Beyoncé is letting all the world know ... she's a "Swifty," too!!

Queen Bey made a surprise, unannounced appearance at Taylor Swift's now legendary premiere for her "Eras" tour concert film at The Grove in L.A. Wednesday night.

Taylor looked stunning in a $12,000 blue dress created by none other than Oscar de la Renta. And Beyoncé was the epitome of cool in her all-black bodysuit, chrome bustier and dark sunglasses.

Both superstars gave thousands of "Swifty" fans an even bigger treat -- posing together for photos on the red carpet in front of a wall of throwback images of Taylor and a huge ad for her movie.

Everyone then piled into the theater to watch the movie -- of course, Beyoncé and Taylor had a front-row seat and they proved it by posting an Instagram video of themselves sitting next to each other. Beyoncé playfully tossed popcorn on the ground as Taylor stuffed a kernel into her mouth.

In the caption, Taylor partly wrote, "I'm so glad I'll never know what my life would've been like without @beyone's influence. The way she's taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms."

TMZ first reported ... Taylor was planning to pop up at the premiere after questions swirled about whether she would attend. The music icon took selfies with 2,200 of her excited "Swifties," who were lucky enough to be handpicked to watch the movie with her.

What's more .. the security was totally insane at The Grove, which shut down for the first time in 2 decades for the event.

Hundreds of guards were posted outside the shopping center to keep an eye on things. Barricades were also set up all around the perimeter.

And everything went according to plan.

Don't forget ... Taylor moved the release date for the film from Friday to today. Get your tickets now, Swifties!!!

One very lucky Californian is waking up a billionaire ... matching all numbers to win the incredible $1.765 billion Powerball jackpot.

The lucky combination in Wednesday night's drawing was 22, 24, 40, 52, 64 ... and the Powerball number was 10. As for where it was sold -- the winning ticket reportedly came from Midway Market & Liquors in Frazier Park, California ... about 75 mi. north of L.A.

The mystery ticket holder can either choose to get their $1.765 billion payout in installments over the next 30 years or can opt for a cash prize of $774.1 million.

In an interview with KCAL, one of Midway Market's employees said he believes the winner will be someone who plays the lottery "religiously" ... as most of their clientele buy tickets all the time.

Shockingly enough, the winning Powerball ticket for the drawing's four largest jackpots in history have all come out of California ... the last was in July for $1.08 billion.

As we reported, the largest Powerball drawing in history, at $2 billion, was won by Edwin Castro in late 2022 in California. Castro opted for a cash payout of $997.6 million from the jackpot and has purchased at least one very impressive home in the time since.

Un californiano muy afortunado acaba de despertar siendo multimillonario. Le acertó a todos los números para ganar la increíble suma de 1.765 millones de dólares de Powerball.

La combinación afortunada en el sorteo del miércoles por la noche fue 22, 24, 40, 52, 64 y el número Powerball fue el 10. En cuanto a donde se vendió, el billete ganador al parecer vino de Midway Market & Liquors en Frazier Park, California al norte de Los Ángeles.

El misterioso titular del billete puede optar por obtener su pago de $1.765 millones en cuotas durante los próximos 30 años o puede optar por un premio en efectivo de $ 774,1 millones.

En una entrevista con KCAL, uno de los empleados de Midway Market dijo que cree que el ganador será alguien que juega a la lotería "religiosamente", ya que la mayoría de su clientela compra boletos todo el tiempo.

Sorprendentemente, el boleto ganador de Powerball (el más grande) se han entregado en California, el último fue en julio por $1.08 mil millones.

BIGFOOT IS REAL!!!!! That, or is this just another silly hoax ... you decide.

Check out this clip that's making the rounds, which purports to capture a real sasquatch sighting in Colorado. The video was apparently shot over the weekend during a steam-engine train ride from Durango to Silverton ... cutting through the San Juan National Forest.

As they were chugging along, it seems a group of passengers noticed what they believed to be Biggie walking along on the side of a mountain they were passing ... and they caught him.

Watch ... it certainly looks like a bipedal creature making its way through, and it even appears to notice the train -- spurring the beast to immediately crouch down in an attempt to blend in with its environment. We'll be honest, he does a good job of that ... it's uncanny.

During this same instance, a separate passenger snapped a still image ... although, it's unclear if it's the same bigfoot that's on video here, or a completely different one. In any case, with that photo ... you can kinda make out what looks to be an actual face!

Of course, despite this being fairly decent footage of the famed bigfoot ... many are still skeptical and not buying it, feeling like this is probably just a person in a gorilla costume.

We'll say this .. it's definitely one of the better purported sightings out there -- and funny enough, it actually kinda resembles the best video known to exist ... the notorious Patterson-Gimlin film that was shot way back in the late '60s, and which still has people torn.

He's been the hide-and-seek champ for years -- but that reign is over. We see ya, buddy. 😅

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have been separated for the past 7 years -- something the missus is now revealing in a new memoir ... which clears up a lot.

Jada made the revelation Wednesday in a couple different interviews -- one with People Mag and another with 'Today' ... in both, she admits that she and Will have been leading separate lives since 2016 -- and that, even today, they continue to live separately.

She also says they were separated when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars last year ... obviously putting their relationship dynamic -- which had long been the subject of rumors and speculation -- into the spotlight anew. BTW, even she was shocked by the violent moment ... now saying she thought the whole thing was a skit at first.

Anyway, Jada now acknowledges she and Will have been carrying on a charade as a committed couple for a long time now -- putting on a united front at multiple public events since their 2016 split, and also publicly denying anything was amiss when they'd been asked.

Of course, the crack in the armor truly came a few years ago when Jada confessed she and family friend August Alsina had had an "entanglement" -- which he, at the time, claimed had been OK'd by Will himself. Still, the fact they're completely separated is totally new news.

Jada says she wasn't ready to spill the beans about this until now, but in terms of what exactly led up to the uncoupling ... she's playing coy and not exactly saying, other than to note there were "a lot of things" that preluded their breakup. JPS also says she hasn't been able to bring herself to divorce Will -- saying she's been committed to "working through anything." It's a strange rationale ... and doesn't really make sense on its face.

The way Jada discusses their relationship in both of these interviews frames it as a partnership ... the idea of which she and Will appear to be dead set on maintaining.

Another interesting nugget in all this ... Jada says she contemplated suicide at one point because she was depressed -- and had actively sought out locations to do it, like cliffs.

Jada is expected to discuss more in a longer 'Today' interview on Friday. Of course, her book -- titled 'Worthy' -- will reveal all when it hits the shelves on Oct. 17.

Talk about complicated, huh?

One of Michael Jackson's iconic clothing items is hitting the auction block -- and although it's a somewhat lesser-known one ... it'll probably demand a king's ransom anyway.

We're talking about the black and white leather jacket MJ wore during one of his "Pepsi Generation" ads in 1984. No, it's not the infamous ad where he burned himself on set -- it's the one where he's dancing in the streets with a bunch of kids and others.

This was the first Pepsi commercial Mike did ... which makes this custom-made piece he wore on set all the more special -- and apparently, quite valuable too. It's up for grabs starting Nov. 10 through the Propstore -- and we're told it could fetch anywhere from $230k to $460,000. Considering this was once on Mike's own body, probably closer to the latter.

As far as how it ended up making its way toward a public sale ... the jacket was actually gifted to a guy named Wendell Thompson way back in the day -- whose father was a cosmetologist who worked with MJ. Wendell says he actually received the jacket straight from MJ in 1983 (before the ad even aired) during a run-in with the King of Pop in Orlando.

We're told was there during the grand opening of MJ's personal suite at Disney World's Hotel Royal Plaza -- which was a huge deal at the time. Ribbon-cutting and the whole shebang.

Anyway, Wendell says he's held onto this cherished item for ages now -- but at this point, he's ready to pass it on and reap the benefits ... all with the aim of using the cash to set up his kids and family in his will, hoping this will set a solid foundation for all of them.

Considering this thing is expected to go for almost half a million dollars, we'd say that's almost guaranteed to happen. Wendell says he hopes the new owner can enjoy the jacket as much as he has ... noting he has fond memories with it.

A rare collectible indeed, and pretty soon ... it can be yours. If you're ballin', that is.

Mario Lopez is pissed that the Golden State is focusing on healthier candy instead of other issues he finds far more pressing -- and he's letting his followers know about it publicly.

The longtime 'Extra' host fumed over Governor Gavin Newsom recently signing AB 418 into law -- which has become known as the "Skittles ban" ... although that's a little misleading over what this actually requires in California going forward.

Essentially, the law requires companies selling food in the state to remove certain additives ... which CA now deems harmful. One of the big-ticket chemicals being targeted is Red Dye 3 -- prominently found in Skittles -- and corporations have until 2027 to get their act together.

That's not how it's been advertised though -- many are falsely peddling this new law as an outright ban of Skittles, and it seems ML got ticked off over a social media headline.

He writes, "Crime is through the roof, worst drug epidemic ever & homelessness at an all time high in CA… Let’s focus on Skittles." Mario's criticism actually got a lot of praise in the comments, with folks saying he was right to point out the priorities seem out of whack.

Others, however, noted that this is actually a good thing ... and will help keep Californians safer in the long run. There've been a number of concerns over these now-banned additives in food -- which were never approved by the FDA, to begin with -- including cancer fears.

So, in other words ... Mario can still have his Skittles if he wants 'em -- not that he looks like he eats much of them, anyway. Tasting the rainbow ain't going anywhere!

Do you think Gov. Newsom's new 'Skittles ban' is a good idea? Vote below.

Mario Lopez está furioso con que California se esté centrando en tener dulces más saludables en lugar de preocuparse por otros temas mucho más urgentes, y se lo está haciendo saber públicamente a sus seguidores.

El presentador de "Extra" echó humo sobre el gobernador Gavin Newsom, quien recientemente firmó la ley AB 418, conocida como la "prohibición de Skittles", aunque esto es un poco engañoso sobre lo que realmente significará la ley para California en el futuro.

En esencia, la ley obliga a las empresas que venden alimentos en el estado a eliminar ciertos aditivos que California considera perjudiciales. Uno de los grandes productos químicos en la mira es Red Dye 3, prominentemente encontrado en Skittles, y las corporaciones tienen hasta 2027 para ponerse las pilas.

Sin embargo, no es así como se ha anunciado: muchos están vendiendo falsamente esta nueva ley como una prohibición total de los Skittles, y parece que Mario Lopez se enfadó por un titular en las redes sociales.

El presentador escribió: "El crimen está por las nubes, la peor epidemia de drogas de la historia y la falta de vivienda en su punto más alto en California. Centrémonos en los Skittles". La crítica de Mario recibió muchos elogios en los comentarios, pues muchas personas le encontraron razón al señalar que las prioridades parecen estar fuera de lugar.

Otros, sin embargo, señalaron que en realidad esto es algo bueno y que ayudará a mantener a los californianos más seguros en el futuro. Ha habido una serie de preocupaciones sobre estos aditivos ahora prohibidos en los alimentos, para empezar, el hecho de que nunca fueron aprobados por la FDA y también los temores de cáncer.

Ariana Grande's ex-husband, Dalton Gomez, is certainly enjoying the single life ... he was locking lips with actress Maika Monroe right on the heels of officially ending his marriage.

According to DeuxMoi, Dalton and the "It Follows" star were packin' on the PDA this past weekend -- the person who snapped the photo claims they were friendly with others at Jumbo's Clown Room ... a "bikini bar" in Los Angeles.

Maika and Dalton were apparently making out quite a bit, and barely trying to hide it -- the witness says the apparent couple would look around to see if anyone was watching before goin' back at it.

Dalton's clearly moved on from Ariana -- TMZ broke the story, the former husband and wife finalized their divorce on Friday, just weeks after they simultaneously filed for divorce.

As we reported, Ariana handed Dalton $1,250,000 as part of the settlement instead of spousal support. He's also getting half of the proceeds from the sale of their L.A. pad, and Ariana will have to cough up another $25k for his attorney's fees.

We were told there's a "strong mutual love and respect" between them ... and as you know, Ariana's already moved on from Dalton to her "Wicked" costar, Ethan Slater.

No, we haven't seen them suckin' faces at a strip club, but they did venture to Disney World last month. Not exactly the same vibe.

Did Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez move on too soon after their separation? Vote below.

El ex marido de Ariana Grande, Dalton Gomez, sin duda está disfrutando de la vida de soltero. Lo vimos besando a la actriz Maika Monroe justo después de terminar oficialmente su matrimonio.

Dalton y la estrella de "It Follows" tuvieron una cita el pasado fin de semana. La persona que tomó la foto afirma que fueron muy "amistosos" el uno con el otro en Jumbo's Clown Room, un "bar de bikini" en Los Ángeles.

Maika y Dalton aparentemente se besaron sin ocultar nada. El testigo dice que la pareja miraba a su alrededor para ver si alguien estaba observando antes de volver a hacerlo.

Está claro que Dalton ha superado a Ariana. TMZ publicó la noticia, los ex marido y mujer finalizaron su divorcio el viernes solo unas semanas después de que solicitaran el divorcio simultáneamente.

Como informamos, Ariana le entregó Dalton $1,250,000 como parte del acuerdo en lugar de manutención conyugal. También recibe la mitad de los ingresos de la venta de su propiedad en L.A. y Ariana tendrá que soltar otros $25k para los honorarios de su abogado.

Nos dijeron que hay un "fuerte amor y respeto mutuo" entre ellos, y como usted sabe, Ariana ya ha olvidado a Dalton con su coprotagonista, Ethan Slater.

Here's Tom Sandoval putting the moves on a woman he took an interest in at a Tennessee bar ... dancing with her before leaving together.

TMZ obtained video of the "Vanderpump Rules" star hitting the dance floor with a mystery brunette ... and it looks like there were sparks.

Folks who were there tell us Tom was at Dierks Bentley's Whiskey Row in Nashville, where Tom first approached the woman as she was dancing with her friends.

We're told the woman seemed hesitant at first, but then she started dancing with Tom ... and they started warming up to one another and things got wilder and wilder as they danced for about 30 minutes.

As you see in the video, it's a little awkward at first as they try and feel each other out ... with Tom trying to get her to twirl.

Sounds like they may have hit it off though ... because we're told Tom and the woman ended up leaving together. We don't know where they went.

The last time we saw Tom out was in early September when he was leaving a bar in West Hollywood with singer-songwriter Tii ... holding hands and interlocking fingers as they went back to his place.

No word about how things worked out with Tom and Tii ... but he's not known as a one-woman man.

1:48 PM PT -- NBC just released updated ratings and says the game actually peaked at 29 million viewers and averaged 27 mil. The new numbers include people who watched on NBC network, as well as streaming numbers for Peacock, NBC Sports Digital and NFL Digital platforms.

So ... the Chiefs vs. Jets, Taylor Swift's Version, is now NBC Sports' biggest-ever streaming audience for a regular season Sunday Night Football contest.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are seemingly still going strong ... but the number of folks tuning in for updates as Taylor cheers on TK dipped as Taylor went back for seconds.

The TV ratings are in ... Sunday night's telecast of NBC's Sunday Night Football saw 20.31 million viewers for a matchup between Travis' Kansas City Chiefs and the New York Jets.

The overall figure was the biggest on TV last night, but it's 4 million less than last Sunday's Chiefs game, which drew 24.32 million ... the first time Taylor cheered on Travis from a suite.

Of course, last week's Chiefs game was on a different network, FOX instead of this week's NBC, and in a different time slot ... 4:25 PM ET kickoff instead of this week's 8:20 PM ET start.

There was a lot more hype around Taylor and Travis heading into the Chief-Jets game, though, and even more star power in the second week.

NBC constantly panned to Taylor during the broadcast ... she was in a suite with Sophie Turner, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Hugh Jackman and Sabrina Carpenter ... just to name a few.

Taylor's new bestie, Brittany Mahomes, also joined Taylor in the suite ... ditto for Travis' mother, Donna, who got a big hug from Taylor.

Before the game, Travis was spotted leaving Taylor's NYC apartment before heading over to New Jersey for his game ... but they left MetLife Stadium separately, unlike last week in Kansas City when they drove off in a convertible.

Travis and the Chiefs are on CBS next Sunday ... for a 4:25 PM ET kickoff on the road against the Minnesota Vikings -- and it will be interesting if Taylor shows up for her third game in a row, and how the final TV ratings shake out.

Stay tuned ...

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce parecen seguir firmes, pero el número de personas que sintonizaron la TV para ver como Taylor animaba a Travis fue bastante menor esta vez.

Los índices de audiencia del domingo por la noche de la retransmisión de la NBC Sunday Night Football vio 20,31 millones de espectadores para un enfrentamiento entre los Jefes de Kansas City de Travis y los Jets de Nueva York.

La cifra global fue la más alta en la televisión anoche, pero fue 4 millones menos que el partido de los Chiefs del domingo pasado, que atrajo a 24,32 millones. La primera vez que Taylor animó a Travis desde una suite.

El partido de los Chiefs de la semana pasada fue en una cadena diferente (FOX), en lugar de la NBC de esta semana y en una franja horaria diferente, a las 4:25 PM en lugar de 8:20 PM.

Sin embargo, hubo mucho más bombo alrededor de Taylor y Travis de cara al partido Chief/Jets.

NBC constantemente mostró a Taylor durante la emisión. Ella estaba en una suite con Sophie Turner, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Hugh Jackman y Sabrina Carpenter. Sólo por nombrar unos pocos.

La nueva amiga de Taylor, Brittany Mahomes, también se unió a Taylor en la suite. Lo mismo para la madre de Travis, Donna, que recibió un gran abrazo de Taylor.

Antes del partido, Travis fue visto saliendo del apartamento de Taylor en Nueva York antes de dirigirse a Nueva Jersey para su juego, pero salieron del estadio MetLife por separado a diferencia de la semana pasada en Kansas City cuando se fueron en un convertible.

Travis y los Jefes estarán en CBS el próximo domingo. A las 4:25 PM comienza el juego contra los Vikingos de Minnesota y será interesante ver si Taylor se presenta para su tercer partido consecutivo. Ojalá los números en televisión acompañen al equipo esta vez .

Kanye West didn't bite his tongue while lashing into Cardi B during her monster 2018 come-up … as seen in leaked footage from an unreleased documentary that’s currently burning up the internet!!!

In the clips, Ye was also adamant Kris Jenner's longtime boyfriend Corey Gamble is a CIA agent who tied Cardi into an alleged new world that conflicted with his existing allegiances. Yeah, this is out there, so buckle up.

Ye ranted, "Cardi B is a plant by the Illuminati. She don't write her raps. She just there to sound as ignorant as possible and then make songs like, 'f*** them and get some money.' She has literally replaced Nicki Minaj, purposely that they put her there, and now she doesn't know what to do, and she has no idea what the fuck is going on. She thinks it's just a blessing from the universe. It ain't no blessing from the universe!!!”

In 2018, Cardi dropped her one and only solo album ... the historic "Invasion of Privacy" which spawned 2 Diamond singles and also saw her feud with Nicki nearly come to blows ...  but seasons change just like people's feelings sometimes and Cardi appears to be letting bygones be just that.

As the clip spread on social media, Cardi opted to NOT bark back ... she posted a heart emoji with a clip from Ye's 2022 interview with Jason Lee on "Hollywood Unlocked" where Ye praised her outspokenness and gushed over having the privilege of recording a song with her -- the 2022 track "Hot Sh*t" with Lil Durk.

There was no joyride underneath the stars for Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift this time around for the budding couple ... the pop star and her new beau left MetLife Stadium separately after she watched him secure yet another win on the field.

Kelce bolted from the Chiefs' locker room area toward the team buses without Swift following Kansas City's 23-20 win. The "Love Story" singer, meanwhile, exited arm in arm with her pal Sophie Turner.

In a way, this exit further confirms their relationship. When they walked out of the stadium together last week and left in the same car, it was almost their coming out. This time around it was less showy ... almost like there was no reason to underscore what is now obvious.

After the game, Taylor hit up Zero Bond restaurant in NYC. It's unclear who she was with ... there are no shots of Travis, Sophie or any of her other buds who watched the game with her.

Taylor was all in again as she watched the Chiefs eke out a win, throwing up her hands and cheering. She was joined by Sophie, Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Sabrina Carpenter and others.

Taylor's new bff, Brittany Mahomes, and Travis' mom, Donna, were also in the suite.

Travis was spotted earlier in the day leaving Taylor's apartment before heading to the stadium.

Short story ... the Taylor Swift game was super entertaining.

Taylor Swift se está convirtiendo en todo un rostro para las marcas de moda, porque los pantalones cortos de mezclilla que llevaba en el último partido de fútbol de Travis Kelce ya se han agotado en línea.

Como ustedes saben, Taylor estaba en un palco lleno de celebridades en el MetLife Stadium el domingo por la noche en Nueva Jersey, vistiendo unos pantalones cortos de mezclilla con logotipo de la marca de moda AREA.

Los pantalones cortos estaban siendo vendidos en Farfetch por la módica suma de $1,213, pero hicieron un descuento de 50% la noche del juego. Para el lunes por la mañana ya no quedaba ninguno.

No debería ser una sorpresa, millones tenían sus ojos puestos en Taylor durante el partido de los Chiefs contra los Jets. La NBC 'SNF' se está apoyando bastante en la locura viral que ocurrió justo una semana antes.

Esta no es la única prenda de Swift/Kelce que se ha agotado. Como informamos, una línea de moda añadió "1989" al nombre de la chaqueta que Travis llevaba la semana pasada cuando fue visto saliendo con Taylor, una referencia a uno de sus álbumes.
