Chris Brown and Karrueche

He Says She Banged Drake

She Plays the 'Mistreatment' Card

Things have gotten even more nuclear between Chris Brown and his ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran ... and now Drake's been dragged into it, making him the Camilla Parker Bowles in the relationship.

Brown just ripped into Karrueche on Instagram, calling her a cheater, saying, "I was locked up for damn near 4 months and only got 1 visit from you while u was hosting parties and taking secret trips to Toronto, going on dates with Drake."

Chris fired his salvo after Karrueche went on the attack, explaining their breakup this way ... "I refuse to be repeatedly mistreated especially by someone who claims to love me. That's not love."

As if it really needs translation ... Chris is calling out Karrueche, who publicly made it look like she was standing by him when he was jailed earlier this year.  As for Drake ... well, you remember WIP nightclub, right?  That fight involved Rihanna and the 2 seemed to squash the beef ... but it's clearly back in force.

And as for Karrueche's comment ... after the Rihanna beating, the word "mistreated" has all sorts of meaning when it comes to Chris, and Karrueche knows it.

Karrueche added, "If you can't love me the right way, then don't love me at all."

Short story ... the atomic bomb war has just gone full hydrogen.

North Korean Government

Sony Hackers Don't Work For Us

But It Was 'Righteous'

12/7/2014 10:29 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF
breaking news

1207-kim-jong-un-getty-01The North Korean government insists it had nothing to do with the hack on Sony ... but at the same time they're rejoicing over the security breach.

A N.K. National Defense Commission spokesperson called the hacking "a righteous deed of the supporters and sympathizers [of] the DPRK," which condemned the movie.

The North Korean gov. filed a formal complaint with the U.N. over the James Franco/Seth Rogen flick "The Interview" -- which is all about assassinating Kim Jong Un -- calling it an "act of war.

The spokesperson also calls the hackers "champions of peace" ... and accuses South Korea of floating the false rumor of its involvement.

Dan Bilzerian

Booted From Miami Club

For Booting a Woman

EXCLUSIVE

Dan Bilzerian
was just called out by The Dirty for kicking a chick in the face ... and the video -- which is hard to watch -- is really hard to watch when you actually figure out what went down.

You see Dan on stage at LIV nightclub in Miami Beach ... surrounded by a sea of people, and he kicks someone in the face.

We're told the notorious playboy was kicked out of the club and booked it before police arrived.

Our club sources say the woman told cops she did not want to press charges so the cops left.

Sources close to Bilzerian say a bunch of women swarmed the stage and Dan kicked someone who was blocking a women he was trying to help onto the stage.

A rep for LIV says the club has officially banned Dan from coming back.

It definitely brings to mind the video of Bilzerian throwing a porn star off the roof of his home and into the pool.  She claims she hit the side of the pool and screwed up her leg.

David Letterman

Colbert's First Guest Should Be ...

EXCLUSIVE

120714_david_letterman_launchIt's the first clear sign Stephen Colbert will not be abandoning politics for entertainment when he takes over from David Letterman ... and the clue comes from Dave himself. 

David Letterman was heading into the Kennedy Center in D.C. Saturday night when our photog asked the late night host which guest he thinks should christen Colbert's show.

The 67 year-old TV legend has to think about it  ... but the choice is interesting for sure and maybe even revealing.

If it happens ... Fallon doesn't stand a chance.

Lady Gaga

I Just Gave My Dad

Control Over $24 MIL Malibu Pad

EXCLUSIVE

1205-lady-gaga-house-launch-fix-splash-3-1Lady Gaga trusts her dad and knows in her heart he would never betray her ... which is why she has relinquished full control over her first home ... an insane $24 MIL spread in Malibu. 

Joseph Germanotta now has power of attorney over the 6-acre estate. He can lease it, sell it, take loans against it ... pretty much do anything he wants, as long as it's in her interest.

Gaga went on Howard Stern recently and explained she runs her financial transactions past her dad for 2 reasons ... she trusts him more than anyone else, and he doesn't charge her for advice.

Germanotta -- who owns a restaurant in NYC -- could pull a Jamie Spears. Move to L.A. and start a catering business.

James Franco and Seth Rogen

Our Naughty Pics Were Also Stolen

... By Sony Hackers

12/7/2014 7:03 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF



James Franco and Seth Rogen were caught spooning just like John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and thanks to the Sony Hackers, they're on TV ... at least that's what Seth said on "Saturday Night Live."

Franco was hosting last night ... and during his monologue, James' BFF/co-star from "The Interview" rushed on stage and dropped the news.

Wise move ... making a joke out of the various Sony leaks.  The hackers promise there's more to come, so the joke is a good deflection.

And props for the Christmas card guys.

Casey Kasem

Amex Even Goes After the Dead

12/7/2014 12:25 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF
EXCLUSIVE

1205-casey-kasem-amex-getty-01Casey Kasem's life after death continues to be tumultuous ... American Express is gunning for more than $40K of the money he left behind. 

Amex filed a creditor's claim, claiming Casey or someone in his world racked up $41,046.70.

The late DJ was in no position to use his card for more than a year before his death ... maybe more.   Presumably his wife Jean used it for various purposes.

Casey's body is still above ground in Norway, waiting for a proper burial ... 6 months after his death.

Mase

Loses Lawsuit to Model

But She's Worth Way Less Than She Thinks

12/7/2014 12:15 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF
EXCLUSIVE

1205-mase-album-cover-2

The chick Mase plastered on ads to promote his new single has a grossly inflated value of herself ... so says a judge who just humiliated her.

Stephanie Delgado sued the rapper-turned-reverend-turned-rapper for stealing a pic from her Instagram page and plastering it on advertisements to promote his new single, "Why Can't We."

Delgado wanted $60,000 in damages ... presumably because she felt the pic was effective in hawking the single.

Mase never responded to her lawsuit so the judge entered a default judgment. But the judge wanted her to prove how much the pic was worth. She said she had once made $25,000 for a commercial shoot to promote an artist's music. The judge asked for proof but she said it was all done in cash and only knew she made the deal with a guy named Woo.

The judge decided a fair price for the pic was $7,500. 

Woo-hoo.

Redskins Star

BLASTS RGIII

'No One Believes In Him Anymore'

12/6/2014 12:45 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF
EXCLUSIVE

1205-robert-griffin-getty-01Robert Griffin III is a spoiled diva who cares more about branding himself than winning  ... so says a Washington Redskins player who tells us he's not the only one in the locker room who feels this way. 

The player -- who spoke with us on the condition of anonymity -- says playing with RG3 has been a nightmare this season ... and the locker room has lost faith in the QB. 

"No one is happy ... no one gets the hype around him anymore."

As bad as Griffin's play on the field has been this year, our guy tells us it's actually RG3's off-the-field demeanor that ticks off his fellow players the most.

"He's secluded and it affects us in the game. We don't have that real rapport. He's lost confidence and is complacent now."

There's more ... Griffin's mediocre season has made some of his teammates skeptical of not just his future with the Redskins ... but in the league period.

"I don't see him being in the NFL for that long," we're told ... "I think he goes into politics. He's good at that kinda thing."
