Maria Sharapova was just hit with a TWO YEAR BAN by the International Tennis Federation for doping ... but she claims it's "unfair" and vows to appeal.

The ITF just issued a statement saying Sharapova's urine tested positive for meldonium -- a metabolic modulator that's prohibited in the sport.

The ITF says it cut Sharapova a break when it comes to the punishment because she "promptly admitted" to the offense. Instead of starting the 2-year ban today, they will backdate the suspension to January 26 -- the date of the sample collection.

The ITF also ruled that her results at the 2016 Australian Open should be disqualified -- and she must forfeit her ranking points and prize money that she won at that event.

For her part, Sharapova says she did NOT intentionally use the substance -- and wants her fans to know she should not be considered a cheater.

"The ITF spent tremendous amounts of time and resources trying to prove I intentionally violated the anti-doping rules and the tribunal concluded I did not," Sharapova said in a statement.

"You need to know that the ITF asked the tribunal to suspend me for four years – the required suspension for an intentional violation -- and the tribunal rejected the ITF’s position."

Sharapova says she will fight the decision -- "I cannot accept an unfairly harsh two-year suspension ... I will immediately appeal the suspension."

"I intend to stand for what I believe is right and that’s why I will fight to be back on the tennis court as soon as possible."

Wiz Khalifa's luxury ride wasn't the only thing rolling on the Sunset Strip Tuesday night.

Wiz popped opened the door to his Rolls Royce -- one of the many cars Wiz got to keep in his divorce -- outside Bootsy Bellows, and the evidence of his joint rolling skills was right there on the floor.

Some car owners hang pine tree air fresheners, Wiz does it his way.

Imagine a party with 300 rolled joints, cake pop edibles, jars of weed, and Pamela Anderson rolling on the grass: Welcome to G-Eazy's 27th birthday bash!!!

The rapper celebrated at a sick crib in Malibu over the weekend, and the catering was the talk of the night. Think birthday buds and edibles, lots of them courtesy of Kush Kakery -- yes, Cali has weed bakeries. And if guests like PartyNextDoor, YG, Ryan Phillippe, Pia Mia and Pam got the munchies ... the In-N-Out truck had that covered.

G's party also had strippers and a YG performance, but no one had more fun than Pam and famed photog David LaChapelle. One too many Kush Kake pops?

Jordan Cashmyer has checked into rehab after her drinking spiraled so out of control, she gave herself a concussion and a black eye ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the "16 & Pregnant" star tell us Jordan's spending 30 days at a rehab facility in Baltimore. Her rock bottom started earlier this month -- we're told Jordan's booze habit started affecting her job at a gym ... and she got fired.

Then late last week, after a night of heavy drinking ... she stumbled into her mother's house and fell so hard, she smacked her head on the ground and suffered a concussion.

Our sources say the injury made Jordan realize it's time to "get her life together."

9:45 AM PT -- Clinton got sprung. He posted bail, and is scheduled to be in court in September.

Hillary Clinton's brother-in-law is sitting in a jail cell after getting busted for DUI in Southern California ... just 2 days before the crucial CA primary vote.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Roger Clinton was arrested Sunday just after 8 PM in Redondo Beach. He was booked for driving under the influence, and we're told he refused blood alcohol testing.

Roger remains in police custody. His bail is set at $15,000.

Clinton was also arrested for DUI in 2001. That same year, President Clinton infamously pardoned his half-brother for a drug charge.

Unless he bails out before Tuesday ... there goes one vote for Hillary.

Lamar Odom flatly rejected the "tough love" intervention, so his other family is trying a different approach ... TLC.

Johnny Manziel is being sued for allegedly wrecking the Hollywood Hills mansion he rented back in April -- with the real estate broker claiming the QB threw drug-fueled ragers in the place and destroyed thousands of dollars in property.

The man behind the suit is Nicholas Goodwin -- who says he was approached by a man who called himself "Travis" about renting the 5,000 square foot pad back in April. When "Travis" showed up to the home, Nick recognized it was really Johnny Manziel.

Lamar Odom's family and friends believe he's back on hard drugs -- and tell us they recently confronted the NBA star and questioned him about crack pipes in his home.

Odom's history with crack is well-documented -- but people close to him thought he'd been scared straight after he overdosed at a Nevada brothel back in October.

But multiple sources close to Odom -- hoping to get through to the NBA star -- tell us he's been acting very strange lately. His friends are convinced he's off the wagon, and for the last few weeks they've been trying to get through to him.

So, a group of people went to his home to convince him to enter rehab -- but Odom scoffed ... telling the group he doesn't need any help. It sounds just like the failed intervention attempt from 2013.

During the confrontation, which took place at Odom's home in Calabasas, we're told his friends noticed drug paraphernalia scattered all over the place ... including crack pipes, baggies and roaches.

We're told the fear is that Odom believes he's invincible -- as evidenced by the fact he's been hitting bars and drinking while still recovering from the damage he suffered from the overdose.

We reached out to Odom for comment -- so far, no word back.

TMZ has obtained Prince's

... which lists, among many other things, his official time of death as 10:07 AM on April 21.

That detail is a little misleading -- that's the time he was pronounced dead by paramedics on scene at Paisley Park. It's not the time he actually died ... since it's possible the singer had passed away long before authorities arrived.

Johnny Depp is partying overseas like a guy with no concerns -- such as a divorce from Amber Heard or domestic violence allegations.

Johnny and his Hollywood Vampires roadies hit up the Under Masken in Denmark Wednesday night where we're told Johnny was drinking and chatting up bar staff until 4 AM.

Bartender Hartvig Hansen tells TMZ ... the reports Johnny got into a fight with a bodyguard are not true. He says the actor knocked back 3 vodka tonics, with limes -- and a bottle of champagne was passed around.

The Daily Mail got photos of Johnny outside the bar with his entourage. Some people thought it looked like he took a swing at one of his bodyguards, but Hartvig says the pic is deceiving -- Johnny really just has his arm around a chick while he's talking to the guys.

Prince's death has triggered a criminal investigation over how the singer got the opioid that killed him ... and our sources say it's more complicated than a simple prescription.

Sources connected with the investigation tell us they have known "for a long time" that Fentanyl -- an incredibly potent opioid up to 100 times more powerful than morphine -- was the cause of death.

Law enforcement sources tell us the investigation has focused on the "illicit" possession of the drug.

One law enforcement source would not confirm the basis of the investigation, but mentioned one trigger for a criminal probe would be if a doctor prescribed meds to a third party knowing the drug was going to someone else. We don't know if Rx bottles in someone else's name were found at Prince's home at the time of death.

We're told both state and federal prosecutors are investigating both how Prince got the drug and who facilitated it.

As we reported, authorities already obtained a search warrant for Prince's primary physician. They also executed a search at a Walgreen's pharmacy that filled a prescription for the singer. We don't know if authorities found a connection between the doctor, the pharmacy and the Fentanyl that killed Prince.

Prince died from an opioid overdose ... it's now official from the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office, and the drug is even more powerful than Percocet.

The M.E. performed toxicology tests on the singer and determined the singer died of an accidental overdose of Fentanyl -- a powerful synthetic opiate that is more potent than morphine ... often used for cancer patients to deal with severe pain.

Fentanyl is often used to treat people who have developed a tolerance to less powerful opiates such as Percocet and morphine.

And this is important ... there were several reports Prince had either AIDS or HIV, but the report says there were no "other significant conditions" that led to his death ... clearly refuting the stories.

According to the report ... Prince was discovered fully dressed ... wearing a black cap, black shirt, gray undershirt, black pants, black boxer briefs and black socks.

Also interesting ... Prince weighed a petite 112 lbs and stood 5'3" at the time of his death.

We broke numerous stories -- Prince was addicted to Percocet. As we first reported, Prince's private jet was forced to make an emergency landing when the singer almost died after ODing on Percocet 6 days before he was found dead in an elevator.

Prince had made at least 4 trips to a local drugstore in the week preceding his death ... to fill prescriptions.

His addiction was so bad his people called a rehab doctor in California to get him emergency help. The doctor's son flew out to Minnesota and was in the Paisley Park compound -- with a backpack filled with synthetic opioids -- when the 57-year-old singer was found dead. The doctor's son, who is not himself a doctor, denies giving Prince any of the pills.

Farrah Franklin, a former Destiny's Child singer, got busted for public intoxication -- note the red nose in her mug shot -- and allegedly told police she should've downed even more alcohol.

According to cops ... Farrah got into an argument with a male friend around 3 AM Thursday outside a gym in DeKalb County, GA. When officers showed up she said she was not ready to go home, and added ... "These n***** won't leave me alone."

Cops noticed signs of drunkenness -- odor of booze, slurred speech and bloodshot eyes -- and asked how much she'd been drinking. She fired back, "Not enough."

Farrah -- who was in DC from 1999 to 2000 -- was arrested and booked for public intoxication and possession of a small amount of weed.

Fetty Wap wants officials at his old high school to quit bitching about the music video he shot there ... telling us they've totally misinterpreted the images that have everyone up in arms.

Sources close to the rapper tell TMZ the rap video "Wake Up" is NOT about drug use, and it's really a symbolic reference to getting high off success and finding your path after graduation.

While there are plenty of marijuana references -- Fetty also raps, "Get meditated over medicated." We're told his goal was to illustrate what high school kids deal with today ... and start a conversation about how to change things.

Fetty dropped out of Eastside High School in Paterson, but returned to shoot the video. Now that it's out, the school district's investigating to find out who greenlit the project.

We're told Fetty had the necessary approvals.

Jay Z and Pusha T clapped back at the conservative news host who blasted Beyonce after the Super Bowl -- by taking her words and slapping it on their new track ... "Drug Dealers Anonymous."

You'll recall, "TheBlaze" host Tomi Lahren ripped Bey by barking ... "Your husband was a drug dealer. For 14 years he sold crack cocaine!"

Well, check out Pusha and Jay's song -- they dropped Lahren's words right into the song ... which happens to be all about dealing drugs.

As you'd expect, Lahren's already responding and, ironically, helping them promote the track.

There will be no puff and pump for James Woods ... 'cause the Hollywood legend says Ricky Williams' new weed gym is a terrible and dangerous idea.
