Fights & Feuds

Mexico's taking a stand against the Universe ... or, at least their contestant in the Miss Universe pageant is taking a stand against the competition after an exec disrespected her.

Fátima Bosch -- Mexico's representative in the contest -- was attending a pre-pageant event in Thailand ... when executive Nawat Itsaragrisil told the group everyone needed to help promote the country in social media posts.

For some reason, Itsaragrisil singled out Bosch for allegedly refusing to take part in a beach photo shoot contestants could share on their respective accounts ... bizarrely claiming Mexico's pageant director demanded Bosch not post.

The Artist Formerly Known as NLE Choppa just unleashed an explosive diss aimed at NBA YoungBoy in the vein of Tupac Shakur ... but YB's mother thinks his Memphis rival needs to worry about other things -- like coming out the closet!!!

NLE is currently ongoing a rebrand as NLE The Great, and he hammered home his new existence with his new single "KO" ... a visual where NLE transforms into both Michael Jackson and 2Pac, while spoofing YoungBoy as a crackhead who's leading his young fans down a dark path.

Sherhonda Gaulden, YB's mom, devoted plenty of time to ripping NLE on IG ... accusing him of homosexual activity.

50 Cent's "BMF" series is finally a done deal after Starz pulled the plug after 4 seasons, but the G-Unit filmmaker isn't broken up one bit ... on the flipside, he's trolling lead star Demetrius “Lil Meech” Flenory Jr. for not having a fallback plan!!!

It's been all bad between 50 and Meech since that ill-fated link-up with Rick Ross ... and Tuesday, 50 rubbed the "BMF" cancellation news in Meech's face with a photoshopped image to make him look like a bum, sarcastically quipping, "What next season, little ninja"!!!

Starz had been in production talks for months about bringing the series -- based on the rise and fall of the Black Mafia Family crime empire -- but consider that plan kaput now that 50's dancing on the show's grave.

Dee-1 and Jim Jones used the Cash Money-No Limit Verzuz battleground of all places to put PEACE on display -- after their testy back-and-forth made headlines a couple years ago!!!

The confrontation went down in the back area of the Las Vegas Convention Center during ComplexCon last weekend. Jim spotted Dee first and extended his hand ... the two dapped each other up and encouraged the other to "keep going" with their rap hustles.

To add to the diplomatic immunity, Juelz Santana witnessed the moment and embraced Dee on the spot while saluting his mission vision. Juelz's endorsement of their patch-up further highlights the impact of the reconciliation and recognition.

Gavin Newsom says he's done fighting for a chance to go toe-to-toe with Joe Rogan on issues ... dismissing JR as popular, but outdated, AKA "the Facebook of podcasting."

The California governor sat down Monday night with journalist Elex Michaelson on "The Story Is With Elex Michaelson," and during their 10 minute interview, Gavin slammed Rogan for dismissing his repeated requests to go on "The Joe Rogan Experience."

Check out the video ... Gavin seems a bit annoyed as he discusses how Joe has attacked him for years, but refused to ever have him on the podcast for a debate.

Romeo Beckham and Kim Turnbull just made it official ... again ... confirming their rekindled romance with a cozy hand-in-hand stroll through Paris.

The son of David and Victoria Beckham was spotted Sunday walking the streets of the French capital with the model by his side, both smiling and clearly comfortable as they enjoyed a romantic outing. The appearance leaves no doubt the two are back together romantically.

Just three days ago, Romeo shared a black and white photo of the pair relaxing together in a hallway, fueling buzz their relationship had been reignited.

Moneybagg Yo and G Herbo dropped their first-ever collaboration on Friday -- a landmark moment, considering the two have long dodged beef rumors with Ari Fletcher at the center!!!

Directed by Michael Garcia, the "Feet On Land" video showcases Moneybagg and Herbo flashing the iciest of jewelry while burning up New York City in a Ferrari and Rolls-Royce!!!

Herbo and Ari share a son together, and tensions were still high when she moved on with Moneybagg in 2019, but the new duet turns the maturity meter up to level 10!!!

FBI Director Kash Patel blasted ESPN sportscaster Stephen A. Smith during a Fox News interview Thursday, calling him out for saying the "single dumbest thing I’ve ever heard out of anyone in modern history."

Patel launched his verbal assault on Smith after Smith gave his theory on national TV about who he thinks was really behind the federal takedown of a major gambling ring that saw the arrests of Portland Trailblazers head coach Chauncey Billups and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier — as well as members of 4 out of the 5 New York mafia families.

According to Smith, President Trump is on a retribution tour against what he perceives as his enemies in the sports world, including the NBA, for protesting against him. And, Smith says, the WNBA might be next on Trump's hit list.

The Trump administration has changed the White House website's official timeline of the building ... using it as an opportunity to dunk on the last three Democrats to live there.

Here's the deal ... there's a timeline on the White House's official website which lays out the different renovations -- from the building's initial construction at the end of the 18th century to President Donald Trump's newest project, a $250 million grand ballroom many Democrats are decrying.

However, several of the new additions aren't about the architecture at all, but instead what past presidents decided to do there ... beginning with a debrief on President Bill Clinton's cheating scandal with Monica Lewinsky, which resulted in his impeachment.

Sean Payton saw the not-so-subtle jab Russell Wilson made toward him on social media on Tuesday ... but the Broncos head coach is adamant he wasn't shading his former quarterback with the comments he made after Sunday's game -- insisting he was simply complimenting Jaxson Dart.

Payton raised eyebrows after the Broncos pulled off an unbelievable comeback against the Giants ... when he told reporters postgame he had hoped Dart would remain the backup until after their Week 7 matchup -- which some saw as shade to Wilson.

Wilson -- the current New York Giants backup after losing the gig to the rookie -- sent a rare shot at his old coach on Tuesday ... and while he didn't mention Payton by name, it was clear who he was referring to in the post.

TLC's Chilli recently used Boyz II Men and Babyface as an example of a cautionary tale about artists failing after biting the hand that fed them -- but B2M's Wanya Morris is calling it a fairy tale that's completely made up!!!

An old July 2017 interview clip between Chilli and Grammy-winning engineer Leslie Brathwaite has been circulating on Instagram, which graced Wanya's radar on Tuesday night.

Wanya first hinted at betrayal on Chilli's part, writing "Damn sis, Lisa would never???" -- a reference to late TLC band member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, who was known to keep it real no matter what.

Young Thug attempted to play peer mediator between Chris Brown and Kevin McCall's never-ending beef -- a wasted effort because Breezy is telling the world he's been chunked the "deuces" on that relationship!!!

After Kevin's mental breakdown over a $25K payment Chris supposedly owed him on the "Back On Figg" podcast went viral, Thug intervened and told the struggling singer-songwriter that Chris, the megastar, likely had been too busy to address whatever issues they were having.

On the contrary ... Chris had seen the interview and he had the TIME to respond -- and had no mercy for Kevin's crocodile tears, or his money woes.

Kevin Durant took his cold reception in Oklahoma City in stride ... clapping back at a fan's jeers ahead of his debut with the Houston Rockets -- telling the spectator, "boo you, too, motherf***er!!"

K.D. -- who played eight seasons for the Thunder -- visited the reigning NBA champs in the season-opening matchup at the Paycom Center on Tuesday ... and even though it's been nine years since he left the organization for the Golden State Warriors, at least one person in attendance wanted to make it clear they haven't forgiven him just yet.

Instead of getting pissed about the boo birds, Durant sent them right back with a smile on his face ... while also including the F-bomb.

Russell Wilson took aim at Sean Payton on Tuesday ... blasting his former coach for some postgame comments he made on Sunday -- all while referencing "Bountygate."

The New York quarterback fired away at Payton on his X page ... just two days after the Denver head man told reporters he was disappointed the Broncos had to face off with Jaxson Dart -- and not Wilson while at Empower Field at Mile High Stadium.

Payton seemed to indicate Russ would be a much easier assignment ... and the words clearly ticked off his former signal-caller.

8:07 AM PT -- A Delta spokesperson tells TMZ ... “We’re looking into the authenticity of this video. We will address the matter internally if it is confirmed. Civil conduct at all times is expected by those who represent our brand.”

Things have gotten so bad in the airline industry, employees from rival companies are now warring in public when planes aren't falling from the sky.

Take what happened at Atlanta Airport in Georgia between a Delta Airlines flight attendant and a Southwest Airlines gate agent.

Video that's making the rounds this week shows the male flight attendant arguing with the female gate agent over what he perceives as a disgusting airport, repeatedly demanding she clean something up.

"The Real Housewives of Potomac" cast is really going through it ... and Keiarna Stewart dished to Andy Cohen about how she really feels about Dr. Wendy Osefo after her fraud arrest.

Keiarna said, "I was shocked, and to be honest, I was also a little bit disappointed ... All I have to say is, thoughts and prayers for Wendy at this time, because it's sad."

As you know, Wendy and her husband Eddie were arrested earlier this month and booked in Maryland on multiple counts of insurance fraud.
