Jake Gyllenhaal's new flick, "Road House," packs one helluva punch ... but Key West's Mayor ain't too thrilled with how their sunny paradise has been portrayed on-screen.

Teri Johnston, the mayor of Key West, tells TMZ ... while she hasn't caught the film, she's not pleased with its rowdy, drug-filled, and crime-ridden portrayal of the Florida Keys ... saying that might've been The Keys in the '70s and '80s, but it's a whole new ball game in 2024!

Mayor Johnston lays down the facts ... telling us 90% of Key West residents are transplants  -- representing a diverse mix of environmentalists, artists, business owners, teachers, firefighters, and police officers.

Another day, another slate of hard-hitting TV topics ... and we got it all for you right here.

Let's start out on "TMZ Live," where Harvey and Charles discussed the latest development in the Diddy saga -- namely, his two homes in L.A. and Miami being raided by the feds ... and some people in his family being detained as agents stormed the properties with guns out.

UFC flyweight Andre Lima got bitten, and he's got the marks to prove it ... but believe it or not, the undefeated MMA fighter says he feels bad for the guy who went all Iron Mike on his arm during the Fight Night scrap!

"I feel so sorry, to be honest," Lima told TMZ Sports on Monday. "I'm sad for him because he came from the same thing, the struggle like I did. He has a family ... bright future."

"I feel so much for him because I know the same journey I have, he has too. I feel bad for him."

If you didn't catch it, 20-year-old Igor Severino, who was 8-0 and making his UFC debut, squared off against 8-0 Lima in Las Vegas when things took a wild turn. About halfway through round 2, Igor latched onto the inside of Andre's arm, near his bicep, prompting a scream from Lima.

Severino was disqualified for the bite -- his first loss -- and Dana White cut him shortly after the DQ. In the thousands of fights in UFC history, this was a first.

But, it's not all terrible news ... Lima, who actually got a tattoo of the bite after the fight, says he's down to rematch Igor, IF he gets back into the UFC -- but that's probably wishful thinking.

Lima also got a $50k bonus from Dana ... for going through what he did (as well as the awesome tattoo). We asked him what he was going to do with the cash.

"I wanna help my mom, a few people in my family," Lima said, adding ... "I wanna buy a car. That's one thing I've wanted for a long time and now I can buy my car."

Lima also wants UFC fans to take him seriously ... and doesn't want to only be known as the guy who was bitten during a fight.

Shohei Ohtani just broke his silence on the gambling scandal surrounding his former interpreter -- and the Dodgers star was adamant he never placed any sports bets.

The 29-year-old addressed the media on Monday afternoon for the first time since Ippei Mizuhara was fired for allegedly using some of the baseball player's funds to gamble with an illegal bookmaker.

Ohtani told reporters through his new translator, Will Ireton, that he had no idea what was going on with the situation up until a team meeting following the Dodgers' first game of the season last week in Korea.

Pittsburgh Penguins fans rejoice -- the thousands of Jaromir Jagr bobbleheads that were stolen earlier this month have been located and returned ... and the team is now preparing to hand them out to their rightful new owners.

The organization released a statement on the development Monday ... saying a special cargo recovery team was able to negotiate the return of the bobbles and secure them at a warehouse in Ontario, CA.

The mini Jagrs then made their way to the Steel City ... and are slated to eventually arrive at PPG Paints Arena at some point in the next week.

Of course, the giveaways were originally supposed to go to fans in attendance for the March 14 game against the San Jose Sharks ... as part of a big night to celebrate the NHL legend's historic career.

The team said the Jagr bobbleheads will be made available to those with tix to the original game starting April 6 ... and it will host a drive-thru pickup period at the arena as well.

Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld's romance is starting to feel real serious ... as the two couldn't have looked more in love during a cameo they recently did for a baby's gender reveal.

The video was posted on TikTok on Sunday ... and in it, several family members and friends -- including Allen and Steinfeld -- appeared on screen to guess the gender of Allen's sister's unborn child.

After introducing themselves, Allen and Steinfeld both predicted it'd be a boy -- but check out the footage, the two looked super smitten with one another.

Josh appears to have his hand on her lower back -- and at one point during their short appearance, Hailee stumbles and braces herself with the NFL star's core. The two also flashed big grins throughout.

The couple has been pretty much inseparable recently -- they've been spotted cruising around the Los Angeles area a few times this offseason ... and they were also looking lovey-dovey during their trip to Paris Fashion Week earlier this month.

In fact, they've gotten so tight -- Allen's Bills teammate, Dion Dawkins, proclaimed in early March the quarterback "is in love."

Jake Paul's speed-skating superstar girlfriend, Jutta Leerdam, threw on a bikini and took a swim during a lavish getaway recently ... showing off her incredible, Olympic-worthy body while snorkeling through the water.

The Problem Child and Dutch athlete got some R&R in Costa Rica ... soaking in the sun, enjoying the wildlife and having plenty of time at sea.

The couple of about a year have been inseparable throughout the trip ... sharing plenty of PDA snaps as they celebrated their love.

Ryan Garcia's bizarre social media activity continues ... this time, the boxing superstar claims he's handing out plastic surgery procedures like candy -- including boob jobs and Brazilian butt lifts.

King Ryan made the odd proclamation on his X account Monday morning ... saying he wants to show his support for women by helping them fulfill their cosmetic desires.

"I'm giving out free BBL's and Boob jobs hit me up," Garcia said. "No weird stuff just out here supporting."

Garcia insisted the gesture is not to throw shade at anyone ... adding, "No disrespect either I respect all woman. I love and support all woman in the world."

The 25-year-old explained his decision to help out ... saying he's been getting blown up with requests in the DMs and wanted to go "full support mode."

Garcia ended his post with another weird statement -- "RG FOR PRESIDENT" -- although the guy has a bit of aging to do before he can actually set his sights on the Oval Office.

As we previously reported, Garcia swore off any non-sports social media content prior to his April 20 fight against Devin Haney ... but that promise was short-lived.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got hot and heavy in the Bahamas last week -- making out in the water while they were stripped down to their bathing suits ... and it's a familiar sight.

The couple got into the ocean Thursday while enjoying Harbour Island -- and they were ready to make out and get cozy on their vacation ... 'cause that's exactly what they did, not just among the waves but on the actual beach as well.

Take a look at the hot pics for yourself -- Taylor was all over Travis while he held her as they took a dip ... with one arm wrapped around his body, and the other hand holding a drink.

A baseball fan was super bummed he didn't receive an Adolis Garcia signed baseball ... but what he got was so much better, courtesy of the MLB superstar, Fanatics, and Michael Rubin!

It all started earlier this month when a fan named Sean Deitrick went on X to express displeasure about not receiving a baseball signed by Garcia, which he previously ordered from apparel giant, Fanatics (Garcia's signing was delayed, thus no ball).

Deitrick's mood ... "So, so bummed."

The tweet got enough attention that it made its way to the screen of Rubin, Fanatics founder ... and the management team.

A few weeks later, Sean provided an update, writing, "[Fanatics] was really nice and tried to help me get another ball, but I told them I already had one and figured that was that."

Cue the big surprise.

"Then, today, they surprised me with a DM from [Adolis Garcia]," he wrote on X, before saying, "I'm going to Opening Day!!! 🙏🙏🙏"

Sure enough, Fanatics reached out ... and was going to get the fan a signed ball, but he'd already found Garcia's John Hancock elsewhere. Rather than stopping there, Rubin and Fanatics wanted to do something special for the guy.

They reached out to the 31-year-old, 2x All-Star ... who then recorded a message for Deitrick, and sent it to him via direct message on social media.

"Hi Sean, Fanatics told me you're a big fan, and I can't wait to see you at the home opener at Arlington Stadium!"

A college basketball player seemed to suggest Kylie Jenner was recently trying to holler at him -- but unfortunately for him ... that couldn't be further from the truth, TMZ has learned.

23-year-old UNC shooting guard Paxson Wojcik was leaning into this notion that Kylie was interested in him in the digital world -- at least based on a video a reporter took of him after a game last week ... where the interviewer name-dropped the beauty mogul directly.

Check it out ... Paxson gets peppered with questions by this guy post-game, and the line of questioning is pretty direct -- "What do you have to say about rumors that Kylie slid into your DMs???" BTW, there really weren't any rumors until his homeboy floated this online.

Joe Biden took time out of his Sunday night to throw a jab at Donald Trump ... trolling the former president for receiving golf awards at his own course.

No. 45 got the honors at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida ... earning the titles of Club Champion and Senior Club Champion -- and afterward, he gloated about it on Truth Social.

In his post, Trump said he got the trophies over a talented field ... writing, "The qualifying and match play was amazing."

Quite possibly one of the grossest injuries in combat sports history went down over the weekend ... when a Muay Thai fighter had his nose completely wrecked during a bout -- and yeah, the video is disgusting.

The gruesome incident went down between Por Tor Thor Petchrungruang and Shayan Heydari in Thailand ... when the latter was rocked with a vicious uppercut in the second round of the contest.

Heydari's nose practically went sideways ... and it was immediately clear the thing was broken.

Tom Brady has some competition for best athlete in the family ... 'cause his college softball star niece just launched her 62 home run of her career, good enough to rank her third in UCLA history ... and TB12 is hyped!

The NFL G.O.A.T. gave his niece Maya Brady -- a senior shortstop at UCLA -- a shoutout on Instagram after she smashed two home runs during the 14th-ranked Bruins game against Washington on Sunday.

Maya didn't only lead her Bruins to a 6-0 win over the 8th ranked Husky's, but her two bombs moved her into third place on the all-time home run list at the university, and Uncle Tommy's proud!

"Sorry peeps it just runs in the family," Brady wrote on Sunday. "LFG @mayabrady!"

Of course, Tom's no stranger to records ... but neither is Maya. She was the 2023 Pac-12 Player of the Year and the Pac-12 Batting Champion with a .456 average.

Maya, BTW, is the eldest daughter of Tom's older sister, and the softball star has said she views her unc as more of a "father figure."

The 22-year-old also strives to do her best to represent the Brady name.

"It’s just good pressure," Maya told The Athletic. "I love bearing the last name. I’m just really proud of it."

A violent fistfight broke out in the stands during the USA vs. Mexico soccer game Sunday night -- with fans throwing haymakers left and right ... and the wild scene was all captured on video.

It happened at some point during the United States' 2-0 win in the CONCACAF Nations League final at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas ... when Team Mexico fans clearly had enough of a gloating U.S. supporter.

Check out the footage ... as the man decked out in red, white and blue cheered on his squad -- a Team Mexico fan tried to sock him in the face.

Taylor Swift is finally ready to have her picture taken in LA — and yes … Travis Kelce was right by her side for the high-profile photo-op.

The couple hit up one of the most frequented hot spots in town Sunday by dropping in on Nobu Malibu — and in broad daylight, no less … so you know they were ready to be snapped by paps, and they 100% were.

This was a lunch outing, and as you can see … TK and Tay Tay had a balcony seat, facing the ocean.
