2024 Presidential Election

Afrobeats megastar Davido has some words for Black Americans who think the grass is greener in the African pastures ... it ain't, and let him tell ya, you're gonna be drowning in oil!!!

Davido was a recent guest on "The Big Homies House" podcast, where he ripped the notion of Black people, especially those upset over the Presidential election, fleeing for the Motherland, especially his own beloved Nigeria.

“It’s not cool back home…The economy now is in shambles,” Davido complained to host Big Homie Kodaq, and pointed out how African citizens are being reamed ... buying the homegrown oil for more than the people who get it imported!!!

7:50 AM PT -- Thursday morning, about 9 hours after Elon Musk's post, Jeff Bezos responded underneath with his own tweet ... "Nope. 100% not true."

Elon Musk took a shot at Jeff Bezos, calling him out for supposedly predicting -- wrongly, we may add -- that Donald Trump would lose the presidential election to Kamala Harris.

On Wednesday night, Musk hopped on his social media platform, X, writing, “Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that @realDonaldTrump would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock.”

Clearly, Musk was referring to the stock value of his companies, Tesla and SpaceX, plunging if Trump had lost to Harris, but, of course, that didn't happen. Trump walloped Harris in the election and now he's about to take the reins again at the White House for his second term.

Senator Ted Cruz is taking shots at Hollywood ... calling the industry's brightest stars "out of touch" with what America actually wants.

Photogs caught up with the Texas politician outside the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport in Washington, D.C. -- where he encouraged Tinseltown's biggest names, many of whom are Democrats, to take a closer look at the Republican party ... claiming they actually represent what people want.

As Senator Cruz put it ... the Democratic party saw a big loss on election night as they don't "actually understand what working people are like."

Michael Moore is blasting Americans as a collective ... saying electing Donald Trump is the latest in a laundry list of problematic behavior -- and the country's populace is inherently bad.

The controversial filmmaker took to his website to share his thoughts on the most recent election ... and, he let American society have it -- saying past atrocities like slavery and the genocide of Native Americans have led directly to installing a convicted felon and alleged rapist as the next POTUS.

Moore also sees problems with Kamala Harris' campaign ... admitting they cheered when people like Dick Cheney -- someone Moore refers to as a war criminal -- endorsed her and pointing out the Biden admin's support for the War in Gaza certainly didn't help.

Bill Maher could NOT hide his contempt for progressives -- aka the left wing -- in the Democratic Party, explaining to them the right wing does not have a monopoly on stupid.

The 'Real Time' host excoriated Democrats for, on the one hand, attacking Trump voters as clueless and dumb, when they are exactly the same.

Bill points to a gaggle of missteps -- watch the video -- and then makes his overarching point. The left-wing sees almost every issue through the lens of race and sex, yet the people they say they're supporting -- Blacks, Latinos, women, etc -- are not on board. It's sorta like, sit back and let us protect you because we know best. Well, Bill says, well, no you don't.

Donald Trump's presidential win is going to make life near his properties more difficult for neighboring residents ... but, that won't stop them from buying to be close to the prez-elect, TMZ has learned.

We spoke to Senada Adzem -- the former VP of marketing for Trump International in NY and a real estate agent in Palm Beach -- and asked her how the Secret Service presence around Mar-a-Lago may impact potential homebuyers.

Adzem doesn't mince words ... saying tight security around Mar-a-Lago over the next 4 years will basically be a serious pain in the ass -- but people who live there just won't care.

Jon Jones dominated Stipe Miocic in the main event of 309 ... and then shouted out President Trump during his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan.

Bones even started a "USA! USA!" chant ... and hit Trump's famous dance move, before exiting the Octagon and talking to the president-elect.

The UFC has no shortage of star power at its events -- in and out of the Octagon -- so, who's gotten the loudest pop from the crowd?!

Dana White has an answer.

"When you think about fighter walkouts, whenever a fighter walks out to the [Octagon] — I mean, the two biggest that actually shake the arena are President Trump and Conor McGregor, two of the biggest fight walkouts ever," the UFC boss told Babcock on the TMZ Sports TV show (airs nightly on FS1).

Cheryl Hines is sending a clear message -- I got you, Bobby -- based on the pics of her celebrating her hubby Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at Mar-a-Lago, months after saying Donald Trump was a thorny issue in their marriage.

Cheryl, a lifelong vocal Democrat, was happy and smiling Thursday night during the president-elect's big bash for his cabinet nominees, including RFK Jr. ... his pick for Health and Human Services Secretary.

This was the first time the couple's been seen together at a Trump event since the election, but sources with direct knowledge tell us she's been onboard all along. We're told RFK Jr. went to Mar-a-Lago the day after Trump's landslide victory, and Cheryl was with him as DT offered the HHS Sec. position.

Megyn Kelly didn’t hold back ... calling actress Rachel Zegler "a pig" after the "Snow White" star made a fiery Instagram post wishing Trump supporters would "never know peace" post-election.

Rachel's since apologized following the backlash ... but the conservative commentator ripped into her on SiriusXM Thursday, while calling for Disney to redo their entire live-action remake of the classic cartoon, which has already been filmed with Zegler in the lead role.

Megyn fumed, "Picture this, a Broadway actress who said, 'F Biden supporters, may Biden and Kamala never know peace.' That person would be fired so fast it would make your head spin."

President-elect Donald Trump visited the White House Wednesday morning at the invitation of President Joe Biden, and the 2 sat down together in the Oval Office. Trump thanked Biden for making this transition one of the smoothest ever, so far.

After they sat down, Trump and Biden smiled for the cameras -- and were hit with a cacophony of shouted questions directed at the pair. Secret Service and staffers then ushered the yelling reporters out of the Oval Office without having any of their questions answered.

The invitational meeting is traditionally held whenever a new POTUS is elected -- although Trump didn't extend an invite to Biden as he refused to accept the 2020 election results. Despite their prior war of words, Obama invited Trump in 2016, days after Trump defeated Hillary Clinton.

Pharrell Williams criticized music stars on both sides of the aisle campaigning for their presidential picks ahead of the election ... but is flat-out denying he was gunning at Taylor Swift!!!

The superproducer-turned-Louis Vuitton fashion czar made the political slam a week after TS publicly endorsed Kamala Harris, naturally angering the Swifties.

In a new interview with GQ, Pharrell laughed off the backlash ... "I love Taylor. She knows that."

Dean Cain is happy Taylor Swift fans turned out to not be Donald Trump's kryptonite ... because Taylor's endorsement didn't put Kamala Harris in the White House.

The 'Superman' star tell TMZ ... he's pumped Swifties made no difference at the ballot box and in the end "common sense prevailed" in electing Trump president.

Dean says voters aren't swayed as much by celebrity endorsements as perhaps they were in the past ... and he says the proof is in the pudding this election season.

Yung Joc claims Kamala Harris' campaign gassed him up to the brink of letting him perform at a Democratic rally -- only to snatch away the opportunity because he used Donald Trump as a metaphor in his hit song!!!

The "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" star made the confession on "Way Up With Angela Yee" on Tuesday while lamenting over the past election.

Joc says he was asked to perform his 2006 multi-platinum track "It's Goin Down" to rally the troops.

Joe Rogan just spilled some serious next-level insider info ... saying Elon Musk knew hours before the official results dropped that Donald Trump had already won the election.

On his podcast, Rogan revealed Musk had supposedly developed a custom app on his phone that gave him real-time vote counts -- so he basically knew Trump had won 4 hours before anyone else called it.

Rogan wasn't entirely claiming it as fact ... he said the info came from Dana White, who told him Elon had said, "I'm leaving. It's over. Donald won" -- all while the results were still rolling in. Dana and Elon were both hanging out with Trump at Mar-a-Lago in Florida on the night of the election.

The comedian who caught hell for his "garbage" joke about Puerto Rico has released his post-speech reaction, recorded the night after his appearance at Madison Square Garden.

In an episode of "Kill Tony," the podcast and live show hosted by Tony Hinchcliffe, he's onstage performing ... and he goes into a bit about his freshly controversial set from the night before.

You'll recall ... at a Donald Trump rally at Madison Square Garden in NYC on October 27, Hinchcliffe was warming up the crowd -- one of his jokes was, "I don't know if you know this, but there's literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it's called Puerto Rico."
