Published | Updated

Donald Trump says his fans can deliver a nasty tweet like nobody else ... especially when directed at Megyn Kelly.

The Donald sat down with the Fox anchor and made it clear ... his supporters come out guns a blazing when he's embroiled in a feud. Megyn called Donald out on retweeting some of the more aggressive posts aimed at her, to which Donald replied he knew she's been called MUCH worse.

Master P Sonya Makes HIM Say Uhh ... Has to Fork Over $825k

Published | Updated

Master P will not be collecting his reality show payday ... instead the entire lump sum of nearly a million bucks will go directly to his longtime estranged wife.

The judge in their ongoing war over child and spousal support ordered Master P to hand over $825,000 -- his salary for Season 2 of "Master P's Family Empire" -- to Sonya Miller. According to docs, that amount will cover back child and spousal support payments. The judge said the amount will also be used to secure future support.

As we've reported ... Sonya's been griping for years that P refused to give her a cent in support -- even though she was with him when he built his No Limit fortune, now estimated at $200 million.

The judge's order also requires him to pay $15k to Sonya's lawyer.

We've reached to Master P ... so far no word back.

Jillian Michaels My Neighbor's Dogs Are A Real Bitch

Published | Updated

Jillian Michaels has a real issue with her neighbor's pooches ... and it's gotten so bad she's called in the big guns to fix it.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Jillian's been in a fight with her Malibu next-door neighbor for months. We're told Jillian recently filed a complaint with animal control, saying the neighbor's dogs are a total menace ... charging her fence, bothering her dogs and scaring her kids and horses too.

Animal control made a visit to Jillian's place last month but didn't see any cause for concern. They also checked the fence line for any breaks, but saw no problem.

At this point ... our sources say the feud's little more than "she said, he said" so animal control will continue to monitor the situation, but no disciplinary action's been taken yet.

Kesha Dr. Luke Torpedoes Billboard Gig

Published | Updated

4:30 PM PT -- Kesha now denies she was going to take a shot at Dr. Luke at the BMAs ... insisting she was merely going to perform a tribute to Bob Dylan by singing a cover of his, "It Ain't Me, Babe."

She says she was never going to "allude to my legal situation in any way. I simply wanted to sing a song I love to honor an artist I have always looked up to."

Production sources on the award show tell us the Dylan classic includes several lines that could easily refer to Kesha's situation with Luke ... and that was not a coincidence.

Dr. Luke is putting the kibosh on Kesha performing at the Billboard Music Awards ... where she was planning to make a "statement" about her war with Luke and Sony.

A rep for Dick Clark Productions -- which is producing the award show on Sunday -- says Dr. Luke's label, Kemosabe Records, has been unable to reach an agreement with Kesha for her to take the stage.

TMZ broke the story ... production sources told us the singer was going to reference her epic legal battle during her live BMAs performance. Problem for her is Kemosabe holds all the power, since it still controls her music rights.

We're told Dr. Luke had signed off, but pulled the plug once he got wind of what Kesha was planning.

Of course, she could still get onstage, and just not sing her own songs -- but we're told producers are still holding out hope for an 11th hour deal.

Matt Barnes On Fighting Fisher & Kaepernick 'I'll F*** 'Em Both Up'

Published | Updated

He's got no love for either man ... so we asked Matt Barnes who he'd rather fight, Derek Fisher or Colin Kaepernick?

His answer -- "I'll f*** both of 'em up."

Boom!

As we previously reported, Barnes has had animosity toward the 49ers QB for years -- stemming from a situation where Matt felt "disrespected" by Colin. Clearly, there's still strong feelings.

BTW, we also asked Matt if OKC Thunder star Steven Adams should get a pass for calling the Warriors "quick little monkeys" Monday in his post-game interview.

Matt's all about forgiveness on this one -- explaining why he believes the New Zealander didn't mean any harm.

Prince Dueling TV Specials Siblings at War

Published | Updated

Prince's siblings are now in a battle royale over how to market their late brother ... and make money in the process.

We've learned more than a dozen lawyers representing Prince's 6 siblings have been at each other's throats, competing for ways to get money for their clients ... and quickly.

Our sources say 3 and possibly 4 of the siblings and their lawyers have put together a TV package, with major music producers and famous artists who will perform Prince songs for a 2 hour TV special set to air in August.

The plan is to make the 6 siblings co-producers, which will give them enough money to tide them over as the bank running the estate figures out how to dole out the cash.

Here's the conflict. We're told Tyka and at least one other sibling is not on board ... she wants to produce her own special and control it.

The other siblings are enraged Tyka gets to live rent free in a house Prince owned ... a house on which the bank is still paying the mortgage and home-related expenses. The siblings feel they too should get comparable support, but they're getting nothing ... thus their idea for the TV special.

One source connected with the negotiations tells us, the lawyers met last week and "it's gotten really nasty. No one can agree on anything."

Sinead O'Connor I'm Suing My Whole Family ... If I Don't Kill Myself First

Published | Updated

Sinead O'Connor's been forced out of her native Ireland by her father, ex-husband and ungrateful son ... if you buy what she's selling in a rambling angry letter about her suicide attempts.

Sinead blames her ex, John Reynolds, and son Jake for forcing her to "run to another continent just to stay alive." As we've reported, she's now living outside Chicago, and disappeared for 24 hours ... leading friends and family to think she was going to kill herself.

She acknowledges having a "suicidal compulsion" and says to the men in her family ... "Every one of you had better pray I die. Because I'm suing the f****** lot of you for what you've done to me if I manage to live through it."

In her Facebook post the singer also rants about abortions, her mother's death, her "psychological destruction" and a mountain of medical bills.

Sinead vows that if God doesn't kill her ... "We are all going to court and we are gonna have this out in full public for once and for all."

HIS MEMORY WILL LIVE ON

The rift between Prince's family and Prince's church did not affect his memorial service ... according to Sinbad, who was in attendance.

The comedian was coming back to L.A. after attending the Jehovah's Witness memorial in Minnesota -- and explained how he got the coveted invite.

As TMZ reported -- Prince's family refused to take part or send his remains to the service.

Sinbad scoffed at any attempts to "one-up" other memorials, but added that there's about to be a lot of feuding over all things Prince ... even though it's the last thing he would've wanted.

Paige VanZant Ronda Beef Is Temporary ... 'We'll Bury The Hatchet'

Published | Updated

There's one person who thinks Ronda Rousey won't hate Paige VanZant's guts forever ... Paige VanZant ... who says she's more than confident she and Rousey will be gal pals again.

You know the story ... Ronda went nuclear on Paige at a VIP event earlier this year -- cussing her out in public ... all because PVZ congratulated Holly Holm after she punched Ronda's face in.

You'd think Paige would still be pissed, right??

Wrong.

Check out the clip -- Paige thinks they'll be all Thelma & Louise again before you know it (they were friendly before the incident).

Hope ...

Beyonce Crane Operator's Mom Defends Him After Beyhive Death Threats

Published | Updated

Move over Becky, the Beyhive's going after the crane operator at Beyonce's San Diego concert who joked about sabotaging her stage ... and it's already forced him to apologize.

Austin Zamora was setting up lights for Bey's Thursday night show and posted an IG video of the action. When someone commented "Badass... But make it so it collapses on her," -- Zamora stupidly replied, "I wish it would."

Austin works for his family's crane company, and his mom, Kelly, tells us her biz has been inundated with nasty phone calls and even death threats. She says the Beyhive posted their info on social media, but she's pissed because her company had nothing to do with Bey's concert.

Kelly says Austin was an independent subcontractor -- but she is defending her son, pointing out he just said ... "five words he didn't even mean." Austin's since posted an apology to Beyonce, her family and maybe most importantly ... her fans.

Down, Beyhive. Down.

Michael Strahan & Kelly Ripa And the Best Acting Oscar Goes to ...

Published | Updated

They are good ... Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan were all over each other, holding hands, hugging, and even being mutually chivalrous for Michael's last stand.

You just gotta watch ... 2 people who now have unbridled contempt for each other ... you would never, ever know.

Good show.

BLAME IT ON THE HORMONES ...

Kendra Wilkinson's not waving any white flags in her war with Holly Madison ... but she is blaming hormones for her XXX tweets at her ex-Playboy pal.

We got Kendra outside FOX News Thursday and she explained why she's on the attack, and not planning to back down.

Earlier, she went after Holly on Twitter for dissing Hugh Hefner in a People article. The tweets were extremely graphic, and Kendra's since deleted them.

But the damage is done for Holly, who tells us she doesn't want to be part of a fight where "one woman lives to demoralize and degrade another woman."

She added a jab of her own -- "For those with unresolved issues, therapy works."

Michael Strahan Flashbacks on Final Friday Kelly Ramps Up Bitterness

Published | Updated

Michael Strahan doesn't want fanfare Friday as he exits 'Live' for 'GMA' ... we've learned the show will be a look back at the last 4 years, minus some hard feelings by his co-host over the last 2 weeks.

Sources on the show tell us ... Friday's 'Live' will be laced with clips from shows past, highlighting Michael's ascendancy ... ironically the very thing that caused Kelly Ripa to intensely dislike him.

We're told there will be 2 guests ... Carmelo Anthony and Matt Bomer.

Michael will likely end the show thanking the staff and his fans for their support.

His exit isn't coming a day too soon. We're told Kelly barely says a word to him off camera. He has a habit of knocking on her door when it's time to go out onstage, and she now walks out without even acknowledging him. As we reported, her makeup door used to be open and he'd say hi. It's now shut.

And our sources say there's a lot of acrimony on the staff, because when Kelly came back after her boycott she talked about how they were all family, and how important it was to keep the lines of communications open. We're told the day she came back she hardly said a word to anyone on the staff or to Michael ... she only spoke to her husband and her agent.

There's also lots of support for Michael, because many on the staff say he did nothing wrong. All he did was agree to be a good soldier and go to another show on the same network ... per bosses orders.

DON'T BE TOO SENSITIVE

You don't CUSS SOMEONE OUT for congratulating the person that beat you ... so says UFC legend Randy Couture, who says Ronda Rousey was straight up wrong for going ballistic on Paige VanZant.

As we previously reported, Ronda sought out Paige at a VIP event last month -- and ripped her a new one for having the audacity to give Holly Holm props for beating Ronda at UFC 193.

"You shouldn't take that sort of thing personally," Randy told us.

"If you lose, then you congratulate the guy who just beat you, so why would it be an issue?"

So far, Ronda has yet to speak publicly about the incident ... but so far, she hasn't exactly denied it.

HE'LL COACH ME UP

File this under: TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS.

A new O'Neal is teaming up with Kobe Bryant to make basketball history ... Shaq's son Shareef ... who says Kobe offered to give him 1-on-1 training this summer ... and he accepted.

Yes, that Kobe Bryant ... the same one Shareef's father used to hate with a white hot passion.

Shareef dropped the news on us while leaving the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills ... saying he ran into Kobe at the All-Star Game in Toronto ... and the Mamba offered to be his hoops Obi-Wan.

"He was telling me I need to train with him ... I'm going to probably start training with him this summer."

The Shaq vs. Kobe beef -- one of the nastiest in sports history -- has cooled in recent years, with the two men gushing about each other in public. But still, didn't see this one coming!

Even though it's all good now ... when we asked Shareef if he'd try to bust Kobe's ass when they eventually play each other, shades of the old O'Neal/Bryant rivalry came back out.

"If we play 1-on-1 ... Imma try to win."

Chip off the old block.

Magic Johnson Dwight Howard's Wrong I Never Dashed His NBA Dreams

Published | Updated

Magic Johnson says Dwight Howard is lying -- telling TMZ Sports he NEVER told DH that he had no chance of making it to the NBA back when he was in 10th grade.

Howard made the claims Tuesday night on "Inside the NBA" -- telling Charles Barkley that naysayers like Magic Johnson have motivated to be a great player for years.

"I’ll never forget the day I came in here and you [Charles Barkley] told me I wasn’t going to be good in the NBA. And I’ll never forget the day that Magic Johnson said I wasn’t going to make it to the NBA when I was in the 10th grade. And that stuff drives me every day to want to be one of the greatest players to play the game."

Since dream-crushing doesn't exactly sound like the Magic we all know, we called him up for comment -- and were given the following statement:

"I never said that to him." -- Magic Johnson

So, who ya gonna believe? Seems pretty obvious to us ...
