Celebrity Feuds

Joe Budden compared NBA Youngboy's music to the lowest form of trash 💩 on his recent podcast episode ... a critique that's pissed off NBA to the highest levels of pissitivity -- and Birdman is hot too!!!

As the JBP's latest episode "Malcolm On Ice" came to a close, Joe ripped into NBA YoungBoy's music for being horrible ... with emphasis on the songs being "really, really, really, really bad!!!"

Joe maintained he didn't have anything against YoungBoy personally but painted him as a puppet his record label is using his frequent releases to spam YouTube to entice naive little kids.

The insults were enough for a rare IG response from the reclusive rap star, who's been holed up on house arrest in Utah all year.

YoungBoy informed Budden that despite his opinions, his music was still streaming very well ... and posted an Apple Music screenshot of his latest album's "Decided 2" accomplishments as proof.

He also challenged Joe to come to interview him face-to-face on "Grave Digger Mountain," but judging from his tone and name of the location, it didn't sound like a safe environment.

Birdman considers YB as a little brother in addition to a collaborator and the Cash Money Records boss also used his IG to issue threats to Joe.

Farrah Abraham quiere que todos sepan que ella está en un mejor lugar en la vida que su archienemiga Jenelle Evans.

Le dice a TMZ que ha trabajado duro para convertirse en una gran madre soltera, pero no se puede decir lo mismo de su ex coestrella de "Teen Mom", que instó a un "control de bienestar" el cual se llevó a cabo en su casa a pesar de tener recientes encuentros con los Servicios de Protección Infantil.

Después de que Farrah publicara un montón de videos y fotos de su nuevo novio en un viaje de placer, el posteo se inundó de comentarios negativos, incluso hay gente pidiendo la intervensión de CPS (servicios de protección infantil). Jenelle claramente estuvo de acuerdo con la publicación y luego borró una historia de Facebook el martes diciendo que alguien debería hacerle un control de bienestar a la hija de Farrah porque parecía inestable.

Luego de enterarse de las preocupaciones de Jenelle en las historias de Insta, Farrah agrega que las llamadas de CPS la han devastado y quiere mantener el tema alejado de su familia y sus citas, especialmente ahora que aparece un nuevo hombre en la foto.

Básicamente, Farrah dice que la vida en casa con su hija de 14 años de edad,                               Sophia, es un sueño hecho realidad, a diferencia de Jenelle a quien acusa de invitar a "hombres abusivos a su vida".

Recordemos que TMZ informó hace poco más de una semana que el hijo de 14 años de Jenelle, Jace, fue hospitalizado después de huir de casa. Este era su cuarto intento, incluyendo la vez en septiembre el mismo día que el marido de Jenelle, David Eason, fue acusado de maltratarlo.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que los funcionarios de CPS están preocupados por Jace y si se escapa de nuevo, podría terminar en un centro de detención juvenil.

Farrah Abraham wants everyone to know she's in a better place in life than her archnemesis Jenelle Evans -- but is adamant she's not throwing shade... while throwing shade.

She tells TMZ she's worked hard to become a great single parent but says the same can't be said for her former "Teen Mom" costar ... who urged for a "welfare check" to be conducted at her home despite having recent encounters with Child Protective Services herself.

After Farrah posted a bunch of videos and photos of her new BF on a trip to Turks and Caicos her social media was flooded with negative comments, including people calling for CPS to get involved. Jenelle clearly agreed by posting and then deleting a Facebook story Tuesday saying that someone should do a welfare check on Farrah's daughter because she seemed unstable.

After hitting back at Jenelle's concerns on her IG Stories, Farrah adds the CPS calls have devastated her ... and she wants to keep it out of her family/dating dynamics -- especially with a brand-spankin' new man in the picture.

Basically, Farrah says life at home with her 14-year-old daughter Sophia is a dream ... unlike Jenelle -- whom she implies invites "abusive men into her life."

Remember ... TMZ reported a little over a week ago Jenelle's 14-year-old son Jace was hospitalized after running away from home -- his fourth attempt, including the time in September the same day Jenelle's husband, David Eason, was accused of roughing him up.

Our sources say CPS officials are concerned about Jace ... and if he runs away again, he could end up in a juvenile detention facility.

4:20 PM PT -- As if Lynne's presence wasn't enough proof they're simpatico again ... here she is cradling her daughter ... and vice-versa.

These photos are starting to make the rounds, and they appear to show Brit and Lynne palling around during her birthday get-together. Like we said ... mending fences.

Britney Spears and her mother, Lynne Spears, reunited this weekend and appear to be on the road to reconciliation ... and despite their recent problems, mom seems to realize -- her daughter needs her right now.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that Lynne's drop-in for Brit's birthday party Friday night was no coincidence ... but it is indeed meaningful, especially after everything the two of them -- the Spears family, at large -- have experienced over the past few years.

More recently, Britney torched her immediate family members in her memoir, 'The Woman in Me' ... and as it pertains to Lynne, she accused her throwing out precious valuables of hers -- something Lynne denied.

There were also reports of Lynne selling off some of Britney's famous clothes ... but she denied that too. Of course, Britney has also suggested her mom was just as culpable for her conservatorship as her father, Jamie ... and there's been bad blood for a while there.

The two of them attempted to bury the hatchet earlier this year, pre-memoir, with Lynne flying in to L.A. to meet up with Britney and her then-husband Sam Asghari ... but it was a brief chat, and it wasn't clear whether they were on the greatest of terms at that point.

Now, we're told Lynne and Britney are definitely in a better place ... not only did Lynne swing by for the birthday bash -- but our sources say they were 2 peas in a pod last night, which then turned into Lynne spending the night ... and also, hanging out with Brit today.

As far as what, exactly, spurred this latest coming-together ... our sources tell us Britney's incredibly isolated and alone right now -- especially after divorcing Sam. We're told she has almost no friends or confidants -- and it appears Lynne recognized that.

Britney is still close with her brother, Bryan -- who was also in attendance for her party Friday night -- but she doesn't see him as often. Now, there's another person in her orbit ... somebody of her own flesh and blood, no less.

It's great to see them acting like a family again ... but the same can't be said about Britney and her dad/sister, whom she has not been seen with for several years. By all accounts, she doesn't talk to them ... although there have been signs of warming toward Jamie Lynne.

No better time than now to heal old wounds, we suppose ... it is the holidays, after all.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are being encouraged to speak up on behalf of King Charles after he was named as one of the alleged "Royal racists" -- this per a new report.

The Telegraph cites two sources close to the Royal Family as calling on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to pipe up and defend Chuck amid these renewed claims of racism -- this, of course, after Piers Morgan took it upon himself to ID the King as one of the senior Royals allegedly named in a Dutch translation of a new book touching on the issue.

The other senior Royal who allegedly made remarks about Archie's skin color and who was named in the book, according to Piers, was Kate Middleton ... Prince William's wife.

Now, the context of what either of them allegedly said has yet to be revealed -- but it was apparently concerning enough for Meghan to bring it up in an interview with Oprah.

Remember, Meghan was careful with how she characterized what was allegedly said ... and what the implication might be. But when Oprah asked if these alleged convos were, perhaps, suggesting that Archie being "brown" and too dark would "be a problem" ... Meghan said it was a safe assumption to make. So, she certainly appeared to cosign that narrative.

Of course, on top of airing her concerns to O, MM also wrote letters to Charles sometime after the fact about these alleged remarks ... a revelation that came to light in Omid Scobie's book, "Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival."

It was in this correspondence, according to Scobie, that the people who allegedly made comments about Archie's skin surfaced ... which then somehow leaked in the Netherlands. Those versions were yanked, and Scobie has insisted he doesn't know how the names even got in there in the first place ... claiming he never wrote them down in any draft.

Since 2021 -- when this alleged racism bombshell came to light -- Harry, specifically, has pushed back on what he and Meghan actually alleged about his family at the time. He told a British reporter earlier this year that the media had taken what they said and warped it into a racism accusation. Lately, he's been backpedaling ... merely suggesting implicit bias.

Anyway, fast-forward to right now -- as Charles and Kate's names are being thrown around as alleged racists -- and the Telegraph quotes an insider as saying ... "For the couple that talked about ‘death by a thousand no comments’, the silence at this point is deafening."

Another source they quote says it's "interesting" that Harry and Meghan haven't said anything to either confirm or deny the reports of Charles and Kate being the ones who allegedly made these comments ... especially since they once sought the Palace's help when the 2 of them first got together, and Meg's name was getting dragged through the mud.

Meghan and Harry have famously suggested the Palace's silence at the time was done on purpose -- alleging a coordinated campaign was afoot and claiming the Royals have been in bed with the British press ... while hinting that Meg was offered up as the sacrificial lamb.

What's rich here ... apparently, Buckingham Palace and/or Chuck's inner circle now wants them to go to bat for him -- which is the ultimate irony ... this is, if you buy what Meg/Harry have been selling for a long time. Basically, fans of theirs see this as overdue revenge.

The funniest part about all of this is that the whole "racism" storyline has long been dead in the water -- and Harry didn't even really harp on it during his press run for his own book.

Meghan Markle y el príncipe Harry están siendo alentados a hablar en nombre del rey Carlos después de que fuera nombrado como uno de los presuntos "racistas" al interior de la realeza, de acuerdo a un nuevo informe.

El Telegraph cita dos fuentes cercanas a la Familia Real que le están pidiendo al Duque y la Duquesa de Sussex que hablen y defiendan a Carlos en medio de estas nuevas denuncias, desatadas luego de que Piers Morgan se encargara de identificar al Rey como uno de los supuestos miembros de la realeza que había sido nombrado en un nuevo libro que toca el tema, y que resulta estar traducido al holandés.

El otro miembro de alto rango que supuestamente hizo comentarios sobre el color de piel de Archie y que fue nombrado en el libro, de acuerdo con Piers, es Kate Middleton, la esposa del príncipe Guillermo.

Ahora, el contexto de lo que cualquiera de ellos haya dicho en su momento aún no se ha revelado, pero al parecer fue lo suficientemente preocupante como para que Meghan sacara el tema en una entrevista con Oprah.

Recuerden, Meghan fue cuidadosa en caracterizar lo que supuestamente se dijo, y cuál podría su implicación. Pero cuando Oprah le preguntó si estas supuestas conversaciones apuntaban a sugerir que Archie un color "marrón" o demasiado oscuro podría ser "un problema", Meghan dijo que era una suposición segura. Así que, ciertamente, parecía estar de acuerdo con esa narrativa.

Por supuesto, además de expresar sus preocupaciones a Oprah, Meghan también escribió cartas a Carlos algún tiempo después sobre estos supuestos comentarios, una revelación que salió a la luz en el libro de Omid Scobie, "Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy's Fight for Survival".

Fue en esta correspondencia, según Scobie, que se supo de las personas que supuestamente hicieron comentarios sobre la piel de Archie, la que luego se filtraron en los Países Bajos de alguna manera. Esas versiones fueron retiradas, y Scobie ha insistido en que ni siquiera sabe cómo los nombres llegaron allí en primer lugar, afirmando que nunca los escribió en ningún borrador.

Desde 2021, cuando salió a la luz esta bomba, Harry se ha retractado de lo que él y Meghan realmente alegaron sobre su familia en ese momento. A principios de este año le dijo a un reportero británico que los medios habían tomado sus palabras y las habían deformado en una acusación de racismo. Últimamente, ha dado marcha atrás, limitándose a sugerir un sesgo implícito.

De todos modos, como los nombres de Carlos y Kate están siendo lanzados nuevamente como presuntos racistas, el Telegraph cita a una persona con información privilegiada que dice: "El silencio en este momento es ensordecedor".

Otra fuente que citan dice que es "interesante" que Harry y Meghan no hayan dicho nada para confirmar o negar los informes de que Carlos y Kate son los que supuestamente hicieron estos comentarios. Sobre todo, porque una vez solicitaron la ayuda del Palacio, cuando empezaron a salir por primera vez y el nombre de Meg estaba siendo arrastrado por el barro.

Meghan y Harry han sugerido que el silencio del Palacio en ese momento fue a propósito, alegando que estaba en marcha una campaña coordinada con la prensa británica y que Meg habría sido ofrecida como cordero de sacrificio.

Ahora, el Palacio de Buckingham o el círculo íntimo de Carlos quiere que vayan a pelear por él, lo que es una ironía si se creen lo que Meg y Harry han estado diciendo desde hace mucho tiempo sobre el Palacio. Básicamente, los fans de la pareja ven esto como una venganza atrasada.

La parte más divertida de todo esto es que toda la historia de "racismo" ha estado en punto muerto, y Harry ni siquiera ha insistido en ella durante sus ruedas de prensa para la promoción de su propio libro.

Robert Glasper is all pumped up to face Chris Brown at the Grammy Awards once again .. and tells us he's open to challenging his R&B category competitor to a dance-off!!!

TMZ Hip Hop linked up with Robert this week, where the reigning "Best R&B Album" winner laughed off his past tensions with CB and praised his artistry.

The 2024 Grammy noms went live a few weeks ago where it was revealed that Rob and Breezy going head to head for the 2nd consecutive year, this time in the "Best R&B Performance" category

Rob doesn't rule out the chances of conspiracy pitting him and Chris up against one another, especially after last year's drama.

Losing the award brought out Chris' gangsta side and questioned Robert's entire existence, before cooling off and doing his research and apologizing after seeing RG was a legit contender.

Robert thinks the best well to settle their differences is to hop in the ring and sweat it out in a dance battle ... which could be the highlight of both their Grammy nights.

Adidas woke up and chose violence on Friday ... the sportswear giants went straight for "dusty" Kevin Durant's neck after he took a shot at T'Wolves star Anthony Edwards' sneakers, and fans are losin' it!

It all started when the question was posed ... would KD, a Nike-signed athlete, ever rock Edwards' signature Adidas kicks? 35-year-old Durant answered the question himself, emphatically writing, "Won’t EVER see me put a big toe in them Mfers."

Adidas wasn't going to take that lying down ... their official account, with over 4 million followers, responded, and it was harsh.

"U dusty," Adidas replied. "Bouta retire soon anyway."

The burn has since been deleted, begging the question ... was the tweet sent accidentally from the official brand X account?

That's an answer we don't yet have ... but there's some evidence it wasn't a mistake.

Adidas later added, "Meant to send that from the burner account..."

Of course, Kevin, as NBA fans are well aware, has been caught using burners in the past.

FYI, Edwards' AE1s drop on December 16 ... just in time for Christmas.

Teairra Marí says she's done with Keri Hilson's passive-aggressive attitude and wants to get fully aggressive -- as in serving Keri with a first-class butt kickin' for years of talking behind her back!!!

The R&Beef sizzled on Thursday when Teairra got wind of Keri's chat on Tank's podcast last month.

Keri recalled a time the Teairra was sitting in the front row at one of her concerts and was feeding her toxic "I-don't-wanna-be-here" energy while she was onstage.

The "Pretty Girl Rock" singer says it's important for artists to give one another love during performances, and Teairra was doing the complete opposite.

Teairra didn't take kindly to Keri's recollection of events, and then wrote a fiery threat in the "The Neighborhood Talk" comment section ... "Y'all, people gotta leave me alone. I don't bother anybody, just leave me the f*** alone.! so now, Keri! what's up you wanna fight or do you not want to fight because I'm gonna whoop your ass when I see you I'm sick of you people bothering me! You had a whole different story when I was in your face you're a liar bitch!!"

This battle probably won't be settled with the standard Verzuz setup. Teairra sounds like she wants to inflict pain on Keri by any means necessary!!!

Elon Musk has a message for Disney CEO Bob Iger and all the other advertisers fleeing his social media platform -- don't let the door hit ya on the way out, and go screw yourselves while you're at it.

The owner of X was talking shop on CNBC -- on the heels of his recent Israel visit, and in the wake of antisemitism allegations -- and he fired away about the exodus of corporations cutting ties with him.

Check it out ... he says he actually hopes they stop advertising permanently, and then dropped a very clear "Go f*** yourself" proclamation to everybody who's jumping ship.

You can tell the host was shocked by Elon's choice words -- especially while live on the air -- so, naturally, EM said it again, and then asked if he'd made himself clear. He certainly had!

Elon explained that he feels like he's being blackmailed by these companies with the hope of paying for ads, and emphasized he wouldn't sacrifice his free speech policies for monetary gain ... even if, apparently, it means hurting his bottom line.

Funny enough, Elon singled out Iger in his remarks here, playfully calling out "Bob" as someone who was probably watching in the audience. Indeed, Disney was one of the major companies to pause its advertising with X ... as did many others.

Iger actually addressed that today as well -- before Elon's snipe -- and said, "We know that Elon is larger than life in many respects, and that his name is very much connected to the companies he founded or owns. By him taking the position he took in a public manner, we felt that the association was not necessarily a positive one for us."

Elon Musk tiene un mensaje para el CEO de Disney, Bob Iger, y todos los demás anunciantes que huyen de su plataforma de medios sociales: "No dejes que la puerta te golpee en la salida y vete a la mierda".

El propietario de X habló en la CNBC tras su reciente visita a Israel y a raíz de las acusaciones de antisemitismo disparó sobre el éxodo de las empresas que cortan lazos con él.

Échale un vistazo... dice que espera que dejen de hacer publicidad de forma permanente y luego dejó caer una muy clara "Vete a la mierda" proclamación a todo el mundo que está saltando del barco.

Se puede decir que el presentador se sorprendió por las palabras de Elon - especialmente en directo - por lo que, naturalmente, EM lo dijo de nuevo, y luego le preguntó si había sido claro. Desde luego que sí.

Elon explicó que se siente como si estuviera siendo chantajeado por estas empresas con la esperanza de pagar por los anuncios, e hizo hincapié en que no iba a sacrificar sus políticas de libertad de expresión para la ganancia monetaria ... incluso si, al parecer, significa perjudicar a su línea de fondo.

Curiosamente, Elon señaló a Iger en sus comentarios aquí, llamando juguetonamente a "Bob" como alguien que probablemente estaba viendo en la audiencia. De hecho, Disney fue una de las principales empresas que puso en pausa su publicidad con X... al igual que muchas otras.

Iger también se ha referido a ello hoy, antes del ataque de Elon, y ha dicho: "Sabemos que Elon es más grande que la vida en muchos aspectos, y que su nombre está muy relacionado con las empresas que ha fundado o de las que es propietario. Al adoptar la postura que adoptó de forma pública, sentimos que la asociación no era necesariamente positiva para nosotros."

50 Cent has been relentlessly roasting Diddy amid his legal settlement with former girlfriend Cassie and now wants to make him an offer we're sure Puff will refuse ... to buy his Revolt TV empire.

On Tuesday, 50 gleefully took to IG and told Diddy he'd take Revolt off his hands but needed to cut a deal as he predicted his trusty sponsors in Cadillac and AT&T would likely abandon ship.

50 insisted he and Diddy would be friends if he agreed to sell him the network and it probably wasn't all snark.

The G-Unit rapper has been looking for a home to place his TV shows such as the 'Power' and 'BMF' franchises and having his own platform would solidify his empire ... although the likelihood of Diddy accepting the offer is obviously slim to none.

TMZ broke the story earlier today ... Diddy temporarily stepped down as Chairman of Revolt, leaving the day-to-day operations to his CEO Detavio Samuels and Chief Brand Officer Deon Graham.

The Bad Boy Records mogul has been laying low in the aftermath of the new lawsuits he's facing ... for a pair of alleged rapes in the early 1990s -- which he's dismissed as a money grab each time.

Tom Sandoval sabe dominar el arte del escondite y pudo encontrar paz a cientos de kilómetros de distancia en Nueva Zelanda, mientras el denominado Scandoval estaba en erupción, y todo gracias al rodaje de la serie "Fuerzas Especiales: World's Toughest Test".

La estrella de los reality shows le dice a TMZ que el espectáculo fue una salvación para él, pues le permitió estar lejos de su teléfono, silenciar a los troles de Internet y concentrarse en las personas y las tareas frente a él en el show.

La estrella de "Vanderpump Rules" dijo que apenas pensó en el circo mediático que rodeó el escándalo durante el rodaje del programa de Fox y que su situación allí ni se compara con las dificultades de sus compañeros de equipo en Special Forces, responsabilizando a los medios de comunicación por hacer estallar las cosas cuando no era necesario.

Recién salido del programa después de su estreno este lunes, Tom dice que se sintió increíble poder trabajar en algo que no estuviera relacionado con la controversia con Ariana Madix.

El romance de Tom con su coprotagonista Rachel Leviss fue una de las mayores controversias de celebridades del año, apodado #Scandoval por los fans de "Vanderpump Rules", después de que TMZ publicara la historia por primera vez en marzo.

Ambas damas están viviendo sus mejores vidas después de haberlo pateado cuando estalló el escándalo. En cuanto a Tom, nos dice que está contento de que el rodaje de la temporada 11 de "Vanderpump Rules" esté en el pasado, y claramente todavía está buscando una forma de redimirse para corregir sus errores.

Tom Sandoval mastered the art of hide-and-seek as Scandoval erupted ... ironically finding peace thousands of miles away in New Zealand while filming for the grueling series, "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test."

The reality star tells TMZ the show was a saving grace for him ... allowing him to be away from his phone, silence the haters and zero in on the people and tasks in front of him on the show.

Barely thinking about the media circus surrounding the scandal while filming the Fox show, the "Vanderpump Rules" star adds his situation was just a blip compared to his SF teammates' hardships ... with the media frenzy responsible for blowing things up when they didn't need to be.

Fresh off the show after getting the boot during Monday's episode, Tom says it felt fantastic working hard for something that wasn't related to the Ariana Madix-related controversy.

Tom's affair with costar Rachel Leviss was one of the biggest celebrity controversies of the year ... dubbed #Scandoval by 'VPR' fans after TMZ first broke the story in March.

Both ladies are living their best lives, having kicked him to the curb since the scandal erupted -- and as for Tom, he tells us he's glad filming Season 11 of 'VPR' is behind ... and he's clearly still on a redemption quest to right his wrongs.

Kanye West no parece estar distanciado de su esposa Bianca Censori porque ambos fueron vistos saliendo de fiesta en Dubai.

Mira el video de los dos disfrutando de la juerga en Atlantis. Bianca está allí con Ye, aparentemente pasando un buen rato.

Algunos reportes dicen que los amigos y la familia de Bianca le han dicho que Kanye le está lavando el cerebro para convertirla en una esposa robot, pero ella parece optimista con ello.

Chris Brown, Ty Dolla $ign y otros raperos también estuvieron en la fiesta.

El Atlantis es el mismo hotel donde Kanye y su ex entrenador, Harley Pasternak, tuvieron un encontronazo a principios de esta semana. Kanye dijo que Harley lo estaba acosando en Dubai, pero nuestras fuentes dicen que es mentira.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que Harley se estaba alojando en el mismo hotel que Kanye, y que cuando el rapero se fijó en él trató de darle un abrazo que Harley rechazó. Fue ahí que Kanye se enfadó y empezó a grabarlo. Luego, un gerente del hotel le preguntó a Harley si quería seguridad.

Kanye West does not appear estranged from wife Bianca Censori because they were partying in Dubai.

Check out the video of the two enjoying the shindig at Atlantis. Bianca is right there with Ye, seemingly having a good time.

There have been reports, Bianca's friends and family have convinced her Kanye had brainwashed her into becoming a wife robot, but she seems sanguine with the sitch.

Chris Brown, Ty Dolla $ign and other rappers were also at the party.

The Atlantis is the same hotel where Kanye's trainer, Harley Pasternak, had a run-in with him earlier this week. Kanye had said Harley was stalking him in Dubai, but our sources say that's BS.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ, Harley was staying at the hotel and Kanye noticed him and tried to give him a hug. Harley rebuffed the gesture, and Kanye got pissed and began recording him. A hotel manager asked Harley if he wanted security.
