The Weeknd's manager Amir "Cash XO" Esmailian is currently dealing with the aftermath of a scary situation -- this after one of his security guards was shot multiple times.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the shooting occurred early Monday morning at 2:25 AM outside a home in the Amestoy Estates area of Encino, a Los Angeles suburb.

10:04 AM PT -- Diddy sources tell TMZ, "Aubrey O'Day got her big break because Diddy and Bad Boy cast her in their show with her group, Danity Kane. Last year, when he reassigned his portion of the publishing to Bad Boy artists, an unprecedented move within the industry and which he did not have to do, not all artists signed an NDA, contrary to what she claims."

Aubrey O'Day claims Diddy was trying to buy her and other ex-Bad Boy artists' silence when he gave back their publishing rights ... which she says weren't worth jack.

Aubrey O'Day afirma que Diddy trató de comprar su silencio y el de otros ex artistas de Bad Boy cuando les devolvió sus derechos de publicación, los que asegura que no valían nada.

Aubrey proporcionó detalles fascinantes, incluyendo el hecho de que sabía lo que estaba pasando en septiembre, cuando Puff le dio a todos sus antiguos artistas los derechos sobre su música. El aparentemente generoso movimiento vino con un montón de condiciones, según Aubrey.

As part of the pact, officials dropped the other felony robbery charge Darez had been facing.

In addition to the probation, Darez was also ordered to perform 20 hours of community labor.

A New York District Attorney put on a jaw-dropping display of arrogance and defiance toward a police officer after she was pulled over for speeding – and the whole confrontation was captured on video.

It all started Monday ... Monroe County's top prosecutor Sandra Doorley was clocked going 55 miles per hour in a 35-mph zone by the officer who then attempted to stop her vehicle with his lights and sirens on.

But Doorley drove back to her home and parked inside her garage as the officer followed her in his patrol car. The cop then confronted her, turning on his body camera.

Two heads are better than one -- and, absolutely necessary to ride in the carpool lane -- but ya gotta make sure those heads are flesh and bone ... and not plastic, like this one was.

One driver learned that lesson the hard way in Santa Fe Springs, CA -- a suburb in L.A. County about 12 miles southeast of Downtown L.A. -- when a California Highway Patrol officer pulled them over ... and discovered a dressed-up mannequin in the passenger seat.

CHP Santa Fe Springs posted a pic of the plastic dummy Thursday to Instagram ... and, we gotta hand it to the driver -- it's pretty dang lifelike, especially from a distance.

Kyle Richards raced to her daughter's side this week after hearing about an emergency at her kid's home -- as the place got broken into by thieves, who busted in in broad daylight.

Sources familiar tell TMZ … Farrah Aldjufrie's L.A.-area home got burglarized Tuesday afternoon, with the crime happening around 1 PM PT. Thankfully, we're told Farrah wasn't home when this happened ... but unfortunately, these crooks made off with quite a lot.

Our sources say the burglars forced open a door on the property and made entry into the home -- and at some point during their stealing spree, we're told they actually cut Farrah's WiFi off completely ... likely in hopes of trying to cut the connection to surveillance cameras.

Kanye West is copping to the fact he punched a guy last week to defend his wife's honor -- and just like his team told us ... he's sticking to the story she was inappropriately touched.

The rapper explained what happened -- from his POV, anyway -- last Tuesday night at the Chateau Marmont ... where he's alleged to have socked one of the Houston Brothers over some kind of bump-in in the lobby.

Welp, according to Ye ... it wasn't an innocent thing at all, even though our sources have insisted it was. Instead, Kanye says Bianca told him one of the bros straight up grabbed her.

The Los Angeles Police Department announced the news late Sunday afternoon ... posting to X a person broke into the Getty House, the official residence of the mayor, at around 6:40 AM Sunday.

Body cam footage from a Seattle police officer captured the moment they gunned down a suspect ... who pulled a gun on the cops.

Officers jump into action ... with one grabbing the weapon before firing off several shots, killing the suspect. His compatriots also fire at the man, who's left dead in the hallway.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori seemed to be in good spirits this week ... driving around L.A. in separate cars -- this just hours after a man filed a battery report against Ye.

Photogs snapped the couple caught in rush hour traffic Wednesday -- and they were rolling in completely different vehicles. BC was piloting her Porsche and Ye was riding shotgun in a Cybertruck ... both seemingly happy and healthy after what sounds like a tough night.

Hard to tell what Bianca's wearing here -- unclear if it's her usual level of sheer or not -- but, she's got her eyes firmly fixed on the road while waiting at traffic lights in her sweet ride.

Kanye West y Bianca Censori parecían estar de buen humor esta semana, conduciendo por Los Ángeles en sus respectivos carros, solo horas después de que un hombre presentara una denuncia por agresión en contra de Ye.

Los fotógrafos captaron a la pareja atrapada en el tráfico el miércoles y andaban en vehículos completamente diferentes. Bianca pilotaba su Porsche y Ye iba de copiloto en un Cybertruck, ambos aparentemente tranquilos después de lo que parece fue una noche dura.

Es difícil saber lo que Bianca está usando aquí. No está claro si es su habitual estilo de transparencias, pero tiene los ojos fijos en la carretera mientras espera en los semáforos.
