YBN Almighty Jay Stolen Bling Flaunted in Vid ... Despite J. Prince's Call to 'Mob Ties'
YBN Almighty Jay's alleged attackers are flaunting the rapper's stolen chain in a new music video ... and taunting J Prince in the process.
The Rap-A-Lot Records piece, which was snatched from Jay over the weekend during that brutal NYC street fight, is prominently featured in a new music vid from Zae Numbafive -- the man J Prince is accusing of carrying out the robbery.
Zae's crew is definitely sending a message to J Prince ... dangling the chain in front of the camera, and teasing it all over social media. Translation: What are you gonna do about it?!?
It's a really bold move ... considering J Prince put out an APB to his "mob ties" to nab Zae and his crew. Prince has a good record when it comes to squashing beefs and getting back snatched chains.
It's interesting ... the music vid dropped Monday night, but now Zae is claiming he and his crew had nothing to do with the chain snatching. However, there's no denying ... the bling he's flaunting on camera ... looks a LOT like Jay's.

Sportscaster Warner Wolf Charge Dropped in 'Plantation' War ... Case Dismissed
-
Exclusive Details
- 66 shares
Chalk this one up as a WIN for Warner Wolf -- the legendary sportscaster's charge has been DROPPED in his battle over his gated community's "plantation" sign.
As we previously reported ... officials say Wolf ripped the word, "Plantation," off the sign of the private community where he lives, "Classics Plantation Estates" because he believes the word is offensive.
Wolf had lobbied the homeowners association to make the change for years -- but on Nov. 30, the 81-year-old was fed up and did the job himself.
Wolf was charged with felony criminal mischief last month ... but the 81-year-old says it was all worth it ... 'cause the case has been dismissed, he tells us.
“My attorney, Shannon Mcfee, called me last night and said the prosecutor had decided to have the charge dismissed. Criminal mischief,” Wolf says.
“I gave them $1,100 [for the damages] ... I was in jail for 4 hours. It wasn’t fun.”
Wolf is a sports broadcasting legend -- he worked for ABC Sports and called Monday Night Baseball, football and the Olympics. He also had a cameo in "Rocky IV."
Oh, and you're probably wondering -- “It was worth it.”

Kim Kardashian Paying 5 Years Rent For Man Released from Jail
Kim Kardashian West is making sure one man recently released from jail will have a roof over his head for the next 5 years -- she's picking up his rent bills -- TMZ has confirmed.
Matthew Charles -- who had served 20 of his 35-year sentence for a non-violent drug and weapons charges -- was the first to be released under new prison reform laws. Charles recently had his housing application denied because of his background.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us Kardashian heard about Charles' story and wanted to do what she could to help ... so she's going to pay his rent for the next 5 years.
Kim first heard of Charles' story through an article posted on Twitter -- Charles was first granted early release in May 2016 by mistake -- and two years later was ordered to finish out the rest of his sentence. Charles was able to start to get back on his feet by purchasing a vehicle and staying with friends ... but had a hard time landing a place to live.
We're told Kim reached out to Charles and his friend privately Sunday and generously offered to pay his rent and to help him find a stable place to live.
Charles posted about the good news Sunday, saying, "I just received the most wonderful news tonight that I just had to share with everyone. Kim Kardashian-West heard about my situation. Was moved and has decided to help me."
US Weekly -- who first reported the story -- says Charles plans to save up to buy a home of his own while Kim takes care of the rent bills.

R. Kelly Claims Ex Trashed Him to Their Kids ... Child Support Stopped in Response
R. Kelly is rationalizing his decision to stop paying child support -- claiming his ex-wife set the ball in motion by turning their children against him.
Sources close to R. Kelly tell us the singer was absolutely lashing out at Drea Kelly when he quit writing child support checks ... a move that ultimately landed him in Cook County jail.
We're told Kelly feels like he tried to maintain a relationship with his 3 kids, but he blames Drea for ruining any chance of that. He's said he thinks she brainwashed them.
Of course, Kelly's revenge move is incredibly warped logic -- punishing your ex by cutting off the money needed to help your kids.
We broke the story ... Kelly owes Drea over $160k in back child support, and he was begging the court for a reduction so he could get out of jail. Of course, Kelly coughed up the bare minimum -- $161,633 -- on Saturday and walked out of jail a free man again.
Sources close to the singer tell us he scraped the cash together with the help of a "benefactor." He assured his fans Saturday that "we're gonna straighten all this out."
As we've reported ... Kelly was supposed to be paying Drea $20,833 per month as of January 2009 -- but he fell way off schedule last year.
R. Kelly's camp says the singer got into a huge fight when he last saw Drea back in 2017 ... and after that, we're told she changed her phone number and didn't allow their daughter and 2 sons to talk to him.
Drea paints a much different picture. She told us Kelly cut her off as a means of controlling her when she first spoke publicly about him allegedly abusing her. She also insists he's the one who changed his phone number.
Even after all that, Drea told us she was open to Kelly reconnecting with his kids -- but she says they haven't heard from him since 2017.

EXCLUSIVE

Gerard Butler's restoration effort for a vintage Airstream just hit a huge snag ... because someone stole the trailer straight outta the shop where it was getting tricked out!!!
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... earlier this week, Gerard's 1969 Airstream Silver Sovereign was stolen from the parking lot at a fabrication shop in the San Fernando Valley. We're told someone smashed a gate and made off with the trailer, which is valued at around $11,000.
Our sources say the actor purchased the mobile home out of state and was in the process of having it restored. We're told it was essentially a shell.
If you think you've seen Gerard with a pimped out trailer before, you're right ... he lived in one during his starring role in the 2017 movie, "Geostorm." No word if he was trying to recreate that one.
So far, we're told LAPD has no suspects.
It's another heartbreaking loss for Gerard ... remember, back in November his Malibu home was scorched in those horrific wildfires.

Nicki Minaj French Show Can't Go On Angry Fans Chant 'Cardi B, Cardi B'!!!
France loves starting wars, and might have one with Nicki Minaj now after some angry fans turned on her in the most savage way possible.
First off, Nicki couldn't have been more polite and chill in the way she broke the news to her fans in Bordeaux that Saturday night's concert had to be canceled at the last minute. She says the venue didn't have enough electricity to pull off the show. The same thing happened at another European gig, but Nicki said she planned to make up both gigs.
And, yet ... you've gotta see how some fans inside the arena reacted to the news -- suddenly bursting into a chant of "Cardi B, Cardi B, Cardi B!!!"
Another flop in the basket . Nicki Minaj cancels yet another show probably embarrassed by upcoming videos of the stadium being empty & on top of that your “fans” leave screaming cardi’s name throw the WHOLE tour away 😹⚰️#NickiWRLDTour hang it up sweetie pic.twitter.com/gslHQRxzsC
@MessyAG1_
Très sauvage! The damn accents make the diss even worse ... in our opinion.
Anyway, while that was going on inside the arena, Nicki did have some supportive fans outside her hotel.
As for the Cardi chanters -- we're guessing Nicki ain't sweatin' them too much.
It's not like the French do well in wars.

Justin Bieber Get Your New Drew House Gear!!! Even If You're Still Waiting for the Old
Justin Bieber's clothing line seems to believe the ol' saying, "Always leave them wanting more" ... because his second collection just launched, while some fans wait for the first to deliver.
Several Drew House customers tell TMZ ... they haven't received their orders from the enormously popular brand's Collection 1, which launched on January 29. It was such a hit, it sold out in a day. They say they were told the products would be shipped out in 5-7 business days, but more than a month later, it hasn't happened.
We're told Bieber's company contacted the customers about the delay -- blaming it on "overselling" -- and even offered refunds to folks who don't want to keep waiting. Otherwise, they've been promised the items will be restocked next week and delivered asap.
The hiccups don't seem to be affecting the recent launch of Collection 2 -- which includes more shirts, pants, sweats and hats but in different styles -- because 4 of the 12 new items are already sold out.
True Beliebers think it's worth the wait.

Robert Herjavec $100k Snatched in Burglary!!!

Robert Herjavec might want to invest in something that reminds him to turn on his home security system, because he didn't ... and it cost him big time.
The "Shark Tank" star's Hollywood Hills house was burglarized ... according to law enforcement sources. We're told a thief or thieves hit his pad last weekend, busting in through a window and making off with more than $100k worth of jewelry, cash and some other items.
Our sources say Herjavec's security alarm was not activated at the time of the break-in, so cops weren't called to his place until he got home and discovered it. We're told it's unclear if this heist is connected to other burglaries in the area.
Shame, Robert and the rest of his 'Shark' pals didn't strike a deal with the inventor of Ring (which used to be called DoorBot) when he was on the show. One of those would've come in handy.
As we've reported, there have been a ton of non-celeb and celeb break-ins in the L.A. area for more than a year now -- and 10 gang members were charged with being part of a group targeting homes of the rich and famous.

Adrien Broner Fine ... I'll Pay Off My $1 Million Debt!!!
-
EXCLUSIVE
- 897 shares
Adrien Broner is FINALLY paying off his $1 MILLION jewelry debt ... agreeing to give it all back in 3 installments -- TMZ Sports has learned.
We broke the story ... the boxing star was hit with a lawsuit last year after he allegedly stiffed a jeweler out of more than $1 MILLION in fine jewels.
Pristine Jewelers NY said Broner promised to pay for multiple items which totaled $1.252 Mil ... but his checks never cleared -- and then he refused to follow through on a payment plan.
But, according to legal docs filed this week ... Broner has finally reached a settlement with the company -- and has agreed to pay off his debt.
Per the details of the agreement ... Broner made his first payment on March 4 and will pay $500,000 by Dec. 31, 2019, and then the final $500,000 no later than 6 months after that.
It's interesting ... according to docs -- Broner struck the agreement with the jeweler on Feb. 15 -- just a couple weeks after he reportedly earned a $2.5 MILLION check from scrapping with Manny Pacquiao.
Unclear who Adrien will fight next ... but if he's looking to cash in on an exhibition match -- we know there's a boxing analyst out there that'd be a PERFECT fit.

Marcedes Lewis Jaguars Should Sign Nick Foles ... But Don't Break The Bank!!!
Jacksonville legend Marcedes Lewis says the Jags would be a great fit for Nick Foles ... but tells TMZ Sports the price has to be right, saying the deal should be worth just $16-$17 mil per year.
Of course, Foles is set to hit the open market next week after the Eagles decided to let the QB walk... and Jacksonville has already become the favorite to land the former Super Bowl MVP.
In fact, some reports have indicated the Jags are so high on him ... he could command a $20-plus MILLION deal per season.
But, Lewis seems to think that'd be a mistake -- saying Jacksonville should only ink him to a short-term, $16-$17 million per season contract.
And, why?? Marcedes says Foles shouldn't be viewed as the long-term answer ... but rather a bridge to a QB Jacksonville pick in next month's NFL Draft.
As for the QB Marcedes would select there ... he tells us why he prefers Dwayne Haskins over Kyler Murray.
There's more ... the Pro Bowl tight end also weighed in on NFL combine freak show D.K. Metcalf -- and as a fellow big man with an insane physique -- he even gave the young WR some advice!!!

R. Kelly Pays Child Support ... Released From Jail
R. Kelly's back on the streets after finally covering his unpaid child support.
The singer forked over the $161,633 he owes to ex-wife, Drea Kelly, and was released Saturday morning from Cook County Jail. As he walked out, Kelly said, "I promise we're gonna straighten all this out. That's all I can say right now. I love my fans."
Interestingly, he did have fans screaming for him outside ... including one woman who yelled, "Please touch my hand!"
Sources connected to Kelly tell us he scraped together the money with help from a "benefactor."
As we reported ... R. Kelly was arrested Wednesday when he missed the deadline to settle up his back child support. During his CBS interview, he blamed his ex for his failure to pay her ... claiming her "lies" about abuse are the reason he can't make any money.
He also claims he's trying to reconnect with his 3 kids, but sources close to the situation say that's BS ... he hasn't even reached out to his family in nearly 2 years.
Kelly's legal woes are just getting started. As you know, he's still facing 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse in Chicago, multiple federal investigations ... and new sexual misconduct allegations in Detroit.
As we've reported ... the feds are looking into whether R. Kelly violated the Mann Act, which prohibits transportation of minors across state lines for purpose of sex or debauchery. Attorney Michael Avenatti now says he has evidence to nail R. Kelly for that too.
Our investigation has now uncovered significant additional evidence that R Kelly and his handlers transported underage girls across state lines for the purpose of allowing him to sexually assault them. We will be turning over the evidence to law enforcement forthwith.
@MichaelAvenatti
Remember, Avenatti also turned over 2 new sex tapes which prompted the 10 count indictment against Kelly.

Jack Osbourne Divorce Lisa Gets $1 Million ... He Gets Banksy Art
Jack Osbourne won't pay spousal support in his divorce, but he is making a one-time payment of $1 million dollars to his ex, Lisa.
TMZ broke the story ... the judge finalized Lisa and Jacks's divorce earlier this week, but newly released docs reveal details of their settlement. For instance, Lisa gets the $1 mil settlement tax-free ... and Jack already paid her $300k. According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, he loaned it to her last year to buy a house.
She also gets the ex-couple's 2017 Audi Q7 and full ownership of her companies, Raddestmom, LLC and Fancy Sprinkles, Inc.
And, it's clear Jack treasures his artworks. According to the docs, he will keep 17 pieces that were gifts from his folks, Sharon and Ozzy. The art includes 2 Banksys valued at more than $165k and 2 Andy Warhols -- including the Campbell Soup Apron -- worth nearly $49k.
Total value of the artworks is $346k. Beyond that, Jack also gets all of his production companies.
They're sharing legal and physical custody of their 3 kids -- and Jack will pay $7,000 per month in child support. Also, neither of them can post anything on social media about their relationship ... and they also can't write books, movies or TV productions about each other.
All in all, it's a pretty amicable split ... at least now.
They had a rough patch at first when Jack punched Lisa's new bf, but as they told us -- they'd like Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin to be their divorce spirit animals.

Kylie Jenner I'll Get the Check ... Billionaire Celebration with Caitlyn
Kylie Jenner's getting some love from her, no doubt, incredibly proud papa -- as they celebrate her huge financial milestone with a fancy dinner in Malibu.
Caitlyn Jenner hugged it out with her daughter Friday night outside Nobu. We're guessing they hooked up to raise a glass to Kylie for officially reaching billionaire status, according to Forbes ... at just 21 years old. Yes, she's also the world's youngest self-made billionaire ever.
The father-daughter dinner came complete with a third wheel -- Caitlyn's partner, Sophia Hutchins, and the loving family scene at the end of the meal raises just one question.
We've all been there ... that awkward moment when you're a working adult and go out to dinner with a parent. WHO picks up the check??
Y'know Caitlyn had to offer -- after all, her net worth is reportedly an estimated, and totally respectable, $100 mil. She's used to paying, but maybe juuust this once ... ya let the kid slap down her black card.
It's Kylie's time to shine.

'Wolf of Wall Street' 4 Yrs. Sounds Right for Paul Manafort ... He's Old as Dirt!!!
Trump campaign manager-turned federal con Paul Manafort's incredibly light prison sentence isn't as outrageous as many think ... at least according to Jordan Belfort, who knows plenty about prison.
We got the real-life "Wolf of Wall Street" Friday at LAX and he weighed in on a couple of big crime and punishment stories. Jordan, who himself was sentenced to almost 4 years, says it's pretty clear Manafort caught a break because he's an old man.
As Belfort put it ... 3 years and 11 months makes sense because "how many years does he have left?"
Manafort is 69, BTW ... and could get more years tacked on next week when he's sentenced in his conspiracy case.
The 'Wolf' also has an opinion on Jussie Smollett, who just got indicted for a staggering 16 counts in Chicago. He says what the "Empire" star allegedly did is awful, but check out what kinda sentenced he'd give him.
Disorder in the court ... Judge Belfort has ruled!
