ALL MINE
TMZ.com

Paris Hilton's not mincing words anymore -- she says the $2 million engagement ring she got from Chris Zylka is hers to keep ... and he didn't spend a dime on it, anyway.

We got Paris at LAX Wednesday and asked her to clarify recent comments she made, suggesting the jeweler who provided the ring got millions in free publicity ... so it's going to stay with her.

Now she's going a step further, emphatically telling us ... "It's mine." She also says it was free in the first place ... implying Chris didn't actually buy it so he has no claim to it.

As we've told you ... after Zylka proposed to Paris, the story was he bought the ring -- which features a massive 20-carat diamond that took about 4 months to cut.

But, Paris now says that was never the case, and according to her ... she's paid for the ring via social media promotion and whatnot.

Not sure that will hold up in the court of law, but until we hear more from Zylka or the jeweler ... we know where to find the ring.

Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth Marriage Confirmed She Shares Happy 'Wedding' Photos

Miley Cyrus just broke her silence on the rumors that she and Liam Hemsworth got married over the holidays -- it looks like a confirmation ... sealed with a kiss.

The singer shared a few intimate pics Wednesday of the happy couple at what's believed to be their wedding ceremony last weekend in Tennessee. One of the photos is of the presumed bride and groom kissing, and there are a few more of the couple embracing.

The pics come with the caption, "10 years later ....." -- which lines up with when the 2 would have met as they began filming the 2010 Nicholas Sparks movie, "The Last Song."

Sparks even commented on the news by congratulating the couple saying it makes him so happy ... and Miley replied with 3 heart emojis.

And check it out ... Liam's got a wedding ring on.

As we reported ... photos surfaced of a party Sunday night that appeared to be a wedding reception, including one of Miley and Liam cutting what looked like a wedding cake.

There's also video of the Hemsworth bros doing celebratory shots ... with "Mr" and "Mrs" balloons in the background.

And, now it seems like all the clues were legit -- so CONGRATS!!

Terrence Howard Pops the Question ... to Ex-Wife Mira Pak

Terrence Howard wants another go-around at marriage life with his ex-wife, Mira Pak ... so he proposed to her over the weekend and she said yes!!!

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ ... the "Empire" star popped the question Sunday night at Crustacean Beverly Hills in front of friends and family. They were all dressed for the occasion ... Terrence dapper as usual and Mira in an elegant gown.

SHE'S THE ONE

Mira's main accessory was a doozy ... a beautiful 7-carat VVS diamond and rose gold engagement ring commissioned by celeb jeweler Ben Baller. We're told the ring is worth about a million bucks.

After the proposal, Terrence gave an emotional toast in front of Mira and her friends ... saying, "It took me 45 years to find you but now that I have you in my 50th year, I will spend the rest of eternity at your side."

Terrence and Mira go way back -- they were married in 2013 but she filed for divorce in 2015 while she was pregnant with the couple's first kid, Qirin. They rekindled earlier this year and sparks flew again like never before.

This isn't the first time Terrence has married an ex-wife. You'll recall he married Lori McCommas in 1989. They divorced in 2003 but they got married again in 2005 ... only to divorce 2 years later. Terrence was also briefly married to Michelle Ghent from 2010 to 2013.

Second time's a charm, right? Congrats!!!

HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT

Miley's wearing a white dress. And, look closely out the door. There are lights and it looks like there's some sort of formal party outside.

Miley's mom, Tish is also there. We don't see Billy Ray.

Miley and Liam met in 2010 on the set of the Nicholas Sparks movie, "The Last Song." They got engaged in 2012 but broke up 2014. They reconnected the next year and got engaged again, but as we reported they were in no hurry to tie the knot.

Miley and Liam have been through it recently ... their Malibu home burned down in the Woolsey fire last month. It looks like the wedding reception went down at Miley's Tennessee home.

'Vampire Diaries' Star Matthew Davis Gets Hitched ... 3 Hours After Popping Question!!!

Talk about can't wait ... "Vampire Diaries" star Matthew Davis tied the knot 3 hours after he proposed to his GF!!!

Matthew popped the question to Kiley Casciano Sunday in the produce section of Erewhon market in Venice, CA.

Fast forward -- you don't really have to even fast forward -- 3 hours, and they were hitched. It looks like they tied the knot somewhere in Venice.

40-year-old Matthew, who also starred in "Legally Blonde," posted, "When you ask your lover if they want to get married while shopping in the produce section of Erewhon, and 3 hours later you're married on Christmas Eve Eve."

He famously dated Zooey Deschanel back in 2001. It's Matthew's second marriage. He got hitched to singer Leelee Sobieski in 2008 and they divorced 2 months later.

Congrats!!!

Jason Momoa Aquaman's Epic Photobomb ... Plays Wedding Crasher!!!

Jason Momoa is having a ton of fun as "Aquaman" -- taking the onscreen gig to the beach in Hawaii with a huge trident -- and ya gotta see what he did next!!!

Jason quickly got into character when a bunch of kids came up to him Thursday in Oahu and asked him to play with their giant toy trident ... and then he channeled Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson and crashed a wedding!

The kids weren't the only ones making everlasting memories with Aquaman, because Jason and the trident sneaked up behind some unsuspecting newlyweds for an epic photobomb.

Heidi & Spencer Renew Vows for 10th Anniversary ... 'The Hills' Cameras Roll

Speidi went back to the altar to exchange their wedding vows, and just like 10 years ago ... they did it with TV cameras rolling.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt held the ceremony for their 10th anniversary Thursday in Santa Barbara. In attendance, along with friends and family, were "The Hills" alum Audrina Patridge ... and newcomer Mischa Barton.

If you don't know ... the hit reality series is making a comeback in 2019, with Barton joining the cast for "The Hills: New Beginnings." TV cameras were rolling for Speidi's renewal of vows, and we're told the event's expected to be featured in an upcoming episode of the reboot.

It's interesting -- the couple previously renewed their vows in 2010, after Spencer called their televised 'Hills' wedding in 2008 a nightmare ... so he wanted a redo. That ceremony was much more private on a beach in California.

Looks like enough time passed for them to give TV nuptials another shot, and after 10 years and still going strong ... who can blame them?

HYPNOTIZING MOVES!
MEGA

Day 106 of Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas celebrating their marriage nuptials might have been the most interesting -- thanks to the bride's dance moves, and their MC's Notorious B.I.G. impression.

Nick and Priyanka had their third wedding reception Thursday night in Mumbai for Priy's Bollywood industry friends. She danced her ass off while the MC rapped to Biggie's "Hypnotize." Worth noting ... dude with the mic rapped the n-word.

No one was fazed by the lyrics, and everyone seemed more interested in Priyanka doing attempting the Milly Rock. Nick stood there watching ... in admiration, we're sure. Also, he's gotta be tired of dancing at wedding receptions by now.

EPIC CELEBRATION
SplashNews

Priyanka also danced to some traditional Indian music ... some of which looked choreographed.

It's becoming a thing. You'll recall, the families had an intense dance off some 20 days ago when the nuptials began. There was also a Wednesday bash for the media in India.

No word if Nick danced at that one. Ya gotta feel for the guy.

Nick & Priyanka One Last Wedding Hurrah (Maybe) ... Shout-Out to Bollywood!!!

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are giving Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson a run for their money as wedding aficionados, 'cause they've got a 3rd reception -- yes, it's STILL going -- for Bollywood.

Ya gotta believe Nick and Priyanka are tired of striking these poses, but Thursday they gave it one more go with a reception for Priy's Bollywood industry friends. The nuptials began more than 2 weeks ago with TWO weekend ceremonies ... and at least 2 pre and post receptions.

They also had a Wednesday bash for the media in India.

As if they haven't gotten enough attention ... they gave their fans and the media even more to talk about. Yes, everyone's taken note of Nick's hand over his bride's belly. We are NOT saying she's preggo, but we ARE saying ... they know how to start a buzz.

We also know for sure ... there will soon be another round of party pics like these once Thursday's festivities come to an end.

We're not even gonna make a guess as to whether this is THE final stop on their wedding train. Allegedly it is, but ya just never know with these 2.

This is one approach to keeping things fresh -- forever newlyweds!

Paris Hilton Guess What?!? I'm Keeping the $2M Engagement Ring!!!

121918_paris_ring_kal
DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER?
SiriusXM

Paris Hilton's got some bad news for her ex ... the MASSIVE engagement ring Chris Zylka got her is staying with her, so she says, but the law is not on her side.

Paris appeared on SiriusXM's "The Jenny McCarthy Show" and dropped some tea on the $2 MILLION bling ring. She says, for reason, the jeweler received millions of dollars in free publicity ... and then went on to declare the ring stays with her.

Here's the problem ... whether the jeweler received free publicity or not is totally irrelevant. Chris is the one who bought the ring, at least that's the party line. Under CA law, if Paris called off the engagement -- which she did -- Chris has a right to get it back. It's called a gift in contemplation of marriage.

There is a wild card ... if the party line is not true -- in other words, if Chris didn't buy the ring and the jeweler fronted it to Paris -- then he has no right to the ring. But, that's not the way this whole thing was spun. There is one other scenario ... maybe Chris is willing to eat the money and he's never demanded the ring back.

BTW ... the ring's a doozy ... it's a massive 20-carat diamond, which took about 4 months to cut.

Priyanka Chopra & Nick Jonas We're Back In India ... For More Wedding Parties!!!

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas are still celebrating their never-ending wedding ... because the newlyweds are having a SECOND and THIRD wedding reception in India after twice saying "I Do."

It's true, Priyanka and Nick are seriously back in India, and they're keeping the party alive Wednesday with a second helping of wedding reception, this only days after Nick was spotted in New York sitting courtside at the Knicks game.

Nick's racking up some serious frequent flier miles ... and dude seems impervious to jetlag! Hey, guess the Jonas Bro truly loves Priyanka. Talk about dedication.

So, why are Nick and Priyanka having more wedding receptions across the world in her native India? Well, round 2 is for media, and Thursday's round 3 is for Bollywood industry friends. Seems like everyone wants a taste of the star couple.

And, get this ... the hashtag for Wednesday's reception? #NickYankaReception! Has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

It's crazy ... Priyanka and Nick's wedding is seriously stretching over 2 weeks! The festivities started earlier this month in India with a pre-wedding ritual called puja, followed by a traditional Christian wedding ceremony and a Hindu wedding ceremony.

NickYanka ... giving new meaning to #WeddingSzn.

'Survivor: David vs. Goliath' Finale to Feature Live Proposal ... Spoilers Ahead, Obvi

12/26 -- Sources say the proposer decided not to do a public engagement.

Someone's gonna pop the question during the live segment of the 'Survivor' finale later this week -- oh, and by the way ... this story contains spoilers. Sooooo, yeah.

Production sources tell TMZ ... 'Survivor' production staffers working on this year's 'David vs. Goliath' season received an email over the weekend alerting them to some extremely last minute changes for Wednesday's finale episode. The message ... we're gonna have a live proposal on our hands, folks.

We're told the staff was instructed to make some last-minute accommodations for the 3-hour finale -- part of which is live and the other being pre-taped from Fiji -- in anticipation of someone getting on bended knee in front of the live studio audience.

Unclear who's proposing, but we're told 'Survivor' staff members have some guesses. Top of the list ... a guy named Nick Wilson, who's currently in the final 6, has himself a longtime GF, so people think he might make the big ask.

Of course, there's also the potential of two cast members-turned lovers -- Alec Merlino and Kara Kay -- who hooked up after the show ... and broke their NDAs in the process.

'Survivor' brass banned Alec from attending the finale ... but we're told there's speculation this might be a loophole to be welcomed back in a big way.

Stay tuned ...

50 Cent Nicki & BF Movin' Too Fast? Nah, And I'll Tell You Exactly Why

OLD FLAME
TMZ.com

50 Cent has no problem with the pace Nicki Minaj and her new boyfriend seem to be moving at in their relationship ... because they're picking up right where they left off.

We got Fif in Bev Hills Wednesday night where, at first, we asked if he or Starz were planning anything for the family of the "Power" crew member who was tragically killed in a freak accident this week on set. Understandably, he's not ready to talk about it.

Our camera guy then pivots to the 'Queen' rapper, and asks if he thinks it's too soon for her to be talking babies and marriage with her new man/old flame, Kenneth Petty -- a convicted sex offender.

Check out his answer ... sounds like history trumps all when it comes to this kind of stuff, according to him anyway.

Danielle Bregoli Engineers Secret Wedding Proposal ... See, I'm Not Always Bhad

CASH ME ON THE ALTAR
TMZ.com

Danielle Bregoli is a rough-acting teen with a penchant for feuding and trash-talking, so imagine our surprise when we got this video where she plays cupid.

Bhad Bhabie is Down Under for a few concerts and helped a fan at one of her shows propose to his GF.

The sweet moment went down at her sold-out concert Wednesday at the 170 Russell venue in Melbourne. We're told it had been planned for some time ... the fan had reached out to Bhad Bhabie's camp and she greenlit the plan.

Bhabie brought them both onstage after a song. The GF was shocked when her guy got down on bended knee and popped the question.

It appears someone made it rain right in the middle of his proposal.

BTW ... she said yes.

Nicki Minaj Talkin' Wedding Bells & Babies ... With New Boyfriend

Nicki Minaj's relationship with her new boyfriend is way more serious than we thought -- 'cause we now know she's considering the married and mom life with him.

Sources close to the "Queen" MC tell us Nicki and Kenneth Petty have already had the marriage and baby talk -- this after only a couple months of dating. We're told Nicki is serious about the prospect of marrying Kenneth and having his kids ... because she believes he's that good a man.

As for that whole convicted sex offender thing -- among other crimes -- we're told Nicki couldn't care less.

She certainly isn't shy about showing off her new boo either -- Nicki posted a video of them working out together in the gym.

QUEEN & KING

As we reported ... Nicki feels Kenneth has changed for the better since he was young -- when he was convicted of first-degree attempted rape as a 16-year-old. He's an old flame from back then, and we're told she's as happy as ever now that they've reconnected all these years later.

Nicki seems to believe Kenneth was falsely convicted ... he was dating the victim at the time and claims the girl's mother had it in for him and made false allegations.

Hillary Clinton Still Getting Down At Billionaire Daughter's Indian Wedding

Hillary Clinton's one big party animal -- it's just what it takes to hang when you're attending a traditional Indian wedding ... that costs $100 million!

The former Presidential nominee just arrived at a wedding reception Wednesday evening in Mumbai for the ongoing celebration of Isha Ambani's nuptials. The bride's father, Mukesh Ambani, is the richest person in India with a reported net worth of around $42 billion. The Clintons are friends of the Ambani family, but Hillary attended with Huma Abedin ... not Bill.

As we reported ... Beyonce performed at the shindig earlier this week but attendees didn't just get down to Bey. A lot of Bollywood music was blaring, which brought out Hillary's best moves. Former Secretary of State John Kerry (who clearly didn't get the memo on attire) also joined the fun.

Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas were also seen arriving at this reception. Remember, traditional Indian wedding celebrations can last up to a week. Priyanka and Nick survived theirs -- we're guessing the Ambani fam will too.
