Rylee Arnold's relationship with USC football player Walker Lyons is just days old ... but it's clearly going well -- as she tells TMZ Sports she's "loving life" with her new man!!

Arnold and Lyons went Instagram official shortly after the "Dancing With The Stars" pro caught one of his Trojans games last month ... and it's apparently been smooth sailing ever since -- as Arnold was nothing but smiles when talking about the guy this week.

While out running errands in Beverly Hills, Arnold told us she's "super happy" with her tight-end love interest ... and called their dynamic "really fun."

Rihanna may no longer be work, work, work, working on new music ... issuing a coy update about her status in the industry -- and sending fans into a tizzy.

We discussed the shocking statement from RiRi on "TMZ on TV," where the crew speculated whether or not the pop star really announced her retirement from music with a subtle statement.

Some were more convinced than others, with a couple members of the team taking Rihanna at her word ... and acknowledging she doesn't have to perform anymore given her new beauty and fashion empire.

James Van Der Beek says he and his wife are completely done having kids ... admitting he went under the knife and got a vasectomy -- right before he was diagnosed with cancer.

The actor sat down for an interview with People -- published Saturday -- where he talked about his family life ... including the huge brood of kids he shares with his wife of more than a decade, Kimberly.

James says the couple -- who has six kids -- has been blessed with great fertility ... and, they know the only way to ensure they were finished on the kids front was for James to have a doctor snip him down there.

The biggest stars from New Jersey are ready to shake up the reality TV scene in their state ... 'cause the stars of "Jersey Shore" linked up with "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" for a star-studded crossover.

The "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation" team was filming at TAO -- a club in NYC last night ... and, they brought in a few other New Jersey-based stars to film alongside them.

Check out the clip obtained by TMZ ... Snooki's chatting with Melissa and Joe Gorga -- two of the biggest names from 'RHONJ' -- all while cameras roll.

Sally Field was not having much of a fun birthday on Wednesday ... which was on full display when she was snapped trashing her Kamala Harris signs after Donald Trump won reelection.

Looking somewhat dejected, Sally tossed the signs into the trash cans outside her Los Angeles home ... clearly showing she was at best, sad -- at worst, pissed -- over DT's victory.

Back in August, Sally posted on IG when Harris officially accepted the nomination ... "I've not been on social media. Not since it became public toilet paper for our former crook of a President. But 'hope is making a comeback.' So here I am. This is me. And this is my dog, Dash. Buckle up,"

SF was among the cavalcade of stars who put their full support behind Kamala ... endorsements that clearly did nothing to move the needle -- as evident in DT also winning the popular vote this time around.

One celeb who backed Trump -- Kid Rock -- definitely celebrated DT's win ... and made a surprising request to his fans and fellow Trumpers ... let's all just get along now!

In a video he posted to IG ... KD dropped the act and appeared as himself, Robert Ritchie ... and told his fans it's time to come together as a country and let go of animosity for one another.

"We must remember that most of our left-leaning friends are good people who want the same things in life as we do, but simply think differently on how to get there," he implored.

Some liberal women are on a sex strike to punish men over Donald Trump being reelected president ... but it might not work out how they envision -- so says Farrah Abraham.

Here's the skinny ... Dems seemed to think a possible DT defeat would be a referendum on abortion rights. And as that did not happen, some women are calling for a sex strike along the lines of "4B," a trend that began in South Korea in 2018 in the wake of America's #MeToo movement.

Farrah tells TMZ ... she is all for women choosing to be abstinent, and that they should have bodily autonomy -- but a sex strike simply over DT's win is pretty lame.

Taylor Swift had a LOOOOONG dinner Friday night with pal Zoë Kravitz, and at the end of the evening it kinda showed!

TS and Zoe hit up Chez Margaux in NYC's Meatpacking District. The photo agency says they were there for 8 hours ... seems a little overblown, but it was apparently a long night.

On her way out, the superstar seemed a bit unsteady ... after all, how could wine not have been on the menu for a great French meal!?!

You'da thunk Bill Maher would have ended his show Friday night with reasons why the Dems lost the election, but he talked about something way more urgent ... we're all going to die because of plastics.

The 'Real Time' host laid it out in stark terms ... the oceans are dying because there really is a floating island of garbage -- actually more than one -- but it has nothing to do with the MSG insult comic.

There's a garbage patch, for example, in the Pacific 3 times the size of France, and a huge portion is made up of plastics. As Bill says, plastics are now in everything ... our soil, our foods, even our Kardashians!

Well, the election is behind us ... at least for some. And Jason Kelce may have gotten the message, but did his brother? So we gotta ask ...

Zach Bryan's ex Brianna LaPaglia (AKA Brianna Chickenfry) is accusing her former country star beau of emotional abuse ... claiming he even offered her a $12 million NDA after their split.

We broke down the drama on "TMZ Live" ... with Harvey and Courtney theorizing what could've happened for the "Barstool Sports" personality to allegedly be offered this large a sum.

Check out the clip ... our team discussed everything Brianna shared on her "BFFs" podcast, including accusations Zach got jealous after the podcaster showed love to rival country singer, Morgan Wallen.

We doubt a reconciliation is in Briana and Zach's future after all of this!!!

Feast your eyes on this glamorous shot of actress Zoey Deutch! Do you think you've got what it takes to take on the minor switch-ups in the two pics? Put your best foot forward and give it all you got!

Earlier this week in NYC, "The Suite Life on Deck" star took a stroll into the Kelly Clarkson show, and she wasn't messin' around with her fashion game! Sporting some stilettos and a black n' white dress, Zoey showed off her toned stems, but can you find the changes?

Jay Cutler isn't letting his recent DUI arrest keep him from having a good time ... the former NFL star made an appearance at the recent "Yellowstone" premiere.

The retired quarterback and his girlfriend, Samantha Robertson, stepped out in New York City Thursday evening, where they stopped by the party celebrating the highly anticipated return of the Paramount Network hit.

While Samantha posed with a wine glass in her hand, Jay was notably empty-handed for the pic ... which was smart given his recent arrest.

7:37 PM PT -- Virginia Madsen, who starred in the 1992 "Candyman" film with Tony Todd, has shared her grief amid the news of the actor's passing ... revealing she was at a loss for words.

In a video posted to Instagram, the actress remembered Tony as her "beloved" costar ... fighting back tears while thanking fans for their "kind wishes."

She expressed a similar sentiment in the caption, adding ... "The great actor Tony Todd has left us and now is an angel. As he was in life. More later but I can’t right now. I love you."

Tony Todd -- best known for his title role in the "Candyman" horror film franchise -- has died, TMZ has confirmed.

His rep, Jeffrey Goldberg, tells us ... Tony died of natural causes at his Marina del Rey home in Los Angeles on Wednesday night. Goldberg did not disclose an exact cause of death.

Todd was a longtime actor with an impressive list of credits, landing parts in movies such as "The Crow," "The Rock," "Final Destination," "Platoon and "Night of the Living Dead."

Many in Hollywood were disappointed with the election outcome, after Donald Trump emerged as the winner against Kamala Harris ... and it looks like some of those stars took a stroll to cope this week.

Anne Hathaway attempted to keep a low profile, wearing a neutral navy baseball hat, shades, and a white ensemble as she took some time for herself the day after the election in New York.

Andy Cohen on the other hand ... was in low-key mode after Trump's big win, taking a call while out in NYC. The "Watch What Happens Live" host donned a sweatshirt, shorts, and flip-flops after grabbing himself a venti Starbucks coffee ... a much-needed boost, it seems.

Kim Kardashian and Glenn Close appear to be 2 fashionable peas in a pod on the set of their new show ... Ryan Murphy's upcoming legal drama series, "All's Fair."

Check it out ... Kim and Glenn are spotted filming a scene for the new show, in which both the reality TV legend and the Oscar-nominated actress are decked out in couture from head to toe.

Though, this isn't a style departure for Kim ... as the businesswoman is known for rocking a number of high-profile pieces.

Actress and former Miss Dominican Republic Massiel Taveras has a lot to say about the 2024 presidential election outcome -- and she’s letting TMZ know she’s thrilled with the results.

Catch the video -- Massiel’s all but waving a Team Trump flag with her celebratory energy ... she's not holding back on why she thinks Kamala Harris' star-studded support squad did little to help her campaign.

Massiel dives deep ... saying she thinks with God on your side, all the Hollywood backing in the world doesn’t matter.
