A Frontier Airlines plane caught fire and its tires reportedly blew out as it landed in Nevada over the weekend -- but, miraculously, no one was injured.

The commercial flight carrying 190 passengers took off from San Diego on Saturday and flew to Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas.

As the jet made its final approach to the runway, flames erupted underneath the fuselage, causing the cockpit to be consumed by smoke and the pilots to report there was an emergency.

Then came the plane's "hard landing," during which the "tires blew," according to CNN.

Video posted to "X" captured the flaming airliner rolling down the runaway until it came to a stop, leaving a trail of heavy smoke.

Clark County Fire Department trucks responded and sprayed the plane with water, putting out the flames.

All the passengers and flight crew escaped without so much as a scratch and were safely brought to the gate area.

A Spirit Airlines flight appeared to lose its "spirit" when two women claimed they were booted by a male flight attendant -- for the crime of wearing crop tops.

Friends Teresa and Tara say they boarded their LA-to-New Orleans flight in pants and sweaters, but when they stripped down to cool off, that’s when the male flight attendant allegedly singled them out.

The women told DailyMail.com they asked the male attendant what dress code rule they broke, but things quickly escalated. Before they knew it, they were kicked off the plane.

Yung Miami found herself in a slippery situation when a fan asked her for an autograph on a questionable item: a bottle of baby oil!

Diddy’s ex-GF Yung Miami was leaving Saucy Santana's birthday bash at Atlanta's Opium Nightclub on Friday night when a TikToker cheekily asked if she could sign a bottle of baby oil -- all captured in a clip doing the rounds online.

You can tell Yung Miami was not impressed -- she rolled the window up and went on with her night, while a man outside, likely security, stepped in, telling the fan to keep it moving.

The TikToker tells TMZ he figured YM would be at the party, and sure enough, she was -- signing photos and items for fans. But when he pulled out the baby oil and asked for her autograph, things took a turn and she beat it real fast.

As TMZ previously reported, court docs unsealed after Diddy’s arrest reveal that 1,000 bottles of baby oil were seized during March raids at his Miami and LA homes -- so no wonder Yung Miami wasn’t feeling that autograph request!

Talk about a heavy topic for some late-night laughs ... "Saturday Night Live" went all in on Diddy, who’s currently behind bars on charges related to racketeering, sex trafficking and other serious crimes.

On the show's "Weekend Update" segment, Michael Che quipped alongside a pic of Diddy, “It was reported that the U.S. added 245,000 new jobs. Unfortunately, they were all 'Diddy accusers.'”

The audience erupted in laughter as Michael kept it rolling, saying, "It was announced that Sean ‘P Diddy’ Combs’ sex trafficking case has been assigned to a new judge. One that Diddy hopes is cool with rapes."

Megan Thee Stallion isn’t just about the grind -- she’s all about the results ... 'cause she’s been hyping her workout routine, and the results speak for themselves.

The rapper's followers got their IG feeds sizzling Sunday with her latest night out, where she dropped a fire collection of pics looking downright incredible.

Megan was killing it in a barely-buttoned black shirt, giving just enough to hold things in place, while flaunting her toned abs. She topped it off with some cut-out "M" branded pants that showed she’s all about that fit life!

Cardi B and Offset both wanted a night out on the town ... and hit a speed bump when they ended up at the same nightclub.

But, eyewitnesses tell us things took a turn when the DJ gave a shoutout to Offset being in the house ... which apparently startled Cardi.

We're told the exes didn’t arrive or leave together, nor did they hang out during their time at the club. In fact, their overlap was short.
