T.I. dio inicio a la celebración del 50 aniversario del hip-hop de los Atlanta Falcons el domingo, y casi termina a golpes con su hijo King cuando una disputa familiar en las gradas se volvió física.

Después del show, T.I. y King comenzaron con un intercambio juguetón que rápidamente se convirtió en un altercado físico dentro de su suite en el estadio Mercedes-Benz.

King comenzó a transmitir en vivo por Instagram donde defendió que sabía sobre dificultades como vivir con cucarachas mientras crecía… a lo que sus famosos padres se burlaron y afirmaron que iba a casa de su abuela a chupar su chupete, ¡porque no se le permitía hacerlo en su mansión!

King llegó al límite y comenzó a gritar que era conocido por ser un emprendedor, momento en el que T.I. intervino y le dijo que no solo estaba “avergonzando” a la familia, sino también a sí mismo.

King le suplicó a T.I. que ‘lo soltara’ y se puede ver a T.I. intentando calmar a su hijo.

Al parecer, tuvo éxito… T.I. sujetó a King en una llave de lucha y le dijo: “No puedes hacer nada conmigo, no hay una mierda que puedas hacer conmigo”, mientras varias personas en el fondo le suplicaban a King que se detuviera antes de que la cámara se apagara.

Más adelante, King se desahogó un poco en sus historias de Instagram, aunque muchos de sus seguidores comentaron que estaba exagerando y que sus padres tenían razón.

King nació en 2004; T.I. ya había lanzado su álbum de platino “Trap Muzik” y formado su sello discográfico Grand Hustle Records.

Shakira isn't out of the woods on the tax front -- Spain is coming after her again in a separate probe, and she's had to pay millions as prosecutors keep digging ... this per a new report.

We know Shakira settled her criminal case with the Spanish government last week -- having shelled out around $27 million to receive a lighter sentence after copping to tax fraud charges between 2012 and 2014 ... with an in-court acknowledgment she made before a judge.

However, according to a recent story from Spanish newspaper El Periodico -- she ain't done just yet ... 'cause now, prosecutors are drilling down on alleged tax fraud from 2018, which is a completely different case than what was dealt with just 6 days ago.

The outlet says Shakira has "deposited" an extra $7.2 million in this new investigation -- although it's unclear if this is just a bond, of sorts, she's forking over to stay out of trouble ... or if it's a straight-up new settlement amount she's paying to make the charges go away.

El Periodico, which is citing anonymous court sources here, makes it seem like this latest cash payment is a gesture from Shakira to receive further leniency when the case eventually wraps up ... which is a little strange and quite different than how we do things here in the States. The outlet notes, though, that her paying this isn't exactly an admission of guilt.

If this is true, and she ends up losing this $7.2 million down the line ... that would mean, all told, she's paid about $34 million or so to clear up her tax problems -- which have been dogging her for years.

Pretty shocking, to be honest ... but hey, we suppose this sorta thing can happen when you're as rich as she is. She's got an estimated net worth of about $300 million.

T.I. kicked off the Atlanta Falcons' 50th anniversary of Hip Hop celebration Sunday, and almost wound up kicking his son King's ass when a family dispute in the stands got physical.

Following the performance, T.I. and King engaged in what started as a playful back-and-forth but quickly spiraled into a physical altercation inside their suite at Mercedes-Benz stadium.

King began live streaming on IG where he pleaded his case that he knew about hardships like living with roaches while growing up ... to which his famous parents scoffed at his story and claimed he'd run to his grandmother's house to suck the pacifier, because he wasn't allowed to in their mansion!!!

King reached his breaking point and began to scream he's known for standing on business, to which T.I. stepped in and told him he was not only "embarrassing" the family but himself as well!!!

King can then be heard pleading for T.I. to "get off him" and you can see T.I. come into frame in an attempt to subdue his son.

He apparently succeeded ... T.I. secured King in a headlock and told him, "Boy you can't do nothing with me ... ain't shit you can do with me" as multiple people in the background can be heard pleading for King to stop before the camera cuts off.

Afterward, King blew off some steam on his IG stories although many of his followers informed him he was royally tripping and his parents were right.

King was born in 2004 -- T.I. had already released his platinum-selling "Trap Muzik" album and formed his Grand Hustle Records.

Tom Brady is old news to one of his biggest supporters ... 'cause stunning model Veronika Rajek apparently has her eyes on a new man -- Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

Veronika -- who went viral after professing her love for the seven-time Super Bowl champion last season -- was in the crowd to catch the Las Vegas Raiders vs. Kansas City Chiefs matchup at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday ... and it's safe to say she liked what she saw, specifically one player in particular.

VK shared pics of her visit to Sin City ... showing her ditching her Buccaneers jersey for some custom Raiders threads as she gave a review of the game.

"LV did their best, but the Chiefs played awesomely," Veronika -- who has more than six million followers on Instagram alone -- said after K.C.'s 31-17 win. "I have to admit. Kelce is such a great player and hunk as well. I get you Taylor, 'road less taken.' 😉"

The "road" comment is seemingly a nod to Swift's old song, "The Outside" ... where she sings, "I tried to take the road less traveled by, but nothing seems to work the first few times, am I right?"

While Rajek clearly isn't shy about her feelings toward Kelce, it doesn't seem like she's ready to butt into Taylor's new relationship ... she's just giving the pop superstar props.

Taylor Swift tuvo unos invitados muy especiales en su concierto del domingo en Brasil... la familia de la mujer que recientemente falleció mientras asistía a su espectáculo en Río de Janeiro.

Un video publicado en X mostró a cinco familiares de Ana Clara Benevides Machado disfrutando de la actuación de Taylor dentro de una carpa VIP en el estadio Allianz Parque en São Paulo la noche anterior.

Todos los familiares lucían camisetas con el rostro de Ana, incluso su padre, Weiny.

Una fuente le mencionó a la revista People que Taylor invitó a la familia a su show del domingo y se tomó una foto grupal con ellos. La imagen fue posteriormente publicada en X.

Tal como informamos, Ana se encontraba en el concierto de Taylor en el Estadio Olímpico Nilton Santos en Río el 17 de noviembre, cuando comenzó a sentirse mal durante una ola de calor. La fanática de 23 años fue llevada de urgencia a un hospital, donde fue declarada muerta.

Taylor Swift hosted some special guests at her Sunday concert in Brazil … the family of the woman who recently died attending her Rio de Janeiro show.

Video posted to X showed five relatives of Ana Clara Benevides Machado enjoying Taylor’s performance from inside a VIP tent at Allianz Parque stadium in São Paulo last evening.

The kin were all sporting t-shirts emblazoned with Ana’s face, including her dad, Weiny.

A source told People magazine Taylor invited the family to her Sunday show and took a group photo with them. The picture was later posted to X.

As we reported, Ana was attending Taylor's concert at Nilton Santos Olympic Stadium in Rio on November 17, when she began feeling sick during a heat wave. The 23-year-old fan was rushed to a hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

8:23 PM PT -- TMZ has confirmed Jean passed away Wednesday, and we've confirmed the authenticity of the press release circulating on social media ... which we're told comes from her family. Her publicist also tells us Jean died from natural causes.

Her family released a statement, which notes her long storied career which started at JetStream Records and eventually jumped to Stax Records ... and all the tunes she produced in between, ending with her starting her own label (Comstar).

The statement ends ... "Jean Knight's legacy is not just a musical one; it is a testament to the enduring love between an artist, her hometown, and the fans who adored her. As we bid farewell to this iconic soulstress, New Orleans and her global fan base join together in gratitude for the indelible mark she left on the world." The family requests privacy at this time.

Jean Knight -- most famous for her hit 'Mr. Big Stuff' -- has died ... this according to reports.

An unattributed press release purporting to be the soul singer and New Orleans native's obituary is making the rounds online -- and if it's to be believed ... it says JK passed away last Wednesday, although the circumstances surrounding her death are unclear for now.

Knight's 1971 song is easily her biggest claim to fame, but it's a huge contribution to music and pop culture. 'Mr. Big Stuff' not only performed incredibly well on the charts when it came out -- including five weeks at #1 on the Billboard Soul Singles chart, and peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 -- but it ended up being featured in numerous films and TV shows.

Just a handful of series that used 'MBS' ... 'Family Guy,' 'black-ish,' 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,' 'Everwood' and 'The Deuce' -- just to name a few. On the movie front, it got played in Will Ferrell's 'Semi-Pro.' Beyond that ... the track got remixed/sampled a ton over the years.

Some of that notable acts who flipped this gem ... Heavy D & The Boyz, Eazy-E, TLC, Queen Latifah, Everclear, Girl Talk, Beastie Boys and John Legend. 'Mr. Big Stuff' had also been covered a handful of times ... famously by Precious Metal, Lyn Collins and many others.

Jean had recorded lots of other songs throughout her career ... but none ever reached the success of 'Big Stuff.' Some of her other notable singles ... "My Toot Toot," "You Think You're Hot Stuff," "Carry On," "Helping Man," "Do Me," "Jesse Joe (You Got to Go)" ... and more.

She was 80.

RIP

Ludacris performed at the Atlanta Falcons game this weekend -- and it looks like he took a page out of Lady Gaga's playbook to make an entrance ... descending from the heavens.

The rapper was the hired talent Sunday at Mecedes-Benz Stadium ... but weirdly enough, he didn't put on a halftime performance -- but rather, did a quick set after the third quarter ... which definitely took everyone by surprise.

The reason ... the dude literally rappelled down onto the stage below from way up toward the top of the facility -- and he did it kinda slowly, partially rapping a song in the air.

Looks like he was doing 'Move Bitch' on his way down ... and he was hyping up the crowd too, who ate it up. Unclear if he did a whole set once he touched down or not (there was a game going on, after all), but he got a little shine regardless.

The whole point of this was to celebrate 50 years of hip-hop in the ATL ... of which Luda has been a huge contributor over the years -- not to mention countless other acts from the area.

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck bought a palace of a home earlier this year, but even all these months later ... they still appear to be trying to furnish the place, or so it seems.

The couple went shopping Saturday, hitting up a furniture/interior design store in L.A. ... and plopping down on one of the display couches on the floor to test it out a bit. They were photographed from outside, and it looks like they did a bit more than just sit and chill.

Take a look for yourself ... Jen and Ben were feeling a little romantic, smooching one another as they cozied up on the model sofa -- and chitchatting a bit here and there too.

Unclear if they ended up making a purchase or not -- whether it was the couch or otherwise -- but it looks like they're the type of people who like to see and feel what's gonna be in their house ... as opposed to just blind online catalog shopping, which they could easily do.

Again, J Lo and BA purchased their new estate way back in May -- throwing down $60 million for a huge property in Bev Hills ... which they started moving into right away. Based on pics of that whole process at the time, it seemed they each had a fair amount of stuff.

The pad itself has a lot of space to fill -- so snapping up extra furniture, even now, isn't all that crazy. Their mansion has 12 bedrooms, plus a ton of other rooms for lounging and whatnot. Safe to say, it takes time to deck it out ... especially if they're in-person shoppers.

What's funny ... Jen and Ben are just like the rest of us in this regard. The only difference is that most folks are hitting Ashley -- and they're swinging by an upscale decor showroom, with prices that quickly run up into the 5 figures and beyond.

Jennifer Lopez y Ben Affleck compraron un palacio para hacerlo su hogar a principios de este año, pero incluso todos estos meses después... aún parecen estar intentando amueblar el lugar, o así parece.

La pareja fue de compras el sábado a una tienda de muebles y diseño de interiores en L.A., y se dejó caer en uno de los sofás en el piso de exhibición para probarlo un poco. Fueron fotografiados desde el exterior, y parece que hicieron un poco más que sentarse y relajarse.

Véalo por usted misma... Jen y Ben se sentían un poco románticos, besándose mientras se acurrucaban en el sofá modelo-- y charlando un poco aquí y allá también.

No está claro si terminaron haciendo una compra o no -- si fue el sofá o algo más -- pero parecen ser del tipo de personas que les gusta ver y sentir como sería en su hogar... a diferencia de realizar las compras a ciegas sobre un catálogo de compras en línea, lo que bien pudieron haber hecho fácilmente

Una vez más, J Lo y BA compraron esta nueva residencia el pasado mes de mayo -- dejando 60 millones de dólares para una enorme propiedad en Bev Hills... a la que comenzaron a mudarse inmediatamente. Basado en fotos de todo ese proceso en el momento, parecía que cada uno tenía una gran cantidad de cosas.

La casa en sí tiene mucho espacio para llenar -- por lo que la compra de muebles extra, incluso ahora, no es del todo una locura. Su mansión cuenta con 12 habitaciones, además de un montón de otros cuartos para descansar y otras cosas. Es seguro decir que llevará tiempo decorarla... especialmente si son compradores presenciales.

Lo que es gracioso... Jen y Ben son como nosotros en este sentido. La única diferencia es que la mayoría de las personas están yendo a Ashley -- y ellos están visitando una sala de exhibición de decoración de lujo, con precios que rápidamente llegarán a los 5 dígitos y más allá.

La hija de Beyoncé, Blue Ivy, ha sido una constante en casi todos los conciertos de su gira 'Renaissance' este año -- y ha mejorado su forma en el escenario... todo gracias a los detractores.

Tras el estreno de la película de su concierto este fin de semana, el NYT hizo una reseña de la película y citó a Queen Bay diciendo... la colaboración de BI en la gira tenía la finalidad de ser temporal únicamente, un acuerdo de una sola vez... pero se convirtió en constante después de que su hija se retractara.

Y añadió: "Aunque al final cedió, Beyoncé se sintió consternada cuando Blue Ivy leyó los comentarios en las redes sociales que criticaban sus deslucidos movimientos. Pero emocionó a su madre que, en lugar de renunciar, decidió esforzarse y entrenar aún más duro para futuras paradas".

Esta noticia ha causado gran revuelo en las redes sociales... la mitad de Twitter está indignada de que tanta gente criticara brutalmente a la niña de 11 años al principio de la gira, pero otros están haciendo uso de esto como prueba de la resiliencia/talento de Blue Ivy -- porque es una mucho mejor bailarina ahora.

Han circulado por Internet imágenes de su actuación, de sus actuaciones en Europa ... y sí, se puede observar una gran diferencia entre su actuación en aquel entonces y la de los últimos conciertos.

El debate ahora se concentra en si la dura evaluación de sus habilidades en aquel momento estaban justificadas o no -- algunos piensan que BI se merecía el 100 % de las críticas que recibió, argumentando que si se pone bajo los reflectores (junto a su madre, nada menos) es un juego limpio. Otros piensan que la niña se merecía un respiro.

Beyoncé's daughter, Blue Ivy, has been a fixture at just about all of her "Renaissance" tour concerts this year -- and she's upped her onstage game ... all thanks to the haters.

In the wake of her concert film's premiere this weekend, the NYT reviewed the film and quoted Queen Bey as saying ... BI's involvement with the tour was meant to just be a temporary, one-off deal ... but became a regular thing after her kid pushed back.

They add, "Though she finally relented, Beyoncé was dismayed when Blue Ivy read comments on social media that criticized her lackluster moves. But it thrilled her mother that instead of quitting, she decided to put in the work and train even harder for future stops."

This news has caused quite a stir on social media ... half of Twitter is outraged that so many people were brutally criticizing the 11-year-old early on in the tour, but others are using this as proof that Blue Ivy's resilient/talented -- 'cause she's a way better dancer now.

Footage from her May outings in Europe has been making the rounds online ... and yes, you can see a major difference in how she performed then compared to recent shows.

The debate now is whether the harsh assessments of her skills at the time were warranted or not -- some think BI 100% deserved the flak she got, arguing that if she steps into the spotlight (next to her mom, no less) it's fair game. Others think the girl deserved a break.

Beyoncé trajo lo viejo y lo nuevo el sábado por la noche… presentando su nueva película 'Renaissance' y reuniendo al grupo que lanzó su carrera.

Bey fue la anfitriona del estreno de su película en el Teatro Samuel Goldwyn en Beverly Hills, y Destiny's Child estuvo en primera fila. Kelly Rowland y Michelle Williams se presentaron, junto con las miembros fundadoras del grupo, LaToya Luckett y LaTavia Robertson.

Apareció una gran cantidad de celebridades para ver la película… como Janelle Monáe, Lori Harvey, Lizzo, Gabrielle Union, Halle Bailey, Marsai Martin, Laverne Cox, Niecy Nash-Betts, Tina Knowles, Tyler Perry, Tia Mowry, Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, Issa Rae, Andra Day, ¡y esta es solo una parte lista!.

Beyoncé brought out the old and the new Saturday night ... unveiling her new 'Renaissance' flick, and bringing together the group that launched her career.

Bey hosted the debut of her film at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Bev Hills, and Destiny's Child was front and center. Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams showed up, along with founding members of the group, LaToya Luckett and LaTavia Robertson.

There was a slew of celebs to watch the film ... Janelle Monáe, Lori Harvey, Lizzo, Gabrielle Union, Halle Bailey, Marsai Martin, Laverne Cox, Niecy Nash-Betts, Tina Knowles, Tyler Perry, Tia Mowry, Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, Issa Rae, Andra Day and that's just a partial list.

There was a big star MIA from the event ... Taylor Swift. As you know, Bey showed up for Taylor's 'Eras' flick and even had a sushi dinner with Taylor beforehand. Taylor, however, has a good excuse -- she's in Brazil for her concerts.

Allison Holker le ha dicho oficialmente adiós a la casa de Encino que compartía con su difunto esposo Stephen "tWitch" Boss, luego de poner un aviso de venta y comprarse una casa de campo ultramoderna el mes pasado en Los Ángeles por $5 millones.

Once meses después del fallecimiento de Stephen, el fallecido DJ del programa de entrevistas de Ellen DeGeneres, era comprensible que Allison quisiera empezar de nuevo. Según los registros de bienes raíces, solo un mes después de listar la casa en $3,795,000, Allison la vendió por $3,525,000.

Con el capítulo de la propiedad cerrado, el que tenía 6 dormitorios, 7 baños, 4.600 pies cuadrados y donde tuvo recuerdos inolvidables con Stephen, el nuevo propietario ya está instalado para disfrutar.

Construida en 2018, la casa tiene algunas características particulares como una exhibición de vinos, una despensa de mayordomo en una cocina de chef profesional y una casa en la piscina con su propio baño privado.

Pero después de un año difícil, las cosas parecen ir mejor para Allison. Al parecer se acaba de comprar una casa más grande de 5.800 pies cuadrados, construida recién este año, con 6 cuartos de baño, una sala de cine, iluminación de diseño y puertas de cristal para tener la experiencia de vida interior y exterior perfecta de Cali.

Claramente, la mudanza marca un nuevo y muy necesario comienzo para Allison y sus hijos Weslie, de 15, Maddox, de 7 y Zaia, de 3.

Hablando con Hoda Kotb en mayo, Allison dijo que las conversaciones que tuvo con sus hijos tras la muerte de Stephen es algo que no le desea a nadie.

TMZ fue el primero en informar la noticia, Stephen murió en diciembre de 2022, dejando una nota de suicidio que hacía referencia a desafíos del pasado.

Allison Holker has officially bid adieu to the Encino home she shared with her late husband Stephen "tWitch" Boss ... selling it after purchasing an ultra-modern farmhouse in L.A. last month for $5 mil.

11 months after the passing of Stephen -- the late DJ from Ellen DeGeneres' talk show -- Allison was understandably seeking a fresh start. According to real estate records, just a month after listing the pad for $3,795,000, she's sold it for $3,525,000.

With Allison's chapter closed on the 6-bedroom and 7-bathroom 4,600-square-foot property where she made unforgettable memories filming dance videos with Stephen, the new owner is in for a treat.

Built in 2018, it has some defining features such as a wine display, a fully functioning butler's pantry in a pro-chef's kitchen, and a pool house ... with its own private bathroom.

But, after a challenging year, it's only onward and upward for Allison, who has reportedly purchased herself a larger 5,800 square feet home .... newly built this year with 6 bathrooms, a movie theatre, designer lighting, and glass doors for the perfect indoor-outdoor Cali living experience.

Clearly, the move marks a much-needed fresh start for Allison and her children -- Weslie, 15, Maddox, 7, and Zaia, 3.

Speaking to Hoda Kotb in May, heartbroken Allison said the conversations she had with her kids following Stephen's passing were something she didn't wish on anybody.

TMZ broke the story ... Stephen died by suicide back in December 2022 ... leaving a suicide note referencing past challenges.
