Mama June I Don't Owe Anna a Dime ... TLC Paid Her Direct

Published | Updated

Mama June is crafting a "direct deposit defense" against her daughter Anna's claims MJ made off with thousands of TLC dollars from the family's "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" days.

Mama June tells TMZ it's "ridiculous" to think she owes Chickadee any money ... because she says the network deposited Anna's money directly into her accounts.

MJ says their most recent contract, drawn up in September 2012, specifically stated that one-third of the family's $22,500/episode paycheck was to be divided up equally among the kids and paid to them individually -- meaning Mama June never saw a cent of it.

Mama June claims she gave Anna a $15,400 check last December ... her cut of a lump sum the family was paid when their show was cancelled.

In fact, Mama June says she even helped Anna by paying her cellphone bill and other household expenses.

Mama June Sued By Daughter You Kept All the Bacon

Published | Updated

Mama June's daughter and granddaughter are suing her, claiming she screwed them out of hundreds of thousands of dollars from their series, "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo."

Anna Cardwell and her 2-year-old daughter, Kaitlyn, claim Mama June pocketed money that was earmarked for them. Anna says she's owed around $200k and Kaitlyn is owed $100k.

The mother/daughter plaintiffs say Mama June kept their share of the $22,500 per episode. They also say Mama June didn't fork over royalties for their cookbook and other promotional things.

Anna and Kaitlyn have also dragged TLC into the lawsuit, claiming the network had a duty to protect them ... ensuring they'd get what was owed to them.

TLC has always said it helped set up accounts to ensure everyone got what was owed to them.

Published | Updated

Nicki Minaj’s ex Safaree Samuels rages in a new song that his blood, sweat and tears made her what she is, yet she treated him like dirt.

Safaree's song “Love The Most” will be released at the end of the week, but we got hold of it, and he's airing as much dirty laundry as he can in 5 minutes.

Among his gripes ... alleged infidelity, refusal to have his baby, coldly rejecting him and rubbing in his nose her new relationship with rapper Meek Mill.

And he even throws in a reference to pills for bad measure.

At one point he says Nicki made him look like Bozo the Fool, rapping: "Had to watch you kiss Nas and pretend it's all cool / Inside I was feeling like a motha f**king fool."

Their 12 year relationship ended last year, and Minaj rebounded with Meek Mill.

Nicki's camp had no comment.

Katy Perry '1984' Registered By Swedish Songwriter NOT Katy

Published | Updated

We now know how Katy Perry's name ended up on the official registration of a song the media claims is a hit piece targeting Taylor Swift ... Katy had nothing to do with it, but a producer who once worked with her did.

The song -- "1984" -- was registered with BMI last September. When you go to the BMI site, it lists Katy as the artist and 4 producers/songwriters, including Dallas Austin and a guy named Andreas Carlsson.

The reason everyone's interested in the prospect of such a song ... Taylor got pissed off at Katy last September after 3 of Taylor's backup dancers bailed on Taylor to do backup for Katy. We broke the story ... the 3 dancers had worked with Katy long before and when they signed up with Taylor, they wanted a 30-day out if Katy launched a new tour. Katy had no beef with Taylor, but Taylor was bitter.

So when the story broke that Katy was attached to "1984" (the year she was born) -- a play on Taylor's "1989" album -- everyone thought it was a response to Taylor's song "Bad Blood," which is rumored to be about her feud with Katy.

But here's what we found out. "1984" was actually registered 5 days after we broke the story about the 3 dancers jumping ship. Sources tell us the management company BMG in Sweden registered the song at the behest of Andreas Carlsson. By the way, Carlsson co-wrote "Waking Up in Vegas," which Katy recorded.

Multiple sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ, Katy had no idea Carlsson registered the song.

We're also told BMI is going to yank the song from its registration, probably tomorrow morning.

Chris Brown I Got Mixed Signals About Karrueche Reunion

Published | Updated

Chris Brown got burned by friends who told him Karrueche Tran was dying to get back together with him -- which led to the nightclub blowup that made Chris look like an obsessed ex-BF.

Sources close to the former couple tell TMZ ... Chris got a table at Playhouse, right next to Karrueche because their mutual friends told him to do it. The friend network was pumping Chris up ... telling him KT was ready to work things out.

So, as you can imagine ... Chris was shocked that night when Karrueche stormed out of the club.

Fact is, Karrueche never told anyone she wants to get back with Chris. According to our sources, she and Chris figured out the next day that they'd been had. We're told they're cutting off the so-called "friends" behind the conspiracy.

For his part, we're told Chris is fine with moving on ... and wouldn't have gone to Playhouse if he hadn't been set up. It was the first time Chris had seen Karrueche since they broke up over his baby ... and a total disaster.

Ariana Grande I'm Over Big Sean ... I'm Not His Property!!

Published | Updated

Ariana Grande just came out swinging ... saying she's sick and tired of being referred to as "Big Sean's ex" -- because, "I do not. Belong. To anyone. But myself."

The singer just went off on social media -- saying she HATES the label because, "I am tired of living in a world where women are mostly referred to as a man’s past, present or future PROPERTY/POSSESION."

Grande then blasts society ... saying for the past 8 years she's been made to feel like she needed to have a man by her side or else she would be considered a loser.

"After being on my own now for a few months I am realizing that that's just not the case ... I have never felt more present, grounded and satisfied. I've ever laughed harder or had more fun or enjoyed my life more."

Grande also attacks society's sexual double standard -- saying:

"If a women has a lot of sex (or any sex for that matter)….she’s a “slut”.
If a man has sex….HE’S. A. STUD. a BOSSSSSS. A KING.
If a woman even TALKS about sex openly….she is shamed!
But if a man talks or RAPS freely about all the women (or more commonly used “bitches”/”hoes”…how lovely) he’s had…he is regaled.
If a woman is seen with a friend with a penis, there is an immediate assumption of romance or sex and she is labeled!!
IF a man is seen with a woman… his status is elevated / celebrated. “AWW SHIIIIT HE SMASHED!!!1!!1!”

As we previously reported, Grande and Big Sean split back in April -- and we're told a big part of the breakup was that Sean referenced Grande's vagina in a song ... saying she has a "billion dollar p***y."

There were also rumors that Grande had rebounded with One Direction's Niall Horan -- but she told The Sun, "A girl can be friends with someone with a d**k and not hop on it."

Boom.

POLICE OUTSIDE KARRUECHE'S HOUSE

8:35 AM PT -- A police car pulled up outside Karrueche's house early this morning while Chris was there. Law enforcement sources tell us someone called cops to complain about the noise Chris and co. were making at her door.

We're told officers spoke to Chris and Karrueche, but there was no evidence of a crime ... so no tickets, no arrests.

Chris Brown's attempted reunion with Karrueche Tran last night did not end well -- with the singer BANGING on KT's front door after she kicked him out of her SUV.

We're told the drama started INSIDE Playhouse nightclub ... when Chris got the V.I.P. table next to the one Karrueche was at.

We're told KT was PISSED and left the club ... and Brown followed ... eventually weaseling his way into her SUV.

Our sources connected to Karrueche say KT did NOT want him inside -- and dropped him off with his friends a short time later.

Which is why she was even more upset when he showed up on her doorstep around 3:30 AM -- banging and yelling, clearly trying to get KT to open up.

Tran ultimately left her home -- and went to the famous Norm's Diner. Brown showed up a short time later.

Once inside, we're told they began to argue and it escalated into a full-blown shouting match. Eventually, Karrueche left the restaurant and returned home -- without Chris.

Bottom line -- don't expect a reconciliation any time soon.

Brandi Glanville to Joanna Krupa This Fish Remind You of Anything? (Yes, I Mean Your Vagina)

Published | Updated

Brandi Glanville humiliated her nemesis Joanna Krupa during a fancy L.A. dinner ... by putting a new twist on their stinky vagina war.

Sources at celeb hot spot Craig's tell us the feuding housewives were dining at separate tables last Friday ... when Brandi uncorked a brilliant, yet smelly prank.

We're told Brandi sent a plate of steaming hot salmon over to Joanna, and the stunt was a not-so-subtle response to Krupa's defamation lawsuit over Brandi's original lady parts insult.

Joanna was with her husband, Romain Zago, and we're told they were both upset by the rank (yet most likely tasty) joke ... but left with no issues.

Brandi dropped a mere $40 for the sesame crusted salmon. The lawsuit could cost her a helluva lot more if she loses.

Bobby Flay The Sign of a Bitter Divorce

Published | Updated

Bobby Flay got a big honor Tuesday with his very own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, but it was not exactly a banner day for the famous chef.

As Bobby raised his fist in victory, someone else gave him the fist ... in the form of a flying indictment, calling him a "Cheater."

The banner -- tethered to an airplane high above Hollywood -- clearly refers to allegations in his super bitter divorce with estranged wife Stephanie March. The actress has alleged in legal docs that Bobby cheated on her.

We don't know who commissioned the banner, but it flew around the area for about an hour.

Mayweather's Marriage Proposal I'll Love You Forever ... But Your Attitude Sucks!

Published | Updated

It's what every little girl dreams of ... a marriage proposal over text message ... complete with crazy Hollywood bribes and a demand that you change your crappy attitude, stat.

And that's exactly what Floyd Mayweather fired off to Shantel Jackson back in April '14 ... according to new court docs obtained by TMZ Sports.

Jackson put the proposal on display in new legal papers filed in her nuclear war with her ex-fiancee ... which shows how Floyd tried to convince Shantel into getting engaged for a 2nd time.

"This is what I offer to you. Let's get married move in together you can go back in forth to L.A and stay at the condo."

"I promise I will get you in 3 A list movies this year and I'm willing to go to counseling to make us work and you can get the stuff you want and I'm willing to change but I need you to have a better attitude."

How romantic, right?!

Shantel says she shot down the offer (shocker) ... and included several text messages dating back to April 2013 to show why Mayweather wasn't exactly her knight in shining armor.

Among the highlights ...

-- "I had your phone traced. I hired a detective. Your not slick."
-- "I got nasty videos too that I can put on Instagram and twitter"
-- "I took you from rags to riches now you back to rags bitch. that's why your out selling shit going on petty ass auditions fronting to people like your doing big sh*t."

Shantel also says Floyd got upset over a photo of her with rapper Nelly from April '14 and demanded she remove it from her social media page.

When she refused, Shantel says Floyd sent her a pic of them together in happier days with the caption, "Just tell me this didn't mean anything."

In the legal docs she also claims, "[Floyd] threatened that if I didn't take down the photo of me and Nelly, he would post 'naked photos' of me on social media."

BTW, Shantel and Nelly began dating ... and are still together.

Karrueche Screw Chris Brown I Can Post Pics of Whoever I Want

Published | Updated

Karrueche Tran got hot as fish grease Saturday night when we asked if she was allowed to still mug with men.

Karrueche was leaving 1OAK in West Hollywood when she bristled at the notion that Chris Brown scared her away from posting pics of herself with other guys. You'll recall, Brown threatened Tyson Beckford a week ago after she posted a pic of the 2 of them in Vegas. Chris later apologized.

Get this ... last night Chris and Tyson showed up at the same place -- the iHeartRadio Summer Pool Party in Vegas. Unclear if they interacted, but no one left bloodied.

Speaking of blood, we joked with Karrueche about the fake blood on her lip ... it's all for a movie.

Lil Wayne Arrest in Tour Bus Shooting ... Suspect Tied to Young Thug

Published | Updated

Lil Wayne's tour bus was allegedly shot up by a guy who has very close ties to Wayne's rival, Young Thug ... TMZ has learned.

Atlanta PD got an arrest warrant for the suspect, Jimmy Carlton Winfrey, on May 21 ... and he's been charged with aggravated assault, terroristic threats, possession of a firearm by a felon, and criminal gang activity.

We're told by multiple sources in Atlanta that Winfrey has been Young Thug's road manager -- which is incredibly relevant since Thug's been in a very public feud with Wayne for months.

Thug released a mixtape called "Tha Carter 6" -- mocking Wayne's long delayed album -- but changed it to "Barter 6" when he was threatened with a lawsuit.

TMZ broke the story ... Wayne's bus got blasted back in April as he was leaving a club gig in Atlanta. Police say Winfrey was trying to gain status in the Bloods by "committing a high profile shooting of a rival rap artist."

Winfrey's mug shot is from a previous arrest for drug possession in Florida.

CAN YOU SAY DADA?

Chris Brown's daughter Royalty got a phone call from her dad on her first birthday ... but a source close to his baby mama says that's it.

Sources close to Royalty's mom, Nia Guzman, tell TMZ ... Brown didn't show up for the 1-year-old's birthday, didn't send a gift and didn't contribute to the cost of the Chuck E. Cheese's shindig. Nia says her boyfriend, King Ba, paid for the whole thing.

Ba -- who's listed on the birth certificate as Royalty's birth father -- seemed to take pleasure in Chris' absence and captioned one pic of Royalty by writing, "Wouldn't Miss This Day For Anything In This World."

Chris' people say he was in Miami shooting a music video with Pit Bull, and tried Facetiming with his daughter but Nia's phone was acting wonky.
