Tristan Thompson is putting down roots in L.A. -- and not far from estranged baby mama Khloe Kardashian's Calabasas home. The baller plunked down $6.5 million for a mini-mansion in Encino, presumable to be close to his TWO kids -- True, with Khloe, and Prince, with Jordan Craig.

While the Cavaliers player stays in his Cleveland home during the season, he apparently wants to spend time on the west coast during the off season and he'll spend it in a 9800-square-foot, 7-bedroom, 8-bath manse with a movie theater, pool, outdoor kitchen and more!

The home is about a 25-minute drive from Khloe's huge estate -- just enough distance so that he's not peering over her fence or knocking on her door to borrow sugar and closer into town so that when he goes on the prowl for girls at the clubs, he'll have a shorter drive home with his hoes. How practical!

Umm no i didn’t. We only spoke about Game of Thrones 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ https://t.co/EnItnYlq0R

You go, girl!

Kylie Jenner clapped back at Jennifer Lopez's fiance Alex Rodriguez after he claimed, in a Sports Illustrated interview that the young billionaire talked about her finances at the Met Gala.

The Lip Kit mogul took to Twitter to contradict the claim, saying that everyone at the table -- including Donatalla Versace, sis Kendall Jenner and others, talked about Game of Thrones. That's some heady stuff, folks!

A-Rod had claimed Jenner talked about "how rich she is," after Forbes named her the youngest-ever self-made billionaire. But Kylie says NOT TRUE! Who do YOU believe?

It’s 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain. Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven. We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side.

Beth Chapman, wife to Duane "Dog" Chapman from the popular reality series Dog the Bounty Hunter has passed away in a Honolulu hospital at age 51, the family has confirmed.

Chapman had been placed in a medically-induced coma as she battled stage 2 throat cancer. The couple announced Beth's diagnosis on Facebook in 2017. It was thought the cancer had been completely removed, as the couple revealed in their A&E special Dog & Beth: Fight of Their Lives, but the disease returned last year.

The couple raised 12 children between their Colorado and Hawaii homes and their reality show, which ran from 2004 to 2012, was as much about their family-owned bounty hunting business as it was about their marriage and their family life. The pair and their son Leland stared in the CMT series Dog and Beth: On the Hunt from 2013 to 2015.

Her husband "Dog" told Us Weekly Beth was seeking alternative treatments and that his wife wouldn't take any prescription drugs, only over-the-counter, despite doctors' orders. Beth had said she was committed to regaining her health, saying, "I'm a fighter, I'm a strong fighter -- big-time survivor -- and I'm gonna fight this as vigorously as it's fighting me."

Dog announced Beth had been hospitalized in April, then released but June 23 he called for prayers as Beth lay in a coma in Hawaii.

Peace to Beth and her family.

Check out the happy threesome!

Jailey pal Kendall Jenner joined Mr. and Mrs. Bieber at the recording studio Tuesday night, dressed in head-to-toe Yeezy -- sweats and slides -- hanging with her fellow supermodel friend and her old pal Justin.

We spotted Kendall arriving at 8pm and the whole group left around 10pm.

It's good to see Hailey and Justin back together, after spending time apart while she was in New York working. And it's probably healthy for them to have a mutual friend around rather than being isolated in their marriage -- too much one-on-one time isn't always a good thing ...

Zendaya's the hard-working woman in Hollywood these days! The 22-year-old is out promoting Spider-Man Far From Home AND her edgy HBO series Euphoria which premiered just last week. Talk about doing double duty!

So yesterday, Zendaya and her Spider-Man co-star Tom Holland hit Good Morning America to promote the new film and today, Zen was on her way to tape The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. Of course wild fans have been following the young star everywhere she goes and despite knowing the ropes and having serious stans for years, Zendaya still looks surprised at how many people turn up to take selfies with her and get her autograph. She so cute!

Real Housewives of Orange County's Gina Kirschenheiter's husband Matt was arrested this past weekend after a domestic violence call Saturday. But the trouble didn't stop there, of course ...

Matthew was released the following morning around 1am, without bail. He wasn't officially charged with a crime but law enforcement says the arrest was related to a domestic violence call.

The incidence happened only days before Gina was in court for a protective order -- she had requested an emergency hearing due to allegations of violence by Matt. The couple are in the middle of a divorce but seemed to have reconciled. We're guessing that reconciliation is OFF now.

Just ten days ago, Gina was wishing her now-estranged hubby a happy birthday with this touching post: "Happy birthday to the man who has held my hand for the last 14 years despite the ups and downs. Thanks for being the best father to our kids, and the best friend a girl could ask for. Wouldn’t want to take on this crazy life with anyone else. Like you said, ‘I’m your person and you’re mine.'"

Wow! Things change ... and quickly!

Be humble! Sit down!

Apparently Kylie Jenner wasn't so humble at the Met Gala last month, sitting at an A-list table with the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Alex Rodriguez and Donatella Versace ...

A-Rod, in an interview with Sports Illustrated says the young billionaire was talking about her bank: "We had a great table. We had Kylie [Jenner] and Kendall [Jenner] ... Kylie was talking about Instagram and her lipstick, and how rich she is." Ha! Gee, no politics, no current events, just dollar bills?

Funny enough, Us Weekly justifies Ky's bragadocious ways by saying she spoke on the top with "good reason" because just two months prior she was named Forbes youngest-ever self-made billionaire. Hey, you don't need to talk about your bank account with J Lo and A-Rod, though! Other rich people don't wanna hear about how rich YOU are!

Hailey's baaaack! We haven't seen Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber together since they hopped a private jet together out of LA on the 13th. Bieber was home a few days later but Hailey's been in New York. In the meantime, Justin has spent time with his mentor Hillsong pastor Carl Lentz to whom he always looks for guidance when he's in need. So that makes us wonder ... was the time apart intentional? Did the you couple's marriage hit a rough patch?

Theories about Mr. and Mrs. Bieber are rampant online and while we don't want to contribute to conspiracies, we do think there's some there there. Justin has been very public about his battle with depression and anxiety and wanting to get mental fit before he starts a family with Hailey. That journey can take a toll on a relationship so maybe the pair decided some time apart would be good? Or maybe Hailey just had to work!

Speaking of work ... the supermodel is planning ahead for future business with her recent trademark filing but it hit a snag the other day when the US Patent Office DECLINED her filing! Why? Hubby Justin had already filed for the same patent more than ten years ago for "Bieber Beauty." Apparently Justin and his people had a vision for soaps and deodorants, personal hygiene and beauty products long before Hailey did. The good news is, as long as they stay together, they can both profit from the Bieber name!
