Kellie Pickler made her emotional return to the stage Monday night for the first time since the death of her husband Kyle Jacobs – putting on one helluva performance that almost brought down the house.

The singing sensation looked elegant in a sparkling gown as she walked out in front of the packed crowd to honor late country music legend Patsy Cline at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee.

Check out the video ... everyone immediately jumped to their feet and wildly clapped upon seeing Kellie while also hooting and hollering. Kellie greeted the audience before admitting that she was super nervous because she hadn't played live in a while.

Drake floored the masses when he brought Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg into his beef against Kendrick Lamar via AI ... and Pac's brother thinks it was a step too far in the ongoing beef.

Mopreme Shakur, Tupac's brother tells TMZ Hip Hop that his issue with Drake using an AI Tupac voice is that he weaponized it ... all for a rap battle.

Mopreme tells us Drake using Pac's voice is like bringing out a tank, or even going with a nuclear option -- and he thinks the battle should be 1-on-1 ... with no outside help.

Quavo is taking his beef with Chris Brown to a whole new level -- responding to CB's "Weakest Link" with a diss track of his own that includes the voice of late Migos member, Takeoff.

The new track is called "Over Hoes & Bitches," and it dropped late Monday, with Quavo's opening verse coming in hot -- "Little bitch come dance battle with my drac' / You been f***ed your bag up when you punched Ri' in the face."

Of course, Quavo's referring to Chris assaulting Rihanna back in 2009. So far in their rap beef, he's repeatedly hit Chris with his history of domestic violence.

Luke Bryan's counting his blessings for the extra padding that saved him when he took a nasty tumble onstage during his latest concert stop.

We caught up with the country star at Cecconi's Monday in L.A. ... and he joked his weekend slip-and-fall wasn't as painful as it looked 'cause he's got "a whole lot of meat back there" -- referring to his butt, of course -- which softened the landing.

ICYMI, the initial buzz was Luke went horizontal Saturday -- during his performance at the Coast City Country Festival in Vancouver -- due to a fan's phone that was left on the stage.

Eric B. & Rakim are very happy with the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees ... despite the fact they didn't personally make the cut.

The pioneering hip hop duo was on the ballot for this year's induction, but came up short in the final vote. Instead, Mary J. Blige, Cher, Dave Matthews Band, Foreigner, Peter Frampton, Kool & The Gang, Ozzy Osbourne and A Tribe Called Quest will be entering the Hall.

However, the two legends want it to be clear there are no hard feelings on their part, as they're happily congratulating their peers who will be inducted.

Busta Rhymes ain't about to stomach Hollywood-type crowds at his performance -- even if the gig happens to be in the Hollywood Hills!!!

That was the plotline when Dwyane Wade and cannabis co. Jeeter recruited Bussa Bus to perform at the after-party of their 420 "High Dining" event ... and while he was trying to do his duty, he wasn't getting high vibes from the crowd.

Basically, the audience wasn't giving Busta the energy he felt his classic tune "Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See" deserved -- so, he cut the music and told the onlookers to get their minds right.

Beyoncé's shutting down the haters and showing she's more than just wigs and extensions ... by embracing her luscious, natural locks while promoting her new natural hair care line.

The singer dropped her in-depth hair-washing routine on IG Sunday ... embracing her naturally thick, glossy tresses as they were washed, conditioned, blow-dried, and styled using products from her own brand, Cécred.

While her stylists worked their magic, Beyoncé narrated, "Now that Cécred is known for the quality in what it does for your hair, I think it's about time I show y'all what it does for my hair."

Celine Dion says she's doing all she can to prove nothing can hold her back, even as she copes with Stiff-Person Syndrome ... 2 years on from when she was first diagnosed.

The icon admits she's upset she hasn't conquered the disease yet -- but, as she provided a rare update about her health to Vogue France, she insisted she was doing everything in her power to push forward in hopes science will eventually find a cure.

Celine acknowledges she's had serious moments of doubt, saying ... "I have to learn to live with it now and stop questioning myself. At the beginning I would ask myself: why me? How did this happen? What have I done? Is this my fault?"

So much for Sunday Funday ... T-Pain's weekend came to a crashing end in Atlanta, when a speeding driver severely rear-ended the Auto-Tune Don's vehicle, and fled the scene without a word!!!

A calm yet irritated T-Pain went live from the scene of the accident and pointed out a very valuable clue for police ... the driver had left their bumper in the street, and it was only a matter of time before they matched the silver Chevy with the missing part.

Turns out he was right ... T-Pain posted an update, letting fans know the driver had been caught, and gauging by his use of the 😈 emoji, he plans on showing the guy no mercy.

Kim Kardashian's social media profile is taking a hit in the wake of Taylor Swift dropping a new diss track about the reality TV star.

ICYMI ... Taylor's new song, "thanK you aIMee," is a thinly veiled revenge anthem against Kim -- hence the capitalized letters in the title. In the song, Taylor blasts a bully from her past ... slamming the woman as a "bronze spray-tanned statue."

And, only a few days after the track's release, Kim's lost more than 100,000 fans on social media ... with countless Swifties spamming her Instagram and X pages with vitriol.

Beyoncé le está respondiendo a los haters y mostrando que ella es más que pelucas y extensiones, abrazando sus exuberantes mechones naturales mientras promociona su nueva línea de cuidado del cabello natural.

La cantante mostró su rutina de lavado de cabello en detalle en IG el domingo, abrazando sus cabellos naturalmente gruesos y brillantes mientras se lavan, acondicionan, secan y peinan con productos de su propia marca, Cécred.

Mientras sus estilistas hacían su magia, Beyoncé narró: "Ahora que Cécred es conocida por la calidad de lo que hace por tu pelo, creo que ya es hora de que les enseñe lo que hace por mi pelo".

Jill Scott isn't going to let Chris Brown’s checkered past block her enjoyment of listening to him lyrically pummel Quavo, and she's been fending off critics who wished she didn't cape for Chris!!!

The ripple effect from Chris' brutal "Weakest Link" graced Jill's radar over the weekend and she couldn't help, but gush over the embattled singer's MC skills ... “@chrisbrown is amazing. How does ANYBODY sing like THAT? Dance, look, Act and Rap… like THAT?” wrote Scott on Sunday morning.

“Beyond gifted. It appears, exceptional people have to go through exceptional 🔥. There’s nothing to debate.”

El infame parque temático Neverland de Michael Jackson está desempolvando las telarañas para filmar las escenas de una nueva película biográfica sobre la vida del fallecido cantante.

Como se puede ver en las tomas aéreas, la compañía de cine detrás de la película biográfica ha restaurado el lugar para que se vea tal y como estaba cuando Jackson era su dueño... El rancho es de 2.00 acres y está cerca de Santa Bárbara.

Todo está lleno de vida y diversión en el renovado Rancho Neverland, con toda una línea de otras atracciones, como un paseo en globo de aire caliente e incluso un tren.

Michael Jackson's infamous Neverland theme park is dusting off the cobwebs to film scenes for a new biopic about the late singer's life.

As you can see in the aerial shots ... the film company behind the biopic has restored signature features from when Jackson owned the 2,700-acre ranch near Santa Barbara -- the Ferris wheel, merry-go-round and circus tent all got colorful makeovers.

Everything's buzzin' with life and fun at the revamped Neverland Ranch ... with a whole lineup of other fairground rides, such as a hot-air balloon ride and even a red train.

Meek Mill is regretting his latest auto purchase ... the "Dreamchasers" rapper posted a video of his new Hummer EV vehicle and the evidence is as sour as a lemon!!!

Back in March, Meek posted a flick of a wrecked GMC but recently revealed how it happened -- he claims the brake pedal fell off, and the car even started driving on him ... while it was in park!!!

According to Meek, he barely had the whip for 4 hours but witnessed several safety features fail on him, including the airbags ... which he, unfortunately, experienced during the crash!!!

Post Malone tiene que estar feliz después de grabar colaboraciones con Taylor Swift y Beyoncé... Las Swifties lo adoran, pero los fans de Beyoncé no tanto.

El drama comenzó cuando un fan notó la diferencia entre los mensajes de Post para Taylor y Bey, señalando que le escribió una sentida nota a Tay y una sin mayor entusiasmo a Bey.

Después del lanzamiento de "Fortnight" -la canción que hizo con Taylor- Post fue a Instagram y compartió una foto de ellos en el estudio, donde escribió: "Es una vez en la vida que alguien como @taylorswift viene a este mundo. Estoy impresionado por tu corazón y tu mente, y estoy más que honrado de que me hayan pedido que te ayude en tu viaje 🥹 Te quiero tanto. Gracias Tay 💕".
