Celebrity Feuds

Tyler, The Creator cursed out Taylor Swift's Swifties for bringing up his old lyrics in hopes of getting him canceled ... he's doubling down on his wildest words!!!

On Halloween, Tyler surprised his Boston fans with a “Chromakopia” album concert to promote his latest project after he defiantly released it Monday -- against music industry standards.

The release shot Tyler to the top of the Global Spotify Artist chart for 3 consecutive days ... knocking Taylor of that perch, and likely sparking the ire of Swifties everywhere.

But, he fired back defiantly ... addressing Taylor's army while on top of the Converse Flagship Store -- "I got Swifties all mad at me with their racist ass ... Bitch, go listen to 'Tron Cat' -- I don't give a f***!!!"

11:31 AM PT -- Jenna Dewan's fiancé, Steve Kazee, is clarifying his cryptic laughing post he shared in the aftermath of Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz's split ... defending his upload had nothing to do with JD's ex.

Steve posted on his Instagram Stories Wednesday amid the growing controversy ... explaining he was simply laughing about his houseplants.

He wrote ... "A guy can't laugh about a houseplant on Tik Tok in todays [sic] world I see ..."

Naturi Naughton hates to see the angry sparks fly between 50 Cent and Omari Hardwick in the aftermath of the successful "Power" universe they built together ... but she doesn't believe for one second Omari "overvalues" his talent!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Naturi at The I Will Graduate Awards in Brooklyn last night and she tells us the recent series finale of "Power Book II: Ghost" had her highly emotional ... no different than the millions of fans who tuned in.

Remember, her costar Gianni Paolo told us their final cliffhangers dominated the ratings game without benefiting from the Hollywood treatment -- and Naturi hints her character Tasha St. Patrick could resurface down the line 👀!!!

50 Cent is no longer cool with Omari Hardwick, the former face of his "POWER" universe ... simply put, he can't associate himself with all the diva behavior!!!

"The Breakfast Club" quizzed 50 about the current standing of his relationship after Omari insinuated over the summer the Diamond-selling rapper was the reason his Starz paychecks weren't anything to brag over!!!

50 feels Omari overvalues himself all because he hasn't seen, heard, or smelled any buzz from his projects after his "Ghost" character transitioned from his series in 2020.

Sandra "Pepa" Denton gave her former groupmate DJ Spinderella the shock of a lifetime at her annual Halloween party -- but in a good way!!!

We got the proof ... on Sunday, Pepa crashed Spinderella's annual Halloween Boo Bash and stuck around to perform their classic cuts "Push It," "Shoop" and "Whatta Man"!!!

Pepa played the cowgirl and Spinderella was dressed as the Beetlejuice ghost host with the most when she hopped out the DJ booth to perform her "Whatta Man" verse.

Amber Rose says you can't even joke anymore without making international news ... saying she wasn't really throwing shade at Beyoncé -- she was just trollin' a friend.

The model and TV personality was out in full costume for a Hollywood Halloween party when photogs caught up with her ... and, they had to ask about her claims that the Queen Bey copied her speech for a recent Kamala Harris rally.

ICYMI ... Beyoncé spoke at Harris' rally in Houston Friday night alongside her Destiny's Child compatriot Kelly Rowland -- where she said she wasn't speaking as a celebrity or a politician, but instead as a mother.

Charlamagne tha God and Anderson Cooper found themselves in a tense faceoff debating CNN's coverage of former President Donald Trump ... with the radio host suggesting the network doesn't call out 45 for his "fascist" behavior.

The war of words took place during Thursday evening's broadcast, with the CNN broadcaster and the radio personality getting into it on how Trump is discussed versus Vice President Kamala Harris.

As Charlamagne put it ... CNN hadn't held Trump's feet to the fire for the allegedly "fascist" things he's said during his bid for reelection ... including his previous call to "terminate the U.S. Constitution" and "overthrow the election."

Ariana Grande seems to be throwing shade at Elvira in an apology about a perceived diss from back in the day ... at least that's the way we're interpreting things.

On "TMZ Live," Harvey and Charles dove into Ariana's apology to Elvira ... and, when you really break it down, it's not the greatest apology we've ever seen.

Amber Rose speaks softly and carries a big right hook ... 'cause she was asked about her brawl with Joseline Hernandez on "College Hill: Celebrity Edition" -- and, she chose not to talk trash directly.

The model hosted a birthday bash with a Halloween theme Saturday ... complete with a red carpet where she took questions -- including one about the now infamous fight between her and Hernandez on 'College Hill' in 2023.

When asked about the recent footage that came out showing she didn't take a beating like many believed she had, Amber -- dressed like Marie Antoinette -- responds cooly that she's from South Philadelphia ... so, she knows how to brawl.

Young Thug wasn't loving the 2024 Rap Wars -- he just broke focus from his RICO case to convince Drake, Future and Metro Boomin to patch things up!!!

The embattled YSL rapper hasn't posted much during his controversial trial but made his presence felt on Friday when he randomly pled to the ex-friends ... "We all bruddas. Music ain't the same without us collabin."

Thugga's advice probably would have been useful when things between everyone got nuclear ... remember diss tracks flew like fireworks all summer long before Kendrick Lamar emerged with one of the biggest years of his career.

Benzino and Eminem were among the first participators of the diss track-throwin' 2024 Rap Wars that saw Megan Thee Stallion vs. Nicki Minaj, Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake, and beyond ... but Benzino says he's serious about burying the beef. FOREVER.

He thinks it makes all the sense in the world for him and Eminem to be friends ... they're both in their golden years and need to break bread one good time for the culture, of course.

Benzino tells TMZ Hip Hop he was serious about the passionate congratulations he showered on Em in light of news Slim Shady's daughter Hailie Jade is expecting her first child.

Marilyn Manson may still face charges for alleged sexual misconduct ... with the L.A. District Attorney saying new evidence has recently emerged in the case.

Los Angeles County D.A. George Gascón released a statement Thursday ... saying prosecutors in the D.A.'s Sex Crimes Division are reviewing new leads and additional evidence that have come to their attention from the L.A. County Sheriff's Department.

While he didn't provide any details, Gascón adds senior staffers are meeting with accusers in this case before they make a filing decision. He did note he isn't meeting with them personally though ... saying it would be inappropriate for him, as D.A., to do so during the investigation.

Tyler, The Creator had a change of heart -- and change of transmission -- toward Elon Musk during a recent performance, dissing the Tesla CEO in front of thousands of fans!!!

The Grammy winner shut down ACL Festival 2024 last weekend, and folks captured his new rendition of the 2017 "Flower Boy" track "911/Mr. Lonely" ... Tyler flipped the lyrics from "Sucks you can't gas me up / Shout out to Elon" to simply say "F*** Elon!!!"

He didn't miss a beat or slip up the delivery ... the lyric switch could have been pre-planned -- or Tyler meant it with every fiber of his soul in the moment!!!

Taylor Swift put to rest rumors she and Brittany Mahomes were on the outs during Monday night's Kansas City Chiefs game against the New Orleans Saints.

The pop star was strolling through a walkway at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City when she bumped into her pregnant buddy, Brittany, and the two embraced in a huge hug.

Check out the video ... after their warm greeting, Taylor and Brittany were all smiles as they briefly chatted before going their separate ways while the crowd cheered and shot cell phone footage of the encounter.

DDG seems to have plenty of time now that his relationship with Halle Bailey has hit the wall ... he's responding to any and everyone who has an opinion -- especially when it comes to Joe Budden!!!

Joe torched DDG's entire existence while reacting to the split, claiming he only knew of DDG for being leeched to "The Little Mermaid" actress ... and now DDG is promising to use all his digital reach to make Joe and his co-hosts live an Internet hell!!!

On Sunday, DDG turned his reach into overdrive on "No Ordinary Podcast" and ripped into Budden for celebrating his breakup, and vowed to surpass the 'Joe Budden Podcast's legacy.

Drake appears to be "In His Feelings" about his ongoing feud with Kendrick Lamar ... publicly complaining about fake friends amid the drama.

The rapper grabbed the mic at Tyrone Edwards' Nostalgia Party in Toronto Saturday evening ... where he lamented about being dropped by flip-flopping pals.

He noted ... "My real friends are definitely in the building. But, I’m going to tell you, you’re going to come to a point in life where people you thought were friends, or people you thought were close to you, they might switch up."
