Timbaland Puts a Ring on It

Sorry single ladies, Timothy Zachery Mosley aka Timbaland is showing off his wedding bling.

Timbaland Zachery

Everyone's favorite record producer married his publicist Monique Idlett last year and flashed his rock in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

No doubt Monique has an even bigger ring, if he wants to keep up the good press.

Timbaland -- Blackground Blackballed Me

This is a story about a recording artist who became a big shot record producer ... so big, his own people allegedly wanted to take him down.

Timbaland is going after his record label, Blackground Records, claiming they didn't utter a peep when he first decided to make his move from "performer" to "producer." But then things got ugly...

In his lawsuit, filed today in Federal District court, Timbaland claims he just got too damn successful as a producer -- and the record label couldn't contain its jealously and hostility for him.

Timbaland alleges Blackground went on a McCarthy-esque search-and-destroy campaign, contacting various record labels and giving them a million reasons why they shouldn't hire Timbaland to produce songs.

To add insult to injury, Timbaland claims Blackground also stiffed him out of serious cash. Now, he wants out of the contract and unspecified damages.

Florist to Timbaland: Get Scrooged

A Florida florist wants a piece of Timbaland's mansion after the rap mogul allegedly stiffed the store out of more than $10,000 in Xmas decorations.

The White Tulip Florist in Miami Beach filed legal papers required to slap a lien on Timba's Miami mansion, claiming he bought $25,850 worth of trees, flowers and lights but still owes $11,450.

We're told Timbaland pitched a fit when he got the bill -- demanding to see the wholesale cost of the items he bought. The florist showed Timba the price list, but that wasn't good enough.

A call to Timbaland's rep was not immediately returned.

Driver for Timba Lands in Handcuffs

Next time Timbaland hires a driver, he might want to check if the guy actually has a license first.

TMZ has obtained video of the mega-producer surrounded by cops in Times Square early Wednesday morning while his chauffeur was taken in for driving without a license. Timba looked pissed, and righly so -- he trusted the guy with his sick Maybach (which usually start around $339,000)!!!!!!

Timbaland's rep had no comment.

Timbaland's Karaoke Wedding

TMZ spies were in Aruba last weekend, when rapper/mega-producer Timbaland got hitched on a private island. But don't think everything was as fancy as it looks!
Timbaland: Click to launch!
Spies at the wedding site tell us Timbaland's wedding -- which the hotel called code name "Heaven on Earth" -- featured open mic karaoke and $50k worth of flowers -- which compared to Mariah-size weddings is peanuts!

Peeps like Oprah, Madonna, Missy Elliott, Beyonce, Jay-Z and Prince were invited -- but we don't know if they actually showed.

George Hamilton: The New Lyrical Gangsta?

He of the über-tan, George Hamilton, broke it down Vanilla Ice-style outside Mr. Chow last night and yes, it's as good as you'd hope.

Also in L.A.: Alexis Arquette smacked a bitch up, her sis Rosanna called us "mean," the Beckhams caused chaos at LAX and Noah Wyle said he'd be back on "ER" -- but don't hold your breath for Clooney.

In NY: The Jonas Brothers met some tweenage fans and Gina Gershon hooked up with "Denny" from "Grey's Anatomy."

Timbaland's Best Work Yet -- Lil' Timba

In Timba's land, the branch doesn't fall far from the tree, clearly.


TMZ caught up with super-producer Timbaland and his son Frankie outside of their NYC hotel, after the pair raised the roof at the Z100 Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden. Timba brought lil' Timba on for part of the show, and high-fived him -- to the delight of the crowd.

It looks like Frankie let dad wear one of his coats.

Dre, Timbaland and Levine Show Off Their Guns

In between all the lip synching, bitch slappin' and sore-losing at last night's VMAs, some musicians found time to show off their newly ripped, worked-out bods! Gimme more!
Dr. Dre, Timbaland and Adam Levine
Looking like "Fan 4's" The Thing, Dr. Dre appeared in all his massive rock-hard glory. Sippin' on gin and juice? No longer keeping his muscled bod on the down low, Timbaland brought sexyback by accentuating his jewels with a slimming little black tank! While Maroon 5's formerly scrawny lead singer/gigolo rocked his buff shoulders and biceps in a regulation hipster vest. It's getting harder to breathe!

Looking fierce, guys!

Timberlake and Timbaland Tear Up Club

Clubgoers got a special Sin City showcase last night when music masterminds Justin Timberlake and Timbaland took over the DJ booth!


The two Tims hit up JET Nightclub at the Mirage hotel, and helped get the packed house poppin' by grabbing the mics and getting loud for the crowd. Prolific producer Timbaland is in Vegas preparing for his role as musical maestro for the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards -- and must have felt the need to get out, and get down!

Two Navigators were waiting for Timberlake when he left the club -- at nearly 5 o'clock in the morning!

Timbaland: Bummin' It

Fresh from a fistfight and jail stint in Germany, rapper/record producer Timbaland was spotted shopping in Paris on Tuesday. Tres chic!

Timba (aka Timothy Mosely), left fashion-forward Parisians aghast as he lumbered along in this plain white tee and sweats and Uggish shoes. Ugh!

The big teddy bear visited several luxury designer stores during his stay in the fashion capital, apparently without success. As Timbaland admits in his new single The Way I Are, "I ain't got no Visa, I ain't got no Red American Express." Ain't got no fashion sense neither!

Fergie to Nelly Furtado: "Say it to My Face"

Fergie and NellyThe Fergie/Furtado feud flames on!

On "Impacto," Fergie's latest collaboration with Daddy Yankee, the self-proclaimed Dutchess fillets the "Promiscuous" singer, saying, "I ain't promiscuous, the realest chick up in this," and threatens with an old fashioned "I'ma pull your wig back!"

This isn't Fergie's first shot at Nelly. In "Fergalicious," she also says that she's not promiscuous. Obviously, she doesn't feel that Nell's gettin' the message. SHE AIN'T PROMISCUOUS!!

Ooh! Take that, Nelly!

Timbaland's Genius Mystifies Him

Star Catcher hit both coasts last night, starting in Los Angeles, where we spotted the hottest music producer around: Timbaland. We asked Tim why he's so good, and the answer eluded him. "I don't know," he said, "I wish I did though."

Also on the left coast, "Idol" top dawg Randy Jackson, former *NSYNCer J.C. Chasez, hip-hop legend Heavy D, the gorgeous Meagan Good, and Black Eyed Peas main man Will.I.Am.

Earlier in the day, we spotted Lauren Conrad from "The Hills," at lunch with Brody Jenner at Cuvee, "Idol" champ Taylor Hicks leaving the Ivy, and "Thank You For Smoking" star Aaron Eckhart strolling down Robertson Blvd. with his girlfriend.

Meanwhile, our man in NYC caught up with Diddy, Cassie, and Nicole Richie with Joel Madden at a fashion week event.

It's all in our celeb-crammed, bi-coastal Star Catcher!

"SexyBack" Makes Timbaland Question Manhood

Hip-hop super-producer Timbaland thinks that the massive Justin Timberlake hit "SexyBack" -- which he produced -- might make an otherwise straight man question his sexuality. As he tells Blender magazine, "Some people listen to a song like 'SexyBack' and think, am I queer?Am I funny? If you are that way, you're just that way. But if you're a masculine man, embrace it. Have a glass of wine, put the record on, invite your girl over to get sexy." (Did he say a glass of wine?)

Timbaland, who also produced another summer mega hit, Nelly Furtado's "Promiscuous," reflects on the tough financial times that the hip-hop industry is suffering. "There was a time ... like '97, '98, back when the industry was hot that I was getting $300,000 a track. And I was doing 10 tracks every two weeks! [Now] I stay in the digits, but it's nowhere near where it was."

But the producer has a distinctly un-masculine view of things when it comes to cheesy, cloying ballads. "I think 'Time After Time' is probably the best ballad ever besides maybe that 'Titanic' song," he declares. The November issue of Blender hits stands next Tuesday.

Furtado Cuts "Loose"

She's come a long way from flying "Like a Bird" as Nelly tries on a much sexier demeanor in her new video for "Promiscuous." The song, from her new album "Loose," is already one of the hottest songs of the summer, thanks largely in part to her collaboration with hip-hop producer Timbaland.
