Drake Dude, Where's My Tour Bus?
11:29 AM PT -- A source close to Drake tells us the bus that got towed is solely used by the tour's production team and not how Drake gets around from city to city.
Drake's upcoming tour with Migos might be the hottest draw of the summer, but if Drizzy wants to make the next show ... he might need to rework his transportation situation.
The rapper/singer's tour bus was towed away from a hotel parking lot in Kansas City, MO around 3 AM Thursday. Sources at the hotel tell us Drake and his crew are staying there ... but it's unclear why they lost their wheels.
We've checked with Kansas City law enforcement ... they tell us there are no citations or arrests connected to the bus -- but it's possible it could be a repossession. In Missouri, repo companies don't have to notify cops.
Drake's rep says he's not the owner of the bus -- it's a rental for touring -- so if there's an issue with money ... it's on the bus company.
FYI -- Drake and Migos kick off their summer/fall tour Friday night at the Sprint Center, then have a show 2 nights later in Minnesota ... if they can get there.

Lil Pump Lollapalooza Talk's Distracting Me ... I'm About to Crash My Lambo!!!
Lil Pump's nightmare set at Lollapalooza was nearly upstaged by what went down in his Lambo ... while talking about the Lollapalooza nightmare.
We got the "Gucci Gang" rapper out on Sunset Blvd. Monday and asked him about his performance in Chi Town over the weekend. ICYMI ... Pump's set was cut short when event organizers and cops felt the crowd was getting outta control.
chaos at lil pump earlier. music cut at least three times to move the crowd back, bunch of cpd officers standing side stage. got in maybe five songs total #lolla pic.twitter.com/vhv8vF40dP
@mattypollock
Some fans bitched about the mess on social media -- but LP told us he blames Lolla officials, and he kiiinda throws his fans under the bus. The catch here is, our whole convo with him went down while he was behind the wheel of his Lamborghini Aventador.
Let's just say, driving and talking ain't Pump's thing.

James Harden Every Hero Needs Theme Music ... Here's Mine
Reigning NBA Most Valuable Player James Harden understands what Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, and Darkwing Duck have already proved ... that if you're gonna be a hero, you gotta have some theme music.
We got Harden cruising the streets of Hollywood yesterday (in a car fit for a superhero) and asked him what his theme music is when he pulls up to L.A. clubs to stunt.
In true superhero fashion, Harden says very little (okay, maybe Deadpool is different), but rolls down his window for our guy and blares his answer as he pulls off into the Los Angeles sunset.
In case you were wondering, the song is "Petrafyde" by NinaN9ne and 8ig Hungry ... which is a jam fit for a hero to be sure.
BTW -- we didn't make up the rules for heroes and their theme music ... Keenen Ivory Wayans did.

Travis Scott Takes 'Astroworld' to the Skies With $30k Wrap Job
Travis Scott celebrated the release of his new album like a world-class baller ... by promoting it all the way up to 35,000 feet.
Travis not only booked a private jet to take him and his crew to the "Astroworld" release party in Chicago Thursday night -- he got his ride a custom wrap job to match.
Scott's team hit up a private jet company in Van Nuys for the special occasion, which provided a Challenger jet for the rapper and up to 8 more of his peeps for their travels.
We're told the private charter company also did the "Astroworld" wrap job, which costs around $30k. If that sounds pricey, it's because it's made of special material requiring FAA approval -- it's not your typical car wrap.
As we've told you ... Travis' new album -- which dropped Friday -- has already been a source of controversy, but not because of the music. Clearly, he's not letting it bring him down.

Kim Kardashian West Range Rover, Range Rover Send Kim's Car Right Over!!!
Kim Kardashian West's loss (of a car) could be your next come up ... if you got an extra $85k lying around, that is.
Kim's customized 2015 Land Rover Range Rover V8 is up for grabs for anyone who can afford it -- now for sale at just $85,880 through Laguna Hills-based dealership Rosso Corsa.
An employee there tells TMZ they recently came into possession of Kim's family vehicle, which she was often seen driving over the past few years.
That's right ... Kim's ass was in that seat, and now you, too, could plant it for a bit of deal, if we're being honest. The dealer said the car originally went for $151k, so about $66k in depreciation ain't half bad. Plus, it's got all the bells and whistles.
We're told the Range Rover already comes super decked out, with 24" platinum Agetro wheels, a custom matte silver paint job and really sweet interior. All in all, sources say an estimated $20k went into pimping this ride to the Wests' liking.
BTW ... we're told a bunch of makeup and toys were found inside upon delivery. Makes sense ... it was her mom-mobile, after all.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Cardi B Post-Baby Bod Looks Even Better Sittin' on a Lambo
Cardi B's latest photo makes it hard to believe she gave birth to her daughter less than 3 weeks ago ... and makes you wonder if her new whip's got enough room for a car seat!
Cardi just showed off her post-baby bod for the first time since she and Offset welcomed their daughter, Kulture, into the world on July 10, and we gotta say ... she's lookin' hot!
It doesn't hurt she and her hubby are also flaunting 2 hot new Lamborghinis. She captioned the pic, "Blessed & Gifted ... Official Lamb Owners."
As we reported ... Cardi dropped a bombshell this week by announcing she's backing out of touring with Bruno Mars this fall to "recover mentally and physically" after becoming a mommy.
The new push present(s) should help.

Eddie Alvarez Gets $143,000 Van For Eagles Tailgate Party
Pay attention, tailgaters ... UFC star Eddie Alavarez is about to show you how it's done -- 'cause he just copped the most awesome $143k tailgating machine ever!!
Here's the thing ... Alvarez is from Philly and he's a HUGE Eagles fan ... who loves to tailgate before football games.
How do you do that if you're a big-time UFC star?
You do it in a Winnebago Era (new ones starts at $142,925) ... which is a tricked out luxury leisure machine built on a Mercedes Sprinter van chassis ... which Eddie hooked up with a TV.
"Hell yeah man, we got a RV now. I got a RV where I can head down to the stadium to tailgate," Alvarez told us.
"It's pretty. It's real pretty. We took it to a concert about a week ago and it was the talk of the town. Everyone was surrounding it."
Of course, the cost ain't a thing for Eddie ... he's the main event at UFC on FOX 30 Saturday where he's fighting Dustin Poirier, and we're guessing he'll make his scratch back.
Fly Birds, fly!

Katie Holmes I Want to Be a Part of It ... Just Another NYC Subway Rider
Katie Holmes' carbon footprint just shrank a size after she hopped on the subway in NYC, and blended in with the other metro riders.
We don't see celebs riding the subway often, but Holmes looked just like any other New Yorker minding her own damn business on a train headed uptown. She got lost in a copy of Joan Didion's "Slouching Towards Bethlehem."
Hopefully she didn't miss her stop. Nothing jacks up your day like waking up in Flushing, Queens ... when you were headed for Midtown.

'Teen Mom' Jenelle Evans Other Driver in Road Rage Incident Says ... She's Lucky She's Still Alive
Jenelle Evans didn't know who the hell she was dealing with in her road rage incident when she whipped out her gun, and she's lucky she didn't get her head blown off ... so says the other driver.
Robert Robinson Jr. -- the guy in the truck in the crazy video with Evans -- tells TMZ ... the "Teen Mom 2" star was the one who started acting crazy on the highway, so he admits he brake-checked her to try and chill her out.
He says once he saw Jenelle pull down his dirt road to follow him home in a rage, he alerted all his neighbors someone was coming -- neighbors who are like family to him ... and are all armed.
Robinson had a gun in his truck too, and tells us he only pulls it out to protect himself ... and shoots to kill. But he says he exercised restraint once he saw she had a kid in the SUV.
As we reported ... Evans didn't exercise restraint ... because she pulled her gun while her 8-year-old son sat beside her.

Here's racing star Josef Newgarden giving Danica Patrick's racing career the respect it deserves ... praising Danica as a trailblazer, who opened the door up for generations of women racers.
All while standing next to his solar hot girlfriend.
First things first ... we got Newgarden -- the 2017 IndyCar series champ -- and asked what Patrick's legacy to the sport would be, and he couldn't have been more gracious.
"Danica's been great for our sport, I think to me someone who was a leader for not just female race car drivers, but female engineers and female fans of the sport."
Second things second ... Josef did all this praising while standing next to his GF, Ashley Welch, and we gotta say GOOD LORD she's fine.
God speed, Josef ... if you never win again you already have a trophy.

Drake Uber Driver Calls Him and Driver 'F***ing Idiot' ... For Dinging Car
Drake and his driver got an earful from an Uber driver who went ballistic after Drizzy's driver apparently dinged his car ... and it's all on video.
The "In My Feelings" rapper was arriving at Delilah in WeHo on Tuesday night ... on his way inside, you hear someone howl from a distance, "F***ing idiot." Drizzy stops dead in his tracks.
Our camera guy quickly figures out what all the ruckus is about ... the driver is chewing out Drake's muscle/driver for allegedly swinging his door open, right into the Uber.
The Uber driver wasn't letting it go and called the cops. L.A. County Sheriff's Deputies showed up but didn't take a report because accidentally dinging a car isn't a crime.

T.I. Tiny Deserves Her New $225K Whip She's Given Me The Best Gift
T.I. says the $225k whip he got his wife, Tiny, for her 43rd birthday is just one item on a long list of things he's gifted her over the years, but she's given him the best gift back.
T.I. was in the Big Apple Monday and we asked about the Mercedes-Benz S550 he had customized in less than 24 hours for his wife, but T.I. didn't feel like talking specifics.
In fact, doesn't sound like T.I. is keeping track of all the gifts he's gotten his gal of 17 years ... instead, he says he's more worried about her reaction.
As for what he's gotten in return ... T.I. delivers a seriously good answer. If you need a hint: there's 3 of them.

George Clooney is recovering after another vehicle cut him off while he was riding his scooter -- and the accident was bad enough an ambulance had to rush him to a hospital.
George was riding Tuesday morning on the Italian island of Sardinia when a Mercedes-Benz sedan turned in front of him and hit him. He was knocked clean off the scooter, and left sprawled out on the road. The driver of the Benz stopped and called for assistance.
The Cloons was taken to Sardinia's John Paul II Hospital, and reportedly suffered bruising on his leg, arm and ... pelvis. He got an MRI, but has already been released, so seems like he'll be okay.
Cops told NBC the other driver was totally in the wrong.
George isn't your typical tourist tooling around on a scooter -- we see him riding all the time, especially in Italy. Looks like he's gonna need new bike, though, after this wreck.

Tyler Perry ... And You Get A Car, Tiffany Haddish!
Tyler Perry went and pulled an Oprah ... he bought Tiffany Haddish a brand spanking new caaaaaar!
Tyler says Tiff had been talking about buying the new ride -- a Tesla Model X -- but complained there was no time in her schedule to do the whole car shopping thing. Well, that's what friends are for, apparently ... 'cause TP did the dirty work for her. Or more likely, an assistant did it for him, for her.
Anyway ... Tiffany wins!
Tiff is known for being frugal ... her love of Groupon deals landed her a gig as their spokesperson, and she once said she'd never own a nice handbag till she could keep it full with as much cash as it was worth.
The Tesla Model X starts around $80k. No word on if she plans to fill it with that much dough.

Chris Brown My New SUV Puts Batmobile to Shame ... It's Also Bulletproof!!!
Move over, Bruce Wayne ... Chris Brown's rolling like a real-life Dark Knight in a customized SUV that makes the Batmobile look like a soccer mom's ride.
We're told CB dropped more than $350k for a Rezvani Tank -- a game-changer that, for starters, is bulletproof. We're sure Chris isn't looking to test this in the real world, but we're told the Tank can withstand multiple rounds from automatic weapons.
Now, for the serious Batman-like stuff. Chris' customized Tank features:
- Smoke screens to, literally, leave everyone in the dust
- Thermal night vision, viewable on a display screen
- Electric door handles to shock any approaching intruders
- Easily deployed defensive spike strips
Best of all -- even with all those hardcore toys -- we're told the whole rig is actually street legal! More than we can say for that other super whip ...
CB custom ordered the Tank several months ago, and just recently had it delivered.
He seems to LOVE the brand -- he also owns a 2015 Rezvani Beast.

Justin Bieber Special Delivery ... A $500k Lambo!!!
Justin Bieber's seeing red, but in this case it's a very good thing ... he got a brand new luxury whip dropped off at his luxury hotel.
JB's special delivery went down Friday at the Montage resort in Laguna Beach, CA, when a flatbed truck arrived with a brand new, custom Lamborghini Aventador ... with a price tag likely well over $500,000.
We're told the Biebs took some video and admired the flashy red sports car for a bit -- as did all the passersby -- before hopping in and taking the 730 horsepower ride for a test drive.
Hopefully Bieber didn't have to back the car into any tight spots or up any steep hills ... and we certainly hope this Lambo gets treated more kindly than his last one.
