Sometimes a simple car pic tells a story ... such was the case Wednesday night with Tyga and KylieJenner. The pair arrived at the Roxy in West Hollywood in Tyga's new Lambo.
As for the story ... it seems to reinforce what we're being told -- Tyga and Kylie are still together. They just want to keep their professional lives separate.
Second, Tyga's got a Lambo and that's interesting because he's been sued, sued and sued again for owing money.
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were offered millions of dollars for the first pics of baby Saint ... TMZ has learned.
We're told the offers -- from various magazines -- range from $2 million to $2.5 million. We're told the magazines want more than just a head shot of Saint ... they want the full family, including North. Candid family shots are part of the offer.
As for whether the financial offer is in range of what it's worth ... we're told it's dead on.
Here's the snag. Our Kardashian sources tell us at this point they're "almost certain" they will reject all offers.
You may recall, the last time around, Kanye unveiled the first pics of North West on Kris Jenner's talk show. That show is long gone, but Khloe's got a new show launching in a few weeks.
The NYPD is on the hunt for these two women -- who were allegedly hanging at Derrick Williams' NYC apartment before more than $600,000 in jewelry went missing earlier this month.
Cops say the two Hispanic mystery ladies entered the 24-year-old's place around 5:20 AM on Dec. 19th ... stayed for about 90 minutes and left.
Later that day, the NY Knicks player says he noticed roughly $617k in jewelry was missing -- including a $145,000 watch, a $25k diamond Hennessy chain and a $35,000 Rolex, so says the NY Daily News.
The items stolen from Williams' Tribeca apartment were in a $6,000 Louis Vuitton jewelry case. It contained four Rolex watches, an Audemars Piguet timepiece and a gold Versace "Jesus" medallion, NYPost.com said. One of the watches cost $145,000, while a diamond chain displaying the Hennessy logo is worth $25,000, according to the News.
The 24-year-old Williams got acquainted with the women at Up & Down nightclub in Chelsea after he returned to New York following Friday's game in Philadelphia, the Post said. The women were later among a group of people to accompany Williams' to his Tribeca apartment and the only two he didn't know previously.
After arriving at the apartment at 5:20 a.m, Williams invited the two women into his bedroom. Both departed about 90 minutes later.

The couple was spotted back together at the American Music Awards 2015 in Los Angeles on Sunday, November 22 where the 18-year-old teased she was ready to take her relationship to the next level. While leaving the award's after party at The Nice Guy in West Hollywood, Kylie was asked if she was going to marry the 26-year-old rapper and in the video shared by x17Online, she could be heard quickly replying, "Yes".
Meanwhile, Tyga kept a locked lip when asked about marriage plans, letting his bae do all the talking.
The much talked-about pair were earlier spotted walking hand-in-hand into Justin Bieber's party after the award show. Kylie proudly smiled to the camera men as she walked beside her man.
The Game's penis had a good run on Instagram, but all good things must come to an end ... and the popular photo sharing app has put the kibosh on his package.
The pics -- which showcase Game in his underwear -- were posted three weeks ago and remained up ever since -- despite Insta's tough policies on nudity and such. But the pics have been flagged so much Instagram finally took notice.
The pics remain up as of this posting, but we're told Instagram is in the process of telling Game about the takedown.
To which The Game replied with a video on Instagram:

Executive producer of CW shows "Arrow," and "Flash," Marc Guggenheim has shared the first photo from an upcoming crossover, which will air the week after Thanksgiving.
The crossover which will also feature characters from "DC's Legends of Tomorrow," - Hawkman (Falk Hentschel) and Hawkgirl (Ciara Renée).
Speaking on the difference between last year's crossover and the upcoming one, Stephen Amell (Arrow) said to Zap2it;
“Last year was designed so that if you were a fan of one show or a fan of the other show, you could enjoy 108 of ‘Flash’ and 308 of ‘Arrow’ independent of one another.”
According to him, it's a different case this year;
"In fact, most of the ‘Flash’ episode takes place in Star City, and most of the ‘Arrow’ episode takes place in Central City. We have a common villain, which was not the case last year, and just in general, we’ve done an excellent job of weaving not just two shows, but three shows together.”
