Michael Jordan Parties On $80 Million Yacht ... with Basketball Court!

He shoots, he scores ... ON WATER!!!

Michael Jordan's 2019 is off to a GREAT start -- he's hanging out on an $80 MILLION super yacht off the coast of St. Barths ... and the ship has a basketball court onboard!!!

Seriously ... this thing's amazing.

Unclear if MJ is ponying up the $840,000 per week it costs to charter the 230-foot floating mansion -- but he's reportedly worth around $1 BILLION, so it's not like he can't afford it.

Either way, this ship is paradise on water -- with 8 cabins, a bar, dining room, full gym, deck Jacuzzi ... and, oh yeah, the basketball court!!

The yacht also boasts a state-of-the-art audiovisual system, satellite TV and fast WIFI ... so you can still check your Instagram from the middle of the ocean.

So yeah, it's still good to be Michael Jordan.

Katie Holmes to Jamie Foxx I Don't Wanna Wait ... Takes the Lead Jetskiing

Katie Holmes and Jamie Foxx are on the waterfront ahead of New Year's Eve -- and on the issue of jet skis ... Katie's leading the charge into battle.

The couple mounted some WaveRunners Saturday in Miami, and made a splash cruising around Biscayne Bay ... where Katie served as the pilot, and Jamie her trusty #2. She was ahead of him for most of the ride, and really seemed to have a handle on things.

KH and JF have been in Florida on a romantic getaway since at least Friday, where they've been staying in a luxury yacht ... just the two of them, as far as we can tell.

Going out as a couple has been a gradual progression for them since last September, when they first went public with their longtime relationship. Since then, they've been seen out together more and more ... and this is just their latest display of being boo'd up.

Happy New Year, you two. 'Til next time.

Scarlett Johansson & Colin Jost Tight in Argentina ... It's Gettin' Serious!!!

Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost have a hell of a weekend update ... PDAing in Argentina's capital city the day after Christmas.

The 'Avengers' and 'SNL' stars are in the touristy town of Palermo in Buenos Aires. They were total normies ... sightseeing, holding hands and walking arm in arm. It seemed pretty intimate ... nevermind their bodyguard.

The couple spent Xmas weekend in El Calafate, where they took in the massive Perito Moreno Glacier ... a must-see when visiting the southern part of Argentina.

As we first reported ... Scarlett and Colin started dating back in June 2017 and things really heated up during a romantic dinner a couple weeks later.

Pretty clear this flame's not getting doused anytime soon.

Mark Wahlberg No Holiday Hangover ... Still Buff in Barbados

Mark Wahlberg's beach bod is the gift that keeps on giving the whole year.

The "Instant Family" star is enjoying the holidays with his family in Barbados at the Sandy Lane Hotel, and hit the Caribbean sand Wednesday for some Boxing Day fun in the sun and a cool dip in the sea.

Mark's muscles are already an eye-catcher, but even more so when matched with his colorful trunks and cross necklace bling.

And, one thing's for certain -- dude knows how to do the day after Christmas right.

Scott Eastwood Close Encounters of the Orca Kind ... Maybe Too Close?

120618_scott_eastwood_kal
WHOA, WILLY!

Scott Eastwood had a very up close and personal run-in with a couple killer whales while paddle boarding down in Mexico -- and while it's incredible to see ... it's also kinda scary.

Clint Eastwood's son posted a video of himself out in the waters of Baja California Sur, where he says he and a pal stopped for lunch before paddling out to sea after hearing some orcas in the water.

Scott says they thought the wild beasts had disappeared by the time they got out there -- but, apparently, some whale noises and splashing around made 2 orcas circle back ... and, boy, did they get close. Check out the clip -- Scott and co. could've touched 'em if they wanted.

It's a majestic scene for sure, but ya gotta wonder how risky the dip with the whales really was. While orcas aren't known to attack humans ... it's always a possibility they could.

Worth it? Scott sure seems to think so.

David Guetta GF Shows Off Bod & Diamond Rock!!!

David Guetta showing off his abs and his hot bikini-clad girlfriend would normally be enough to focus on, but then his GF busted out a crazy diamond that's gonna get everyone talking ... ENGAGEMENT!!!

The EDM superstar and actress Jessica Ledon hit up Miami Beach Monday with their French bulldog. DG rocked his hard physique while she strutted in a blue bikini ... curves on full display.

She kept it classy too ... accessories around her neck, wrists and, of course, that ring finger.

David and Jessica haven't announced anything, but that ring's sure to set off a bunch of alarms. For what it's worth ... the ring looks like a doozy.

David and Jessica have been dating since 2015 and they both still look totally smitten. Just look at the hot pics ... it's easy to see why!!

Farrah Abraham Not Sweatin' Boxing Challenge Just Sweating the Maldives!

Farrah Abraham knows a match made in heaven when she sees one -- and it ain't in a boxing ring ... it's her butt and a remote sandy paradise.

The 'Teen Mom' star's extended vacay in the Maldives doesn't require much in the way of clothing --she's rocking a severely bare minimum white crocheted bikini here. Farrah jetted off to the islands last weekend with her daughter after backing out of her celebrity boxing match with Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander.

Farrah trash talked promoter Damon Feldman but, as we first reported ... she's got a new offer from "Teen Mom 2" star Kailyn Lowry to get in the ring.

Unclear if Farrah will accept. After all, boxing would require putting on more clothing.

Emily Ratajkowski Whale Tail Vacay!!! Takes Teeny Tiny Bikini Pics

If ya got the Monday blues, Emily Ratajkowski in white -- a super tiny white bikini -- is exactly what the doctor ordered.

Emily's soaking up some sun in Sydney right now, lounging around with a gal pal who, TBH, is holding her own next to Em. Still, when it was time to snap their personal pics ... you can figure out who posed and who played photog.

The barely-there bikini Emily's rocking leaves VERY little to the imagination, and based on the pics -- click through the gallery -- she wanted to pay homage to the classic 2005 Jessica Alba pose.

'Memba that? Jessica was at it again in 2013 ... and all her stretching clearly inspired Emily.

We're sure Jess would be proud of Emily's work here. We ALL are, really.

Kevin Hart My Wife's Bikini Bod ... ¡¡¡Ay Dios Mio!!!

Kevin Hart is one of the world's highest-earning celebs with nearly $60 million in 2018 ... but even he has to pull Instagram hubby duties.

The comedian and his wife, Eniko, hit up a luxury resort in Punta Mita, Mexico ... where their star-studded party included the likes of Ludacris and IndyCar driver Marco Andretti. But, it's pretty damn clear the show belonged to Eniko.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Kevin made sure he got all the right angles ... a responsibility every boyfriend/husband ought to take seriously while on vacay with bae. For Kevin and Eniko, this vacation's come full circle.

Remember, the couple hit up Cabo in July 2017 ... when she was about 6 months pregnant with their first child. She later gave birth to Kenzo Kash, whose first birthday is next week.

It's a good bet Kevin and Eniko will be back in the states just in time to celebrate.

Kim Kardashian West All Aboard the Elephant Express!!

Kim Kardashian West is no queen of the jungle ... but certainly looks the part riding a giant elephant during her family trip to Bali.

Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Scott and their kids all made the trip last week. The group was flown to an elephant sanctuary on a private helicopter where they spent several hours and got up close and personal with the gentle giants.

You can see from the pics, Kim didn't hesitate to get on for a quick ride around the park ... and Kourtney joined in too.

Kanye wasn't on the trip -- we're told he stayed back because of work commitments.

The family is back home now, but 'KUWTK' cameras captured most of the vacation, so there's plenty more to come.

DJ Khaled 'It's Like Bad Boys 3' ... Water Rescue In Miami

kal_v2
MAN DOWN!

DJ Khaled just auditioned for the upcoming 'Bad Boys' trilogy, sort of ... because the music mogul helped save his buddy who fell off a Jet Ski.

The wild water rescue went down Thursday in Miami, when Khaled and co-producer Ayo Juan encountered some trouble on the high seas.

Juan fell off his Jet Ski, and Khaled assisted authorities in a scene perfect for Martin Lawrence and Will Smith's new flick -- which, oddly enough, Martin and Will announced earlier in the day in an IG post. Talk about crazy timing.

RETURN TO GREATNESS

Saving his buddy was a no-brainer for DJ Khaled ... who wasted no time hauling ass over to Ayo and making sure he didn't drown. Luckily, Ayo was not injured and everyone made it back to land.

Sofia Richie Abs-olutely Stunning ... In Leopard Bikini

Sofia Richie's looking purrrrrty Down Under ... so good, in fact, Scott Disick even snapped ... snapped a ton of pics.

Sofia showed off her hard bod Monday while rocking this leopard print bikini aboard a yacht in Australia. No question about it ... the show belonged to Sofia, and Lord Disick agreed -- he practically bowed down to her grace.

Scott was recently in Bali with the Klan. There was no interaction with Kourtney -- at least as far as we could see -- but that clearly doesn't bother Scott.

Nickelodeon Sued Over Child's Death ... At Resort Swimming Pool

Nickelodeon is being sued over the death of a child at a resort it promoted on the network.

The boy was swimming underwater back in May in the pool at the Nickelodeon Hotel in the Dominican Republic. The boy was swimming in the pool when his head became lodged between the legs of a Dora the Explorer statue.

The lifeguard on duty was standing near the area but did not see the boy in distress. The boy's stepdad noticed the child was missing and frantically asked the lifeguard for help. The stepdad and the lifeguard dislodged him and pulled him out of the water. They attempted to resuscitate him but couldn't.

The boy died ... the result of drowning.

The resort was promoted on the network and the parents saw the ad and decided to go there for vacation.

Danny Amendola Hangin' with Olivia Culpo Look-alike

Miami Dolphins star Danny Amendola has the weekend off -- so he hit the beach with a hot chick in a bikini.

The girl in the photos isn't Danny's girlfriend, Olivia Culpo -- she was in L.A. the day before these were taken. Look, it's not like they're hooking up here ... they're just talking close and having fun.

We don't know who this other woman is. Maybe they're just friends and nothing's going on here. Either way ... she's definitely a cutie.

FUN IN THE SUN
MEGA

Remember ... Olivia and Danny just got back together earlier this summer after breaking up a few months before that. They've been on-and-off (but mostly on) these past 2 years.

Things seemed to be going great for the recently reconciled couple these past few months, as Olivia's been posting tons of photos and videos of the two of them together on social media. They even hit up a beach hand-in-hand last month very similar to this one.

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, Jen Harley We're Back ... After Black Eye Incident

9:00 AM PT -- We just got these photos of Ronnie and Jen all over each other during her birthday weekend. The co-dependent couple is clearly back together, despite the domestic violence.

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro and Jen Harley seem like they're together again, despite black eyes and police reports.

Ronnie and Jen are both in Florida this weekend, and both have both posted videos though none of them show the 2 together. This is Jen's birthday weekend.

102818_ronnie_ortiz_agro_kal_2
WE SEE EYE-TO-EYE AGAIN

As you know ... their relationship has been downright violent at times. She showed up last week at his home, demanding to see their daughter ... just days after Ronnie posted a pic of a shiner around his eye.

As we reported, our law enforcement sources tell us Ronnie filed a battery report with cops, naming Jen as the culprit.

Scott Disick I'm Cool in the Bali Heat ... Vacationing with Kourtney

Scott Disick joined Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, his daughter Penelope, and North on a family trip to Bali.

Scott's chillin' on the yacht ... with no Kardashian in sight, but he don't care.

Kourtney was hanging with Penelope a lot ... but no Scott in sight.

Scott going on vacay with the Klan is a clear sign of peace ... despite the fact there is little interaction, at least in the photos.

North West was also on board ... who had lots of playtime with Penelope. Kim, Khloe, and True are also on the yacht ... and although we don't see it, we're going to bet the farm that cameras are recording the trip for "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

There's no sign of Kanye on the yacht.
