Sydney Sweeney's on a spending spree these days, and it's all centered around her move to sunny South Florida ... which is where she's cruising in a very unique brand new car!

The actress bought her new beach mobile, a Fiat 500 Jolly, from Hampton Jollys in Greenwich, Connecticut. The ride's clearly built for fun-in-the-sun -- kind of a cross between a golf cart and a dune buggy -- but it's priced like a sports car.

We're told it set Syd back $68,500 ... not cheap, but she's got that kinda dough.

The L.A. Lakers want UCONN head coach Danny Hurley, and despite a fat new contract and an opportunity to go back-to-back-to-back, the coveted coach needs to listen to Lake Show execs, according to Dan Dakich, former Indiana University player and coach.

Dakich, host of Outkick's "Don't @ Me," joined Babcock on "TMZ Sports" (airs nightly on FS1) on Thursday -- only hours after news of the Purple and Gold's interest in Hurley rocked the basketball world -- and we asked the longtime player, coach, and media personality about the bigtime development.

"Well, you got to listen. You got to listen. I mean, you're talking the highest-paid NBA coach is [making] 17 and a half million. I don't give a damn. You got to listen," Dan said.

Pro-Palestinian protesters had a hot take of their own on Kamala Harris, Ray J is taking tons of credit for the Kim K sex tape and Delonte West is in trouble ... and the TMZ crew has hot takes on all three.

Over on "TMZ Live" Harvey and Charles break down the off-air protest that interrupted Kamala's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show.

Growing up in Barranquilla, Columbia ... Before this cheeky girl with her hand on her hip turned into a super star, she was just writing poetry at four years old, busting out her singing skills and dancing on tables!

Her 2001 hit was such a banger you could listen to it whenever, wherever! As an adult, her performances have proven time and time again ... her "Hips Don't Lie" and her Super Bowl performance with Jenny from the Block did NOT disappoint!

She's collaborated with other big names like Cardi B and Beyoncé!

Rihanna is either sending a message or trolling with her fashion choice in the Big Apple ... and it's all about what's on her shirt.

RiRi hopped out of an SUV in New York City Thursday and walked past photogs in a graphic tee -- which has the words "I'm Retired" emblazoned across the front ... pretty interesting given that she hasn't released an album since 2016 and is now a mother of two.

Rihanna's fans are surely gonna read between the lines here ... and she didn't say much else as she made her way into a building, other than joking with a pap about Ozempic.

Zooey Deschanel is usually acting her ass off on camera -- but to cap off the month of May ... she was singing her ass off instead, and doing a damn good job too.

Check out this video, obtained by TMZ, that shows the "New Girl" star at an art gallery/wine bar in Wilmington, NC two Sundays ago ... where we're told she and some colleagues rented the space for a good old-fashioned karaoke sesh.

As you can see, Zooey was on the mic and belting out songs -- including "Don't Stop Believin'," "The Weight" and even "We Are the World." For each, she sang her heart out.

Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour has brought out fans, celebrities ... and now apparently shadowy figures cloaked in darkness too -- 'cause one stood atop a huge stadium to watch her show.

One of the singer's recent shows in Madrid received an unexpected guest ... caught on video at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in the middle of Swift's song "Delicate." As you can see, this creepy thing (which looks like a human) is standing at the very top, alone.

While Tay's singing her heart out below, the audience member who filmed this pans upward ... catching the outline of an apparent person swaying along near the stadium's roof.

Frank Grillo is kinda crapping on Angelenos on the 80th anniversary of D-Day -- to honor the milestone, he's saying they don't make men like they used to ... especially here in L.A.

The topic came Thursday at LAX as we caught up with the action star -- who has appeared in films like "Zero Dark Thirty," "End of Watch," "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," and "The Purge: Election Year" -- where we asked about one of the biggest highlights from WWII.

With the famous military operation top of mind ... Frank told us what D-Day means to him -- offering up his respect to vets of the past ... calling them the "last of the great generation."

Ray J thinks his sex tape with Kim Kardashian altered the course of porn history, but some in the game say otherwise ... highlighting Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton as the OGs.

You may have heard Ray's hot take this week -- namely, that his sex tape with Kim from 2007 paved the way for OnlyFans and the adult entertainment industry at large -- but Riley Reid, a bona fide OF star these days, is kinda crapping on his opinion.

Riley -- who has over 2 million followers -- tells TMZ ... yes, Ray and Kim's sex tape was influential at the time, but she actually gives more credit to Pam and Tommy Lee's sex tape -- which was stolen and illegally released -- a bit more historical credit in this regard.

A Wisconsin dad is under fire for rushing the stage at his daughter's high school graduation to shove a school official from the handshake lineup ... and some think race is involved.

This went down at Baraboo High School last week, when they were holding their ceremony for the outgoing seniors -- and video captured this awkward moment ... when a girl was walking across the stage and preparing to shake hands with school district bigwigs.

The superintendent, who's Black, is at the end of the line and he's ready to put 'er there -- but the girl's father pops up out of nowhere from the crowd, whisking him away fast.

Power Slap star Sheena Bathory's bod is officially summer ready -- she just underwent Brazilian Butt Lift surgery ... and she said she's thrilled with the results!

The 32-year-old former bodybuilder -- who's also a mixed martial artist -- got the cosmetic procedure done on Wednesday in Florida ... transferring fat from her triceps and waist to her glutes in order to give them more volume.

Shortly after the procedure, she said she was in a bit of pain ... but on Thursday, she shared with her 200,000-plus followers on Instagram that she's loving what she's seeing post-op so far.

Donald Trump's supporters started dropping left and right outside his Arizona rally this week ... fainting while waiting in line to get in -- with many saying extreme heat's to blame.

New video taken outside Dream City Church in Phoenix Thursday is making the rounds online showing paramedics running around the area to help out several people who appear overcome by the heat -- sitting close to 110 degrees.

Check out the clips ... Ben Brown -- a reporter for ABC15 in Phoenix -- posted video documenting the scene, including a clip showing one individual receiving an IV underneath a couple white pop-up tents.

"Vampire Diaries" star Paul Wesley is sharing a positive update on Nina Dobrev after his former costar got into a gnarly crash on her E-bike ... telling us she's going to pull through.

We got Paul and his model girlfriend Natalie Kuckenburg at LAX on Thursday and our photog asked him if he had reached out to his fellow 'VD' alum since her accident.

Paul says Nina told him she's doing better after needing surgery for her injuries ... and he says she's expecting to make a full recovery.

Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal don't fight for another month, but the action was well underway at their press conference on Thursday ... with "Gamebred" getting in the middle of a violent scuffle.

It all went down in Anaheim just minutes ago ... shortly after Diaz stormed off the stage without doing a ceremonial face-off with his opponent.

It's unclear what sparked it all -- we're assuming trash talk -- but in a video of the fracas, Masvidal is shown slapping a man's hand down -- and then the fists started flying.

50 Cent says his entire interaction with Rep. Lauren Boebert was blown out of proportion because the photo-op everyone's talking about is all he had time for, plus he ain't exactly looking for a new GF.

Of course, that's not the impression 50 or Lauren gave the internet after they posted flirty exchanges to go with the cozy pics they snapped Wednesday at the White House.

We caught 50 out in NYC promoting the final season of "Power Book II: Ghost" and he laughed off the notion he and LB have a congressional romance blossoming.
