Fulton County Medical Examiner Issues Press Report on the Death of Kenneth Bailey
Per FCME: Mr. Bailey sustained a penetrating injury of his right thigh that created marked blood loss. This injury was not a gunshot wound.
Report here: https://t.co/7gva4GQr3W pic.twitter.com/uv5kf1bYzJ
Per the ME, Scooter suffered an injury to his right thigh from the wooden fence he jumped during the chase.
The woman who made the 911 call that led to the police altercation that eventually ended rapper Young Scooter's life is stepping forward with her side of the story ... and it's a completely different one than the one she told Atlanta Emergency Services!!!
Demi Blanco, a reality star contestant on the Zeus Network series "Baddies," went live on Instagram Tuesday and claimed she was being treated unfairly by social media users angry over Scooter's death because they didn't know the whole side of the story.
Demi claims she called 911 to "protect herself" ... a total contradiction of the call she made on March 28 when she urged cops to come stop a naked woman from being beaten outside an Atlanta home.

Update
3:48 PM PT -- A spokesperson for LeBron James tells TMZ ... “This is demonstrably false and doesn’t even merit a report or response. A basic internet search shows what LeBron was doing all of April 2015. He was playing basketball for the Cleveland Cavaliers and never in Miami.”
3:43 PM PT -- Brian Bieber, attorney for Brendan Paul tells TMZ ... “Is this an April Fool’s Day joke? If someone seriously filed this lawsuit, the allegations against Brendan are 100% false and literally impossible to have occurred.
Brendan was still in high school in Ohio at the time, having never even set foot in West Palm Beach in his life. It’s unfortunate that anyone who pays the filing fee and gets directions to the Courthouse can file a frivolous lawsuit. We will be seeking an immediate dismissal of the case, and appropriate sanctions.”
12:06 PM PT -- Jay-Z’s attorney Alex Spiro tells TMZ ... "Mr Carter wasn't in Florida at that time to witness this incident - he was engaged in easily findable public activities that prove he was not at this event. This is more nonsense that erodes the trust in our "justice" system"
11:45 AM PT -- A rep for Gloria and Emilio Estefan tells TMZ ... "Gloria and Emilio Estefan strongly deny the allegations made. The property in question was never a home where Gloria and Emilio resided, but it was rather a house they owned for family use. There were no parties thrown at that property between 2012 and 2019. We have all necessary documentation to support these facts and will provide it to the court."
A new Diddy accuser claims he was sexually assaulted, raped and humiliated at a "freak-off" party in Miami ... and he says Jay-Z, Beyoncé, LeBron James and Gloria Estefan saw him in rough shape.
Diddy is being sued for human trafficking by a Florida man named Manzaro Joseph , who claims Diddy humiliated him at an April 2015 birthday party for King Combs by strapping a penis to his face and parading him around.
In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Manzaro claims he was drugged and transported to Star Island in Miami for the big party in April 2015 ... he says he was first dragged into the back entrance of Emilio and Gloria Estefan's mansion, where a panicked Gloria saw his "drug-induced stupor" and demanded someone call an ambulance.

Fans suspect parts of Drake's "Nokia" video are ribbing at Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance a lil bit -- and DJ Whoo Kid loves every bit of the spectacle!!!
TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the SiriusXM vet at LAX on Tuesday and he agrees Drake earned his crown as the "Petty Troll King" this week with the first visual from his recent project "$exy $ongs 4 U."
Towards the end of "Nokia," Drake takes center stage on a white platform surrounded by dancers, reminiscent of the imagery on K. Dot's record-breaking halftime show -- Whoo Kid calls it a Bobby Fischer-sized chess move!
Drake Got My Hands All Over 'Tetas' ... Rocks Viral MLB Hat!!!
Drake's now apparently a Rangers supporter ... but, sorry Corey Seager and Jacob deGrom, it seems like the newfound fandom has little to do with the actual baseball diamond.
Check out a selfie the "God's Plan" artist posted Tuesday afternoon -- it shows he's, indeed, now backing the Rangers ... but take a closer look, it appears he's into them because of a silly misprint on one of their new hats.
The New Era Overlap 5950 collection cap, of course, went viral earlier this year ... when fans noted the way the Rangers' logo was superimposed over the word "Texas" spelled out a Spanish vulgarity for a woman's breasts.

'AMERICAN IDOL' Nepo Ba-bye To Carnie Wilson's Daughter!!!
Carnie Wilson’s daughter, Lola Bonfiglio, might have to work a little harder to carve her own path -- 'cause "American Idol" just gave her the boot.
Yup, the Wilson Phillips singer’s daughter didn’t quite hit the right note during Hollywood Week on Monday night's episode, with judge Luke Bryan calling out her pitchiness -- and with that, she was one of dozens sent packing.
Lola’s run on 'Idol' wasn’t without drama -- viewers were already side-eyeing the show for letting in a nepo baby.

UPDATE
3:50 PM PT -- President Trump just signed the executive order ... with Kid Rock standing by to offer moral support and further clarification for the cameras about the issue.
Kid Rock was dressed in what some might call an extravagantly patriotic red outfit, with white and blue stars, stripes and some eagle wings, and a bandana-wrapped fedora ... a sharp contrast to Volodomyr Zelensky's muted military 'fit, which VZ was called out for as being insufficiently respectful during his own recent official Oval Office visit.
President Trump is trying to tackle an important issue he raised on the campaign trail ... scalpers and expensive fees driving up ticket prices for live entertainment ... and he's got a new action he says will fix these issues.
Sources at the White House tell TMZ ... Trump is signing a presidential executive order today to end price-gouging by middlemen in the entertainment industry.
We're told Trump's latest EO will combat a bunch of issues folks encounter when trying to buy tickets to popular concerts and sporting events ... remember the headaches for the Taylor Swift "Eras" tour?!?
