Kim Kardashian knows how to throw a birthday party ... treating her daughter North and her friends to a day out in New York City -- with LaLa Anthony by her side!

The reality television star hit the NYC streets Saturday with the whole birthday crew in tow ... clad in a sporty mom get-up -- an athletic look ready to take on the concrete jungle. LaLa's right there too, rocking a crop top and tossing an arm around North's shoulder.

Speaking of North ... she turned 11 on Saturday and is sporting a commemorative t-shirt to mark the occasion with a pair of bright pink "I Heart NY" pajama pants -- a matching outfit it looks like all the birthday attendees have on.

Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan is convinced "The Simpsons" named Springfeld's fave brew after him, but his theory is flat, 'cause Duff Beer was coined for a whole different reason ... TMZ has learned.

Here's the deal ... the rocker recently told Stereogum he is, indeed, Duff Beer's namesake ... going so far as to say the show reached out back in the day to clear it, and he's bent out of shape he got cut out of merch profits. DMK repeated this belief in his autobiography, too.

But, 'Simpsons' OG producer-writer Jay Kogen tells TMZ Duff's dead wrong for 2 reasons ... one of which he's gonna find very upsetting.

First, Jay says there actually wasn't any deep reasoning behind choosing the name Duff.

Bad Bunny's concert saw a shooting plot thwarted, President Biden saw his dog bite Secret Service agents and folks didn't see a mistake on the Chiefs championship rings before sending them to the team ... all this and more on TMZ TV Hot Takes.

On "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles detail the would-be race war mass shooting threat that targeted BB's Atlanta concert, and how it was stopped before it began.

Woody Harrelson became public enemy number one when he walked onto the "Cheers" set, and everyone wanted to "kick his ass" ... so says the show's star, Ted Danson.

Ted and Woody sat down for an interview on the "Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend Podcast" to discuss "Cheers" ... and, they dove into Woody joining the show during season 4 as the new bartender -- also named Woody.

Ted says no one really had a problem with Woody ... except he happened to be about 10 years younger than the rest of the cast -- and, they decided to try and knock the guy down a few pegs.

Alexia Nepola's divorce is far from final ... 'cause she and her estranged husband are getting it on despite their split -- and, there are no boundaries on their intimacy it seems.

The 'Real Housewives of Miami' star revealed the nitty-gritty details of her still-romantic relationship with hubby Todd on Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge's "Two T's in a Pod" podcast released Saturday.

On the pod, Nepola says she and Todd have done just about everything under the sun since he filed for divorce at the end of last month ... adding the two still have strong feelings for one another.

Theo James has clearly ended up on some s****y first dates ... 'cause the guy says he once went out with a girl who ended up taking a dump in his bathtub!

The actor recently sat down with Entertainment Weekly for a panel discussion and played Two Truths and a Lie -- a game where a person says two true statements and one lie and others guess which is which -- and he said a woman once left him a brown reminder of their time together.

The way Theo tells the story ... it was back during his university days, and he and this girl hit the town before heading back to his place where they had some "fun" -- you can probably read between the lines on your own.

Joe Alwyn's finally speaking on what led to his breakup with Taylor Swift ... though he's still keeping details close to the chest.

The actor spoke to The Sunday Times in an interview published Saturday when he was asked whether he's listened to Taylor's new album "The Tortured Poets Department" -- which many believe contains references to their relationship.

Alwyn sorta sidesteps the question here, instead saying he hopes people can understand how difficult ending a six-year-long relationship -- one he refers to as both "loving" and "fully committed"

O.J. Simpson went to ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson's condo the night of the murders in a Ford Bronco, but there's evidence that the Bronco wasn't his.

TMZ has a new documentary on Tubi -- 'O.J. How He Really Did It' -- in which Harvey Levin, then a reporter at KCBS-TV in L.A., shares never-before-heard stories about the murders.

One thing that always puzzled him ... how is it that O.J. would have been soaked in blood after brutally stabbing 2 human beings to death, yet his Ford Bronco had relatively little blood inside the vehicle?

Father's Day should be a time to rethink parenting so kids aren't running the show at home ... so grouses Bill Maher!

The "Real Time" host bore in on the whole "Gentle Parenting" movement, where parents treat kids like right-thinking adults. Turns out cow-towing to children does great harm to the kids parents think they're nurturing. Bill notes the run-of-the-mill high school student has the same level of anxiety as a psychiatric patient in the early 1950s. Nuff said.

Mr. Maher argues the OG traditional dad, or trad dad, is the answer. Go back to treating kids like they are -- little people without judgment who need discipline and preparation for real life.

Darren Criss really stepped in it as he ventures into fatherhood -- at least that's what the internet is saying after learning what he named his baby ... who's most definitely a Bro.

The "Glee" star is being low-key roasted on social media for the unique baby name for his newborn boy -- with folks having a field day at his family's expense ... all because of the moniker that's on his birth certificate.

Darren and his wife, Mia, welcomed their second child on June 3 ... and Darren recently revealed his son's full name ... Brother László Criss.

Amber Portwood's fiancé, who was reported missing, might be several thousand miles away from his last known whereabouts ... TMZ has learned.

Bryson City PD Asst. Chief Wayne Dover tells TMZ ... Gary Wayt, who's been engaged to the "Teen Mom" star for the last few weeks, is still considered a missing person -- but there's currently no reason to suspect foul play or a potential suicide.

In fact, we're told there's been a reported sighting of Gary this week -- the MTV personality's beau allegedly popped up Tuesday morning in Weatherford, Oklahoma, according to Asst. Chief Dover ... who adds, the person witnesses claim was Gary did not seem in distress and had a calm and nonchalant demeanor.

Jason Oppenheim is opening the door for Christine Quinn to come back to his Netflix show "Selling Sunset" ... saying he's down with her returning, but the buck doesn't stop with him.

We got Jason in L.A. Thursday -- and our photog asked him if a recent reunion with Christine and other cast members is a sure sign she's gearing up to make a 'Sunset' comeback.

Alexander Morris is elaborating on his alleged hospital experience -- this just days after suing the facility ... and now, we're getting the full scope of what he claims happened.

We spoke to the Four Tops singer on "TMZ Live" Thursday ... and he claims he was sent for a psych exam at Michigan's Ascension Macomb-Oakland Hospital last April -- where he alleges that white staffers, doubting his fame, put him in a straitjacket.

Alexander says instead of receiving proper care at the hospital after falling ill over the Easter weekend, he was left in the hallway for 3 hours ... this was detailed in his lawsuit, BTW.

Camille Winbush is far from the little girl who played Bernie Mac's daughter -- something her OnlyFans followers know all too well -- and now she's clapping back at folks shading her new gig.

Ironically, the former 'Bernie Mac Show' star admitted the trolls hit the nail on the head with at least one assumption -- she tells Comedy Hype, "When people say, 'Oh, those Bernie Mac checks must have dried up,' I'm like, 'From a job 20 years ago when I was a 12-year-old? Yeah.' Like, duh."

Camille said her residuals still trickle in, but they're not exactly booming, and certainly aren't enough to make a living ... hence, why she started her OF page in 2021.
