UFC's Mickey Gall CM Punk's A Liar 'He Don't Want A Rematch'

Published | Updated

CM Punk says he would LOVE to get back in the cage with Mickey Gall ever since he got destroyed in their tilt two years ago ... but Gall says Punk's a liar -- telling TMZ Sports, "HE DON'T WANT THAT!!"

Gall is convinced Punk's been talking about running it back knowin' damn well the UFC won't let the former WWE star back in the Octagon with him and let him get his ass kicked AGAIN.

"I think he's a liar. I think he's a liar. I don't think he actually wants that," Mickey told us.

"I don't think they'll let that happen to him again."

BUT ... Gall says there is a scenario where he WOULD give Punk a rematch -- and it involves CM's bout with Mike Jackson at UFC 225 this weekend.

Speaking of which ... having beaten both Punk and Jackson in the past couple years -- we had to ask Mickey for his take on who'll win Saturday night ... and his answer might surprise you!!

Dennis Graham Goes Where Drake Won't ... Shades Pusha T!!!

Published | Updated

Drake's dad, Dennis Graham, is throwing gasoline on a fire that's supposedly extinguished ... by taking some shots at his son's rap rival, Pusha T.

We got Dennis leaving Delilah on Wednesday night in WeHo and wanted to ask him something about Pusha. As we told you ... Drake's had a new diss track locked and loaded, but didn't release it after J Prince told him to stand down.

Dennis, apparently, didn't get that message. Now, we're not saying this even rises to the level of "Duppy Freestyle" ... it's more like Dad-style shade.

Still, Dennis claims Pusha's just not on his radar. Or so he claims.

Tekashi69 Blames Chief Keef's Music for Shooting ... Throws Jab at J. Cole

IT'S THE NAME OF THE GAME

Tekashi69 is distancing himself from any involvement in the attempted shooting of Chief Keef, and says Keef's got no one to blame ... but himself.

The Brooklyn rapper told us Wednesday, on "TMZ Live," Keef's a gangsta rapper who promotes violence ... and claimed that's the real reason he's getting heat on the streets. As we reported, shots were fired at Keef last weekend in NYC, but missed.

6ix9ine insists the violence isn't coming from him ... and claims he's never even shot a gun.

But, you've gotta see his reaction to all the violence around him lately. Tekashi says it's just part of life for rappers, and ditto for fans. And then -- because the Keef beef isn't enough -- he hurled a shot at J. Cole and his fans!

Zero you-know-whats given.

Wiz Khalifa It's All Love with Ye 2016 Twitter Beef Squashed

Published | Updated

Wiz Khalifa has accepted Kanye West's olive branch, saying he'd be willing to give the dude some of the weed that started their feud more than 2 years ago.

We got Wiz Monday night leaving Poppy in WeHo, where we asked if he'd heard Kanye shouting him out on his new track, "Yikes." Wiz says he loved the hypothetical peace-pipe moment Yeezy rapped about and would even be down to share some Khalifa Kush, his personal strain.

In case you missed it ... Kanye lashed out at Wiz in 2016 over what he perceived to be a shot at his wife, Kim. In response, he said Wiz had gotten trapped by a stripper by having a kid with Amber Rose. He later apologized for the misunderstanding.

That's all in the past now, though. Wiz appears to be completely over the spat, and liked the "Yikes" line too. Something must be in the air with all this beef squashing going on.

J Prince Drake Would've Ended Kanye With Next Pusha T Diss Track

Published | Updated
J Prince
IT COULDA BEEN BAD

Kanye West should consider himself lucky Drake isn't firing back at Pusha T, 'cause the track he recorded would've blown up Ye's career ... according to James Prince.

The Rap-A-Lot Records CEO tells us Drake was, in fact, ready to respond to Pusha's "The Story of Adidon" before J Prince stepped in and told him to stand down. According to Prince, what Drake had "cocked and loaded" would've "ended" Kanye, and caused a lot of pain. He insists they're not in the business of destroying families ... which is why he told Drizzy to stand down.

J Prince also doubled down on not resorting to a "pig pen mentality," which he clearly believes Pusha did by attacking Drake's mom, dad, and terminally ill producer. He doesn't consider this an L for Drake either -- despite what fans might be saying.

Of course, Pusha might look at it as a W -- he was hailed as a hero during Kanye's album listening party last week. Shortly after that, Kanye himself said the feud was "dead."

Hard to say if Ye was getting ahead of a potential situation, but that's all moot now ... 'cause the beef is officially squashed. BTW, Prince's book, 'The Art and Science of Respect,' is out now and he talks about some other famous rap beefs, which didn't end well.

Shaunie O'Neal Gloria Govan & Derek Fisher's Wedding? IT'S A NO FOR ME

I'LL BE SKIPPING THAT ONE

Seems there's only one way Shaunie O'Neal would attend Gloria Govan & Derek Fisher's wedding ... OVER HER DEAD BODY ... telling TMZ Sports that's one party she ain't down for.

Derek & Shaq won 3 rings together as Lakers and were tight bros, so one might assume Shaunie could possibly want to attend the nuptials.

Hell no. We got Shaunie at LAX and asked her if she plans on attending, and if the words out of her mouth didn't tell the whole story, the look on her face CLEARLY did.

"No, I don't so. No, I don't think I'll be going to that."

If you didn't know, the ladies have deep issues, stemming from Shaunie's belief that Gloria's sister, Laura, was messing around with Shaq while Shaunie was married to the Diesel.

It led to a HUGE blowup on a past episode of 'Basketball Wives' where Shaunie confronted Gloria ... and it's clear the whole thing isn't water under the bridge.

We're not sure whether it'll be chicken or fish at the wedding ... but, in this case ... it's clearly beef.

Kanye West Drake/Pusha T Beef is 'Dead'

Published | Updated

Kanye West is playing peacemaker and putting a stop to the back-and-forth battle between Pusha T and Drake ... or so he hopes.

Kanye tweeted late Friday night that he's never been about beef -- he's about love -- and says "lines were crossed and it's not good for anyone" ... presumably referring to the ongoing rap beef between Pusha and Drake.

Ye then declared, "so this is dead now."

As we reported ... Pusha dropped a vicious diss track this week titled "The Story of Adidon" which featured album art of Drake in blackface and slammed him for being a deadbeat dad to his alleged secret son.

This came after Drake sent an invoice to Pusha for reviving his career, and his "Duppy Freestyle" took shots at Pusha and Kanye ... in response to Pusha T's song "Infrared" calling out Drizzy for using a ghostwriter.

It's hard to keep up with, but according to Kanye ... it's all over now.

Cedric The Entertainer Give Tracy Morgan a Pass ... Over Tiffany Haddish Rant

Published | Updated

Cedric the Entertainer has a theory on why it SEEMED (keyword: seemed) Tracy Morgan was hating on Tiffany Haddish ... so hear him out.

We got Cedric at LAX on Friday and he went to bat for his buddy and fellow 'Last O.G.' costar, Tracy ... who is taking some heat -- particularly from Lil Rel -- for appearing jealous as hell of Tiffany during an appearance on 'Vulture Spot' last week. ICYMI ... Tracy was asked what it's been like watching Tiff's career take off.

Tracy responded, "We're not gonna go there ... because this isn't Tiffany's show. This is Tracy Morgan."

Cedric chalked it up to exhaustion -- rounds and rounds of interviews. Cedric takes it a step further and says Tiffany can relate.

And it's true ... Tracy eventually shows some love to Tiffany and the rest of the cast and crew towards the end of the clip.

So, all good?

Jalen Ramsey Goes Off On J.R. Smith ... 'Get the Strap!'

Published | Updated

NFL star Jalen Ramsey basically spoke for everyone Thursday night when J.R. Smith brain-farted at the end of the NBA Finals ... questioning how the hell Smith screwed up so badly!

With the game tied, Smith got a crucial rebound with just seconds left in the game -- and instead of taking a shot or passing it to LeBron -- he tried to run out the clock, forcing the game into OT.

And you know the rest of the story goes ...

Jalen Ramsey was so baffled by J.R.'s move, he went to Instagram and fired off a 50 Cent-style rant.

Dude, we all feel your pain ...

Pusha T Mad Props At Kanye's Album Release Party ... For Drake Diss Track

Published | Updated

Kanye was the man of the hour in Wyoming Thursday night -- but Pusha T was a close second -- with fans, celebs and rappers praising him for his Drake diss track.

King Push joined the likes of Kim Kardashian West, Chris Rock, Kid Cudi, Fabolous, Scott Disick, Desiigner, Nas, Big Sean, former manager Scooter Braun, Dame Dash and more at Diamond Cross Ranch in Wyoming Thursday.

Push could barely walk 5 feet without someone stopping him and giving him props for "Story of Adidon" ... a diss track that targeted Drake's ethnicity, childhood and revealed he'd allegedly fathered a secret son.

TMZ broke the story -- Drake's been supporting his alleged baby mama since she gave birth -- and she's supposedly one of several women to make paternity claims against Drizzy.

Damon Wayans Jr. Bow Out of Pusha Beef, Drake ... It's Not Worth It!!!

Published | Updated

Drake should NOT stoop down to Pusha T's level in their war of words, because it's not worth his bottom line ... so says Damon Wayans Jr., who also admits he's enjoying the HELL outta their beef.

We got Damon Thursday at LAX, and he had a strong take on Drake vs. Pusha. Specifically, whether Drake should fire back after Pusha's brutal diss track about Drake's ethnicity, his childhood and his alleged secret son.

He's confident Drake's got it in him to be just as savage ... IF he chooses to respond to Pusha's "Story of Adidon." However ... Damon says there are millions of reasons (or dollars) why it's not a good idea.

In other words, silence really is golden.

Drake Financially Supporting Baby Mama ... Since Birth of Son

Published | Updated

Despite what Pusha T wants people to think -- Drake's been quite the opposite of a "deadbeat dad" behind the scenes, financially supporting his alleged baby mama through and after her pregnancy ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Drake tell us the rapper's been cutting checks to ensure Sophie Brussaux -- the woman Pusha T claims Drake has a secret son with -- lives comfortably. We're told Drake's been supporting Sophie since she gave birth, and just before that as well.

Our sources say Drake plans to take a DNA test to figure out any possible future legalities, but he feels there's a slight chance the kid is his.

And get this -- sources working on Drake's new album tell us he planned to reveal everything about his new son on his upcoming album -- a plan that will obviously need some tweaking.

As we reported ... Pusha T shocked the music world with a diss track targeting Drake's ethnicity, his childhood and claiming Drizzy was the father to a secret son.

Drake's yet to fire back.

Brody Jenner Deeply Hurt Caitlyn Won't Attend His Wedding

Published | Updated

Caitlyn Jenner will not attend her son Brody's wedding, and TMZ has learned it's the result of a profound family divide that goes back to the time Bruce married Kris ... and Brody is deeply hurt.

Jenner family sources tell us Brody is extremely upset his dad has taken a pass for his wedding. We're told Caitlyn has told Brody she can't come because of a lucrative business opportunity ... something that did not sit well with Brody, Brandon, Burt and Cassandra. Our sources say there were heated discussions but, in the end, Caitlyn chose business over the wedding.

We're told the relationship between Brody and Caitlyn has been strained for years. He felt abandoned by his dad when he married Kris. Brody and company lay the blame on both Kris for being "selfish" and Caitlyn for being "an enabler" ... allowing Kris to put a wall between a dad and his kids from other marriages.

Brody has had the hardest time of the 4 kids in forgiving Caitlyn ... partly because the others have connected with their dad with car racing and other sports ... something that doesn't interest Brody.

We're told Caitlyn has issues with some of Brody's "life choices" but the other kids say that should be irrelevant on Brody's wedding day.

The kids feel like both Kris and Caitlyn have not acted like responsible adults when it came to them, and they have suffered deeply as a result. Brody has had the most difficulty letting go of his grudge. Nonetheless, he wanted his dad front and center at his wedding.

As for Brody sending an invite to half-sisters Kylie and Kendall and not even getting an RSVP, we're told the 4 kids don't blame the 2 girls. They say Kylie and Kendall were young when the wall was put up between the families and they never really had a relationship.

BTW ... we're told Caitlyn did go to the bridal shower and does not object to the wedding. Nevertheless, her being a no-show has deepened the wound with Brody.

Pusha T I Didn't Go Too Far on Drake Diss ... In Fact, I Need Answers!

Published | Updated

Pusha T says he has no regrets about hitting Drake with some very low blows about the child he had with an ex-porn star and taking a pic in blackface.

Push spoke with Charlamagne tha God, Angela Yee and DJ Envy on "The Breakfast Club" early Wednesday after dropping his epic diss track, "The Story of Adidon." PT claims Adidon is the name of Drizzy's upcoming Adidas line, and also a reference to his alleged son's name, Adonis.

Push says Drake was asking for all his tea to get spilled because he dragged Pusha's fiancee into the beef. Drake name-checked her in his response diss track, "Duppy Freestyle" -- so, basically, all bets are off now ... the way Pusha sees it, anyway.

It's clear he doesn't think he crossed the line with any of his attacks -- which included making fun of Drake's longtime OVO producer, Noah "40" Shebib, for having multiple sclerosis. In fact, Pusha told the 'Breakfast Club' he's demanding answers for Drake's blackface photo shoot, which is real.

He might not get answers, but we're sure there's a response brewing at OVO HQ.

T.I. on Roseanne Racist Tweet Fueled by Ambien?! GTFOH w/ Excuses!!!

Published | Updated

T.I. straight-up says you wouldn't let a crackhead use being on crack as an excuse for a robbery ... so there's no excusing Roseanne for firing off a racist tweet just because she was on Ambien.

We got the rapper leaving Craig's on Tuesday night in WeHo and had to ask him about "Roseanne" getting canned after the disgraced comedian said President Obama aide Valerie Jarrett was the spawn of the "muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes."

T.I.'s reacting to Roseanne pulling the I-Was-Ambien-Tweeting excuse can be summed up with 3 simple letters -- SMH. We also ask the rapper about Pusha T's album cover, his beef with Drake and what it means for hip-hop.

Tip's got strong feelings about that, too.

Pusha T Reveals Drake Has A Secret Son ... In New Diss Track

Published | Updated

Pusha T went straight for Drake's jugular in a newly released diss track ... taking shots at Drizzy's childhood, alleging he's got a secret son and releasing a photo of a young Drake with blackface.

In the track, titled, "The Story of Adidon" -- mixed over the beat for Jay-Z's "The Story of O.J." -- Push raps, "You are hiding a child, let that boy come home, deadbeat motherf*****."

Pusha T drops Drake's alleged kid's name, saying, "Adonis is your son and he deserves more than an Adidas press run" and targets the baby mama, Sophie ... "Love that baby, respect that girl. Forget she's a porn star, let her be your world."

The new track is a response to Drake's "Duppy Freestyle" released earlier this week targeting Pusha T and Kanye.

Push touches on Drake's race too, saying, "Confused always felt you weren't black enough, afraid to grow it because your fro wasn't nap enough."

"The Story of Adidon" was dropped with artwork of a younger Drake with his face painted black ... a photo which we're told was untouched.
