Lady Gaga's gold-chinned male muse in her "Bad Romance" video allegedly tried to jack a bunch of women's underthings, but got caught ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us Slovenian actor Yuri Bradac was arrested for shoplifting earlier this month in the San Fernando Valley after mall employees told cops they caught him trying to walk out with pantyhose and other underwear items.

We're told he was detained by Macy's personnel, who told cops they saw Bradac try to steal 3 items worth $29.50 each -- and when they nabbed him they also found stolen perfume from Victoria's Secret.

Bradac tells us he'd merely stepped outside with the lingerie to look for his wife. He says if he were going to steal, he wouldn't have the items in his hand ... out in the open. He claims it's all a misunderstanding.

Rae Sremmurd rapper Slim Jxmmi's problem isn't double vision, it's diamond vision ... but that'll happen when you ice out 2 high-priced watches and turn them into eyewear.

Slim got all 'Mad Max' on his timepieces by combining them to make what we imagine is probably the first ever pair of watch-goggles.

Slim gave his Audemars and Rolex Yacht-Master watches -- more than $50k each -- to Houston celebrity jeweler ZoFrost, and told him to go to town.

It's a cool idea for those who don't wanna see, but definitely want to be seen.

Mike D says the highly anticipated book about the Beastie Boys isn't exactly a memoir -- it's not sexually explicit enough -- but if the charts are any indication ... it's gonna make some noise.

We got the rapper at LAX Friday and asked if he could dish any details on the upcoming "Beastie Boys Book" about his days with Ad-Rock and the late MCA -- he confirms it includes a cookbook ... and straightens out our camera guy on how many pages it is.

Mike doesn't give away much else, but we know the cooking portion's from chef Roy Choi, and the book includes contributions by Wes Anderson, Amy Poehler and Spike Jonze.

He's also said it will be "unlike any other music book."

"Beastie Boys Book" doesn't get released until October 30, but it's already the #1 seller in Amazon's Rap Music category. Now ... enjoy this music video.

Mick Fleetwood's typically a man of few words when it comes to band drama, and he only needed one word when asked if a major rumor circulating is true -- "No."

The Fleetwood Mac co-founder and drummer repeatedly denied speculation that Stevie Nicks is responsible for Lindsey Buckingham's departure when we got him at LAX Friday night.

The alleged story is Nicks wanted Mike Campbell from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers to replace Buckingham and issued an ultimatum -- Lindsey goes or I go -- and the band sided with Nicks. But again, Mick says that's not true.

As we reported ... Buckingham left the group in early April and was replaced by Campbell and Neil Finn from Crowded house, but he recently told a crowd in L.A. he was actually thrown out ... and insinuated Stevie's the one who broke the chain.

Nas was many things during his club appearance in Vegas Friday night -- happy, funny, forgetful -- but he definitely wasn't on top of his rap game.

The East Coast hip hop artist was at Palms in Vegas for the grand opening of the Apex Social Club, but made a grand exit after less than 10 minutes on the microphone ... according to partygoers.

We're told Nas appeared to be on the sauce, and in the vid he mentions he can barely hear himself. He does get a few bars in, but then laughs and bails on the track halfway through.

It's all good, though ... because Nas closed out by giving a shout-out to "everybody living life."

Diddy's making his presence known in the fresh beef between Drake and Pusha T ... but it's hard to tell who he's rooting for.

The music and liquor mogul hit up David Grutman's STORY Nightclub in South Beach around 3:45 AM Saturday and joined Drake at his VIP area for some laughs, big hugs, Remy Martin and of course ... several bottles of Diddy's Ciroc vodka.

Drizzy was already at the club, hangin' with Migos, Busta Rhymes and sports stars Le'Veon Bell, Rudy Gay and Lance Stephenson ... shortly after dropping a diss track about Pusha T in response to Pusha shading him on his new Daytona album.

As we reported ... Drake also invoiced Pusha T for $100k for reviving his career.

Pusha's not taking an L yet, though ... because Diddy's got his back, too. He sent the rapper a handwritten letter praising his new album, writing (in cursive, no less) ... "A Modern Day Masterpiece. A Flawless Hip Hop Gem. Classic But Current."

Stay tuned for the latest beef developments.

Drake is not letting his beef with Pusha T go, sending him an invoice for $100k for resuscitating his career.

It's the latest grenade in the what is become a war between the 2 rappers ... triggered by Pusha's album with Kanye, where he shaded Drizzy for using a ghostwriter for his bars.

Pusha posted a notice to Drake on Twitter to send him an invoice for the added publicity and Drake followed through.

In Pusha's new song, "Infrared," he raps, "Your hooks did it/ The lyrics pennin' equals to Trump's winnin'/ The bigger question is how the Russians did it/ It was written like Nas but it came from Quentin." Quentin famously wrote lyrics for Drake.

After Pusha dropped the song, Drake quickly released a diss track ... "If you rebuke me for working with someone else on a couple of V's, what do you really think of the n**** that's making your beats?/ I've done things for him, I thought that he never would need/Father had to stretch his hands out and get it from me." Drake later references the invoice.

Drake's invoice was to the point ... "FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES RENDERED. RE: Promotional assistance and career reviving."

Chris Brown and his baby mama, Nia Guzman, have called a truce in their never-ending custody war ... deciding for the sake of Royalty that they'll throw a joint 4th birthday party.

Royalty turns 4 on Sunday and we're told there's only gonna be one bash this year. In the past, Chris and Nia have each thrown their own parties for Royalty because they weren't speaking to one another, but we're told they're actually on good terms now ... trying to co-parent.

Royalty wanted a princess ball for her birthday and Chris and Nia are planning to go all out by dropping well north of $30k on the party. We're told every Disney princess from Cinderella to Jasmine will be there along with a fairy godmother. They're having a horse and carriage with a grand duke and coachman.

On the menu ... crab cakes, California rolls, shrimp tempura, as well as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, mac and cheese and burgers for the kids.

Pierce Brosnan's Bob Dylan painting sold for more than $1 million, and TMZ's learned the new owner is none other than the woman who plunked down $17.8 mil on Kim and Kanye's Bel-Air mansion.

We're told Ukrainian billionaire Marina Acton snapped up 007's painting of Zimmy earlier this week at the 25th annual amFAR Cannes charity gala.

Pierce, who first took up painting back in the '80s, has gotten more serious about it, and the price tag on his work proves it -- Marina dropped $1.4 million.

As for Acton ... she's quickly building a rep for pricey Hollywood collectibles. You already know about the Bel-Air crib Kim and Kanye initially bought for $9 million back in 2013.

Not long after that purchase, Acton also shelled out another $2 million for some Beatles history.

UFC Champ Tyron Woodley says Kendrick Lamar should've let a white concertgoer get away with saying the n-word ... saying the young lady deserved a pass.

It happened last week during a concert in Alabama ... Kendrick admonished the fan when she let the word slip during a performance of "M.A.A.D. City," and of course it instantly went viral.

Woodley was on his show "The Hollywood Beatdown" when the topic came up ... and Tyron took the wrong less traveled by black dudes, saying he thought the young lady was GREAT.

"I thought it was hilarious. I thought how confident she was, no reservation, no hesitation, she came right off the nugget. She didn't miss one line."

Hope you didn't think he'd stop there ... Tyron went to explain that he routinely gives n-word passes when he does stand-up comedy, and tries to get his co-host Evan (white dude) to says the word.

Evan passes ... which is UNDOUBTEDLY the smart decision.

Kanye West apparently threw down $85k for a photo of Whitney Houston's drug-ridden bathroom that'll now be the cover of Pusha T's new album, "Daytona."

Pusha T told Angie Martinez in an interview Wednesday that his original album art was canned at the last minute in favor of a photo West licensed for the obscene amount of money. Pusha said that Ye put his own cash down on it too since they'd already agreed on something else previously -- telling Push, “This is what people need to see to go along with this music.”

"Daytona" drops Friday, but the artwork was released Thursday.

Jacquees didn't make it hard for cops to pull him over and subsequently arrest him this week -- he was allegedly driving over 100 MPH ... and got busted for weed.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ Jacuqees was arrested near Atlanta early Thursday morning after police pulled him over for speeding. Cops say he clocked in at 116 MPH. Before stopping, police say something was tossed out of Jacquees' passenger side window, which they claim he later told them was marijuana. They say they found 3 more grams inside.

He was taken to jail and booked for speeding, reckless driving, littering and possession of a controlled substance. His passenger was also booked for possession.

Camila Cabello's out in the streets with a big ole bottle in hand ... of water, which is smart since she was recently rushed to a hospital for dehydration.

The "Havana" singer was spotted out Wednesday afternoon in Bev Hills with her mother, looking like she's well on the mend. She was hospitalized after the Billboard Music Awards Sunday night ... for dehydration and a fever.

Camila was forced to cancel her opening spot for Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour in Seattle. Barring any setbacks, she should be onstage Friday night when the tour hits Denver.

The couple that does sweaty yoga together, stays together??

Seems to be the case with Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez ... who hit up a group Hot Pilates workout class at TruFusion in the Miami area -- and put in that work!

J-Rod seemed to enjoy it ... doing breath exercises, chopping moves, dancing and posing for selfies with everyone in the class.

They also threw fake money to promote J Lo's new song, "Dinero," with Cardi B and DJ Khaled.

The people in the class loved it -- and gave the couple an ovation after the workout. J Lo rewarded the group with a little dance number.

Lil Pump is sharing his wealth, in the iciest way possible -- snapping up bust down watches for his whole crew ... 'cause that's what you do when you're dripping in half a mil.

We spotted Pump at Avianne & Co jewelers Wednesday night in NYC, and he and his crew happily flashed us their shiny new timepieces -- even his lawyer got one! If you're wondering what a bust down watch is ... it's essentially a watch covered in diamonds.

So, yeah ... not cheap.

Common says the new NFL anthem policy is robbing players of their freedom of speech -- and that's not what this country is supposed to be about.

"I just think ... telling people what they should do during a ceremony is not really what the country is based on," Common told us while out in Bev Hills.

"Freedom of speech, freedom to be who you are ... This country is supposed to be about us being independent and being able to be who we are. Especially in a ceremony where people aren't trying to disrespect anything."

Common says Colin Kaepernick's intent with his demonstration wasn't to disrespect the flag or the military -- but rather put a spotlight on racial injustice, specifically the wave of black people being killed by police.
