Flying commercial is so Super Bowl 56 -- if you want to travel to Arizona for Sunday's big game in style, there's an absolutely incredible vacay package that comes with PJs, meet and greets with Shaquille O'Neal and Rob Gronkowski, and unlimited booze -- and it'll only cost you a MILLION DOLLARS!
It's all part of an extravagant SB package put together by Medium Rare, aptly named the "Over the Top Package" ... and it costs a pretty penny.
So, what do you actually get for a million freakin' bucks?
-Access to a private jet -- to and from Arizona -- for you and 11 buddies!
-Meet and greet with Shaq, Gronk and Guy Fieri ... as well as a private deck at all four events, including SI The Party with Machine Gun Kelly and The Chainsmokers.
-Unlimited vodka and champagne
-Security detail
-Fleet of SUVs
-VIP bathroom (this may be the best perk)
-Spa day (recovery after all the vodka and champagne)
Of course, Super Bowl week is as much about the events as it is the football game on Sunday afternoon ... and imagine how much you can flex on Instagram.
All it costs is $1,000,000.
If a milli is too rich for your blood, there's a bit of a cheaper package that they're offering. Cheaper, not cheap. It'll still run you $250K, and you'll have a chance to attend Shaq's Fun House, Gronk Beach, Guy's Flavortown party ... and have a catch with Rob himself!

Michael Jackson Estate Would Sell 50% Interest in MJ Catalog for Nearly a Billion ... But Control is Key
-
Exclusive Details
- 1.8K shares
Michael Jackson's music may very well have a new co-owner if a mega deal is negotiated with Sony worth nearly a billion dollars, but there are strings attached ... TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the MJ estate will NEVER sell Michael's historic catalog outright. BUT, we've learned the estate would entertain a 50/50 split, but only if the estate maintains complete management and control.
Our sources say the estate would consider selling a 50% interest for around $900 million, and that would cover recordings, publishing rights, etc.
Here's what we're hearing ... there appears to be talks underway between the estate and Sony. When you think about it, Sony makes a lot of sense ... it's Mike's long-term label.
This is a distinction from other huge catalog sales that have gone down -- including from guys like Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Justin Bieber and more. Those deals, didn't even come close to what's potentially at play for Michael's stuff ... and they also relinquished virtually all say over how the work can be used by their new corporate owners.
Springsteen's catalog went for $500 million, and Justin Bieber's went for $200 mil ... again, that for total ownership.
If these MJ talks manifest, it would easily be the biggest blockbuster sale ever -- which speaks to just how popular and in demand Michael continues to be to this day.
There's a lot of MJ news coming out right now -- in addition to this industry-setting power play in the works ... there's a biopic in the works, for which the estate is deeply involved.

Gunna Rapper Threatens Lawsuit ... Return $250K Fee or Else, 'Snitch!!!'
Gunna's being told to refund the $250K he allegedly got for a verse recorded prior to the YSL Rico case ... all because his collaborator believes Gunna snitched on Young Thug to get out of jail.
Florida-based rapper Bandman Kevo says he paid Gunna to get on a song they did together many months ago, but his incarceration delayed the rollout.
Now that Gunna is free, Kevo says he's ashamed of the collab and it's not happening.
As a result, he's now demanding Gunna return the 6-figure check to sender -- and if he doesn't, Kevo says he'll sue.
The song's titled "Alone" and they even shot a video with YSL rapper Lil Duke -- who was also arrested, and took the same Alford plea as Gunna -- so, Kevo's entire record is kaput as far as he's concerned.
Kevo's reimbursement demand is a total 180° from his thoughts shared in an interview a little over a month ago, when he gave Gunna the benefit of the doubt, assuming the "Pushin' P" rapper had an elaborate legal scheme that did not involve snitching.
Something's changed, because now he thinks he's throwing good money at a bad dude. Good luck getting it back without suing, though. And, even then ... seems like a tough case to win.

Gabby Petito Parents Release Selfie ... Bruised Face Pre-Traffic Stop
Gabby Petito's family just released a photo that they say backs their wrongful death suit -- namely, what they claim is an alarming selfie taken minutes before cops stopped her -- and proof officers should've taken action.
Attorneys for Gabby's parents -- who filed suit against the Moab Police Dept. in Utah for not intervening to protect their daughter before she was killed by her boyfriend, Brian Laundrie -- distributed a picture they claim was taken on her phone minutes before she and Brian encountered MPD officers on the road ... following a call from a concerned citizen.
8/12/21
The photo appears to show Gabby with a bruised eye and red marks on her face ... something that didn't look nearly as visible in body cam footage taken during the actual traffic stop.
Interestingly, the cop talking to Gabby did point out something on her face ... asking if she'd been hit. He also pointed out what he seemed to think was an injury on her shoulder.
The Petito family says a timestamp from Gabby's selfie shows it was taken at 4:37 PM on August 12. Moab PD's body cam footage started rolling shortly after at around 4:53 PM.
Gabby's parents feel this shows she was obviously injured at the hands of Brian ... and that law enforcement had a duty to step in and shield her. As we now know, the two officers on the scene made a decision not to arrest anyone at the time ... something the Petitos feel warrants at least $50 million in damages.
Of course, Brian Laundrie later confessed to killing his girlfriend in a notebook found after he took his own life. Their disappearance sparked a nationwide search and subsequent investigation that captured the country's interest for months.

Flo Rida just landed a sweet $80 million settlement in his lawsuit against Celsius energy drink, and the "My House" rapper says that means he's about to turn up his charitable efforts in a big way!!!
TMZ Hip Hop caught Flo Monday at LAX, fresh off his Grammy weekend where he kept an extra big grin on account of winning his copyright lawsuit against the beverage co. in January.
Flo tells us his musical success allowed for retirement several years ago, but this new influx of cash will enable more philanthropic endeavors ... such as his Big Dreams For Kids charity that powers his own Florida Youth Football league.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Flo says his league is over 10,000 players strong, and he flew several of them out to Cali to train with Snoop Dogg, and his famed football league from the Netflix series.
He's optimistic the players will grow up to be doctors, lawyers or even professional athletes.
In terms of Celsius, Flo says he's still a co-owner, and has no hard feelings in the aftermath of the lawsuit.
Flo maintains his brand association gave Celsius the "opportunity of a lifetime" ... and now he has $80M in his account to prove it!!!

Lil Wayne's former dream home in one of Miami's most exclusive neighborhoods is officially off the market, meaning Weezy's officially pulling outta South Florida ... TMZ Hip Hop has learned.
The YMCMB boss listed his lavish half-acre property back in September, asking $29.5 million ... and then discounted it, slightly, at a mere $28 mil. That seemed to do the trick.
Our real estate sources tell us Wayne accepted a buyer's offer on February 3, and although the sale's still pending ... it's close to getting finalized. Cyril Matz of Douglas Elliman is repping for Tunechi.
Wayne had the 7-bedroom, 11-bathroom castle built for $16.8 million in 2017 and laced it with all sorts of amenities -- including an open-air cabana, outdoor kitchen and a reflecting pool. Basically, the perfect Miami party pad ... if you're into that sorta thing.
Don't worry, the legendary rap star won't have to couch surf at friends' houses. He's currently shacked up nicely in a $15.4M Hidden Hills mansion in Kylie Jenner's neck of the woods.

Dan Snyder Lists Maryland Home For $49 Mil ... Amid Impending Sale Of Commanders
Dan Snyder's football team is up for sale -- and now, so is his massive pad in Maryland ... TMZ Sports has confirmed he's listing his huge D.C.-area property on Monday.
Michael Rankin of TTR Sotheby's International Realty tells us the Potomac home will officially go on sale with a price tag of $49 MILLION. It'd be, according to multiple reports, the largest sale of a property ever in the area if it gets the asking price.
The place is amazing ... it features 30,000 square feet, five bedrooms and 13.5 bathrooms. It's also got a basketball court, a theatre, a wine cellar, a library, a spa, and a gym ... and sits just feet away from a river.

The Washington Business Journal reports Snyder originally bought the place in 2000 -- and expanded on it in the ensuing years. According to the outlet, though, he hasn't lived in the home for a while.
The timing of the listing is obviously interesting -- Snyder announced back in November he was exploring a sale of his beloved Commanders team as well ... and both Jeff Bezos and Jay-Z had expressed big interest in putting in a bid for the franchise.
It's been reported Snyder could fetch over $7 BILLION for the team, which he's owned since 1999. Most NFL insiders expect a deal to be consummated sooner rather than later.

Tom Brady not only won't be working the Super Bowl for FOX on February 12, but he won't be behind a mic next season, either ... the G.O.A.T. said Monday he's not beginning his broadcasting career until 2024.
The former Buccaneers signal-caller revealed his plan is to take all of 2023 off during a chat with Colin Cowherd on "The Herd" -- saying he won't begin calling games for FOX until the fall of '24.
Brady said he's looking to use the downtime to get good at the gig before officially stepping into the booth full-time.
"One thing about my career, whether that was when I was drafted by the Patriots or signed in free agency with the Bucs, I wanted to be fully committed," Brady explained. "I never wanted to let people down -- I think my biggest motivator was that."
"So, even in the future I want to be great at what I do and that always takes some time and strategizing and learning and growing and evolving."
Brady said in addition to leaning on others in the broadcasting world -- he's also going to be spending '23 "catching up on other parts of my life that need some time and energy."
The future Hall of Famer initially inked a 10-year, $375 million deal with Fox in May 2022 ... with the expectation that he'd begin calling games once his football career wrapped.
Clearly, though, Brady is looking for a break from everything for the next 18 or so months ... and he said Monday FOX officials were cool with it all.
In the meantime, former NFL star Greg Olsen will continue to be FOX's lead color commentator. He's slated to call the Eagles vs. Chiefs game on Sunday with play-by-play man Kevin Burkhardt.
Tom Brady on @TheHerd asked if there’s a 1% chance he’ll return: “It’s certainly the right time (to retire).” #Patriots #Buccaneers pic.twitter.com/Ba5vHkn95i

By the way, Brady was also asked Monday if there was even a sliver of a chance that he'd unretire like he did in 2022 ... and the QB said no, calling it "certainly the right time" to hang up his spikes.

Exclusive

Beyonce's history-making Grammy night was enough to sell Symba on paying for her Renaissance Tour, even if the ticket prices may warrant a small bank loan!!!
TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the Atlantic Records rapper just as the 65th Grammy Awards let out and he says he was pretty floored by the 50th-anniversary hip hop tribute ... as well as DJ Khaled's "God Did" performance that put Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne and his pal Fridayy all on the same set.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
But Symba says the biggest highlight was seeing Beyoncé get her record-setting 32nd Grammy -- the most of all-time and says the moment was culturally significant as a whole.
He thinks Beyoncé is now the greatest entertainer of all-time ... even surpassing the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson's glory days.
We're less than 24 hours out from the unveiling of Beyoncé's Renaissance Tour ticket sale to the general public and fans have been anticipating exorbitant prices, but Symba says it doesn't matter.
Beyoncé’s RENAISSANCE World Tour tickets prices will range from $75 to $200 in North America, and €50 to €204 in Europe.

VIP tickets will go up to $2800/€2500, and include front row tickets, merchandise and more. #RENAISSANCEWorldTour pic.twitter.com/NGvFagJqPH
Symba says if there was ever an artist deserving of the support, it's Beyoncé ... and he thinks fans need to figure out a way to pinch their pennies together to make any show they can.
He also sides with Drake's beef with Spotify and the fight to pay artists and songwriters more royalties for their streams ... which would help pay for some Beyoncé tickets!!! Although, we think Champagne Papi could already swing the cost.

Tom Brady Posts Underwear Selfie ... Check Out My Retirement Bod!!!
Tom Brady clearly ain't letting himself go in retirement ... the former quarterback just shared a selfie in nothing but his undies -- and he looks GOOOOOOOD!!!!
TB12 posted the pic early Monday morning on his Twitter page ... paying off a bet he made with his clothing company way back in June.
At the time, he said he'd recreate models wearing his Brady brand underwear if the tweet got 40,000 likes. When the co. reminded him of it all Monday, he paid it off in a big way ... and we're all grateful for it.
40k likes and I’ll recreate these photos. Unrelated but can you guys send me some more of the socks @bradybrand 🤝 🤝 https://t.co/ANFE3Ez7Cd

Tom showed off some biceps, some pecs, and a set of abs -- all while his hand was conveniently placed to cover up his junk.
He mentioned Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski while revealing the pic -- asking the two, who have posed often in their undies for various brands in their lifetimes, if he was doing it right.
Of course, Tom's bod shouldn't exactly surprise anybody -- while he's a retired man now, it's only been a couple weeks since he left football.
By the way, if you want to recreate Brady's smoldering look -- he shared a link to the version of undies he was rockin'. They'll only set ya back $20!

"Pez Outlaw," Steve Glew is thrilled his incredible story is hitting the mainstream thanks to a new Netflix documentary ... but he's got his eyes on bigger things, and already has a big-name celeb he wants to see play him on TV.
Steve tells TMZ ... he's been waiting 25 years for his story to be made into a documentary, and he's in preliminary talks to create a narrative TV show about his life ... and he wants to cast Jack Black as himself.
Netflix is getting rave reviews for Bryan & Amy Storkel's doc on Steve, "The Pez Outlaw," the story of how he made a ton of money selling rare Pez dispensers back in the day.
While Steve doesn't want to jeopardize his potential TV series deal ... our sources tell us Steve's in talks with CBS Studios and Andy Samberg's production company, Party Over Here.
Steve tells us why Jack would be the perfect actor to play him ... explaining he's the right guy to capture all of Steve's idiosyncrasies and bring him to life.
The Pez story is pretty wild ... Steve went to Europe in the '90s and smuggled back tons of rare Pez dispensers to sell to American collectors ... with some folks shelling out as much as $11,000 for a single dispenser.
Steve says he thinks the Netflix doc will inspire more folks to get into collecting Pez ... and he tells us why he warned current collectors to buy whatever they have their eyes on ASAP, before the documentary came out.
No word if Jack's a big Pez fan ... but Steve tells us what happened to most of his personal collection.

Joe Exotic I Left Everything To Fiancé In New Will ... Orders DNR from Prison

Exclusive

Joe Exotic isn't sure how much time he has left on this Earth, so he signed a new will -- leaving everything to his latest fiancé ... while also ordering first responders not to revive him if things go south.
In a prison-recorded phone call obtained by TMZ, Joe lays out what's what if he's to pass away ... saying his entire estate is going to Seth Posey, who he met over the internet ... and to whom he's currently engaged. If Seth dies, it all goes to the guy's son, Cameron.
Joe makes a point to say he doesn't want anybody else getting their grubby paws on any of his assets or valuables -- including Jeff Lowe, his family members or anyone else. Previously, he'd nixed his ex-husband, Dillon Passage. So, at this point, it's all going to Seth.
He also mentions a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order he's put in his will in the off chance that he goes into cardiac arrest or anything that might require life-saving measures. JE sounds frustrated with the fact that he's been in prison for this long ... and says "he's done."
Joe further tells TMZ ... "I am sick of people standing in line waiting to collect my stuff," which is why he's taking this preemptive measure. Rather than leave things for what he considers vultures, who he says are standing by to collect, Joe wants this cut and dried.
On top of this, the 'Tiger King' has very specific funeral plans ... listen for yourself.
As we first told you ... Joe and Seth reunited in June after first meeting in 2021, when Seth won Joe's online 'Bachelor King' competition to be Joe's new boyfriend. They ultimately grew apart, and then Joe was planning to marry his fellow inmate, John Graham ... but when Graham got out of prison, Joe ended up getting back with Seth. Yeah, Joe's got a crazy love life.
Anyways, 59-year-old Joe's still got around 20 years left on his prison sentence for his murder-for-hire conviction, and he tells us he believes the feds hope he dies in prison "so they don't have to admit they were wrong."
Naturally, it wouldn't be a Joe Exotic story without a shot at his nemesis, Carole Baskin ... Joe tells us Carole, Jeff Lowe and James Garretson "can all go to hell."

Beyoncé fans are begging to score tickets for her upcoming tour ... making public pleas for $$$!!!
The BeyHive is buzzing around the crowdfunding website, GoFundMe, to ask family, friends and other Bey diehards to throw them some bread to secure a ticket for her "Renaissance" tour.
Problem is, even if they raise the money, that doesn't mean they're guaranteed a ticket ... just ask Swifties about the presale of Taylor Swift's "Eras" tour!
That's not stopping fans from trying, and some of their pleas are pretty funny. One fan writes, "This is the only life experience I care about living before I die. I will get those front row tickets either way but this way is safer than selling my kidney on the black market."
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Another fan says, "Listen…I would love your financial support in sending me to Beyoncé World Tour 2023. I haven’t missed a Beyoncé concert yet, but I got 'bills, bills, bills.'"
Some fans have managed to raise a few hundred bucks ... while others have raised next to nothing.
Pre-sale in the UK has begun and fans say the supply nowhere meets the demand.
First the O2 Priority app was down. Now I've waited in an O2 Priority queue on @Ticketmaster website behind 200,000 people and it still won't let me access Beyoncé tickets. Waste of time.
