Rich the Kid's not letting his recent beatdown by several armed robbers stop him from loading up on more ice ... because ya gotta keep flexin.

The rapper had jewelers Gavriel and Izzy from NYC Luxury make a house call to his L.A. pad this week, and they brought along over $2 mil worth of high-end watches, bracelets and chains.

We're told Rich -- who's still wearing a wrap on his hand from an injury suffered in last week's home invasion robbery -- dropped around $78,000 on a brand new two-tone Cuban link necklace.

Bold move.

We broke the story ... the rapper was hospitalized after masked men with guns entered the home of his GF, Tori Brixx, demanding cash and jewelry and attacked them.

LAPD hasn't made any arrests in their investigation so far.

Kim Kardashian West Returns to Paris First Time Since Robbery

Kim Kardashian West is back in Paris for the first time since her traumatizing 2016 robbery there ... and it's obvious it's still fresh in her mind.

Kim and Kanye were surrounded by their muscle -- and some fans and paps, of course -- on their way to the Louis Vuitton Menswear Spring/Summer show. It's Paris Fashion Week, so it's clear why Kim's there ... but still hanging over her is the petrifying heist.

TMZ broke the story ... Kim feared rape when masked men stormed into her 2-story apartment in October 2016 and zip tied her hands with plastic handcuffs. The masked men also made off with more than $10 million in jewelry. Kim vowed to tone it down ... and she's done that ever since. Notice she's not wearing jewelry.

EMOTIONAL REUNION

BTW ... it's a huge moment for Kanye too, who broke down in tears meeting up with a longtime friend, Virgil Abloh -- Louis Vuitton's new artistic director of menswear. They go way back, and Virgil even worked with Kanye before taking on his most prominent role yet ... becoming the first black artistic director in the company's 164-year history.

Ariana Grande & Pete Davidson Nothing to See Here ... Except This Giant Rock on Her Hand!!

Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande are battling over who's better at showing off -- Pete proudly parading around his smoking hot fiancée, or Ariana flaunting her massive engagement ring.

Pete and Ariana were arm-in-arm Monday in NYC -- shopping for furniture, btw -- and she made sure to keep her hand at the perfect tilt for photogs. Pretty obvious, she's thrilled with Pete's choice of ring.

TMZ broke the story ... Pete dropped $93k for the 3.03 carat diamond. As they say ... if ya got it, flaunt it -- especially when ya got 3 carats of it!

As for the furniture shopping? Ariana made it seem like they've already moved in together. We'd say that's awfully quick, but remember ... quick is how these 2 operate.

BIG TEAM, BIG RINGS

The Philadelphia Eagles got their diamond-studded Super Bowl rings at a massive party Thursday night with a very special guest performer ... Meek Mill!

The rapper -- along with Rick Ross -- busted out song after song while the players rocked out in the crowd -- a special moment because his "Dreams and Nightmares" song was the team's anthem.

During the set at Noto nightclub, Meek grabbed the mic and told the players, "If I ever had to say I had my best night in prison it was the day the Eagles won the f*cking Super Bowl."

The players loved it -- with guys like Alshon Jeffery, Zach Ertz, Corey Clement, LeGarrette Blount and Torrey Smith having the time of their lives. Lil Uzi Vert was also there!

As for the rings, they're dope -- 10-karat white gold with 219 diamonds and 17 rare green sapphires.

The 127 diamonds on the bezel represent the combined jersey numbers of the three players who touched the football during the Philly Special play -- Corey Clement (30), Trey Burton (88) and Nick Foles (9).

Cool, right?

There's also an underdog mask inscribed on the inside of the ring.

Congrats!!!

SOLID MOVE
TMZ.com

Joel McHale is so impressed by how much Pete Davidson spent on Ariana Grande's engagement ring ... he's lobbying for an 'SNL' gig. Jokingly. We think.

We got Joel at the Fortnite Pro-Am tournament near downtown L.A. -- he was paired with Markiplier, for you Fortnite heads. Anyway, we broke the Ariana-Pete engagement news to Joel, and you gotta see his reaction. The $93k price tag for the ring really did blow him away.

Unlike some naysayers, Joel told us the couple's young age -- they're both 24 -- isn't necessarily a bad thing. He's got a great example.

Plus, he dropped a little wisdom about whether they should draw up a prenup.

Ariana Grande Pete Davidson Dropped Nearly $100k on Engagement Ring

Pete Davidson shelled out nearly $100,000 for the engagement ring on Ariana Grande's finger ... a piece that was custom made for the singer.

Sources close to the couple tell us Davidson picked up the $93,000 VVS1 clarity 3.03 carat diamond set in platinum last month. We're told it was specially made for Ariana and took nearly two weeks to complete.

The piece was commissioned by NYC jeweler Greg Yuna (aka Mr. Flawless).

As we reported ... Pete and Ariana got engaged after only dating a short time. Both had previously been involved in long-term relationships -- Ariana with Mac Miller, and Pete with Larry David's daughter, Cazzie.

Miller was busted for DUI last month, shortly after their split went public ... Ariana tweeted hours after the arrest, saying, "Pls take care of yourself."

As for the newly engaged couple ... they took their celebrations to Disneyland Monday.

Offset Stolen Chain Case Closed ... Met Gala Jewelry Returned

Offset's $150,000 diamond-studded chain is back where it belongs -- around his neck -- so police have officially closed the book on the once-missing bling ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us NYPD wrapped up its grand larceny investigation into Offset's chain, which allegedly got jacked while he was in town last month for the Met Gala. We're told cops saw Offset post a video showing the chain back in his possession, and that led them to consider the matter resolved. Sources say police believe the chain was returned.

The Migos rapper posted the video of the necklace safely around his neck, less than a week after the theft was reported. Offset bragged, "Still got my s**t. Come on, ya'll know better than that."

We broke the story ... Offset's chain was allegedly stolen from his NYC hotel room sometime after the Gala. Someone in his camp filed a police report, saying the hardware was worth $150k.

Cops say no suspects were ID'd and no arrests were made. It's unclear how Offset got the bling back.

Drew Brees Admitted He's 'Cash Poor' ... Jeweler Claims

The jeweler being sued by Drew Brees claims the QB is trying to shake him down because he's "cash poor" and needs the money ... this according to new court docs obtained by TMZ Sports.

We broke the story ... Brees is suing Vahid Moradi claiming the jeweler ripped him off several times over the years on several high priced pieces, finessing Brees out of millions.

The jeweler says Brees has no one to blame but himself because the QB tried to offload the items before they had time to appreciate, including a 4.09 carat blue diamond he bought for $8 mil, which he later claimed was only worth less than $4 mil.

Now, the jeweler has filed new court docs saying Brees threatened to ruin his reputation unless he paid Drew $1 MILLION a year for 7 straight years.

He also claims Brees -- who's made more than $194 MILLION in his NFL career -- admitted he was "cash poor" and was "in need of immediate cash."

The jeweler believes Drew was acting "irrationally" when he made the threats out of fear he wouldn't be able to recoup the cash from the jewelry he had originally purchased from Moradi.

They didn't get the silver, so the Vegas Knights will settle for gold ...

TMZ Sports has learned celebrity jeweler Boodaddy Diamonds is hooking up every single player on the Vegas team with a special gold pendant in honor of making the Stanley Cup Finals.

Yeah, we know ... they didn't win -- but the guys became the first expansion team in NHL history to get to the final round of the playoffs.

Boodaddy tells TMZ Sports he's incredibly impressed and wants to be a part of history so he designed a special gold pendant just for the team -- and he's giving it to them for free.

"It's definitely not gonna be cheap but I'll take care of it."

Boodaddy isn't from Vegas -- he's from Florida -- but says he spends a lot of time in Sin City, and understands what the team now means to the locals and hockey fans around the world.

Lil Pump Charlie Sheen's My New Homie ... Bust Down Watch Included!

LOOK AT MY WRIST SHEEN, CHYEA!

Lil Pump is handing out bust down watches like the Cavaliers are handing over games to the Warriors ... and the latest guy to get one is Charlie Sheen.

Pump recruited Sheen for his latest music video shoot and while the pairing might seem random, it's actually not once you consider it's for a song called "Drug Addict."

Sheen's struggle with drugs has not exactly flown under the radar, but from the looks of the footage on the set, Sheen is looking great. Here's a scary thought though ... he's playing a doctor.

Pump courted Sheen for the video with a ton of cash a couple weeks ago. Unclear if Pump actually forked over the dough for the cameo along with the flashy timepiece.

As for the watch ... it's covered in diamonds, just like the ones Pump gifted to his crew last month.

Floyd Mayweather Praises Son for Graduating High School ... I Never Did

Floyd Mayweather says he's super proud of his son, Koraun, for graduating high school this week ... since it's something he was never able to accomplish himself.

The 18-year-old just got his diploma from West Ranch High School in Stevenson Ranch, California ... and Floyd was right by his side to celebrate the big moment.

"I'm so proud of my son for doing something that I didn’t do, and that’s graduate high school," Mayweather said.

"When I️ was his age I️ dropped out of school and followed my dream of boxing to take my family out of poverty!!"

Koraun posted too ... captioning, "Thank you to my parents for motivating me throughout this journey."

Looks like Floyd came bearing gifts ... check out the kid's shiny gold necklace!!!

VISINE FOR THE ICE-ING
ZoFrost

Rae Sremmurd rapper Slim Jxmmi's problem isn't double vision, it's diamond vision ... but that'll happen when you ice out 2 high-priced watches and turn them into eyewear.

Slim got all 'Mad Max' on his timepieces by combining them to make what we imagine is probably the first ever pair of watch-goggles.

Slim gave his Audemars and Rolex Yacht-Master watches -- more than $50k each -- to Houston celebrity jeweler ZoFrost, and told him to go to town.

It's a cool idea for those who don't wanna see, but definitely want to be seen.

With the diamonds and the connecting Dior strap, we're told the end product's worth about $125k. Best of all, the whole process is reversible -- just in case Slim wants the watches back on his wrists.

HOT ICE
TMZ.com

Lil Pump is sharing his wealth, in the iciest way possible -- snapping up bust down watches for his whole crew ... 'cause that's what you do when you're dripping in half a mil.

We spotted Pump at Avianne & Co jewelers Wednesday night in NYC, and he and his crew happily flashed us their shiny new timepieces -- even his lawyer got one! If you're wondering what a bust down watch is ... it's essentially a watch covered in diamonds.

So, yeah ... not cheap.

Pump reportedly inked an $8 million recording deal in March, so he's got plenty of money to toss around. He admitted ... his days with one dollar bills in his pockets are behind him now -- with one major exception.

Offset's Crew Cops Know Who Assaulted Autograph Hound ... All Because of a Stolen Chain!!!

THE BEATDOWN
SplashNews.com

The 3 men who beat the crap out of an aggressive Cardi B autograph seeker have been ID'd by cops and TMZ's learned they're now persons of interest.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the guys are in Offset's crew, but when cops called neither the rapper nor his famous -- and very preggo -- fiancée were cooperating. Investigators had their luck quickly turn ... and it had everything to do with Offset's chain getting stolen from his hotel room.

We're told investigators in that case wanted a list of names of authorized people coming in and out of the Migos rapper's room. When they got that list, investigators handed it to cops handling the assault case. Those cops ran background checks on the suspects, checked surveillance and cross-checked the names on social media.

Sources tell us cops struck gold and found images that matched the same gear they were wearing in the assault captured on camera. We're told the 3 men are currently in Georgia. They're not officially suspects  ... at least not yet.

As we first reported ... the autograph seeker has sued Cardi B and Offset alleging their hired muscle is responsible for the attack.

We reached out to an NYPD spokesperson who had no comment.

Offset Stolen Chain is Loaded with 60 Giant Diamonds!

TMZ got a close look at Offset's $150k chain that was swiped from his NYC penthouse suite, and when this many diamonds go missing ... ya gotta feel for the guy.

As we previously reported, the bling was stolen sometime Tuesday evening from the Migos rapper's room at SIXTY LES, a hotel in the lower east side. It was reportedly last seen on a coffee table in the room before it went missing.

It appears to be the short one, nearest to his neck, that he wore when he went to Monday night's Met Gala. It's about 60 big diamonds set in gold. It looks like it was the only ice that was jacked at the time.

NYPD is still investigating and using surveillance footage to track down the culprit.

Offset might not want to hear it, but probably a good time to start using the in-room safe.

SNACK ATTACK
TMZ.com

Rich the Kid doesn't seem too worried about flaunting his wealth while other rappers are getting their chains snatched ... because he's super distracted by pizza and ice cream.

We caught RTK in his brand spankin' new Maybach in Bev Hills Wednesday and wanted to know if he's beefed up security since Offset got his $150k chain stolen out of his hotel room.

Rich was wearing a few around his neck, but the only heavy artillery he admitted to stashing is loaded with dairy. He's livin' the dream, man.
