The world is A$AP Rocky’s oyster after being acquitted of assault charges ... and he's using his free time wisely -- with a shopping spree, of course!

The rapper was chill and grinning in Beverly Hills Wednesday, splurging on some high-end designers -- and with Rihanna's birthday today, looks like he’s loading up on a luxe haul for her.

RiRi’s hitting the big 3-7 today, and judging by how A$AP jumped right into her arms when his verdict came through earlier this week, it’s clear she’s his ultimate queen. No surprise here -- looks like he'll definitely be all about spoiling his partner and the mother of their two sons with some serious gifts.

Delta officials are digging into the company's pockets, offering $30,000 to each of the dozens of people who miraculously survived a plane crash in Canada this week.

The airline extended the offer to the 76 passengers aboard Monday's Delta flight from Minneapolis to Toronto, where the jet crashed as it landed on the runway, spinning around and flipping over in a fireball of black smoke. Authorities said 21 people out of the 80 on the plane (there were 4 crew members) were hospitalized, and all have since been released.

In a statement Wednesday, Delta execs said there are no strings attached to the money and anyone who accepts the funds can still take legal action against the airline. They said the pre-lawsuit payouts to passengers on Flight 4819 could reach $2.2 million total.

Pat Boone says Walt Disney would be appalled by the state of Disney today ... claiming the company's sold out its ideals to make a quick buck -- and, the company ain't for families anymore.

We caught up with the legendary singer and actor at LAX Tuesday ... and, he tells us that the founder of Disneyland "must be spinning in his grave" because Boone says the company's trying to shed its identity as a family filmmaker.

Boone says the company just wants to make money ... which is absolutely not what Disney envisioned when he founded the company.

Sources tell TMZ Hip Hop Cardi rolled up with a large crew to White Horse Tavern, one of the oldest pubs in Manhattan's West Village. It's a living artifact -- established in 1880!!!

We're told Cardi's bunch was about 10 people, including kids, in what looked to be her grandpa, cousins, and relatives ... no sightings of Offset, or her new football flame, though.

The Milton mansion, originally listed for $6 million amid their messy 2023 divorce, finally found a buyer for $2.75 million last month ... after what felt like an eternity of price cuts and auction threats.

They may not have gotten their asking price, but since they bought the mansion for under $900K in 2012, they still made a profit -- and that's a win considering their ongoing financial situation.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori have both had their reps contact a divorce lawyer this week, and that usually means one thing ... and that "thing" does not involve a prenup.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the reps contacted at least one lawyer early in the week, and this was not the first time. Another source with direct knowledge tells TMZ, one of Kanye's reps contacted another lawyer back in October, when TMZ was reporting marital trouble. We're told the rep "was hot, angry." Our source says the lawyer passed on repping Ye.

If they do pull the trigger and file for divorce, it's going to be an interesting case, because sources with direct knowledge tell us, there's no prenup. What makes it even more intriguing, we're told Kanye has actually lost money since he married Bianca. In California, assets and debts are split equally, so on the surface, she could actually owe money.

Jay-Z is going out of his way to expose Tony Buzbee's alleged attempts to get large sums of money from him over 2 different allegations -- one of which was just dismissed, and the other never even ended up in court.

According to docs Jay-Z filed this week, obtained by TMZ, Buzbee sent 2 "demand letters" to Jay in November 2024 -- one of them was over the Jane Doe who accused Jay and Diddy of raping her in 2000, when she was 13. The other was for a John Doe, who, according to the letter, claimed Jay sexually assaulted him at a 2015 Beverly Hills party ... when he was 16, and had been secretly drugged by someone other than Jay.

Now, Jay calls both allegations "false and ridiculous in every respect." As we reported, the Jane Doe accuser filed Friday to dismiss her case ... a huge victory for Jay and Diddy.
