Celebrity Feuds

Another day, another enemy for LaVar Ball ... this time it's NFL superstar J.J. Watt who roasted Ball over the ZO2s ... saying they suck, are overpriced ... and most importantly, Watt's shoes are better.

Watt took to Twitter to announce the release of his $99 Reebok training shoe and took the time to call out Ball when he did it ... posting a not-so-subtle shot at the Big Baller Brand boss.

"400 dollars less than some shoes on the market and 100% more effective" ... "And I actually wear them."

LaVar and Lonzo's sneakers retail for $495.

Lonzo's been killin' it in the NBA Summer League ... but only since he stopped wearing the ZO2s ... and switched to Kobe's Nikes and Harden's Adidas kicks.

Shots fired.

50 Cent is ripping into Conor McGregor for calling him a bitch in Thursday's press conference ... mocking the UFC superstar for getting choked out by Nate Diaz.

ICYMI -- 50 called out Conor for using his famous "Floyd can't read" insult (which Fitty used when he was beefin' with Floyd a few years back) in Toronto ... saying T.B.E.'s "gonna kill him for saying that."

Conor responded to the NY rapper's comments during the Brooklyn stop of the world tour Thursday ... simply saying "50 Cent's a bitch!"

Fitty didn't take it lightly, calling out the Notorious ... saying "What the f**k wrong wit this white boy, you fighting Floyd not me fool" ... and posting a pic of Conor getting choked out by Diaz.

Curtis added "champ about to be 50-0, and the Little leprechaun is just the 50th Victim. Floyd said 'I'm a put the hand of God on that boy.'"

Looks like Conor's gonna have to address this during the London stop of the world tour Friday ...

6:15 PM PT -- Sources close to Kim tell us she had no idea who Danielle was, and was only introduced as "a fan" and not the "Cash Me Outside" girl. They say Kim took pics with several fans.

Kim Kardashian -- who hangs with the richest, most powerful people in the country -- peaced out with "Cash Me Outside" girl Danielle Bregoli.

Kim and Danielle Bregoli's worlds collided at The Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel Thursday, where the 2 stars were both enjoying a meal. Danielle was dining 2 tables away from Kim when someone who knew both introduced them.

Sources close to Bregoli tell us Kim was denying photos with other patrons, but made an exception for her. We're told Danielle was apprehensive -- you know, because she talked crazy smack about her whole family in February -- but Kim couldn't have been nicer.

Someone break out the Kermit tea meme -- the puppeteer who was behind Kermit the Frog's voice for 27 years is saying Disney actually fired him ... over the phone.

Steve Whitmire -- who started at age 19 back in 1990 -- wrote a blog post explaining his side of the story after news broke earlier this week that he was being replaced. He said he was told the role would be recast back in October but had hoped the sides could work things out, but to no avail.

Whitmire said, "I have offered multiple remedies to their two stated issues which had never been mentioned to me prior to that phone call. I wish that we could have sat down, looked each other in the eye, and discussed what was on their minds before they took such a drastic action.”

Whitmire's successor will become only the third person to play Kermit since Jim Henson created the frog back in 1955.

Alan Thicke's widow, Tanya Callau, is asking a judge to set Alan's kids straight by telling them to shut up on all their allegations that she's a greedy widow who will try to nullify her prenup to get more cash.

Tanya claims Robin Thicke and his brother, Brennan, were not serious at all when they filed legal docs asking a judge to block her from challenging the prenup she signed with their dad.

Tanya says the Thicke brothers know she has no intention of challenging the prenup, even though she signed it without the benefit of legal representation just 4 days before their wedding.

She says this is all about trashing her in the media and wants the judge to see it for what it is ... a baseless concern.

Tanya insists all she wants is what's hers ... a cut of Alan's ranch, a right to live there and chunk of his other assets.

As we reported ... Robin and Brennan previously filed legal docs claiming Tanya threatened to trash them in the tabloids if she didn't get what she wanted. She called BS ... claiming they just want her out of the picture so they could turn the family ranch into a pot farm.

How does Floyd Mayweather feel about Conor McGregor calling him a "boy" twice? No offense taken.

In fact, Floyd actually tries to turn it into a joke -- "We all know there's only 2 types of boys -- a white boy and a cowboy -- and I'm neither."

TBE landed in NYC on Wednesday night, so we had to ask him about the outrage over Conor's racial comments at the 2 media events.

"Racism still exists but you know, I try to take something negative and turn it into something positive," Mayweather told us.

"A lot of people say that Conor McGregor is racist but I don't worry about that."

When asked specifically if he's upset with Conor over the comments, Floyd said he's not -- explaining, "It is what it is. He's entitled to feel how he wants to feel."

"I just want to stay in my zone and stay focused."

Who throws a flag? Conor McGregor ... that's who.

The UFC star actually weaponized the Irish colors at the Mayweather vs. McGregor Day 2 event in Toronto on Wednesday ... after a bizarre standoff involving Floyd's backpack.

At first, it seemed Floyd was gonna disrespect McGregor's flag -- but then he handed it over to Conor peacefully.

That's when Conor launched it back at the boxer ... and it landed right on the ground. Bad form.

The disses continued to fly -- Conor went after everything from his outfit, to his money, to his women to his alleged inability to read.

Mayweather called him a bitch a lot.

McGregor got the crowd to chant, "F*ck the Mayweathers."

But the best part? DRAKE SHOWED UP!

Next stop ... Brooklyn.

For the second day in a row, Conor McGregor has told Floyd Mayweather to "Dance for me, boy."

Conor was met with outrage when he first hurled the taunt at Floyd in L.A. on Tuesday -- since referring to a black man as "boy" in America is an insult that dates back to slavery. Same with telling a black man to "dance for me."

But despite scorn from black leaders across the country, Conor took the mic at the media event in Toronto on Wednesday and said it AGAIN.

Floyd just sat back and smiled.

Conor continued to rail against Floyd -- saying he's illiterate and stupidly blows his money on boatloads of strippers.

That's when he dragged Rob Kardashian into the mix ... saying Rob only bankrolled ONE, referring to Blac Chyna.

It's only day 2 ...

Tony Ferguson has a loud, finger-waggin' message for Conor McGregor ...

I'LL SEE YOU AFTER FLOYD, SON!!

We got T-Ferg leaving the first Mayweather-McGregor press conference at Staples Center Tuesday ... and the UFC lightweight contender wasted no time telling Conor -- the UFC lightweight champ -- what's up.

That said, Ferguson -- whose next fight isn't booked -- is open to other matchups ... like one with Justin Gaethje -- who dropped one of the most violent/awesome UFC debuts EVER last week.

"If he wants his a** kicked we'll handle that," Tony told TMZ Sports.

Floyd Mayweather Sr. says he doesn't see anything racist about Conor McGregor telling his son to "dance for me, boy" during the news conference ... despite outrage on social media.

"Racist? I don't know what that got to do with race," Floyd Sr. told TMZ Sports moments after the news conference at Staples Center.

"This is a boxing match. I don't know what that got to do with no racists."

Of course, referring to a black man as "boy" in America has an extremely negative history that goes all the way back to slavery. Don't do it.

Conor did ... but Floyd Sr. is clearly giving him a pass.

Two things you don't say to black men in America ...

1) "Dance for Me"

2) "Boy"

Conor McGregor said BOTH of those things to Floyd Mayweather at the big fight news conference in L.A. and people are pissed.

The reaction on social media was swift with FS1's Chris Broussard tweeting, "'Dance for me, boy!' Ohh, ohh. Does he know what he just said?"

Not the first time Conor's gone racial to hype a fight -- he famously called Nate Diaz a "cholo gangster" before UFC 196.

Blac Chyna is a massive hypocrite who is every bit as much of a bully as Rob Kardashian ... so claims the guy she once allegedly dated.

Pilot Jones says Chyna all but ruined his life after their breakup when she posted his phone number and he began receiving a torrent of death threats. He says he had to move out of L.A. it got so bad.

He also says Chyna outed him as bisexual and the situation became so intense he tried to commit suicide.

Blac Chyna's firing a warning shot at her former side piece -- telling him if he rips a page out of Rob Kardashian's playbook ... it's gonna cost him dearly.

Powerhouse attorney Lisa Bloom sent Ferrari a letter -- obtained by TMZ -- warning him not to sell or post any nude pics or images he might have of her. Bloom says, "Posting online or distributing photos of Ms. White's intimate body parts is a crime punishable by fines and jail time."

And for good measure ... she also brought up California's revenge porn law. Remember, Ferrari already came within a nipple or so of semi-nudes ... when he posted pics of himself and Chyna in bed.

This comes on the heels of BC getting a restraining order against Rob ... who now says he regrets plastering BC's nudes on social media.

Blac Chyna says she's "terrified" of Rob Kardashian, in part because he has a gun and has threatened to use it to kill himself.

Chyna's celeb lawyer, Lisa Bloom, filed new docs Monday, adding to her client's claims of violence. As we reported, she says in addition to Rob attacking her in April, that same month, Chyna now says Rob punched her, knocked her to the ground and she ran in fear to her bedroom, where Rob punched a hole through the door to get at her.

Chyna says she's afraid the new series of online attacks -- where he posted naked pics of her and other personal information -- "will lead to increased irrational behavior and that he might harm her in his anger."

Blac Chyna got the restraining order she sought against Rob Kardashian ... and she celebrated outside court with her attorneys.

Chyna was flanked by Lisa Bloom and Walter Mosley as they laid out the terms of the restraining order. Rob is now barred from any further cyberbullying of Chyna -- including posting photos or videos of her, or making any personal comments about her. He also has to stay away from her.

Rob was not in court, but his attorney, Robert Shapiro, was ... and also spoke briefly to the media after the hearing. As we first reported, Shapiro did not contest the restraining order ... and said Rob is just interested in doing what's best for their daughter, Dream.

Rob Kardashian will not fight Blac Chyna in court Monday ... we've learned he will agree to the restraining order she is seeking against him.

Rob's lawyer, Robert Shapiro, tells TMZ, Rob's cyberbullying last week was "a spontaneous reaction that he regrets."

We're told Shapiro will appear on Rob's behalf and immediately tell the judge there is no need for a hearing because Rob has no interest contesting her request for a restraining order that prohibits him from posting personal information about her and intimate photos as well.
