Tyrese I Need a New Judge for My Divorce ... First One Was Outta Line!!!

Published | Updated

Tyrese is fuming over his divorce case -- where he was ordered to keep paying $10k/month in child support -- and wants a new judge to weigh in, claiming the old robe had it out for him.

The actor filed new legal docs this week, obtained by TMZ, that spell out the reasons that he wants a fresh set of his eyes on this case -- with the main one being that Judge Farmer, who was presiding over the divorce, was clearly biased against Tyrese.

There are a few examples laid out in his filing ... Tyrese says during a pretrial meeting in Judge Farmer's chambers, hizzoner apparently told Tyrese and his ex, Samantha Lee Gibson, that he thought $10,690 per month in child support was appropriate based on the financial evidence and that he didn't care if Gibson was a "greedy, gold-digging bitch."

PISSING OFF THE JUDGE!!!

Essentially, Tyrese is claiming this judge already made up his mind on how things should go even before hearing arguments and testimony in court.

Not just that -- but Tyrese alleges the judge's favor was shown early and often during the actual trial ... including belittling admonishments and cutting off Tyrese in the middle of his answers that were caught on video, which Tyrese says were totally outrageous. Tyrese claims his lawyer "definitely felt bullied by Judge Farmer" during the case.

Bottom line ... Tyrese says he deserves a new judge on the case, as he feels he was doomed from the start. Last thing -- we're told Tyrese has hired Ben Crump as an add-on to the legal team.

BKFC's Tai Emery My Only Fans Page Exploded By 6,150% ... After I Flashed My Boobs

Published | Updated

Tai Emery proved she belongs as a pro fighter, but she likely won't have to do it for money, 'cause the new BKFC star tells TMZ Sports her OnlyFans page EXPLODED after she flashed her boobs from the ring!

And, we're not talking doubling or tripling subscribers ... Emery's OF page saw a 62-fold increase in fans paying to access her content -- or a 6,150% increase.

If you're doing the math ... T.E. charges $10 a month to access her content. Last week she was bringing in about $400 ... and it's money she's relied upon to survive. Now, Tai's going to be raking in around $25K a month ... or $300K per year.

FLASHY PERFORMANCE

"Holy moly," Tai said, "My OnlyFans went maybe 40 to maybe [2,500], or something like that."

If you missed it, in her BKFC debut, Emery, a former LFL football player, knocked out opponent Rung-Arun Khunchai with an uppercut and hook combo that sent her crashing to the canvas. As the ref called an end to the fight, Tai jumped on the ropes, pulled down her sports bra, and flashed her breasts as the Bangkok crowd cheered, a bit stunned.

But, did the R-rated celebration get Tai in any hot water with BKFC honchos or athletic commission officials?

Nope!

"I have been completely enabled to continue to be myself, and so I shall."

We asked if fans should expect another show after her future fights ... and let's just say Emery's well on her way to being a big draw.

"For sure. I'm trying to get it to a point where maybe there's like gonna be a reflection of a sea of t**ties just looking back at me in like this army of salute, from men to women."

After the quick night at the office, Tai is already plotting her return to the ring.

Ty Cobb Dentures Hit Auction Block ... Top & Bottom False teeth

Published | Updated

The Ty Cobb T206 is the "holy grail" for collectors, but for as much as the card is worth (up to millions), about 50 reportedly exist ... now, if you're looking for something truly unique, there's another piece of memorabilia that recently hit the block --

Cobb's dentures ... his actual false teeth.

SCP Auctions currently has Cobb's chompers -- top and bottom -- on the block, along with the "original plaster denture holder and brass opening device."

After Cobb's death in 1961, the teeth were preserved. Ty's biographer, Al Stump, held the teeth for years before unloading them at Sotheby's in 1999 ... to the current consignor, who held the dentures for over 22 years.

Of course, Cobb was one of baseball's first stars ... and a real problem at the plate.

In 1909 he won the Triple Crown, the A.L. MVP in 1911, and was a 12x batting champion. Cobb averaged .366 and had 4,191 hits over his 24-season career.

Cobb was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936.

Speaking of Cooperstown, in June 2001, the teeth went on display at The Hall ... where fans were able to view the one-of-a-kind item.

The auction, which ends Friday, already has a nearly $10K bid (there have been 7 total bids).

Talk about a conversation piece ... good luck!

Johnny Depp's Attorney Camille Vasquez's New Celeb Client ... 'Yellowstone' Actress

Published | Updated
UPDATE

10:36 AM PT -- 9/7 -- The hearing just wrapped -- only lasting a couple minutes -- Steve and Camille were officially subbed in as attorneys and a preliminary hearing was set for November 1. Kilcher was not present.

UPDATE
UPDATE

We spoke with Steve and Camille who told us a little about the case ... and Camille shared how her life has changed since the Depp case.

Johnny Depp's attorney, Camille Vasquez, has another star she's representing in court -- though the case has nothing to do with Amber Heard -- or a sour relationship, for that matter.

Camille and attorney Steve Cook from Brown Rudnick LLP are set to rep actress Q'orianka Kilcher, who's made a name for herself on the hit show "Yellowstone."

Kilcher was recently charged with worker's compensation insurance fraud by the State of California and has hired Camille and Steve to help her fight. We're told both attorneys will appear before a judge on her behalf Wednesday in Los Angeles.

As we reported -- Kilcher was hit with two counts of workers' comp insurance fraud earlier this year after an investigation by the California Dept. of Insurance. Officials say they found evidence that she'd improperly collected over $90,000 in disability benefits.

CDOI claims she was raking in thousands over the course of 2 years, stemming from a neck injury she reported suffering back in 2018 while filming "Dora and the Lost City of Gold" ... but officials claim she continued collecting disability benefits even while filming "Yellowstone" episodes in 2019.

A source close to Kilcher tells us she didn't do anything wrong, and the accident left her really messed up, leaving her 10% disabled for the rest of her life.

This collection, CDOI claims, continued until 2021 ... and now, she's up against felony charges. Camille and co. say their client is innocent and plan to vigorously defend Kilcher.

Camille and Steve tell us ... "We are determined to defend Ms. Kilcher in this important case which examines the inherent flaws in the disability compensation system. Ms. Kilcher is a well-respected and pioneering actress in Hollywood and we intend to clear her name."

Considering the success Brown Rudnick recently had with JD, you gotta figure Kilcher is gonna get the very best defense possible.

'RHOBH' Star Diana Jenkins Donates $100k To Lion Air Flight Victims' Families

Published | Updated

Diana Jenkins is contributing a boatload of cash to a good cause -- one that actually hits home for her costar, Erika Jayne.

The 'Real Housewives' star, who's on her first season of 'Beverly Hills,' announced Wednesday she'd donated $100,000 to immediate family members of those who perished on the 2018 Lion Air 610 flight that went down in the Java Sea ... killing all 189 people onboard.

DJ is doing this through her new charity, The Sunela Foundation, which is partnering with nonprofit GVNG.org to raise funds for those in need around the world.

As for why she's doing this good deed ... she says, "I was not aware of this tragedy until it became a topic of conversation on 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.'"

She adds, "I feel so much sympathy for the widows and orphans left behind. I know firsthand the pain and suffering that accompanies the loss of a family member, having lost my brother in the closing days of the Bosnian War. I want to do what I can to support those people who suffered so much."

Here's why this is a big deal -- Erika and her estranged husband, Tom Girardi, were sued last year by 4 of the victims' families, claiming they'd misappropriated funds from a settlement that Tom's law firm had scored for them. A judge reportedly entered a $2 million judgment against the defendants.

Since filing for divorce, Erika has repeatedly said she was ignorant of how Tom was handling his business/their wealth.

While it might seem like a shot, Diana notes ... this has nothing to do with what Erika/Tom are going through.

Akademiks I Was Gonna Sign Fivio Foreign!!! Ma$e Hooked Him First for $1 Mil

Published | Updated

Fivio Foreign and Ma$e's contractual disputes are providing interesting chatter from both parties, but Akademiks says the whole clash wouldn't be happening ... if he had stretched his own bank account and struck a huge deal.

While talking about the ongoing beef with VladTV, Akademiks said he has a deal with a label in order to sign artists, and he once had his sights set on Fivio.

During summer 2019, Fivio's breakout single "Big Drip" made him a hot commodity on the New York drill rap scene and Ak says he talked with his lawyer about potentially reeling in Fivio.

Ak eventually got word that Ma$e and his RichFish label wanted no less than $1 million dollars to join forces to sign the rapper -- and while he backed off, Columbia Records jumped in with $1.5 mil to sweeten the deal.

Akademiks says that was too rich for his blood, but he believes it was really Ma$e's celebrity that ultimately prompted Fivio to sign -- a signing that's now a major point of contention for the drill rapper.

Per the contract's design, Ma$e is poised to get 50% of Fivio's earnings AKA the standard in a 50/50 deal, which leads to bigger payouts for the Harlem World rapper as Fivio's status grows.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Both Ma$e and Fivio have publicly dissed one another with their various sides of the story, and Ak says Fivio's just about due for a new deal where he could get upward of $5 million.

It sounds like mo money, mo problems for Fivio ... until he signs on a new dotted line.

Lil Meech Off The Hook In Alleged $250K Watch Heist

ICED OUT

"BMF" star Lil Meech is off the hook in his grand theft case over a $250K Richard Mille watch ... we're told it was tossed after the accusers decided they were done pursuing it.

A rep for the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office tells TMZ Hip Hop ... cops conducted an investigation after a few jewelers complained about missing pieces ... but investigators were eventually told the jewelers got their merch back.

That wouldn't automatically end the case if the stuff was initially stolen, but prosecutors decided to drop the case.

Meech's attorney, Howard Srebnick, called the case "a misunderstanding that was amicably resolved."

Meech then took to Instagram to celebrate ... along with a bold message to his haters.

TMZ popped the lid off the story back in May ... Meech was accused by Miami's Haimov Jewelers of running off with a $250K RM after flipping an $80K Rolex.

With the case behind him, the time is nearing for Meech and the crew to begin filming season 2 of "BMF."

Production sources told TMZ Hip Hop Meech and "Power Book II: Ghost" Michael Rainey Jr. almost came to blows during 50 Cent's Tycoon Weekend.

50 Cent got the download and called for everyone to settle their differences so they can get back to work PRONTO!!!

Britney Spears My Son Jayden's Undermining Me ... Mad Over Money?!?

Published | Updated

Britney Spears is calling out her son Jayden James ... accusing him of undermining her and wondering if he's pissed the gravy train is about to run dry.

Britney went on a long rant Monday on social media, and it was mostly a response to Jayden publicly talking about her challenges as a mom.

090522_britney_spears_1480022 SEPTEMBER 2022
BRITNEY'S ANGRY RESPONSE

She scoffs at Jayden wishing and praying she gets better ... wondering if her son is worried about the fact he's not going to get any more money from her in a couple years once he turns 18.

Britney's also addressing her souring relationship with her sons, who she hasn't seen in months, claiming they ignored her when they hung out in the past and never felt she was a good enough mother if she didn't shower them with gifts.

090522-60-minutes-australia-jayden-kal
CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY

Remember ... 15-year-old Jayden recently did a sit-down interview with Daphne Barak for "60 Minutes Australia" in which he accused his mom of not showing equal love and attention to him and brother Sean Preston, and talking about Britney's mental state.

Britney says Jayden sounds just like Jamie Spears in the interview ... accusing her son of secretly loving to look at her like something is wrong with her, the same thing she says the rest of her family is guilty of.

As for the unequal attention claims ... Britney says Preston would sleep the whole time when she had her sons over, while Jayden would play the piano ... and she claims her boys always left 2 hours early.

Britney ends with this ... she doesn't believe in God anymore because of the way her family and her children treat her.

LeBron James, Drake Sued Over 'Black Ice' Hockey Doc ... I Have Movie Rights, Not You!!!

Published | Updated
UPDATE

2:16 PM PT -- One of the authors of the 'Black Ice' book named in the lawsuit, Darril Fosty, tells TMZ ... he and his brother believe the suit is unwarranted and frivolous and they will officially respond through their legal team.

LeBron James and Drake stole the rights to a movie about a segregated hockey league ... this according to a new lawsuit.

The NBA star and rapper are being sued for $10 million by Billy Hunter, the former head of the NBA players union, who claims he holds the exclusive legal rights to produce any movie about Canada's old Colored Hockey League.

According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Hunter claims LeBron and Drake used their production companies to go behind his back and sign a deal with the authors of a book their "Black Ice" hockey documentary is based on ... icing out Hunter in the process.

Problem is ... Hunter claims he had a deal with the guys who wrote, "Black Ice: The Lost History of the Colored Hockey League of the Maritimes, 1895-1925," where Hunter would hold the exclusive rights to produce a movie.

Hunter says he paid the authors, George and Darril Fosty, a combined $265,000 to lock up the movie rights to the story of a Canadian hockey league for Black players ... but says they worked out a side deal with LeBron and Drake.

In the suit, Hunter claims he confronted the Fosty brothers after hearing about their deal with LeBron and Drake and says the authors claimed the documentary did not violate their agreement with Hunter because a documentary is different than a movie ... a claim Hunter says is "absurd and made in bad faith."

Hunter, who was the head of the NBA players union when LeBron came into the league, is going after LBJ and Drake for a cut of the documentary's profits ... plus $10 million in damages.

A rep for Drake had no comment on the allegations.

OnlyFans Star Courtney Tillia I'm A Millionaire Now!!! Big $witch from My Teaching Days

Published | Updated

Courtney Tillia -- a former teacher turned OnlyFans model -- claims she has hit millionaire status after ditching the classroom to focus on her explicit online content.

Courtney tells TMZ ... she's racked up more than $1 mil between her 3 OnlyFans accounts, in just a little more than 3 years -- and, she has zero regrets about the dramatic career shift.

She has a VIP page, a free page and a merchandise store. No shocker here, but that VIP page featuring nude photos and videos brings in the lion's share of her income ... nearly $750K. The "free" page also makes money through pay-per-view content.

Mrs. Tillia, as her ex-students probably referred to her, says it would've taken her about 25 years as a special-ed teacher -- even with a master's degree -- to make $1 million, and she says it's changed her life for the better.

Courtney moved her husband and 4 kids to L.A. from Arizona ... and they've been able to enjoy family vacations to Hawaii and Nashville. She's also taken a few solo trips to Colombia and Jamaica.

Additionally, she says she can now use the extra income to donate to homeless shelters around Los Angeles ... an absolutely crucial cause.

She makes it clear to us she isn't worried about what her kids think about her profession.

Instead, she and her husband are focused on teaching their children to be open-minded and not to shame others on what they do for a living.

A HUGE IMPACT

Last year, we talked to Courtney when OF was considering banning porn, and she was concerned about how she'd make a living. Clearly, it all worked out.

THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

A couple of Stephanies from "90 Day Fiancé" don't seem like they're ready to settle down ... because their idea of a date night includes a strip club and a porn star!!!

Stephanie Matto and Stephanie Davison hit up Larry Flynt's Hustler Club Las Vegas for an intimate date, dining at a new rooftop restaurant and spending time in the VIP suite with XXX actress Alexis Monroe.

Matto is known for selling anything, from farts in jars to her boob sweat, so naturally, she found a way to make money at the strip club ... without getting onstage.

This time, Matto auctioned off the chance for someone to hang with her, SD and Alexis in the club's largest VIP suite ... and she says an NBA player dropped $100,000 for the honor.

FUN IN THE BOOTH

Date auctions are becoming Matto's latest hustle ... remember, she auctioned off a virtual candlelight date earlier this summer, which Davison won with a $2,700 bid.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

As you see, the Stephanies dressed to the nines ... wearing plunging satin dresses and high heels, and showing more skin than their porn star third wheel.

The club's exotic dancers could learn a thing or two from Matto ... Stephanie only needed 3.5 hours in the club for her big payday.

Evander Holyfield Gloves From Mike Tyson Ear Bite Fight Hit Auction ... Could Fetch $100K!!!

Published

Evander Holyfield's gloves from his iconic rematch with Mike Tyson -- where "Iron Mike" infamously bit part of his ear off in one of the most memorable sports moments ever -- are hitting the auction block, and could fetch $100K!

Holyfield wore the gloves during his highly-anticipated second fight with Tyson on June 28, 1997 ... when the two squared off at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The red gloves worn by Holyfield -- one of the greatest fighters in boxing history -- were made by Everlast, and have "Holyfield #1" in black marker on each cuff logo.

The folks at Lelands tell us Holyfield's gloves show "light use" -- which makes sense, considering the bout was called after only three rounds, when Mike chomped into Evander's ear.

Remember, Holyfield defeated Tyson via 7-round TKO the first time they fought in November 1996.

During their second fight, Holyfield once again proved to be getting the better of Tyson, which frustrated the legend ... who bit Evander's ear in the third round.

Referee Mills Lane deducted points from Tyson, before ultimately disqualifying him, ending the contest in dramatic fashion.

Tyson has since explained the reason he bit Holyfield's ear ... saying he was upset Evander was "headbutting the s*** out of [him]" and "ringing my f***ing bell."

Some speculated Tyson pulled the stunt as a way to get out of the fight after Holyfield got the better of him in the early rounds.

The fight may have disappointed boxing fans in the moment, but the night has become part of boxing lore ... and that's why the used gloves could rake in 6-figures.

The gloves have already been bid on 5 times ... with a high mark of $12,155. Look for that figure to go up substantially.

Bidding ends later this month. Good luck!!

Rep. Ilhan Omar Student Debt Forgiveness Shouldn't Piss Off Anyone, Really

Published | Updated

President Biden's student debt forgiveness policy has ruffled feathers across the political spectrum -- but Rep. Ilhan Omar says ... turn that frown upside down!

We got the Minnesota congresswoman at Ronald Reagan National Airport and asked what she made about the Debbie Downers who are pissed over JB wiping out millions of dollars in loans for countless Americans ... despite many who've paid their debt fair and square.

082422-joe-biden-kal1 8/25/22
LAYING IT ALL OUT

Watch ... Rep. Omar tells us that those folks simply need to look at this situation with a glass-half-full mentality -- namely, being grateful they could take care of their sitch, and happy others are getting the chance to do the same ... even if it's through a free ride.

The way she puts it -- just because we aren't burdened doesn't mean we shouldn't help those who are. Essentially, it's the greater good argument repackaged with a nice bow.

Of course, there are many who probably won't take that medicine sitting down ... but it doesn't matter anymore. What's done is done, and the President has spoken -- upwards of $10,000 per person is going to be cleared from the books whether the public likes it or not.

082722-ted-cruz-kal
DEADBEAT DUNKIN' DUDES!!!

We know many in conservative circles -- including guys like Sen. Ted Cruz -- aren't happy about this ... but it goes beyond just left and right-wing ideology. Cruz said this could have ramifications come election time -- in favor of Dems -- which concerns him greatly.

Speaking of that, Rep. Omar touches on a Trump campaign in 2024 ... which seems all but certain at this point. She's pretty confident about a blue win in 2 years -- DT or not.

Young Thug To Kanye West Use My Georgia Land For Your Yeezy Stores 100 Acres ... Free Of Charge!!!

Published

Young Thug's prison Wi-Fi seems to be up and running without issue, and the incarcerated rap star is going outta his way to help Kanye West's dream of launching worldwide Yeezy stores.

Ye has been livid on Instagram all week ... waging war with GAP and adidas for swiping his Yeezy designs.

The frustration led Ye to begin plotting to launch a Yeezy brick-and-mortar shop in every state -- starting in Atlanta -- and he furiously began sending sketch ideas to architects Claudio Silvestrin and John Pawson.

Thugger hopped on Instagram on Thursday, from prison, to offer Ye 100 acres Georgia land to use ... free of charge!!!

Clearly excited, Ye began to revel in the news with good friend A$AP Bari ... before hitting up ex-wife Kim Kardashian, in hopes she could work her clemency magic to free the YSL Records leader.

Hopefully Kim can operate at Houdini levels ... Thugga's already been denied bond three times after being named the head of his ongoing Georgia RICO case.

The triple setbacks haven't curbed Thugger's sense of humor, however. Earlier in the week, he hopped on Twitter to randomly ask legendary Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps if he could swim across the ocean ... and got a response!!!

'L&HH's Spice Reality TV Breaks Bones... Masika & Hazel-E Know What They Signed Up For!!!

Published | Updated
090122_spice_kal
COMES WITH THE TERRITORY

There's a war going on within the Zeus Network ... stemming from "Love & Hip Hop" star Masika Kalysha dragging Hazel-E to court over their televised fight.

TMZ broke the story, Masika wants $6 million for injuries sustained from the brawl, as well as sexual battery after claiming the security guard who broke them up touched her butt ... but their fellow "L&HH" alum Spice doesn't seem so convinced.

We caught the dancehall queen in NYC this week promoting her raunchy "Tape Measure" single ... and while Spice admits she hasn't seen this particular scuffle, Spice thinks punches and kicks sorta complement their particular brand of reality TV.

Spice says certain odds and ends are detailed in TV series contracts, although they might not read as explicitly as "user beware ... may get your ass beat!"

As far as the "touchy-feely" security guard, Spice says there's going to be inadvertent contact when it comes to breaking up a fight. Those hands have to land somewhere!!!

We're still waiting to hear back from Zeus ... but this case will probably be solved by the fine print in the contract!!!

Spice is more of a lover than a fighter anyway

Russell Wilson Ciara Shows Hubby Love After $245 M Payday ... 'You're 1 of 1'

Published

Russell Wilson's wife, Ciara, showered her man with love, calling him her "greatest inspiration," after the QB received a massive 9-figure contract extension from the Denver Broncos!!

Ci tweeted, "Baby @DangeRussWilson, I am so proud of you! You’re the most dedicated and hardworking person I know! It’s been so beautiful to see you become a Bronco!"

"So excited for the journey ahead!" she added

Wilson -- who was a part of a blockbuster trade that sent him from the Seahawks to the Broncos -- agreed to a five-year, $245 million extension on Thursday ... which includes $165 million guaranteed, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Russ tweeted Thursday morning before his extension was announced, "ALL THE GLORY TO JESUS!!! #HEisKING."

The couple has fully leaned into being a Bronco. In fact, Ciara teased that Russ got her an adorable puppy as a Mother's Day gift, and fittingly, they named it "Bronco."

The pup joined Russ, Ci, and their three children in a new $25 million home in Englewood, Colorado in April ... which sits on 5.34 acres..

The Wilson's new 20,060 square foot crib has four bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, a nine-car garage, and a large fireplace.

Even before they became local homeowners, the power couple made an immediate impact in the Denver community, visiting patients at the Children's Hospital in Colorado.

It's nothing new for Russ ... who has been one of the most charitable athletes in the world since joining the NFL in 2012 -- whether it be in Seattle or the Mile High city.

Speaking of Seattle ... the Broncos kick off the regular season in the northwest, where they'll take on Wilson's former squad, the Hawks.
