Kesha tried to pull off a gas station photo shoot -- while seemingly jabbing at Katy Perry -- but the manager wasn't having it, and told her and the photog to get the hell out!!!

The "TiK ToK" singer pulled into a Sinclair gas station Thursday afternoon in L.A., and started posing for photos in a red cowboy hat, matching red mini-skirt, thigh-high boots and a small black purse.

Kesha was also wearing a tiny white tank top with "LOL" written on it ... which certainly plays like a callback to her recent tweet that fans believe is her reaction to Katy Perry collabing with Kesha's old nemesis Dr. Luke.

RIHANNA 'I'm Retired' ... Shirt Sends Message?!?

Published | Updated

update

6/7/24 -- We found the shirt that Rihanna was wearing, and here's what it says in full ... "I'm Retired, This Is As Dressed Up As I Get." The question ... is the "retirement" mystery over???

Rihanna is either sending a message or trolling with her fashion choice in the Big Apple ... and it's all about what's on her shirt.

RiRi hopped out of an SUV in New York City Thursday and walked past photogs in a graphic tee -- which has the words "I'm Retired" emblazoned across the front ... pretty interesting given that she hasn't released an album since 2016 and is now a mother of two.

Lady Gaga Denies Pregnancy Rumors ... After Wedding Pics Go Viral

Lady Gaga does not have a bun in the oven -- even though a lot of people thought she did based on some pics of her that went around this week ... over which she's clearing the air.

Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.

Obviously, something like that is a little sensitive -- but some felt she definitely looked pregnant ... but now, Gaga herself is coming out to deny that, saying it just ain't true.

Pete Davidson & Chase Sui Wonders Hot & Heavy for Beach Day ... She Shows Off the Bod!!!

Published | Updated

Pete Davidson and Chase Sui Wonders are still going strong -- now taking their Winter romance into the early part of Spring ... and showing off some skin for the season.

The couple is enjoying a vacay in Kauai right now -- where they're staying at a summer house, it seems, and were joined by friends Saturday. Eventually, the crew made their way to the beach ... but not before a little suck-face between PD and CSW on the front deck.

Before long, Chase hit the water with the group she was tagging along with ... but it doesn't look like Pete joined her in the water. He was all sweatered up ... she was in a 2-piece.

So, here's the thing ... we're being told this wasn't just a random getaway between Pete, Chase and some pals -- our sources suggest this was actually a meet-the-family trip. We're being told the folks with them might actually be siblings of hers ... but that's not confirmed.

However ... if this is, in fact, a familial thing -- as we've been told -- then it would signal Pete and Chase are getting serious. We know PD tends to cozy up to his SO's broods ... but that usually only happens when he's all in like he recently was with Kim Kardashian.

Speaking of her ... this trip actually has echoes of one he took with KK in a tropical setting while they were together -- only this time, if all holds true, it might be a family affair for his and Chase's first vacation ... and perhaps moving even faster than the last go-around.

Love is in the air ... and in the deep blue, too.

TMZ broke the story ... Matthew and Chilli officially started dating right before Thanksgiving, and they spent the holidays together in Atlanta, where ML met her family. Chilli has also met Matthew's fam and they had nothing but good things to say about her.

Shawn Mendes In the Flower of His Youth ... Check Out the Gun Show!!!

Published

Shawn Mendes is stopping to smell the roses lately -- which seems to be paying dividends, 'cause the dude's looking swole and refreshed as he continues to focus on his mental health.

The singer was out Sunday at a farmers market in L.A., where he stopped off for a little greenery. Looks like he sampled the options -- taking a big whiff of multi-colored flowers, but ultimately choosing what appears to be eucalyptus wrapped up and ready to go.

Unclear who exactly these might be for ... but at any rate, Shawn was happy to flex that he's a plant dad. Emphasis on flex -- indeed, the guy was showing off the fact he's yoked.

SM's been out and about a lot over the past few weeks ... and like we said, it looks like this break from touring that he's on is working out for him. Shawn appears pretty happy these days, focusing on himself and, of course, promo'ing his new movie ... "Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile."

Published | Updated

Angelina Jolie was apparently responsible for breaking the news about her relationship with Brad Pitt, according to the founder of Rolling Stone magazine ... who attributes her for getting the bombshell shots back in 2005.

Jann Wenner's upcoming memoir, 'Like a Rolling Stone,' is full of stories about the celebs he's encountered over the years, according to Page Six ... but this one might take the cake, putting to bed a 17-year mystery on who first blabbed about Brangelina.

Jann owned Us Weekly when rumors were flying about BP and AJ being an item ... when their photographer got a tip about the two staying at a resort on the coast of Africa.

He puts it plainly -- "the tipster was Angelina." Of course, this was all going down while Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston.

Not only did Jann's photog know where to find them, but Angelina gave specific details about their daily walks, and even where they could secretly snag a pic of them.

Jann says they finally got the proof after Angelina's tip ... adding "we had the worldwide scoop, the debut of Brangelina."

Kim Kardashian Shares Story of Pregnancy Body Shaming ... After Watching Britney Doc

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian says she totally understands what it's like to be Britney Spears after watching the new documentary about the singer's life ... because she went through the same intense media scrutiny when she was pregnant.

Kim just opened up on her own experience with media shaming, saying she totally empathizes with Britney after watching the "Framing Britney Spears" documentary.

For Kim, she says the hardest part was when she was pregnant with North, she recalls the media giving her a hard time over her weight gain ... and says the constant magazine covers, like the one comparing her to a whale, made her cry.

She shared a bunch of the covers, with headlines like ... "Dumped at 200 Lbs," "I'll Never Be Sexy Again," "I Can't Stop Eating," "Paid To Get Fat," "Don't Call Me Fat," "I'll Eat As Much As I Want," "Alone & Binge Eating," "Yes, I'm Fat," "Kim's Body Struggle," "You Call This Fat" and "My Butt Won't Stop Growing."

Kim says she was shamed on a weekly basis just like Britney and it really broke her spirit ... and she says no one deserves to be treated with cruelty or judgment, no matter how famous they are or how public their life is.

While KK says she eventually turned the media scrutiny into motivation, she says it still took a toll on her mental health.

Bottom line for Kim ... the media needs to show understanding and compassion, whether it's her, Britney or anyone else.

Alex Trebek I'll Take Hard Hats for $200 ... Precautions After Home Depot

Published | Updated

Alex Trebek is not letting the coronavirus pandemic or his cancer battle slow down his DIY ways, but he is taking extra precautions.

The beloved "Jeopardy!" host and his wife, Jean, hit up a Home Depot in Van Nuys Tuesday afternoon ... and then busted out some cool, customized hard hats after their DIY shopping trip, and, of course, surgical masks. They made their way after to the construction site for a new homeless shelter in the San Fernando Valley -- where they took a tour, courtesy of the Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission.

If you didn't know ... Alex is a big fixer-upper guy, and seemed almost ready to get his hands dirty to help out the crew at the construction site! Appears he's still going strong doing all the handiwork himself ... coronavirus and cancer be damned. The work ethic on this guy!

Alex's son, Matthew, made it a family affair by tagging along to the hardware store, though he doesn't have an awesome customized helmet like mom and dad. Maybe he's still in his apprenticeship.

Bottom line ... looks like nothing's gonna stop Alex.
