Musicians

Fans of the late Oliver Tree came together Monday evening to celebrate his heavenly birthday ... gathering in Venice Beach just two weeks after his tragic death.

Check out the video ... the turnout is massive, with fans showing up to honor the musician as Oliver's music blasts on speakers that could be heard throughout Venice Skate Park.

Fans even got decked out in Oliver's signature black-haired bowl cut and red-rimmed glasses.

These loyal aficionados were looking to make waves wherever they could ... because in the flyer they sent out, they even encouraged people who were not in Los Angeles to host their own meet-ups to pay tribute to Oliver on his birthday.

KATSEYE is setting the record straight on bandmate Manon Bannerman's hiatus ... shutting down speculation it had anything to do with the racial discrimination some K-pop fans believed she faced.

In a new interview, Sophia Laforteza made it clear Manon's break had nothing to do with race, saying the idea goes against everything the group stands for.

Lara Raj also addressed where things stand with Manon, insisting the six members remain each other's "safest space" and saying outsiders have no idea what goes on behind the scenes.

Kanye West and his former personal assistant Lauren Pisciotta are nearing an agreement to settle her bombshell lawsuit, which featured sexual harassment allegations and a slew of other disturbing claims.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, counsel for each side met June 4 for mediation and agreed in principle to settle the case. The court took the next hearing off the calendar to give the parties a chance to finalize the deal.

TMZ broke the story ... Lauren sued Ye in June 2024, claiming he fired her after sending her vile sexual texts and videos. One alleged text read, "See my problem is I be wanting to f*** but then after I f*** I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f***ed while I'm f***ing them. Then I want her to cheat on me."

Bobbi Althoff sat down with Oliver Tree for one of the late singer's final interviews, then published their conversation a couple weeks after his death ... but she didn't do so without a stamp of approval.

Sources with direct knowledge TMZ ... Bobbi reached out to Oliver's camp before publishing her interview with him on "The Really Good Podcast," and she got their blessing.

Oliver's appearance on Bobbi's podcast stands as one of his final on-camera interviews before he died in a helicopter crash in Brazil. It's unclear when they filmed the podcast, but Oliver died June 14 and Bobbi posted it 15 days later on June 29.

Bad Bunny's record label passed out freebies to Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor for a concert in Puerto Rico -- worth over $4,000, according to official documents.

TMZ obtained Sotomayor's annual financial disclosure, showing that the justice was given $4,333 worth of tickets by Rimas Entertainment for herself and guests while they were on a private trip to Puerto Rico in August 2025. Bunny's manager, Noah Assad, founded Rimas, which also represents a bunch of other Latin music artists. 

It's not clear from the disclosure whether Sotomayor and Co. attended a Bunny concert or a show for another Rimas musician. Yet, during August 2025, Bunny hit the stage in Puerto Rico for a slew of performances.

Noah Kahan's mystery concert pooper won't be answering to the law after all ... because cops tell TMZ they aren't investigating the crappy incident that left fans gagging.

Philadelphia Police tell TMZ ... no one ever filed a report over the viral bathroom blunder ... so there's no investigation underway despite the internet frenzy.

As we reported, the chaos unfolded during Noah's Friday show at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park, where a woman was accused of pooping in her seat before allegedly tracking the mess through the crowd. Noah even weighed in afterward on X ... begging fans not to crap their pants.

Oliver Tree got deep on the fickle nature of life in one of his final interviews before his tragic death ... telling Bobbi Althoff nothing in life should be taken for granted.

Bobbi just released video from Oliver's appearance on "The Really Good Podcast" ... he gets philosophical, telling her ... "We don't know if I'll be alive next year or you'll be alive. There's no day promised."

Looking back, Oliver's comments are kinda eerie ... considering he died earlier this month when the helicopter he was flying in collided with another chopper in Brazil. Five other people died in the crash.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are making sure nobody leaves their wedding celebration hungry ... and Tay's putting her own stamp on the menu with dishes from some of her favorite restaurants!

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Taylor personally curated food stations for the celebration at Madison Square Garden, with specialty bites being brought in from a handful of her go-to spots.

We're told every menu item has the bride-to-be's seal of approval ... though exactly which restaurants made the cut is still under wraps.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have taken extraordinary measures to make sure their wedding celebration invite doesn't leak ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... every invitation is individually watermarked with the guest's first and last name repeated throughout the invite, a security measure designed to identify anyone who leaks it online.

We're told invitations began going out in early spring, with many guests receiving them around April.

Our sources say if a guest were to photograph the invitation and post it publicly, Taylor and Travis would be able to trace it back to the specific attendee whose name appears throughout the invite.

Taylor Swift loves her some calla lilies, but she didn't buy up every single calla lily in New York City ahead of her upcoming wedding event at Madison Square Garden ... despite claims to the contrary.

TMZ reached out to several well-known florists in the NYC area about the reported raid of calla lilies for Taylor and Travis Kelce's big day ... and we were told it was BS.

Every shop we called not only had calla lilies in stock ... not one heard the rumor about Taylor buying up 42,000 flowers ... but you better believe they wished they had the account!

One shop told us they visited the New York Flower Market this morning ... and there were plenty of callas on hand for shops.

"Don't Hold Your Breath" if you're waiting for Nicole Scherzinger's to start showing her age ... because she's celebrating 48 years old and still killin' it in the looks department!

Turns out Druski wasn't the one calling the shots when a saxophone played SZA and Doechii offstage during their acceptance speeches at the BET Awards ... it was production.

A source close to production tells TMZ ... producers decided to have a saxophonist start playing during SZA and Doechii's BET Awards acceptance speeches Sunday night in an effort to keep the broadcast on schedule.

We're told Druski wasn't even in a position to call the audible ... he was backstage changing clothes when it happened and had no idea the music was drowning out the duo.

It's crunch time for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's upcoming wedding ... and there's a whole lotta action going down at Madison Square Garden ... with cargo trucks making important deliveries.

Check out these photos ... a massive truck rolled up to the famous arena early Monday, unloading a mountain of black equipment cases and lighting gear -- the kind of setup that's 100% screaming major event ... even by MSG's standards!

Security was everywhere, with workers bustling behind barricaded entrances.

Druski's saxophone gag at the BET Awards hit all the wrong notes with one of hip hop's biggest power players ... because TDE President Terrence "Punch" Henderson says the comedian did SZA and Doechii wrong.

The Top Dawg Entertainment boss blasted Druski after the host's running "wrap it up" bit cut short his artists' acceptance speech Sunday night at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.

Check out the clip ... as the pair accepted the BET Her Award for "girl, get up" the saxophonist suddenly took the stage and started playing over them ... drowning out the rest of their remarks.

Oliver Tree would've turned 33 today, and his girlfriend posted a touching tribute in his honor ... comparing him to Jesus Christ.

Fiona Chernavskaya shared a bunch of pics and videos to her Instagram story Monday, remembering the musician on his heavenly birthday ... just two weeks after he tragically died in a helicopter crash in Brazil.

She shared a few cute clips of Oliver on stage, plus her cheering him on during soundcheck and a behind-the-scenes moment backstage.

Fiona concluded with a sweet collage of some silly snaps from her time with Oliver, writing ... "33 like Jesus."

If you thought Cardi B had finally run out of steam after that jaw-dropping performance at the BET Awards ... think again.

The rapper kept the party going Sunday night at the 2026 BET Awards after-party in Hollywood, where all eyes were on her boobs in a plunging cutout dress that hugged every curve.

Let's be real, Cardi was impossible to miss ... finishing off the glam with a bouncy blowout and her best accessory of all -- that megawatt smile.
