Meek Mill shocked the folks at Rolling Loud Fest in Miami with his first performance since getting sprung from prison

DJ Khaled hyped the crowd up and then Meek came out, performing "Dreams and Nightmares," “On the Regular,” “Ima Boss,” and “1942 Flows.”

Meek told the crowd, “It feels good to be back and free in front of the motherfucking people,” he told the crowd. “Thank you to everybody that supported me. They tried to take my freedom. They tried to crush my dreams. But now we’re in Miami glowing the fuck up. Let’s get it!”

Meek still has to deal with Judge Brinkley, who threw him in prison for a probation violation and would not even entertain the notion of bail, despite prosecutors admitting a dirty cop was responsible for his underlying conviction. The Pennsylvania Supreme saw it Meek's way and released him, but he's not in the clear until Brinkley holds a hearing month on whether to toss the conviction.

Beck's certainly not a Loser when it comes to owning real estate -- the musician just bought a new L.A. home ... right next to his current pad.

Beck and his wife, Marissa Ribisi, scooped up the 3 bed, 4 bath, 2,725 sq. ft. modernized Spanish Colonial in the hillside neighborhood of Los Feliz ... featuring vaulted ceilings, a master suite with private balcony, a 2-car garage and a pool that will make ya say Wow.

The couple said Hell Yes to dropping $3.128 million on the house -- previously owned by "Gossip Girl" creator Stephanie Savage -- with Dreams of expanding their current property right next door into a mini-compound.

Talk about realt-E-Pro.

Lindsey Buckingham is no longer a part of the band he founded ... and it was not his choice.

Lindsey was performing Friday night at an L.A. backyard fundraiser for California Congressman Mike Levin, when he told the crowd he has not been a part of Fleetwood Mac for 3 months. He made it clear it was not his doing ... he was unceremoniously kicked out by a band member or members.

Lindsey didn't say who was behind the overthrow, but judging from the video it sure seems it was Stevie Nicks.

Buckingham seemed sad, saying the members behind the ouster were tarnishing the group's 43-year legacy.

Bill Clinton will bow to Kenny G when it comes to which one of 'em is the better sax player, but he's talking a little trash about who owns a better instrument.

We got the ex-Prez Friday outside NYC's Pierre Hotel and asked him about Kenny telling us his sax skills blow away Clinton's. But Bill pulled a little one-up on Kenny by tooting his own iconic horn. He revealed that he bought one made by none other than Adolphe Sax -- the dude who invented the saxophone!

Sure, Kenny bragged about his own classic sax, but when you see how old vintage Clinton's is ... even Kenny would have to hand Bill this victory. We think.

With Dwane Casey out as the head coach of the Toronto Raptors, Metta World Peace says he knows the right man for the job ... Drake.

We broke the news about Casey's firing to Metta on the streets of Beverly Hills -- and since Metta's been vocal about wanting to be a coach, we asked if he'd be interested.

Of course, Metta said he'd be down ... but seemed more excited about the idea of Drake taking over the role, since he already has an official position with the team.

(For the record, Metta says Drake has an ownership stake, but it appears he's wrong -- he works with the team as the global ambassador).

Cowboys WR Cole Beasley says if you think he's just another athlete-turned-rapper you're dead wrong ... because he's just the opposite, telling TMZ Sports he's actually a rapper-turned-athlete.

Cole released a single "80 Stings" back in January, and the critical consensus from most people was that Beasley spit hot fire like Dylan.

We talked to Cole and his producer "Phazz" Clark ... and CB says the toughest thing about being an athlete that raps is that he isn't that at all.

"For this album to be a success, for me it's really just opening the door for people looking past the athlete trying to rap, to he's just a rapper who happens to play football."

FYI -- Cole's debut album, "The Autobiography," drops Saturday ... and Cole says his album release party is gonna have all the Cowboys there, bringing together one thing athletes and rappers do have in common:

Groupies. (Cole is married ladies).

Johnny Depp's shaved off a lot of his famous flowing locks, and what's left is his new take on the mohawk 'cause ... rock 'n' roll, baby!

Johnny's taken the sides all the way down to his scalp but, instead of just rocking your standard mohawk, he's braided the tail end of it. Maybe a cool tip of the hat to Captain Jack Sparrow.

He also ditched his mustache and goatee. He'll be debuting the new look with his band, Hollywood Vampires, next week in Verona, NY.

Tina Knowles knew very early Beyonce would be a star, so she put her kids in counseling so Solange could deal with being in Bey's shadow.

Tina sat down with Maria Shriver Friday to discuss her kids and parenting skills. Knowles says Beyonce's local fame ballooned at an early age, so she'd take Wednesdays off work for "Solange Day" ... a day dedicated to Solange, who sometimes had a hard time living in Beyonce's shadow.

Tina also revealed her daughters saw a counselor because Beyonce would sometimes get irritated with her little sister ... and the counseling helped to ease that tension.

TMZ got a close look at Offset's $150k chain that was swiped from his NYC penthouse suite, and when this many diamonds go missing ... ya gotta feel for the guy.

As we previously reported, the bling was stolen sometime Tuesday evening from the Migos rapper's room at SIXTY LES, a hotel in the lower east side. It was reportedly last seen on a coffee table in the room before it went missing.

It appears to be the short one, nearest to his neck, that he wore when he went to Monday night's Met Gala. It's about 60 big diamonds set in gold. It looks like it was the only ice that was jacked at the time.

NYPD is still investigating and using surveillance footage to track down the culprit.

The man who broke into Rihanna's home Wednesday told cops he was there to have sex with the singer, adding his plan was not to use force to make it happen.

Eduardo Leon was tased and arrested Thursday morning after Rihanna's assistant found him inside her L.A.-area house. The 26-year-old had somehow disabled her alarm system and entered, where he stayed at least an entire day.

Cops say he made himself at home ... charging his phone and unpacking his bag.

We're told Leon broke into another home May 4 thinking it was Rihanna's ... and that's why he was arrested for stalking. He was also booked for residential burglary and trespassing.

Rihanna apparently wasn't in L.A. when Leon broke in.

Rapper Kamaiyah was arrested Friday after she defied TSA agents who demanded she take off her headgear.

Kamaiyah was traveling out of Bradley International Airport in Connecticut early Friday morning, and set off an alarm when she went through the checkpoint. TSA told her she couldn't fly without removing an article she had on her head, so it could be inspected.

Kamaiyah, best known for her 2016 hit, "How Does It Feel" ... wasn't having it and reportedly flew into a tirade. She was eventually handcuffed and escorted out of the airport. Her bond was set at $5,000.

If looks could kill, then throw Jason Momoa's ass in jail right now ... cause HOT DAMN!!!

Aquaman was riding his motorcycle along the Malibu coast Thursday and Mr. Adonis actually outdid himself without having to flash his washboard abs or heart-melting smile. Jason's a motorcycle enthusiast, so it's no wonder he's got the bike gear down to a T.

Jason later pulled into a gas station and pumped some gas ... proving Jason can make even the most menial task look like art. And thank the mighty stars he pulled into the station ... cause he took off his helmet and flashed his mane and that smile.

BTW ... Jasons' gotta be the guy George Thorogood was singing about in "Bad to the Bone," right? One look at Jason riding his bike and no doubt dude's broken at least 1,000 hearts.

No word if nurses gathered around the day he was born.

Mel B might've played too fast and loose with the truth by implying the Spice Girls were performing at the Royal wedding, 'cause they're not -- at least for now ... TMZ has learned.

Sources tell us that while Scary Spice and co. will, in fact, be attending Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's nuptials later this month ... there are no current plans to have the group perform at any point in the festivities. M&H haven't asked ... neither has Kensington Palace.

What's more ... we're told the Spice Girls haven't rehearsed anything for the wedding either, as of now, and with about a week or so before the Royal couple ties the knot ... it ain't likely they'll get an act together in time for a showstopper. The last time the Spice Girls performed together was in 2012 at the London Olympics ... so they're probably a little rusty.

As we reported ... Mel B led on that the Girls were hitting the stage together for the wedding while chatting with the ladies of "The Real." She didn't come out and say it outright, but she didn't deny it either ... which led everyone, including us, to believe just that.

Unfortunately, we're told she was getting ahead of herself ... 'cause there's simply no truth to that as of right now. Keep in mind ... the wedding is on May 19.

All that said ... it wouldn't be implausible to see the Spice Girls possibly do something to entertain the crowd -- they're all gonna be under one roof for crying out loud, which doesn't happen all that often. Mel, Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton recently got together ... sans Victoria or Mel C, though.

Hopefully, they can give us a bow ... a note ... ANYTHING to tease this upcoming tour of theirs.

If John McEnroe reconsiders and accepts Donald Trump's million dollar offer to play Serena or Venus Williams ... one major celebrity has already picked the women to win.

"Man, Serena and Venus all the way," Common told us.

Of course, Common's a little biased ... he used to date Serena back in the day -- but maybe that's why he's confident Johnny Mac would take the "L" if they really throw down on the court.

As we previously reported, McEnroe says Trump made a real effort to make the $1 Mil Battle of the Sexes match a reality ... but John says he had no real desire to compete against a female.

'Love & Hip Hop' star Teairra Mari allegedly took a metal pole to her boyfriend's car windows after accusing him of revenge porn the day before ... TMZ has learned.

Teairra's BF, Akbar Abdul-Ahad, tells us he was working out at his apartment's gym in North Hollywood Thursday when he got a call from security that a woman was smashing his G-Wagon windows outside. Sure enough ... AAA says he came upon Teairra doing just that.

We're told Teairra was using a metal rod from a bar stool, which he claims she was swinging at his passenger side window and windshield. Based on these photos -- obtained by TMZ -- it looks like someone broke through at least one, and was working on the other.

AAA says Teairra was accompanied by another 'L&HH' star, Milan Christopher, and that they took off when he showed up to confront them. Akbar hasn't filed a police report yet.

The alleged attack appears to be in reaction to lewd photos and video of Teairra engaged in sex acts being posted this week, which she accused AAA of leaking. AAA denies being the one who leaked the sensitive material ... but admits to being the male in the clips.

Hugh Jackman said it with a sexy grin but it still hurt like hell -- Wolverine will NOT appear in "Deadpool 2." A thousand apologies, Ryan Reynolds.

We got Logan himself in NYC on Thursday and pressed him about Ryan -- who plays Wade Wilson's alter ego, Deadpool -- still desperately trying to get him to hop on the Marvel flick crossover. Ryan said as much last week ... even though "Deadpool 2" is being released next Friday.

Hugh was asked about it on 'GMA' Thursday morning and straight-up said Ryan's coming off a little too thirsty ... saying, "Ryan ... back it up a little. Play a little hard to get. It's too much. It's not sexy."
