Grab those toolkits and ties, people ... it's Father's Day once again -- and, Hollywood knows how to highlight its dads, the famous ones and the ones who helped raise a future celeb.

Hollywood celebrities shared pictures with their own fathers or -- if they have kids themselves -- then pics of them with their little ones ... and, you can just feel all the fatherly love coming through social media.

Glen Powell and Mark Zuckerberg started off the festivities by highlighting their own dads -- with Zuck even humbling his billionaire persona to highlight his old man in a shirt that reads "Ed's Kid."

The Angel Reese/Caitlin Clark rivalry's alive and well ... 'cause Angel just committed a hard foul while Clark was going up for a layup -- smacking her in the side of the head.

The foul occurred just moments ago ... with Clark's Indiana Fever up 63-62 over the Chicago Sky in the third quarter. Check out the clip -- Clark's heading to the hoop when she's taken down by Reese, landing on the hardwood.

While at first, it seems like just a tough foul, the referees call for a break in the action to review the blow ... and, another camera angle shows fans exactly why.

"Sandlot" star Tom Guiry, who played Smalls in the movie, got busted for throwing a strike ... but cops say he didn't hit his target with a baseball, he used a dumbbell!!!

TMZ obtained video of the alleged incident ... and it appears to show Tom tossing a huge weight on a car windshield, shattering it completely.

The footage is absolutely bonkers ... you see Tom bring the dumbbell behind his head and then drop it on a white Jeep ... before marching across two manicured front lawns to go back inside ... all while the dumbbell rolls down the hood.

For those hoping Roger Federer would have a change of heart about his retirement decision ... the 20-time Grand Slam champion tells TMZ Sports it's time to give up hope -- 'cause he's adamant he's really done playing for good.

We caught up with the 42-year-old tennis great out in NYC this week ... and despite hanging up the racket back in 2022, there were still a ton of fans waiting outside to greet him.

Federer spoke with our cameras for a bit as he signed autographs ... and when we asked about any urges to unretire -- he responded with an emphatic "NO!"

Jeff Ross says Tom Brady really is the GOAT for letting millions of people have a laugh at his expense ... telling TMZ Sports the future Hall of Famer deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for being such a good sport during his roast last month.

We caught up with "The RoastMaster General" out at LAX this week ... and tried to ask who he'd love to target next, considering Netflix's "Roast Of Tom Brady" was such a massive success.

But, Ross explained it's going to be tough to get any celeb to step up to the plate after seeing what happened to Brady ... which led him to praise the guy for taking everything on the chin.

Power slap star Sheena Bathory says she's gotten mixed reactions from some of her fans over her new BBL ... but she tells TMZ Sports she's happy with her new look -- despite what haters are saying online.

The 32-year-old got the butt work done in Florida on June 5 ... and when we spoke with her days after her big cosmetic surgery this week -- she said she's loving what she's seeing so far.

Bathory told us, though, that while she's received support and well wishes from many of her fans ... some have criticized her -- saying she looked fine previously.

Bad Bunny's concert saw a shooting plot thwarted, President Biden saw his dog bite Secret Service agents and folks didn't see a mistake on the Chiefs championship rings before sending them to the team ... all this and more on TMZ TV Hot Takes.

On "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles detail the would-be race war mass shooting threat that targeted BB's Atlanta concert, and how it was stopped before it began.

The Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks weren't the only ones going head to head in the NBA finals ... a bunch of Celtics fans got into an amateur boxing match at a game 4 watch party.

Friday night's brawl broke out between two men seated near each other in the crowd at TD Garden arena in Beantown ... where Celtics fans were having a viewing party of the on-court action taking place inside American Airlines Stadium in Dallas.

Check out the vid ... the younger dude was standing over the older guy and using his head as a punching bag. Several bystanders and a security guard tried to pull the aggressor off the old man as he cowered on cement stairs.

Bill Belichick has a new love interest in his life ... TMZ Sports has learned he's dating 23-year-old former competitive cheerleader Jordon Hudson.

Sources close to the situation tell us the two have been romantic for a while now -- becoming an item shortly after the ex-New England Patriots head coach called off his longtime relationship with Linda Holliday.

According to one of Hudson's former cheerleading teammates, Hudson first met the 72-year-old on a flight from the Boston area bound for Florida way back in 2021 ... and bonded over a philosophy project the student-athlete had been working on.

O.J. Simpson went to ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson's condo the night of the murders in a Ford Bronco, but there's evidence that the Bronco wasn't his.

TMZ has a new documentary on Tubi -- 'O.J. How He Really Did It' -- in which Harvey Levin, then a reporter at KCBS-TV in L.A., shares never-before-heard stories about the murders.

One thing that always puzzled him ... how is it that O.J. would have been soaked in blood after brutally stabbing 2 human beings to death, yet his Ford Bronco had relatively little blood inside the vehicle?

Ex-UFC star Tim Kennedy -- who's also a U.S. Army Special Forces sniper -- is praising the police sniper who took out a bank robber with a close-range kill shot between 2 hostages.

Tim tells TMZ … law enforcement did incredible work here to preserve innocent lives and protect civilians, and anyone who thinks the sniper put the hostages at risk with such a daring shot has no clue what goes into a snipe like this.

Remember ... video shows the moment a Lee County Sheriff's Department sniper shoots through a computer monitor inside a bank, killing a robber who was using 2 hostages as human shields while communicating with a negotiator.

Most boxing fans are PUMPED for Jake Paul and Mike Tyson's November fight. But, there's a group of critics who've attacked The Problem Child for fighting a mid-50s Iron Mike.

We asked 27-year-old Paul what he'd say to the detractors.

"Tell Mike Tyson that. Because he does not give a s*** what anyone thinks," Paul told Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show this week (airs nightly on FS1).

Uncross those fingers and exhale, 49ers fans ... Eric Dickerson says Christian McCaffrey will be just fine this season -- telling TMZ Sports there is no such thing as the "Madden Curse!!!"

Of course, plenty in San Francisco have been worried sick since Tuesday ... after the star running back was named the Madden NFL 25 cover athlete.

While disaster hasn't struck for the most recent players who've received the honor -- it happened so frequently in the past, it's become commonplace for fans to have concerns about it all -- and SF supporters haven't been much different this week.

Same s***, different day -- that's star boxer David Benavidez's motto heading into his big bout Saturday night ... 'cause the boxer tells us he plans to kick Oleksandr Gvozdyk's ass, just like he did when they sparred a few years back.

Benavidez (28-0) and Gvozdyk (20-1) are one of the two Prime Video PPV main events this weekend at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas ... with the winner taking the WBC interim light heavyweight title.

Benavidez -- who moved up weight classes (to 175 lbs.) to fight Gvozdyk -- feels confident the victory will be his ... and he isn't the least bit threatened by the Ukrainian fighter.

Dan Hurley went back to UConn ... so the Lakers should now turn their attention toward Sam Cassell -- so says Reggie Theus, who tells TMZ Sports the ex-NBA star would be an "excellent" choice for L.A.'s vacant head coaching job.

Theus -- a former NBA player and ex-coach of the Sacramento Kings -- said out at LAX this week that Cassell is "my guy" ... and would be his top choice to fill in for Darvin Ham now that Hurley is officially out of the picture in Los Angeles.

"I love Sam," he said. "I think he's been around -- he's earned his dues."

Kate Middleton's cancer treatment is going well, Pope Francis is hanging with Hollywood's biggest comedians and Conor McGregor's suffering a setback ... all this and more on today's hot takes.

First up on "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles have a big update on Kate's cancer battle, plus her plans for a big public appearance.
