Liev Schrieber says his child walking a runway at Paris Fashion Week doesn’t mean there’s a new Hollywood nepo baby on the block.

We got the “Ray Donovan” star at the new Planet Hollywood in New York City and our photog asked him about his kid, Kai, making her runway debut at the Valentino show.

Liev isn’t buying the notion that Kai is riding her father’s famous coattails and getting top modeling gigs because of her parents.

Kai’s mother is Naomi Watts, but Liev says Kai didn’t have a choice when it came to her parents or their professions … so it’s unfair to label 16-year-old Kai’s success a product of nepotism.

The WNBA could be adding a bit of mom’s spaghetti flavor to it in the near future … TMZ Sports has learned Eminem is currently in talks to join a bid for an expansion team.

A spokesperson for the legendary rapper tells us … Marshall has had some preliminary discussions about securing a spot in an ownership group that’s trying to bring the W back to Detroit.

So far, we’re told he hasn’t officially signed on just yet … although, he does apparently have some big interest.

The WNBA currently features 13 teams … but in 2026, it’ll have 15 — when Portland and Toronto join the fold. In 2028, the league is looking to add at least one more squad … and Detroit’s already submitted its proposal to be a pick. Jared Goff, Grant Hill and Chris Webber all reportedly helping lead the charge for MoTown.

There, of course, is some stiff competition … Austin, Charlotte, Cleveland and Houston, among others, are all in the running too — as is Kansas City, which has the backing of Patrick Mahomes.

WNBA commish Cathy Engelbert will have to make the choice at some point in the upcoming year or so … but perhaps her decision would get a little easier if Em’s in the fray?

“These are the best days of our lives” … because TMZ has learned the brand-new cast for Season 12 of “Vanderpump Rules” will begin filming in a few weeks.

Production sources tell us … the rebooted Bravo series will go into production in early April. We’re told the cast is made up of 14 members … some will be full-time and others will be friends of the cast.

We’re told the rebooted version of the long-running series will keep its original formula, which will take viewers inside the hookups, feuds and drama surrounding Lisa Vanderpump‘s West Hollywood restaurant, SUR. We’re told the SUR-vers’ homes and lives outside the restaurant will be the meat of the show.

Our sources say the incoming new cast members finalized their contracts last week.

As we reported … the network told us in November LVP would return for a new season, but would be surrounded by a new cast.

TMZ broke the story … most of the OG cast members weren’t too surprised by the new direction when they were informed of the decision … especially after the show was put on pause back in April.
