Seeing David Archuleta's mother watch the music video for his new song -- one he could not have written without her -- might be more emotional than the song itself.

TMZ got this exclusive clip ... showing the former "American Idol" runner-up sitting with his mom, Lupe Bartholomew, for her first viewing of the vid for, "Hell Together" -- as he tells her she's the inspiration behind the track.

Lupe visibly reacts to the images -- it features a lot of home video footage she helped pick out, scenes of David singing in a church with angelic-looking women dancing.

The Backstreet Boys are giving people ideas on how to spend Cinco de Mayo ... showing fans how the guys celebrate -- with a vid of Howie Dorough slamming shots.

The band's official account posted the video Sunday morning ... and, it follows HD's drinking odyssey as he fires down tequila shot after tequila shot at Howie's Guac and Shots.

And, man ... Howie really knows how to hold his liquor -- downing at least eight shots in the sweltering Mexico heat while apparently MCing one of the events.

Snoop Dogg and T-Pain are doing their part to keep the peace on the Vegas Strip by giving throngs of pissed-off fans something to cheer about after the "Lovers & Friends" festival was canceled last minute.

The duo put on an impromptu show Saturday afternoon at the Ayu Dayclub at Resorts World ... where everyone was bummed the hell out earlier in the day.

T-Pain's dance moves -- including some serious crip walking -- and Snoop MC'ing lightened spirits and got some folks to loosen up after severe disappointment.

Call Rihanna the queen of speed, at least for this weekend, because she and A$AP Rocky are holding court down in Miami as the city is packed with celebs in town for the F1 Grand Prix.

The celeb couple hosted an event Saturday night for Puma ... the athletic gear co. they both rep. The festivities included a stop in a huge arcade, complete with racing simulators and VR goggles ... which A$AP slipped on as RiRi watched.

While A$AP rocked a custom Puma helmet during the event, Rihanna was flaunting her new pink hairdo.

Snoop Dogg y T-Pain están poniendo de su parte para mantener la paz en el Strip de Las Vegas, dándole a las multitudes de fans cabreados algo por lo que alegrarse después de que el festival "Lovers & Friends" fuera cancelado a último minuto.

El dúo hizo un show improvisado el sábado por la tarde en el Ayu Dayclub en Resorts World, donde todo el mundo estaba deprimido en un comienzo.

Los movimientos de baile de T-Pain y el carisma de Snoop aligeraron los espíritus y alegraron un poco las cosas luego de la decepción.

Madonna se despidió a lo grande. La cantante cerró su gira mundial en Brasil con más de un millón de personas en la arena.

Según los informes, 1.6 millones de amantes de Madonna acudieron al concierto gratuito en la famosa playa de Copacabana de Río de Janeiro, y fue un espectáculo total. En un momento dado, la multitud se sincronizó lo suficiente como para cantar "Like A Virgin".

La última noche de la gira -que empezó algo accidentada el pasado octubre- se convirtió en un hito para ella. El mar de fans de Río rompió el récord anterior de la diva, que fue un mísero 130.000 en París en 1987.

Leave it to Madonna to go out with a bang ... that's how you'd have to describe the insane scene in Brazil when she closed out her world tour with more than a million people in the sand.

A reported 1.6 million Madonna lovers turned out for the free concert on Rio de Janeiro's famed Copacabana Beach ... and it was a total spectacle. At one point, the massive crowd actually got in sync enough to take over singing "Like A Virgin."

The final night of Madge's tour, which got off to a rocky start last October, turned out to be a milestone for her. The sea of Rio fans destroyed the previous record for largest Madonna concert ... which was a measly 130,000 for her 1987 Paris show.

Algunas mujeres que adoran a Bad Bunny también adoran pelearse entre ellas, ya que varias peleas estallaron en su concierto el sábado por la noche, eclipsando momentáneamente el espectáculo.

Bunny fue ajeno a la violencia mientras actuaba en el American Airlines Center de Dallas, pero los puños volaron cuando varias fans se enfrentaron de manera brutal.

Échale un vistazo al salvaje video, dos mujeres se agarran del cabello y se lanzan puñetazos mientras una de ellas se las arregla para disparar una ráfaga de golpes. Si fuera una pelea de la UFC, el árbitro la habría terminado... así de brutal fue la paliza.

Dua Lipa y los guionistas de "SNL" no dejaron escapar a cierto político pistolero y cazador de perros, y en su lugar convirtieron a la gobernadora Kristi Noem en el chiste para empezar el programa.

La cantante fue la anfitriona y acto musical el sábado por la noche, y promocionó su nuevo álbum "Radical Optimism" durante su monólogo. Dua explicó que el título del álbum se refiere a "mirar el lado bueno de cualquier situación".

Ella procedió a ofrecer algunos ejemplos con la ayuda de miembros del elenco en la audiencia, y fue cuando Heidi Gardner se levantó con un sombrero MAGA y dijo: "Hola, soy la gobernadora de Dakota del Sur Kristi Noem", abriendo la puerta para que Dua la cortara rápidamente.

Some women who love Bad Bunny also love beating the hell out of each other ... as a few vicious fights erupted at his Saturday night concert, momentarily stealing the show.

Bunny was oblivious to the violence as he performed at the American Airlines Center in Dallas -- but the fists were flying as several female fans pummeled each other like they were playing Street Fighter.

Check out the wild video ... 2 not-so-gentlewomen each grabbed handfuls of the other's hair as one of them managed to fire off an absolute flurry of punches. If it was a UFC fight, the ref would've ended it, the beatdown was that brutal.

Dua Lipa and the 'SNL' writers didn't let a certain gun-toting, dog-shooting politician off the hook ... and instead made Gov. Kristi Noem the punchline to kick off the show.

The singer was the host and musical act Saturday night, and shouted out her new album "Radical Optimism" during her monologue. Dua explained the album title refers to "looking on the bright side of any situation."

She proceeded to offer some examples with help from cast members in the audience, which is when Heidi Gardner stood up in a MAGA hat and said, "Hi, I'm South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem" ... opening the door for Dua to cut her off quickly.

Dua Lipa's looks over the years are not going Houdini!

Here is a 20-year-old version of Dua showin' some sass and side-eye while onstage during the Wireless Festival at Finsbury Park in London, England (left). This was just one year prior to releasing her mega hits, "IDGAF" and "New Rules."

And, nearly a decade later during a live performance, "The Pencil Sharpener" pro brought the same sexy-sass she's been giving for years just ahead of dropping her latest album "Radical Optimism" (right).

"Training Season" is in session and her beauty is clearly no "illusion."

But the question on everyone's mind is ...

¡Los looks de Dua Lipa con el paso de los años son irresistibles!

Esta es la versión de hace 20 años de Dua mostrando un poco de descaro y mirando de reojo mientras estaba en el escenario del Wireless Festival en Finsbury Park en Londres, Inglaterra (izquierda). Justo un año antes de lanzar sus grandes éxitos "IDGAF" y "New Rules".

Y casi una década después, durante una actuación en vivo, la estrella de "The Pencil Sharpener" mostró el mismo descaro sexy que la caracteriza justo antes de presentar su último álbum "Radical Optimism" (derecha).

"Training Season" está en marcha y está claro que su belleza no es ninguna "illusion".

Pero la pregunta es ...

Kendrick Lamar's escalating his rap beef with Drake ... labeling him as a "pedophile" in another new diss track less than 24 hours after releasing "Meet The Grahams."

The 17-time Grammy winner released the new song -- titled "Not Like Us" -- about an hour ago ... and, in it, Kendrick finds a series of different ways to refer to Drake as a pedophile before just calling him one.

To start with, the cover art shows Drake's home with sex offender beacons all over it ... the implication's clear enough from the beginning before KL really digs in against the man he's beefing with.

Travis Kelce's officially at the Kentucky Derby ... arriving in a suit fit for a classic movie gangster -- but, he's without his very special someone.

The Chiefs tight end embodied every little bit of his nickname at the race Saturday ... cutting up the fashion game as only Killa Trav can. Just check out the pics flooding in from the KD -- a spectacular white suit and fedora Don Corleone could appreciate.

Despite his killa looks, Trav showed off his 'fit alone ... no Taylor Swift in sight -- and, we can only speculate as to the reasons why.

Anna Nicole Smith's daughter Dannielynn Birkhead's all grown up ... rocking an outfit previously worn by Janet Jackson and attending Kentucky Derby events with her dad, Larry.

The 17-year-old appeared in Larry's recent Instagram post ... smiling in a couple cute father-daughter pics on the way to the Barnstable-Brown Gala -- a star-studded lead-up to Saturday's big race.

Check out the pic ... Dannielynn's in a full black get-up here, covered in zippers Larry said he bought from Julien's -- a popular auction house.
