Gillie Da Kid has the last laugh over Tech N9ne now that his Eagles stomped out the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX -- and he celebrated by rubbing Tech's fight song in his face.

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Gillie in NOLA right after the Eagles put their talons all over the Lombardi Trophy, and the "Million Dollaz Worth of Game" podcaster had two words for T9: Red Kingdom!!!

Remember, Gillie's had to endure the Kansas City anthem the past few years as the Chiefs built their dynasty and he licked his chops -- but not this year.

Gille was on TMZ Live last week and explained how both Cameo's "Candy" and Too Short's "Blow The Whistle" became the Eagles' theme songs ... adding "Red Kingdom" to the playlist feels downright diabolical!!!

Back in Philly, Eagles fans shared Gillie's energy by lighting their own city up.

Kanye West is using his $8 million Super Bowl commercial to sell $20 shirts featuring nothing more than a hate symbol.

The rapper's website, Yeezy dot com, has only one thing for sale at the moment ... a white shirt emblazoned with a black swastika.

Kanye shelled out $8 million for a 30-second ad during the TV broadcast for Super Bowl LIX ... encouraging folks to go to his website ... and anyone following through is now being greeted by a swastika shirt.

Cara Delevingne hit up the Super Bowl, but forget the game -- she was all about some quality buddy time with Machine Gun Kelly.

Check out this vid -- Cara and MGK were kicking it on the suites level at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans Sunday. When MGK did a double take to say hey to a buddy in a suite, Cara just hung back, patiently waiting for his return.

Don’t get it twisted -- these two are just pals! Cara’s dating singer Minke, while MGK’s still recovering from his rollercoaster relationship with Megan Fox.

Michael Blackson is throwing serious salt in the argument only white people couldn't vibe with Kendrick Lamar's artistic Super Bowl halftime show ... the comedian witnessed it live from Caesars Superdome, and he was less than impressed.

TMZ was on site and got Mike's honest and raw take on K. Dot's big show ... he's under the impression it was probably better on TV.

Kendrick was praised by some viewers for his pro-Black dance troupes that also sniped Drake with subtle shots ahead of the grand finale.

Drake's Down Under on tour, and he was onstage venting about his exes -- just hours before two of them, Serena Williams and SZA, hit the Super Bowl stage with his sworn enemy, Kendrick Lamar.

Drake got spicy onstage, shading past flames who "play you in your f***ing life" ... and telling fans, "If you're doing better than your ex, turn up to this song!" -- before launching into "You Broke My Heart." He was performing a stop for his "Anita Max Win" tour at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia ahead of the Super Bowl kickoff in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Looks like Drake’s exes weren’t exactly crying over him -- they were too busy living it up at Caesars Superdome Sunday, with Serena, who he had a thing with from 2011 to 2015, making a dance cameo to "Not Like Us," the super popular track dissing Drizzy.

Jim Jefferies could be dragged into court by a cop -- correction, The Cop from the Village People -- all because Jim referred to "Y.M.C.A." as a gay anthem ... TMZ has learned.

The comedian received a cease and desist letter from Victor Willis' wife Karen Willis -- who also manages the VP lead singer -- and, the letter rips Jim for his "obscene, derogatory and false description" of the hit song ... in their eyes, at least.

Last month, while doing his 'At This Moment' podcast, Jim bluntly delivered his interpretation of "Y.M.C.A." -- "It's f***ing in showers in a hostel. Right? When you're a young man who's been kicked out of your home, there's a place you can go," paraphrasing that last part from a verse in the song.

Kendrick Lamar is receiving mixed reactions following his NFL Super Bowl LIX halftime performance ... even after he included his extremely popular Drake diss track "Not Like Us" in the lineup.

In addition to the hit song -- which won him five Grammys last week -- he performed other crowd-pleasers, including "gnx," "peekaboo" and "HUMBLE." He also brought out SZA for their hits "All the Stars" and "Luther," and even had Serena Williams -- who once dated Drake -- crip-walking to "Not Like Us." Samuel L. Jackson opened up the performance dressed as Uncle Sam to preside over the show.

But not all viewers were pleased. Many fans slammed the show as "boring," with some even claiming they switched channels to pass the time.

Kanye West's X account has been deactivated after days of antisemitic, misogynistic and racist rants ... and it came after Elon Musk labeled Ye's account "NSFW" in response to the rapper posting too much porn.

Elon's Sunday response came after a concerned X user advocated for Kanye to be banned from the platform -- not because of Ye's comments, but for repeatedly posting porn, which was showing up on X whether people wanted to see it or not.

Musk replied ... "Given what he has posted, his account is now classified as NSFW. You should not be seeing that anymore." Shortly afterward, Kanye appeared to deactivate his X account himself.

Taylor Swift is ready to cheer on her man ... because she's just arrived at the stadium for Super Bowl LIX.

The pop star arrived at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans just minutes ago ... wearing jean shorts, a long white blazer and knee-high white boots. She entered the stadium with rapper, Ice Spice.

One person who won't be joining Taylor in her Super Bowl suite -- Blake Lively. We broke the story ... Taylor and Blake's friendship is fractured after a text surfaced where Blake told Justin Baldoni she was Khaleesi (from 'GoT') and hubby Ryan Reynolds and Taylor were her "dragons."

Megan Thee Stallion turned heads while stepping out in The Big Easy ahead of Super Bowl Sunday.

The rapper was photographed leaving her hotel in New Orleans on Saturday night wearing a daring see-through ensemble that's hugging her tight while looking downright incredible.

In true Meg fashion she went all out ... giving the fans what they wanted ... edgy and sexy chic while clearly looking and feeling her best.

Taylor Swift was spotted out with longtime friends in The Big Easy the night before her boyfriend takes center stage at the Super Bowl.

TS had a low key dinner with close friends, Danielle and Alana Haim at New Orleans Italian restaurant Gianna on Saturday night. Notably absent from the dinner was TS' boyfriend, Travis Kelce ... who was back at the team's hotel resting before tonight's big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.

TayTay sported a black top with black shorts and a black jacket. She accessorized her look with a black purse and heels. Oh and we can't forget ... she wore a bold, dark Chiefs-red lip.

Bianca Censori's naked Grammys look still has everyone talking -- a lot of women are now setting her figure as their body goals ... with one plastic surgeon telling TMZ he's fielding calls like crazy!

Dr. Christopher Costa from Platinum Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas tells TMZ that since BC's red carpet shocker, women have been hitting him up like crazy -- he's been flooded with calls and DMs from folks wanting to snag that same physique.

Dr. Costa says it’s clear that women are shifting toward a more natural look in 2025, with Bianca serving as the perfect example -- she’s got the curves, but it’s not over-the-top or fake-looking like plastic surgery has long been associated with.

Jay-Z famously enlisted Eminem as the only guest star on his iconic album "The Blueprint" -- and proof of their "Renegade" deal is now available for hardcore collectors!!!

Moments In Time got their hands on the production agreement contract signed by both Jay and Em ... the extremely rare piece of music history is being listed for $35,000!!!

The Hip Hop culture being honored today was in full swing at the time ... Jay's Roc-A-Fella Records connected the dots with Em's Angry Blonde Productions for the beat Slim Shady created.

5:24 PM PT -- LiAngelo Ball just posted a picture with Rashida Nicole ... seemingly making them Instagram official after Nikki Mudarris accused him of abandoning their family earlier in the day.

LiAngelo Ball is dealing with some baby mama drama ... the mother of his 2 children claims he is walking out on their family after getting another woman pregnant and starting a new life with her.

The "Tweaker" rapper and basketball player has two kids with Nikki Mudarris ... and the reality TV star claims LiAngelo just confessed to cheating on her.

Nikki says ... "I see everyone has been sending me @gelo cheating on me. I want to clear this up and speak my truth. I am just as surprised as you are. We spent 3 1/2 years together, and last week he decided to walk out on his kids and tell me he got someone else pregnant (allegedly) and now is creating a new life with her."

The Super Bowl is nearly here ... and it seems like nearly everyone is gonna be watching ... even some of the most high-profile celebs in the clink.

TMZ has heard from a variety of sources how the Menendez brothers, Suge Knight, Joe Exotic and even Harvey Weinstein plan on enjoying the big game.

A source within the California Department of Corrections tells TMZ ... Erik and Lyle -- along with the rest of their pod -- are planning on making prison-style fajitas and pizza ... meaning using commissary ingredients.

R. Kelly is being hounded for millions of dollars by six victims who claim he isn't paying out an expensive judgment against him.

According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, six alleged victims say they scored a $10.3 million judgment against Kelly in 2023 ... problem is, they claim he's only paid them a fraction.

Lizette Martinez, Lisa Van Allen, Kelly Rogers, Faith Rogers, Roderick Gartrell and Gem Pratts claim they've received less than $500,000 ... and they say Kelly is still on the hook for more than $9.9 million.
