"Astroworld" was just the start ... Travis Scott's now looking to take his brand to another world, like a true space cadet.

The rapper recently filed paperwork to acquire the rights to "S.P.A.C.E" ... and it looks like he wants to plaster that term all over a wide variety of merchandise.

According to the docs, obtained by TMZ, Travis has earthly plans to produce "S.P.A.C.E" branded clothing, jewelry, cosmetics, fragrances, non-alcoholic beverages and an online retail store to sell it all.

Scott also filed docs to lock down "S.P.A.C.E 1991" and "S.P.A.C.E 2001." What's not clear in the docs is what the hell it stands for, if anything. It's possible he's just a Stanley Kubrick fan.

Vanilla Ice doesn't live with his estranged wife anymore, but she claims he should still pony up for desperately needed home repairs ... 'cause the HOA is breathing down her neck!!!

VI and Laura Van Winkle are in the middle of a divorce ... and she's asking the court to make Ice open his wallet and pay for repairs on the home they share in Florida -- according to legal docs obtained by TMZ.

Laura lives in the home with their daughter, and she says the HOA is PISSED they have a dirty or mildewed roof and no fence around their pool. The horror!!!

Forget an iced latte, Stefon Diggs just got an iced out Starbucks chain -- and it's all because the dude is OBSESSED with the coffee house ... TMZ Sports has learned.

In case you didn't know ... the Minnesota Vikings star WR is a self-proclaimed Starbucks addict (he even wore Starbucks-themed cleats against Seattle last season).

But, Diggs decided to take it one step further ... hitting up Al the Jeweler from Labelle Jewelry in Totowa, NJ to create a diamond-studded tribute to the java joint.

Al tells TMZ Sports the piece -- which features more than 1,000 emeralds and VS diamonds -- took over a month to complete. We're told Diggs loved the finished product more than an espresso macchiato (and who doesn't love those?).

Al -- who works with huge stars like Jarvis Landry and Terrance Williams (to name a few) -- was tight-lipped on how much Diggs spent on the chain ... but our sources estimate it to be around $15k.

Oh, and we're also told one of the reasons Stefon got the piece was because, like Starbucks, he's "open all day."

Nicki Minaj thinks Cardi B took a giant L in their war that almost erupted in hand-to-hand combat, because Nicki's business empire has gotten even bigger, her radio show has shot to #1 and all Cardi got was a lump on the head.

Sources connected to Nicki tell us the MC is ecstatic Cardi went nuclear at Friday night's Harper's Bazaar Fashion Show.

Nicki's podcast, "Queen Radio," was trending at the top of Twitter Monday and the show has been sitting pretty at #1 on Apple Music ... all the result of the publicity Nicki's getting off the fight. Sources say her listeners quadrupled last week from the week prior.

Not just that, but we're told Nicki believes her strong debut numbers for her new music video for "Barbie Dreams" is partially due to Cardi's antics. The video's already got over 5 million views after just one day of being released.

There's also this ... apparently, Nicki's been getting blown up a lot more for appearance requests and concert bookings in the last few days.

One last parting shot ... we're told Nicki believes Cardi's the one who's been made to look like a laughingstock after the shoe-throwing incident, especially after she walked away with a fat knot above her eye. She's been kinda getting the meme treatment ... no arguing that.

Besides, sources say Nicki feels like her friends in hip-hop and celebs in general are siding with her and praising how she handled the situation. Cardi, of course, feels differently.

We got Common in NYC Tuesday, who has a slightly different take ... he says he's got nothing but respect for both women and believes they'll resolve it all peacefully.

Tekashi69's gonna be flossing, but we ain't talking jewelry ... it's a new grin.

The rapper hit up renowned Colombian dentist Dr. Mario Montoya in Cali, Colombia for a 5-hour veneers procedure Tuesday. He walked out with a brand spankin' new smile (not that Tekashi's ever been shy about mugging for cameras).

The porcelain veneers are typically used to cover up discoloration or chipped teeth. In other words ... quick path to a near-flawless smile. We're told 6ix9ine dropped upwards of $12k for the procedure which included 12 top teeth and 12 more on the bottom.

A young actress playing a young version of "Dora the Explorer" could make less than $10,000 for her role in the upcoming live-action movie -- the question now ... is the studio swiping her of due dough?

According to Madelyn Miranda's minors contract -- obtained by TMZ -- the 9-year-old will receive $8,420 for a guaranteed week's worth of filming. She'll get around $3,500 a week if she films anything beyond that. Production starts Wednesday.

Considering her parts will probably only come up in flashbacks in the film -- Isabela Moner is playing a fully grown Dora as the main character -- we imagine she'll be collecting the bare minimum here.

There are a couple more perks though -- Madelyn will also get put up in a swanky hotel while on the job, and be given a daily allowance of $65. PLUS, she gets to fly business class during production. SCORE!!! ... maybe? The kid's only 9, so maybe she'll appreciate the relatively modest haul compared to some of her child star contemporaries ... who usually go on to make boatloads more for a sequel. Baby steps, we suppose.

Now, ya gotta wonder if Boots, Backpack and The Map are getting as good of a deal here.

The 3 little bears got nothing on the billionaire behind Oakley sunglasses ... 'cause he says he found a naked man lounging in his bed hot tub, and things got even weirder when Paris Jackson got dragged into it.

James Jannard, who's worth about $3 billion, didn't actually find the naked guy -- he's got people for that -- and, according to docs, Jannard's peeps have found the same perpetrator lurking 3 times on the property of his Beverly Hills mansion.

Jannard says the first time his housekeeper found Terry Purifoy having a naked soak in the spa -- and another time Purifoy broke in and really made himself at home. Cops found him on a couch watching TV and drinking beers.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Jannard says Purifoy broke in through a rear window to the home. He adds ... Purifoy seems to think he's breaking into Paris Jackson's home, and claims he has the right to be there.

Not that it would really matter, but Paris doesn't live anywhere near Jannard's crib.

It was just a matter of time, but Conor McGregor has finally been sued by a UFC fighter for that April bus attack at Barclay's Center where he threw a steel dolly through a window, injuring several people.

The man behind the first lawsuit is Michael Chiesa -- who was scheduled to fight Anthony Pettis at UFC 223 but was forced to pull out due to the injuries he received in the bus attack.

As we previously reported, Chiesa was on the bus with several fighters and UFC staffers when Conor and his gang of hooligans went berserk. Chiesa suffered cuts to his body and face.

According to the lawsuit filed in state court in New York, Chiesa says he also suffered "severe emotional distress, mental trauma and/or bodily harm."

Chiesa is suing McGregor for assault, battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

He's also going after the Barclay's Center for negligence, claiming they failed "to engage in proper security measures to protect the plaintiff and other patrons."

Chiesa doesn't specify how much he's going after in the suit -- but he's clearly looking for a big number because part of the damages he's seeking are the paychecks he lost due to missing that massive UFC event.

Conor was arrested after the incident and charged with felony criminal mischief and 3 counts of misdemeanor assault. However, he later struck a plea deal with prosecutors in which he pled guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct and the other counts (including the felony) were dropped.

Conor issued a statement thanking the D.A. for "allowing me to move forward."

There were other fighters injured in the attack including Rose Namajunas who has also told the media she was emotionally scarred. She hasn't sued yet, but that's only a matter of time.

Foxy Brown took thousands of dollars to perform at an event, showed up hours late, grabbed a check out of the organizer's hand and skipped out ... so claims a furious promoter who is now on the verge of suing.

Foxy agreed to perform 2 songs at the LaQuan Smith party Sunday night during New York Fashion Week. In return, she was going to pull in $10k ... $5k in advance and the balance at the party.

We're told the party came and went ... with Foxy nowhere in sight. We're told at 2:30 AM, when there were only a handful of stragglers left, she showed, grabbed the $5k check out of the organizer's hand and booked it for the door. Our sources say Foxy didn't sing a single note.

The people who threw the shindig are furious and want to give Foxy an ultimatum ... return the money, or we'll see you in court.

We tried multiple times to reach Foxy, but were unsuccessful.

The car that got flipped in that raging Kentucky victory celebration over Florida this weekend DID NOT belong to a UK student ... and now the mother of the kid it belongs to is SUPER FREAKING PISSED OFF!!

Kentucky ended a 31-year drought beating Florida 27-16, prompting a crazy celebration/riot in Lexington where Matt O'Hara -- a 19-year-old who was visiting friends who attend UK -- had his car flipped over.

Matt's mom, Amy, was none too pleased about the car carnage ... and scrambled to make a GoFundMe page to get her kid a new whip ... and to lambaste the rowdy Wildcats responsible.

"When UK won, the students went nuts and started destroying my son's car. They ripped the doors off, shattered every window and then flipped over, totally destroying it."

Amy then asked why "young people think it is okay to destroy other people's property?" She ended her thoughts with the hashtag, #AngryMom.

As of right now, the GoFundMe page has raised roughly $2,300 of it's $5,000 goal ... but the comments section of the page is HILARIOUS ... with multiple UK fans blaming Matt for parking there, and Amy for not having full coverage on her son's car.

Gun-toting thugs invaded Post Malone's home -- or so they thought -- attacking one person while shouting for the rapper, but the problem is ... Post doesn't live there anymore.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... 3 male suspects smashed a front window a little after midnight on September 1 and entered the San Fernando Valley house. We're told a resident living there was pistol whipped.

We're told one of the 3 men yelled, "Where's Post Malone?!" ... before stealing a bunch of cash, jewelry and cell phones ... about $20k worth. The barking out of Post's name makes it clear they were targeting him, but it's been months since he lived there.

We're told the people living there now have no connection to Post.

And, get this ... cops are trying to determine if the hit is tied to another celebrity home invasion just hours later. TMZ broke the story ... suspects stole a safe from a home where Rae Sremmurd was staying.

Both home invasions came after a busy couple weeks for thieves in the same area. Wiz Khalifa, Bella Thorne, Christina Milian, Yasiel Puig and John Mayer have all been victims of burglaries or attempted burglaries.

Swaggy Wolfdog blessed his owner with a brand new Rolls-Royce … but the pup should’ve been behind the wheel, ‘cause boneheaded humans already messed up his rims!!!

We got the husky and his owner, Swagr Man, showing off the $400,000 ride … and it’s all fun and games until the crew tries to drive off … that’s when the luxury car hits a parking space divider and dings the chromed out rims.

Lucky for Swaggy, he was in the back seat unharmed.

7:25 PM PT -- Les Moonves has issued a statement in the wake of his ouster from CBS, saying in part ... "Untrue allegations from decades ago are now being made against me that are not consistent with who I am. Effective immediately I will no longer be Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CBS. I am deeply saddened to be leaving the company. I wish nothing but the best for the organization, the newly comprised board of directors and all of its employees."

4:30 PM PT -- It's just been announced Moonves is out at CBS, and the network is implementing a big shakeup on its board of directors through a company-wide settlement. Interestingly, CBS says $20 million will be donated on Moonves' and the network's behalf to an org that supports #MeToo, which is set to be made immediately. The cash will come out of any severance benefits owed to Moonves following a pending investigation into his alleged misconduct. The company also notes that Moonves will not be getting any type of severance package at this point, but may receive further payment once its investigation is wrapped and after a final evaluation from the Board.

CBS's longtime CEO, Les Moonves, is reportedly resigning from his position as head of the network after multiple allegations of sexual misconduct.

Citing sources familiar with the matter, CNN's Brian Stelter reported Sunday that Moonves would be stepping down and that the official announcement would be made either Sunday night or early Monday morning. This comes on the heels of a second New Yorker article by Ronan Farrow where six additional women accused Moonves of sexual misconduct.

The allegations range from Moonves allegedly forcing oral sex on certain women, exposing himself without permission to others ... and allegedly using physical violence or intimidation against them.

He'd already been accused of sexual misconduct from 6 separate women earlier this summer -- including allegations of sexual assault from the 1980s ... for which he will not face criminal charges. Ronan wrote that earlier piece as well.

Moonves has worked at CBS since 1995, where he first served as president of CBS Entertainment. He served as CEO of CBS Television from '98 to 2003, and was eventually bumped up to chairman and CEO of the entire company in 2003. He's responsible for greenlighting series like 'CSI,' 'Without a Trace,' 'NCIS,' 'Survivor,' 'Cold Case' and many, many other hit shows.

Reports have recently said that Moonves and the CBS board were negotiating an exit package for him somewhere in the ball park of $100 million. Stelter says exit talks have been finalized, but did not report on any specific figure.

Post Malone has jumped back on the horse -- in this case the Rolls -- just a day after his other Rolls got T-boned.

Post chowed down at Mastro's Saturday in Bev Hills and showed off his bigger and better whip -- a $420k Phantom that resembles a WWII tank.

Post decided to upgrade after a Kia tore into his $320k Wraith Saturday night in the San Fernando Valley, severely damaging it.

Post had more to say about the tragic death of his buddy, Mac Miller. TMZ broke the story ... Mac died of a drug OD Friday. Post was supposed to do an album with Mac and his death really tore him up.

On another subject -- the epic shoe-down between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj Friday night at a NYC Fashion Week party -- Post is strictly Switzerland.

Serena Williams won't just leave the US Open with a loss in the Championship ... she'll leave a little lighter in the wallet too.

Williams will be fined $17,000 for 3 separate code violations during the tennis tournament's final.

-$4,000 for a coaching violation.

-$3,000 for smashing her racquet.

-$10,000 for verbal abuse towards the umpire.

As we reported ... Serena was penalized several times during Saturday's match against Naomi Osaka.

Williams approached the umpire and heavily disputed the violation, saying she'd rather lose than cheat. Williams' coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, did admit to coaching after the match, but said he didn't think Serena was paying attention to him.

Osaka received her trophy to a chorus of boos from the crowd ... and Williams was obviously upset during the press conference after the match ... saying she felt that she was only penalized because she was a woman.

Rich the Kid has apparently decided New York City's economy needs a shot in the arm, because dude boarded a plane bound for the Big Apple with $100k cash!!!

We got Rich Sunday at 5:30 AM at LAX and he flaunted his stacks for TMZ. Rich is on his way to New York Fashion Week ... he was mum on what he's gonna do with the stash.

And, check this out ... we did a little digging, and there's no limit to how much cash you can carry on a plane, but TSA can ask questions to make sure you're not up to no good.

Fact is ... the cash pales in comparison to the rapper's watch, which he says is worth $120k.

And, speaking of Rich showing off his riches, he might want to think about roaming the airport with all that loot, looking for snacks without his bodyguard anywhere in sight. He was robbed at gunpoint back in June by several guys who broke into his apartment.

Rich and his GF, Tori Brixx, were injured -- she was pistol whipped -- and both ended up in the hospital.
