Britney compartió un vídeo de una niña pequeña horneando algo, mientras 2 niñas mayores le rompen los huevos en la frente y luego estallan en carcajadas.

Ella dijo que se relaciona con el video en un nivel oscuro. "Me han hecho cosas parecidas, así que lo veo con otros ojos". "La mayor parte de mi conflicto interior con la gente es saber que el enemigo está justo enfrente de mí, pero me quedé con ellos porque los amaba". Soy extremadamente sensible a que alguien se ría de alguien o intimide de alguna manera"

Ella continúa: "Hay tantas cosas que he mantenido en privado que han pasado conmigo personalmente y tal vez un día pueda dejar que la gente sepa... hasta entonces, hay 3 lados de cada historia, tu lado, mi lado y la verdad. El niño es la confianza, la chica del medio es la verdad... ¡¡¡Míralo AHORA sin sonido!!!"

Aunque no menciona específicamente a su familia, es bastante fácil conectar los puntos. "El enemigo está justo en frente de mí, pero me quedé con ellos porque los amaba".

El libro de Britney saldrá a la venta el próximo mes y en base a sus últimas palabras, no parece que la relación entre ella y su familia se haya reparado.

Britney Spears delivered a not-so-cryptic message to her fans, more than suggesting her book will be a scorcher about family betrayal.

Britney shared a vid of a little girl baking something, as 2 older girls crack eggs on her forehead, then bust into laughter.

She said she relates to the video on a dark level ... "similar things have been done to me so I look at this with different eyes !!! Most of my inner conflict with people is knowing the enemy is right in front of me but I kept them because I loved them !!! I'm extremely sensitive to anybody laughing at someone or bullying in any way !!!"

She goes on ... "There's so much I've kept private that's gone on with me personally and maybe one day I can let people know ... until then, there's 3 sides to every story !!! Your side, my side and the truth !!! The child within is the trust, the girl in the middle is the truth ... watch it NOW with no sound !!!"

Although she doesn't specifically mention her family, it's pretty easy to connect the dots ... "The enemy is right in front of me but I kept them because I loved them."

Britney's book is due out next month, and based on her latest words, it does not seem like the relationship between her and her family has been repaired.

Taylor Swift se mantiene ocupada y con una vida socal envidiable. Estuvo compartiendo recientemente con algunos de los nombres más grandes del cine actual.

La estrella del pop cenó en Nueva York el lunes por la noche en un restaurante italiano en NoHo con otras 3 mujeres increíblemente famosas en el negocio (el negocio del cine específicamente). Entre las estrellas con las que cenó se encontraban Laura Dern, Zoë Kravitz y la directora de "Barbie" Greta Gerwig.

Sin duda un grupo de damas poderosas, pero es fascinante ver TayTay mezclarse con las mujeres que les gusta estar delante y detrás de la cámara, sobre todo cuando se trata de Greta, quien tiene la película más importante del año. El hecho de que se reúnan te hace dudar.

El hecho es que "Barbie" ha estado de moda desde hace meses y ha habido un montón de especulaciones acerca de una secuela, aunque nada oficial se ha anunciado todavía.

Gerwig ha dicho que estaría abierta a ello pero el hecho de que la segunda parte no tenga luz verde en este momento es sorprendente teniendo en cuenta lo mucho que ha generado en ganancias. Suponiendo que Warner quiera seguir adelante con otro capítulo, y es casi seguro que sí, hay que preguntarse cómo superarían a la primera.

Una forma de conseguirlo sería traer a Taylor a bordo y hacer que protagonizara la película; eso, y quizás incluso que contribuyera a otra banda sonora. Dua Lipa pudo hacerlo la primera vez (actuación/música para "Barbie") y resultó ser un gran éxito.

Teniendo en cuenta que Taylor se siente muy identificada con la marca Barbie tal y como es, esto podría dar como resultado una gran colaboración. Además, hay que tener en cuenta que Taylor está muy metida en el mundo del cine, tanto en la interpretación como en la dirección.

Taylor Swift is looking more big picture-esqe these days -- and you can tell by the company she keeps ... in this case, chowing down with some of the biggest names in movies.

The pop star grabbed dinner in NYC Monday night -- hitting up an Italian joint in NoHo with 3 other incredibly famous women in the biz ... the film biz, specifically. Among the stars she was dining with ... Laura Dern, Zoë Kravitz and "Barbie" director Greta Gerwig.

It's certainly a power crew of ladies -- but it's fascinating to see TayTay mingling with women who like to get in front of and behind the camera ... especially when it comes to Greta, who's got the biggest flick of the year. Them getting together kinda makes you wonder.

Fact is, "Barbie" has been all the rage for months now ... and there's been a lot of speculation about a sequel -- although nothing official has been announced just yet.

Gerwig has said she'd be open to it ... but the fact part 2 isn't greenlit at this point is shocking considering how much $$$ it's made. Assuming WB wants to proceed with another chapter -- and they almost certainly do -- ya gotta wonder how they'd outdo the OG.

One way to potentially do that would be to bring Taylor on board and have her star in the film -- that, and maybe even have her contribute to another soundtrack. Dua Lipa got to do that the first time around (acting/music for 'Barbie') and it turned out to be a huge hit.

Seeing how Taylor naturally feels very on-brand for Barbie as is ... a linking up like this definitely gets the wheels turning on a would-be collab. Plus, keep in mind -- Taylor is very much so dabbling in filmmaking these days ... both in an acting capacity and directing.

Howie Dorough says he'd love to have the Backstreet Boys tour with *NSYNC -- but says Justin, JC and co. deserve their own spotlight first ... assuming they actually want that.

We got the BB member Monday at LAX, and asked about all the speculation over a possible prolonged reunion for the *NSYNC fellas ... possibly including a throwback tour, which fans really seem to want at this point.

Howie hits us with a pretty optimistic take, saying he'd be more than open to co-headlining with *NSYNC ... he'd actually welcome it, and he's sure the other Backstreet Boys would too.

While many might've assumed there's a rivalry between the 2 groups ... there isn't, according to HD. He says a lot of them are actually pretty good friends -- and it sounds like they might have even talked about this once or twice over the years.

Now that *NSYNC is putting out a new song -- for Justin Timberlake's latest 'Trolls' movie -- that would-be rekindling is at a fever pitch ... and Howie says that has to be respected.

In other words, if any *NSYNC/Backstreet Boys tour is in the stars -- and there's no guarantee it is -- he says the "Bye Bye Bye" guys should get a bite at the apple first, because there's major interest in them right now. Relevancy rules!

As we've reported .... JC and Lance Bass left the door open for a potential reunion tour, but nobody's saying it's definitely going to happen -- and until they do, everyone's probably better off cooling their jets instead of getting their hopes up.

Enjoy the new *NSYNC song ... and let's just take it one day at a time. BB stans, included.

Fans of The Beatles could have some incredibly rare recordings in their collections ... if they have half a million to drop in an upcoming auction for the private tracks.

The big-ticket item is a collection of never-before-heard recordings from the iconic group, including band rehearsals at John Lennon's Kenwood home and even pieces of unreleased albums, all on 6 tapes. It's all expected to grab anywhere from $300,000 to $500,000.

The legendary tapes were obtained by a memorabilia collector named Phil from Charlotte, and he tells us he got the recordings 5 years ago from a man in India, who says he first secured them from Derek Taylor ... the group's former press officer who was often dubbed the "Fifth Beatle."

We're told Phil listened through all of it only once, so he wouldn't damage the tapes, but there are a ton of Beatles gems throughout -- including rehearsals for Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, which has things like animal sounds for "Good Morning Good Morning" and even John and Paul McCartney complaining about the heat.

That's not all, there are also recordings of George Harrison's unreleased album with The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, almost 2 hours of Yoko Ono's "Primal Scream Therapy" -- yeah, really -- and an unreleased collab album with Yoko and John.

There's also an extremely personal and revealing 45-minute interview where John questions Yoko's motives for being with him. It was recorded in 1969, the same year they got married.

Howie Dorough dice que le encantaría tener a los Backstreet Boys de gira con *NSYNC, pero dice que Justin, JC y compañía merecen su propio centro de atención en primer lugar, suponiendo que realmente quieren eso.

Nos encontramos con el miembro de los Backstreet el lunes en LAX y le preguntamos acerca de toda la especulación sobre una posible reunión prolongada de los compañeros de *NSYNC, la cual probablemente incluyenda una gira de regreso (algo que los fans realmente parecen querer en este punto)

Howie nos golpea con unas palabras bastante optimistas, diciendo que estaría más que abierto a co-encabezar con *NSYNC. De verdad le daría le gustaría y está seguro de que los otros Backstreet Boys también lo harían.

Mientras que muchos podrían haber asumido que hay rivalidad entre los 2 grupos, segun HD no la hay. Él dice que muchos de ellos son en realidad muy buenos amigos y suena como que incluso podría haber hablado de esto una vez o dos veces a lo largo de los años.

Ahora que *NSYNC está sacando una nueva canción para la última película de Justin Timberlake 'Trolls', puede ser momento perfecto para impuslar a los chicos una vez más.

En otras palabras, si alguna gira de *NSYNC/Backstreet Boys está en las estrellas (y no hay garantía de que lo sea) dice que los chicos de "Bye Bye Bye" deben conseguir un bocado de la manzana en primer lugar, porque hay un gran interés en ellos en este momento. ¡La relevancia manda!

It seems like Blueface's street code is preventing law enforcement from putting together a case against his alleged assailant.

The L.A. County District Attorney's office tells TMZ Hip Hop ... the case has been rejected, for now, due to Blueface's lack of cooperation with the investigation. The video doesn't clearly show everything necessary to bring a criminal case, so, we're told investigators needed cooperation from witnesses to move forward.

According to docs, Blueface refused to answer any of the responding officer's questions, refused to provide his ID and even rejected medical aid ... though he quickly posted his bloody injury on social media, assuring fans he was good.

As we previously told you, Brandon Henrysnell had turned himself in on August 24, and was booked for felony assault with a deadly weapon.

But, the case won't go any further ... as authorities reviewed the footage, and while it clearly shows an altercation, it's missing the key moment Brandon allegedly stabbed Blueface.

Los fans de The Beatles podrían tener algunas grabaciones increíblemente raras en sus colecciones si se atreven a asistir una subasta.

Se trata de una colección de grabaciones inéditas del emblemático grupo que incluye ensayos de la banda en la casa de John Lennon en Kenwood e incluso fragmentos de álbumes inéditos, todo ello en 6 cintas. Se espera que todo se lleve entre 300.000 y 500.000 dólares.

Las legendarias cintas fueron obtenidas por un coleccionista de recuerdos llamado Phil de Charlotte, y nos dice que consiguió las grabaciones hace 5 años de un hombre en la India que dice que primero las consiguió de Derek Taylor, el ex jefe de prensa del grupo que a menudo fue apodado el "Quinto Beatle."

Se nos dice que Phil escuchó todo una sola vez, para no dañar las cintas, pero hay una tonelada de joyas de los Beatles en todo - incluyendo ensayos para Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, que tiene cosas como sonidos de animales para "Good Morning Good Morning" e incluso John y Paul McCartney quejándose del calor.

Eso no es todo, también hay grabaciones del álbum inédito de George Harrison con The Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, casi 2 horas de "Primal Scream Therapy" de Yoko Ono -sí, de verdad- y un álbum inédito de colaboración con Yoko y John.

También hay una entrevista extremadamente personal y reveladora de 45 minutos en la que John cuestiona los motivos de Yoko para estar con él. Fue grabada en 1969, el mismo año en que se casaron.

Savage Garden lead singer Darren Hayes is ready to turn the page on his marriage -- after splitting up with his hubby, Richard Cullen, earlier this year ... he has now officially filed for divorce.

Hayes filed his dissolution docs Monday in Los Angeles, citing irreconcilable differences.

Darren and Richard have been together for a long time. They first got hitched way back in 2005, entered a civil partnership the year after ... and then got married again (here in the States) in 2013 to celebrate gay rights.

They have no children together, but presumably share a lot of other assets ... which will get divvied up as the divorce moves along.

Darren announced he and Richard were separating back in May, writing .... "After 17 years of marriage to the best person I have ever met, Richard and I have chosen to accept that our union has gently and beautifully come to rest. In honour of this realization, we separated earlier this year and have been supporting each other emotionally throughout this massive change in our lives."

He also addressed any speculation as to why they're going their separate ways, saying ... "Because people will ask, let me answer the ugly questions to get them out of the way forever - no, there's no scandal to report, no infidelity, guilty or third party."

Akademiks and Vic Mensa going tit for tat over Chicago's rap scene is one of hip hop's most viral beefs to date -- but they've both decided to bury the hatchet now, thanks to each's personal growth.

Vic and Ak dapped it up Monday for the latest installment of the "Off The Record" podcast ... and both expressed how they've developed admiration for one another.

Vic famously went at Ak's throat in 2017 over his coverage of Chicago drill rappers and the two continued to trade shots even up until several months ago.

Vic says his remarks over the years stemmed from a place of hurt ... after seeing his slain homie Tray 57 on Ak's "The War in Chiraq" YouTube channel.

For his part, Ak says he would've reported on the culture differently in hindsight, and also admitted ego prevented him from righting his wrongs.

Their conversation spiraled for more than 2 hours, and seems to spell the beginning of a fruitful partnership down the line!!!

J Balvin sabe cómo pasarlo bien, y se aseguró de que su novia disfrutara del mismo modo en su cumpleaños, ¡por lo que le organizó una fiesta sorpresa de lujo!

El artista colombiano alquiló una villa enorme, de más de 7.000 pies cuadrados, en el paseo marítimo de Miami Beach para celebrar el cumpleaños número 30 de su novia, Valentina Ferrer este domingo, que tuvo cerca de 35 invitados, incluyendo a su familia.

Nos dicen sus padres, hermanos y otros miembros de la familia volaron desde Argentina para estar el gran día. Su hijo de 2 años, Río, también estuvo presente, pero no se quedó disfrutando hasta las tantas de la noche, como el resto de ellos.

La comida fue otro de los platos fuertes. J Balvin contrató a un chef colombiano que preparó un menú de carnes argentinas. También hubo un DJ, que estuvo marcando el ritmo durante toda la noche, pero sin hits de Jay Balvin, que se tomó la noche libre y no actuó.

¡Nos dicen que Valentina no tenía ni idea de la fiesta, por lo que fue un secreto súper bien guardado, sobre todo que su familia estuviera presente!

Para su información, este fue un fin de semana de torbellino para la pareja, quien también estuvo disfrutando de la Copa NASCAR Series en Tennessee el sábado, donde J lanzó su zapatilla en colaboración con Nike Jordan, antes de volar a Miami.

J Balvin knows how to have a good time ... and he made sure his model GF was doin' the same for her birthday, which is why he threw her a luxurious surprise party!

The Colombian artist rented out a massive villa -- over 7,000 square feet -- on the Miami Beach waterfront for his boo, Valentina Ferrer's, 30th bday Sunday night ... with about 35 people showing up to celebrate, including her family.

We're told he flew her parents, siblings and other family members out from Argentina for the big day -- their 2-year-old son, Rio, was also in attendance but likely didn't party as hard as the rest of them.

The food was another highlight ... J Balvin hired a private chef from Colombia who put together a spread of Argentinian meats to enjoy. There was also a DJ bumping beats throughout the night  -- and no, JB unfortunately took the night off and didn't perform.

We're told Valentina had no idea about the party, so it was a well-kept secret ... especially getting her whole fam to show up!

FYI, it was a whirlwind weekend for the couple ... they were enjoying the NASCAR Cup Series in Tennessee Saturday where J launched his shoe collab with Nike Jordan before jetting over to Miami.

Polo G's generosity is shining through on the set of his latest music video, where he's hooking up cast members with a stack of cash after getting inspired by their individual journeys.

Sources close to the situation tell TMZ Hip Hop ... Polo handed off $10,000 to each of the individuals who helped make his "Barely Holdin' On" music video last month a reality.

The gripping video showcases Diana, an organ transplant survivor, Bobbi, a single mother, Deon, a substance abuse survivor and Willie, a 12-year-old gunshot victim-turned-paraplegic hooper -- all overcoming their individual obstacles, and Polo's donation will undoubtedly provide an added boost!!!

"Barely Holdin' On" director SixTwentySix's Arrad tells us the moment was no publicity stunt, and more about Polo just feeling it in the moment -- "It was an emotional roller coaster for many. Nobody was expecting to get the cash at the end. It was a huge surprise and everyone was in complete denial! Polo was very generous and wanted to make sure he could thank each and every person - he expressed his gratitude multiple times and gave them all the cash at the end. It was extremely nice and heartwarming of him."

The track was supposed to be on Polo's 4th studio album, "Hood Poet," but the album has since been delayed due to his pending legal troubles.

As we previously reported, Polo is facing felony gun possession charges after the LAPD conducted an August raid on his home.

LeBron James is giving his personal review of Diddy's new project ... and it's safe to say the rap mogul got the King's approval -- 'cause Bron actually took the time to learn the lyrics!!

Well ... some of them.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar is infamous for his backseat jam sessions whenever new music drops ... and it was only a matter of time before he gave his two cents on the Bad Boy founder's latest effort -- "The Love Album: Off the Grid," which dropped last week.

Bron went through three of his favorite tracks -- "Pick Up," "It Belongs To You," and "Brought My Love" ... vibin' out as each tune blasted in his Maybach.

James even tried his best Jacquees-esque falsetto at one point ... singing along until a fast-cadenced part of the song seemed to catch him off-guard.

The four-time champ rolled with the punches, though ... pretending to crush each word. In reality, it was more like the time he tried to do karaoke to a 6lack song.

"Man O Man!!!!!!!," James captioned his vid ... calling the project "an ABSOLUTE FKN STONE COLD VIBE!!!!!"

Ariana Grande is following in her boyfriend Ethan Slater's footsteps ... because she's also officially filed for divorce from her husband of 2 years, Dalton Gomez, and he's filed too.

Ariana's lawyer, Laura Wasser, filed first Monday ... citing the boilerplate "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for divorce.

Dalton immediately followed suit, filing his response in a clearly-coordinated effort. We're told everything was worked out before going to the courthouse. Sources say Ariana will cut Dalton a check, and that will be that.

BTW ... they had a prenup. The date of separation is February 20, 2023.

As for why it took so long between the date of separation and the divorce filings, a source with direct knowledge tells us the two took their time to iron out details and settle. Our source says there are no hard feelings ..."they’ve been really caring and respectful of one another every step of this process."

As we reported, Ariana began dating her "Wicked" costar, Ethan Slater, after splitting with Dalton while filming the flick overseas ... a bombshell that sent fans wild.

Since then, Ethan's filed for divorce from his wife, Lilly Jay. The 2 were high school sweethearts and tied the knot in 2018. They also share a kid together, whom they welcomed last year.

Sources also told us Ethan "desperately" wants to co-parent their kid in the midst of their divorce ... and both of them have apparently agreed.

Neither Ariana or Dalton have commented publicly on their divorce.
