"Jersey Shore" stars Sammi Giancola and Vinny Guadagnino's dueling engagement announcements on April 1 were not a part of a prank war ... well, not entirely.

Sammi Sweetheart's engagement to boyfriend Justin May did, in fact, happen ... as the MTV personality assured her followers her relationship update was not an April Fools' Day joke. She says Justin popped the question on March 16, but they made the risky decision to share the news -- and first photos of the diamond ring -- on April 1.

Her costars offered up some sincere reactions ... as Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Angelina Pivarnick and Pauly "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio all shared their congratulations in the comments section.

Beyoncé and Taylor Swift were the feature attractions at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards Monday night -- and two superstars walked away with more than a few statues.

But, unlike Taylor, Bey showed up at the star-studded event at L.A.'s Dolby Theater, flashing her new persona as a leather-clad cowgirl after last Friday's release of her very popular country music album, "Cowboy Carter." Taylor arrived later via video message.

After posing for some pics on the red carpet, Bey and the other stars went inside to enjoy the show, which was hosted by Ludacris. Among the awards nominees were Miley Cyrus, Drake, Jelly Roll, Luke Combs, Morgan Wallen, Olivia Rodrigo, Shakira, SZA and Usher.

Gerry Turner and his wife Theresa Nist are currently living in separate states -- but despite the distance, the sun isn't setting on their relationship ... in fact, it's quite the opposite.

Sources close to the 'Golden Bachelor' stars tell TMZ the couple -- who married in a 'Golden Wedding' special on Jan. 4 -- are doing the long-distance thing, with Gerry chilling at his Northern Indiana lake house while Theresa's over in New Jersey.

We're told there are a few reasons why they haven't taken the leap to live together just yet ... and a lot of it has to do with the fact that moving is a complete and total hassle.

Tori Spelling le dio la noticia a Dean McDermott de que había solicitado el divorcio justo en medio de su pódcast, y podemos asegurar que fue bastante pasivo-agresivo.

La estrella de "Beverly Hills, 90210" mencionó a Dean en su pódcast "misSPELLING", y todo el mundo pudo escuchar lo que tenía que decir. Asegura que él estaba trabajando cuando ella lo llamó para darle la noticia. Ella minimizó las cosas un poco al principio, diciendo que la petición era solo una formalidad, pero luego se hizo real.

Tori dijo que era justo que ella presentara la demanda primero porque él le habló de sexo y otros detalles íntimos de su matrimonio al Daily Mail. Está claro que ella estaba enfadada por esto y -aunque solo se oye su parte de la conversación- parece que Dean no estaba contento de que ella se le adelantara en el juzgado.

Tori Spelling broke the news to Dean McDermott she had filed for divorce right in the middle of her podcast, and -- to say the least -- it's super passive-aggressive.

The "Beverly Hills, 90210" star called Dean on her "misSPELLING" podcast, and everyone could hear her end of the convo. She says he was working when she hit him up, and dropped the news she had filed. She kinda minimized it at first, saying the filing was just a formality, but then it got real.

Tori said it was only right she file first because he talked about sex and other intimate details in their marriage to the Daily Mail. It's clear she was angry he had done it, and -- although you only hear her end of the conversation -- it seems Dean wasn't happy she beat him to the courthouse punch.

Billie Eilish is calling out artists for re-releasing their music in various hard copy forms -- and while she doesn't names names ... many are taking this as a shot at Taylor Swift.

The singer did an interview with Billboard -- and she touched on this issue bluntly ... saying there are a lot of "big artists" who re-release all of their music multiple times, including on vinyl, and Billie thinks it's a shameless cash grab ... not to mention bad for the environment.

She says ... "We live in this day and age where, for some reason, it’s very important to some artists to make all sorts of different vinyl and packaging … which ups the sales and ups the numbers and gets them more money and gets them more."

Beyoncé took Dolly Parton's most famous hit about begging a woman to stay away from her man and switched it up -- going on the offensive ... and invoking the notorious "Becky."

It was one of many surprises on Bey's new album "Cowboy Carter" -- with her track "Jolene" not necessarily being a pure cover of DP's iconic song ... but more so a remix, where she drastically changed the lyrics and shifted the focus over who the song is really about.

Whereas Dolly's version is quite literally pleading with a woman named Jolene -- who's portrayed as a beauty who's seducing Dolly's fictional husband -- Bey did the opposite ... and fired off warning shots to this "Jolene" and told her to steer clear from her own hubby.

Taylor Swift's apparently a good luck charm for Travis Kelce on the golf course too!

The Chiefs star hit the links with Chandler Parsons on Thursday -- and in an effort to get the tight end to screw up a shot, CP threw on some "Bad Blood."

But, check out the video the former NBA player posted to his Instagram page, Kelce actually thrived with the tunes on in the background!!

Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel -- who skyrocketed to fame on 'Oprah' and a TLC reality series -- have achieved a major milestone ... secretly welcoming a spouse into their unconventional home.

Public records show Abby married army veteran Josh Bowling in Minnesota back in 2021 ... according to TODAY.

As Abby and Brittany are dicephalus conjoined twins -- a rare occurrence, where they share all organs below the waist -- the nuptials have sparked many questions about the couple's arrangement with Brittany at home.

Beyoncé was living the high life ... hopping on board her $40 million private jet to indulge in some serious spaghetti ahead of her album release -- which actually features a track dedicated to the Italian culinary favorite.

Judging by her IG pics Thursday ... it looks like Queen Bey wasn't wasting any time celebrating the early success of her country-themed album "Cowboy Carter" -- set for release Friday -- as she dined in style in the air.

In another pic, Beyoncé's fully embracing the cowgirl vibe ... rocking a black jumper dress, knee-high Jimmy Choo boots, and topping it off with a stylish black fedora hat.

Diddy's Los Angeles estate is attracting tons of visitors this week -- besides the feds who raided the place, and really because of them, tourists are desperate to get just a peek at the mansion.

We spoke with several tour bus companies that have been cruising by Diddy's pad a lot in the wake of Monday's shocking raids, and they say customer interest was definitely piqued by the headlines.

A couple tour companies say their buses are packed to the gills this week ... which they admit is due to this being spring break as much as it is Diddy's legal woes.

Kenan Thompson says he feels for those who were mistreated while working as child stars at Nickelodeon back in the day -- but he also makes clear ... he just wasn't one of them.

The comedian hopped on the 'Tamron Hall Show' Wednesday, where he was plugging his "Good Burger 2" movie -- which, ironically, is a Nickelodeon production -- and he was asked point blank what he made of all the horror stories that surfaced in 'Quiet on Set.'

Kenan says, "It’s a tough subject because, it’s tough for me because I can’t really speak on things that I’ve never witnessed ... Because all these things happened after I left, basically, and Dan [Schneider] wasn’t really on 'Kenan & Kel' like that."

Eva Mendes put her acting career on the back burner after having kids with Ryan Gosling -- something she's happy with ... as she has no issue with him bringing home the bacon.

The actress talked to "Today" about a number of things in an interview this week -- and she touched on her work-life dynamic with her partner ... with whom she's been with for several years now. Eva and Ryan share two daughters... a 9-year-old and a 7-year-old.

On the topic of stepping away from acting, Eva says it was a no-brainer -- adding that she values being a full-time mom and spending time with her children, which she says is just as much work. EM also says she pursues other opportunities, but just does it from home.

Los dos hijos de Diddy que fueron sacados de su casa de Los Ángeles durante una redada federal, regresaron a la propiedad a altas horas de la noche, pero se fueron muy rápidamente y con sus cosas a cuestas.

Justin y King Combs, que aparecieron esposados en un video mientras los agentes de Seguridad Nacional irrumpían en la propiedad de su padre en Beverly Hills, regresaron al lugar el lunes por la noche, luego que los federales echaran un buen vistazo alrededor.

Nos dicen que cuando la redada terminó y las calles quedaron despejadas, la casa parecía relativamente vacía hasta que Justin regresó a eso de las 10:30 PM PT y percibieron nuevamente movimiento. Al parecer, estaba recogiendo cajas y/o equipaje. Los paparazzi que estaban estacionados afuera registraron la acción en el interior.

Nos dicen que Justin finalmente recogió sus pertenencias y se fue, y que King llegó por separado un par de horas más tarde. Pareciera que también estuvo recogiendo sus cosas.

Había otras personas en el grupo mientras Justin y King iban y venían, pero no está claro quiénes podrían haber sido. En cualquier caso, nos dicen que nadie ha regresado por ahora.

Como hemos informado, Justin y King estaban directamente involucrados en la redada del lunes en Los Ángeles. Ambos fueron llevados hacia afuera por parte de los agentes federales y, finalmente, esposados mientras la Seguridad Nacional barría la casa y sus alrededores.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo nos dicen que nadie de la familia de Diddy fue detenido el lunes, y eso también corre para él. Nos dicen que sus movimientos no están restringidos.

Diddy's two sons who were hauled out of his L.A. home during a federal raid came back to the property late at night -- but they left very quickly thereafter ... with their stuff in tow.

Justin and King Combs -- who were seen on video in handcuffs as Homeland Security agents swept through their father's Beverly Hills estate -- ended up arriving and eventually hightailing it late Monday night ... this after the feds had a good look around.

Once the raid was over and the streets cleared ... we're told the house seemed relatively empty -- but it wasn't until Justin pulled up to the property around 10:30 PM PT that there was some movement ... including what we're told appeared to be him gathering boxes and/or luggage. Paps who were stationed outside recorded the action from beyond the main gate.

Diddy's private jet was flown to an island in the Caribbean yesterday while the feds were raiding his 2 homes in the States -- and while he wasn't on this particular plane, it's no less noticeable on the runway ... as you can see in this new shot of the aircraft.

Check out these photos, obtained by TMZ, showing the rap mogul's famed all-black Gulfstream 5 -- dubbed LoveAir -- grounded Monday night at an airport right in the heart of Antigua ... where it landed Monday after traversing the U.S. all the way from L.A.

No sign of any activity near the plane -- law enforcement or otherwise -- and there's no indication anyone onboard was mixed up with what was going on here in the U.S.
