DJ Envy and his wife Gia Casey are coming in hot with allegations against Tyrese ... claiming the actor/R&B star attempted to wedge himself into their marriage!!!

Tensions have still been high in the aftermath of their Breakfast Club interview last week where Tyrese acknowledged a beef between himself and Envy, but fans were clueless as to why ... until now!!!

On Tuesday, Envy revealed the reason on-air ... claiming Tyrese was becoming pushy in his friendship with his wife, and was planting bugs in Gia's ear with tempting words like " ... if you had a man like me."

To make matters worse, Envy says a man claiming to be Tyrese's ex-assistant texted him from out of the blue warning him not to trust Tyrese, because his own wife had allegedly been seduced by Tyrese's charms as well.

Gia then called in claiming the strong bond she and Tyrese formed via text became alarming when he became demanding with her time, and even set a list of expectations.

Tyrese just dropped a 20-minute video defending himself, claiming he had been in good standing with Gia up until their last text exchanges in August 2022.

Taylor Swift is seein' stars in the Big Apple ... they just happen to be her good pals, as she did dinner with Gigi Hadid, Ryan Reynolds, Channing Tatum and some equally famous significant others.

The singer hit up Emilio's Ballato restaurant Monday evening in NYC, where Ryan showed up with his wife, Blake Lively, and Channing pulled up with his arm around GF Zoë Kravitz.

That's not all ... Cara Delevingne also attended the big dinner date. FYI, Cara was spotted leaving the studio with Taylor last week -- not long after the singer announced she's hard at work on re-recording her "1989" album.

As you know, Taylor's been putting in some serious studio time for a while now -- during and after wrapping up the U.S. leg of her "Eras" Tour ... which became a national phenomenon.

Don't forget ... Taylor, Channing, Zoë, and Cara were all together last month for Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley's wedding in New Jersey, too, so they've all been keepin' up with one another lately.

Taylor Swift está viendo estrellas en la Gran Manzana, pues la vimos cenando nada más ni mada menos que con sus buenos amigos Gigi Hadid, Ryan Reynolds, Channing Tatum y otras personalidades igualmente famosas.

La cantante fue al restaurante Emilio's Ballato el lunes por la noche en Nueva York, donde Ryan apareció con su esposa, Blake Lively, y Channing llegó abrazado de su novia Zoë Kravitz.

Eso no es todo ... Cara Delevingne también asistió a la gran cena. Para su información, Cara fue vista saliendo del estudio con Taylor la semana pasada, no mucho después de que la cantante anunciara que está trabajando duro en la regrabación de su álbum "1989".

Como saben, Taylor ha estado trabajando duro en el estudio desde hace un tiempo, mientras tocaba e incluso después de terminar su gira "The Eras Tour" en Estados Unidos, que se convirtió en un fenómeno nacional.

No oliven tampoco que Taylor, Channing, Zoë y Cara estuvieron juntos el mes pasado en la boda de Jack Antonoff y Margaret Qualley en Nueva Jersey, por lo que todos se han visto mucho últimamente.

Steven Tyler is hitting the pause button on his Aerosmith Farewell tour, this after the legendary singer injured his vocal cords, causing them to bleed.

In a statement posted to Instagram, Tyler said he received heartbreaking news from a doctor, who ordered him to stay away from his microphone for the next 30 days after the throat damage occurred at Saturday's performance.

He went on to say the rock group is postponing six upcoming concerts, pushing them to January and February 2024. The rescheduled shows will take place in Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Raleigh, Washington, D.C. and Toronto, Canada.

Previously purchased tickets will be honored on the new dates, and fans can ask for a refund if they get tied up and can't go.

Steven Tyler está presionando el botón de pausa en la gira Aerosmith Farewell, esto luego de que el legendario cantante se lesionara las cuerdas vocales, causándole una hemorragia.

En un comunicado publicado en Instagram Tyler dijo que recibió noticias desgarradoras de un médico, quien le ordenó mantenerse alejado del micrófono durante los próximos 30 días luego de que el daño en la garganta ocurriera en la actuación del sábado.

El grupo de rock pospone sus seis próximos conciertos en enero y febrero de 2024. Los conciertos reprogramados tendrán lugar en Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Raleigh, Washington D.C. y Toronto (Canadá).

Las entradas adquiridas con anterioridad se mantendrán en las nuevas fechas y los fans podrán solicitar el reembolso si no pueden asistir.

Erica Mena says she's sorry for calling her reality show costar a monkey -- but she insists there was no racism behind the insult.

The ex-'Love & Hip Hop' star -- who was booted from the show for hurling the word -- tells TMZ ... "I deeply regret my insensitive comment and want to humbly apologize to anybody I hurt or offended by my thoughtlessness. My choice of words was wrong, and I take full responsibility for what I said."

She adds, "I am committed to listening to the voices of those affected and will work toward making amends. As a woman of color and the mother of two black children, I want to make it clear that my use of that word was not in any way racially driven."

Erica ends with this ... "That said, I do understand the gravity of what I said and want to use my platform to promote inclusivity and equality."

Worth noting, Erica identifies as an Afro-Latina -- with Dominican and Puerto Rican roots.

You'll recall ... Erica was cut loose from 'L&HH: Atlanta' after MTV aired the controversial episode in question -- in which EM and Spice got into a heated argument, which erupted into a fight ... and where Erica invoked the term "monkey" while she was lashing out.

That ugly moment came on the heels of yet another ... an Atlanta-area arrest that saw Erica get booked on a number of charges, including allegedly attacking a police officer.

Now that Erica's apologized, do you think she should be allowed back on 'L&HH'? Sound off by answering the question in our game below.

Diana Ross had no hesitations in joining Beyoncé onstage for some birthday fun ... and we're told the so-called shade Lionel Richie threw at Diana was simply a friend joking around.

Sources close to Diana tell TMZ ... the legendary singer was honored to sing "Happy Birthday" to Bey at her packed SoFi Stadium concert last week, adding she simply was returning the favor.

You might recall, Beyoncé jumped on the mic a few years ago to do the honors at Diana's 75th birthday bash ... so it was only fitting for Ms. Ross to be the one selected to grace the stage for Bey's bday concert.

As for Lionel's apparent anger over Diana's Bey-day serenade ... sources with direct knowledge tell us he was just joking around when he went off about it during one of his concerts.

If ya haven't seen it, Lionel said he's been trying for 3 decades to get Diana to sing their classic duet "Endless Love" live on stage, but she's shot him down every time.

He got a laugh from the crowd when he groused ... Diana opting to sing for Beyonce "pissed me off!"

Some folks online weren't sure if that was real rage or not, but we're told it certainly wasn't -- he's got lots of love for Diana and the 2 have a history of publicly jabbing at each other like that.

Ray J is taking his "On Top" motto to a new level ... offering up a whopping $25K prize to the best bull-riding cowgirl in Northern California!!!

Sources close to Ray tell TMZ Hip Hop the contest will go down this Saturday at Westwood in San Francisco as part of the promotion for his new collab "On Top" with Bobby Brackins and P-Lo.

The competition is open to non-professional female riders dressed in rodeo-style gear and will be held from 10 pm - 12 am ... plenty of time to get a decent ride in.

J. Espinosa will be spinning on the turntables and the Bay Area's own Too Short will also be in the building ... always guaranteed to be the life of the party!!!

To add more pay to the oola, Ray is also launching a 30-day #OnTopChallenge on TikTok where he'll be giving away $100 to the user with the best creative dance!!!

Expect the band to be in full party mode ... we're told the bull-riding event will predate Bobby's birthday celebration at Apt 200 in Los Angeles that Thursday and they're also putting together special edition merch to pump the song as well.

A$AP Rocky's attorney went way too far in his defense of the rapper after his 2021 shooting incident ... at least according to the alleged victim, A$AP Relli, who's now suing Rocky and his high-powered attorney, Joe Tacopina.

According to docs, obtained by TMZ, Relli claims Tacopina went on a press campaign after he was allegedly shot by A$AP Rocky .... and Relli was defamed in the process.

Relli claims he was painted by Tacopina in the media as a liar, a money grabber, and an extortionist  ... and he believes this was all the direction of A$AP Rocky.

The suit claims Tacopina spoke to various outlets, including TMZ ... in one story, Tacopina said, "Rocky didn't commit a crime. It was an extortion attempt by a former associate, who threatened to make false, criminal accusations if Rocky didn't pay him."

Relli claims as a result of the alleged attack on him, he received several death threats and has been the subject of ridicule. He's asking for unspecified damages.

As for Rocky ... his case is still pending. He has pled not guilty.

Coco Gauff es la nueva campeona del US Open y todavía tiene una enorme sonrisa luego de ganar el torneo. Sin embargo, no va a celebrar con una gran fiesta, sólo quiere dormir largo y tendido.

La profesional de 19 años parecía estar de buen humor el lunes, saliendo de su habitación de hotel de Nueva York pocos días después de ganar el oro en el gran evento de este año. Coco se detuvo para tomarse una foto con un fan mientras subía a un carro con un peluche de Miles Morales en la mano.

Por supuesto, a Coco le preguntaron por sus planes para después de ganar, pero lo único que tenía en mente era volver a casa y meterse en la cama para dormir un poco. Parece una idea perfecta.

Coco ha estado en la cancha de tenis durante años y se convirtió en profesional en 2018. Es la número 3 del mundo en tenis individual y la número 1 en dobles; en otras palabras, la gran victoria de este fin de semana se hizo esperar para la adolescente.

Como informamos, Coco tuvo su partido de semifinales retrasado por un manifestante que pegó sus pies descalzos al suelo de hormigón del estadio. Tomó cerca de 49 minutos para que Coco pudiera continuar su partido.

Incluso contó con el apoyo de Justin y Hailey Bieber en la tercera ronda, quienes la animaban desde sus palcos. Después del partido Coco declaró a un periodista de ESPN: "Vi quién estaba allí y pensé: "No puedo perder delante de Justin Bieber'".

US Open champ Coco Gauff still has a massive grin on her face after winning the big tourney, but she won't be celebrating with a huge bash ... just a bunch of zzzz's.

The 19-year-old pro seemed to be in a great mood Monday, stepping out of her NYC hotel room just days after striking gold at this year's big event. Coco stopped to snap a pic with a fan while jumping in a waiting car with a Miles Morales plush in her hand.

Of course, Coco was asked about her post-win plans, but the only thing on her mind is heading home and climbing in bed for some sleep ... sounds like a perfect idea.

Coco's been on the tennis court for years and turned pro back in 2018. She's ranked number 3 in the world in singles tennis and number 1 in doubles -- in other words, this weekend's big win was a long time coming for the teenager.

As we reported, Coco had her semifinal match delayed by a protestor who glued his bare feet to the concrete floor of the stadium ... taking about 49 minutes of attention to remove him before Coco could continue her match.

She even had some serious support from Justin and Hailey Bieber in the 3rd round, who were cheering her on from their box seats. After that match, Coco told an ESPN reporter, "I definitely saw who was there. I thought, 'I cannot lose in front of Justin Bieber.'"

Doja Cat is one of hip hop's saviors, at least on the commercial front ... her track, "Paint the Town Red" is the culture's first Billboard No. 1 song in over a year!!!

The bouncy demon-praising bop topped the Billboard Hot 100 Monday, marking the first rap song since Nicki Minaj's "Super Freaky Girl" made history debuting at the top of the chart in August 2022.

Doja and Nicki's collab "Say So" also hit number one back in 2020.

Artists can only dream of having this type of momentum going into an album release, especially when the stakes are high.

Doja's 4th album "Scarlet" drops on September 22 ... the same day as Drake's "For My Dogs." The battle for the audience's eardrums will be intense!!!

Doja appears to have partied enough for the Hot 100 milestone and then some ... burning up NYFW events with her future tour mates Ice Spice and Doechii last night.

Harry Styles is not giving up on summer, and who would with a body like that?!?

The 29-year-old was topless, tatted and remarkably ripped as he dove into a duck pond in England ... yes, apparently that's a thing over there.

Although Harry's never had trouble gettin' dates, he's clearly stepped up his game in the physique dept. We're told he's lately been into pilates, but judging from the pics, he's also lifting ... a lot.

Someone who wasn't in the water with HS was his rumored new girlfriend, actress Taylor Russell. You'll recall, she was getting the VIP treatment at his Vienna concert earlier this year, chilling in an exclusive spot while he performed.

The 2 were spotted getting handsy weeks later at press night for her London play, "The Effect" ... and we were told ended up in the back of the same car, driving off together later in the night.

Harry Styles no quiere soltar el verano y, ¿quién lo haría con un cuerpo así?

Al joven de 29 años se lo vio sin polera, tatuado y notablemente tonificado mientras se zambullía en un estanque de patos en Inglaterra. Sí, al parecer eso es posible por allá.

Aunque Harry nunca ha tenido problemas para conseguir citas, está claro que ha mejorado en su aspecto físico. Nos han dicho que ha estado practicando pilates últimamente, pero a juzgar por las fotos, también ha estado levantando... mucho peso.

Alguien que no estaba en el agua con Harry es su rumoreada nueva novia, la actriz Taylor Russell. Como recordarán, Taylor fue tratada como asistente VIP en su concierto de Viena a principios de este año, poniéndose cómoda en un lugar exclusivo mientras él actuaba.

Semanas después, los dos fueron vistos muy acaramelados en la noche de prensa de la obra de teatro "The Effect" en Londres, y nos dijeron que ambos terminaron juntos en la parte trasera del mismo coche, conduciendo en la noche horas más tarde.

Tink and Hitmaka's longtime artist/producer working relationship erupted in violence in tropical Cancun, of all places ... with the R&B songstress admitting to throwing blows on sight!!!

According to Tink, Hitmaka's been dodging her for months and also demanded $2 million from her after disclosing she wanted to work on her next project without him ... and those tensions boiled over when they happened to pop up at the same Mexican resort over the weekend.

Hitmaka was celebrating his 38th birthday on Saturday and Tink says she was in Cancun to celebrate her assistant's birthday, but things came to a head when she claims she spotted Hitmaka there ... enjoying the moment with several other women.

The two have been making music in a semi-exclusive relationship for the better part of the year and Tink admits her emotions (and perhaps a bit of booze) got the best of her and she attacked Hitmaka in a fit of rage ... which he claims to have captured on his phone.

He posted a screenshot of Tink allegedly flying off the handle, which had some fans calling him a snitch.

Despite being on the receiving end of Tink's anger, Hitmaka downplayed the incident and says he understands her disappointment with seeing him move on, but still maintains they're cool and will resume rolling out the next album.

That's still a big TBD ... after cooling her jets a bit, Tink returned to IG, and explained feeling royally disrespected after not getting a response to texts she'd sent Hitmaka, and isn't sure of their future.

Un grupo de comunistas hicieron lo que Jason Aldean dijo que "no se debe hacer en un pueblo pequeño", solo que aquí lo hicieron en una gran ciudad... y recibieron el castigo de la ley.

Más de 20 miembros del Revolution Club de Chicago —autodenominados comunistas— organizaron una protesta el sábado fuera del concierto de Jason en Chicago, donde marcharon, cantaron y quemaron banderas. Sí, prendieron fuego a la Vieja Gloria, un par de veces de hecho.

Varios de ellos se manifestaron específicamente contra Jason, diciendo que no tenían miedo de intentar cualquier cosa en cualquier lugar. Lo llamaron "pedazo de mierda fascista". Un tipo que estaba en un megáfono también gritó: "Lo intentaremos en una gran ciudad. Y lo haremos delante de tu concierto".

La manifestación parecía ser anti-Jason, pero también anti-América. Uno de los cánticos incluía la frase: "A la mier... los EE.UU. y todo su poder", entre otros comentarios despectivos.

Finalmente aparecieron varios agentes de la policía de Chicago y les dijeron que se marcharan, anunciando que su reunión era ilegal y que estaban alterando el orden público. Al parecer, el grupo se dispersó poco después sin más incidentes así que no hubo detenciones.

Es evidente que la polémica suscitada por la exitosa canción de Jason "Try That In a Small Town" sigue resonando en todo el país, incluso semanas después. Y, sin embargo, sigue yendo a un montón de grandes ciudades y atrayendo a una multitud.
