Matt James is clearly trying to look on the positive side of life despite his recent split … smiling through his difficult breakup with Rachael Kirkconnell on a trip to Nashville.

TMZ has obtained pictures of the reality television star out in the popular Southern City Sunday … walking through the streets in a bowler cap with a couple of pals.

James looks like he’s talking amiably with friends in the photos … though eyewitnesses say he seemed like he wanted to keep to himself.

It looks like Matt’s avoiding NYC for now — where he lived with Rachael until the two broke up last month.

As we previously reported … Matt announced the breakup in a social media post — writing a message to God to give both him and Rachael strength in the wake of their breakup.

James’ public post took Kirkconnell off-guard … ’cause she says she found out about it just before hopping on a 12-hour flight — a pretty stressful experience.

Despite their split, Rachael has denied all rumors of infidelity … saying it just felt like Matt was never going to be ready to commit — so they had to call it quits.

Julia Fox has no problem talking about taboos on her “Forbidden Fruits” podcast … and, she herself is a treat to look at — and, we’ve got a collection of her hottest shots to celebrate her 35th birthday.

The actress and writer is know for her eccentric outfits … and, she certainly hasn’t toned them down since first breaking into the mainstream after her turn as Julia De Fiore in the 2019 hit film “Uncut Gems.”

Check out this photo, where she channels Eve — on her own instead of hanging with Adam — in a leafy bra top and bottoms that left little to the imagination.

Fox is the queen of covering up JUST enough to avoid public indecency charges … take her appearance on this red carpet where she wore just a pair of nipple tassels — and drew eyes to her face with fierce makeup too.

Julia’s been focused on a series of projects outside acting in the last few years … like her memoir “Down The Drain” which came out in 2023 and her aforementioned podcast.

However, it looks like JF’s back on-set … ’cause she’s got a few projects coming out — including the Marlon Wayans flick “Him” which is set to come out sometime this year.

Kim Kardashian hit up the Fifteen Percent Gala in Los Angeles … and, she brought 100% of her style — stunning in a gorgeous black gown.

The reality television star turned fashion mogul pulled up to the event Saturday night … a gala in support of the Fifteen Percent Pledge — a promise businesses make to ensure at least 15% of the products on their shelves are from Black-owned businesses.

As soon as she arrived, KK was surrounded by photogs … who took a series of photos of her gorgeous gown that ya gotta see for yourself.

Kardashian wore an all-black dress with sheer material around her hips … and, when she turned, she revealed the entirety of her back to the cameras.

Kardashian’s dress only barely contained her famous backside … and, almost certainly captivated the assembled crowd.

Worth noting … Kim has a personal connection to the Fifteen Percent Pledge — ’cause Emma Grede, a founding partner in Kardashians’ SKIMS, is the Chairwoman of the project.

Grede cohosted last night’s event with the pledge’s founder, Aurora James, actress Tracee Ellis Ross and designer Brandon Blackwood.
