You might want to hold onto your undies for this one -- Lil Nas X was spotted completely naked before his arrest this week ... and we've got video of the stunning moment.

Check out our clip -- he's strolling down the street while singing after ditching his underwear and boots somewhere in Los Angeles. He seems completely unfazed by his lack of cover ... even making eye contact with the camera as he puts on a show.

And if you didn't notice ... he's belting some Nicki Minaj lyrics, specifically her line in "Monster" by Kanye West.

Kelly Clarkson is keeping it lowkey in Los Angeles wearing a large hat and shades for her first outing since the passing of her ex-husband, Brandon Blackstock.

The singer was spotted donning an all-black outfit while arriving at LAX airport with her kids, River, 11, and Remington, 9, as well as her sister, Alyssa. The "American Idol" alum maintained a somber expression as she tried to corral her group and their belongings before heading into the airport.

This is the first time Kelly has been spotted since news of Brandon's passing broke earlier in August. As we reported at the time, BB was battling melanoma -- a serious form of skin cancer -- for several years before succumbing to his illness.

Drake calls this interview "much more refined, poised and pleasant" before Bobbi cuts in to debate the "pleasant" part ... leading them to a back-and-forth about how to label the project.

Tyla was spotted leaving her event in Brazil -- after a plethora of press and performances -- catching an over-the-shoulder lift ... because when you’re serving zero skips like she is, walking out like everyone else just isn’t on the schedule.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... after a jam-packed promo week -- and a lil’ bit of heat exhaustion -- the pint-sized star wrapped up the night after spending time some fans and performing at H&M’s big launch bash Wednesday night.

Sources tell us security scooped up the petite powerhouse just before midnight -- not because of any drama, but because bedtime came knocking ... and let’s be real, if anyone deserves to be carried out like royalty, it’s the girl who's been running the game without missing a beat.

The seller tells us that after he stopped recording, Lil Nas X actually started rolling on the pavement, but he had driven too far away to capture the fiasco clearly enough.

BigXThaplug is in a Lone Star State of trouble after getting booked into Dallas County Jail Friday morning ... the very day he planned to celebrate dropping his new album!!!

Dallas PD tells TMZ Hip Hop ... officers observed a vehicle without a front license plate, so they pulled it over, and discovered the driver was 27-year-old Xavier Landum -- better known as BigX.

Things went south for the rapper when cops say they found a firearm and marijuana in the vehicle.

So, legend has it, Waka reportedly rolled up to the club with an entourage that was 14 deep, and they tried to slip in the side door, sparking an argument with security.

Lionel Richie almost said "hello" to an unexpected guest Friday morning ... we've learned his Beverly Hills home was burglarized by a suspected thief.

Beverly Hills Police Department tells TMZ ... officers received a radio call regarding a residential burglary just after midnight in the 90210 neighborhood, where the famed singer-songwriter owns a property.

Cops ended up arresting a man named Michael John Bond on suspicion of residential burglary ... but the District Attorney has yet to formally file a charge.

Lil Nas X is still behind bars after his arrest early Thursday morning ... and now we know he's not getting out until at least Monday.

Authorities tell TMZ ... since the "Old Town Road" singer was arrested on suspicion of battery on a police officer, he needs to go before a judge to have his bail set ... and that ain't going to happen until Monday. Seems there are plenty of others in front of him also looking to bail out ... and Nas ain't cuttin' the line.

We're told this particular charge is an automatic appearance ... and he can't be issued a citation and released, like most misdemeanors ... 'cause "cited out" only applies to nonviolent offenses -- and Nas allegedly charged at police.

Offset decided to end his new album "Kiari" by flushing his memories of being married to Cardi B down the toilet -- he says she never cleaned, along with failing at her other wifely duties!!!

On his swan song, "Move On," Offset tells Cardi he'll take the blame and shame of their tumultuous split because, simply put, he thinks they look like fools in the public eye!!!

It's no secret the two have been at each other's throats since Cardi's last divorce filing stuck, in spite of their 3rd child being born throughout the drama.

The man cops say went viral for knocking out a woman during a Rüfüs Du Sol concert is getting the book thrown at him -- he's been arrested on felony charges, TMZ has learned.
