Published | Updated

It's the most baller move Ray J's made since shaking Kim Kardashian's cakes to camera -- he just celebrated a 7-figure TV deal by dropping half a mil on his and hers exotic sports cars.

Ray sunk the massive chunk o' dough into a Bentley Continental convertible for his gf, Princess Love -- and a Ferrari 458 for himself ... all on the heels of signing a fat new contract with VH1.

Sources close to the sex tape star/singer tell TMZ the deal has 6 zeroes attached -- and Ray will not only star in "Love and Hip Hop L.A." ... but also develop shows for the network with his manager David Weintraub.

We're told RJ will appear in some of the shows, and produce others. Real talk though -- he's mostly gonna enjoy the hell outta the Ferrari.

Hittin' it first ... the gift that keeps on giving.

Porsha Williams Evangelist Rant Gays & Lesbians Need to Be Saved

Published | Updated

Before Porsha Williams thumped Kenya Moore, she thumped bibles -- ranting from the pulpit about gays and lesbians destined for an eternity in hell.

Video shot roughly 3 years ago at High Praise Christian Center Ministries in GA has just surfaced, showing Porsha preaching and rambling about saving hookers, drug dealers, people who attempt suicide ... and gays and lesbians.

She screams, "We're supposed to try and save them and tell them, ‘You are worthy!'"

She doesn't stop there either ... you gotta see this.

We reached out to Porsha for comment -- so far, no word back.

Scotty McCreery Home Invasion Victim

Published | Updated

1:26 P.M. PDT -- Scotty is now talking about the robbery. He just Tweeted, "Yes, it was definitely a very scary night. Luckily, my friends and I are safe and the Raleigh PD is on the case." Scotty also thanked police for their quick response and said, "I will share more when the time is right, but as of now we do not want to do or say anything that could hinder the investigation."

Country singing former "American Idol" star Scotty McCreery was a victim of a home invasion robbery Monday morning.

The Season 10 "Idol" winner was visiting friends at an apartment around 2AM near the North Carolina State University campus -- where McCreery is a student -- when the incident occurred.

According to law enforcement, 3 gunmen barged into the unit -- while McCreery and his friends were inside -- and made off with cash, wallets, and other property, including valuable electronics.

We also obtained the 911 call which includes a bunch of other details -- the caller says the intruders were black, dressed in black sweat pants and gray hoodies. The caller says he was in another room when they barged in, but he could hear them say, "Everyone on the floor. Give us everything you've got."

No one was injured.

Scotty McCreery Super Secret 911 Call

Published | Updated

The 911 call made after Scotty McCreery and a few friends were robbed at gun point was not made by the teacher from Charlie Brown ... it just sounds like it.

TMZ has obtained the 911 call made early Monday morning after three gunmen broke into an apartment near North Carolina State University and made off with cash, wallets, and other property, including valuable electronics.

It's hard to say whether the "American Idol" champ is the one who placed the 911 call ... because North Carolina state law calls for the voices to be distorted on the tape.

So even though you've just been robbed, at least your identity is safe in North Carolina.

'Love & Hip Hop Atlanta' Beef Up Security ... Decrease the Ratchet

Published | Updated

"Love & Hip Hop Atlanta" producers are making cutbacks on bloodshed by increasing security during shoots, and Lil Scrappy can testify ... it's already saved him from brawling with a FEMALE co-star.

Sources close to production tell TMZ ... Scrappy and a new cast member named Erica Pinkett had to be separated by the new security force after she threw wine in his face during a dinner this week.

We're told producers have added security -- it's now one guard for every cast member --- on all shoots to keep things from getting "too ratchet."

We're also told it isn't just cast-on-cast violence they're guarding against ... it's also civilians trying to attack the show's stars.

As one cast member put it ... "That s*** gets ratchet and now the bodyguards shutting that s*** down."

Words to live by.

'Duck Dynasty' Stars Boycotted At Alaska State Fair

Published | Updated

Life's not always fair if you're part of the "Duck Dynasty" brood. We've learned they've been invited to the Alaska State Fair ... but there are already cries of boycott.

The Robertsons were hired to do a town hall of sorts, telling stories about their lives and their beliefs. But those beliefs include Phil's views on homosexuality ... including his observation that a man's anus is no match for a woman's vagina ... and therefore the boycott.

We're told there's a groundswell from people who want to either get the Fair to cancel the gig or -- if necessary -- disrupt the gig.

State Fair officials tell us ... they don't endorse all of Phil's views ... but they believe his core value is family ... something near and dear to Alaskans ... so the appearance WON'T be cancelled.

Phil needs to stay clear of V. Stiviano ... bad things happen.

A new reality show about L.A.'s little women is already running into big legal problems -- and it's all because the show's little Britney look-alike is allegedly acting a little too Britney.

Jeff Beacher from Beacher's Madhouse has sent a cease and desist letter to the producers behind Lifetime's new show "Little Women: L.A." ... telling them to watch their backs when it comes to one of the show's stars, Elena Gant.

Gant has famously worked at Beacher's Vegas theater -- doing a "Little Britney" act -- and Beacher wants her new TV producers to know ... he owns the "Little Britney" schtick and they better not try to lift it.

Beacher claims "Little Women" producers are already exploiting Elena's reputation as "Little Britney" in promotional materials ... and he insists ... it better stop now, or else.

Beacher says he owns the copyright for "Little Britney" -- as well as "Little Miley," "Little Kesha," "Little GaGa," and "Little Katy Perry" -- and he's prepared to sue if they're violated ... for tons of money.

Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ ... they already have a marriage license and plan to tie the knot before the week is out.

We're told it's strictly on the QT ... so much so they got a "confidential" marriage license so no one officially knows.

Out with the old, in with the new ... even when your new car looks just like the old one -- at least that's how the guys from "American Pickers" do things.

Neighborhood sources in The Oaks tell TMZ ... residents complained to the homeowners association after TV crews set up a "movie type production" outside the mansion Kourtney recently bought from Keyshawn Johnson.

Our sources say neighbors were pissed because filming is not permitted inside the gated community ... and because the crew was there well into the night -- when contractors, gardeners and other workers are not allowed.

Sources close to the Kardashians tell us the cameras were there for one day of exterior shots for "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" ... and won't be back.

Oops.

Move over, Sarah Palin ... the folks at "Buckwild" are coming back to MTV for season 2 and TMZ has learned they are shooting in the former Alaska governor's backyard.

As TMZ first reported, "Buckwild" was cancelled by MTV last year after the death of one of the cast members, Shain Gandee. Producers of the show maintained at the time they were going forward with season two.

Now sources tell TMZ the show has been shooting for about a month now in Wasilla, Alaska with a whole new cast. Our sources say the concept is the same as before -- lots of hooking up and fights -- but with some insane new stunts.

We're told they've already shot the cast skinny dipping in freezing cold water during an ice fishing trip ... and a crazy snowmobile ride through the mountains, with people being pulled on inner tubes. Our sources say the stunts being shot now may or may not make the final edit.

Published | Updated

Information Dean McDermott could have used before this photo was taken: Guys who are trying to save their marriages, after admitting cheating and telling the world their wives suck in bed ... should NOT be seen chatting up women in public.

Sure, it could be totally innocent, but Dean's gonna have a hard time getting the benefit of the doubt after his couples therapy confession that he cheated ... BECAUSE sex with Tori "wasn't fantastic."

Home brewed coffee can be good too.
