7:36 PM PT -- A rep for Nipsey Hussle's estate tells TMZ ... “The estate has been finalized, and Nipsey’s assets have been distributed to their rightful beneficiaries, his children. We are grateful to have reached this milestone and remain committed to honoring Nipsey’s legacy while protecting the privacy of his loved ones. Thank you to everyone who continues to support that legacy.”

Nipsey Hussle’s children finally received their cut of the late rapper’s estate ... TMZ has learned.

Per court docs obtained by TMZ, Nipsey’s children, 17-year-old Emani and 9-year-old Kross, have been paid out in cash and other assets.

The estate, which was reportedly worth an estimated $11 million, is run by Nipsey’s brother Blacc Sam. For years … Blacc fought with Emani’s mom, Tanisha Foster, for years over the inheritance. The parties resolved their differences last year.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding wasn't just a phone-free affair ... 'cause TMZ has learned security went a step further, scanning guests for Meta Smart Glasses and other hidden cameras in an effort to keep the celebration under wraps.

Sources familiar with the event's security tell TMZ ... the couple's strict no phone policy extended well beyond confiscating visible devices. We're told security personnel walked throughout the venue carrying scanners, checking for Meta smart glasses and any other hidden recording devices that could secretly capture photos or video from inside.

The heightened security measures track with what TMZ first reported, which was that the strict no phone policy extended to NYPD officers working inside the wedding, who were told to leave their devices behind or skip the assignment altogether.

Lauren Bennett's family and closest friends have already gathered to celebrate her life ... with the singer honored during a private memorial service in London ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Lauren's former G.R.L. and Paradiso Girls bandmates were present, along with immediate family and close friends who attended the intimate service about a week and a half ago.

We're told Bennett, who died about three weeks ago in Kent, England, was laid to rest during the ceremony.

Lauren Bennett -- a singer best known for her feature on the hit LMFAO song "Party Rock Anthem" -- has died.

Her former band GRL, released a statement Monday saying ... "It is with great sadness that we share the passing of our beloved Lauren."

They go on to say their "hearts are broken, and we cannot begin to express how much she meant to us. We will forever cherish the love, laughter, and countless memories she gave us. Her beautiful spirit touched so many lives, and she will be deeply missed and forever loved."

Bennett kicked off her professional music career when she was just 18 years old ... forming the Paradiso Girls along with several other ladies in 2007. They dropped their debut single "Patron Tequila" in 2009.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce kept their wedding invites under wraps ... until now. And with wedding weekend over, more and more details are spilling out about their super secret ceremony.

Apparent wedding guest Ashish Ferguson -- brother of Trav's ex-personal chef and childhood friend, Kumar Ferguson -- shared a photo of the couple's top-secret wedding invitations to Instagram.

We broke the story ... that Taylor and Travis had watermarked their invites to prevent leaks before their big day, and the reported invitation has Ashish's name stamped all over it.

Lena Dunham's not shying away from that reportedly NSFW toast she gave at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding.

She took to Instagram Sunday to seemingly acknowledge the commotion she made over the gay porn joke she may have made.

The "Girls" creator, who has been friends with Taylor since her notorious "1989" girl-squad era, shared some shots in what she wore to Tayvis' star-studded ceremony, captioning the carousel ... "Available going forward for weddings, bar and bat mitzvahs, and sweet sixteens (gay ones). I love both my husbands and I love love."

​A man behaving erratically caused quite a stir outside Taylor's Swift and Travis Kelce's rehearsal dinner at Madison Square Garden last Thursday -- and the situation got so tense the man had to be escorted away by NYPD officers, TMZ has learned.

The insane incident went down Thursday night outside MSG in Midtown Manhattan, where, inside the venue, the pop star, her then-fiancé, Travis, and about 100 other people gathered for the special dinner one day before Taylor and Travis tied the knot.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the deranged man tried to blow past officers to go inside Penn Station, the transportation hub below MSG. We're told the man was not a Swiftie trying to break into MSG.

Joe Jonas and Tatiana Gabriela are turning their Italian getaway into one serious thirst trap ... showing off plenty of skin during a sun-soaked day by the pool.

The singer stripped down for a sun-soaked day in Portofino Monday, showing off his toned physique while Tatiana cranked up the heat in a skimpy red bikini as the couple lounged, sipped cocktails and cooled off in the pool.

Check out the photos ... Joe and Tatiana were practically attached at the hip, chatting face-to-face in the water, kicking back along the edge of the pool with drinks in hand and soaking up every second of their romantic Italian escape.

Nicki Minaj was living it up with the big shots at the White House Rose Garden Lunch ... and she got a shoutout from President Trump who called her hot!

Check out the videos ... Nicki was right at home Monday outside the White House ... and probably felt like a real "Barbie" when Trump decided to voice his appreciation for her and her not-so "small business" ... oh, yeah, and also called her hot -- not beautiful, not sexy ... hot.

Nicki was spotted at the event in a pink dress ... and she sure didn't hate the praise she got from Trump when he said she's "so incredible" ... and "they call it small business, Nicki, but when you add it up, it's bigger than any bank probably in the world, right?"

Watching Tamar Braxton and Kandi Burruss try to play nice during a photo op may be one of the funniest things you see all day.

They were lined up on stage alongside greats like Brandy, Monica, and Missy Elliott -- who was awarded the Essence Icon Award -- for Essence Fest's Black Women in Music ceremony on Sunday ... and had an awkward little moment before cameras started flashing.

You can see in the clip, Tamar reaches across Monica to grab Kandi's hand to say hi ... but Kandi clearly wasn't here for it.

The waterworks were going around for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's big wedding celebration this past Friday ... and now we know what Taylor said that made her new husband break down in tears when the pair exchanged their vows!

The singer paid tribute to the character of the Kansas City Chiefs star before he was ever an NFL player ... saying even though he was the star athlete in high school, he would still go sit with the less-popular kids who were being bullied at lunchtime ... according to PEOPLE.

To add to the sentiment -- because after all, it's Taylor -- she also said she wishes she knew someone like that when she was in high school.

It turns out being buddies with Travis Kelce didn't guarantee an invite to the Taylor Swift wedding ... 'cause ex-NFL player Will Compton is "flabbergasted" he didn't make the cut.

The "Bussin' With the Boys" podcast host hopped on a call with Dave Portnoy on Monday's "Wake Up Barstool" ... and was asked why he wasn't at Madison Square Garden for the biggest marriage ceremony of the year.

Compton said he initially didn't think much of it when he found out he didn't score an invite ... but admitted the frustration came after he saw who DID.

Ariana Grande's ex-boyfriend is still very much in the picture ... 'cause Ricky Alvarez joined her for a Fourth of July grocery run before the pair headed to her parents' house for the holiday.

Ariana and Ricky hit up Whole Foods in Florida Saturday, loading up on groceries before making their way to the family celebration -- nothing screams Independence Day quite like shopping with your ex.

The holiday hang came right after Ariana wrapped three sold-out "Eternal Sunshine Tour" shows in Sunrise, Florida ... so she apparently traded the stage for the supermarket aisle.

We're begging Duffy for mercy ... because she's back and looking amazing after disappearing for over a decade.

The Grammy winner hit the stage for the first time in 15 years on Sunday, performing an hour-long show at Hoxton Hall in east London.

Duffy performed her comeback concert for a specially-invited audience -- complete with fabulously-dressed drag queens -- before taking the after-party to Shoreditch.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour dancer Tori Evans apparently didn't get the memo about wearing white to someone else's wedding ... and the internet is letting her have it.

Check out the video and judge the wedding faux pas for yourself ... Evans showed off her look from Taylor and Travis Kelce's wedding in a new video ... rocking a dress that had some fans wondering if she was trying to blend in with the bridal party.

The dancer captioned the post with a nod to Taylor's "Blank Space," writing, "So it's going to be forever..." -- but the comments quickly became less about the song and more about the color of her dress.

Justin Bieber's making waves again ... only this time, it's literally on an Idaho lake.

TMZ has obtained photos of the Biebs cruising around Lake Coeur d'Alene Sunday morning ... shirtless and rocking pink swim trunks as he zipped across the water on what appears to be an electric paddleboard.

We're told Justin headed out around 11 AM after getting off a boat that appeared to have 4 people aboard ... but once he hit the water, he was riding solo.
