Hanging with Nicki Minaj is a sure sign you've finally made it ... Jeremy Meeks now knows the feeling.

Odell Beckham Jr. Message From Michael Irvin Focus On Football

Published | Updated

Money, fame and girls will come ... but Odell Beckham Jr. has to make football and his teammates the top priority in his life ... Michael Irvin tells TMZ Sports.

We talked to Irvin -- who back in the day was one of the league's best young players -- about the embattled N.Y. Giants star.

We broke the story ... Beckham Jr. missed Giants' OTA (a voluntary practice) on Monday 'cause he was in L.A. ... running drills with Johnny Manziel. He also skipped Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday's practice.

It didn't stop there ... Odell bowled with Iggy Azalea (and a group of friends) Monday night in L.A. ... igniting a firestorm of speculation about a possible relationship.

Azalea, and sources close to Beckham both told us they are NOT dating ... but still, Irvin's been there, and his advice to OBJ makes a lot of sense.

Scarlett Johansson Drags Katy Perry's Drag Queens Into 'SNL' Party!

Published | Updated

Scarlett Johansson saved the day for a couple of Katy Perry's drag queen performers during the finale of "Saturday Night Live" ... by getting them into the after-party.

A group of Katy's drag queens -- who performed with her for 'SNL's' final episode this season -- tried attending the official after-party at Rockefeller Center in NYC ... but were denied because they weren't on the list.

The band of 15 knew Katy could only have a few guests, so they understood.

As they walked away, 2 drag queens ran into Scarlett and 'SNL' cast member, Colin Jost -- whom she's reportedly seeing. Scarlett was on a mission, telling the group, "That's ridiculous! Everyone knows that drag queens should always get into a party -- come with us!"

And just like that ... the drag queens got in. Swish Swish.

Peyton Manning Downs 'Tennessee Whiskey' Belts Out Country Hit With Chris Stapleton

Published | Updated

Turns out Peyton Manning's voice is good for more than just yelling "Omaha," and we have video proof ... with the future Hall of Famer hitting the stage and going country with Chris Stapleton.

This all went down at the Red Rocks Amphitheater just outside Denver, where Manning got up onstage during Chris' show and joined him for Stapleton's song, "Tennessee Whiskey," and we gotta say, Manning wasn't half bad.

Peyton's showed off his pipes before, he duetted with Lee Brice last year for a rendition of "Rocky Top," but let's face it, that song is kinda like a lay up for Manning.

That's two times now, so, new career maybe.

Kimye and their kiddos, along with Kourtney's, were down in Anaheim Monday, and it's the first time we've seen them really let go and put all the hardships since Paris behind them. We're told they were there to celebrate a family friend's birthday.

Y'know they were cutting loose because they rode Dumbo AND the Teacups. Of course, Kim had to chow down on the Disneyland-must-have ... a churro!

Scott hit up a party bus Saturday night after celebrating his 34th birthday at 1 Oak earlier, and believe it or not ... there was a stripper aboard -- or at least someone acting like one.

The Lord gets in a few good smacks on the chick's ass -- and, boy, are they loud. The music can't even drown 'em out.

All the while about 6,000 miles away ... Kourtney was cozying up to her new man, Younes Bendjima, at the Cannes Film Festival in France. She flew out there a few days ago and joined him since he's from the area. As we reported ... she's officially done with Scott, and wants him to man up and move on.

Beyonce 2nd Baby Shower Tatted in Her Mind ... And On Her Belly

Published | Updated

Beyonce is just about ready to pop -- and it REALLY showed at her 2nd baby shower this weekend ... mostly 'cause of her belly tattoos.

Bey hosted a "Carter Push Party" Saturday and invited her mom, Tina, and a few her famous gal pals -- including her Destiny's Child crew Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland ... plus Lala Anthony AND fellow expecting mom Serena Williams.

But the highlight was obviously Queen Bey, who was walking around in some kind of tribal outfit with her very preggo belly fully exposed ... and covered in henna tattoos. Reminds us of when she first announced the twins.

It seems like any day now, but Bey's dad Mathew Knowles said on "TMZ Live" Friday she was more than 2 weeks away.

Pauly D & Questlove Team Up for 'Best Prom Night'

Published | Updated

Questlove and "Jersey Shore" alum Pauly D are teaming up to make sure a PA high school prom is lit like Vegas on a Saturday night because they're BOTH hitting the decks.

Pennsbury High is known for throwing insane proms, earning them the label ... Best Prom Night in America. John Mayer and rapper Asher Roth have both performed in the past.

PHS had to scramble to find a replacement for The Roots drummer/DJ after he backed out of this Saturday's prom due to "technology concerns." That's when DJ Pauly D swooped in to save the day. We're told PD is flying in from Vegas Saturday morning to put on the show.

Questlove then backpedaled and said he'd do it after backlash from the relentless students. Who says high school peer pressure doesn't work?

Bottom line ... they've got 2 celeb DJs! BONUS!!

Karrueche Tran Mellow Yellow 29th Birthday With Quavo

Published | Updated

Karrueche Tran rang in her 29th birthday at Cipriani's Wednesday night with a slew of guests that included boyfriend/Migos rapper Quavo.

They arrived and left separately, but the secret -- if it ever was one -- is way out.

They've been on the DL mostly because Karrueche has issues. She's going to court next week, hoping to get a permanent restraining order against ex-BF Chris Brown, claiming he targeted death threats her way.

Can't blame Quavo ... Karrueche looked damn fine, even pulling off highlighter yellow. HBD.

Travis Scott Arrested for Inciting Riot in Arkansas

Published | Updated

1:00 PM PT -- Rogers PD issued a statement saying Travis encouraged people to rush the stage at his show, bypassing security protocols in the process. They add ... several people were injured, including a security guard and a cop. A source close to Travis tells TMZ that he saw available space in the general admission toward the front, so he invited seated guests in the back to come forward. We're told he had no intention of putting anyone in danger.

Travis Scott's concert in Arkansas came to a rude ending when cops hauled him way for inciting a riot ... TMZ has confirmed.

Travis was performing in Rogers, Arkansas Saturday night, and according to several witnesses the officers met him as soon as he left the stage. Law enforcement sources tell us he was booked for inciting a riot, endangering welfare of a minor and disorderly conduct. He was released without bail around 11:30 PM. He'll also have to return to Arkansas for a court date.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

You'll recall ... he got busted for the same thing a couple years ago at Lollapalooza in Chicago.

More recently, Travis encouraged fans in NYC to jump from balconies. It's kinda his thing ... getting fans super turnt, but cops in Arkansas weren't having it.

It doesn't appear Kylie Jenner was with him last night. Not shockingly, #freetravisscott is already a thing ... even though he's already free.
