actor and his GF Tiffany Chen hit up the Vanity Fair x Prada party Saturday night at Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, and he looked as happy as ever as they strolled in for some late-night festivities.

Just hours before, Robert premiered his new Martin Scorsese-directed film, "Killers of the Flower Moon" ... getting an enormous roar of applause and a nine-minute standing ovation for the new movie -- which he stars in alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Jesse Plemons, and breakout star Lily Gladstone.

Ariana Madix Somber Arrival Back in L.A. ... After Death of Close Friend

Ariana Madix looked exhausted Saturday leaving LAX ... emotionally drained after losing her close friend Ali Rafiq.

The Vanderpump Rules star kept her shades on as she made her way through the terminal in a brown sweatshirt and matching pants.

She arrived back in L.A. the same day she paid tribute to Rafiq, sharing a photo of them on Instagram.

"I keep wanting to text you. It feels like this can't even be real. We were just planning your trip to LA. Talking about our futures and all the things we were looking forward to,' she wrote, before ticking off the things she missed about her late friend.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

While the two were obviously close, Madix actually met Rafiq through her ex, Tom Sandoval. The duo were childhood besties, and Tom also shared a post in remembrance.

Madix's life has been full of change recently, starting with the end of her nine-year relationship with Sandoval after discovering he cheated on her with her close friend, Raquel Leviss.

They brought along Jen's twins, Max and Emme, from her previous marriage to Marc Anthony to check out the playthings in Tom's Toys before hitting an ice cream shop for some treats.

The family outing comes on the heels of media reports speculating Ben and Jen had hit a rough patch in their relationship. Video surfaced showing them in a heated exchange inside their SUV. There was also footage of Jen getting into their Mercedes and Ben firmly shutting the door, but that report was BS ... he was clearly pissed at the photogs, not Jen.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are clearly lovin' their vacation together ... so much, in fact, that he gave her a nice pat on the rear as they stepped onto dry land for some lunch!

The Amazon bigwig and his boo were spotted in the South of France Saturday, taking some time away from his $500M superyacht to get some grub at Plage Keller in Antibes. We're told as Jeff helped Lauren into the spot, he gave her a playful smack on the butt!

The 2 were all smiles as they strolled into the restaurant together, clearly havin' a blast while in full vacay mode.

As we reported, the happy couple's been enjoying their time out in Europe on Jeff's half-a-bil yacht, dubbed the Koru ... soaking in the sun together on the new vessel's maiden voyage.

There was also discussion on whether or not the ship's busty figurehead was made to look exactly like Lauren ... but folks online have been debating if it really resembles her.

Prince Harry And Meghan Markle We Want Privacy From Paparazzi ... Oh Really?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle say all they want is their privacy, but they reportedly chose to have photogs snap their photos before the now infamous "chase" in NYC.

Sources tell the NY Post ... Harry and Meghan elected to stroll out in front of a throng of shutterbugs to get their pictures taken after they attended Tuesday night's awards ceremony at the Ziegfeld Theater in Manhattan.

The Post noted the couple made the decision despite having one of Barack Obama's former secret service agents on their security team. Chris Sanchez is the security dude's name and he's known as the “king of the back exits” ... because he's so good at keeping celebs under the paparazzi's radar.

After getting their fill of the cameras, Harry and Meghan jumped inside a waiting SUV with Sanchez and took off.

The Post quotes a source as saying, “Harry and Meghan were willing to give everyone those shots when they left the event, that was not the problem, but they were tailed from that point on."

Their rep, Ashley Hansen, gushed over the photos, telling the New York Times, “They were some of the most beautiful images of the evening."

This is just the latest example of Harry and Meghan wanting it both ways ... soaking up the limelight while demanding privacy ... at least that's the rap.

Matt Healy Rushes Into Taylor Swift's Building ... Carrying Overnight Bag, Video Shows

LATE-NIGHT RENDEZVOUS
Tik Tok/@brandeegaar

Matt Healy is learning ... when you're Taylor Swift's boyfriend, it's virtually impossible to escape the limelight.

The 1975 frontman found that out recently ... he was caught on video dashing up a flight of stairs at Taylor's Manhattan townhouse with what appeared to be an overnight bag gripped tightly in his hand.

When Matt got to the entrance, a man -- presumably a security guard -- threw open the front door. Matt zipped inside, heading through the lobby as the guard shut the door and followed.

The video started to spread on social media Friday, but it was purportedly shot Thursday night by a mysterious shutterbug. It's clear that Matt was trying to be inconspicuous as he rushed inside Taylor's building, but obviously it didn't work.

Safe to say, though, Matt was probably not sweatin' it given the fact he's dating the biggest pop star in the world. This kinda thing just goes with the territory.

As we reported, Matt and Taylor became an item after Taylor called it quits with her longtime boyfriend, actor Joe Alwyn, in April. Since then, the two have been almost inseparable with Matt accompanying Taylor on her Eras Tour to cheer her on as she performs.

Matt has also spent some time with Taylor's dad, Scott Swift, at one of her recent concerts in Philadelphia. The couple have also been on a double date with friends and recording in the music studio together.

What's next for these two lovebirds? Stay tuned.

G Flip is going to be on the upcoming 'SS' season, which just dropped on Netflix ... but Chrishell told E! News they will likely avoid a televised wedding.

Kourtney & Travis Strollin' Around New York City ... On The Road Together For Blink-182 Tour

Kourtney Kardashian is apparently hittin' the road with her beau Travis Barker and the rest of Blink-182 like a true groupie ... and the happy couple was out for a walk in NYC ahead of the band's epic concert at Madison Square Garden.

Kourtney and Travis were wandering down 5th Ave. Friday, sippin' some matcha just hours before Travis and co. blow the roof off the city's titular arena. They had some music-themed garb on, albeit on opposite ends of the spectrum -- him in Slayer and her in Ice Cube.

The 2 are still finding some time for each other despite their busy schedules ... and as you know, we've seen them practically attached at the hip numerous times over the years.

Amber Heard Quietly Enjoying New Life in Spain As Depp is Toast of Cannes

Amber Heard and Johnny Depp are both thriving in Europe, but leading very different lives -- while he's getting standing ovations in Cannes, she's keeping things lowkey as she goes about another day in Spain.

AH was out and about Thursday in Madrid, where she's now living with her daughter, Oonagh ... and looking pretty content with her new life.

She stopped to snap a pic with a fan, and was all smiles chatting it up with a pal, too. All in all, Amber seems to be in great spirits nearly one year after a jury unanimously found she had defamed her ex-husband ... whose life has also dramatically shifted.

As we reported, Johnny was clearly the fan favorite at Cannes, opening up the festival with his role as King Louis XV in Maïwenn's "Jeanne du Barry" ... and fans flocked outside the theater to welcome him back to the silver screen.

He also got a couple of massive standing ovations -- once when he first walked into the theater and again after the film, leaving Johnny pretty emotional.

Easy to understand why -- before last year's verdict, Depp was seen as a showbiz pariah accused of abusing Heard. Now, he's being celebrated for his acting and getting $20 million to remain the face of Dior's Sauvage cologne.

As we reported, Amber's become a fixture around Madrid amid reports she's quit Hollywood.

Interesting parallel, and seemingly happy, lives after all the drama of last year's bitterness.

Megan Fox and MGK Back On Track After Split Rumors How Much Do I Love Thee?!?

Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly buried any rumors of a possible split Thursday night ... the couple was spotted all over Manhattan -- and all over each other.

Check out this video, obtained by TMZ, which shows Megan and MGK standing side by side in front of Skylight Essex Crossing, where they had just left a party also attended by Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and his wife, Kourtney Kardashian.

MGK has his arm wrapped around Megan as he massages her back. The two also hold hands as they mosey down the block.

We're told MGK and Megan were "super affectionate" and couldn't keep their paws off one another. MGK was kissing Megan, putting to bed claims their relationship was in trouble.

As you recall, Megan first hinted at a breakup with MGK in February when she posted on social media lyrics from Beyoncé's "Lemonade" album, alluding to infidelity. Fans took that to mean the couple had gone their separate ways. Some even speculated that MGK had an affair with his band's guitarist, Sophie Lloyd. Sophie's reps vehemently denied it.

But now it seems everything is back on track for Megan and MGK. On top of the shindig, the lovebirds hit the red carpet at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue release party Thursday night in NYC. Megan is one of the models featured in the issue.

The pair started dating in 2020 after meeting on the movie set of "Midnight in the Switchgrass."

Andy Cohen says the reason the "Vanderpump Rules" cheating scandal is such a big story two months after the fact is because lots of people are curious about infidelity ... and without a doubt, this affair has it all.

Jeff Bezos Superyacht's Figurehead ... Wooden Replica of Lauren?!?

Jeff Bezos isn't dropping half a billion on a superyacht without including a sexy homage to his girlfriend Lauren Sanchez ... or, at least, that's what the internet thinks he did with a beautiful sculpture on the front of the ship.

Check out the wooden carving on the prow of Bezos' new nautical toy -- it shows a busty woman with long hair in a flowing gown and angel wings.

Some observers see a whole lotta Lauren in the figure's face, while others think it's a stretch to say it's a shrine to his boo.

Whether it's her or not ... Lauren was rocking a pink bikini -- not featured on the sculpture -- aboard the swanky ship, dubbed the Koru, this week with Jeff.

This is their maiden voyage aboard the Koru ... which has plenty of room for them to stretch out and soak up some rays.

As they vacay, the debate continues about Jeff's lady of the sea, so the question must be asked ...

Rachel Bilson I Lost a Job Over Sex Comments ... I Was Just Bein' Honest!

SACKED OVER SEX
Broad Ideas with Rachel Bilson

Rachel Bilson says she had a gig pulled out from under her for openly sharing her sex preferences in the bedroom, which she says include being "f***ing manhandled" while doin' the deed!

Here's the deal ... the actress was talking about her favorite sex positions on the "Women on Top" podcast earlier this month, and one part went viral when she explained the wild reason why missionary is one of her favorites.

This week, on her own "Broad Ideas" podcast, she revealed she had a new job locked in place ... but the sex talk cost her the whole thing.

Rachel's pretty pressed over it, claiming she was just speaking in a "humorous way" about sex, and can't fathom why the plug was pulled for simply being honest.

Looking back, Rachel's pretty sure she might've worded her opinion differently, but says she definitely wouldn't have stopped herself from telling her truth.

She adds it's the first time something she's said has made her lose work, but for those unaware, she's been candid about her sex life in the past -- revealing she didn't have her first orgasm until she was 38 years old.

That news had fans scrambling to do the math while taking a look at her past of A-list exes, including Bill Hader, Hayden Christensen, and even "Bachelor" alum Nick Viall.

SHY GLIZZY EX-GF CLAIMS HE THREATENED TO KILL HER AND HER FAMILY

Shy Glizzy's ex-girlfriend claims he's threatening to kill her, her family, her friends, and any man she dates in the future ... and now she just got court-ordered protection.

The rapper's ex, who works as a model, makes the shocking claims in her request for a restraining order against him ... telling the judge he's been threatening her ever since she broke things off with him.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, the gf claims Shy has repeatedly told her he will kill her and her mother. She says he's been making the threats ever since she broke up with him in April ... and she says he sent her a text message that said, "Ima f*** ya life up."

Shy's ex claims she started dating Shy in December but broke up with him on April 28 because she says he has "anger issues." She says Shy did not take the breakup well and things reached a head on May 13, when he was arrested for allegedly threatening her.

In the docs, the ex claims on May 13 she was driving around Los Angeles and noticed Shy was following her. She says she was stopped at a red light when he got out of his car and approached her car, banging her car with the handle of a gun. She says she drove away but he followed her and tried to run her off the road, hitting her car with his car and causing damage.

TMZ broke the story ... Shy Glizzy was arrested on May 13 on a felony charge of making criminal threats after his ex told police he pulled a gun on her.

The ex claims she's told Shy to stop contacting her, but she says he keeps messaging her, threatening to kill her, and post explicit pictures and videos of her without her consent in what she believes is an attempt to ruin her modeling career.

Shy Glizzy's ex also claims he texted her best friend, "Imma get her a** beat."

The judge granted a temporary restraining order ... and now Shy Glizzy has to stay 100 yards away from his ex and he's barred from contacting her. The judge also prohibited Shy from posting or distributing any explicit photos or videos he may have of the two.

We reached out to Shy Glizzy's camp ... so far no word back.
