50 Cent is no longer cool with Omari Hardwick, the former face of his "POWER" universe ... simply put, he can't associate himself with all the diva behavior!!!

"The Breakfast Club" quizzed 50 about the current standing of his relationship after Omari insinuated over the summer the Diamond-selling rapper was the reason his Starz paychecks weren't anything to brag over!!!

The 2024 CFDA Awards has given the Met Gala a run for its money ... with the number of A-listers and fashionable looks that turned out for the fashionable event Monday evening.

For instance, Blake Lively dazzled in a classic Old-Hollywood look, rocking an all-white body-hugging dress and her blonde waves down in a loose curl. This was certainly a surprising choice ... given the traditional "no white after Labor Day" style rule and all.

Don’t expect to see Ian Somerhalder onscreen again any time soon -- he's put acting on the back burner for now, with no plans to jump back in.

Ian did pause a bit on those thoughts, though -- he mentioned to PEOPLE he recently regained the rights to "V Wars," the 2019 sci-fi series he and Nikki starred in together ... but he's not quite sure how they'd bring it back to life in the form of another show.

Sunny Hostin is putting Donald Trump on blast ... after he did not condemn one comedian's anti-Puerto Rico rhetoric at his rally over the weekend.

ICYMI ... comedian Tony Hinchcliffe spoke at the Republican nominee's rally at Madison Square Garden in NYC Sunday, where he called the U.S. territory "a floating island of garbage."

Madeline, one of Matthew's sisters, made the point that Matthew might not have even been aware he had relapsed. He was coming off a stretch of sobriety during and after his book tour, and was taking ketamine for therapeutic purposes. Perry then started getting ketamine on the black market and was taking massive doses on his own.

Bill Maher has already predicted Kamala Harris will win the election, but he's clearly getting nervous because he thinks Harris is ignoring what she needs to do to close the deal.

The 'Real Time' host called what she needs a "Sister Souljah" moment. You may have read or recall ... after the L.A. Riots in 1992, Sister Souljah said, "If there are any good white people, I haven't met them," followed by, "If Black people kill Black people everyday, why not have a week and kill white people?"

Bill says -- and he's right -- Clinton seized the moment and rebuked the rapper, and he was viewed as courageous for taking a stage against someone under his tent. As Bill put it, it was an easy win and voters responded.
