President Trump isn't taking Barack Obama's criticism of his White House makeover lying down ... firing back at his predecessor and claiming the place was a total mess when he moved back in.
POTUS unloaded on Obama during a speech in Mississippi on Monday ... after the former commander in chief took aim at Trump's renovations, joking the White House now looks like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory.
Neil Young is suing in the free world... taking President Donald Trump's political action committee to court after claiming it improperly used one of his tracks at a rally.
The singer-songwriter filed the copyright infringement suit against Trump 47 Committee ... claiming his song "Rockin' in the Free World" was played at the prez's Youngstown, Ohio, rally on October 12 without his permission.
While he specifically cites the Oct. 12 rally, Young claims Trump and his team have used the song "numerous times at other rallies designed to encourage Republican votes in the upcoming mid-term elections."
Donald Trump totally lost it Sunday night, going on a hilarious diatribe over Bill Maher, claiming he agreed to have a second dinner with the "Real Time" host because he believed Bill was a "major pothead" and "He's got to stop, it's very bad for his health."
It's the longest post-Trump -- or Natalie -- has ever written ... more than 1300 words. It meanders from anger toward B.M. -- "COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSER" -- to "The Apprentice" and how he says it was the greatest, most successful show in its day.
Kai Cenat has had it with his former pal and streaming partner, Reggie Travers, spreading alleged lies about him ... and now he's fired off a cease-and-desist, TMZ has learned.
TMZ obtained the letter, dated October 2, sent from Kai's legal team to Reggie. The letter accused Reggie of making videos containing false and misleading statements about Kai.
Kai's team said, "We want to be unequivocal: the suggestion that Mr. Cenat has ever engaged in any form of pedophilia, or exchanged sex for platforming any person, is categorically false."
It turns out Kim Kardashian's "absolutely not mad" at Paris Hilton for blowing off an interview for her book over a dozen times ... at least according to someone in Paris' inner circle.
A source close to Paris tells TMZ … the interview was being handled by an old assistant at her company, and it simply got lost in the shuffle of Paris' "hectic schedule."
We're told Paris "has a lot of projects happening at once and is constantly traveling, so coordinating interviews can sometimes be a challenge."
The girls are fighting ... because Paris Hilton blew off being interviewed for Kim Kardashian's biography a whopping 17 times.
"Citizen Kim" author Jonathan Van Meter told The Hollywood Reporter that Paris repeatedly bailed on him when he tried to interview her for Kim's authorized biography.
He told the outlet he had to go through Paris' team, whereas for other celebs he says all Kim had to do was send a text.
LeBron James dribbled around a question about President Trump ripping him after he was seen practicing his shot during the National Anthem ... basically laughing off the whole controversy.
The NBA star was asked about POTUS' blistering Truth Social post after his Philadelphia 76ers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, 114-106, Thursday night ... and he smirked when he heard the question.
Instead of taking accountability for disrespecting America with his antics in the season opener, LeBron tried ridiculing President Trump for calling him out…
“Slow news day at the office, you know.”
MJ didn’t divide people politically like LeBron has.

King James then replied, "Slow news day at the office, you know" ... and left it at that.
Funkmaster Flex's former coworker is claiming the viral brawl at Madison Square Garden -- during the Knicks-Sixers game -- got personal, with Flex allegedly getting physical with her.
A rep for TT Torrez -- who worked with Flex at HOT 97 before she left last year -- tells TMZ ... "What was meant to be an enjoyable evening out for Mrs. Torrez and her husband became a deeply disturbing and traumatic experience. A verbal exchange between her husband and Funkmaster Flex escalated into a physical confrontation in which Funkmaster Flex shoved her violently."

Billy says he spotted Amy talking to Demi Moore, who appeared to encourage her to approach him ... and things quickly got tense.
Tom Arnold went off with a big bang on Chuck Lorre ... calling him a terrible guy and a total hack who looked like a "sad clown" when he was axed from "Roseanne."
The actor and comedian hopped on social media to bash Chuck ... saying the guy might think he's beloved like fellow sitcom giant Norman Lear, when in fact he's "a terrible human ... who lies every time he opens his mouth."
He says Chuck might trash President Donald Trump -- whom Tom has no love for -- but he's really just like the controversial prez ... adding Chuck is a "bitter hack" who thinks his vanity cards are so dang witty when they're really not.
Joe Manganiello's new memoir must be making some waves with Tom Cruise ... because the book speculates that the legendary actor screwed Joe out of a starring role ... and Joe thinks it's because he shares an ex with Tom -- Sofía Vergara!
The New York Post got its hands on an advance copy of Joe's new book, "Bloodlines," and, in it, Joe claims that his team believes Tom prevented him from landing the lead role in Amazon's "Jack Reacher" series because the two men once dated Sofía.
In his memoir, Joe writes that Amazon bosses and production heads were initially dead set on giving the role to him ... but then the part suddenly went to another actor.
Kacey Musgraves is letting Kristi Noem have it after the ex-Secretary of Homeland Security threw some shade her way.
Noem had attempted to pit the country singer against rising star Ella Langley while endorsing Texas' conservative senate hopeful Ken Paxton over Democrat James Talarico.
Noem slammed the fact that Talarico showed up to Kacey's Dallas concert, saying ... "I'll take @ellalangleymusic over Kacey Muscraves any day. And if I'm choosin' Texas, I'll take Ken Paxton over James Talarico."
"Schitt's Creek" star Dan Levy is super pissed at Shane Gillis over what he sees as Shane's misogynistic tone in his 'SNL' monologue.
Dan is blasting Shane for calling women "w*****s" who wear short shorts at the gym and encouraging more men to come forward to oppose this type of misogyny.
As you know, Shane hosted "Saturday Night Live" this weekend and, during his controversial opening monologue, he said he hadn't been to the gym lately, but that "women just dress like w****s now?"
Sounds like not all famous feuds are forever ... because there may be hope for Sutton Stracke and Dorit Kemsley after a nasty fallig out.
We got Sutton in Los Angeles on Wednesday ... and she told our photog she and her "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" co-star are slowly but surely getting back on good footing.

Kourtney Kardashian is clapping back at Jennifer Lawrence after the actress called her "annoying" ... with Kourtney saying she could "slap the s*** out of her."
During the Season 8 premiere of "The Kardashians," Kourt told Simon Huck she was really upset over what Jen said in her 2025 Vanity Fair lie detector test with Robert Pattinson.
Robert asked J Law if she still kept up with the Kardashians ... she said she stopped watching because "Kourtney is more annoying than ever ... she drives me nuts."
Kourtney says Jennifer talked to Kris Jenner about the comment, and Kourtney told Kris ... "OK, she thinks she's one of my sisters? I'll slap the s*** out of her."
Nick Young wanted to beat D'Angelo Russell's ass ... and that's exactly what he said he would've done if security hadn't blocked him from getting to the young Lakers star!
"I tried to get to the arena, they had security and everything. They stopped me at the door, told me I couldn't come in, 'take a couple of days off,'" Swaggy P told Shannon Sharpe on his "Club Shay Shay" podcast.
"I had the whole gang with me. It was about to go crazy."
Why? Young explained it like this.
"I ain't never been in a situation like that where my teammate just snitched on me. I was like they're gonna call me a punk in the media, and I'm mad for real, I gotta do something. I gotta show him. I know he's young, 19, 18 or whatever, but still you don't do nothing like that."
