Reunions

Kristin Cavallari brought the beach to The Windy City over the weekend when she invited several OG "Laguna Beach" cast members onto the stage during a live taping of her "Let’s Be Honest" podcast.

KC raved about the experience on Insta ... sharing a snap of herself chatting with her former costars Alex Murrel, Jason Wahler, Jess Revans, Lala Olsen and Talan Torriero onstage in Chicago and sending them love in her caption from the taping, which was part of her Headline Tour.

Noticeably missing were Lauren Conrad and Stephen Colletti -- with whom Kristin notoriously had a dramatic love triangle during the show's three seasons.

Jesse Metcalfe is feeling optimistic about the possibility of a "Desperate Housewives" reboot in the not-so-distant future ... telling TMZ a new chapter "could happen."

We caught up with the actor in Beverly Hills, where he weighed in on the chatter surrounding the rumored revival of the popular ABC drama ... which starred Jesse, along with Teri Hatcher, Felicity Huffman, Marcia Cross, Eva Longoria, and Nicollette Sheridan.

Though the show wrapped its 8-season run back in 2012, the series is as popular as ever, thanks to its availability on streaming services like Hulu and Prime Video.

Boyband stans, rejoice! Backstreet Boys’ AJ McLean and *NSYNC’s Joey Fatone are teaming up for a killer New Year’s Eve performance -- and they're spilling all the tea about it to TMZ.

AJ and Joey dropped by "TMZ Live" today, raving about how their last boyband mash-up was such a hit, it sparked their upcoming show -- AKA a heartfelt love letter to their fans.

You’ve gotta watch the video -- AJ and Joey’s passion is off the charts, and it’s clear their energy is all thanks to the die-hard fans who’ve been vibing to their tunes all these years.

Joey Lawrence and Samantha Cope are showing that love conquers all. The couple, who recently called off their divorce, stepped out publicly for the first time, sending a clear message that things are going great between them.

The pair was photographed at Los Angeles’ trendy Erewhon Market on Friday where they enjoyed quality time with their daughter, Dylan Rose, during a grocery run.

The duo was seen laughing and smiling at each other on the outing. Joey kept it classic and casual in a fitted white t-shirt, jeans, and a baseball cap, while Samantha rocked workout wear.

Joey Lawrence and his estranged wife are working through their differences -- they are rekindling their relationship months after she filed for divorce ... TMZ has learned.

Sources directly connected to the couple tell TMZ ... Joey and his wife of 2 years, Samantha Cope, are back together, and they plan on calling off their divorce.

While it's unclear right now why or when they reconciled ... our sources say it was recent and it's clear they've definitely rebuilt their relationship.

Naughty By Nature's Treach, Vin Rock and DJ Kay Gee haven't been seeing eye to eye for years, but a spark happened in New Jersey last night -- the music turned on and they couldn't help but blaze the microphone!!!

Hip Hop radio vet Miss Jones threw her "Scorpio Soiree" bash last night and her partygoers' jaws dropped when Treach, Vinnie and Kay Gee all hopped on stage together to perform their "Uptown Anthem" ... their classic contribution to Tupac Shakur's iconic film "Juice."

The moment was said to be unplanned ... DJ Bookeem Styles and comedian Mike Shawn understood the severity of the moment, which came as the icing on the cake after NBN's fellow '90s stars Christopher Williams and Monifah hit the stage.

The stars of "Napoleon Dynamite" dropped by a freaking sweet Missouri diner over the weekend, where they gave customers a thrill ... while rumors of a sequel to the iconic flick continue.

John's Waffle & Pancake House co-owner Dona Ramadani tells TMZ ... the tiny Kennett, Missouri joint was slammed Sunday ... when an unassuming Jon Heder, Efren Ramirez and Jon Gries happened to belly up to the counter.

The trio from the immensely popular 2004 comedy film was finally noticed by a customer amid the commotion ... and the fan floodgates opened. But it was all good ... DR tells us the 3 were super chill and granted all snap and autograph requests ... before leaving a "quite large" tip.

Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie are back at it ... ditching their glam socialite life to hustle through the daily grind while filming "The Simple Life" reboot.

The 2000s brats were rocking full Sonic Drive-In gear with name badges in Duarte, California --  they jazzed up their uniforms with their own swag.

PH was strutting in sparkling silver heels and a blinged-out handbag with her name on it, while Nicole rocked some slingback heels and looked equally glam. Both were clearly hiding tight minidresses under those blue aprons.

Justin Timberlake seems to be saying bye, bye, bye to *NSYNC reunion tour talks -- 'cause he's the odd man out in terms of who's willing to talk about it ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Justin and his team have yet to address respective proposals for a possible *NSYNC stadium tour next summer -- this despite the fact Lance Bass, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone and JC Chasez have all responded with interest after different promoters made their pitches 4 months ago.

In other words ... JT is the only one who hasn't engaged in these convos -- and we're told the other guys are disappointed with Justin's radio silence.

*NSYNC's Chris Kirkpatrick is stirring the pot ... telling TMZ, talks about getting the band back together are indeed heating up.

Chris says he's definitely had lengthy discussions with JT, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, and Joey Fatone about the band's future -- and it's just a matter of getting everyone on the same page about what they wanna do next.

He confirms to us they're working on it, and it's not a categorical no to a stage comeback -- much to the delight of tour promoters and music labels eager to cash in on the guys getting back together.

Gwen Stefani and the men of No Doubt set Coachella ablaze last night ... returning to the stage together for the first time in nearly a decade.

Gwen, bassist Tony Kanal, guitarist Tom Dumont and drummer Adrian Young took the stage last night, playing a nostalgic and high-energy set ... performing their first gig together in -- as Stefani herself put it -- "nine f***ing years!"

The band performed an 80-minute set and fans ate it up ... calling the reunion "iconic" and "one of the best performances of the year" on social media.

Conan O'Brien is looking forward to his return to "The Tonight Show" 14 years after his messy exit ... telling TMZ there's no bad blood, and that he's excited to hit the stage again.

We caught up with the comedian outside the Whitby Hotel in NYC Tuesday -- just as he was on his way to film his 'TS' appearance at 30 Rock -- where he told us how he was feeling heading into his highly-anticipated late-night comeback.

As Conan puts it ... he's jazzed to be in front of the camera again in that environment -- as he has nothing but fond memories about his time there, which is interesting considering he was fired by NBC in 2010 ... and rather unceremoniously too.

Juvenile's birthday celebration turned into a mini Cash Money Hot Boy reunion in the Big Easy last night ... because his homie Turk turned up to turn the party out!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained vid from inside the "Back Dat Azz Up" rapper's 49th bash at Treme Hideaway, and it shows Juve and Turk blitzing through a spirited performance of "Welcome 2 Tha Nolia" from the "400 Degreez" album.

Those Dixieland vibes could hold up ... Juvenile recently told TMZ Hip Hop he was working behind the scenes to mend the various rifts within the Cash Money camp, and Turk joining him onstage is the kinda progress fans want to see!!!

It's been a whirlwind celebration for Juve ... we also got ahold of video from his party the night before where he performed alongside Birdman and Mannie Fresh.

We're told CM co-founder Ronald "Slim" Williams also made the night much more special with a rare public cameo.

Juve has all the reason to dust off his old hits for the new generation ... he broke the news to us he was planning on shooting music videos for his old "400 Degreez" records -- and recently made good on that promise by releasing a visual to the title track.

Algunos fans piensan que los chicos de *NSYNC están a entera disposición de Justin Timberlake por estos días. Esto, en medio de las pequeñas colaboraciones que han estado haciendo juntos, pero Joey Fatone dice que eso es mentira.

Nos encontramos con el cantante de la boy band en el aeropuerto de Los Ángeles el lunes y le preguntamos sobre su reciente concierto con Justin en Los Ángeles por el lanzamiento de su último álbum, donde hay una canción en la que aparece *NSYNC y es solo otra de las cosas que han hecho juntos en el último tiempo.

Por supuesto, nuestro fotógrafo le preguntó sobre la posibilidad de que se reúnan propiamente tal como *NSYNC, a lo que Joey respondió lo que hemos venido escuchando desde hace meses, esto es, "que no ahora, pero tal vez un día".

Básicamente, Joey dice que todos están ocupados, así que no se ve una reunión oficial en el futuro próximo, pero reconoce que si se metieran en el estudio de nuevo para hacer algo en 2024, probablemente sonaría muy parecido a su nueva canción "Paradise".

También dice que a *NSYNC no le importa reunirse con Justin Timberlake cuando pueden. Aunque, cuando nuestro camarógrafo le preguntó si están a la espera de que Justin los llame por estos días, como algunos han sugerido por Internet, se apresuró en decir que esa no es la dinámica del grupo para nada.

Joey nos dice que entiende por qué algunos podrían sacar esa conclusión. Recuerden, *NSYNC no solo hizo un cameo en el nuevo álbum de Justin, sino que hizo lo mismo para su nueva película "Trolls", aunque Joey nos asegura que el grupo ha rechazado las peticiones de Justin en el pasado ... Muchas veces, de hecho.

En palabras de nuestro camarógrafo, los chicos de *NSYNC no son "la amante" que Justin puede llamar cuando le dé la gana (o booty call en inglés) como algunos podrían suponer. Joey lo deja muy claro: todos están reservados y ocupados en sus respectivas carreras, así que cuando colaboran es solo porque funciona para todos.

Some *NSYNC fans think all the other guys are at Justin Timberlake's beck and call these days amid these little mini collabs they've been doing... but Joey Fatone says that's BS.

We got the boy band singer at LAX on Monday and asked him all about their recent gig with JT in L.A. amid his latest album drop -- where there's a song that features *NSYNC, serving as just the latest team-up they've done in the studio ... with fans wanting the real thing.

Of course, our photog asked about the prospect of a proper reunion for *NSYNC ... and Joey gave us the standard line of not-now-but-maybe-one-day, which we've heard for months.

Basically ... Joey says everyone's busy, so there's no official coming-together happening in the near future -- but does acknowledge that if they were to get in the studio again for brand new music in 2024, it'd probably sound something very much like their new track "Paradise."

He also says that *NSYNC doesn't mind coming together for JT when they can. Although, when our camera guy asked if they're on call for Justin these days -- as some online have suggested -- he shot that notion down entirely ... saying that's not the dynamic here.

Joey tells us he understands why some might draw that conclusion -- remember, not only did *NSYNC cameo on JT's new album, but did the same for his new 'Trolls' movie too -- he assures us that the group has turned down Justin's requests before ... many times, in fact.

As our camera guy puts it ... the *NSYNC guys are NOT Justin's industry booty call -- despite what some might assume. Joey makes it very clear ... they're all booked and busy in their own respective careers, so when they collaborate ... it's only 'cause it works for everyone.
