¡¡¡Nicki Minaj está muy recelosa de las redes sociales en estos días y dice que su corazón se rompe por la generación más joven, ya que toda su vida gira en torno a estar en línea!!!

La rapera de "Pink Friday 2" entró en detalles sobre su vida después de tener a su hijo hace unos años, y aunque admite que buscó a otras madres a través de las redes sociales para obtener consejos sobre cómo criar a los hijos... en general, piensa que el futuro se ve sombrío para la gente que vive en esas aplicaciones.

Nicki le dijo a Vogue: "Se ha vuelto tan fácil estar solo físicamente, los jóvenes pasan 12, 16 horas al día en sus habitaciones, en sus teléfonos, mirando todas esas falsas realidades, comparándose".

Continuó lamentándose por algunos de los últimos raperos de la generación más joven: "He visto artistas que se han ido demasiado pronto, y me pregunto si eso se podría haber evitado si hubieran tenido la oportunidad de hablar de lo que estaban viviendo".

Juice Wrld, Big Scarr y Mac Miller son algunos de los raperos de la generación Z, que han fallecido en los últimos años por sobredosis de drogas, además de Pop Smoke, XXXTentacion y King Von a causa de la violencia armada... y sus consecuencias han pesado en la cultura y sociedad, que intenta seguir adelante.

Nicki intervino en una gran trifulca en las redes sociales esta semana cuando convenció a Soulja Boy para que dejara de pelear con J. Cole, instruyendo al rapero de "Crank Dat" que se desconectara.

Una regla que ella aplica a su propia vida también, sobre todo cuando se trata de política.

T.I. says his joint album with Boosie Badazz is still coming ... when exactly though, is still up in the air with the moon, stars and rest of the cosmos!!!

We caught the "Rubber Band Man" rapper poppin' tags out on Rodeo Dr. ahead of his southern hip hop Grammy tribute performance alongside Boosie, and we had to get an update on their album.

Just like Boosie told us when he spoke to him this week, Tip promised nothing short of fireworks with his Grammy set, which also costarred Jeezy, but admitted he and Boosie's schedules have been too jampacked to pick up the collab where they left off.

The two rap heavyweights were on the verge of dropping the project at the top of 2023 ... but Boosie got the false impression T.I. was a snitch and went on an interview campaign about it.

After Tip and Boosie patched things up, Young Thug even used his limited social media privileges over the summer -- amid his own incarceration -- to plea for the album to drop, but still nada nearly 6 months later.

They're not capping about their busy schedules ... Boosie told us he's actively working on a new track with Sexyy Redd and an album with Daz Dillinger, in addition to a movie.

DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince reunited on stage for the first time in years last night in L.A. for the Grammys ... a full-circle moment for the legendary pair!!!

The dynamic duo performed a rendition of hits -- "Brand New Funk," "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It," and "Summertime" -- inside YouTube Theater in Inglewood as part of the Questlove-co-produced "Grammy Salute to 50 Years of Hip-Hop" special.

Will was reportedly taping "Bad Boys 4" when Quest tried to get him for the Grammys' celebration of hip hop's milestone birthday during the award show back in February -- but his hometown brethren pulled through this time around!!!

The Fresh Prince was decked out in a Phillies jumpsuit and allowed his world-famous DJ to showcase his skills on the wheels of steel -- much to all the rappers' delight in the audience.

Flavor Flav couldn't contain his excitement and surprised Will on stage with a bear hug as he was finishing up his "Summertime" performance ... and was soon followed by DJ D-Nice, Chance The Rapper and tons of other giants of hip hop!!!

Will and Jazzy Jeff won the first Grammy presented for Best Rap Performance with 1988's "Parents Don't Understand," and were also the first hip hop act to perform at the awards.

The special is set to air on Paramount+ in December and also features Queen Latifah, E-40, Rakim, Latto, Big Daddy Kane, DJ Quik, Too Short, Remy Ma, YG, GloRilla, Gunna and many more.

There's a Hollywood connection to a deeply disturbing crime ... the son of a powerful former Hollywood agent has been booked for murder after a woman's dismembered torso was found in a bag.

LAPD arrested 35-year-old Samuel Haskell Wednesday following the grisly discovery -- the bag containing the female victim's body was in a dumpster in Encino, CA. Haskell's wife, Mei Haskell, and her parents are currently missing. The coroner hasn't identified the victim yet ... but in the meantime, Haskell's being held on $2 million bail.

Haskell's father, Sam Haskell Sr., is currently the President of Magnolia Hill Productions -- the company behind several Dolly Parton specials -- including "Dolly Parton's Magic Mountain Christmas" and "Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors."

Haskell Sr. was once a powerful agent at William Morris Agency ... he retired as an agent in 2005, but during his 27-year-career represented the likes of Dolly, Whoopi Goldberg, Ray Romano, George Clooney, Martin Short, Kirstie Alley, Tony Danza, Debbie Allen, Kathie Lee Gifford ... and even King Charles' younger brother, Prince Edward.

As for the criminal investigation into Haskell's son, investigators are currently searching through Junior's Tarzana home where he lived with his wife and her parents Yanxiang Wang and Gaoshen Li.

So far, police say they've found evidence of a crime with blood in the home.

The dismembered torso was reportedly found Wednesday by a homeless person who was sifting through a strip mall dumpster. Haskell Jr. and Mei have 3 kids who are safe in the custody of L.A.'s DCFS.

El hijo de un poderoso ex agente de Hollywood ha sido fichado por asesinato luego de  que un torso desmembrado de una mujer fue encontrado en una bolsa.

La policía de Los Ángeles detuvo el miércoles a Samuel Haskell, de 35 años, tras el espeluznante descubrimiento. La bolsa que contenía el cuerpo de la víctima estaba en un contenedor de basura en Encino, California. La esposa de Haskell, Mei Haskell, y sus padres se encuentran en paradero desconocido. El forense no ha identificado a la víctima todavía, pero mientras tanto, Haskell está detenido bajo fianza de 2 millones de dólares.

El padre de Haskell, Sam Haskell Sr., es actualmente el Presidente de Magnolia Hill Productions  —la compañía detrás de varios especiales de Dolly Parton— incluyendo "Dolly Parton's Magic Mountain Christmas" y "Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors".

Haskell Sr. fue una vez un poderoso agente de William Morris Agency, se retiró como agente en 2005, pero durante sus 27 años de carrera representó a gente como Dolly, Whoopi Goldberg, Ray Romano, George Clooney, Martin Short, Kirstie Alley, Tony Danza, Debbie Allen, Kathie Lee Gifford, e incluso el hermano menor del rey Carlos, el príncipe Eduardo.

En cuanto a la investigación criminal sobre el hijo de Haskell, los investigadores están buscando actualmente a través de la casa de Tarzana de Junior, donde vivía con su esposa y sus padres Yanxiang Wang y Gaoshen Li.

Hasta ahora, la policía dice que han encontrado evidencia de un crimen con sangre en la casa.

Según los informes, el torso desmembrado fue encontrado el miércoles por una persona sin hogar que estaba hurgando en un contenedor de basura de un centro comercial. Haskell Jr. y Mei tienen 3 hijos que están a salvo bajo la custodia del DCFS de Los Ángeles.

Shawn Mendes & his potential new boo enjoyed a day at the beach ... strippin' down to their undies for some fun in the sun after she had his arm around him at a WeHo eatery.

The singer and TV personality Charlie Travers hit up Point Dume and El Matador Beach Wednesday out in sunny SoCal -- and it appears their trip to the ocean might've been an unplanned one, seeing as they have no bathing suits on hand.

No worries, 'cause Charlie took off her top and pants, while Shawn got down to his boxer briefs to enjoy the day -- and we're assuming Shawn's strip down helped any ladies nearby enjoy their day, too.

TMZ broke the story, Charlie had her arm around Shawn at a restaurant in West Hollywood on Tuesday ... witnesses told us the pair was pretty touchy-feely, too.

Unclear if her arm around him was a sign to ward off the ladies, or something more mild ... but there's obviously something going on here.

Of course, this potential romance comes after Shawn's relationship with Camila Cabello, which first ended in November 2021.

Shawn Mendes y su probablemente nueva novia disfrutaron de un día de playa, sacándose la ropa hasta quedar en ropa interior para divertirse bajo el sol después de que ella lo tuviera abrazado en un restaurante en West Hollywood.

El cantante y la celebridad televisiva Charlie Travers fueron hasta Point Dume y El Matador Beach para pasar un soleado miércoles en el sur de California, y parece que su viaje al océano puede haber sido improvisado, ya que no tenían sus trajes de baño a la mano.

No se preocupen porque Charlie se quitó la camiseta y los pantalones, mientras que Shawn quedó en calzoncillos para disfrutar el día. Estamos asumiendo, además, que la performance de Shawn ayudó a que las otras damas en la playa disfrutaran también.

TMZ publicó la historia, Charlie tenía su brazo alrededor de Shawn en un restaurante en West Hollywood este martes, y testigos nos dijeron que la pareja estaba bastante cariñosa.

No está claro si el brazo alrededor de él era una señal para alejar a las otras mujeres, o algo más relajado, pero obviamente algo está pasando aquí.

Por supuesto, este potencial romance viene después de que la relación entre Shawn y Camila Cabello terminara por primera vez en noviembre de 2021, y luego a principios de este año, después de una breve reconciliación.

Priscilla Presley was very nearly a Kardashian ... had her unwavering loyalty to her ex, Elvis Presley -- and lack of cooking skills -- not been an issue for Robert Kardashian.

In light of the new movie based on her romance with the King of Rock & Roll, Priscilla has been doing lots of promo lately ... revealing in a Q&A that she had "never wanted to marry again" after Elvis because no one would match up to him.

And no one had better first-hand knowledge of her devotion to the icon post-split than Robert ... who was head over heels for her when they first met and thought they would marry and have babies together.

However, in the 2017 unauthorized biography, "The Kardashians: An American Drama," the author says Rob frequently felt like a third wheel, because Elvis repeatedly interrupted their romance in bizarre and controlling ways.

In the book, a close pal recalled Robert complaining Elvis called while he was making love to Priscilla ... who then propped the bedside receiver on the pillow between them, forcing Rob to listen to their convo. Awwwkward.

According to the biography, Elvis just didn't want his ex to see other men ... for the sake of their daughter Lisa Marie.

Another blow for Robert was that romancing Priscilla came at the expense of family affairs as his older brother Tom was also interested in her ... and when she chose Rob, his bro grew envious.

But, Rob's bud Joni Migdal said the final straw for their relationship was when Priscilla cooked a meal for Robert, which he hated so much ... he suggested she never make dinner for him again!

His desire to forge a life with Priscilla dissipated soon after, and as we all know, Rob went on to marry Kris Jenner and have their 4 kids ... Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Rob. Rob and Kris were married from 1978 to 1991.

King Kong no tiene nada que envidiarle a Jared Leto, mucho menos después de que escalara hasta la cima del Empire State Building solo para promocionar la nueva gira de su banda 30 Seconds to Mars.

El cantante y actor se encumbró por encima de los cielos de Nueva York el jueves por la mañana, diciendo a los anfitriones de "TODAY" que llegó a la cima del icónico rascacielos, algo que siempre había tenido como objetivo.

Dice que en su camino hacia la cumbre se detuvo alrededor de la planta 80 y vio a su madre en el interior, lo que fue una agradable sorpresa, pero cuando llegó a la cima del edificio, en el piso 102, dijo que las vistas eran increíbles, especialmente cuando el sol empezó a salir.

La hazaña no se hizo sin un poco de derramamiento de sangre, con los anfitriones Al Roker, Savannah Guthrie, Carson Daly, Craig Melvin y Sheinelle Jones mostrando sus golpes y raspaduras, pero parece que valió la pena.

La gran escalada de Jared no es solo uno de sus objetivos en la lista de cosas por hacer antes de morir, también es parte de su campaña de promoción de la gira mundial de su banda, 30 Seconds to Mars, que comienza en marzo.

Hay que admitir que es una manera bastante única de vender entradas.

Ahora, el chico no es ajeno a las escaladas atrevidas como esta. Jared Leto lleva escalando edificios y algunas dementes formaciones rocosas desde hace un tiempo, lo que sin duda lo preparó para llevar a cabo esta hazaña en el rascacielos.

King Kong ain't got s*** on Jared Leto ... not after he scaled the tippy-top of the Empire State Building simply to promote his band 30 Seconds to Mars' new tour.

The singer/actor took to the sky above NYC Thursday morning, telling the 'TODAY' hosts he made it to the top of the iconic skyscraper -- something that had always been a goal of his.

He says on his way up, he stopped around the 80th floor where he saw his mom inside, which was a nice surprise ... but when he got to the top of the 102-floor building, he said the views were pretty incredible, especially as the sun started to rise.

The feat wasn't done without a bit of bloodshed, however -- showing hosts Al Roker, Savannah Guthrie, Carson Daly, Craig Melvin and Sheinelle Jones his beat-up paws ... but it sounds like it was worth it.

Jared's big climb wasn't just a bucket list check-off -- he's also promoting the upcoming world tour for his band, 30 Seconds to Mars ... which kicks off in March.

Gotta admit, it's a pretty unique way to sell tickets.

The guy's no stranger to daring climbs like this ... he's been scaling buildings and some insane rock formations for a while now, all of which certainly prepared him for his grueling skyscraper milestone.

6:20 AM PT -- Wynonna Judd ha visto las críticas y la preocupación de sus fans y publicó de un video para hacerle frente a la situación. Le echa la culpa de todo el asunto a los nervios, diciendo que quería estar en su mejor momento para Jelly Roll. Wynonna dice que simplemente estaba aguantando y estará de vuelta en la carretera la noche del jueves para otro espectáculo.

Wynonna Judd se aferró a Jelly Roll durante su actuación la noche del miércoles en el Country Music Awards y sus fans están preocupados.

La leyenda de la música country subió al escenario con Jelly para cantar a dúo el tema de Jelly, "Need A Favor", en los Premios CMA 2023 en Nashville.

En un momento, Wynonna se acercó a Jelly y le agarró del brazo, dando la impresión de que necesitaba ayuda para mantenerse en pie. No está claro si Wynonna estaba sufriendo algún tipo de problema de salud, pero pudo terminar la canción y abandonar el escenario por su cuenta.

Aun así, sus fans expresaron su preocupación en redes sociales tras ver su inestable actuación. Recordemos que Wynonna perdió a su emblemática madre, Naomi, por suicidio en 2022, por lo que ha pasado por momentos difíciles últimamente.

Un fan escribió en X: "Apenas podía caminar. Estaba dando pasos de bebé".

Otro preguntó: "¿Soy el único preocupado por @Wynonna"?

Una tercera persona observó: "Algo está mal con ella. Espero que esté bien. Wynonna Judd se aferra a Jelly Roll para salvar su vida #CMAawards".

Y un cuarto dijo: "Fue muy bizarro. Me pregunto qué estará pasando. Apenas se movió una vez que se aferró a él".

Sin embargo, hubo buenas noticias, Jelly Roll se llevó a casa el trofeo a "Mejor Nuevo Artista".

¡Felicidades Jelly!

6:20 AM PT -- Wynonna Judd has clearly seen the criticism and worry from her fans, posting a video to address the performance -- she blames the whole thing on nerves, saying she wanted to be at her best for Jelly Roll. Wynonna says she was simply holding on for dear life ... and will be back on the road for another show.

Wynonna Judd clung to Jelly Roll during their performance Wednesday night at the Country Music Awards -- and now her fans are worried something is wrong with her.

The country music legend hit the stage with JR to sing a duet of Jelly's tune, "Need A Favor," at the 2023 CMA Awards in Nashville.

At one point, Wynonna walked over to Jelly and grabbed his arm, giving off the impression she needed help to stay on her feet. It's unclear if Wynonna was experiencing some type of health issue, but she was able to polish off the song and leave the stage on her own.

Still, her fans took to social media and voiced their concerns after watching her seemingly unsteady performance. Remember, Wynonna lost her iconic mother, Naomi, to suicide in 2022, so she's had a rough time lately.

One fan wrote on X, "She could barely walk. She took baby steps."

Another one asked, "Am I the only one concerned for @Wynonna."

A third person observed, "Something is wrong with her. Hope she is ok. Wynonna Judd is holding on to Jelly Roll for dear life #CMAawards."

And a fourth freaked out, "It was seriously bizarre. I wonder what’s going on? She barely moved once she got a death grip on him."

In some good news from the show ... Jelly Roll took home the trophy for "Best New Artist."

Congrats, JR!!

A husband's going viral for putting a Taylor Swift tip jar in his house, and making his wife pay up for every mention of the pop star OR her boyfriend, Travis Kelce!

Maryland resident Dana Rice shared the clip of her hubby's new "invention," showing him clearly fed up with the Taylor/Travis chatter going on around their home these days ... prompting him to tape a sign with the new house rules on a tall glass.

It says, "Any mention of T. Swift and you owe $0.25" ... adding, "I can't take it anymore." And yes, there's a footnote reminding Dana the Kansas City Chiefs star is included in the deal.

Dana says she became a Swiftie when Taylor launched her "Eras" tour back in March ... and now fellow fans are coming to her defense in the comments -- one jokingly wrote, "25 cents is a small price to pay to spread the gospel."

Dana slips up pretty early, BTW ... saying they both were recently on 'SNL' -- referring to their brief cameos last month on the show's season premiere. As you know, that's when the entire country was goin' nuts over their relationship.

As we reported, the duo was spotted holding hands in NYC before their brief appearances on 'SNL' ... and they also hit up the show's after-party together.

Un marido se está volviendo viral por poner un tarro de propinas de Taylor Swift en su casa, ¡y hacer que su mujer pague cada vez que menciona a la estrella del pop o a su novio, Travis Kelce!

Dana Rice, residente de Maryland, compartió el clip de la nueva "invención" de su marido, donde se lo ve claramente harto de escuchar sobre Taylor y Travis en su casa por estos días, lo que lo llevó a establecer este curioso sistema.

En el video dice: "Cualquier mención de Taylor Swift y me tienes que pagar 0,25 dólares" y añade: "No puedo soportarlo más". En las instrucciones hay una nota al pie que le recuerda a Dana que la estrella de los Kansas City Chiefs también está incluido en el trato.

Dana dice que se convirtió en una Swiftie cuando Taylor lanzó su gira "Eras" en marzo. Ahora sus compañeros fans están saliendo en su defensa, diciendo en broma, "25 centavos es un pequeño precio a pagar para difundir el evangelio".

Dana comete un error muy rápidamente, por cierto, cuando cuenta que ambos estuvieron en Saturday Night Live recientemente para el estreno de la temporada del programa. Como ustedes saben, ahí fue cuando todo el país se volvió loco por su relación.

Como les contamos, el dúo fue visto de la mano en Nueva York antes de sus breves apariciones en SNL, y también llegaron juntos a la fiesta posterior del show.

It took just seconds for Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan to talk about Taylor Swift during the CMAs on Wednesday ... and, unfortunately for New York fans, the reference led to a hilarious crack about how terrible the Jets have been this year.

The NFL Hall of Famer and the country music star hosted the annual awards show ... and as part of their roles as anchors, the two gave an opener full of jokes.

Of course, that meant there was definitely a mention of Swift and her new relationship with Travis Kelce ... which then turned into a jab at the 4-4 Jets.

"Luke," Manning said into the mic onstage, "you know the difference between Taylor Swift and the New York Jets?"

"Uh, Taylor can sell out a stadium?" Bryan responded ... before Manning cracked, "You nailed it!"

The barb was met with a mix of laughs and groans -- before Manning chuckled, "I had you do that punchline, Luke, so I wouldn't get in trouble."

The duo's opener also included Peyton singing some country music classics ... as well as a quip about Eli Manning getting a face tattoo in honor of Jelly Roll.

Lola Brooke is certain Lori Harvey will bounce back after her most recent split -- from "Snowfall" star Damson Idris -- and says she wouldn't mind scooping a few pointers from her on juggling men!!!

TMZ Hip Hop gauged Lola's reaction to Lori's latest breakup on Tuesday, and the "Don't Play With It" rapper didn't want to believe the hot couple was done ... since she totally bought into them being a couple.

Lori's fans, like Lola, had their fears confirmed Tuesday when the couple announced they were headed for Splitsville by releasing a joint statement about having mutual "love and respect," but needing to walk separate paths.

In the past, Lori's been linked to the likes of Diddy, Future, and Michael B. Jordan -- to name a few -- and all Lola wants to know is how she can get the men flocking to her the same way!!!
