Drake claims he's the victim of a pyramid scheme -- and is targeting a prominent jeweler.

TMZ broke the story ... New York jeweler Michael Raphael of Baden Baden, Inc. claims he created a $50K diamond studded platinum owl pendant for Drake ... based on a logo he's been using for years. The jeweler claimed Drizzy then knocked off replicas of the pendant ... thus the lawsuit.

In his legal docs, Drake says the jeweler doesn't own the design -- pharaohs do ... because it's based on an ancient Egyptian hieroglyph -- a symbol that may be more than 5,000 years old.

Drake says the owl hieroglyph -- a pictographic symbol for the letter 'M' -- can't be copyrighted ... so the jeweler's case is bogus.

Drake wants the jeweler to Tut up ... so he's asking the judge to throw the case out.

NY Fashion Week is looking like an episode of Wild Kingdom .... only with tortured, dead animals.

With NYC temps in the 20s ... the glam squad is breaking out expensive fur coats made of wild beasts -- sable, lynx, mink, fox.

Mary J. Blige ... Debra Messing ... Kenya Moore... Chrissy Teigen ... all offenders.

Paris Hilton says of all the stalkers she's ever had ... the guy who showed up at her L.A. home covered in Paris tats is the creepiest.

Paris put as much domestic distance as she could between the now-jailed German fan and herself. She immediately flew 2,475 miles to NYC ... where she told us the bitter cold is way better than the sunny stalker.

Ashley Benson may THINK she's heroin chic ... but we're guessing the prevailing view is that she's heroin creep ... wearing this the day after Phillip Seymour Hoffman was buried.

The "Spring Breakers" star roamed around West Hollywood Saturday in a black T with the words "DJ Heroin" emblazoned on it.

It's especially startling ... because just a few days before she tweeted a pic of Hoffman with the warning, "Don't do drugs."

Justin Bieber was the belle of the ball Wednesday night as he revealed his boyish body -- to the amusement of a dozen big-time rappers at Diddy's Atlanta blowout.

Bieber's new GF, Chantel Jeffries, was in tow at Vanquish nightclub as he went around the room, mugging with Diddy, T.I., Jermaine Dupri, Wale, Rick Ross, Lil Scrappy and Trinidad James.

Bieber was a minority of one as he lost his shirt in the crowd but not his bling. And, even though there were lots of bottles poppin' ... Bieber stuck to bottled water the entire night.

Iron Maiden just got taken to the cleaners by Mandy Moore ... to be neatly sanitized, steamed and pressed.

Apparently big celebs don't toss their dirty, old rock n' roll t-shirts into a washing machine like the rest of us ... because Mandy took her classic Iron Maiden t-shirt to a dry cleaners -- where it was freshly cleaned, ironed and sheathed in plastic.

That just ain't right.

No wonder Eddie Murphy played the donkey in "Shrek" ... his daughters got ASS.

19-year-old Shayne and 24-year-old Bria -- Eddie's children with ex-wife Nicole Murphy -- recently posed for some lingerie modeling shots and wow ... just wow. They grew up fast.

It's a really tough call ... but we still gotta ask ...

In what could be some hardcore lobbying for a Super Bowl in Foxboro, Patriots owner Robert Craft spent some quality 1-on-1 time with NFL commish Roger Goodell yesterday ... and TMZ Sports has the footage.

The two were casually walking down the streets of NYC together when our camera guy took notice. R&R even got into the same SUV to continue their conversation.

It's unclear why they were hanging out, or where they were going, but we do know Craft has been very vocal about praising Goodell for having the SB in a cold-weather city like New York ... and some people believe he's angling to get the big game in his neck of the woods in the near future.

... or maybe they were just discussing their penchant for expensive black overcoats.

Either way, we gotta ask ...

Diddy was clearly overdressed during a pre-Super Bowl visit to a landmark greasy spoon in Harlem.

We're told Diddy -- and his 15-person entourage that included Ashanti and French Montana -- rolled up at around 3 am to a famous outdoor food stand called O'fishole Sea Food -- long known in the hood by its previous name -- Willie's Burgers.

After ordering at the walk-up window -- 5 orders of cheeseburgers with fries and 3 fish and chips -- we're told the group created quite the spectacle as they sat on a brick wall and chowed down.

Ashanti left a $100 tip ... on a $40 bill.

The manager tells TMZ, "Coming here is the hood thing to do."

The decent thing to do ... stop wearing fur.

Joe Namath's show-stopping fur coat was a last-minute purchase that he decided he "HAD" to have after seeing it at a fur store just days before the Super Bowl ... TMZ Sports has learned.

Turns out, Namath picked up the coat on Wednesday from Marc Kaufman Furs in NYC.

We spoke with Kaufman himself, who told us Joe came into the store with his daughter and was on a mission to find the perfect fancy coat for the Super Bowl coin flip.

That's when Joe noticed a white stunner on one of the racks -- which was comprised of a coyote-base mixed with some white fox.

We're told Joe said, "This is perfect for me" ... and decided he had to have it.

Kaufman says the coat ran Joe a cool $3,000.

And get this ... Kaufman says Namath's fashion statement has been huge for business -- "My phone hasn't stopped ringing."

Lindsay Lohan has FOUND her precious fur coat ... and it's all because of a member of the Seattle Seahawks.

We broke the story ... Lindsay claimed her $75,000 fur went missing at 1 OAK early Thursday morning.

Turns out ... it was a 2-piece fur and Lindsay claims she left one piece in the club. 1 OAK reportedly said Lindsay was full of it and did not lose anything inside their club.

But now Lindsay says she got the coat back, thanks to Seahawks wide receiver Sidney Rice, who was at Lindsay's table.

We're told after Lindsay left the club, Rice noticed she had left the garment behind and took it home for safe keeping. He contacted Lindsay the next day and her people picked it up.

Vanessa Hudgens is so aggressively cutting ties with her Disney past ... that she's using the mouse house -- and her smoking hot body -- to push high grade marijuana.

The next Mickey Mouse Club reunion is gonna be fuuuuuun!

Lindsay Lohan claims half of her $75K coat went missing at a New York nightclub ... and it's the SAME club where she walked out with someone else's hugely expensive coat 6 years before.

We've learned Lindsay was partying at 1Oak Wednesday night. She says she went in with a $75,000 2 piece fur coat.

Lindsay claims she walked out with only one of the 2 pieces on ... and when she realized she left the other half inside she went back but it was nowhere to be seen.

We're told Lindsay called almost everyone who was at her table ... to see if anyone had walked off with the half-a-coat or knew its whereabouts.

Sources tell us ... Lindsay claims the only person who she hasn't been able to contact is a Seahawks player ... who she says was at her table.

As for the prior incident ... you may recall Lindsay was at 1Oak in 2008 when she walked out with someone's $12,000 mink coat. The owner sued Lindsay.

Lindsay Lohan ... making the case for faux fur.

Zac Efron has nothing on Vanessa Hudgens ... she's using the Disney moniker to push the finest weed around.

Vanessa was out joggin in Runyon Canyon in Hollywood yesterday, wearing a tank top with the word dank -- slang for good weed -- with a marijuana leaf for the letter "a" and the Disney "D."

It's sort of amazing ... another Disney star turning on the mouse.

It sort of gives new meaning to "High School Musical."

You just knew those Daft Punk dudes had to get out of their robot suits eventually -- and lucky for us ... we captured the awesome moment their faces were revealed!

But here's the thing -- sometimes expectations suck.

Jay Z pulled out all the stops Tuesday night during J. Cole's b-day concert in NYC -- surprising the 29-year-old rapper with an incredible guest performance ... before handing over a priceless piece of rap history.

The crowd went WILD at the Garden -- Hov came on stage and performed "PSA" while J.Cole stood in shock ... it was awesome.

But the best moment by far was when the music stopped ... Jay Z pointed at the diamond chain around J. Cole's neck -- Jay Z's original Roc-A-Fella chain from when he founded the label in the 90s.

J. Cole thought he was wearing the chain on loan for the night ... but Jay Z turned to him and said, "That, on your neck, is my original Roc chain -- and it's yours."

Legendary.
