TMZ on TV - 11/2/26

Today on TMZ. Okay, under the category what not to do during Halloween 2026, the winner is Martha Stewart. She dressed as a homeless person and she is addressing the backlash and just making it worse. She said, my Halloween costume was intended to bring more awareness to the very serious subject of homelessness. So can I ask you something? When people dress as a pirate, do they want to bring more awareness to pirates? Yes, to piracy, yes. Tom Brady might be adding an eighth ring to his trophy case after his new girlfriend, Candace Swanpool, was seen with what looks like to be an engagement ring on her finger. No way. It's on the left hand ring finger? On the finger. But why is she wearing this if they're not engaged? The one thing is for sure, men don't wear wedding rings if they're not. We don't wear them even if we are married. I'm married. The ex-spouses of Amy Robach and TJ Holmes got their own happy ending. Andrew Shue and Meryl Feibig got married on Sunday. If you had to wager, neither of these couples can ever split up. Because if they split up, they will have lost the, like, arms race with the other couple. They have to stay together in misery. This is one case where spite and resentment are keeping couples together. Let's do it together. Bill Maher said, Eating with Trump is like dating Taylor Swift. It's a lot of laughs at the time, but later on they're tearing you into a s***. I tell ya. MAGA and Swifties do have kind of a lot in common. Interesting! The fanatic cultishness. What's scarier, the MAGA army or the Swifties? Well, let's say we have MAGA and Swifties in the room. Who are you more afraid of, Babcock or Courtney? I'm more afraid of Courtney. Of course you are! And also, underneath, Babcock's a nice guy. Yeah. Martha Stewart's decision to dress as an unhoused person for Halloween was staggeringly obtuse. But now she says she did it for a good reason. Listen, AWARENESS! Awareness! She said... I am distressed that my Halloween costume, which was intended to bring more awareness to the very serious subject of homelessness, has offended people, which was never my intention. So can I ask you something? When people dress as a pirate, do they want to bring more awareness to pirates? Depends whether they're the Shiver Me Timbers or the I'm the Captain Now kind of pirate. Martha question, though. If her intention was to bring awareness, then why was the caption, my QVC candles are perfect for Halloween? Yeah. She was using it to sell candles. Hey, she could raise homeless awareness and sell candles at the same time, damn it. But the question here is, why, Martha? Martha Stewart is so smart. How is she thinking? Is she smart enough to know that this is not going to go well? No, I have a theory. I have a theory, because her dermatologist posted a video of her getting lasers on her face two days before Halloween. So I feel like she couldn't wear makeup, and then just She was like, I can't do blackface. I guess I should be homeless. Like, what? There's more options than that. To be fair, Martha says she supports homeless charities, though the one she mentioned says they have no connection to the homeless. Bottom line, she made a bad call, but Martha is still America's grandma. I think we let this one go. Let's let this one go. She gets a pass, I guess. Yeah, give her a pass. She's done worse. I know. She already went to jail for something kind of dumb, so. You buy that. So, thanks for all the awareness, Martha Stewart. Next year, maybe just go as a ghost or something. Bill Belichick and Jordan Hudson have been broken up for almost a year. So we broke it this weekend that they split, that they're on good terms. They still have business ventures that they're working with. Why? We don't know why, but she is apparently already seeing people. Is he seeing people? Like cardiologists or something? I don't know. Cardiologists! She's still a part of UNC also. Wait a minute, so she's still working for him? She's still working at UNC. She's still on the sidelines. It's also interesting that USA Today spoke to people at UNC, and no one at the university knew that they broke up either. So they were really keeping this under wraps. Another interesting thing is we obtained this morning some photos of them on vacation on the 4th of July weekend in Nantucket together. It looks pretty friendly. There was no PDA. He has his bike. She's like helping him walk along. Oh my god. Well, she's still his caregiver. I mean, what is she gonna do? What am I going to do? I mean, come on. And now it's Tom Brady and supermodel Candice Swanepoel in... No way! So Tom Brady might be adding an eighth ring to his trophy case after his new girlfriend, Candice Swanepoel, was seen with what looks like to be an engagement ring. No way. On her finger. No way. At least on the same finger. No way. Okay, hold on. They've only been dating since June, so wouldn't this be a little fast? When you can lock down a Victoria's Secret legend, maybe you do it. That is an engagement ring. I think it's an engagement ring. I have a ring that looks like that saved on Pinterest. In case you get engaged to me? Just in case. What an odd thing. All that's missing is the groom. Well, maybe you can use Etsy to custom make one. Anyway, are congratulations in order here or what? This is the first time we've seen her out since the news broke that they were together. I can't imagine this is so. It would be... Mind-boggling. Hey, when you know, you know. Unless this isn't an engagement ring and just some sort of decoy. Do single girls ever wear rings to keep guys away? Yeah. One thing is for sure, men don't wear wedding rings if they're not. We don't wear them even if we are married. Right. Single, ladies. Great. Oh, look at that. Still no takers. So, congrats, Tom and Candace. No way. Or not. Who the hell knows what this is? The ex-spouses of Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes got their own happy ending. They got married on Sunday. I thought they just got engaged. They did, but they got married quick. Andrew Shue and Marilee Feibig tied the knot on Sunday at their country estate. God, that was fast. They had a nice ceremony. It was a formal ceremony. And Marilee and TJ's daughter, Sabine, was there as a bridesmaid for Marilee. Wait, were TJ and Amy not invited to the wedding? Almost certainly not. Why would they be invited? Don't you think, if you had to wager, neither of these couples can ever split up. Because if they split up, they will have lost the arms race with the other couple. They have to stay together. They have to stay together in misery. Right. This is one case where it's half. Spite and resentment are keeping couples together. Yeah. Yeah. I don't love you anymore, but God, I hate them. Stronger than love. 24 hours in Vegas. Three TMZ creators. Three luxury suites. And only one shot at a $20,000 prize. Who walks away the big winner? That's up to you. We are having a contest. And we want you to vote on who wins. Luca, Talia, and Chris. They went to Vegas for 24 hours and we are having a contest on who had the most awesome 24 hours. Winner gets a $20,000 package to the F1 Grand Prix. First up, the best hotel. Hit it! So I stayed at a Sky Villa at Caesar's Palace. It was definitely the nicest hotel room I've ever been in. That's not saying much. Oh my gosh, man. Because it's got an insane lounge with a pool table and a giant bathroom. It's like, which shower do I want to choose? Why not use both? But hold on, because let's see what Talia's up to at Resorts World. I stayed at the Chairman's Villa at Crockford's at Resorts World. How did you get there? A red Bentley picked me up from the airport. Fancy! And check out this suite! It's a four bedroom, 7,500 square foot villa. Panoramic views. There's an executive show kitchen. And then you have an entertainment room. We can set up a karaoke machine for you. And then the butler brought my karaoke machine in. Which we can't play for you, cuz. I sang... Some copyrighted music. I'm sick. Anywho, moving on to Chris. I had the best suite by far. I stayed at the Hardwood Suite at the Palms. I had an entire basketball court. How many baskets did you make? Okay, initially, not a lot. It's hot. Zero baskets the whole time. I had a secret whiskey room that was behind a bookcase. Insane! So, whose hotel wins? So, go to the website, vote, and whoever gets the most votes, they're going to get this F1. Bill Maher said having dinner with Donald Trump is like dating Taylor Swift. On real time, he has a quote. He said... Eating with Trump is like dating Taylor Swift. It's a lot of laughs at the time, but later on, they're tearing you into a... I tell you. What? How does he know... How does he know that? Well, that's exactly what Taylor Swift does. When Jake Gyllenhaal dated her, he didn't say, oh, someday she'll write a song about me. It's totally on point. MAGA and Swifties do have kind of a lot in common. Oh, for sure. Interesting. The fanatic cultishness. The MAGA army is scarier than the Swifties, though. Ooh, I don't know. We've never rushed the Capitol. They would, though. They would. No, we wouldn't. No, if she was there with, like, free T-shirts or something, they would rush the Capitol. Oh, it's over. Never. It is true. If she unleashed the Swifties as an angry mob, I would flee. Well, let's see. We have MAGA and Swifties in the room. Who are you more afraid of, Babcock or Kortney? I'm more afraid of Kortney. That's important. Underneath, Babcock's a nice guy. Yeah. Coming up... Congresswoman Haley Stevens shocked everyone by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed. This was a crisis of conscience for her. She does not believe in what El-Sayed believes. For her to risk that kind of political suicide to speak her mind, I think she deserves some credit. Plus... Selma Blair is breaking her silence over the plane incident. Not one day ever have I intended to. Hurt anyone. Well, the word intended means she didn't intend it, but did do it. I think the best code I could figure is, I was out of my head. Yeah, right. Coming up. Taylor Swift will do anything to make her special guests happy. And that includes giving Nelly 50K in a McDonald's bag. We can? Yeah. Be right back. And now, the continuing saga of Haley Stevens versus Abdul El-Sayed. This is just a weight off my shoulders. Congresswoman Haley Stevens shocked everyone over the weekend by endorsing Republican Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed for the open Michigan Senate seat. Abdul said that I was no longer welcome in his campaign and that I should stay away. And he's right. And that's why I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate. This, of course, after Democratic candidate El-Sayed had not openly condemned a political ad many feel is anti-Semitic. She was going to bed that evening saying she was going to stick with Abdul El-Sayed, woke up, and she came to the realization that she needed to endorse Mike Rogers. Cut to an awkward CNN interview on Sunday. Abdul has been getting angrier and angrier. I was trying to help. And I endorsed him. That ad was very painful. I woke up this morning clear-eyed, fresh, and focused on what was in my heart. This is not making sense, especially since El-Sayed did finally disavow the ad on Saturday. So why the sudden switch? Two theories. One, she never expected El-Sayed would actually disavow the ad because he hadn't for so long. When he finally did it, She's like, oh, I can't use that excuse, but I don't want to vote for him because of all the things he said. Or theory two, her fiance convinced her. Because he's anti-El-Sayed, right? He does hate him. He was very strong, very strong, and said that he was voting for Rogers. Or maybe it's just a case of good old-fashioned revenge. When someone says to you, you are not welcome in my campaign, you take the message. Thanks, Haley. We know you're just one person here. I'm just one person here. Taylor Swift will do anything to make her special guests happy, and that includes giving Nelly 50K in a McDonald's bag. Nelly was on The Breakfast Club and he's telling this story. Listen man, that woman called me one night, just out the blue. Taylor Swift said, my friends and I just made a dance to Hot in Here. What are the chances you could be in Houston tomorrow? I don't want to disrespect you. I don't really have a budget like that. We only have like... $50,000, you know, just... I said, can you put that in a McDonald's bag? I like that. So she sends her private jet. She puts him up in the presidential suite at the Four Seasons. We did it. She was like, yo, three minutes. Three minutes, her father, Robert Earl, comes out. Tosses me a McDonald's bag, $50,000 cash. Hey, how you doing? I was like, oh. Wait, cash? Yeah, $50,000 cash in a McDonald's bag. So she had to order McDonald's to get the bag. Did she eat the food or dump it out? Oh, good question. Celebrities do eat McDonald's, guys. Of course. What does a Big Mac cost now? $6.72 on average for just the burger. McDonald's cheeseburgers, when I was a kid, were $0.35. But then the Civil War broke out. It changed everything. Then we had to ration the cheese. Thank you. But I would have did it for free. You know what I'm saying? And you deserve to hear from me directly, and I'm sorry that it's taken this long. That's Selma Blair finally breaking her silence on her shocking airport arrest in October, where she was charged with... Freaking out on the plane, hurting flight attendants, then when they landed, kicking a cop multiple times, and then kicking a nurse at the hospital. She has finally addressed the incident, kind of. And while she says she can't say much because her lawyers advised her not to… What I can tell you, though, is very simple and the truest thing I know about myself in that not one day ever have I intended to hurt or frighten anyone. And Selma's video honestly kind of raises more questions than it answers. For example, What are the consequences here? Did Delta ban her? They have, I haven't made an announcement. But they ban people. I mean, airlines have banned people for life before. For a lot less than this, by the way. Yeah, I just wonder what the deal is here now. Can she fly, period? Unclear, as are other details of this story. But when she's ready to elaborate, the world is ready to listen. Good luck, Selma Blair. So to the people that I disappointed, that I hurt, that I frightened, I am so sorry. I mean, it's going to be a very big food night. A lot of people are going to be ordering pizza, so. Andrew Zimmern, the host of Bizarre Foods, we got him at LAX, and we talked to him about election night. I hope everyone goes out to vote. Election night is like a big deal for America. Oh, so there's a special food you can get? Yeah, like what do you suggest people get? For election night, you're going to want to celebrate if some of the news makes you happy and you're going to want to drown your sorrows in good food if some of the news makes you sadder. He said it's a long night. You may want to have a lot of snacks on hand. I mean, Super Bowl style menus are not a bad idea. Do people have parties? Not for midterm. Not for midterm, usually for presidential. Oh, I would never have an election party. Why? Because if it's a cliffhanger. I mean, I want him out by a certain time, and I don't want people hanging around. That's any party, dude. That's any party. I'm starting to speak now. I hope everyone goes out to vote. Coming up!
