Noticeably absent from Weezy's hand ... a cup of lean. But look closely ... a friend appears to be double cupping.

Chris Brown Stoned and Charming During Traffic Stop
Chris Brown was high as a kite when he was stopped by cops in Amsterdam for riding a dirt bike without plates, and somehow he was able to charm his way out of some super serious charges.
The police pulled Chris and his crew over, clearly not knowing he was famous. When Brown's posse dropped the "do-you-know-who-he-is" card, the main cop's knowledge was only as deep as Elvis.
Chris was ticketed and then taken to the station to pay the fine.
As for the super serious charge, Chris clearly could have been busted for DUI, because just minutes before hopping on the bike he and his buddies smoked out a coffee shop.
We don't know how long Chris was riding before he was stopped, but check out his face as a local woman bitched to cops about his riding skills.

Maria Sharapova Suspended 2 Years For Doping ... Vows to Fight It
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."

Johnny Manziel Sued Over Alleged Drug Party You Wrecked Mansion, Pay Up
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.

Lamar Odom Crack Pipes In Home Friends Confront Him Over Alleged Drug Use
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.

Prince Death Certificate
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 Boozing, Not Fighting At Danish Bar
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.
The photos could still be a bad look for Johnny, since Amber's claiming alcohol and drugs fueled the alleged assaults.

Prince Criminal Investigation How Singer Got the Fatal Drug
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.
If someone illegally prescribed or filled a prescription for a patient who dies as a result of the drug, they could face third degree murder charges and up to 25 years in prison.
