‘Shark Tank’ stars ran up a big tab: Kevin O’Leary and Barbara Corcoran dined at Joe’s Stone Crab in South Beach last week as part of a group of eight. The bill came to $972.23 including tax — but the tip wasn’t revealed, and neither star admitted who paid.

The order included the classics: Large signature crab claws totaled $399.75, plus sides like corn, Brussels sprouts and broccolini at $15.95 each. Dessert featured two slices of the 113-year-old restaurant’s key lime pie at $14.95 apiece.

Sydney Sweeney was cut from a major sequel: The actress filmed a cameo for “The Devil Wears Prada 2,” but her scene didn’t make the final cut, Entertainment Weekly reports. A source called it purely “a creative decision.” The film hits theaters May 1.

A ‘Miami Vice’ reboot is officially happening: Austin Butler and Michael B. Jordan will star as Crockett and Tubbs in “Miami Vice ‘85,” directed by Joseph Kosinski of “Top Gun: Maverick” fame. The film is set for release Aug. 6, 2027.

Production starts later this year: The movie will be specially formatted for IMAX. Series creator Anthony Yerkovich is on the screenwriting team. According to IMDB, the project is listed as in “pre-production.”
