Tying The Knot

Jennifer Lopez was in bridal mode this weekend, and although it was probably more PR than where her heart is at the moment -- it had to get Ben Affleck's attention!!!

J Lo was one of several solo acts Sunday at the American Music Awards, and her wardrobe choice was interesting ... opting for a full-on wedding dress, complete with an elaborate veil.

She did a quick outfit change while singing "On My Way" from her new feature film, "Marry Me" -- which is all about her getting hitched to Owen Wilson -- so, the dress was clearly intended to plug the upcoming movie.

Still, it could be seen in another light ... especially considering how well things are going between her and Ben. They've been public for about 6 months now, and are never too far apart from each other for too long.

With that in mind -- you could totally see this bride's showcase as a hint to something more. And, when you consider what Jen told the Today Show just last week about the possibility of getting hitched again ... all the more reason to believe she's ready for marriage #4.

She told Carson Daly -- when asked about the prospect of walking down the aisle anew -- that she wouldn't rule it out, y'know ... seeing how she's a classic romantic and all.

Ex-Atlanta Hawks forward Chandler Parsons says he's still trying to rebound from the serious injuries he suffered after getting hit by an alleged drunk driver in 2020 -- telling TMZ Sports his recovery process has been "intense."

The 33-year-old NBA player was in his 2017 Rolls-Royce when he was struck by another vehicle on Jan. 15, 2020.

Parsons was seriously hurt in the wreck -- his attorneys say he had a brain injury, disc herniation and a torn labrum -- and the hooper hasn't been on an NBA roster since.

So, when we got Parsons out in L.A. earlier this week -- almost two years since the accident -- we had to ask if he's trying to make an NBA comeback.

"We'll see," Parsons said. "Working out, staying in shape, but trying to still recover from the car crash last year, so we'll see."

Parsons says the recovery process has been hard ... adding, "Still kind of managing everything but still trying to work out."

While the rehab has clearly been a grind ... he's still gotten some great news through it all -- 'cause he and his fiancee, Haylee Harrison, just had a baby!

And, Parsons also shared an update on the couple's upcoming nuptials -- telling us his wedding is set to go down next October in Mexico.

Britney Spears sounds like she has more big plans now that she's a free woman once again ... openly thinking about having another child.

Yep, Brit's doubled down on her baby dreams Tuesday ... posting a picture of a small child standing on their tiptoes and saying ... "I'm thinking about having another baby!!!"

It sounds like Britney might want to have a girl ... at least that's the way her IG caption makes it seem. She wonders if the child in the pic she posted is a girl.

As you know ... Britney has 2 children with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, and they're both teenage boys.

Back in June, during her impassioned testimony, Brit said she wanted to be free to get married to fiance Sam Asghari, and have a baby. She complained the conservatorship was blocking her from doing so, but legally, that just wasn't the case.

In any event, she's definitely got baby on the brain now that the conservatorship is over after 13 years ... and she and Sam are planning their wedding.

She's got at least one family member on board with the idea of more kids ... her sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, "liked" Britney's IG post.

Of course, Brit hasn't liked much coming out of her little sister's mouth lately.

Adele helped a guy propose to his girlfriend in star-studded fashion -- but if they get their way, she could be back for the actual nuptials themselves ... not to mention Oprah too!

We spoke to the couple who got engaged in front of Adele and a whole lot of other celebs on primetime TV, no less ... asking if they'd like to see another round in the presence of the singer -- and, go figure, they say hell yeah.

Check out the interview ... Quentin Brunson and Ashleigh Mann give us the blow-by-blow of how they even got selected for the special moment -- plus, what it was like IN the moment -- and it's about as magical as it appeared on the CBS telecast.

On the issue of tapping Adele again for their special day ... they tell us they'd absolutely love to have her perform at their upcoming ceremony, and not just that -- but they want O herself to officiate!

Unclear if those ladies will oblige ... but considering the history they all share now, it's certainly not outside the realm of possibility. We'll keep tabs one way or another.

Adele's lesson on love is "do as I say, not as I do" -- because she's spilling her guts about the upside of her divorce, while also setting up another innocent couple ... for never-ending love, we're sure.

The singer's got everyone talking love -- the good and bad parts -- after her "Adele One Night Only" special aired Sunday night ... it featured an interview with Oprah, and a scenic concert filmed at L.A.'s Griffith Observatory.

O asked Adele if her new album, "30," is her "divorce album" -- after her split from Simon Konecki -- and she replied, "I think I’m divorcing myself in it."

She also talked about loneliness, adding ... "I’ve spent a lot of time on my own. I stopped drinking. That’s one great way to get to know yourself.”

That being said, Adele proved she's still a sucker for love by helping a guy named Quentin pull off a surprise marriage proposal to his GF, Ashley, in the middle of her concert.

She told the crowd, "I'm a bit nervous in case it doesn't go well. It's also a bit ironic that I'm letting this happen" ... clearly referencing her divorce.

Needless to say, it all went well -- Ashley said yes and was genuinely shocked as hell when Adele suddenly appeared in front of them, and joked ... "Thank God she said yes, 'cause I didn't know who I was going to have to sing this song to next, you or him. Oh, my God, look at her she's so in shock."

Then she serenaded them with "Make You Feel My Love." Very cool moment ... if you're the rom-com type.

Anyway, the 15-time Grammy winner also belted out hits like "Hello," “Someone Like You” and her current No. 1 single “Easy on Me.”

Adele couldn't have felt too lonely when the concert was shot a few weeks ago -- the audience was packed with her celeb pals Leonardo DiCaprio, Drake, Selena Gomez, Lizzo, and Ellen Degeneres.

Paris Hilton continues to ride the wedding train ... and the third night was off the hook!

Paris and her new hubby, Carter Reum, went back to their wedding venue -- the Bel-Air estate of her late grandfather Barron Hilton -- and the party was as splashy as it gets.

The guest list was impressive ... Kate Beckinsale, Ashley Benson, Emma Roberts, Jaden Smith, Sofia Richie, Jasmine Tookes and, oh yeah, Nicky Hilton.

Macy Gray performed, as guests danced late, late into the evening.

There were also leftover pillows from Friday night's bash at the Santa Monica Pier. As one guest told us, "People started stealing other people’s Paris pillows. Like one guy took mine from underneath my jacket and purse and started running away, but I got him!"

This presumably was the last night of celebration, and as weddings go, this one was pretty spectacular.

The wedding, Thursday night, was pretty awesome ... with hundreds of guests partying under a massive tent on the property. As for celebs who hit up the bash ... Kim Kardashian, Nicole Richie, Demi Lovato, Paula Abdul, Kyle Richards, Bebe Rexha, Emma Roberts and Evan Ross.

It was followed up by a more relaxed shindig at the Santa Monica Pier, where guests like Lele Pons, Lance Bass and Diplo played games and rode rides.

Kim Kardashian knows a thing or two about marriage -- but not necessarily a successful one ... which made her wedding advice at a pal's rehearsal dinner all the more hilarious.

During entertainment executive Simon Huck's pre-nuptial feast Friday night, he and his hubby-to-be, Phil Riportella, invited KK to get on the mic and deliver a few words of encouragement. She took 'em up on it ... but noted she might not be the best one to give guidance here.

Check out her jokes ... Kim talks about her 3 failed marriages, and how she hasn't really figured out this "marriage thing" herself.

She even makes some cracks at her own expense -- as well as some at her ex-husbands ... including Kris Humphries, to whom she was married for just 72 days. That said, Kim offers them tips on the actual ceremony itself ... touching on how to get the best "first kiss" shot.

Kim ends by saying she can recognize true love when she sees it, and thinks Simon and Phil will go the distance. Sure enough, she got a big round of applause.

It's interesting ... even though Kim is smackdab in the middle of her own divorce right now, she's very much in wedding mode -- attending Paris Hilton's ceremony, and now Simon's.

Paris Hilton and Carter Reum are keeping the wedding train chuggin' along ... they had an encore presentation of their wedding reception, this time at the famed Santa Monica Pier.

Paris and several hundred guests packed the Pier Friday night. The festivities fired up at around 8 PM, and lots of famous friends were on hand, including Demi Lovato, Lele Pons, Lance Bass and Diplo handled the DJing. Of course, her fam was front and center -- Kathy and Nicky especially made the rounds.

Paris was having a great time, taking photos with lots of people and, of course, mugging all the way!

This party was strictly fun ... with a roller coaster, a ferris wheel and bumper cars at the ready, and everyone took advantage.

There were also the standard Santa Monica Pier games, including Wack-o-mole, balloon popping, a mini basketball game, ring tosses, and on and on. Partygoers who were good enough won stuffed animals.

There were the obligatory street performers on stilts with twirling lighted umbrellas.

Paris, ever the entrepreneur, gave out boxes of her perfume -- Rush and Electrify.

And, this is the best ... plastered above the sink -- "#Forever Hilton Reum, That's Hot, Sliving."

As we reported, Paris tied the knot Thursday with Carter in an opulent ceremony at her grandpa's former estate. Lots of famous folks showed, including Kim Kardashian, Nicole Richie, Demi Lovato, Paula Abdul, Kyle Richards, Bebe Rexha, Emma Roberts and Evan Ross.

Gotta say ... one of the more spectacular celeb weddings, and it's not over. There's a super formal, black-tie shindig back at grandpa's estate Saturday night. We'll have pics Sunday, so stay tuned.

And, in case you didn't see ... check out the tent in the backyard. It's insanely huge.

Paris Hilton is a married woman -- walking down the aisle and saying her "I Do's" -- with Carter Reum in a celeb-studded ceremony ... with plenty more wedding celebrations to come!

Hilton and Reum tied the knot Thursday night at Paris' late grandfather's sprawling Bel-Air estate. Paris looked stunning in an Oscar de la Renta wedding gown, and the setup was immaculate with thousands of white roses lining the aisles and a white rose arch over the couple as they exchanged vows.

Paris' sister, Nicky, served as maid of honor while Tessa Hilton, Halle Reum, Brooke Brinson, Whitney Davis and Farrah Aldjufrie were her bridesmaids. One of Paris' longtime friends, Kim Kardashian, was in attendance and helped Paris get her dress situated. Nicole Richie, who starred in "The Simple Life" with Paris was also there.

After the serious stuff, the guests were treated to a performance by Demi Lovato. BTW ... in true Paris fashion, she had 4 outfit changes throughout the night.

Speaking of over-the-top, so was the guest list, which included Paula Abdul, Kyle Richards, Bebe Rexha, Emma Roberts, Evan Ross and a ton more.

The ceremony kicks off a weekend-long worth of festivities, including a carnival-themed party at The Santa Monica Pier Friday, followed by a black and white tie event on Saturday ... so ya, there's a lot still to come.

The newlyweds got engaged on a trip to a private island to celebrate Paris' 40th back in February, but dated for quite sometime before that.

Reum marked Hilton's 4th engagement ... she never made it to the altar with any of the previous dudes -- who included actor Chris Zylka.

Of course, in true Paris fashion, the whole shindig will be profiled on an upcoming documentary.

Paris Hilton is about to become a married woman ... and tons of celebs are on hand to witness her nuptials.

Paris and her soon-to-be hubby, entrepreneur Carter Reum, are tying the knot Thursday at her late grandfather Barron's Bel-Air estate, where the guest arrivals are in full swing ... and we've got the pics of her star-studded guest list.

Check out the gallery ... folks like Paula Abdul, Kyle Richards, Bebe Rexha, Emma Roberts and Evan Ross are in the house ... with more expected to arrive.

The wedding guests, including longtime friend Kim Kardashian, are soaking in the ceremony at the $60 million estate, where ya can't miss the hot pink and white floral arrangements with the bride and groom's initials.

The ceremony is the first part of Paris' three-day wedding ... next up is a Friday night carnival on the Santa Monica Pier, and the celebration wraps up Saturday with a black-tie event.

Remember ... Paris and Carter got engaged back in February, when he popped the question on a private island to kick off her 40th birthday celebration.

The fourth engagement was the charm for Paris ... her previous fiancés never made it to the big day. She was engaged to Jason Shaw in 2002, Greek shipping heir Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis in 2005 and actor Chris Zylka in 2018.

Ever the reality TV star, Paris documented the behind-the-scenes of her wedding planning for her new reality show on Peacock, "Paris in Love."

There could be another important milestone in the near future for Paris and Carter ... they have been undergoing in-vitro fertilization treatments leading up to the wedding ... so stay tuned for a potential pregnancy.

Marc Anthony was the MVP of a wedding proposal that went down at one of his concerts ... and we've got it all on video!!!

As you can see, Marc stopped the show and brought the couple up on stage ... and the guy drops to one knee and busts out the ring. The girl says yes and they kiss, as the crowd goes wild and Marc raises his hands in the air.

The man who popped the question, Denis Leborgne, tells TMZ ... Marc is his fiancée's favorite singer and she'd never seen him perform live in concert, so he reached out to Marc's production team, Magnus Media, 14 months ago to set up a big proposal.

Denis says the plans were delayed by the pandemic, but once the world opened up and Marc started touring again, he targeted the Nov. 5 show in Estero, FL.

Marc's production team broke down the plan with Denis the day before the show -- MA would point to him in the crowd, at which point he would propose, but Marc went the extra mile.

Denis says when he and his then-girlfriend, Liz, arrived, they were whisked into the VIP section and she was in shock. When the big moment came, Marc didn't just spotlight them in the crowd ... he invited them up on stage in front of everyone!!!

Marc caught everyone off guard -- you can see in the video, the couple has a little bit of stage fright. Denis says his fiancé was so nervous in front of Marc she told him the name of her nationality instead of her name.

At the end of the show, Denis says Marc told them God bless and put his fingers in the shape of a cross ... capping off a night they will never forget.

There might be an explanation for Matthew Stafford's wild interceptions Sunday night ... 'cause Paris Hilton was rocking her big ass engagement ring in a field box at the Rams game -- and that diamond was dancing!!!

Okay, so obviously, the ring had zero impact on the Rams losing big to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday Night Football ... but 40-year-old Paris had her rock on full display as she hit up SoFi Stadium with her fiancé, 40-year-old Carter Reum, to kick off their wedding week.

The game was a bit of a bummer for L.A. -- the Rams lost 28-16 -- but it's clear the underwhelming performance didn't bother the couple as they get ready to get hitched this week.

"Having so much fun seeing the @RamsNFL with my love," Paris said on Twitter. "4 Days to go!"

Paris and Carter even had custom merch to match their wedding date -- with both rocking #11 jerseys.

Naturally, Paris had to show off her ring -- which reportedly cost more than $1 million -- with a pair of leather gloves.

Miles Teller may see some justice after all -- the guy who allegedly clocked him in a bathroom has officially been charged with assault.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Russell Nielsen got hit with one count of 3rd-degree assault in the County of Maui. Prosecutors say he intentionally, knowingly or recklessly caused bodily injury to Miles.

Now, MT didn't look too roughed up or bothered in the immediate aftermath of the tussle earlier this year -- but it looks like he did bring home a shiner from it, which was clearly visible in photos of him once he touched down in L.A. again. So, yeah ... it would appear prosecutors feel Nielsen left enough of a mark to move forward here.

TMZ broke the story ... Miles says he was confronted by two guys in the bathroom of a restaurant while out dining with his wife, Keleigh, which then allegedly escalated into violence. Miles initially made it out like he'd been cornered and jumped by complete strangers ... as did Keleigh.

Of course, since then ... some of the pieces have fallen into place over what exactly happened and why. We've heard from people familiar with the matter Nielsen knows the Tellers through his own wife, who owns a wedding planning company -- and who apparently worked on Miles and Keleigh's ceremony at one point or another in 2019.

Our sources told us Russ was confronting Miles over money he believed they still owed for wedding planning -- some $60k worth ... and after some talking, allegedly took a swing.

We've gotten video of Russell and his wedding planner wife in other heated situations with folks in the past -- and there, too, he appeared to fly off the handle with his boo egging him on.

Paris Hilton says Kim Kardashian is totally invited to her upcoming wedding ... but she's keeping it a mystery if Pete Davidson can roll with as a plus one.

We got Paris leaving Alice + Olivia in Beverly Hills on Friday and our photog asked if Kim got a wedding invite.

As you can see, Paris nods in agreement ... but when we press her about Kim being able to bring Pete as a plus one, Paris gives no indications either way.

Remember, Paris and Kim go way back, so ya gotta imagine Kim was one of the first ones to get an invite ... and the wedding is fast approaching -- it's next Thursday.

As you know, Kim has been hanging out a lot recently with Pete, and after a few dinner dates in New York and a roller coaster ride holding hands in SoCal, they are looking more and more like an item.

Paris might just be deliberating about inviting Pete ... like she is with a lot of other big wedding decisions.

She changed her venue for the umpteenth time recently ... the wedding to fiance Carter Reum is now going down at her late grandfather Barron’s Bel-Air estate and she has yet to pick out a wedding dress ... first reported by Page Six.

It will be interesting to see who, if anyone, Kim brings to Paris' wedding.

Britney Spears wants to get married, buy a house and have kids ... but those plans are all on hold until the judge in her conservatorship case decides if it should end ... TMZ has learned.

Britney and Sam Asghari are engaged, but sources with direct knowledge tell us they have not made any wedding plans because of the impending court hearing. Ditto the prenup ... there's been no movement. And, TMZ broke the story ... they want to buy a house together, but that's on ice as well.

All signs point to the 13-year-long conservatorship coming to an end, but it's not guaranteed. The wild card -- whether the judge orders a mental evaluation. Britney, Jamie and others have urged the judge to end it without such an evaluation ... in fact, so far no one involved in the conservatorship has suggested otherwise.

Nevertheless, with 13 years of mental evaluations on file with the court, it's up to the judge whether to cut Britney free without another one. The judge has an easy out given the parties don't want it, but given the various diagnoses over the years, the judge may want to hear from psychiatrists and other doctors before making the decision.

As for all her plans, Britney is living her life ... hanging with Sam, going on vacation and posting stories about her life on social media.

Kal Penn has come out of the closet in the most surprising of ways -- announcing he's gay in a new book of his, which reveals that he's actually getting married as well.

The actor shared the news through his forthcoming offering, "You Can't Be Serious," via excerpts that leaked over the weekend ... and which is due out this Tuesday. He makes no bones about it ... he's in a relationship with a guy named Josh, whom he's been dating for 11 years.

More importantly, they're on the road to matrimony ... because the couple is engaged. Apparently, Kal met Josh while he was living/working in D.C. under the Obama administration -- for which he worked in an official capacity -- and they've been together since.

He discusses his sexuality this way, "I've always been very public with everybody I've personally interacted with. Whether it's somebody that I meet at a bar, if Josh and I are out or we're talking to friends." He adds, "I'm really excited to share our relationship with readers. But Josh, my partner, my parents, and my brother, four people who I'm closest to in the family, are fairly quiet. They don't love attention and shy away from the limelight."

The guy is getting overwhelming support for finally sharing his truth -- one that's been kept as a secret for years now ... as no one really seems to have known Kal was gay.

He posted a video thanking people for the love he's been getting ... and also shouted out folks whom he sent an early copy of his book to -- with their reaction quotes featured on the back cover.

Kal has traditionally played stoner bros in a lot of the raunchy comedies he's known for, especially from the 'Harold & Kumar' franchise. He's also known for roles from "Designated Survivor," "How I Met Your Mother," "House," "Van Wilder," "Battle Creek" and many more.
