7:31 AM PT -- Jason Alexander's got a bad case of revisionist history, at least when it comes to how sober he and Britney Spears were on their wedding day. Eight years after the ceremony he told ABC News they'd been drinking and had "party favors."

When asked if he meant drugs, he coyly pointed out alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes are all drugs. Point is, they were far from sober, and Britney fans are calling him out for lying.

Jason Alexander, Britney Spears' ex-husband, is clapping back at her claim she only married him because she was drunk and bored ... instead, he insists it was true, sober love.

Jason, who was married to Britney for a whopping 55 hours in 2004 before getting an annulment, tells TMZ ... readers shouldn't believe a word Britney says about their marriage in her new memoir.

In "The Woman In Me," Britney says she and Jason "got sh**faced" before tying the knot early one morning in Las Vegas back in January '04 ... adding, "People have asked me if I loved him. To be clear: he and I were not in love"

Britney also writes, "I was just honestly very drunk -- and probably, in a more general sense at that time in my life, very bored."

JA says that's BS because they were absolutely in love and weren't boozing -- which, btw, is exactly how their wedding officiant described the couple in a previous interview.

Jason says they've been friends since childhood, and he still cares for and loves her -- however, he adds, he'd never buy her memoir, and would only accept a copy if it was signed ... and, even then, he admits he'd probably "sell it to the highest bidder."

So much for the love!

Britney's revealed a ton of bombshells in the book ... and Jason says, in his opinion, Britney's abortion from her pregnancy with Justin Timberlake was a "horrible decision." Jason believes the two would've had enough money to raise a kid and get help as well.

He also weighed in on Britney's rationale for her nude photo posts ... saying he sees it as "childish behavior" from a mother, but he believes Justin cheated, and then broke up with Brit in response to her cheating. That's his 2 cents, anyway.

7:31 AM PT -- Jason Alexander no tiene muy buenos recuerdos de lo que pasó ese día con Britney, al menos cuando se trata de recordar cuán sobrios estaban el día de su boda. Ocho años después de la ceremonia, Alexander dijo a ABC News que habían estado bebiendo y que tenían "recuerdos de la fiesta".

Cuando le preguntaron si se refería a drogas, señaló tímidamente que el alcohol, la cafeína y los cigarrillos son drogas. La cuestión es que estaban lejos de estar sobrios y los fans de Britney le están llamando la atención por mentir.

El ex marido de Britney Spears, Jason Alexander, ha negado que se casara con él porque estaba borracha y aburrida, él dice que ella no estaba borracha y que estaban enamorados.

Jason, que estuvo casado con Britney por solo 55 horas en 2004, le dice a TMZ que los lectores no deben creer una sola palabra de lo que Britney dice acerca de su matrimonio en su nuevo libro de memorias.

En "The Woman In Me", Britney dice que ella y Jason "se emborracharon" antes de casarse una mañana temprano en Las Vegas en enero de 2004 y añade: "La gente me ha preguntado si lo amaba. Para ser claros: él y yo no estábamos enamorados".

Britney también escribe: "Honestamente estaba muy borracha y probablemente, en ese momento de mi vida, muy aburrida".

Jason dice que eso es mentira porque estaban absolutamente enamorados y no estaban bebiendo exactamente lo que su oficiante de la boda describió en una entrevista anterior.

Él dice que han sido amigos desde la infancia y todavía se preocupa por ella y la ama.

Mientras que Jason dice que todavía apoya a Britney, nos dice que nunca compraría su libro y solo aceptaría una copia de sus memorias si estuviera firmada, así al menos podría venderla "al mejor postor".

Britney ha revelado una tonelada de polémicas en el libro y Jason dice que el aborto de Britney de su embarazo con Justin Timberlake fue una "decisión horrible", en parte porque "mataron a un bebé".

Britney Spears está en la luna por el espectacular éxito de su libro de memorias "The Woman in Me" y corrió a sus redes sociales para agradecerle a sus millones de fans por ayudarla a batir los récords.

La cantante utilizó su cuenta de Instagram el martes por la noche, el mismo día que su libro salió a la venta, para compartir su emoción: "Mi libro es el libro de memorias de celebridades más vendido en la historia y es solo el día 1!!!"

La estrella del pop agradeció el apoyo de sus fans con justa razón. Desde su debut, el libro está ubicado en los primeros lugares de los más vendidos, tanto de Amazon como de Barnes and Noble's. Aún no ha aparecido en la lista de los más vendidos del New York Times, al menos por ahora.

Como ustedes bien saben, Brit dejó un montón de jugosos detalles sobre su pasado en las páginas de su libro de memorias. Habló de su relación con Justin Timberlake e incluso contó que tuvo un aborto a instancias de él.

Britney Spears is over the moon over the spectacular success of her tell-all memoir, "The Woman in Me" ... and she jumped online to thank her millions of fans for their help in breaking records.

The singer hopped on Instagram Tuesday night -- the same day her book dropped -- to share her excitement ... "My book is the highest selling celebrity memoir in history and it’s only day 1 !!!"

She went on to thank the fans for their support, with good reason ... the book's sitting atop both Amazon and Barnes and Noble's best sellers lists since it debuted. It hasn't shown up on the New York Times Best Sellers List ... at least not yet.

As you know, Brit left a lot of juicy details about her past on the pages of her memoir ... dishing about her rocky relationship with Justin Timberlake -- claiming she had an abortion at his behest.

She also talked about her conservatorship, left a glowing review of her ex, Sam Asghari, and wrote about how her former hubby Jason Alexander "got sh**faced" before getting married in 2004 -- something Jason told us was total BS.

Britney Spears unveils loads of crazy stories in her new memoir, many of which went down in the mid-2000s ... a tumultuous time when she lived in this Bev Hills mansion that became infamous the night she was committed.

Her spacious former pad is located in a gated community called The Summit, with the roughly 7,500-square-foot home even being considered "paparazzi-proof" because of how exclusive it is.

It's got some sweet perks like a home theater, chef's kitchen, saltwater swimming pool, jacuzzi and tons of backyard space.

Britney moved into the bougie pad in 2007 -- not long after filing for divorce from her ex, Kevin Federline -- and she was still living here when she melted down in early 2008 and was placed on a mental health hold.

You'll recall, an ambulance raced to the home and paramedics strapped Britney to a stretcher ... removing her as photographers swarmed, and TV helicopters hovered above to get shots.

Brit was taken to Cedars-Sinai for treatment.

As we reported, she first listed the home in 2008 with Tomer Fridman of Compass ... and ended up selling the place in 2012 for $4,253,000 -- more than $1 million above the original asking price. We were told she got multiple offers for the home, too.

Sources added she was getting out of there and moving in with her then-fiance, Jason Trawick.

Britney's mansion sold again in 2021 -- this time by "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles" stars Josh and Matt Altman -- when it went for $6.1M.

Britney Spears desvela un montón de historias locas en su nuevo libro de memorias, muchas de las cuales tuvieron lugar a mediados de los 2000s. Una época tumultuosa en la que vivió en esta mansión de Beverly Hills que se hizo tristemente célebre la noche en que fue internada.

El espacioso lugar se encuentra en una comunidad cerrada llamada La Cumbre, con la casa de aproximadamente 7.500 pies cuadrados, incluso se considera "a prueba de paparazzi" debido a lo exclusivo que es.

Tiene algunas ventajas como un cine en casa, cocina de chef, piscina de agua salada, jacuzzi y un montón de espacio en el patio trasero.

Britney se trasladó del lugar en 2007, no mucho después de solicitar el divorcio de su ex, Kevin Federline. Todavía estaba viviendo aquí cuando colapsó a principios de 2008 y fue internada en un hospital de salud mental.

Como se recordará, una ambulancia acudió a la casa y los paramédicos ataron a Britney a una camilla, sacándola mientras los fotógrafos se volvían locos y los helicópteros de televisión sobrevolaban para tomar imágenes.

Britney fue llevada al Cedars-Sinai para recibir tratamiento.

Como informamos, ella terminó vendiendo el lugar en 2012 por $4.253.000, más de $1 millón por encima del precio de venta original. Nos dijeron que tenía múltiples ofertas por el lugar.

Las fuentes añadieron que ella estaba saliendo de allí para mudarse con su entonces prometido, Jason Trawick.

La mansión de Britney se vendió de nuevo en 2021, esta vez por las estrellas Josh y Matt Altman de "Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles", por $ 6.1M.

LeBron James pulled out all the stops for his first fashion statement of the 2023-24 season ... rocking over $28,000 worth of Louis Vuitton for opening night!!

King James -- who is entering his 21st season -- clearly wanted to come up with a special look for the Los Angeles Lakers opening game against the Denver Nuggets at Ball Arena ... and he certainly didn't disappoint.

The 19-time All-Star forward is covered in Louis V ... from the $5k damoflage tweed chic collarless jacket and $1,250 pants to the $1,220 LV checker derby kicks.

He didn't stop there -- the Speedy Bandouliere 40 he's holding comes with an $11k price tag, and the briefcase will set the Average Joe back another $9,500.

So yeah, Bron's whole look is fit for a king.

BTW, some of those pieces LBJ is wearing are from Pharrell's men's Spring-Summer 2024 collection. The famous producer/rapper became the high-end brand's new men's creative director in February ... and debuted his items in Paris this summer.

James wasn't the only player showing up in style on Tuesday -- Michael Porter Jr. wore a signed Peyton Manning Broncos jersey ... and Peyton Watson was reppin' Deion Sanders with his own autographed "Coach Prime" gear.

High flyer Aaron Gordon also put his interesting taste on display ... going with a sleeveless burgundy blazer and shorts.

As for James' look ... anyone who wants to get their hands on the same items will have to wait just a bit -- pre-order sales start the first week of December.

LeBron James no escatimó esfuerzos para hacer su primera declaración de moda de la temporada 2023-24, luciendo más de $ 28.000 de Louis Vuitton para la noche de apertura.

King James, que está jugando su 21ª temporada, claramente quería llegar con un look especial para el partido inaugural de Los Angeles Lakers contra los Denver Nuggets en el Ball Arena, y ciertamente no decepcionó.

El delantero y 19 veces All-Star llegó cubierto de Louis V, desde la elegante chaqueta tweed de $5k sin cuello hasta los pantalaones de $1.250 pantalones y los zapatos de $1.220.

Y eso no fue todo, el Speedy Bandouliere 40 que está sosteniendo viene con una etiqueta de $11k y el maletín de otros $9.500.

Así que sí, el look de Bron es digno de un rey.

Por cierto, algunas de las piezas que lleva LeBron James corresponden a la colección masculina primavera-verano 2024 de Pharrell. El famoso productor y rapero se convirtió en el nuevo director creativo masculino de la marca de alta gama en febrero, y debutó con sus artículos en París este verano.

James no fue el único jugador que apareció con estilo este martes, Michael Porter Jr. llevaba una camiseta firmada Peyton Manning de los Broncos y Peyton Watson anduvo de representante de Deion Sanders con su propio atuendo autografiado de "Coach Prime".

Aaron Gordon también puso su interesante gusto en escena. El jugador usó un blazer sin mangas de color burdeos y pantalones cortos.

En cuanto al outfit de James, cualquiera quisiera tener esos mismos artículos en sus manos, pero tendremos que esperar un poco porque la pre-orden de venta comienza la primera semana de diciembre.

6:11 AM PT -- We're told Jaidyn Alexis is signed to BuVision for a single through a joint venture with Columbia Records ... in other words, expect her biggest record yet.

Blueface's fiancée Jaidyn Alexis is now in a position to make her own splash in the music biz ... inking a record deal.

The newly engaged couple popped champagne Tuesday and toasted the immediate future -- Jaidyn signed a deal with Columbia Records.

The rookie rapper signed several pages of contracts with Blue by her side. A rep for the label also confirmed with TMZ Hip Hop the move was no publicity stunt.

Jaidyn just started hitting the booth this year but has remained dedicated to the craft.

Following BF's Vegas arrest last year, Jaidyn bailed him out and was ordered straight to the studio to get her skills up.

Her last string of music videos have amassed several million views each ... just the type of motion a record label like Columbia is looking for in this social media era.

BF's other baby mom, Chrisean Rock has been making waves herself on the indie circuit, most notably with her viral "Mr. Take Ya B*tch" collab with Lil Mabu.

Congrats to Jaidyn.

Britney Spears says a brief run-in with ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake triggered a panic attack before her infamously bad 2007 MTV VMA performance.

Britney was set for a big return to the stage that night with her song "Gimme More" ... but was caught off guard when she saw JT at the show.

In her new memoir, "The Woman In Me," Britney recalls the interaction, writing ... "It had been a while since I'd seen him. Everything was going great in his world. He was at the top of his game in every way, and he had a lot of swagger. I was having a panic attack."

Britney says she "hated the way I looked" ... because "It was less than a year since I'd had my second baby in two years but everyone was acting like my not having six-pack abs was offensive."

What's more, Britney admits she hadn't rehearsed enough and knew the performance "was going to be bad." She says "nothing was going right" backstage ... claiming there were problems with her costume and hair extensions. She says she didn't sleep the night before, and was feeling dizzy.

Britney continued ... "I couldn’t believe I was going to have to go out onstage feeling the way I felt." She says she went out and tried her best, admitting it wasn't up to par for her.

She added ... "I could see myself on video throughout the auditorium while I performed; it was like looking at myself in a fun-house mirror."

JT, on the other hand, was on the other end of the spectrum in Britney's eyes.

She says, "Justin glided down the runway. He was flirting with girls in the audience, including one who turned around and arched her back, shaking her breasts as he sang to her."

Britney Spears dice que un breve encuentro con su ex novio Justin Timberlake le provocó un ataque de pánico antes de su infame actuación en los MTV VMAs de 2007.

Britney estaba lista para su gran regreso a los escenarios esa noche con su canción "Gimme More", pero fue sorprendida con la guardia baja cuando vio a Justin en el show.

En sus nuevas memorias, "The Woman In Me", Britney recuerda el momento: "Hacía tiempo que no lo veía. Todo iba genial en su mundo. Estaba en la cima de su juego en todos los sentidos y era fanfarrón. Me estaba dando un ataque de pánico".

Britney dice que "odiaba mi aspecto", porque "Hacía menos de un año había tenido mi segundo bebé en dos años y todo el mundo actuaba como si el hecho de que no tuviera abdominales de six-pack fuera ofensivo".

Es más, Britney admite que no había ensayado lo suficiente y sabía que la actuación "iba a ser mala". Dice que "nada iba bien" entre bastidores, afirmando que hubo problemas con su vestuario y sus extensiones de cabello. Ella dice que no durmió la noche anterior y se sentía mareada.

Britney continuó: "No podía creer que iba a tener que salir al escenario sintiéndome como me sentía". Ella dice que salió y lo intentó lo mejor que pudo, admitiendo que no estuvo a la altura.

Añadió: "Podía verme en video por todo el auditorio mientras actuaba; era como mirarme en un espejo de feria".

Justin, por su parte, estaba en el extremo opuesto de la situación.

Ella dice: "Justin se deslizaba por la pasarela. Coqueteaba con las chicas del público, incluida una que se dio la vuelta y arqueó la espalda, sacudiendo los pechos mientras él le cantaba".

Suge Knight's "Collect Call" podcast cohost Dave Mays thinks the incarcerated mogul's gotten a bad rap -- so he's helping him set the record straight once and for all!!!

TMZ Hip Hop chopped it up with the Breakbeat CEO this week and he assured us Suge's podcast commentary would be just as spicy as we'd expect it to be, but it won't be all sauce and no substance either.

They dropped the first episode on audio today, and as you can hear Suge's doing his fair share of reflection and deflecting -- in this case -- at his ex-Death Row Records henchman Mob James.

As the trailer revealed, Dave says Suge will be responding back to the commentaries from the likes of Master P, Wack 100, Warren G, Akon, and many more -- with dramatic flair.

Dave tells us they used a bit of AI to make the visuals pop. Remember, Suge's serving a 25-year sentence for manslaughter, so they did what they could to spruce up his current digs!!!

The Source Magazine founder doesn't feel Suge got a fair shake in his criminal trial due to his reputation at the time. He says their friendship dates back to the early '90s when Dr. Dre was set to take the world by storm with his classic debut album, "The Chronic."

Dave convinced Suge to let Dre do the iconic gun-to-the-head cover photo, which led on to more explosive moments with The Source ... like the infamous "come to Death Row" line at the '95 Source Awards.

Suge shared Death Row stories with TMZ Hip Hop earlier this year ... admitting the label had its fair share of rough patches too.

Just Blaze isn't letting his fellow producer Mark '45' King die in vain -- he's emptying out his hard drive of Mark's songs that never saw the light of day ... clearances be damned!!!

The veteran producer let off a pair of unreleased tracks Monday from the shelved Slaughterhouse "Glass House" album ... promising to leak even more music down the line to honor the recently deceased M45K.

The songs were originally slated to drop in the mid-2010s on Eminem's Shady Records, but various disputes caused the supergroup consisting of Joe Budden, KXNG Crooked, Joell Ortiz, and Royce Da 5'9 to break up shortly thereafter.

M45K passed away last week at the age of 62 ... boasting a catalog that blessed Jay-Z, Eminem, and Queen Latifah, among others with classic hits.

JB wants the world to know his friend left behind a legacy more impactful than any liner notes. As fans, we can't wait to hear what else he's kept stashed in the vault.

"Love and Hip Hop: Miami" star Prince Michael is apologizing for his explicit, and public, deep dive into his past relationship with Lori Harvey -- but he sounds very "sorry not sorry."

The outspoken reality star went into graphic detail on the "We in Miami" podcast earlier this week, sharing details like how he and Lori would Uber to each other's places for sex, and he claims they never used a condom.

Prince claims these trysts went down years ago when, as he puts it, Lori was thick and he clearly misses that 'ol thang.

On the creepier side ... he admitted trying to secretly record one of their hookup sessions but says there was no fooling Lori, who always suspected something. She was right!!!

Prince also took joy in allegedly dismantling Saweetie's family -- he claims he banged her mother and then got a DM from her husband accusing him of breaking up a happy home.

Lori's currently dating Damson Idris and was linked to Quavo, Future, Michael B. Jordan and Diddy in the past. Some fans aren't amused by his bedroom tea ... instead, they're destroying Prince for making his past with Lori public knowledge.

In his apology, he says he attempted to be funny with his responses ... but admits to failing at that, and blames his own insecurities for ruining things with Lori.

Lil Wayne is the latest celeb to dive head first into Major League Pickleball ... officially joining the Texas Ranchers' ownership group on Tuesday.

The Ranchers -- one of eight Major League Pickleball teams in the country -- announced the move minutes ago ... revealing Weezy will be teaming up with celebs and athletes like Micah Parsons, Zach Bryan, Myles Garrett, C.J. Stroud and more to help turn the squad into an MLP powerhouse.

According to the Texas franchise, Wayne will be coming on as a strategic advisor who will be tasked with drawing fans to the team ... as well as developing apparel collaborations. Wayne will also be helping to build pickleball courts in underprivileged areas.

"We're so excited to have Lil Wayne on board," Texas Ranchers CEO Evan Floersch said in a statement.

"From the get-go, we set out to build a team that, at its core, was centered in pop culture to support our mission of becoming one of the most recognized brands in American sports."

Floersch added, "Having Wayne's guidance, along with the rest of this incredible ownership group, emphasizes our stance on redefining sports ownership and being a positive force for good in our local pickleball community and beyond."

Lil Wayne was ecstatic to be jumping on board ... saying in a statement of his own, "Pickleball is the moment."

"I've enjoyed watching and couldn't pass up the opportunity to join this team of owners," the 41-year-old said.

Drake's 37th birthday party was one for the chemistry books, featuring "Breaking Bad" stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul as bartenders to mix up some special cocktails at Casadonna in Miami.

The two stars showed up floral shirts and all to Drake's Miami bash Monday ... which likely served as an easy promotion for Bryan and Aaron's Dos Hombres mezcal brand.

Of course, these guys have racked up Emmys, Golden Globes and AFI awards playing meth lab whizzes Walter White and Jesse Pinkman on the show … and their bartending skills look to also be on point.

As for the location, Drake held his bash at David Grutman and Noah Tepperberg's Casadonna, an Italian-inspired restaurant along the coastline. Drake was decked out in all-black, and his friends and fam teased him for having an abundance of mango juice -- instead of his usual go-to passionfruit.
