Cardi B just did what Beyonce refused to last year -- making her debut at Coachella while SUPER pregnant ... but her ever-growing baby bump didn't slow her down one bit.

Cardi hit the stage Sunday night for Day 3 of the festival, where she performed hit songs from her album "Invasion of Privacy." She was rockin' an all white mesh top and high-waisted pants that kept her baby bump from being too visible.

But still, there was no hiding that bump, and Cardi wasn't slowing down one bit just because she was preggo -- she twerked all over the stage and hyped up the crowd. She even brought out 21 Savage, YG, G-Eazy, Chance the Rapper, and Kehlani for surprise cameos. Safe to say, pregnancy ain't no thang for Cardi when it comes to getting that Coachella $$$$.

The scorching desert couldn't stop these hot celebs from stripping down at showing off their goods on the third day of the Coachella Music and Arts Festival.

Famous faces like Gigi and Bella Hadid, Iggy Azalea, Justin Bieber, Romee Strijd, Aubrey O'Day, Christina Millian, Jen Selter, Ansel Elgort, Kara Del Toro, Casper Smart, Big Boi, Von Miller and TONS more were dancing around the Indio Valley.

Not to the mention performances by Cardi B, The Migos, French Montana, Miguel and headlined by Eminem ensured there was lots to see both on and off the stages.

R. Kelly's latest accuser claims he not only held her against her will, but he also plied her with drugs and alcohol ... and left her with an STD.

The woman claims she was 19 when she met Kelly in Dallas last June. According to her attorney ... she was unlawfully restrained, and Kelly gave her alcohol and "illegal drugs." She's claiming aggravated assault based on the singer allegedly giving her an unspecified STD.

The accuser's attorney, Lee Merritt, told the Washington Post ... she went to Dallas PD last week to file a report against Kelly, and she's getting ready to file a lawsuit. Kelly's reps have denied the allegations.

The woman says she's reached out to Joycelyn Savage's family, too. As TMZ reported ... Joycelyn's parents believe Kelly's turned her, and several other women, into his sex slaves. Although, Joycelyn told us she's not being held against her will.

Logic's wasting little time getting back in the saddle ... or in his case, in a private jet with a new chick.

Our Logic sources say the rapper boarded a jet bound for Vegas to do a show last week, and had a 19-year-old hot blonde with him, who we're told is named Brittney. She and Logic met earlier this year.

Sources say Brittney works at a juice shop in Calabasas that he frequents. It's unclear when they started dating.

TMZ broke the story ... Logic pulled the plug on his marriage last month from Jessica Andrea, and divorce is looming. As we first reported, Logic and Jessica have a prenup, but we're told there's some wrangling about the terms.

DJ Khaled's 18-month-old son, Asahd, is gonna be throwing down stacks for mini cars with his name on 'em before he learns how to sign his name ... if all goes as planned.

Khaled and his wife, Nicole Tuck, filed to trademark Asahd's name on just about everything imaginable ... keychains, perfumes, cosmetics, clothing (i.e. jogging suits), linens, video games and jewelry ... you name it.

They also want the right to slap his name on a bunch of kid's stuff including strollers, pacifiers, children's books, bibs, dried fruit snacks, teething rings, and yep ... mini kid cars!

Nicole had to sign on the dotted line of the docs on account of, y'know ... Asahd not writing yet.

The kid's already collaborated with Jordan Brand ... so launching his own brand should be a walk in the park. As they say ... start 'em young.

Bobby Shmurda could be walking out of prison sooner than he (and most people) expected ... thanks to some simple math.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Bobby will have a parole hearing in August 2020, and could be eligible to be paroled by December 2020 from Clinton Correctional Facility in Upstate NY.

Quick timetable: Bobby was sentenced to 6-7 years in 2016, so, theoretically, he wouldn't get a whiff of freedom until 2022 at best. However, a little something called time served is gonna push that date way forward.

The 23-year-old rapper sat in jail -- awaiting his murder conspiracy trial -- from December 2014 until his eventual sentencing. We're told he's getting credit for 685 days behind bars. That number, nearly 2 years, gets added to his prison time and equals ... 2020 parole, instead of 2022.

Azealia Banks was breaking down and sobbing on her Instagram story Saturday night, claiming she'd been sexually assaulted ... and threatening to quit music over it.

In since-deleted Instagram videos posted to the NYC rapper's Story, Azealia can be heard crying over being "low key" raped by a man she claims pressured her into sex.

In the posts -- which were captured by a third party and posted online -- she starts off with a disclaimer saying she fells "like dirt." She also partially blames herself for the alleged rape, and goes on to threaten deleting her social media accounts until she's okay again.

Azealia was clearly affected by the incident -- the details of which are left ambiguous for now. She doesn't say where this happened, but presumably it occurred Saturday night. She also doesn't name the alleged perpetrator.

You never see her face ... only her voice, which at one point says someone "got the best of me." She eventually asks someone to come pick her up -- but the posts were later deleted off her account. She did, however, allude to roofies in later posts ... and added she was "good" from the night before and that her show on Sunday was still on.

We're told the guy Bieber punched was NOT arrested. No one reported the choking incident.

Justin Bieber punched a guy in the face and threw him against a wall after the man grabbed a woman by the throat at a Coachella party, and would not release his grip on her ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us Justin and a friend showed up at a party Saturday being attended by Patrick Schwarzenegger. Justin was talking to some people when a guy walked in, spotted a woman ... and went ballistic. Sources at the party say he appeared to be on drugs -- and it looked as if the woman may have been his ex-GF.

We're told the guy suddenly grabbed the woman by the throat and would not release her. Justin and his friend started screaming at the guy to let her go, but he only screamed back "Go f*** yourself" ... maintaining his grip. At that point, Justin hit the man in the face and pushed him against the wall ... allowing the woman to break free.

The Weeknd appears to be swooping in on more of Justin Bieber's leftovers at Coachella -- this time getting cozy with Chantel Jeffries.

Abel was spotted Saturday night at Day 2 of the festival with his arm around Chantel, as they strolled around the closed-off VIP area ... drinks in hand, and all smiles. They were also seen hugging at one point, and she even leaned her head on his shoulder.

We've been down this road before -- as you might recall, Weeknd dated Selena Gomez for the better part of 2017, and they had themselves a PDA-filled Coachella last spring as well.

Another day at Coachella ... another slew of celebs showing up and showing off their hottest desert styles.

Stars like Rihanna, Dennis Rodman, Kylie Jenner, Halsey, Olivia Culpo, Kyle Richards, Amber Rose, A$AP Rocky, Demi Lovato -- who posed for a provocative pool shot on the second day of the music fest -- and tons more were in Indio to enjoy performances by artists like HAIM, Tyler the Creator, David Byrne, alt-J, Post Malone and of course ... Beyonce.

Beyonce pulled a fast one at Coachella, fooling even us ... 'cause she reunited with her old Destiny's Child crew for one HELLUVA performance this weekend.

Bey took the stage late Saturday night as the Day 2 headliner, and after an already kick-ass performance ... she eventually brought out Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams for a long overdue Destiny's Child reunion, contrary to what we'd been told in December.

Bey and co. started out with a few DC classics ... going from "Lose My Breath" to "Say My Name" and even belting out "Soldier" too. That wasn't the end of the cameos, though. Beyonce also brought out her hubby, Jay-Z, to cover their hit 2012 song "Deja Vu."

Her sister, Solange, also joined her on stage at one point to dance. Speaking of dancers, Beyonce's stage was flooded with them ... as we first told you, upwards of 100 or so. As if that wasn't historic enough, she also touched a milestone as the first black woman to headline the festival.

Needless to say, Beyonce certainly made up for lost time after missing Coachella last year. She even addressed her absence, saying ... "I had time to dream with two beautiful souls in my belly and this is everything and more I had in my dream, so thank you for sharing this with me."

Eminem's got some big shoes to fill tonight.

The Walmart yodeling kid ain't done yodeling yet -- he went straight from Coachella this weekend to play another, and seemingly much more important, gig in Nashville.

Mason Ramsey performed Saturday night at the famous Grand Ole Opry, which has hosted the likes of country legends like Johnny Cash, Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Little Jimmy Dickens, and many, many more. The kid did his thing -- Hank Williams' "Lovesick Blues."

Apparently, this was one of Mason's dreams -- as it would be for any aspiring country artist. The Grand Ole Opry is known as "the show that made country music famous," with weekly performances dating back to the 1920s. And if you're wondering ... Mason killed.

Can't say we're surprised by the outpouring of love he's getting right now. He's become a national sensation ever since his OG Walmart yodeling clip went viral ... which ended up getting him a slot at Day 1 of Coachella, and appeared to win over Justin Bieber.

When Cardi B performs the biggest show of her life at Coachella, her pregnancy won't make the scene backstage any less of a rager ... at least for her entourage.

We got a hold of Cardi's rider and it's stocked, at first glance, with several things a pregnant woman shouldn't be consuming ... but also several preggo-friendly options. Here are some highlights:

- 6 dozen white roses
- Degree spray deodorant
- Gillette razors
- Grilled/fried chicken
- Caesar salad
- Roasted vegetables
- 2 bottles of D'usse
- 2 bottles of Hennessy
- 1 Bottle of 1942 tequila
- 20 bottles of water
- Red Bull
- Fresh coffee

We're told Cardi, who is due the first week of July, will obviously not be indulging in the booze ... ditto for Red Bull and coffee. All that stuff is for her hard-working team.

The roses are 100 percent for the boss lady, though. Let's face it, Cardi's getting used to that sweet smell of success.

And then there was one ...

Toni Braxton is now hitting the road without either of her sisters after 86'ing Tamar from the upcoming family tour.

The tour was supposed to feature three of the Braxtons ... Toni along with Tamar and Traci as her opening acts. That didn't last long. We broke the story, Traci got the axe last month after she sparred with Tamar over her estranged husband, Vince Herbert.

We're now told promoters also don't want to deal with Tamar's divorce drama -- so they dropped her from the tour, too. Important to note, Vince is still Tamar's manager.

There could be a hip-hop hoops battle brewing ... because Justin Bieber and Quavo were just put on blast by super hot ATL rapper Famous Dex ... who says he'd punish both guys in basketball.

We ran into Dex down in Atlanta, and after he showered a lobby with cash, we decided to ask him some sports questions ... while he put the money back in his bag.

Our guy wanted to know if Dex ... a notorious hooper ... thought he could take two other big time ballers -- Quavo & JB -- on the basketball court. Here's a hint, he's confident.

"Man I'll bust Quavo ass out. Quavo don't wanna see me," Dex said, then throwing Justin's name in too.

"Justin Bieber will get blown out 24-0, 35-0."

Your move guys, we just wanna watch.

Gucci Mane's show came to a brief halt after a guy jumped on stage and got a little too close to the rapper for comfort ... and got promptly destroyed by a body check.

Gucci was performing at Tuskegee University in Alabama Friday night when the guy crashed the stage, but before he could dance -- or whatever he was doing -- to the front ... Gucci's road manager, Snake, came flying in for the blindside block.

Another member of Mane's crew then stepped in for the final takedown ... and the show went on.

Gucci wrote ... "Somebody Tried to Sack The QuarterBack last nite but shout out my road manager aka Fullback @atlsnake #OnGuard #EyesUp"
